Of course they didn't notice before, because this was the first time they had worn this t-shirt. Otherwise, they wouldn't have worn it so many times without realizing the material was bad.

[Hahaha, this is hilarious! Xu Miaotong's attempt to create a persona has completely failed. She's probably cursing right now, thinking even cheap street vendor items aren't good enough. Actually, there are many good street vendor items; you just need to search carefully.]

[Agree with the comment above]

When the guests were all feeling unbearably hot, Director Jiang finally appeared.

Director Jiang deliberately made everyone wait a little longer in the sweltering heat, just to see the guests' reactions and hopefully capture some talking points.

His strategy can be considered a success.

Seeing that Director Jiang had finally arrived, Qin Yuanyao pointed the small fan at Chi Naozi alone and stood up.

But because she had been squatting for too long, her legs were a little numb, and suddenly everything went black before her eyes. She couldn't see anything, and her head was still spinning.

Qin Yuanyao swayed twice and instinctively reached for something nearby to hold onto.

She made a few tentative grabbing motions before finally securing a strong arm, which helped her regain her balance.

After a few seconds, her vision cleared up, but she was still a little dizzy and the numbness in her legs hadn't subsided.

Qin Yuanyao looked up along the arm she was holding.

She had indeed grabbed Chi Baiyi's arm.

Qin Yuanyao subconsciously loosened her grip, "No..."

Without support, her body swayed again, and she almost lost her balance and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Chi Baiyi caught her with his other hand in time.

"Sister Qin, what's wrong?" Chi Nao noticed something was wrong and asked with concern.

"It's nothing. I squatted for too long and stood up too quickly, so my legs are a little numb and I feel a bit dizzy." Qin Yuanyao smiled at her.

I only have a superficial understanding of the cheese.

She would squat and stand for a while, and she never did what her mother described, so she couldn't quite understand it.

But she knew that it was easy to fall when she was dizzy.

So she said, "Then, Daddy, you have to hold Sister Qin up tight, okay? Don't let her fall."

Chi Baiyi gave a faint "hmm".

His palms were broad and strong, and beneath them lay the skin of her arm.

That spot was now hot and scalding, making it impossible for them to tell whether the unusual temperature originated from him, her, or the increasingly hot weather.

Qin Yuanyao felt the temperature of her cheeks slowly rising.

She didn't dare look at Chi Baiyi, but stared at the ground, leaving Chi Baiyi with her perfectly beautiful profile.

Qin Yuanyao could no longer feel the numbness in her legs and dizziness, so she shyly said to Chi Baiyi, "I'm fine now, I'm alright."

Chi Baiyi hummed in response, released her expressionlessly, and then shifted his gaze from her to Director Jiang, who was not far away.

He appeared calm and inscrutable, but in reality, all he could see was Qin Yuanyao's beautiful profile from just now.

The interaction between Chi Baiyi and Qin Yuanyao lasted only two or three minutes. Other guests might not have noticed it, but netizens watching Chi Baiyi and Qin Yuanyao saw it all.

So sweet! So sweet! It made me smile like an auntie!

[The interaction between President Chi and Yao Yao, there are clearly no ambiguous actions, but why do I see ambiguity everywhere? *sobs*]

The way President Chi was staring at Qin Yuanyao just now, it really did seem like there was something going on in it.

Why do some people always go crazy and spout nonsense?! Have they forgotten CEO Chi's attitude?!

We weren't doing anything, we were just expressing our feelings about what happened, is that a problem?

Why are some people so unwilling to ship Chi Zong and Qin Yuanyao together? Oh~ I know~ these people who are unwilling actually want us to ship Chi Zong with their own idols, right? (smiling face)

Yes, we weren't on drugs, we were just having a blast and going crazy, okay?

[Hahahaha, you're ruthless upstairs, I love it! Count me in! (evil grin)]

Director Jiang has started speaking.

"Our live stream location this season is the village behind us—Wangshui Village. This season, we won't accept any toys or snacks..."

Before Director Jiang could finish speaking, Ge Ling's pupils dilated in shock.

"You won't put away the toys?!" She turned her head angrily and glared at her mother, Zhuo Ranjun. "I said I'd bring the dolls, but you won't let me!"

Zhuo Ranyun smiled helplessly, "How was I supposed to know the rules had changed this season? If I had known beforehand, I definitely would have let you lead them."

Ge Ling huffed angrily and turned her head away.

Feng Xuan reacted even more strongly than she did.

He pointed at his mother, Wu Ningwei, and yelled, "You're the one who took all the snacks I put in out! Give me back my snacks!!"

Wu Ningwei was equally helpless, saying, "I didn't know we could bring snacks this season."

"You didn't know and you still took my snacks! If you didn't know, then don't touch my snacks!!" Feng Xuan said angrily, raising his voice even louder.

Feng Wenhe scolded him, "So what if you can't eat snacks for five or six days? Are you a grown man? Can't you live without snacks?!"

Feng Xuan pouted after being yelled at by his father and dared not shout anymore.

[Teacher Feng is really good at keeping Ah Xuan in check.]

I always felt that Feng Xuan didn't respect his mother. Ge Ling also criticized her mother, but after Zhuo Ranyun explained, Ge Ling, though unconvinced, didn't say anything. Feng Xuan, however, was different; he still yelled at Wu Ningwei.

Ah Xuan shouldn't be afraid of Sister Wu at all, only of Teacher Feng. I guess it's because Sister Wu spoils Ah Xuan too much that he's not afraid of her and has this kind of attitude towards her.

Children shouldn't be spoiled too much. You have to yell when you need to, and discipline them when necessary. Otherwise, they'll only become more unruly and harder to manage later on.

"Kids, don't get excited yet, I haven't finished speaking," Director Jiang continued calmly.

"Although you can bring toys and snacks this season, you can't eat snacks as meals, and you can't eat snacks while doing tasks. If any child is found not to follow the rules, they will be fined."

The children listened listlessly, since none of them had brought toys or snacks.

Only Chi Nao listened very attentively, silently memorizing everything Director Jiang said.

[A lively and bustling scene. Just by looking at the expressions of the little kids, you can tell who brought toys and snacks and who didn't.]

[Chi Cheese, you might as well just give me my ID card]

[Hahaha, this reminds me of cheese sticks and plush toys that were secretly stuffed into a suitcase by cheese.]

What does "secretly" mean? I hadn't been paying much attention to Chi Nao's livestream before.

[To the person who said the previous answer: Cheese's luggage was packed by her great-grandparents and grandparents. The four elders probably watched the first season and knew that snacks and toys would be confiscated, so they didn't put those in Cheese's suitcase. Cheese secretly stuffed a lot of cheese sticks and several plush toys into it when the elders weren't looking.]
