Chapter 52

Rumors are spreading too fast on the Internet now. Jing Jianchen thought about it and decided to post Ye Lingchen's medical records. This was something the program crew had not asked clearly when they were picking up the person. He planned to discuss this matter with the director first. After all, if Ye Lingchen's condition was exposed, it would have a certain impact on the program crew.

As soon as he opened the door, he ran into Lu Yijin who was about to knock on the door, "I'm looking for Ye Chenchen."

"He's asleep."

"Did he see what happened online?"

"No."

Lu Yijin finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Someone must be slandering Ye Chenchen. Who is so mean as to bully a patient?"

"Found it, Ye Chengzong."

Lu Yijin was so angry that her face turned red. "Is this the brother who pushed Ye Chenchen down the stairs?! How could he be so mean!"

【What happened to Ye Chenchen? 】

【I smell the scent of melon.】

[Ah, who pushed Ye Lingchen? Now everyone on the internet is talking about him.]

Lu Yijin went with Jing Jianchen to discuss the matter with the director. The director agreed with Jing Jianchen's approach and said that the program team would issue an apology statement.

After consulting with the higher-ups, the director issued an apology statement overnight. The program team published the entire incident in the notice, along with Ye Lingchen's medical records, but concealed the part about his delusional disorder.

The statement from the program team caused a huge uproar. Everyone knew that Ye Lingchen came here to fill Bai Tingfei's vacancy. Unexpectedly, Ye Lingchen had lost his memory. What kind of luck was this for the program team? No wonder Ye Lingchen acted weird in it.

[Ah, Ye Lingchen actually hit his head and lost his memory?!]

[What kind of melodramatic plot is this...]

[No wonder Ye Chenchen didn't recognize his father that day. I was still wondering at that time!]

[I'm so angry, why is Ye Lingchen so pitiful! ]

[No, Ye Lingchen was sick. How could he appear on the street and be picked up by the director?]

Following the netizens' doubts, the cause and effect of the incident were directly exposed by netizens. An enthusiastic netizen who claimed to know the inside story posted a message saying that Ye Lingchen was kicked out of the hospital by his stepmother just after he woke up from the hospital.

[Oh my god, how could you treat a patient like this!]

[Wow wow wow~ My little one is so pitiful. If the production crew hadn't brought him back, he would have ended up on the streets.]

[I’m so pissed off, I’m so pissed off! I’m going to kill everyone in the Ye family!]

Public opinion online changed direction instantly. Some netizens originally blamed the program crew for arranging guests of unknown sexual orientation, but in the end everyone was glad that they were picked up by the program crew, otherwise they would really be homeless on the streets. The social accounts of the three members of the Ye family were once again compromised, and the self-proclaimed culprit Ye Chengzong was even found to have bullied his classmates at school.

The next day, Ye Zhendong almost vomited blood when he saw the public opinion online. He had been away from home for a month, and his family was in such a mess. He kicked open Ye Chengzong's bedroom door and said, "Ye Chengzong, get up!"

He pulled the person on the bed up with such force that he dragged the person off the bed and onto the ground. Ye Chengzong, who was knocked to the ground, was forced to turn on the phone. "Dad, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? What's wrong? I've been home for several days. Why didn't you and your mother tell Ye Lingchen about it?"

Ye Zhendong, who was angry, received a call from the company secretary. The company's stock price fell sharply due to the influence of public opinion. Ye Zhendong became even angrier. The damage to reputation was a small matter, but the drop in stock price was real money!

Ye Chengzong was still lying on the ground, dazed. "Ye Lingchen is participating in some variety show. He's going to be a big star like his mother soon."

"Get up, get up!" Miser Ye Zhendong pulled the man up, "Did you push Ye Lingchen down the stairs?!"

Ye Zhendong's words startled Ye Chengzong, who woke up from the shock. "I didn't do that. He slipped and fell. I was the one who called the ambulance for him."

Although Ye Chengzong felt guilty, he refused to admit that he pushed Ye Lingchen. Ye Zhendong was so angry that he pulled out his belt and hit him. "You still don't admit it, you still don't admit it. Do you know how much money I lost because of you?"

Ye Chengzong's wailing attracted Li Yao. Seeing her son's miserable state, she quickly tried to stop him. "Zhendong, what are you doing? Why are you hitting a child?"

"Mom, mom, help me, my dad wants to beat me to death." Ye Chengzong, a strong man who was almost 1.8 meters tall, cried with tears and snot. He had been spoiled since he was a child and had never suffered such hardship.

"Son, son, are you okay?" Li Yao touched his son's arm with concern, and there were red and swollen belt marks on it.

Ye Chengzong cried out in pain as he was pressed down, and his nose and tears were streaming.

"What are you doing? Will you be happy only if Chengzong is beaten to death?" Li Yao started to throw a tantrum when she saw her son being attacked by her.

"It's all your fault. Now, the stock price of my subsidiary company has plummeted as low as the green grassland!" Other things were fine for Ye Zhendong, but this time, it directly hit his vitals. That was the money he had worked so hard to earn, and it was gone just like that!

"I'm used to it. Chengzong is not your son, that Ye Lingchen is!"

"You, you, you, your living expenses will be cut off from today! Ye Chengzong, you better behave yourself at home, you're making me so mad!" Ye Zhendong threw the whip and walked away holding his pants.

He now had to think of how to restore the company's reputation. All that was lost was money! This, this was going to cost him his life!

Ye Lingchen's crisis was successfully resolved this time. Several groups of guests in the villa knew about Ye Lingchen. Qiao An then understood. No wonder Ye Lingchen reacted so strongly yesterday. It turned out that he didn't even know that this was a dating show!

After getting up today, Jing Jianchen sat on the balcony to accompany the person who was sleeping. The person was lying on the snow-white sheets with messy hair scattered on the fluffy pillow, and his thin lips were slightly pursed as he slept soundly.

Fortunately, the online incident this time calmed down quickly, and Ye Lingchen didn't know what happened. If Ye Chengzong had hurt Ye Lingchen, he would never let him go.

Ye Lingchen slept until almost nine o'clock in the morning without waking up. In the middle of the night, Lu Yijin came to see him quietly. He thought Ye Lingchen was just sleeping in, so he went downstairs to keep his breakfast warm.

Ye Lingchen had slept enough and when he opened his eyes, he saw Jing Jianchen beside him. He stretched comfortably, his mind still not clear, "Master."

"Awake, does your head hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt." Ye Lingchen slumped over the bed twice, and the memory of yesterday suddenly came back to him. The smile on Ye Lingchen's face froze when he remembered. What did he do yesterday?

He held on to the tutor tightly and crawled back and forth on the bed. Ye Lingchen pulled up the quilt and buried himself little by little. It was so embarrassing!

When Jing Jianchen saw his expression, he knew that Ye Lingchen was remembering what happened yesterday. The corners of his mouth raised slightly, how cute.

"Get up and eat. Lu Yijin came up to look for you just now."

"No, no, it's too embarrassing."

"It's okay, no one saw it."

"real?"

"real."

[Yes, yes, yes, we didn’t see it hehehe~]

[I didn’t see it either, I’m blind~]

[Brother Chen bullied Ye Chenchen because he had lost his memory, and actually lied to our cute little bunny like this.]

[Baby, give me a hug. I'm so heartbroken.]

[It's okay, Mom has plenty of money. She's already sold your jerk dad's stocks!]

After hearing that no one saw him going crazy yesterday, Ye Lingchen sat up from the quilt. He then remembered that he had forgotten to ask an important question yesterday. He rubbed the corner of the quilt in his hands, but didn't know how to say it.

Jing Jianchen had been with him for so long that he knew all of Ye Lingchen's little movements. "What's the matter?"

"Master, this is a love story, why are you here?"

"Do my friend a favor."

Hearing this, Ye Lingchen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "You like men?"

Jing Jianchen nodded, and Ye Lingchen's expression went blank. "No wonder you were almost thirty and still hadn't married."

Ye Lingchen came over and said, "Master, can we go home now?"

"No, there are still more than two weeks left. We will go home after the filming is finished."

"Can't we just not take the photo?"

"Then not only will you and I not get our wages, but we will also have to pay them a sum of money as compensation."

Ye Lingchen, who was already poor, immediately quit. When he was a prince, he could be said to be rich enough to rival a country, but now he only has a cheap father and is extremely poor.

"Then, what if they come to confess to me?"

"It's okay. If you don't like it, just reject it." Jing Jianchen said soothingly, "Get up and wash up. We'll go downstairs to eat."

[Zizi, please don’t quit the variety show! ]

【I won’t watch it without you! 】

As soon as they heard that Ye Lingchen was thinking of quitting the variety show, his fans immediately started throwing a tantrum in the comments, all of them shouting "Hey, bastard, don't leave!"

Today, the other guests were all sitting on the sofa downstairs in tacit agreement. When they heard someone coming down from upstairs, they all looked up. Ye Lingchen was so scared that he grabbed Jing Jianchen's sleeve and hid behind him. He muttered softly, "Master, Master, why are they all looking at me?"

Jing Jianchen glanced downstairs, and the others pretended to be nonchalant and looked away, "No, they're not looking at you."

Ye Lingchen secretly stuck his head out and looked down. Some people were watching TV, and some were drinking tea. It seemed like it was just an illusion. Ye Lingchen quietly went downstairs. Ever since he knew that this was a dating variety show yesterday, Ye Lingchen no longer dared to waste time.

He remembered how he and Lu Xiaojin were arm in arm, how he and Meng Zhanyang were playing games together, and how Qiao An stripped him naked to change his clothes. He wanted to kill himself by banging his head against his head. What had he done before? How was this different from those playboys in the capital before?

Ye Lingchen followed Jing Jianchen downstairs stealthily. When Lu Yijin saw him coming, he huddled close to him affectionately. "Ye Chenchen, I cooked corn and Beibei pumpkin this morning. Let's go eat."

Lu Yijin took Ye Lingchen's hand and dragged him to the dining table. Ever since he found out yesterday that this was a modern version of a blind date, Ye Lingchen had felt uncomfortable. The rubbish director lied to him. Didn't he say it was about making friends? You call this making friends!

Ye Lingchen now wanted to blow the director's head off. Is the atmosphere in this era so open that same-sex blind dates are allowed? What did he do in the past? He was always hanging out with this and that guy. No wonder Lu Yijin confessed to him. It was hard not to cause misunderstandings!

Lu Yijin attentively placed the breakfast in front of Ye Lingchen, holding her chin and looking at him lovingly, "Eat quickly, it will get cold soon."

Ye Lingchen got goosebumps from watching him, "Lu Xiaojin, be more normal."

Lu Yijin put his hands down and sat opposite Ye Lingchen like a good baby. Hehehe, Ye Chenchen is so cute~

Ye Lingchen felt that ever since he knew the truth, he always felt that there were several pairs of eyes looking at him from behind. He turned around and saw that everyone behind him was staring at the TV with serious eyes. He clearly remembered that Qiao An was reading the newspaper in her hand just now, so why was he watching TV now?

Ye Lingchen turned his head to eat his breakfast. When he turned around, the other people were still sitting there watching TV. He was caught off guard and met Meng Zhanyang's eyes.

The caught Meng Zhanyang grinned at him with his teeth bared. He turned his head slowly like a rusty robot. Ye Lingchen glared back fiercely, "What are you looking at!"

Jing Jianchen coughed softly, and the people sitting on the sofa immediately stood up and left as if nothing had happened.

"I went out for a walk. Oh, the sun is so nice this morning~" Meng Zhanyang walked away, whistling with his hands behind his back. As soon as he left the house, he gossiped with Qiao An like a civet cat that had eaten a melon, "Qiao An, I confessed my love to Ye Lingchen yesterday. How was it? Did it not work out? Hahaha~"

Qiao An was wearing casual men's clothing today. He stepped on Meng Zhanyang's sneakers and said, "If you don't shut up, the next time I step on you, I'll use high heels."

Meng Zhanyang jumped away with a cry, "Qiao An, these are limited edition sneakers."

Qiao An rolled her eyes and Meng Zhanyang immediately shut up. He still muttered unconvincedly, "Who would like you when you're so fierce?"

"Huh? What are you talking about?" Qiao An suddenly turned her head and hit Meng Zhanyang in the face with her high ponytail. Meng Zhanyang screamed and covered his nose again.

Qiao An crossed her arms and raised her lips slightly. "The director didn't say Ye Lingchen doesn't like men. It's fine if he likes women. When Xiao Ye saw me for the first time, her face turned red. Tsk, so cute."

"Come on, even if Ye Lingchen likes Lu Yijin, he won't like you." Meng Zhanyang said again in a mean way.

"Humph, I heard someone dived into the green belt and threatened to withdraw from the competition. But when he saw Ye Lingchen, his eyes lit up and he refused to run."

"Well, well, well..." Meng Zhanyang hesitated for a long time but couldn't say anything.

"It's just because I like her looks that I have the courage to confess my feelings to her, unlike someone who still only dares to drag her to play games." Qiao An mocked mercilessly.

Meng Zhanyang had originally given up on pursuing Ye Lingchen, but Qiao An's words instantly aroused his rebellious spirit, "Who said that? It's just a confession, what's there for me to be afraid of?"

"Okay, then go ahead~" Qiao An was waiting to see his good show.

Meng Zhanyang turned around and left, "I'll go right away!"

[Brother, you finally remembered this is a dating show?!]

[Finally, I’m going to confess, rubbing my hands~]

[Ahhh, hyung, is this the right time for you?!]

[I have a bad feeling...]

Meng Zhanyang turned around and went to the villa to look for Ye Lingchen. His dog crouched at the door like a thief, peeking inside. There was no sign of Ye Lingchen in the living room, so he breathed a sigh of relief. "No one's here. Another time."

"You don't dare, do you?" Qiao An, who was following behind him, said with his arms folded.

"Who said I don't dare!" Meng Zhanyang looked around again to look for someone.

Hearing that Meng Zhanyang was going to confess, Gu Zheye and a few others also followed. Meng Zhanyang, who had already started to back down, saw this posture and knew that Bai had to confess today, so Meng Zhanyang had no choice but to go find Ye Lingchen.

With a bunch of onlookers following behind him, he finally found Ye Lingchen relaxing on a beach chair by the pool. Meng Zhanyang swallowed hard, not daring to approach. Everyone now knew Ye Lingchen had been tricked into coming here by the director. Judging by the way Ye Lingchen was shying away from them, it was clear that he didn't like men. Wouldn't he be walking into a minefield if he went up there?!

The onlookers behind him waited for a long time but Meng Zhanyang didn't come forward. Qiao An raised his foot and kicked Meng Zhanyang on the butt, "Go quickly."

Meng Zhanyang was kicked so hard that he almost fell to the ground. He turned around and glared at the people around the corner. None of them were good people! Now he could only bite the bullet and move forward.

Qiao An, Gu Zheye, He Qingshui, Edith and others were lying in the corner like stacked cats, stretching their heads to look over here. Meng Zhanyang was a brave man for daring to confess to Ye Lingchen at this time!

Meng Zhanyang rubbed his hands awkwardly and moved over. He did fall in love with Ye Lingchen at first sight. Ye Lingchen's appearance met his aesthetic standards in every way, especially his noble temperament which almost fascinated him to death. It was a pity that his young heart was strangled in the cradle as soon as it began to stir.

He quietly moved to Ye Lingchen's side and poked his shoulder with his finger, "Ye Lingchen, Ye Lingchen."

Ye Lingchen, who was almost asleep from the sun, was startled. He opened his eyes quickly and asked, "What?"

"Ye Lingchen, I have something to tell you." Meng Zhanyang grinned foolishly with his teeth bared, which gave Qiao An goosebumps. Hey, why does this guy act like a fool?

"What are you doing?" Lu Yijin suddenly appeared behind a few onlookers with a fruit plate.

Qiao An shushed him and motioned him to come over and watch the show. Lu Yijin walked over confused and looked at Meng Zhanyang by the swimming pool. Lu Yijin immediately understood what was going on. He was about to speak when Qiao An covered his mouth and dragged him over. "Shh, I'll be over there in a minute."

"Where is Jing Jianchen?" Gu Zheye asked in a low voice.

Lu Yijin pulled the hands off her face and said, "Teacher Jing went to the second floor to get some snacks for Ye Chenchen. She will be back soon."

"It's okay. We'll hold Jing Jianchen back when he gets here." Qiao An said, looking towards the pool. "What is this stupid dog dawdling about?"

Ye Lingchen lifted his eyelids and glanced at the person standing in front of him, "What's the matter? Go away and don't block my sun."

"That Ye Lingchen, you know, ever since I first saw you, I've been...ah!"

The howl scared the people at the corner so much that they trembled. They were too far away to hear what Meng Zhanyang was saying. They only saw Ye Lingchen, who was lying on the beach chair, kick the person standing in front of him directly into the swimming pool. Meng Zhanyang screamed and fell into the swimming pool in a beautiful parabola.

Ye Lingchen leisurely withdrew his foot, "Are you awake now?"

[Hahahaha, I'm sorry, hahaha~]

[Whose good guy confessed and got kicked away, hahaha~]

A few onlookers came out, and Lu Yijin hopped and put the fruit plate in his hand on the small table next to Ye Lingchen, "Eat some fruit~"

Qiao An squatted by the pool and watched the people mocking him mercilessly. "How is it? It feels a lot cooler in the water, right?"

Meng Zhanyang doggy-paddled in the water, "Help, help! I can't swim!"

Qiao An flicked her delicate crimson nails and said, "Do you still dare to mock me?"

"I don't dare, I don't dare anymore, brother, brother, help me!"

Qiao An calmly took off his shoes, then dived into the water and swam to Meng Zhanyang like a nimble silver fish. He reached out and picked up the person flapping in the water.

Meng Zhanyang drank a few sips of water and grabbed at the straw. Like a sloth, Meng Zhanyang wrapped his arms and legs around Qiao An. Qiao An choked on the water. He raised his hand and slapped Meng Zhanyang on the head, "Let go! If you keep moving, I'll be drowned!"

Meng Zhanyang, who was beaten, did not dare to move. He pestered Qiao An and said pitifully, "Brother, help me."

Only then did Qiao An raise her head from Meng Zhanyang's chest muscles. This idiot almost suffocated himself to death with his chest muscles!

"Shut up, aren't we saving people?!" Qiao An rolled her eyes at him in annoyance. A grown man just went into the water, was that really enough to cost him his life?!

Qiao An was soaked in the water, his whole body wet. His long hair was scattered on his shoulders, revealing his charming facial features. Meng Zhanyang was dazed for a moment, and his mind became a mess again.

The person opposite was like a siren emerging from the water. He held the waist in his arms and gave it a slender grip. While Meng Zhanyang was still in a daze, Qiao An raised his hand and slapped him again, "Go!"

Standing by the swimming pool, Lu Yijin whispered, "Well, you can actually stand up."

"Huh?"

Qiao An tugged at the person hanging on him, "Did you hear me? You can stand up here! Get down!"

Meng Zhanyang obviously didn't believe it. He carefully got off Qiao An's body. After he stood up, he found that the water in the swimming pool was only up to his shoulders. Meng Zhanyang's mouth twitched. This is so embarrassing! He might as well have drowned!

Jing Jianchen, who went to the second floor to get snacks, also came back. He knew what had happened through the barrage. He glanced at the people in the swimming pool expressionlessly, then put the bag in his hand on the snack plate next to Ye Lingchen.

Ye Lingchen just lay on the beach chair and watched that idiot Meng Zhanyang splashing in the water.

Seeing that the person was fine, Qiao An paddled the water and swam towards the shore. Meng Zhanyang saw that the person had left and quickly reached out to grab Qiao An's arm, "Brother, I'm scared."

"What are you afraid of, a grown man?" Qiao An was speechless. He thought the water was very deep at first, but it turned out that the tall Meng Zhanyang had no problem standing in it at all.

"I'm just scared. The water is a bit deep." Meng Zhanyang held Qiao An's wrist tightly.

Qiao An had no choice but to lead the people soaking in the water to the shore. Meng Zhanyang, who was pulling something in his hand, finally calmed down. What if he, a landlubber, was afraid of water? What if he was swollen?!

The white shirt on Qiao An in front was completely wet, and the clothes were stuck to Qiao An's back, revealing the pink flowers on the back. Meng Zhanyang stretched out his head to take a look. He thought that Qiao An's clothes with small flowers inside were wet and exposed, which looked pretty good.

Meng Zhanyang was carried out of the swimming pool by Qiao An like a dead dog. Ye Lingchen swung his legs leisurely, "What were you trying to say just now?"

"No, no!" Meng Zhanyang was afraid that Ye Lingchen would kick him into the swimming pool again, so he ran away wet.

Joan brushed her wet hair and left.

Ever since Ye Lingchen found out that this was a dating show, he completely gave up. He counted on his fingers every day when it would end so he could collect his salary.

"There are still eight days left, it feels so long~" Ye Lingchen sighed with a dried fish in his mouth.

"It will be quick." Jing Jianchen considerately opened the snack bag for him and put it to his mouth.

Lu Yijin also came over, "Ye Chenchen, after we are eliminated, we will go out and play together~"

"Okay, okay." Ye Lingchen nodded in agreement. As soon as he got the salary, he left immediately. He was a prince of a great generation, but he had fallen to the point of working for others. It was all his fault that he was such an incompetent stepfather. If his royal brother was still alive, how could he let him be so poor?

【Ah, it’s almost over?!】

[Someone hurry up! I still want to see Ye Chenchen and Lu Xiaojin!]

[It's over, it's over. Lu Xiaojin now seems to have no interest in the other guests.]

When they heard that the first episode of the variety show was about to end, and their cloud-raised babies still hadn’t been matched with a suitable partner, the fans of the two became anxious. If they were not matched successfully, it would mean that they would be eliminated. No way!

[Brother Chen, please hurry up! I'm so anxious!]

[My little one must not be eliminated! ]

Not only the audience is anxious, even he, the director, is anxious. The first season is almost over, but it seems that none of his guests have found a stable match. He is so anxious that his few pitiful hairs are starting to fall out again. I hope he won't be without guests for the second season's theme of passionate love!

The program team simply turned on the punishment mode, forcing the guests to complete a punishment task by drawing lots every day. The guests who drew a white ball in the box would be punished, and the number of white balls was fixed every day.

When Ye Lingchen heard the production team announce this rule, he wailed. He just wanted to live here and wait for death. Ye Lingchen knocked his head against Jing Jianchen's arm, "Why is time passing so slowly?"

When the box was moved in front of Ye Lingchen, he had to reach out and take out a ball from it. Ye Lingchen held it in his hand and took a look at it quietly. He spread out on the sofa with the ball in his hand. Why was he so unlucky!

The other guests also showed the balls in their hands one after another. Unfortunately, Lu Yijin drew a white ball. Just when everyone thought there was only one white ball, Ye Lingchen showed his own ball.

Meng Zhanyang laughed out loud without giving any face, "Hahahaha, who told you to kick me into the swimming pool today, hahaha~"

As soon as Meng Zhanyang finished speaking, he received several people's contempt, which scared him so much that he immediately retracted his bared teeth. Why was he so fierce? Wasn't he just gloating?

"Okay, Xiao Ye and Xiao Lu, please open the white balls in your hands." said the staff.

Ye Lingchen decisively unscrewed the ball. "Cooking? Lu Xiaojin, what's yours?"

"Invite a passerby on the street to dinner." Lu Yijin couldn't believe what kind of punishment he drew. This was almost killing him. Asking a socially anxious person to invite people on the street, Lu Yijin wanted to bury himself in the quilt just thinking about it.

"Okay, the punished guests, please complete your tasks quickly~" the staff of the program team urged.

Lu Yijin raised her hand tremblingly, "Um, can I switch with Ye Chenchen?"

The little sister raised a smile and said, "No~"

Lu Yijin went out alone, feeling aggrieved. He kept looking back at Ye Lingchen and asked, unwilling to give up, "Am I the only one who can go?"

"Yes~" the young lady said sweetly.

This sweet smile looked like the devil's smile to Lu Yijin. This punishment task was simply going to cost him his life!

After Lu Yijin left, Ye Lingchen also began his deadly punishment. Ye Lingchen looked at Jing Jianchen for help, "I can't do it."

"I'll help you." Jing Jianchen had a smile in his eyes.

"Teacher Jing, you can't do that~" the staff member said nearby, "You can only answer Xiaoye's questions, you can't help with anything else~"

"Okay." Ye Lingchen came to the kitchen and looked at the stove with a confused look on his face. Lu Yijin usually did the cooking, and he had only gone in to hang out a few times.

Jing Jianchen found a recipe for him and asked, "Look at what to make?"

Ye Lingchen flipped through the book a few times, picked out a few that looked simple, and then started rummaging through the refrigerator with the book. "Stir-fried vegetables, they're all green, so they should all be the same."

Ye Lingchen casually took out a bunch of leeks. Jing Jianchen, who was standing next to him, wanted to remind him that he had taken the wrong one, but he was stopped by the staff just as he was about to speak.

"There's also scrambled eggs with tomatoes." Ye Lingchen took out the ingredients from the refrigerator while reading a book.

Jing Jianchen frowned when he saw the ingredients Ye Lingchen took out. He guessed that everyone would go hungry today.

Ye Lingchen quickly gathered out the ingredients he needed. As he was cooking, he found that cooking seemed a bit fun. The way he used the knife to cut the vegetables made Jing Jianchen's heart hang in the air, fearing that he would cut his fingers, but surprisingly, Ye Lingchen's potato shreds were cut neatly.

Jing Jianchen couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Ye Lingchen could cook, but had forgotten this skill after losing his memory? What he didn't know was that Ye Lingchen was quite skilled with a sword, and chopping vegetables was a piece of cake for him.

"Jing Jianchen, Jing Jianchen, how do you light this? Oil, is this oil? Where's the salt, where's the salt, is this it? What is chicken essence? And what is soy sauce?"

"Xiao Ye, you can't ask everything. You can look for it in the kitchen with the help of a book." The director said while holding up a small loudspeaker. It would be fun if you couldn't cook.

Ye Lingchen was like a curious baby in the kitchen. After Jing Jianchen could no longer provide him with any help, Ye Lingchen had no choice but to take the recipe and look for seasonings one by one in the kitchen.

"A little bit of oil, how much exactly is a little bit?" Ye Lingchen was puzzled by the "a little bit" on the recipe. What new unit of measurement was this?

Ye Lingchen took the oil bottle and poured half of it in, which made his fans tremble. Is he going to drink this much?!

Ye Lingchen cracked an egg, and the egg and the shell fell into the bowl. Ye Lingchen used chopsticks to pick up the eggshell for a long time but failed. In the end, he got so angry that he looked around and saw no one around, so he just picked up the bowl and went over to pinch the eggshell out.

There were clanging sounds and crackling sounds from Ye Lingchen's side, coupled with his screams. Looking at Jing Jianchen, afraid that he would hurt himself, Ye Lingchen was cooking in the kitchen as if he was dismantling it.

Meng Zhanyang looked at his flustered appearance and laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist, "Hahaha, Ye Lingchen, please don't blow up the kitchen, hahaha~"

Ye Lingchen held a spatula in one hand and the pot lid in the other as a shield to block the splattering oil. He looked even more nervous than if he were sent into battle. Ye Lingchen was already getting a headache from the oil splashed by the Pili vote campaign, and that idiot Meng Zhanyang was still yelling, "If you don't shut up, I'll knock your head off with a spatula, believe it or not."

"Believe it, believe it, hahahaha~" Meng Zhanyang was almost laughing like crazy.

Jing Jianchen glanced at him and said, "You are the one who cleans the kitchen, and you have to eat too."

Meng Zhanyang stopped laughing instantly. Looking at the fried kitchen, Meng Zhanyang could no longer laugh. When he saw Ye Lingchen pouring vinegar into the pot, he had a premonition that today's dinner might not be so pleasant.

[You laugh, you laugh~]

"Brother, why aren't you smiling? Didn't you look so pretty with your big white teeth just now?"

[Meng Zhanyang: I don't like to laugh by nature.]

Ye Lingchen was cooking in the kitchen, while Lu Yijin had been sent to a busy street by the program crew. Lu Yijin was wearing a hat, a mask, and sunglasses on his nose. He was so heavily dressed that anyone who didn't know him would think he was here to rob.

Lu Yijin stood on the roadside for a long time, and many passers-by looked over. It's not summer yet, isn't it hot to wrap yourself up so tightly?

Lu Yijin was already nervous, and when passersby saw him approaching, he became even more nervous. The staff member urged him, "Xiao Lu, stand here so no one can bump into you."

[Look how difficult it is for our little deer.]

[Baby, where are you? I'll be there right away!]

[I'm going, all of you get out of the way!]

Qin Jinyan walked back and forth beside Lu Yijin three times, but the little crybaby didn't move an inch. Even if Lu Yijin wasn't anxious, Qin Jinyan would be anxious. When he learned about Lu Yijin's task, he immediately drove over from the company, fearing that the spot would be snatched away by others.

Qin Jinyan's assistant was watching from the side and wanted to push the man in front of their President Qin. He had followed their President Qin for so many years and finally waited for their President Qin to bloom. The assistant was so moved that he shed tears on the spot.

Lu Yijin, the little crybaby, didn't dare to talk to anyone. Qin Jinyan looked at the assistant, and the assistant immediately understood and went to find the program crew.

At the urging of the program team, Lu Yijin finally took the tentative step. There were people coming and going on the pedestrian street. Qin Jinyan was afraid that the little crybaby would pull someone on the street, so he walked over again. The assistant immediately squeezed over from behind Lu Yijin, secretly reached out and pushed Lu Yijin forward.

Lu Yijin, who didn't look at the road, bumped into the person in front of him. Lu Yijin quickly apologized: "Yes, yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it."

Lu Yijin's old nervousness came back, and tears welled up in her eyes.

The assistant who had successfully pushed the ball left without taking credit for it. Qin Jinyan hugged the person who had bumped into him and asked, "Are you hurt?"

Lu Yijin shook his head so hard that his hat flew off. Qin Jinyan chuckled and walked to the side of the road with his men, "It's me."

Only then did Lu Yijin see who he had bumped into: the boss of this variety show! He was so scared that tears fell from his eyes. "Yes, yes, I'm sorry!"

The sound was so loud that passersby looked sideways. Qin Jinyan frowned slightly. Why was she crying again? Did he scare her? Qin Jinyan tried to relax his tone and said, "It's okay. Why did you come out alone?"

"I have something to do." Lu Yijin said in a low voice.

[Woohoo! It's actually the CEO of Shengtian Media!]

[I think I saw him walk twice just now?]

[Sister, you read that right. I saw it in the corner of the screen just now. It happened three times!]

[You're not interested in our Lu Xiaojin, are you?]

"What mission?" Qin Jinyan asked knowingly.

"Invite them back for dinner." Lu Yijin said in a low voice.

"Okay, let's go now." Qin Jinyan pulled Lu Yijin's wrist and got into his car. When Lu Yijin reacted, the car had already driven two miles. His mission was completed so easily? He still didn't understand how he invited Qin Jinyan.

Being in the same space with the powerful Qin Jinyan, Lu Yijin stealthily moved to the side. Qin Jinyan, who was sitting upright, glanced to the side from time to time, like a little rabbit, so cute.

"My hat."

"What?"

"I lost my hat."

"It's okay, I'll ask my assistant to help you find it." Qin Jinyan finally succeeded in getting in touch with Lu Yijin again. He was in a good mood and gave his assistant a bonus when he returned.

[Boss, it seems our Lu Xiaojin didn't invite you, did he? ]

[It's really hard not to suspect you have some bad intentions when you're so proactive, dog head~]

Qin Jinyan coughed softly, and Lu Yijin trembled in fear. The corners of Qin Jinyan's mouth curled up. Why are you so timid? He took out a bottle of yogurt from the small freezer in the middle and asked, "Do you want some?"

Lu Yijin shook her head. Qin Jinyan twisted the yogurt and put it in Lu Yijin's hand as if he didn't see it. "Drink it."

Lu Yijin sipped the ice-cold yogurt, and his dizzy head finally cleared up a little.

"Can I add your contact information?" Qin Jinyan showed his little green goose QR code. He was still upset that the little crybaby didn't see the business card he left last time.

Lu Yijin frantically took out his phone. He was so nervous that he forgot how to scan the QR code to add a friend. Qin Jinyan reached out and took the phone from Lu Yijin, "I'll do it."

When the slightly cool fingers touched his own, Lu Yijin almost threw his phone away.

Qin Jinyan took Lu Yijin's hand and successfully added the little green goose. He also used Lu Yijin's phone to send himself a small sun pattern, and then returned the phone to Lu Yijin, "Okay."

Lu Yijin leaned against the car door and sipped the yogurt in his hand. What a coincidence, this yogurt was from the brand he liked best.

Neither of them spoke, they just sat in the car silently and sped towards the villa.

When the two of them walked into the living room together, everyone at the table where Joan was eating looked over and stood up quickly, wondering why the sponsor had suddenly come over.

Qin Jinyan waved his hand and said, "I'm just a guest, don't worry about me."

Qiao An and the other three then sat down to continue their meal. After they had finished their meal, Ye Lingchen was still busy in the kitchen, making noises and the food was not ready yet.

Hearing the voice, Ye Lingchen poked his head out from the kitchen, "Lu Xiaojin, you're back~" When he saw the person next to Lu Yijin, Ye Lingchen froze for a moment, then retracted his head and continued to prepare his dinner. Why did that person come? As soon as he saw him, he thought of his royal brother.

Chef Ye brought the meal he had cooked and placed it on the table. "Lu Xiaojin, come and eat."

Jing Jianchen helped him serve the dishes. Looking at this weird dinner, Jing Jianchen looked calm. The five people sitting in front of the table had different expressions. Meng Zhanyang looked like a dead pig with his jaw dropped. What the hell is this!

The only thing that looked normal on the table was the white rice in front of him. Meng Zhanyang almost broke his back teeth when he took a bite. How was this rice steamed? It was even undercooked!

Meng Zhanyang was about to babble when Jing Jianchen stopped him with a look, "Eat it! Ye Lingchen worked so hard to make this. Don't waste it."

Lu Yijin held his chopsticks, unsure which dish to start with. What was this pitch-black thing? And why were the eggs the same color as the dragon fruit? The best-looking dish on the table was the shredded potatoes, perfectly cut. Lu Yijin politely reached for them, taking a bite. He wanted to vomit, but he didn't dare.

The shredded potatoes were so sour that he almost cried. Why was there ginger in them?

The fans who were watching Ye Lingchen's actions the whole time were gloating as they watched the few people eating.

[Eat, eat, eat quickly~]

[Hahaha, what kind of cooking genius is Ye Chenchen? I'm laughing~]

[Scrambled eggs with dragon fruit, stir-fried whole chives, shredded potatoes with ginger, and that black eggplant, hahaha~]

[I'm so funny! Even the school cafeteria lady was so impressed by this new cuisine! Hahaha~]

Jing Jianchen ate all the dishes with an expressionless face. Ye Lingchen was about to pick up his chopsticks when Jing Jianchen stopped him. "Don't you want to eat instant noodles today? You and Lu Yijin go have some."

When Ye Lingchen heard about eating instant noodles, he immediately put down the chopsticks in his hand. Yes, he hadn't eaten instant noodles for a long time!

When Lu Yijin was called, he immediately went to the kitchen to cook instant noodles. Meng Zhanyang looked at the table full of black and pink dishes and wanted to eat instant noodles too.

Jing Jianchen pushed the plate of dragon fruit and scrambled eggs in front of Meng Zhanyang and said, "Eat it."

Meng Zhanyang, who had been madly mocking Ye Lingchen's cooking today, couldn't laugh anymore. He gritted his teeth and took a bite with chopsticks. There was a smacking sound in his mouth, and Meng Zhanyang spat the whole thing into the trash can. "The color is unappetizing, and why is there still an eggshell in it?"

Qin Jinyan was drinking tea on the side, looking nonchalant. Jing Jianchen looked over and said, "Mr. Qin, don't you want to try it? Weren't you invited by Lu Yijin to dinner?"

"No, I still want to eat instant noodles." Qin Jinyan was unwilling to pick up his chopsticks.

Jing Jianchen calmly ate two bowls of half-cooked rice. He also took a good portion of each of the various dishes. Seeing how relishing he was eating, Meng Zhanyang tremblingly reached out his chopsticks to take a bite from each dish. His face wrinkled like a bitter melon after eating so much. "What kind of kitchen genius is Ye Lingchen! Why is this eggplant sweet? And the potatoes are stuffed with shredded ginger. What a talent!"

Jing Jianchen raised his eyes and looked over. "If you don't want to eat, shut up."

[Hiss, Brother Chen, love really makes people blind! ]

[Ah, I declare that Brother Chen is absolutely in love with Ye Chenchen! He can really eat it!]

[I'm the one who uses the word "dark cuisine" to describe Ye Lingchen's cooking skills. This cooking is amazing!]

Ye Lingchen and Lu Yijin quickly came out with two bowls of instant noodles. Lu Yijin's cooking skills were quite good. The instant noodles were topped with eggs and prawns, and paired with vegetables, they looked very appetizing.

Meng Zhanyang swallowed his saliva, "Anything else?"

"Oh, you want to eat too?" Lu Yijin cooked two bowls. If he didn't eat the rice that his little Baicai had worked so hard to make, how could he eat instant noodles? He didn't have any!

Qin Jinyan pushed the bowl in front of him in front of Lu Yijin. Lu Yijin pretended not to see it and almost buried his head in the bowl. Qin Jinyan coughed lightly and said, "Didn't you say you were here to treat me to a meal?"

Lu Yijin then picked up a few instant noodles with chopsticks and put them into Qin Jinyan's bowl, then stretched out a finger and pushed them back to him. Qin Jinyan's mouth curled up slightly. There were so many people who wanted to treat him to a meal, but this little guy was so stingy that he only gave himself a few instant noodles and was reluctant to even give himself a shrimp.

Qin Jinyan started eating patiently. Jing Jianchen was the only one at the table who was eating the food seriously. Ye Lingchen even enthusiastically put a handful of shredded potatoes into Jing Jianchen's bowl. "Isn't it amazing that I can cook four dishes on my first try?"

"Yeah, very good." Jing Jianchen started eating with great courtesy.

"Meng Zhanyang, come and try... my cooking." Ye Lingchen was quite proud. He was really amazing!

Meng Zhanyang picked up a piece of shredded potato with his chopsticks. Ye Lingchen looked at him with sparkling eyes. "Is it delicious?"

"These potatoes are cut very evenly."

"That's right, don't you see who I am?" Ye Lingchen wanted to show his cooking skills to the whole world. He was really capable!

Ye Lingchen had a great liking for Qin Jinyan, who looked exactly like his brother. He pushed his masterpiece towards Qin Jinyan and asked, "Do you want to eat it?"

Qin Jinyan was about to refuse when his friend looked over. Qin Jinyan had no choice but to pick up his chopsticks and take a bite of the shredded potatoes. The sour taste almost made him lose his sense of taste. He swallowed it with an expressionless face. Under Jing Jianchen's gaze, he had to compliment them against his will, "It's delicious."

[President Qin, don’t you feel any pangs of conscience? Hahaha~]

[Jing Jianchen: Do you dare to say it tastes bad?]

Qin Jinyan was making his own calculations in his mind. The little crybaby's different treatment of Ye Lingchen was too obvious. Ye Lingchen's bowl was full of shrimps, but when it came to him, he was given a few instant noodles. He had to accept Ye Lingchen, his love rival. Isn't it just like recognizing a younger brother?
