Chapter 762 Haoyue Extra (24)

Gao Yingying was really craving it. She saw fried rice cakes, spicy hot pot, potstickers, hot and sour noodles, and a milk tea shop on the street from afar!

Although it's a restaurant she rarely goes back to, the temptation of these dishes right now is undeniable.

She swallowed hard and looked at the remaining people: "How about we change to another one?"

Zhou Yang was starting to back down, mainly because he had only taken a small bite of the food in the boxed lunch and found it really not very good. The radish was too salty, the cabbage was too bland, and the rice was a bit undercooked.

He now strongly suspects that the production team deliberately put together such a perfunctory lunch to trick them into giving up their credit cards!

But what else could he do? He was completely captivated by the aromas on the street and could only compromise spinelessly: "I agree to change it too, since we haven't used a single one yet."

Tang Minghao and Song Huaiyuan, who were standing next to him, also frowned.

The latter thought for a moment and said, "We need to eat well at noon so we can have the energy to do other things in the afternoon. Besides food, we do have a lot of other things to buy."

Tang Minghao sighed: "Alright, let's change to another one..."

Just then, Wen Yue slowly spoke up: "Is it okay to pay with cash here instead of WeChat QR code?"

Everyone was stunned.

Song Huaiyuan asked from the side, "Yueyue, what do you mean?"

Wen Yue silently pulled out a few bright red banknotes from her pocket, coughed lightly, and said, "What I meant was that if cash is acceptable, I have it, so there's no need to ask the director."

Everyone: "?!?!"

The director, standing not far away: "???"

"My God, there are actually people carrying cash these days." Gao Yingying looked at the banknotes as if she were living in a dream.

"Sister Yue, how come you have money on you?!" Zhou Yang's eyes lit up, and his tone was extremely excited.

Song Huaiyuan, who was standing next to him, was also surprised. Although Wen Yue always managed to surprise them, he really didn't expect this time.

The director on the other end went completely berserk: "Yueyue, didn't we hand over our wallets and phones at the beginning? How come you're still hiding money?!"

Wen Yue said somewhat embarrassedly, "I didn't steal it. These few hundred yuan were what my mom put in my pocket for emergencies before I left. You said I had to hand over my phone and wallet, but you didn't say I had to hand over all the money in my pocket."

director:"……"

Tang Minghao, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha, Xiao Yueyue is right. We handed over our wallets and phones, but it didn't say we had to hand over all the money in our pockets!"

The production team felt like they were about to choke on their own blood.

They didn't say it, but the reason they didn't say it was because nobody carries cash these days! What they meant by handing over their wallets was actually asking them to hand over their cards to prevent unauthorized transactions.

But who would have thought that some of these people actually had cash on them!

"Director, sorry, we don't need this card. Although we don't have 800, if we're careful with our money, 500 is enough for a good meal," Tang Minghao said smugly.

director:"……"

At the same moment, in the live chat—

"Hahaha, Sister Yue is truly a genius!!"

"Check the director's current mental state with one click."

"I feel so sorry for the director, let me give him a hug, hahaha, but I still want to say that Sister Yue did a great job!"

"I want to know the size of the shadow in the director's heart."

"Sister Yue always surprises us like this. What am I going to do? I'm so engrossed in watching it that I haven't slept much these past two days, afraid of missing any funny parts."

"Hey sister in front, don't go! Count me in, I'm a sleep-deprived person..."

"Now that I'm all grown up, I finally know what it means to be unable to resist!"

"It's mainly because Sister Yue is so charming. She's kind, cute, and lovable. She's witty, loving, and funny."

"That's right, I'm watching this variety show now just for Sister Yue."

"No, I'm not. I just ship couples. I love every single one of them. I've inexplicably started buying their stocks."

"You're not the only one. I think the pairings I ship aren't just unpopular, they're downright weird."

"How so?"

"I have this strange feeling that Tang Minghao and Song Huaiyuan are a good match, rivals turned lovers..."

"Damn, this is really weird."

"It's so addictive, but somehow it does taste kind of good?!"

...

The comments section was filled with all sorts of things, but right now, the people on the screen were already running around enjoying their feast.

Although it was a small town with no particularly fancy food, everything was still new and exciting for these city dwellers who had hardly grown up in a town.

"A bowl of spicy hot pot is only eight yuan?! A bowl of that costs 38 yuan in Kyoto! And I'm not even sure I'd be full!"

"Is that a place that sells sweet fermented rice soup with glutinous rice balls? I'm so hungry!"

"These potstickers are fried perfectly, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, bursting with juice with every bite!"

"Ice cream, ice cream, just one for a quick bite."

Everyone strolled through the streets and alleys, enjoying themselves immensely.

In front of the screen—

"It made me so hungry."

"Seeing how much they're eating, my takeout suddenly doesn't taste so good anymore."

"Who's the big idiot who's eating 38 yuan worth of spicy hot pot? Oh, it's me."

...

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, they bought some cheap fruits and daily necessities at the market, and then set off on their way home, completely satisfied.

This trip made them realize that the best thing about the town was the low prices. After shopping and eating out, they were surprised to find that they still had a little over 300 yuan left!

In other words, all six of them ate and drank their fill, bought so many things, and only spent less than two hundred yuan.

It really sounds a bit unbelievable.

The group was in a much brighter mood on their way back than when they arrived. With the cool April breeze blowing and the warm sunshine basking in the sun, Gao Yingying was the first to sing.

Soon everyone else joined in the singing.

"Whenever I've been sad, or drenched by storms, flowers bloom from the mud, let them grow... Let small dreams burn brightly, unafraid to chase the wind barefoot, for after courage, there will be a clear blue sky..."

Perhaps because of this bumpy and arduous day, the six of them became much more in sync, and many of their differences and tempers gradually dissipated.

My good mood lasted all the way to the village entrance.

From a distance, the group in their tuk-tuk saw a row of houses at the village entrance that had been rearranged by the production team, with a line of bold words written on them: "Welcome to the Adventure of the Brave," along with a bloody handprint.

Everyone: "..."

"Could this be the 'surprise' the production team was talking about for today's second task?" Zhou Yang thought, feeling like cursing.

So the production team wanted them to bravely venture into a haunted house?!

Just then, Director Wu came out.

After some time, he had clearly emerged from the shadow that Wen Yue had cast over the production team, and once again revealed his usual smiling expression: "Friends, this is your second challenge for today. Let's enter this mysterious haunted house together and embark on an unknown adventure!"
