There was only one line on the chat interface. After the request was accepted, Bai Ye did not say anything.
Qi Yuji, who had received the photo, was furious. She called Qi Yunxiao.
"Brother, did you see Xing Xing's photo?"
"Yes," Qi Yunxiao asked, "What's wrong?"
"The furniture in that shabby house is from the 90s. Can Xing Xing get used to living there?!"
Qi Yunxiao sighed. "If he can't get used to it, try your best to get used to it. Boys have to go out and experience some hardships. Otherwise, what if something happens in the future?"
Qi Yuji pursed her lips. Qi Yunxiao was right. She could not always protect her brother.
However, she still felt sorry for him. She thought for a while and said, "Let's invest some money in Mai Mang. Xing Xing can't suffer for nothing. Let Mai Mang edit more scenes for him when she's editing."
"You don't need to remind me," Qi Yunxiao said calmly. "I've already done it.
Why do you think I bought the fourth trending topic? "
Qi Yuji thought for a moment and suddenly understood. "Oh … I know!
With Xing Xing's fame, there must be someone behind him to get to the fourth trending topic.
After Mai Mang realizes it, she will take care of Xing Xing more. Maybe she will release more clips of Xing Xing so that we can buy more trending topics! "
Qi Yunxiao smiled. "That's right. Xing Xing doesn't want us to help him behind his back. We can only think of other ways."
Just as Qi Yunxiao had expected, after being in the entertainment industry for so many years, the director and producer were all experienced. They guessed that Qi Xingchen had a backer and treated him better.
Under the trap that Qi Xingchen had dug for the director, the guests had a comfortable three days.
During the day, they strolled around the village and chatted. At night, in order to save money, they went to the farmer's house to buy vegetables and cook.
Among them, only Luo Qiuman and Tao Tao knew how to cook. Zhang Yunfei had become famous early in his career, so he always had an assistant to serve him.
Liu Ziyu's ten fingers did not do any household chores, and Bai Ye was even more so. His father was in politics and his mother was in business. He was like a young master who did not differentiate between the five grains.
Seeing that Luo Qiuman had to cook for two days, Qi Xingchen felt guilty and volunteered. "Sister Qiuman, let me cook tonight...."
"You can cook at such a young age?" Luo Qiuman didn't believe it.
Qi Xingchen smiled. "It's not delicious, but it can be cooked."
After saying that, Qi Xingchen picked up the bags and walked out. Bai Ye happened to come in from outside and saw him dragging a few bags. "Where are you going?"
Qi Xingchen: "Grocery shopping."
"Can you do it by yourself?"
"… No." Qi Xingchen rolled his eyes and said pitifully, "Come with me, Senior Bai."
For the past two days, Qi Xingchen had been keeping an eye on the male and female protagonists. Wherever Bai Ye was, he would be there.
Fortunately, the male protagonist did not have any obvious feelings for the female protagonist. Or perhaps, the male protagonist was already moved, but did not show it.
So if he wanted to go out now, he had to drag Bai Ye with him.
What if the male and female protagonists suddenly had a spark of love when he was not around?
.... Bai Ye was not surprised by Qi Xingchen's request. He took all the bags from him and led the way out.
When they reached a farmer's house, Qi Xingchen called him. "Senior."
............ Bai Ye nodded.
"The carrots here are good. Let's go in and take a look."
The farmer and his wife were leaning against a tree and chatting. Qi Xingchen greeted them in Danish. Then, he asked in English, "How much are your carrots?"
The farmer replied in Danish.
Qi Xingchen only knew a few simple Danish words and could not understand the meaning. He whispered to Bai Ye, "What are they talking about?"
"Their carrots are for their own consumption. They are not for sale."
"Oh." Qi Xingchen said, "Tell him you only want a few carrots. Ask him to help us distribute them."
Bai Ye's face turned cold. He translated according to Qi Xingchen's instructions.
The farmer and his wife looked at each other and did not speak.
They had been growing their own vegetables all these years and had never sold them.
Qi Xingchen saw their hesitation. He put his hands together and said, "The carrots in your yard are the cutest and freshest. If you are willing to sell me a few …"
He pointed at Bai Ye and said, "I'll ask him to sing a song for you.
He is a big star in China. He is very famous! "
Bai Ye was stunned. He did not expect that he would be sold like a melon in a basket by fans.
Qi Xingchen did not notice and continued to sell his melon. "Look at his body. If you don't like it, I'll ask him to dance for you."
"…" Bai Ye whispered, "Why don't you dance?"
"Because I'm not good at dancing!" Qi Xingchen said confidently.
The cameraman and the assistant burst into laughter. It was the first time the farmer and his wife had heard someone use the word "cute" to describe carrots. They were also amused by Qi Xingchen.
The wife dug out more than ten carrots and threw them into the basket. She handed it to Qi Xingchen and said, "Here you go."
Qi Xingchen was very happy that he had achieved his goal. "How much is it?"
"It's free. I'll give it to you," the farmer said. "He's so beautiful. He matches these cute carrots perfectly."
"He" was naturally referring to Bai Ye. Qi Xingchen sighed in satisfaction.
He thanked the farmer and his wife and hummed a song as he walked to the next house.
As he walked, he bragged to the camera, "It was so wise of me to ask Senior Bai to come out!
Otherwise, how could I get so many free carrots? "
So in the eyes of his fans, he was only worth a basket of cute carrots?
With the help of Bai Guagua, Qi Xingchen successfully swindled a lot of fresh vegetables.
Luo Qiuman wanted to stay in the kitchen to help, but Qi Xingchen pushed her out. "Sister Qiuman, you've been tired for two days. Try my cooking today."
"Alright. Can you make it yourself?"
"Don't worry, no problem."
There were nearly 20 people in the acrobatic troupe. After the decline of acrobatics, in order to save unnecessary expenses, everyone took turns to cook every day.
When he was eight or nine years old and couldn't even memorize the 300 Tang poems, he could already cut two potatoes in five minutes.
With the knife flying, it didn't take long for him to finish all the vegetables.
An hour later, four dishes and a soup enough for six people were on the table.
The guests were amazed. Only Bai Ye looked at the table and didn't say anything.
To be able to cook so many dishes at such a young age, this little fan … What on earth had he experienced?
Qi Xingchen only made home-cooked dishes, but under these conditions, it was quite good.
Everyone ate and chatted, and after they were full, they went back to their rooms.
When the room fell silent, Qi Xingchen thought of Bai Ye's profile picture.
He didn't feel sleepy at all. Afraid that he would disturb Zhang Yunfei, he put on his clothes and prepared to go to the yard to watch Xing Xing.
As he walked up the stairs, he heard some rustling in Tao Tao and Liu Ziyu's rooms, as if someone was looking for something.
It's so late. Are they still awake?
Qi Xingchen didn't understand girls, so he continued to walk.
Before he took the first step —
Suddenly, there was a scream of horror in the room.
At that moment, Qi Xingchen didn't think about anything else. He turned around and kicked Liu Ziyu's door open.
The room was dark, and the windows were wide open.
Under the moonlight, Liu Ziyu was kneeling on the bed and crawling desperately toward the door!
Behind her, beside the bedside table, stood a masked man. Judging by his size, he should be an adult.
Qi Xingchen immediately realized that they had been burglarized!
Seeing that someone had come in, Liu Ziyu shouted for help.
The burglar only wanted to steal something and leave, but he was shocked when he heard the sound. In a hurry, he grabbed Liu Ziyu's hair and dragged her back.
In a panic, he pulled out something from his pocket.
The moonlight flashed, and there was a dazzling silver light.
"Help me, I don't want to die!"
Liu Ziyu was dragged back by her hair. The pain and fear of the unknown made her legs tremble. She looked up and shouted at the door.
Then, she saw that it was Qi Xingchen. Her heart skipped a beat. There was only one thought left in her mind — it was over.
It didn't matter who it was, it couldn't be Qi Xingchen.
Because she had offended Qi Xingchen in the past two days.
The two of them had to cover the camera when they slept.
Qi Xingchen would definitely use this opportunity to take revenge on her. She would pretend that she didn't know what was going on and watch the burglar hurt her.
Then she would really be done for.
Liu Ziyu was scared and resentful. She gritted her teeth and prepared to be friendly with Qi Xingchen. After all, her life was more important.
However, before she could say anything, Qi Xingchen rushed over!
He kicked the burglar's arm that was holding Liu Ziyu!
"Ouch —" The burglar grimaced in pain and let go.
Liu Ziyu escaped from the clutches of the devil and scrambled off the bed.
The series of events seemed complicated, but in fact, it only took two minutes from Qi Xingchen rushing in to save Liu Ziyu.
Tao Tao, who was in the same room, quickly took Liu Ziyu. Zhang Yunfei, who was on the second floor, and Bai Ye, who was on the first floor, finally arrived at the scene.
With so many helpers, the burglar naturally didn't dare to stay any longer. He scolded Qi Xingchen in English and pushed Qi Xingchen away with all his might. Then, he took something from the bedside table and jumped out of the window to leave in a hurry.
Only the curtains were left fluttering in the wind.
"Xing Xing!" Zhang Yunfei turned on the light and looked at the empty courtyard. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Qi Xingchen covered his forearm and shook his head.
Zhang Yunfei said, "then you rest for a while. Bai Ye, help Zi Yu and Tao Tao get a glass of water to calm down. I'll go to the side and inform director Liu to call the police."
The director also rented a villa next to them as a temporary office and rest place.
The two courtyards were about ten meters apart. As Zhang Yunfei ran over, he checked to see if the burglar had left any traces.
Just as Zhang Yunfei said, Bai Ye went to the kitchen on the first floor to pour three glasses of warm water.
When he came back with the water, he found that Qi Xingchen wasn't in the room.
"Where is he?" Bai Ye asked.
Tao Tao comforted Liu Ziyu and answered, "he went back to his room."
Bai Ye frowned. The image of Qi Xingchen covering his forearm flashed across his eyes.
Not long after, Zhang Yunfei came back. Bai Ye saw that the two girls had returned to normal. He handed them to Zhang Yunfei and went out with his coat.
Forty minutes later, Qi Xingchen finished his second shower of the night and put on his t-shirt with difficulty with one hand. His phone buzzed twice.
Qi Xingchen's hand that was tugging at his clothes stopped in place. Why did Bai Ye ask if he was asleep?
Could it be that he wanted to ask about the situation at the time of the incident?
But Bai Ye didn't look like someone who liked to meddle in other people's business?
Qi Xingchen's arm was uncomfortable. In addition, he was very tired after the shower. He replied, [I've already laid down.]
This sentence clearly showed the meaning of "I want to sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow.".
Bai Ye shouldn't continue to interrogate him, right?
In the end, the other party replied instantly, [open the door.]
