The comments section was in an uproar. After Xia Wei changed her clothes, she walked out of the room with a big suitcase. “Let’s go.”

Seeing Xia Wei walking towards the elevator, the filming team hurriedly said, “Miss Xia, the elevator seemed to be broken when we arrived…”

Xia Wei sized up the photographers and the huge camera equipment they brought suspiciously. “Then how did you guys come up just now?”

The leading photographer had a bad feeling. If Director Zhao had not said in the earpiece, “Because Xia Wei’s live-stream is extremely popular now, we have to create some gimmicks to attract more attention,” he wouldn’t have lied.

“Uh… It broke after we came up just now…” Even the photographer didn’t believe it himself!

“Oh.” Xia Wei looked enlightened. “Alright, then let’s take the stairs.”

[Xia Wei will definitely say that she can’t carry the stuff later! Hmph! She’s a scheming bitch!]

[The production team is really good at causing trouble! I like them!]

Just as the netizens and the filming team were waiting to see Xia Wei beg for mercy, Xia Wei picked up her suitcase with one hand and led the way.

She walked quickly without stopping.

The pitiful filming team behind her had to run with the heavy camera equipment. Soon, they were panting.

[How is Xia Wei so strong?!]

[She definitely didn’t put anything inside!]

Compared to the other guests’ live-streams, Xia Wei’s live-stream was much more lively. Surprises came one after another and attracted a lot of attention. For a moment, Xia Wei’s popularity actually surpassed that of the popular idol, Liu Shi.

Director Zhao, who had been sitting backstage and checking the data, thought of Chen Yuan’s “care” for Xia Wei, so he picked up the walkie-talkie and said something to the filming team.

A staff member squeezed towards Xia Wei from behind the filming team and said, “Miss Xia, let me help you!”

Xia Wei was puzzled. He looked more tired than her.

Xia Wei frowned. “Are you sure?”

Seeing that Xia Wei was unwilling to let him take it, the staff thought that there must be something fishy going on, so he said, “Put it down, Ms. Xia. I work out quite often!”

Xia Wei shrugged. “Alright then.”

Seeing that Xia Wei had finally relented, the staff smiled as he picked up the luggage on the ground.

The first time, he didn’t manage to lift it. The smile on his face stiffened a little and he was secretly shocked. It wasn’t that he didn’t use any strength just now. This box was really heavy!

The second time, the staff used all his strength and finally lifted the box, but he had just taken two steps when the suitcase fell to the ground again.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward. “Hahaha… I’m sorry, Ms. Xia. It seems that I’m not fit enough.”

He scratched his head. In an attempt to ease the awkward atmosphere, he shouted, “Ah Shi, help me…”

Ah Shi squeezed out of the photography team. As he walked towards the suitcase, he couldn’t help but feel contempt. However, the moment he took the suitcase, Ah Shi couldn’t smile anymore because he realized that… he couldn’t lift it either.

He turned around and called a few strong buddies over. If Xia Wei could move it, how could they not?

Their faces were flushed and their hands were bulging, but in the end, few of them could lift it. Even if they could, they could only take two steps.

The scene was extremely awkward.

“It’s been hard on everyone. Let me do it.” Xia Wei appeared at the right time to help them out.

With that, she picked up her suitcase and quickly went downstairs.

Ah Shi and the burly men felt their egos shatter.

As Director Zhao watched the situation on the big screen, the corners of his mouth twitched.

He had miscalculated. He thought that Xia Wei was setting up some kind of “tough girl” persona, but he didn’t expect it to be true!

The comment section was also full of amused comments.

[What kind of mysterious strength is this?!]

[Hahahahaha! The production team is shooting itself in the foot!]

[I suspect that the production team is in cahoots with Xia Wei! How can so many men be unable to carry it?!]
