This might be the first time that Fu Jinxiao felt guilty in front of his lover.

However, he was the Movie Emperor after all. Even in this kind of tight situation, where he lacked confidence in his heart, he would still not be a mess on the surface. He only let out a little helpless chuckle before saying, “Well, what I mean is, don’t compete with me.”

Shen Xingsui was short of breath. “You…”

Fu Jinxiao took out a keychain from his pocket – it was the chibi version of Shen Xingsui. The little guy was holding a cute little music score in one hand, and a pen in the other. Swaying on the chain like this, the little guy was unbelievably cute. 

Shen Xingsui was a little surprised. “Is this mine?”

Fu Jinxiao nodded.

Only then did Shen Xingsui realize that Fu Jinxiao might be collecting his merchandise. He felt helpless and curious at the same time, so he asked, “Have you really collected them all?”

Fu Jinxiao nodded.

Shen Xingsui felt a little joy jump out of his heart. He muttered, “I’m already here, why are you collecting so many?”  

The surrounding roads were noisy and lively.

From time to time, someone passed by them. There were the cheers of children, and the noise of the ending parade. The dusk’s dying embers fell on the two of them. With a warm smile gracing his lips, Fu Jinxiao whispered, “I think it’s very cute.”

It was a very simple sentence, but Shen Xingsui was taken aback for a moment. And then, it exploded like a small firework in his heart, all bright and gorgeous. As his face flushed, he felt like bliss spreading across all his body – it’s the unstoppable kind, and he knew that even his back flushed red now. 

Then, he didn’t pursue it anymore, and obediently followed Fu Jinxiao like a little wife.     

Sadly for the audience, this conversation was full of intelligible whispers, so all they could do was try their best to decipher them. 

[What did they say??] 

[Any lips-reading expert here?]

Now the time limit is up. Although the guests did not go well at the beginning, in the end they all still got at least one invitation card for the Fantasy Kingdom’s ball. 

The next day, the director led everyone onto a ferry.     

“The small island we are going to this time is an independent island with the most beautiful scenery here. This island was once dubbed as ‘Fairy Tale Island’ because it is the place where princes and princesses fall in love. At the highest point of the island, a castle was built, and that castle is where our ball will be held. Every year, all the elves and fairies would attend. It is said that the first couple to arrive there at dusk, when the bells toll at sunset, would be blessed by eternal happiness.”

One of the guests sighed dreamily, “That’s so romantic…” 

The director has cheated the guests many times in these episodes, and in the final season, he even dared to sprinkle a bit of romantic flair to spice things up. 

“Although everyone has received invitations, the Fantasy Kingdom is in trouble now, and the Dark Lord’s minions have also received invitations. They want to destroy this ball, and to prevent that, you all have to open the Moonlight Box before the dusk bell rings. The minions will not be able to enter the castle!”     

Shen Xingchen asked, “Then, where is this Moonlight Box?”

Seeing that he finally got to the point, the director replied, “The Moonlight Box is actually inside the castle. The medals in each of you are the key to opening it. There are ten medals in total, and none of them are missing.”

“Then it’s very simple,” Wen Shengge said, “As long as we all arrive at the palase before dusk, isn’t that all right?”

Everyone agreed.

However, according to the routines of the director, things are of course not that simple.

“The road to the Moonlight Box is very dangerous. The minions of the Dark Lord have been secretly looking for the warriors with the medal. Because their goal is the same as yours, they have blended among you all. So in order to protect the medal, I suggest that you act separately,” The director’s face became much heavier.

Shen Xingchen yelled, “A traitor? Again?!”

Teacher Tuya laughed, “I thought this wouldn’t be the case this episode, but lo and behold, this happens once again.” 

“Why didn’t you choose me as a traitor in these three episodes?” Shen Xingchen pointed his trembling hands at himself, and said with grief, “Director, you really don’t have any vision at all!” 

The others all laughed out loud when they heard Shen Xingchen’s outrage, and had a good time.

It might be the last episode, even if there was a traitor amongst them, none of them were nervous. Although everyone did not say it clearly, in fact, they were all serious and devoted to playing this game. 

After the staff announced the opening of the game, they handed over the map thoughtfully, “There are four open roads here, and you can go up the mountain with a maximum of four people per road.”

The guests also came over to discuss together and said, “I think this is the case at the moment. We don’t know who the traitor is. Now each of us all have medals, right? We gather at the inn in the middle after we have walked a certain distance, and if anyone loses their medals, then there is something wrong with their companions.” 

Everyone had no objections.

Only Fu Jinxiao pursed his lips, and said slowly, “What if their companion was actually killed, and they just pretended to be wearing a medal to deceive us?”

Everyone’s expressions froze.

Actor Fu was scheming and could always hit the heart of the problem directly.

Shen Xingsui said, “There will definitely be loopholes. Since they were robbed, it still will be something to note.” 

“I think so too,” Teacher Li nodded and said, “For now, let’s do this first. Let’s draw lots and divide into groups.”

This time the lottery had brand new partners for all of them: Shen Xingsui and Li Xu’an, Fu Jinxiao and Feng Fan, Shen Xingchen and Xu Qinke, Teacher Tuya and Wen Shengge, Ning Ze and Teacher Li.

Li Xu’an came over to shake hands and said with a smile, “Please advise me.”

Shen Xingsui shook hands.

The two walked together, and Li Xu’an pretended to be casual and asked, “Who do you think will be the Dark Lord’s minion, the traitor?” 

“I don’t know.”

Shen Xingsui sighed softly, “Hey, it’s all for entertainment, and we all have some level of acting abilities. For the previous two episodes, I didn’t guess it until the very last.” 

Li Xu’an smiled and said, “I think this time the program team should give someone who is more unexpected.”

Shen Xingsui looked at him sideways, “You have a guess?”

“I don’t know,” Li Xu’an shrugged his shoulders: “There is no basis for speculation yet.”

Shen Xingsui could only smile helplessly.

When they walked forward, they soon met a group of old ladies in fluffy skirts who looked weird. They were all blond, but they looked fairy-like, and they said, “Welcome to our Fairy Tale Island. We are elves living here, are you going to go up to the mountain to attend the ball?”

Shen Xingsui replied, “Yes.”

“Oh, that’s really great,” The old lady turned around, as if examining the two of them. She smiled softly and said, “You just need to accept a small test from us to pass.” 

This was a challenge to make sure the audience wouldn’t be bored. 

Shen Xingsui went into the hut in the forest and laid down. Several old ladies elves each took a feather tickle to tickle him everywhere. Shen Xingsui smiled throughout the process, but since his expression didn’t change from start to finish, it was considered a pass. 

When he came out, Li Xu’an asked him, “How do you keep from smiling?”

Shen Xingsui replied, “It’s nothing, just rely on patience, you just try to hold back and ignore it.”

The result was… unexpected. Li Xu’an was very ticklish, so after half a minute since he went in, there was an astonishing laughter coming from inside. It was a very free laughter, no idol burden at all. 

The audience in the live broadcast room were also amused:

[I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person, Li Xu’an~]

[Hahahaha, is he starting to snort? I can relate, honestly.] 

[Aren’t you curious about the difficulty? Why didn’t Shen Xingsui tell Li Xu’an some tricks when he came out?]

The elves outside came out and said regretfully, “Sorry, he failed our test and there is no way to move on.”

Li Xu’an’s face turned red from laughing, and when he came out, he said, “Suisui, I’m sorry, I couldn’t pass… The thing is, I’m too ticklish.” 

Shen Xingsui understood very well, he chuckled and said, “It’s okay, I know.”

Li Xu’an took off the medal on his body and said, “I can’t go on any longer, I hope you can bring the medal back to the castle for me, open the Moonlight Box, and maintain the peace of this Fantasy Kingdom.” 

Shen Xingsui took the medal and said, “Okay, don’t worry!”

He took the medal and continued to move forward, and finally arrived at the post station in a short time. There were ten1again, the author said “eight of them in total” where they clearly have listed ten guests QAQ I have to change it so it won’t be weird. of them at the beginning, and only four of them arrived at the post station – this meant that only one guest per road actually managed to pass. 

Teacher Tuya said, “So… we each have two medals now, and the other teammates failed to pass the test.”

Everyone else nodded.

Teacher Tuya simply suggested, “Then the four of us will go together. Because if we act separately, supposed that they got eliminated, there’s no way to open the Moonlight Box. If we’re together, at least we can ensure someone reaches the finish line.” 

Fu Jinxiao agreed with the suggestion, “No problem.”

The plan was good, but it wasn’t without a flaw. And as they said: if something can go wrong, it will go wrong. 

When everyone got closer to the castle, the appearance of the whole castle was revealed in front of everyone. It was a very majestic one, with spires reaching the sky. When they reached the forest on the foot of the castle, they encountered a new challenge. 

They met the seven dwarves as the gatekeeper. One of them asked, “If you are not the minions of the Dark Lord, you must know our names.” 

Tuya was taken aback, and went to Shen Xingsui in instinct, “Suisui, do you know the names of the seven dwarves?”

Shen Xing shook his head like a rattle, “It doesn’t seem to be written in the book!”

If they couldn’t find out their names, they couldn’t enter. Now that the dusk was only a a couple minutes left, they had a very limited time. 

With an idea in his heart, Tuya took Shen Xingsui’s hand and said, “There is a door in this wooden house. I will attract the attention of the dwarves for a while, so you take the opportunity to run out!” 

Shen Xingsui was very worried, “Then what about you?” 

Tuya decisively handed the two medals in her hand to Shen Xingsui, so that Shen Xingsui had four medals in his hand, “I didn’t like to read fairy tale books since I was a child, so I don’t know many stories. There is no way to pass this level, but your hope is much greater than mine, Suisui. You rush forward with these medals, open the Moonlight Box, and save us all!” 

Shen Xingsui’s mind moved slowly. He wanted to say something, but Tuya already pushed him out.

The teacher exclaimed, not taking a “no” as an answer, “Go!” 

Because of this order, Shen Xingsui ran towards the door quickly. Only the audience said with a bit of heartache:

[??Tuya!! You’re giving the medals to the traitor!!]

[Suisui, you have failed Yaya’s trust.]

[Wuwuu— the director really gave the traitor role for the most trustworthy person of the bunch.]

1again, the author said “eight of them in total” where they clearly have listed ten guests QAQ I have to change it so it won’t be weird.
