Chapter 96: New Era of Waiting

Wen Chi took the updated black manual, compared it with the route, and walked out of the house.

When he was about to leave, he thought of Sui Sui who was sleeping alone, so he went to Zhao Sizhen's house and asked her to look after Sui Sui later.

Zhao Sizhen's eyes lit up, as if he had gained a huge benefit!

If Wen Chi hadn't said that Sui Sui was already asleep, she would have wanted to bring Sui Sui directly to her home to sleep!

She is always showing through her actions her determination to compete for the job and suppress Wen Chi!

Facing Zhao Sizhen's fierce gaze, Wen Chi secretly curled his lips.

But he had to admit that with Zhao Sizhen around, he felt more at ease leaving Suisui to her.

Then he set out on the route to the collection point with peace of mind, as aggressive as a young general about to go to the battlefield.

However, when it comes to the brutality of the "battle", Wen Chi is not wrong.

After most of the afternoon, Wen Chi finally came back... and he came back with a lot of stuff!

Wen Chi raised his chin unconsciously and took majestic steps!

He was holding a box of shrimps in his left hand and a chicken in his right hand, like a general returning in triumph, sweeping away his long-standing depression and frustration!

Yes! Today! Koike finally proved his ability!

He is definitely not a gigolo!

Absolutely not!

The barrage applauded and cheered:

[Wow, Koike has really grown up!]

[Even though things got really messed up today...it's okay! Only the brothers and sisters in our live studio saw it! We definitely won't tell anyone!]

Look at how smug Xiaochi is, tsk tsk. But I have to say, he looks a lot more lively now. Back in the talent show, he was just a soulless, delicate dummy. Now, he's a bit more interesting.

Not to mention the previous two years, even compared to last week, there's been a huge transformation, okay? From a nobody to a top dog, and with the trend of continuing to grow, all thanks to the years!

Although Wen Chi could not hear the cheers from the barrage audience, this did not affect his heroic and high-spirited return.

When I returned to the door of the cottage, I saw that the courtyard door was open. Suisui was probably in the house at this time.

He stepped over the threshold, his tone rising:

"Sui Sui! Look at what...I brought?"

Faced with the situation in the room, Wen Chi hummed in confusion.

Because the people staying in the room now include not only Sui Sui and Zhao Sizhen, but also Yu Xiaoxiao and Zhou Lizhi.

They were squatting on the ground, studying something and talking in low voices.

He didn't even notice Wen Chi's arrival at the first moment!

Wen Chi: ???

Doesn’t he deserve a welcome when he returns with a full load?

Wen Chi was just about to find a place to put the shrimp and chicken when his sight shifted...

"ha!"

Wen Chi exclaimed.

Finally attracted the attention of others.

Sui Sui from the atmosphere group jumped up with a wow, and saw the harvest in Wen Chi's hand:

"Xiao Chi! Did you bring this back? That's amazing! Xiao Chi is awesome!"

Sui Sui's enthusiastic praise barely soothed Wen Chi's wounded heart.

Wen Chi snorted proudly:

“It turns out this isn’t that difficult.”

He said this to Zhao Sizhen and the other three.

Unfortunately, only Sui Sui responded. The little ginseng spirit clapped happily:

"I knew Xiaochi was smart!"

Wen Chi paused, feeling something was wrong.

Wait, why do these three people look at him in such strange ways?

Oh, and the thing next to it...

"Why are there two rabbits here?"

Wen Chi pointed to the rabbit wrapped in a bamboo basket in the corner.

If I remember correctly, the rabbit was not there before he went out.

Could it be that one of the guests caught it?

Zhao Sizhen saw his confusion, stood up, smiled, and said:

"I catch them every year... Oh no, I pick them up."

"Picked it up?"

Did the program crew cheat?

Wen Chi wisely didn't say this in front of the live camera, but he couldn't hide his confusion.

Zhao Sizhen's face was filled with shock and numbness as he told the whole story.

It all started when Zhao Sizhen was free and told Sui Sui a fairy tale -

This story is about the Big Bad Wolf and the Little White Rabbit. Relying on his meager memory, Zhao Sizhen told the story in a crooked way, mixed with many fragments pieced together, and was harshly criticized by the audience in the live broadcast room as "a mess of things".

However, the purpose of the story remains the same, which is to warn children to be wary of outsiders and not to invite others in when they are alone at home.

After listening to it, Sui Sui missed the point:

"Why do you want to eat rabbits? Rabbits are so cute!"

Zhao Sizhen burst out laughing, and facing Sui Sui's puzzled gaze, he deliberately teased her:

"Rabbit is delicious. There are rabbits with hot peppers, cold rabbits, braised rabbits, and steamed rabbits..."

Sui Sui swallowed.

"Then let's eat rabbit!"

Zhao Sizhen was stunned for a moment.

"But we don't have rabbit meat in our ingredients. How about I look for it tomorrow?"

Sui Sui waved his hand and said there was no need to go through so much trouble.

Then she ran out of the cottage yard, clasped her hands together, and looked up at the sky expectantly:

"I want to eat rabbit!"

Zhao Sizhen, who followed out, was amused by Sui Sui's innocence and cuteness:

"Okay, okay, let's make a wish and go tomorrow..."

He didn't finish his words.

Pop.

Two gray rabbits suddenly appeared from nowhere, so fast that only their shadows were left.

Then with a bang, it hit the pillar at the door.

The two rabbits fainted on the spot.

The wish of eating rabbit meat every year is fulfilled!

Zhao Si was stunned, his voice trembling:

"Is this the new era of waiting for something to happen?"

Sui Sui didn't hear anything. He happily picked up two plump rabbits, holding one in each hand, and ran to Zhao Sizhen:

"So, Sister Sizhen, when are we going to eat rabbit? Rabbit with spicy peppers, cold rabbit, braised rabbit..."

She actually repeated the name of the dish that Zhao Sizhen casually mentioned word for word!

Zhao Sizhen's eyes widened:

"Sui Sui, you are a genius!"

Sui Sui didn’t know what a genius was, she only knew that she was happy to eat rabbit.

As for my previous habit of not liking to eat meat...

Um?

Does she have it?

Sui Sui thought about it with peace of mind, his mouth almost watering!

That’s not all.

After Zhao Sizhen helped tie up the two rabbits, he took Suisui out for a walk while the weather was good.

The two of them strolled around the area, and Sui Sui discovered a large patch of mushrooms under a tree.

Zhao Sizhen felt that the shape of the mushrooms looked familiar. Without thinking too much, he went back to get a bamboo basket and emptied out all the mushrooms.

On the way back, Suisui and Zhao Sizhen met Yu Xiaoxiao and Zhou Lizhi respectively.

After Zhao Sizhen told them about these unexpected discoveries, they both said they wanted to come and see them together.

Then there was a scene of three people and one mushroom squatting on the ground studying mushrooms.

Wen Chi was stunned when he heard this.

Such an outrageous plot...Are they really in a fantasy novel now?

What? This happened to Sui Sui?

Oh, that's okay.

Very reasonable.
