Yan Yaoyao was greatly disappointed, but still asked persistently, "What kind of card did they use?"

“One set is a lucky card, and your balance will double,” Zhang Song kindly replied.

Yan Yaoyao gritted her teeth, "Where's Xi Luo?"

Zhang Song touched his nose. "Young Master Luo's card is rather unethical. It's a card that will clear the remaining funds and all items in Group Two."

When Yan Yaoyao opened her ID watch, she found that her account had indeed been cleared.

She was trembling with anger. Just like that, everything was wiped clean. What had she been doing all these days?

The phrase "drawing water with a bamboo basket" actually refers to herself!

Shen Zhou was equally furious, but he was better able to control his emotions than Yan Yaoyao.

He didn't care about endorsements, but he was competitive and had a strong sense of pride, wanting to trample Yan Qiao under his feet.

They were originally determined to win the championship, but now it's like they've fallen from a great height to the bottom of a valley, covered in mud.

They're a joke.

This realization suddenly appeared in Shen Zhou's mind, making him recall what he had done these past few days.

Why did he even appear on this show, being treated like a monkey?

Chen Zhou closed his eyes tightly, determined not to get angry. If he couldn't accept defeat, he would truly become a laughingstock.

He took several deep breaths before he could control himself and grabbed Yan Yaoyao's arm.

"It's okay, we're willing to accept the consequences of our bet."

Yan Yaoyao's eyes were red, as if she was about to shed tears at any moment.

"I'm not reconciled..."

Chen Zhou chuckled lightly, his tone tinged with disdain: "It's just a show, not worth your attention. Besides, after we get married, are you still going to be struggling in the entertainment industry? My wife only needs to know how to eat, drink, and have fun; our family doesn't need you to earn money."

Upon hearing the word "marriage," Yan Yaoyao immediately stopped crying and started laughing.

She thought she would need to put in some effort, but Shen Zhou brought up marriage directly.

To appear more reserved, she hit him.

"Who said I was going to marry you?"

Shen Zhou readily agreed, took her hand, and smiled indulgently.

"If you don't marry me, who else would you like to marry?"

In the past, the CP fans would have gone crazy.

But the way these two are behaving now is making people physically uncomfortable.

The outcome was decided, the show ended, and everyone began their journey home.

Zhang Song had the staff return everyone's luggage. Everyone would return to their original hotel, have lunch, and then head to the airport.

Ruan Cha looked at her discolored arm and compared it with Yan Qiao's, pouting.

"Qiaoqiao, how come you haven't gotten a tan at all? That's not right."

She's gotten so much darker. She just had a video call with her agent and said she'd go to a beauty salon as soon as she landed.

Yan Qiao opened her palm; although she was fair-skinned, the roughness of her palms was undeniable.

“Your hands are calloused. How about I take you to my usual beauty salon for a hand treatment?”

Yan Qiao shook her head, "I won't go."

The places Ruan Cha can go to are definitely not cheap.

She just checked her account balance and found that she only had tens of thousands of yuan in total.

After finally returning to the hotel, Yan Qiao took out clean clothes and took a shower.

Enjoying the comfort of the hotel shower, I took a bath that lasted almost an hour.

She changed into a simple white t-shirt and jeans, and after blow-drying her hair, she loosely wrapped it around her back.

The outfit was simple, but she wore it with a relaxed and carefree vibe.

After packing her things, she applied a simple, everyday lipstick and went out for lunch.

Upon arriving at the hotel restaurant, she immediately spotted Ruan Cha's location.

Quietly, we're here!

The restaurant was a buffet. Yan Qiao took a plate, picked out some dishes she wanted to eat, and sat down next to Ruan Cha.

“We haven’t added each other on WeChat yet. Scan the QR code and I’ll send you their contact information.”

Yan Qiao took out her phone and added the contact, and was then added to a small group of four people.

Next came the applications from Xi Luo and Zang Mingqi, which she approved one by one.

Xi Luo raised the teacup beside him, instantly exuding the aura of a spoiled young master from Yancheng.

"Let's have tea instead of wine, and we'll be friends from now on. If you need anything in Yancheng, you can come to me, and I'll do my best to help."

Zang Mingqi chuckled and nudged him, "With Young Master Luo's words, the three of us can walk sideways."

The four men clinked glasses and concluded their survival journey in the wilderness of Country A.

After lunch, the group headed to the airport.

Everyone else had their agents or assistants with them, but Xi Luo and Yan Qiao were the only ones left without anyone to pick them up.

Xi Luo was brought here by Pei Jingzhan's assistant. After the show ended, he declined Li Qiao's offer, saying that he could handle it himself.

He didn't have much luggage, just a backpack, so he carried Yan Qiao's suitcase over with him.

"This is my gentlemanly conduct. I've gone to so much trouble to let you experience it, so you should be grateful."

Yan Qiao then stopped fighting with him for the suitcase.

"As for Mingsheng's matter, you don't need to tell them much. I'll take care of it for you."

Yan Qiao nodded. "Thanks. Although I am but a nobody, I still want to say something: Xi Luo, if there is anything I can do to help you in the future, please feel free to come to me."

Xi Luo smiled flippantly, "Then I'll ask you to be my girlfriend, will you say yes?"

Yan Qiao said, "You're still looking for a girlfriend."

Shiloh: "Yes, we're short of them."

"I'm sorry, I refuse. I prefer someone more mature."

Xi Luo's face stiffened. "What kind of taste do you have? You like older women?"

"It's not that I'm old, it's that I'm mature. Besides, I'm going to take the college entrance exam next year, so I don't plan to date right now."

Xi Luo wasn't sad, but her face clearly showed her frustration.

He was one of the Four Young Masters of Yancheng, yet he lost because of his lack of maturity?

He just thought Yan Qiao was quite interesting, and since she was unwilling, there was no need to force her.

"After you terminate your contract, have you thought about which company you want to go to? If you want, I can recommend you to my third uncle's entertainment company. I remember that Xunyue's entertainment company is doing quite well."

"Xunyue?"

Xi Luo glanced at her. "You haven't even heard of Xun Yue?"

Yan Qiao chuckled, "How could that be? I'm not that ignorant."

Xunyue Group is a family business of the Pei family, founded in the 19th century. Originally headquartered in Hong Kong, it is a diversified multinational group based in Asia.

Otherwise, how could the Pei family be ranked as the top of the wealthy families in Yancheng? Among the established wealthy families, the Pei family's strength is definitely the most formidable.

Xunyue has a wide range of business areas, including finance, department stores, real estate, jewelry, logistics and catering. There is nothing they can't do, and they have a leading position in the market. The total number of employees worldwide exceeds 200,000.

This international conglomerate is led by the "third uncle" that Shiloh mentioned.

It is evident that this Third Master Pei possesses unique skills.

"We'll see. I haven't decided whether I still want to pursue a career in the entertainment industry."

Thinking about her family situation, Xi Luo didn't say much.

"Okay, contact me later."
