When Qi Xingchen apologized to Zhou Yu and wanted to give Zhou Yu a gift, Qi Yuji was already there.
This was her younger brother whom she had doted on since he was a child. How could he be so humble?
And the person he was apologizing to didn't accept it!
Qi Yuji was already furious at that time. She held back from scolding Zhou Yu because she wanted to see if Zhou Yu really dared to accept her younger brother's gift.
In the end, not only did Dog Zhou accept it, but he also suspected that her younger brother bought fake goods!
Later, he even hit her younger brother!
He dared to hit her younger brother now. What would happen if he got married in the future?
She definitely couldn't bring such a man into the family!
The more Qi Yuji looked at her younger brother's bruised nose, the angrier she became. She ordered the bodyguards, "Strip him!"
The two bodyguards immediately rushed up.
Old Zeng, who had been watching from the side, didn't expect that the boy he had been with day and night was such a person. He was so angry that he rolled up his sleeves and followed the bodyguards to strip him!
Zhou Yu's eyes were blurred by the chili sauce and couldn't see clearly. When he heard Qi Yuji's voice, he panicked. "No!
Baby, listen to me. It's not like that!
I didn't want to dump you. I was just joking with this little bastard! "
"… Little bastard?" Qi Yuji almost fainted from anger. She stomped her feet. "Strip, strip him!"
"Yuji, baby, big baby … You, you let go of me!"
Unfortunately, no matter how Ren Zhouyu shouted, Qi Yuji didn't listen to him.
Five minutes later, Zhou Yu, who couldn't break free, was stripped down to his underwear by the two bodyguards and Old Zeng.
The scene was extremely uncomfortable. Qi Xingchen remembered that he was still on the live broadcast. He quickly turned around and ran back to put away his phone.
Qi Yuji made a "tsk" sound. "I actually bought this underwear for him. Brother Li, take it off too!"
.
Although the live broadcast was turned off, everything that had just happened had been recorded on the screen and in the memories of hundreds of thousands of viewers.
However, Qi Xingchen didn't have the time or the mood to look at her now. In his impression, Qi Yuji was a gentle and innocent girl who would cry for a long time when she was hurt in a relationship.
That was why he hadn't told her about Zhou Yu's face. He wanted to kill her with one blow, so that she wouldn't be tricked by Zhou Yu and get hurt repeatedly.
Who would have thought that she could rip off Zhou Yu's clothes so ruthlessly!
Originally, Qi Xingchen only wanted to force Zhou Yu to quit the entertainment industry and leave Qi Yuji.
Now, it seemed that this guy's naked body had been seen by the audience. It was no longer a problem that could be solved by quitting the entertainment industry.
His reputation would be ruined.
However, a green tea b * stard who deceived a girl's feelings wouldn't be pitied even if he went to hell. Qi Xingchen had no sympathy for him at all.
At most, he was afraid that he would scare Luo Qiuman with his naked body. Qi Xingchen stopped the bodyguards and didn't let them rip off his last fig leaf.
The situation gradually calmed down. Qi Xingchen saw that Zhou Yu was pressed to the ground by the bodyguards and couldn't move. He turned around and comforted Qi Yuji. "Sister, don't be angry. It's not worth it to be angry with him."
"No, he dared to hit you just now. Today, I must … No, Xing Xing, what did you call me just now?"
Qi Xingchen: "…"
"You called me Sister?" Qi Yuji jumped three feet high in joy. "You called me Sister. Xing Xing called me Sister!"
"You haven't called me Sister since you were in junior high …" Qi Yuji's eyes turned red as she spoke. "Xing Xing, do you know how long I've been waiting for you to say this?"
Qi Xingchen looked at the girl in front of him who was a head shorter than him. When Qi Yuji rushed up just now, every word she said was to blame Zhou Yu for hitting him. She didn't mention anything about cheating money and feelings.
He was just punched. Qi Yuji, who was in this relationship, was the biggest victim.
However, when the incident happened, Qi Yuji completely forgot about him and put him first.
What a selfless family.
Qi Xingchen subconsciously called out, "Sister."
Zhou Yu was still hugging his body and howling in pain. He didn't hear the conversation.
It wasn't right to stand in the sun all the time. It was immoral. Qi Xingchen looked around and said, "Let's go back first."
Qi Yuji didn't force him. With tears in her eyes, she said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll listen to you!"
Qi Xingchen brought Qi Yuji to Old Tie's house. There were surveillance cameras in Zeng Er's yard. If it wasn't necessary, Qi Xingchen didn't want Qi Yuji to be exposed to the cameras too much.
Old Tie and Zeng Er lived next door. Qi Yuji kept crying because of "Sister," which made Qi Xingchen scratch his head.
It was only when he gave her the gift he bought in Denmark that the thunderstorm turned into a sunny day.
Qi Yuji held the bag and played with it. She kicked Zhou Yu, whose hands were tied behind his back, with the tip of her shoe. "How do I deal with him?
I must have been blind. Otherwise, we wouldn't be in so much trouble now. "
How to deal with him … This was a tricky problem.
Qi Xingchen frowned. Suddenly, the phone rang. It was Director Zhao.
Without guessing, Qi Xingchen knew that the news of Qi Yuji tearing the scumbag apart had spread. He ordered the bodyguards to take care of Qi Yuji and rushed back to the Zeng residence.
Director Zhao first scolded him to his face. After that, he threw the cigarette box and opened Weibo.
Qi Xingchen shamelessly went over to take a look. The video of his livestream was first shared by "Xing Guang" and "Night Sky".
Then, seeing such a beautiful girl tearing apart the scumbag so valiantly, the netizens of "Xing Guang" and "Night Sky" also shared it like crazy. Just like that, the video went viral.
Most importantly, there were millions of scumbags. Countless girls had been hurt by them.
But how many of these victims could seek justice for themselves like Qi Yuji?
How many of them were hurt so badly that they could only lick their wounds in the middle of the night?
Qi Yuji's actions were very satisfying.
Director Zhao opened the comment section.
[Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
I haven't felt this good in a long time!]
[I met scumbags like him in university. Unfortunately, I was too young and not as good as the beautiful sister.
If I meet him again, I just want to say that scumbags should walk at least 300 yards when they leave the house!]
[Off topic, I also want to live a beautiful and rich life like him.]
[Off topic again, the guy who started the livestream is quite good-looking. Is there a portal?]
A group of people Qi Xingchen commented. Director Zhao glanced at Qi Xingchen. "Tell me the truth. Is it intentional or not?"
"It's intentional and not intentional," Qi Xingchen said honestly. "I called the girl over on purpose, but I really didn't expect things to escalate to this point."
Director Zhao was quite a smart person. After listening to Qi Xingchen's explanation, he could roughly guess what had happened.
He pulled out a cigarette and smacked it. "I don't believe it if others say it's not intentional, but if you say it's not intentional, I believe it.
But this is already considered an accident. The second stop has only been filming for two days and the flying guest is already involved in a scandal. Do you know how much trouble you've caused me?
Where do you expect me to find a flying guest at the last minute?
Besides, Zhou Yu is the sponsor … "
"Sponsor …" Director Zhao's phone vibrated before he could finish his sentence.
When he saw the caller ID, he immediately put on a smile and ran out.
When he came back, the frown on his face was completely gone. He smiled quite happily. "Alright, Xing Xing, don't worry about it. The sponsor has also had a disagreement with Zhou Yu's side. He asked me to remove Zhou Yu directly. The post-production mosaic will be handled and the public relations will be handed over to them."
"That's great!"
Qi Xingchen pretended to be relieved and nodded. He was too embarrassed to tell Director Zhao that his family was the sponsor.
Director Zhao gave the order, and the post-production workers cut out the film in advance. Then, they quickly mosaicked Zhou Yu's face, covering it very well.
Qi Yunxiao saw the video forwarded on the Internet and was so angry that he directly threw his pen. "Tell the captain to bring Yuji back and call the public relations department upstairs for a meeting!"
After receiving Qi Yunxiao's order, Qi Xingchen sent Qi Yuji to the Qi family's private jet and asked her to bring back the gifts for Father Qi and Brother Qi.
.
The matter was completed satisfactorily. Qi Xingchen was too lazy to look at Zhou Yu and left it to Director Zhao.
Director Zhao also did not want to take over this hot potato. He ordered his assistant to help deal with the swollen walnut-like eyes and inform Zhou Yu's agent to come and pick him up.
Qi Xingchen asked the director's assistant for a band-aid and put it on in front of the mirror while dealing with the guests' interrogation. "I really didn't know that the girl would come. It was all a coincidence. Ouch —"
Bai Ye frowned. "Let's go to the hospital to check the bridge of your nose."
"It's okay. I've fallen many times before and have experience. I'm sure it's not broken." Qi Xingchen put an "X" on the bridge of his nose and turned around.
The guests laughed. "Hahahahaha …"
Qi Xingchen was depressed by their laughter. More importantly, he was afraid that they would continue to ask, so he found an excuse to escape.
After everyone was done laughing, Liu Ziyu could not help but gossip. "Why do you think Xing Xing felt injustice for the girl? Could it be … that he has feelings for her?"
"It's very possible!" Tao Tao analyzed. "The girl is so beautiful. How many boys can resist her charm?"
"I think they're a good match. Hey, look at Weibo. They have the same surname!
It's fate! "
"If I didn't know that Xing Xing came from an ordinary family, I would have thought that they were a family …"
The three women's chatter drilled into his ears. Bai Ye frowned and got up.
"Bai Ye, didn't you just come back? Where are you going?"
"Back to my room," Bai Ye said. "I'm a little tired. Rest."
.
Taking care of Zhou Yu was the same as cutting off Qi Yuji's transformation into a vicious cannon fodder at the source. It was the same as saving his life. Qi Xingchen woke up feeling refreshed.
Before the other guests got up, he quickly got some water to wash his face.
After washing up, he found Xiao Tie leaning against the iron door of the Zeng family's house. He waved and smiled. "You're looking for me?
Come in. "
Xiao Tie came in with an exercise book in his hand. "Brother Xing Xing, I have a question for you."
The cameraman who woke up earlier than the rooster yawned. "Young man, your Brother Xing Xing didn't eat breakfast. Wait for him to finish."
"It's okay." Qi Xingchen shook his head. "It'll take a few minutes. Let me see."
He took the exercise book and really did take a few minutes. Not only did he solve the questions, but he also wrote down the entire solution.
Xiao Tie watched him write and was overjoyed to find that the questions he didn't know were so easy. "Brother Xing Xing, my classmates also want to ask you a question. Eat first, I'll ask them to wait."
"No need."
Yangyi Village wasn't big. How many kids of the same age could there be?
Qi Xingchen had a great time solving the questions. "Let them all in. I'll finish it in 20 minutes."
"Okay, thank you Brother Xing Xing," Xiao Tie shouted. "Come in!"
Then, one, three, five, eight … They lined up and walked in.
… There were more than 40 f * cking people in!
The cameraman covered his head. "Oh my god, how many students are there?"
"Forty-two," Xiao Tie said shyly.
The cameraman asked, "How many students are there in your grade?"
"Our school doesn't divide students into grades. Adding all the villages within ten miles, there are only two classes with less than 100 students."
There were less than 100 students in total, and 42 of them had come today.
Half of the school had come!
The cameraman didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Qi Xingchen's heroic expression gradually froze and turned into a blank and bitter smile.
He ran to the table, grabbed a bun, and put it in his mouth. "Come on!"
Thus, Qi Xingchen was surrounded by the children that morning.
It wasn't until Director Zhao came over to give the task that the children finally dispersed.
"Whose turn is it?" Qi Xingchen wiped his sweat.
"It's my turn, Teacher Xing Xing." A girl raised her hand with a red face. "There are eight more behind me."
"Okay, I got it.
I have to do my own work now. You can come and find me tomorrow morning. Is it too late? "
The girl hesitated for a moment. "We have an exam at nine tomorrow."
"Then come early. Come find me at five."
Qi Xingchen set the time, sent the children away, and gathered with the guests.
Director Zhao first teased "Teacher Xing Xing" and raised the loudspeaker. "As you all know, there was a small incident yesterday. The number of guests has been adjusted back to six.
I hope you won't be affected by it and don't respond to it on social media. Continue to work together to complete the task.
Now, I'll announce today's task. "
"Today, we will be doing a wilderness survival challenge. The props required for the task will be provided by the program.
The requirements are — "
Director Zhao turned around and pointed behind him. "You see those two mountains. The one on the left is called Panlong Mountain, and the one on the right is called Ju Feng Mountain. You will need to find the pass key in each of these mountains to complete the task."
"The time limit for the task is twenty-four hours. If you can complete it before sunset today, you will trigger a hidden reward. The reward will be announced after the task is completed."
When they heard the time limit, everyone could feel the difficulty of the task. There had never been a time limit before.
"Pass key?" Liu Ziyu asked. "Is it a normal key?"
"You'll have to find it yourself." Director Zhao smiled. "It's different from the things that grow on the mountain.
Alright, put down your personal belongings and come with me. "
Everyone looked at each other and helplessly threw their backpacks back into their rooms.
Panlong Mountain and Ju Feng Mountain were about half an hour away from Yangyi Village. In order to save energy, Tao Tao took out two hundred yuan of travel funds and rented two tricycles from her fellow villagers.
The closer they got to Panlong Mountain, the more everyone understood why the program limited the time to twenty-four hours.
From afar, these two mountains were the flattest and shortest of the nearby mountains.
It was only when they got closer that they realized that even the shortest of them was much taller than the mountains that had been developed!
Qi Xingchen glanced at Luo Qiuman and saw that she was slightly embarrassed. He asked Director Zhao, "Can I give the pass card to the other guests?"
Director Zhao: "No, I reminded you yesterday that you must distribute it well."
Qi Xingchen: "But …"
"It's okay." Luo Qiuman took the initiative and said, "Do you want to give it to me, Xing Xing?
I work out regularly, so I should be able to hold on. "
Since Luo Qiuman said so, everyone could only bite the bullet and go to the stage supervisor to get the props.
The props were two large bags. Zhang Yunfei opened them one by one. "Two tents, six hiking sticks, six sun hats, one basin, six rice bowls, twelve chopsticks, one lighter, one switchblade, and some seasonings."
Seeing that he stopped, Liu Ziyu urged, "Go on."
"… That's it," Zhang Yunfei said. "That's it."
'That's it???'
"No way." Tao Tao was surprised. "Where's the food?
It's only ten o 'clock in the morning. We'll climb two mountains and then return to the village, and that's if we find the key.
If we can't find it, we'll have to spend the night in the mountains and not eat for more than ten hours … "
Not eating or exercising for more than ten hours was acceptable.
However, climbing mountains was very tiring, and not eating was the same as asking for death!
Zhang Yunfei also felt that something was wrong. "The stage supervisor might have neglected to prepare the items. I'll go ask."
Five minutes later, Zhang Yunfei came back with a blank face.
"What did he say?" Qi Xingchen asked.
Zhang Yunfei said, "Director Zhao said: This episode's test is to survive in the wild. What's the point of surviving if we give you all the food?"
The guests: "…"
Heh, I want to curse. "
Zhang Yunfei could understand everyone's feelings. After comforting them, he said, "Why don't we go first? It's useless to stay here. Maybe we'll find the key later."
"Yes," Qi Xingchen said. "Let's take it one step at a time. There's always a way."
The cameraman: "… You even came up with a jingle!"
The guests were in a better mood. "Hahahaha …"
Accompanied by a loud jingle, everyone slowly climbed up the mountain, looking around to see if there was anything that looked like a key.
Unfortunately, they didn't find it until noon.
"Brother Yunfei, shouldn't we take a break?" Tao Tao wiped her sweat. "We've been walking for three hours."
Luo Qiuman was also a little out of breath. Zhang Yunfei looked at the time. "Okay, let's rest for an hour. I'll see if I can find some fruit to fill my stomach."
"Then you look for the fruit. I heard the sound of water nearby. I'll go get some water," Qi Xingchen said.
They asked the three girls to wait in a cool place. Qi Xingchen took out a basin of water. Bai Ye said, "I'll go with you. There might be fish in the water."
Qi Xingchen: "… You want to catch fish?
The fish in the mountains are smarter than people. Without a fishing net, it might be a little difficult to catch them with your bare hands. "
"Why do we have to catch them with our bare hands?" Bai Ye took out a switchblade from his backpack. "We can sharpen the branches to catch the fish."
Qi Xingchen: "…"
Excuse me?
What did you say?
Qi Xingchen was completely speechless.
What kind of brainwashing had Bai Ye become? How could he think that using a branch to catch fish was easier than catching them with his bare hands?
His real idol couldn't be so silly, Qi Xingchen thought.
However, he couldn't bear to break his fake idol's martial arts dream, so he still took Bai Ye with him.
On the way, his fake idol picked up a branch as thick as a finger and used a knife to sharpen it like a pencil. He didn't say anything.
After walking for more than 20 meters, they saw a stream.
They didn't know if it was lucky or unlucky. The stream was cut off by a fallen tree trunk, forming a shallow pool.
In the pool, several carps were swimming around leisurely.
"There really are fish." Bai Ye raised the branch and stood by the pool to observe for a moment. Then, he lifted his leg and was about to walk into the water.
Qi Xingchen was about to use the basin to catch the water when he paused. "Eh?
Where are you going? "
"Over there to fish."
"Just like that?"
Bai Ye was puzzled. "Then how do we get there?"
Qi Xingchen was a little suffocated. He stood there for a while and struggled for a while. Then, he put down the basin and walked to Bai Ye's side.
Then, he squatted down and rolled up Bai Ye's sweatpants bit by bit. "If you go into the water like this, won't your pants get wet?"
Bai Ye wasn't a particularly naughty child when he was a child. He had never done things like catching fish or frogs in the water, so he had forgotten to roll up his pants.
How could he let Qi Xingchen do it for him? He quickly bent down and rolled up the other side.
Thanks to his good body proportions, his calves were much longer than those of ordinary boys. They were slender and well-proportioned. Because of his years of dancing, they were full of explosive energy and vitality.
Qi Xingchen's eyes lingered on his bare calves for three seconds. In other people's eyes, rolling up their pants and holding a branch would most likely make them look silly.
But this person wasn't like that. He was more like a knight holding a sword to slay a dragon. His appearance was the model of justice.
Qi Xingchen cleared his throat. "Well, go ahead. Good luck."
Bai Ye felt that this sentence was strange. It was as if he was being treated as a tool to spear the fish.
He groped his way to the center of the pool and carefully observed the swimming trajectory of the fish. After finding the target and predicting its next movement, he raised his hand high.
He missed. The fish ran away.
He changed the target.
He missed. The fish ran away again.
He couldn't help but frown and analyze the reasons for his repeated failures.
At this time, someone behind him said, "Why don't you spear it?"
There was an unconcealable smile in the voice. Bai Ye subconsciously turned his head.
He saw the boy standing behind him, rolling up his pants like him.
His eyes were curved. On his thin single eyelids, the blue veins were faintly visible.
"… Don't laugh." Bai Ye guessed at once. "You already knew that you couldn't spear the fish like this?"
Qi Xingchen's fan was very bad. "No, I just found out."
Who would dare to believe a monkey? Bai Ye threw away the branch and snorted.
Qi Xingchen felt guilty for deceiving him for so long.
He said flatteringly, "Actually, I have a way to catch fish."
"Oh?" Bai Ye smiled faintly. "Teacher Xing Xing, please enlighten me."
"Teacher Xingxing" was how Xiao Tie's classmates addressed him. When it came out of Bai Ye's mouth, there was an inexplicable feeling to it.
Qi Xingchen rubbed his nose, which was rare.
Bai Ye saw that he was embarrassed and asked, "Teacher Xing Xing, why aren't you saying anything, hmm?"
"… Okay, stop shouting." Qi Xingchen hurriedly begged for mercy. "I'll say it, I'll say it now!"
.
His method was to let Bai Ye drive the fish at one end, and he used a basin to catch the fish at the other end.
This was an old-fashioned way to catch fish when he was young. As long as the fish were thick enough, he could catch a few.
Bai Ye really listened to Teacher Xingxing's words and did so. He buckled one and threw the other onto the shore.
In the end, the two of them dragged the basin together. There wasn't much water in it, and it was densely packed with fish.
Zhang Yunfei had returned to the temporary resting place empty-handed.
It was not the ripe season. The fruits on the branches were very small and sour. The more he ate, the hungrier he became.
Everyone was worried about how to fill their stomachs. Now that they saw that Qi Xingchen had a bountiful harvest, they were happy that they could have a picnic like in the TV series.
As they laughed, they realized that they were a little embarrassed. "Wait, we don't have anything. How can we make fish?"
Among them, Luo Qiuman and Tao Tao knew how to cook, but they had no experience surviving in the wild.
Zhang Yunfei had experience surviving in the wild, but he didn't know how to cook.
So Qi Xingchen sighed. "Now listen to me. Do whatever I tell you to do, okay?"
"Okay!" they said in unison.
"Brother Yunfei, pick up the dry and thin branches. Sister Ziyu, you and Sister Tao Tao find some edible wild vegetables on Baidu. Our lives are in your hands. Don't try anything poisonous!
Sister Qiuman, I'll leave the dishes and chopsticks to you. As for the rest … "
Qi Xingchen imagined how Bai Ye would look like when he used the branches to spear the fish. "… Stay here and help me clean up the fish."
"Yes, sir!"
Everyone did as they were told. Soon, only Qi Xingchen and Bai Ye were left under the tree.
When they were by the water, Qi Xingchen had done some preliminary processing on the fish. The scales and organs had been cleaned.
Bai Ye pointed at the basin. "What else do we need to do?"
"Bring the seasoning."
Bai Ye gave him the seasoning. "What are you going to do?"
"Roast half and stew the other half.
Soup alone won't help with hunger. "
Bai Ye wasn't good at cooking. He sat on the side and watched Qi Xingchen sprinkle seasoning on the fish.
"Teacher Xing Xing." Bai Ye watched for a while and said, "Is there anything I can do for you? Or you can teach me and I'll help you."
"There's no need," Qi Xingchen said honestly. "It's better not to help a newbie. If you feel bad about it …"
Qi Xingchen thought for a while and said, "Sing a song."
After transmigrating into "Peaches of the Night," he had been running around for his life. He rarely had the chance to listen to songs.
Although this was a fake idol, it had reached the point where it could be mistaken for the real one. It was good to listen to it occasionally.
Singing was Bai Ye's specialty. Without hesitation, he sang his classic lyrical song.
Listening to it on the radio and in person was different from listening to it in person. The low and magnetic male voice flowed slowly in the quiet forest in spring. Even the wind couldn't help but tremble.
Qi Xingchen was unconsciously immersed in it. After singing the song, he couldn't help but think of his true idol.
Uncontrollable love and admiration overflowed from the bottom of his heart and spread to the corners of his mouth.
Bai Ye saw his expression and knew that he was in a good mood. He asked softly, "Xing Xing, where did you learn to cook?"
He almost never asked about other people's private lives. First, it was impolite. Second, few people aroused his curiosity.
But the reaction of the little fan two nights ago made him uncomfortable. He couldn't help but want to find out.
Qi Xingchen was indeed in a good mood. He smiled and said, "I don't know why. I just learned to cook by myself."
Bai Ye heard something different. "Didn't anyone cook for you when you were young?"
"You can't say that. I'm not that poor," Qi Xingchen said. "I can cook for myself."
At this moment, the assistant who had just been released from Bai Ye's singing joined the conversation. "Xing Xing, you're good-looking, have a good temper, and can cook. The girl who marries you will be very happy!"
Bai Ye suddenly thought of Zhou Yu's girlfriend and glanced at Qi Xingchen.
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you so worried about my life?" Qi Xingchen was busy braising the fish and joked without looking up. "I'm in 'Poor Traveller', not 'If You're the One', right?"
.
Everyone did a good job. Qi Xingchen lived up to everyone's expectations. He found an open space and made two fires. One was roasting fish, and the other was stewing soup.
Roasting fish required sticking branches into the fish. Qi Xingchen couldn't bear to let the girls do such a bloody thing.
He called the two men over and took out a pile of branches he had just sharpened. He pointed at them and said, "How do you use these branches?
Let me show you how. "
Then, he aimed the tip at the fish's open mouth, and with a "poof" sound, he stabbed it in.
Bai Ye was speechless.
After stabbing the fish, Liu Ziyu said, "How are we going to stew the fish soup? We don't have a pot."
"What do you think we're doing with the basin?"
Qi Xingchen said, "In the program's mind, we don't need to wash our faces. The sloppier we are, the more attractive we are.
So it's — "
Qi Xingchen held the basin full of water and set it over the fire. "It's a pot."
Liu Ziyu was speechless.
Director Zhao was speechless. "… You little monkey, I hope your fish is burnt!"
Unfortunately, things didn't go according to Director Zhao's wishes. Not long after, the fish grill began to smell.
Not long after, the smell of the fish pot almost enveloped the mountain!
Zhang Yunfei tentatively tasted it first, and his expression changed from worry to shock. "Wow, pure wild fish is delicious. Everyone, come and eat!"
The guests rushed up and ate heartily.
Bai Ye was always the last to eat. Qi Xingchen quickly grabbed a fish from the fish grill and secretly stuffed it into Bai Ye's hand.
They ate happily, but the program crew felt a little uncomfortable.
As the flagship variety show of Maimang TV, the program team of "Budget Travel" had always maintained the best treatment.
No matter where they went, there was a team of chefs responsible for three meals, and there were several dishes a day.
Today, they had to go up the mountain to shoot, and the camera equipment was too heavy. In order to travel light, the director only asked the stage supervisor to bring bread, biscuits, sausages, and other fast food.
Compared to the guests' hot and fragrant fish soup, it was simply not a meal for humans!
Qi Xingchen didn't forget to think about how to find the pass key while eating. He inadvertently caught a glimpse of half of the program crew, who were looking at him eagerly.
He had an idea. He washed his bowl, poured a bowl of fish soup, and took a hot grilled fish.
He went to the small stage supervisor in the corner.
The small stage supervisor was a girl. When she saw Qi Xingchen approaching, she blushed. "Xing Xing, are you looking for me?"
"Yes." He nodded. "The biscuits are too choking. Have some soup."
"Are you really giving it to me?" The small stage supervisor swallowed quietly and reached out to take it.
Before she touched the bowl, she retracted her hand. "No, Xing Xing, are you trying to trick me?"
Qi Xingchen choked, feeling offended.
Was this his image in the minds of the program crew?
"I'm not trying to trick you," Qi Xingchen explained. "I'm afraid you won't eat well, so I asked what the pass key looks like."
"… I knew it!"
The stage supervisor felt lucky that she didn't fall for it. She waved her hand. "Xing Xing, the director doesn't want me to reveal it, so I can't tell you."
"He's eating in his tent and can't see it. Only you and I know."
The cameraman who was too lazy to follow them and zoomed in: "…"
Did he think that he was invisible?
Qi Xingchen still didn't give up. He waved the white fish soup in front of her and tried to persuade her. "Also, I only asked what the pass key looks like. I didn't ask where you hid it, so it's not against the rules."
"…" The small stage supervisor thought about it. What he said made sense!
"The pass key …" She gritted her teeth. In the end, she couldn't resist the double temptation of a handsome man and delicious food. "The pass key is made into the shape of a fruit with a wax mold.
"Don't ask me what fruit it is. I can only tell you this much."
"Okay!"
Qi Xingchen agreed very generously. He then gave her all the food and went back to report excitedly. "When you look for the pass key, look up. The program crew made the pass key into a fruit and hung it on the tree!"
The stage supervisor: "!!!"
She forgot that in the mountains, only trees could bear fruit!
In order to make it look realistic, the props team hung the key on a real fruit tree.
The guests only needed to look at the trees that bore fruit as they walked. Pine, poplar, and the like were eliminated at a glance.
An hour later, they found the first pass key at the peak of Panlong Mountain.
Four hours later, they found the second pass key in the valley of Fengju Mountain and returned home.
Director Zhao and Assistant Li were dumbfounded. Did any of the guests have the power of divination?
It was so difficult to find the pass key. Why didn't they find it at night?
They didn't even use the tents prepared for them.
What was even more infuriating was that after completing the mission, Qi Xingchen's cleverness came back. "Sister Tao Tao, we don't need to go back the way we came.
We can go down the mountain from Fengju Mountain and find the villagers below to take a taxi or rent a car. "
The props team leader, who had prepared many scary props in hopes of filming the guests exploring the mountains at night, said, "Oh, f * ck!
Don't invite this kid next season! "
.
Just like every day, after the guests returned to their rooms to tidy up, the director called everyone out and announced today's mission reward.
"Because you have fulfilled the condition of completing the mission before sunset, you have triggered the hidden reward.
This time, the reward is — "
Tao Tao: "PASS card?"
"No," director Zhao said, "the hidden reward this time is a wish card. It can complete the wish of one of your guests that is related to the mission. It will expire after ten minutes."
Everyone did not quite understand and looked at each other.
Director Zhao continued, "how about this, let me give an example.
For example, if the wish card is given to Zi Yu, Zi Yu can make a wish and withdraw from all the missions in the future. The reward will not be reset to zero.
Do you understand this time? "
"… I understand."
In that case, the wish card had more power than the PASS card. It could achieve the effect of once and for all!
To be honest, these few missions all required a lot of mental or physical strength.
After a few days of non-stop work, other than the energetic young men, everyone else was exhausted.
The appearance of this wish card was the Ark that brought them out of hell. No one did not want it.
In fact, the program team's intention of setting up the wish card at this juncture was very obvious — they wanted to see everyone tear each other apart.
Now that their team was too harmonious, there would be no sparks, and the explosive points would become fewer and fewer.
Originally, the conflict between Liu Ziyu and Qi Xingchen could still be used as material. A godly editing would cause a war, and "Poor Traveler" would reap the benefits.
Later on, for some unknown reason, Liu Ziyu actually gave up on targeting Qi Xingchen and turned to protect him everywhere.
The program team also had their own difficulties.
Fortunately, they had many ways to start a war. Director Zhao smiled. "Don't forget that the wish card's time limit is only ten minutes. Three minutes have already passed. Have you thought of who to give it to?"
The leader, Zhang Yunfei, was in a difficult position.
The more difficult it was for him, the happier director Zhao was. He counted down on his watch. "There are six minutes left, five minutes left, four minutes left … Yunfei, are you sure you don't want to say it?"
No, if you don't say it now, there's really no time left.
Zhang Yunfei stomped his foot. "I'll say it!"
"Maybe you'll think I'm biased, but this time … I still want to give the card to Xing Xing."
"Huh?" Liu Ziyu was confused. "You also want to give it to Xing Xing? If I had known, I wouldn't have held back."
"Hey, what's all this about?" Luo Qiuman slapped her thigh. "I was afraid of causing internal conflict, so I didn't dare to say it. My first reaction was to give it to Xing Xing."
Bai Ye didn't say anything and nodded.
The only one who really didn't care was Qi Xingchen. "???"
Director Zhao, who was waiting for the guests to tear each other apart, was also stunned.
… Damn, this kid shouldn't be called a monkey anymore. He should be called a little goblin!
But at this point, there was no use in struggling.
Director Zhao threw the card to Qi Xingchen without much interest. "There's still two minutes left, hurry up and think of a wish."
"Wow, Xing Xing, you have to think about it carefully!"
"Yeah, yeah, why don't you not participate in the rest of the mission? You're the most tired these days, so you can take a break."
"Or you can make a wish to increase your personal reward so that you can use it in the next episode."
"Or …"
Qi Xingchen's ears were blocked by other people's suggestions, so he didn't listen to a single one of them.
He raised his hand quickly. "I've thought about it."
Director Zhao: "So fast?"
"Yeah."
"Then tell me."
"My wish is that if you know how we're going to complete the mission today, you can't scold your employees."
In the last row of the program, the little stage supervisor who had been worried about leaking information was stunned.
So he … wasn't just using her.
.
Everyone was exhausted from climbing the mountain today. After taking a quick shower and lying in bed, the courtyard fell into silence.
Qi Xingchen was still thinking about the livestream of Zhou Yu, so he opened Weibo before going to bed.
Under the clever operation of the public relations team, all the dirt on Zhou Yu from birth until now was dug up and spread widely.
The screenshot of his face covered in chili sauce was also made into an emoji pack for widespread use, directly nailing him to the pillar of shame of being a scumbag.
And the biggest beneficiary of this incident was Qi Yuji. Qi Xingchen and Qi Yuji's Weibo were "accidentally" dug up.
Qi Xingchen's followers increased from more than 900,000 to a million.
Qi Yuji was different. As the protagonist of this incident, her followers directly jumped from 1.3 million to nearly 2 million!
However, there was no lack of netizens with opposing views on this incident. Many people guessed that this was a joint publicity stunt by Qi Xingchen and Qi Yuji.
And the number was not small. Immediately, a large group of anti-fans rushed in aggressively, scolding Qi Xingchen for being disgusting and using other people's private problems to create hype.
There were even some who said that Qi Xingchen shouldn't be jumping around anymore, and that he should just go to hell!
Qi Xingchen was speechless.
Who wouldn't feel uncomfortable being cursed by countless people who didn't know him?
As a public figure, he couldn't confront them directly.
Qi Xingchen thought about it and felt that anything he said might distort the true meaning, so he got up and took a photo of the night sky outside the window.
Without any caption, he directly typed out a Weibo post.
Perhaps it had something to do with the word "Ye" in his idol's name. In his heart, the night was the most tolerant.
It could contain all the beauty in the world, and also all the filth in the world.
In the end, as time passed, night after night, the scars would gradually be erased, and all the past would eventually become memories, dissipating in the long river of time.
Qi Xingchen looked up at the moon for a while and finally calmed down.
When he got into bed, he scrolled through his phone and suddenly found that comments and notifications of increasing fans were piled up in his task bar!
What was going on? Did Qi Yunxiao buy trending searches for him again?
Qi Xingchen frowned and opened Weibo.
