Chapter 37: A Duplicity

Wen Chi took care of all the housework.

Cooking, washing dishes, wiping the table, sweeping the floor...

He has a mild obsession with cleanliness. It's fine if he doesn't clean, but once he does, he wants to make every corner spotless.

Just as Wen Chi was busy and sweating profusely, he accidentally saw a pile of dirty rags in the corner of the room.

Wen Chi frowned in disgust, not understanding how this thing could appear in the room.

He picked it up between two fingers and was about to throw it away.

When the "rag" was shaken open, Wen Chi realized that it was not a "rag" at all. It was clearly the clothes Sui Sui Lai had worn that day!

After a brief hesitation, Wen Chi decided to inform Sui Sui:

"Sui Sui, can you throw away your dirty clothes?"

"Don't throw it!"

Sui Sui rushed in from outside as if he was on a Hot Wheels, ready to get his clothes back!

But she had just changed her skirt after coming back, so how could Wen Chi let her touch her?

Lift it higher quickly.

“It’s so dirty.”

“Not dirty!”

Sui Sui retorted angrily, and the little kid tried hard to jump around and get the clothes back!

Wen Chi was a little confused.

This piece of clothing is not only dirty, but also very old, with many parts of it frayed.

Suisui seems to like the new clothes bought by the program crew, so why is she suddenly obsessed with these old clothes?

Sui Sui: “This was given to me by a good friend!”

Wen Chi got another key point.

"good friend?"

"It's a good friend I met in the mountains. She gave me these clothes. It's a gift!"

Suisui rarely spoke a few words to Wen Chi, unlike before when she kept her mouth shut.

Wen Chi immediately sensed a softening in her attitude.

Then he tried to say:

"Where are your own clothes?"

"Of course it was..." Xiaoshan put it away!

At the critical moment, Suisui brakes in time!

Her cheeks were puffed up like a little pufferfish, but because she was so small, even her anger had no power, and she was just cute.

"I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

Announce loudly every year that if you are dissatisfied, you will turn around and leave.

She didn't forget her clothes when she left. She stopped and walked back with heavy steps.

“Give it back to me!”

She cried in a baby voice, and Wen Chi smiled when she heard it.

Wen Chi did not continue to ask, as if to make amends, and took the initiative to say:

"Then I'll help you clean it."

"don't want!"

"Isn't it a gift from a friend? You don't want it to get dirty, do you?"

Wen Chi's words made Sui Sui hesitate.

After a long time, she nodded reluctantly.

"That's fine."

That's not enough.

Suisui became Wen Chi's supervisor and watched him wash with her own eyes.

Wen Chi did not dare to slack off.

After entering the mountains, he would just rinse his own clothes with clean water, but now he treated Sui Sui's clothes as if they were precious fabrics. He filled a basin with water and scrubbed them carefully with soap.

The audience was amazed:

[Are there any friends who have followed me all the way? Do you understand the complicated feelings I have when I see Wen Chi? ]

[I understand! I used to call him a loser in the comments, but I didn't expect him to be so diligent now.]

【Koike has grown up! /smoking/】

[Haha, he was resistant to Sui Sui before, saying he didn't want to film with her, but he ended up doing whatever Sui Sui asked him to do. He's basically saying one thing and thinking another!]

[Really? I remember him telling the director in the behind-the-scenes footage that he wasn't good at raising children and wouldn't do anything physically. Now, he's been slapped in the face!]

Joking aside, the audience's favorability towards Wen Chi has skyrocketed.

As the audience said, Wen Chi didn't even realize that he had changed -

From the boring and lifeless beginning of the show to the interesting and lively one now.

He and Sui Sui went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, pick fruits, catch chickens and fish, and kept the small yard in order.

Occasionally I think of picking some wild flowers from the roadside and putting them in a coarse pottery jar filled with clear water. It has a unique wild and romantic feel.

Audience comments: [He seemed to have forgotten he was filming and was actually living with Sui Sui in the mountains. It was very real and full of down-to-earth atmosphere.]

This happens to be what the audience loves to see.

As a result, the data in Wen Chi’s live broadcast room continued to rise, from the initial bottom to the current second place.

The seventh day of filming was also the last day of the first shoot.

Today we only need to shoot for half a day. After the shooting is completed, the guests will set off to leave Chunshan.

After all, the four guests are actors and singers, and have other careers. It is impossible for them to stay in the mountains for several months. They need time to deal with other work and take a vacation.

Generally speaking, there will be a week of rest after every week of recording to give the guests enough time to recharge.

However, the show is about to be broadcast, and considering the problem of material reserves, the guests' first vacation will only be four days.

Chunshan is remote and far away from the nearest airport. It takes two days to go back and forth.

So a four-day holiday is not that long.

However, when it came to Suisui's ears, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Wen Chi was packing his things when Sui Sui suddenly ran over.

"You're leaving?"

She opened her beautiful jewel-like eyes and looked at Wen Chi with anticipation and fear, looking a little pitiful.

Wen Chi felt a pang of relief in his heart.

He half-knelt down in front of Sui Sui, pursed his lips, and then said:

"I'll be back in a few days."

Sui Sui's mouth slowly pursed, and her eyes had turned slightly red.

"Can't you just not leave?"

She asked in a low voice, softly and weakly, as if she had no confidence at all.

This is completely different from her usual arrogant and domineering look, as if she wants to declare that the entire Chunshan is her territory.

Wen Chi's heart softened and he almost wavered, and he agreed to let Sui Sui stay.

But he remembered that he had some urgent matters to deal with, so he had to be cruel:

"I will definitely come back! Just wait for me for four days!"

Crystal tears were already welling up in Suisui's eyes.

But she didn't cry.

Crying won't solve anything.

Suisui hung his head in frustration.

Just when Wen Chidu thought that she had accepted this fact.

Sui Sui suddenly said firmly: "Then I will go with you!"

She wants to follow her destined person personally!

Wen Chi opened his eyes wide in surprise.

He coughed lightly:

"Actually...I asked."

Thinking about it now, Wen Chi felt that he had lost his mind. He actually ran to ask the program crew if he could take Sui Sui with him when he left.

The result is obvious, I was rejected.

Who would allow a young single man to take away a little girl whom he had only known for a few days and with whom he had no relationship?

Since the program crew was entrusted by the police to temporarily take care of Sui Sui, and thanks to Sui Sui for bringing a lot of popularity to the variety show, they should take responsibility for Sui Sui!

Wen Chi understood all of this and didn't say anything else.

He told these principles to Sui Sui.

Sui Sui seemed to be thinking: "So you can't take me away?"

As Wen Chi nodded, he heard Xia Kai calling his name outside.

He bent down and took Sui Sui's hand: "Let's go, let's go to the village first."
