Chapter 282- Let’s Begin

After Shi Feiye confirmed that Hua Xi was alright, she quickly helped to turn the dishes over and poured some water to prevent them from getting burnt. By the time Hua Xi had calmed down and remembered her own dishes, she realized that Shi Feiye had already prepared them.

Xu Longze thanked everyone repeatedly, and especially thanked Shi Feiye. If it weren't for Shi Feiye's help, he wouldn't have had lunch today.

After this, everyone quickly became familiar with each other and chattered about the embarrassing things they had encountered when cooking in the past. Shi Feiye was flipping scrambled eggs while complaining about himself:

"The first time I cooked, my parents weren't home. I really wanted scrambled eggs with tomatoes, but I didn't know how to make it because my parents had never let me cook. I cracked the eggs whole and threw them into the pan. The result was an inedible scrambled egg with the shell still attached."

"Ye Zi's incident is nothing. It's better than when I was beating eggs and threw the eggs outside and the shells into the bowl. When I came to my senses, I was stunned." Bai Sheng showed off his embarrassing story and did not forget to show his affection:

"If it weren't for that incident, Shen Lou and I wouldn't have met. He just couldn't stand how stupid I was, so he helped me out. That's how we got to know each other."

Gu Yuan was particularly supportive: "Shen Lou is so enthusiastic. I remember that he didn't like to talk to other girls before, because many actresses were very angry about this. Could it be that he fell in love with you at first sight, so he was so kind?"

"Yes, Xiao Sheng was very cute back then." Shen Lou, who had been quiet all this time, suddenly said this, leaving everyone else stunned.

Then Xu Longze suddenly burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, Brother Shen, I always thought you were naturally indifferent to women. It turns out you just haven't met anyone you like. But now that you've met a girl you like, you immediately become proactive, hahahaha."

Bai Sheng's face flushed instantly. Shen Lou usually didn't like to say sweet words, and this was the first time he said this besides confessing his love.

As a result, the topic somehow turned to Shi Feiye and Qin Buzhu. Xu Longze asked Shi Feiye curiously:

"Sister Ye, how did you and Mr. Qin fall in love? Did you fall in love over time, or was it love at first sight?"

Xu Longze originally thought that Shi Feiye and Qin Buzhu were just in a relationship and that they were on the show for fame or Shi Feiye's career, but when they actually got on the show, they discovered that they were actually in love.

He looked carefully and confirmed that the feelings between Shi Feiye and Qin Buzhu were genuine. Generally, people without feelings would not have such tacit understanding. Moreover, the love they showed for each other was sincere, and the feelings in their eyes were also real. He saw Qin Buzhu looking at Shi Feiye several times.

"Love grows over time." Shi Feiye turned to look at Qin Bulu uncertainly.

"Love grows over time." Qin Buzhu placed the dish he was holding on the chopping board and added a few words, "I never cared about love before. I was always busy with my career and neglected Ah Ye. Later, when I finally had some time to rest, I discovered Ah Ye's good qualities. Now that I think about it, I'm so glad I had some time off, otherwise I would have missed out on such a treasure. After all, careers can be developed slowly, but if you miss the right person, it will be a lifelong regret."

This is a candid acknowledgment of the previous rumors about the two's relationship, and also a disguised answer to their emotional state. Those who made wild guesses now have a clear answer and can no longer criticize them.

"I think this should be considered as, those who are destined to be together will always fall in love, and those who are not destined to be together cannot be together even if they meet face to face." Gu Yuan was very emotional:

"And sometimes, even if you meet the right person, if you don't meet them at the right time, you might not fall in love. For example, my wife and I knew each other quite early, but by the time I suddenly realized I was falling in love with her, we'd already known each other for seven or eight years."

"Speaking of which, I'm really surprised. Brother Gu, you and Sister Ling have known each other for so long and there haven't been any rumors about you, yet suddenly there's a rumor about you getting married. Is love that sudden?" Hua Xi seemed genuinely curious.

"Yeah, it was just so sudden. Before then, there was absolutely no spark between us, but then, before we got married, I felt happy just seeing her and inexplicably cared about her. And then, when I saw her getting even slightly intimate with other men, I would get really upset."

Gu Yuan scratched his head as he spoke, as if he was also confused. He was an actor who usually acted very calm in front of others, but suddenly he made such a gesture, which looked very cute:

"It can only be attributed to fate. Before, fate hadn't arrived yet, so we didn't feel anything. Later, fate arrived and we fell in love."

Qin Buzhu actually nodded in agreement: "That's right, maybe it really is just not our destiny yet."

Shi Feiye tried not to reveal her expression, saying, "If Qin Bulu were lying, no one would be able to tell, right?" Look at what she said, it sounded so real that she, the person involved, almost believed it.

Everyone cooked while chatting, and after a long time, the meal was finally ready.

Of course, they all had lunch together. Qin Bulu discovered that Shi Feiye was truly a treasure trove of girls. Not only could she create so many different dishes with simple ingredients, but she also presented them beautifully. So, he politely cleared away all the food.

However, just after finishing the meal, Director Liu came over with a smile to hand out task cards.

Shi Feiye took the character card and saw that it actually asked them to go to the mountains to find something.

"We can find what you want just by following the instructions on the map, right?" Shi Feiye was afraid that Director Liu was setting a trap, "and then we can exchange ingredients with you based on what we find?"

"Of course, that doesn't mean you have to auction off the items you find at the platform in front of the village. Only after you sell them can you buy ingredients." Director Liu laughed and shook his head, then dropped another bombshell.

"I knew you, Director Liu, are always a swindler." Shi Feiye curled her lips, "Don't worry, we'll definitely find it."

It's true that they need to find things, but they also need to take a nap. There's only one bed in the room, so Shi Feiye and Qin Bulu naturally have to sleep together. In a place like this, even the slightest bit of intimacy would inevitably make noises, so the two of them could only sleep quietly.

When they woke up, Shi Feiye hung a small straw bag she had made earlier around Qin Buzhu's neck, and also hung one for herself.

“Is this a mosquito repellent herb?”

"Hey, you actually knew that?" Shi Feiye picked up the remaining ones.

"It's obvious." Qin Bulu helped Shi Feiye straighten her clothes after she stood up, and took the bag from her back and hung it on himself.

After going out to distribute the mosquito repellent bags to others, everyone thanked Master Feiye with surprise, and then went up the mountain.

Before going up the mountain, Shi Feiye picked up two thicker branches from the ground and gave one to Qin Buzhu. He looked like he was very familiar with the matter.

Qin Bulu didn't hesitate to take it and held Shi Feiye's hand, and the two of them walked up the mountain together.

The surrounding mountains weren't famous, and there weren't any man-made paths for people to walk on. Instead, they were all carved out by the villagers themselves. Shi Feiye walked carefully, occasionally pulling on nearby branches to steady himself and prevent himself from falling.

Whenever she staggered and was about to fall, Qin Buzhu would catch her in time, and Qin Buzhu always walked steadily, as if she was not climbing a mountain at all, but walking on a flat road.

As they walked, Shi Feiye could no longer walk. After finally reaching a relatively flat place, he took out a newspaper and put it on the stone next to him and sat down. He looked at Qin Buzhu, who was not red in the face or out of breath, and compared it with his own exhaustion and panting, he felt very dissatisfied:

"Why are you walking so easily? I'm so tired even though you're carrying a bag."

The breathless Shi Feiye's voice was soft and cute, and her words of dissatisfaction sounded like a spoiled child. Qin Buzhu took out some water from his bag and brought it to her, helped her tie her hair up again, and said seriously:

"I usually ask you to exercise more, but you refuse. I told you to carry you, but you didn't want to. Since you know it's tiring, then just let me carry you later. I didn't seem tired when I carried you to exercise before. Your worry is completely unnecessary. Don't you know how much physical strength I have?"

He put on a cold face, but the helplessness and doting in his eyes were so obvious that he couldn't hide it, not to mention how gentle his tone was. But he still said such words, and the barrage exploded again:

"What the hell, what the hell, what did I just hear? I suspect that Boss Qin is driving, but I have no evidence."

"Oh my god, am I hallucinating? You know how strong I am, hahahaha, this is just a show of affection, right?"

"Brother Qin, I never thought you were such a person. You actually said such things. Aren't you ashamed or embarrassed to say such things to your wife? Our Ye Zi is still a little cutie. Didn't you see that Ye Zi was stunned? Her face was so red."

"Why do I feel a little sore for no reason? Young ladies, you must remember that your boyfriend's physical strength is really important. It's really important."

"I'm still jealous of Ye Zi. Not only is Boss Qin handsome, he's also physically fit. Money is secondary. He dotes on his wife so much. What a perfect man he is!"

"Friends, did you hear the three words 'good physical strength'? Circle the key points as they will be tested. Men with poor physical strength are not acceptable."

Shi Feiye was going crazy. How could she, who had been writing novels and browsing Weibo for years, not guess that netizens would say that? Her face was red. .It's amazing that she has good physical strength. They usually bully her, and now they want to bully her again. She's so angry.

"I don't want to. I can do it myself. At worst, we can just walk slower."

What else could Qin Buliu do? He could only let her do what she wanted. "Okay, then let's walk slowly. Don't force yourself. If you're tired, take more rest and drink more water to avoid dehydration."
