Xie Qi now had a clear understanding of the current situation. The fact that he and Xiao Ziran were able to form a group was entirely the result of netizens' voting.

Before the show started, the production team opened online voting, allowing fans to choose their ideal CP combination.

Since Xie Qi and Xiao Ziran's popularity is not as high as other guests, although their CP combination was selected as the preliminary CP, they faced the challenge of being assigned to the farthest destination.

These five days are their challenge period. Each pair must do their best to earn enough money within the specified time and then find a way to leave the place set by the program team.

Ultimately, they need to meet at a villa in the city. During this process, they need to use various methods to achieve their goal.

After the reunion, it is the first round of heart-beating selection. If you have a good impression of each other during these five days, you can continue to choose each other. Otherwise, you can choose a new CP partner.

The fact that Xie Qi and Xiao Ziran were able to be paired as the initial couple was all thanks to the original owner’s mother fans.

According to the original words of the mother fans, "Baby, mommy picked a rich guy for you, get him! Marry into a wealthy family and reach the pinnacle of life!"

However, Xie Qi was destined to make these mom fans' plans fail. Netizens didn't know, but Xie Qi knew through the plot that the richest person here was of course his wife.

If you want to cling to a golden thigh, then of course it would be to cling to the best actor, that would be the best.

However, Xie Qi was a little confused about one thing. He turned his head slightly and looked at Xiao Ziran, who had been following him silently with his head lowered.

Unable to resist, he asked, "Actor Xiao Ze... Logically, he should be your cousin, right? Are you two participating in a dating show together?"

However, when Xiao Ziran heard Xie Qi say this, his head, which had been lowered, instantly raised up, with a strange light flashing in his eyes. Then, he seemed to be suddenly ignited and became extremely interested.

He put his hands on his hips, a smug look on his face, and said proudly, "I secretly signed him up under his name. He only found out he was going to be on the dating show after the show was promoted. You have no idea how upset he was when he found out he was going to be on the dating show, hahaha..."

After Xie Qi finished listening to Xiao Ziran's explanation, a meaningful light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he slowly said: "Oh, so that's the case... Then why are you here too?"

Xiao Ziran was slightly stunned, and then a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. After a long while, he stammered, "Uh... In order to disgust me, he held my head down and made me sign the contract."

Whenever Xiao Ziran thought of this, he felt extremely regretful. If he had known this earlier, he would not have agreed to his aunt finding a partner for Xiao Ze.

Didn't he originally think that participating in this dating show might really help his cousin Xiao Ze, who was always busy with work, find a suitable partner? That's why he secretly signed up without telling him. Who could have expected that he would end up getting himself involved?

And it was for this reason that Xiao Ze specifically and solemnly explained to the program crew again and again, explicitly requiring them to treat Xiao Ziran as an ordinary person and not give him any special privileges.

Because of this, Xiao Ziran was filled with deep worries. He was afraid that since he bullied Xie Qi two days ago, Xie Qi, who no longer cared about his personality, would beat him up. After all, he was now in the show, and the program crew would not come forward to protect him or help him out.

However, after Xie Qi heard what Xiao Ziran said, an imperceptible complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He said nothing more and just turned around and walked forward silently.

Xiao Ziran stared blankly at Xie Qi's receding figure and couldn't help but shout, "Hey! You're not going to reach your destination, are you?"

Without even turning his head, Xie Qi said coldly, "Did a donkey kick your head? Go back? How dare you think that?"

Xiao Ziran felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He scratched his head and then asked, "So where are you going next?"

Xie Qi answered without hesitation: "Go to the town to make money, and then return to the city."

Xiao Ziran asked with a puzzled look on his face: "How do you make money?"

Xie Qi raised a faint smile and said jokingly, "Sell you."

“…”

At this moment, Xiao Ziran finally understood that he would gain no benefit by talking to Xie Qi in such an unreasonable manner, so he wisely chose to shut up.

Besides, it was only about ten minutes away from the town, so he could walk there. As for whether Xie Qi could make money smoothly, he had some doubts.

Xie Qi had clearly said yesterday that doing farm work in the countryside was a quick way to make money, but now he has suddenly changed his mind. It seems that doing farm work can really make people lose their image.

It wasn't long before they arrived at the town, which seemed exceptionally deserted compared to the bustling city.

There were only a few pedestrians on either side of the road, as if the whole world had become quiet. Occasionally, a few dilapidated vehicles slowly passed by, leaving behind a series of faint tire tracks.

Those stores are even more ordinary, selling all kinds of daily necessities, from firewood, rice, oil and salt to pots, pans and utensils, as well as some small businesses such as home appliance repairs. The stores are not big, but they carry every bit of the lives of the town residents.

Xiao Ziran held a big leaf tightly in his hand, leaning against the shade of the roadside, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead.

He fanned himself constantly, breathing heavily, his tone full of doubt: "Are you...really sure you can make money here? This doesn't look like a place where you can make a fortune."

However, Xie Qi seemed unaffected by Xiao Ziran's words. He simply stared ahead silently, his own plans in mind. Following the clues provided by 948, he resolutely walked towards a secluded street.

He knew that unlike in urban areas, the ways to make money in rural areas were very limited. Most of the people here were left-behind children and elderly people, whose pace of life was slow and who had relatively few needs for entertainment. Not to mention the fact that, like in urban areas, people could just sing and get tips.

If you want to make money quickly, the place that comes to mind as a place that is both easy and can produce quick results is the Internet cafe.

After all, even in rural areas, Internet cafes always gather a lot of people, especially young men.

When Xiao Ziran and the cameraman saw Xie Qi continue to move forward, they were full of doubts, but they immediately followed him tacitly.

When Xiao Ziran finally saw the place where Xie Qi walked into, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and his face was full of confusion.

He really suspected that Xie Qi was not here to make money but to have fun.
