"Both groups of aunties are now ready. When you go to Assistant Choi to collect the radishes, they will form a human wall to block your path. All we need to do is break through, grab the radishes, and quickly retreat. It’s a very simple task." Liu Zaishi, who had somehow procured a small megaphone, looked at the assembled crowd and said.

"Let me remind everyone one last time. The only thing you need to worry about is the burly men in wigs mixed in with the aunties." These burly aunties were all played by the on-site staff and the assistants of the show who enjoyed being on camera.

The most obvious one was Assistant Choi, who was playing a vegetable vendor. As the assistant of Big Brother Jung Jun-ho, Assistant Choi sometimes performed comedy even better than Jung Jun-ho himself.

At the sound of "Prepare" from Liu Zaishi, Assistant Choi picked up a megaphone, which was slightly larger than Liu Zaishi’s, and began to shout, "Alright, ladies, this is the last free radish giveaway of the day. Welcome to grab them!"

In an instant!

As soon as Assistant Choi finished speaking, the real and fake aunties on both sides surged forward, blocking the already small radish stand completely.

As the first one to set off, HaHa, who was not entirely clear that Assistant Choi’s words were the signal to start, was momentarily stunned. It wasn’t until the crowd behind him began to urge him on that he finally set off, several seconds late.

Thus, he could only face the already tightly packed human wall. The completely impassable scene before him left him momentarily helpless.

There was nothing he could do but push and shove with all his might, but his small stature made him no match for the burly men disguised as aunties at the back. He was like a decoration.

So, as the first one to set off, HaHa could only perform a bit of physical comedy before retreating in disappointment.

In response, HaHa, who had returned silently, knelt before Liu Zaishi, "Brother Zaishi, you lied. What do you mean by breaking through, grabbing the radishes, and retreating? This is not a simple task at all..."

"Perhaps I miscalculated. Now, the second contestant, Park Myung-soo, is ready..." Liu Zaishi admitted his mistake in a perfunctory manner and raised his megaphone again.

Unfortunately, the following Park Myung-soo, Liu Zaishi, Roh Hong-je, and Jung Hoon-doon all failed to bring back a single radish. With five members returning empty-handed, it was now Liu Zaitian’s turn.

"Zaitian, now you are our hope. You must succeed!" Looking at Liu Zaitian, who was already in the starting position, HaHa, recalling Liu Zaitian’s image as a 'hunter,' quickly encouraged him.

"No problem, everyone, watch my performance!" Liu Zaitian, after a quick hair toss and a flashy pose, said confidently.

After observing for so long, Liu Zaitian had discovered the key to success.

At this moment, Assistant Choi, following Liu Zaishi’s signal, picked up the megaphone and began his lines, "Ladies, this is the last free radish giveaway of the day. Welcome to grab them!"

Now!

As soon as Assistant Choi finished speaking, Liu Zaitian, who was already in position, instantly pushed off with his legs and sprinted forward.

The distance was only about six meters, but with Liu Zaitian’s mad acceleration, it finally...

Bang!

He still didn’t break through...⊙﹏⊙b汗~!

"Zaitian, keep going, push through! Keep going!" In this situation, which could be considered the best start among the group, HaHa, standing behind, shouted loudly as he watched Liu Zaitian’s body trying to squeeze through.

(I want to get in, but these aunties are just too strong!)

Trapped in the middle of a group of aunties, Liu Zaitian was on the verge of tears. Although he hadn’t made it to the innermost part, his early acceleration had already brought him to the middle of the crowd. However, this situation made his predicament even more miserable.

At this moment, Liu Zaitian felt at least six hands pinching and pulling at his body. It was obvious who these hands belonged to. However, Liu Zaitian couldn’t really push the aunties who had trapped him in the middle, so he could only raise his hands and use his body to push forward.

By this time, Liu Zaishi and the others standing behind had also noticed Liu Zaitian’s predicament. Seeing Liu Zaitian’s increasingly red face, they were both amused and puzzled. The fake aunties standing behind were completely ignoring Liu Zaitian.

"What?" Taking a step forward, HaHa, upon seeing Liu Zaitian’s current state, covered his face in disbelief, "How can you treat our Zaitian like this!" (Really, if you want to treat Zaitian like this, you should find a place where no one can see... What if the cameras catch it? O(╯□╰)o...)

HaHa shouted loudly but had no intention of going to 'rescue' Liu Zaitian. Instead, he stood aside, watching with great interest.

Finally, after what felt like half a century, the whistle sounded.

The game was over!

At this point, the aunties surrounding Liu Zaitian began to move back to their original positions, but as they left, they couldn’t resist giving Liu Zaitian one last pinch.

Faced with this absurd situation, Liu Zaitian’s face was as red as an apple.

(Humiliation... Humiliation... o(>_<)o)

Therefore, after all the aunties had left, Liu Zaitian quickly ran back to the host’s team.

"O(∩_∩)O~ It seems the aunties really love our Zaitian!" As a brother, Liu Zaishi could only comfort Liu Zaitian in this situation before continuing to host the show.

As for Liu Zaitian...

(Oh my God... I didn’t expect that even in a different world, the aunties would still be so crazy!)

In fact, this was because Liu Zaitian didn’t understand his influence among the aunties. As the younger brother of National MC Liu Zaishi, with a rare high level of education in the Korean entertainment industry, plus the self-entrepreneurship story exposed by Kim Sung-woo (to quell doubts, Liu Zaitian had provided Kim Sung-woo with some of his records from his time at Harvard, detailing his financial planning and manipulation), and his handsome face that outshone idols, combined with his consistently humble attitude, Liu Zaitian’s natural conditions were quite superior.

Kim Sung-woo, as the CEO of JS Entertainment, after several rounds of eliminations and selections, had a group of elite trainees, but none of them had grown into stars. Therefore, the only two real artists in JS Entertainment were Liu Zaitian and Liu Zaishi. As a National MC, Liu Zaishi didn’t need much promotion; countless offers and invitations would flood in. What he could use was just 'connections.'

Thus, the long-idle JS Entertainment publicity machine could only focus all its artist resources on Liu Zaitian.

However, as the true owner of JS Entertainment, Liu Zaitian had no interest in anything other than "Infinite Challenge." Faced with this situation, Kim Sung-woo could only helplessly promote Liu Zaitian based on his current image.

Due to many restrictions, after extensive research, Kim Sung-woo positioned Liu Zaitian as a 'National Younger Brother' and a 'National Son.' Once the direction was set, the entire JS Entertainment publicity team began to promote Liu Zaitian, who never took other jobs, under these titles.

Kim Sung-woo later came to terms with this. Since they weren’t short of money, he considered it a good opportunity for the long-idle publicity team to practice.

As for these matters, Liu Zaitian, who only occasionally remembered or when Park Hyo-min called him, would wander around the company, had never paid attention to them.

Therefore, he had no idea how high his popularity was among the Korean aunties.

PS: A member of the group named 'Once' gave me a suggestion, which I found reasonable, so I’m sharing it with everyone. It’s about adding more chapters. From tomorrow until the end of this month, for every 100 additional recommendation votes, I will add one more chapter. If I break my promise, another member named 'Pif' is ready to come after me in person. This is a formal notice!

The current number of recommendation votes is 3028, and I’m putting this in writing!
