[Hahaha, Mr. Si is so cute. ］
[don't want! So arrogant. ］
[Mr. Si must be jealous. ］
[The off-road motorcycle that Mr. Si showed just now was a typical peacock spreading its feathers, which was very attractive. ］
[Hahaha, if you don’t want a wife, I’ll take her away. ］
Wen Zhi obviously didn't realize that he would be rejected, and his whole expression showed a moment of loss and sadness.
There was moisture in her beautiful eyes, giving people the illusion that she was about to cry.
He held his helmet, his eyes full of grievance.
When Si Mingchen saw him like this, a trace of regret flashed across his eyes. Before he could open his mouth, Wen Zhi had already trotted over to the motorcycle and sat on it at lightning speed, looking like he was playing tricks:
"I'm going to sit, or you'll throw me off."
...
...
Si Mingchen curled his lips quietly, got off the off-road motorcycle with his long legs, and walked towards Wen Zhi.
Wen Zhi immediately looked at him warily, thinking that Si Mingchen was really going to throw him down.
Si Mingchen reached out, took Wen Zhi's helmet, adjusted it to make it loose, and helped Wen Zhi put it on his head.
There are a few hairs on the top of Wen Zhi's head. Unless he styles his hair, they always stand up and become messy in the wind.
Si Mingchen smoothed his hair and tidied up the loose hair on his temples and forehead to prevent it from blocking his vision.
Si Mingchen didn't show any extra expression, as if it was just a routine matter, but the gentle strength of his touch was only felt by Wen Zhi, the person involved.
Wen Zhi didn't know where to put her hands, and the tingling sensation on her face gradually made her blush and her heart beat faster. Finally, he held Si Mingchen's waist, leaned against his chest like a boneless person, and listened quietly to the heartbeat in his chest.
"Aren't you going to watch archery?" Si Mingchen asked suddenly.
Wen Zhi knew that Simingchen had just made him jealous again, so he quickly expressed his loyalty: "Archery is not fun at all. I want to sit on the back of your motorcycle and go for a ride with you."
Si Mingchen got back on the off-road motorcycle, cleared the weeds that were kicked up by the wheels, and held the handlebars: "Let's go."
Wen Zhi put his face against Si Mingchen's coat and squinted his eyes: "Let's go."
A huge engine roar sounded, and the off-road motorcycle moved very quickly through the overgrown forest.
The wind whistled in his ears, and the rustling of the surrounding leaves was particularly clear. As the off-road motorcycle bumped along, Wen Zhi felt like he was about to fly, which was extremely exciting.
Si Mingchen rode very steadily. Although the road was bumpy, Wen Zhi did not feel afraid of falling.
The person on the motorcycle next to him was a photographer. Wen Zhi faced the camera and rubbed his head against Si Mingchen's back.
[Wen Zhi’s expression makes her look like a little devil who is the cause of all dangers. ］
[It’s so sweet. They were the least favored couple at the beginning, but I didn’t expect them to be so sweet now. ］
[Sure enough, I love this kind of old-fashioned domineering president falling in love with me. ］
[Wen Zhi seemed to be saying, I have a boyfriend, but you don’t. ］
After the off-road motorcycle race, Si Mingchen successfully scored five points and started to challenge other events with Wen Zhi.
Song Chengyu had also finished archery and happened to run into Wen Zhisi Mingchen. He nodded slightly, Wen Zhi responded vaguely, and hurriedly left with her jealous husband.
"Why are you running so fast when you see your idol?" Si Mingchen held Wen Zhi's hand and teased her.
Wen Zhi: "I didn't run away, I just bought time for our next project."
Si Ming stared at him, and glanced casually at Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi when he passed by.
He felt like there was something wrong between the two of them.
At the end of the day's mission, Si Mingchen and Wen Zhi obtained a total of 15 points, temporarily ranking first.
Song Seung-woo scored ten points alone and finished second.
Sang Qi and Jiang Xingnan obtained 5 points and ranked fourth.
The program team is calculating the online votes. Currently, Sang Qi and Jiang Xingnan have ridiculously high votes, almost 600,000 more votes than the last place. Si Mingchen and Wen Zhi, who had always had very high votes in the previous two times, are currently ranked last.
Next comes the ticket adding stage.
Facing everyone waiting, Song Chengyu whispered, "Give my points to Xingnan and Mr. Sang."
Jiang Xingnan was slightly stunned, then he lip-synched, "Thank you."
Song Chengyu's eyebrows were gentle and he nodded with a smile.
Only Bai Xiang was left. He had few points and could not make much impact. In the end, he gave his points to Sheng Bai and Chen Zheng.
Despite the wailing in the barrage, the program team still announced the final result.
Including the extra votes, Sang Jiang ranks first.
He Xie ranked second.
Chen Sheng ranked third.
Si Wen was last in line.
Jiang Xingnan was not surprised that they won first place. After all, with the extra votes from the program crew, their score should be much higher than others.
But when he saw that they were still ranked first in the online voting, he felt a little confused.
Given his and Sang Qi's current status and way of getting along, it is almost impossible for them to get first place. Besides, he and Sang Qi did not perform well in this episode, so it is impossible for netizens to suddenly vote for them.
Seeing Jiang Xingnan frowning, Sang Qi gently pulled him up and said, "Thank you all for supporting me and Xingnan."
[Oh my god, this is a shady deal, right? ］
[Are there any CP fans for Sang Qi and Actor Jiang? I don't believe their votes are that high. ］
[That’s right, could it be that the production team deliberately manipulated the votes? ］
[My grandparents voted for Wen Zhi and his friends, but they are ranked last? ］
[There is a script and there is a shady deal, I don’t accept it! ］
The room had been reallocated. Si Mingchen was worried that Wen Zhi would feel disappointed, so he said in a deep voice, "It's okay. We can try harder next time and live on the top floor."
Wen Zhi was also afraid that Si Mingchen would be unhappy, so he smiled and joked, "Let's clean up that room later so that we can live better."
Soon, reality slapped Wen Zhi in the face.
They didn't have to clean their room because there was nothing in it.
Si Mingchen had been to this room before, so he was mentally prepared. Seeing Wen Zhi's stunned look, he patted Wen Zhi's head and said, "Are you feeling a little sad?"
Wen Zhi cried, "I'm willing to live in a pigsty just to be with my brother."
[Hahaha, Wen Zhi is so cute. ］
[The environment on the first floor is indeed poor. ］
[Isn’t there a bed and bedding on that stone kang? Did I remember it wrong? ］
[Those were the supplies that Wen Zhi had left for his subordinates. They were naturally gone after redistribution. ］
The supply truck was distributing supplies from the top floor downwards. Sang Qi had just finished a shower and was looking at those things in his bathrobe. His eyes finally fell on the quilt.
He wanted to take it away, but he was concerned about his image, so he said generously, "We don't want anything. Leave it to Xiaozhi and the others below."
Jiang Xingnan stood in the living room and sent a WeChat message to his agent to inquire about the number of votes.
His agent told him that the company did not manipulate the vote count, and perhaps it was the program production team that did it.
He looked at Sang Qi's relaxed and carefree eyes and a doubt arose in his heart.
When the supply truck arrived at Wen Zhi and their room, there were still many things on it, including bedding and food.
Even though there were only instant noodles, vegetables and sausage, it was better than the first time when there was only one **.
Wen Zhi picked and chose, preparing to cook noodles in the evening.
When he turned around, Si Mingchen had already made the bed in the room and was cleaning it.
The bedding was a bit thin, so Si Mingchen spread the thicker cashmere coat in the suitcase underneath. He liked long ones, and it would definitely be big enough for Wen Zhi to sleep on.
Because it was an earthen kang, one had to burn firewood oneself. Si Mingchen found that there were no signs of the fire being used, so he planned to go out and collect some firewood.
"Zhizhi, you stay here, I'll go collect firewood." Si Mingchen put on his coat.
Wen Zhi glanced outside: "It's getting dark, it's not safe to go out alone, I'll accompany you."
Si Mingchen: "No, you cook the noodles, I'll go myself."
The sun was about to set, but Wen Zhi was afraid that Si Mingchen would be taken away by the wolves in the mountains, so he insisted on following him.
The temperature was very cold at night, so he put on his cotton jacket and went to chop wood hand in hand with Si Mingchen.
The two of them were sticky all the way and never let go of each other's hands. Wen Zhi didn't feel cold at all.
After finally climbing up the mountain, Si Mingchen prepared to collect firewood, while Wen Zhi was responsible for bundling it.
"Here's this." Before leaving, he took off his gloves and gave them to Wen Zhi, "Put them on."
Wen Zhi didn't answer: "If you are collecting firewood, you can wear it. I don't have to work much, so I don't need to wear it."
Si Mingchen ignored his advice and helped Wen Zhi put it on: "Wait for me, don't go anywhere."
There was only one photographer, and he originally planned to go with Si Mingchen to collect firewood but was rejected.
Si Mingchen suggested that he stay with Wen Zhi, and the two of them kept each other company, and then he left alone, carrying the bamboo basket on his back.
[Mr. Si seems to be very doting on Wen Zhi. ］
[Treat Wen Zhi like a child. ］
[Only when faced with such a test can one reveal human nature. Sang Qi stayed with Jiang Xingnan for two nights. Jiang Xingnan suggested several times to go collect firewood, but Sang Qi was unwilling to go. In the end, Jiang Xingnan picked it up himself, but Sang Qi disliked it because it smelled like firewood and didn't use it. ］
[I feel upset when I mention this matter. Why did Sang Qi and Jiang Xingnan get so many votes? I won’t swipe the ticket. ］
[People must be crazy to vote for them. There must be something wrong with their votes. ］
[I was looking up the IDs for voting for them, and my eyes almost went blind. Guess what I found? ］
Soon, Wen Zhi carefully tied up the firewood picked up by Si Mingchen with thin strips made of weeds from the roadside and stacked them neatly aside. Although I was a little tired, I felt it was worth it when I thought about how warm the quilt would be when we slept at night.
A lot of firewood is needed to keep warm overnight. Si Mingchen visited almost all the nearby hills and tried to pick up some thick branches to bring back so that he could put them in for the last time late at night and let them burn a little longer.
Passing by a wild fruit forest, Si Mingchen stopped and picked some wild jujubes and wild hawthorns.
Wen Zhi usually eats a lot, so he would take a digestive tablet after meals. He remembered that the tablet seemed to be gone from his suitcase.
Their food is limited, so it would be nice to bring some wild fruits as fruit.
Si Mingchen picked some and put them in his pocket.
Half an hour later, the two people with clear division of labor quickly sorted out 40 kilograms of firewood and prepared to go down the mountain.
At this time, Si Mingchen handed the empty bamboo basket to Wen Zhi, and he tied the firewood into a large pile and prepared to carry it on his back.
Wen Zhi was a little anxious: "Sisi, your things are too heavy, give me some."
Si Mingchen: "It's okay, I can do it. The way down the mountain is not easy to walk, and it's easy to get into trouble if you carry things on your back."
Wen Zhi still refused to do it. He felt so distressed carrying the 80 kilograms of firewood: "Give me some."
In the end, Si Mingchen was unable to persuade Wen Zhi and let Wen Zhi share some of his firewood.
"Tell me when you're tired."
"No problem." Wen Zhi weighed the 20 kilograms of firewood on his back and said, "It's not heavy at all."
Si Mingchen brushed the dirt off his arms and led him down the mountain.
Wen Zhi smiled and said, "Si Si, how about we go home together after work—" Wen Zhi stopped talking halfway, and considering the camera, he continued, "Friends?"
Simingchen: “Yes.”
Wen Zhi still felt that Si Mingchen was under a heavy burden, so he pulled the cane on his shoulder and suggested, "Si Si, let me sing you an original song to cheer you up."
Si Mingchen: "If it's an original song, will it be out of tune?"
Wen Zhi: "You're the one singing out of tune."
Si Mingchen smiled: "Sing, there will be rewards if you sing well."
Wen Zhi cleared his throat, his voice soft and gentle: "Once upon a time, there was a little monk who went down the mountain to pick mushrooms. He didn't step on any mushrooms, but picked up a rag doll. The doll said, "Sisi, why do you have no hair?" Sisi said, "I lost all my hair due to staying up late and working overtime." ”
By the end of the song, Wen Zhi himself was happy.
Si Mingchen raised his eyebrows: "You sang well."
Wen Zhi shamelessly stretched out his hand: "Here's the reward."
Si Mingchen took out three sour dates and hawthorns from his pocket and put them in Wen Zhi's hand: "Eat them when we get home."
"Hawthorn!" Wen Zhi rubbed it with his hands and put it in his mouth: "It's so sweet."
Si Mingchen smiled helplessly: "Why don't you go home and wash it before eating? You will have diarrhea if you do this."
Wen Zhi: "Eating something dirty won't make you sick."
The wild sour jujubes were very sweet. Wen Zhi ate a lot of them in one breath. Every time he finished eating, he would reach into Si Mingchen's pocket. It was useless for Si Mingchen to try to stop him. In this way, after eating hawthorns and jujubes along the way, Wen Zhi was half full when he returned home.
It's getting dark, time to light a fire and cook.
Si Mingchen began to think about how to heat the kang.
Although Si Mingchen is quite versatile, this is the first time he has tried to heat a kang. He looked up some information online before starting to light a fire and burn wood.
Wen Zhi had already boiled water to cook noodles. There were two eggs in their supplies, so he decided to give them to Si Mingchen for dinner first. After all, it was quite tiring for Si Mingchen to carry firewood. For breakfast tomorrow, he would make sandwiches and split them equally.
After working for half an hour, the two finally sat down to eat at the simple stove. Wen Zhi found that although Si Mingchen went to burn firewood, he came in clean and tidy, and did not look like he was working at all. In contrast, his apron was a mess. He hid his apron in an attempt to cover up his crime.
Si Mingchen obviously saw it and tasted the noodles made by Wen Zhi: "Not bad."
Wen Zhi said modestly: "It's okay, I'm still pretty good at cooking noodles."
Si Mingchen found an egg in his bowl and put it into Wen Zhi's bowl: "You eat it."
Wen Zhi quickly took it back and lied without thinking: "I just ate, I'm full."
Si Mingchen said in a low voice: "Eat one more, and have a full dinner, otherwise you will be hungry again in the middle of the night."
"I never cried out for hunger in the middle of the night." Wen Zhi looked down at the egg in his bowl, cut it in half, and passed it to Si Mingchen: "Si Si, let's eat together."
Si Mingchen did not refuse this time and ate the egg.
Wen Zhi ate the two bags of instant noodles very cleanly, leaving not even a drop of soup, and almost licked the bowl.
Si Mingchen looked at it and felt a little uncomfortable.
The environment they were living in tonight was indeed a bit poor. Wen Zhi probably had never lived in a house like this since he was born.
Tonight’s live broadcast is about to end, and netizens in the barrage are reluctantly bidding farewell to the two.
[Sisi and Wenwen are so sweet. ］
[Mr. Si is so polite and gentlemanly. Compared to Sang Qi, I almost vomit. ］
[Go eat some melon! Someone has dug up information about today’s voting incident! ］
[Where is the melon! Does the program crew have inside information? ］
Shortly after the photographer left, the door suddenly rang.
After Si Mingchen opened the door, he found Jiang Xingnan standing outside with a lot of things in his hands.
"What's up?"
Jiang Xingnan stuffed food and daily necessities to Si Mingchen: "I brought some for you, you can use them."
Si Mingchen said coldly: "No, thank you."
Seeing the door was about to be closed, Jiang Xingnan hurriedly explained: "Sang Qi didn't ask me to bring it here. I wanted to come here on my own."
Si Mingchen was startled: "Yourself?"
Wen Zhi heard the noise and ran over. When he saw Jiang Xingnan and the pile of things in his arms, he exclaimed, "Wow!" and then asked in a low voice, "Why are you sending us supplies?"
Jiang Xingnan didn't know how to explain this.
Ever since he and Sang Qi moved into the top floor, he had a vague feeling that this matter was not that simple. Wen Zhi and Si Mingchen are currently very popular, how could they suddenly become last?
So he guessed that the program team was manipulating the votes behind the scenes and deliberately added Wen Zhi and others' votes to them.
This is done for the sake of variety show effect and to increase discussion, and secondly to prevent him and Sang Qi from being out.
"We have a lot of supplies, so we wanted to send some to you."
Jiang Xingnan put his things down and turned to leave.
Si Mingchen was a little confused about Jiang Xingnan's behavior. However, it was quite unexpected that Jiang Sang and his friend could take first place today.
Wen Zhi squatted in front of the supplies and felt around: "Sisi, should we take them back?"
Siming thought for a moment and said, "Bring it back. There are biscuits inside. Leave them for you to eat when you are hungry."
Wen Zhi was very happy and took the things in.
That night, Wen Zhi crawled into the warm bed and soon fell asleep out of exhaustion. Although he didn't carry much firewood, the amount of exercise he did was more than usual, and his arms and legs were aching badly.
Si Mingchen turned on his computer and contacted Assistant Wen, asking him to look into the voting incident.
Assistant Wen replied quickly, and Simingchen reminded him: "Whoever did it should be held accountable, don't implicate others."
Assistant Wen: "Understood."
After closing the computer, Si Mingchen prepared to go to bed. What he didn't know was that netizens had already noticed the clues of tonight's voting incident and were looking for evidence step by step.
The next day, when Si Mingchen woke up, Wen Zhi got up, which was rare. There are two rooms in the simple cottage. The outer room is both the living room and the kitchen. Wen Zhi is busy making breakfast.
"good morning."
Seeing Wen Zhi's face full of black marks, Si Mingchen suddenly woke up from his morning sleepiness.
"What happened?" He fetched some hot water, soaked a towel in it, and wiped the stuff off Wen Zhi's face.
Wen Zhi smiled carelessly: "I don't know how to make a fire, it took me a long time."
Today's breakfast is very rich, with steak and ham sent by Jiang Xingnan. The bread is also very soft and smells very fragrant.
Si Mingchen told him: "Remember to call me next time, don't do it yourself, what if you get burned."
Wen Zhi hugged Si Mingchen, cherishing the few minutes of tenderness before the filming started.
At this time, several staff members from the program team happened to pass by their window.
"The marketing department had a meeting all night, and I was shocked when I saw the trending searches this morning."
"Yeah, I guess the producers are pissed off."
"Is it Sang Qi or Jiang Xingnan? They are not that bad, why would they resort to such means?"
Wen Zhi quickly opened his phone and found that "Sang Qi and Jiang Xingnan voted fraudulently" was ranked first in the hot search.
Last night, some netizens sorted out the voting IDs and found that every two hours, tens of thousands of digital IDs would vote for Jiang Xingnan and others. After sorting, it was found that these digital IDs were actually consecutive numbers with a certain pattern.
All kinds of evidence prove that Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi engaged in vote-rigging yesterday.
According to netizens' estimates, they probably spent about 500,000 votes.
The insults under the Weibo post were very harsh.
[I didn’t expect that such a variety show would actually cause some bosses to make a big fuss and even do some outrageous things. ］
[I haven't seen Jiang Xingnan for four years. How come he suddenly became like this? ］
[I guess Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi couldn’t stand the poor environment on the first floor, so they bought the tickets. ］
[If they are still ranked last this time, they will be eliminated. ］
[So, I just want to be famous. No matter whether Jiang Xingnan wants to become popular again or Sang Qi wants to be famous, their despicable means are extremely disgusting! ］
Wen Zhi relayed the content of the Weibo post to Si Mingchen: "Si Si, do you think they are cheating?"
Simingchen: “Yeah.”
Wen Zhi: "Then was Jiang Xingnan sending us something yesterday also because of this? But I think he was quite sincere. Could it be that it was a bad idea from Sang Qi and he couldn't stop it?"
Simingchen: "Let's take a look."
Everyone had a group activity today, and when they gathered on the first floor of the inn, everyone was already there except Sang Qi and Jiang Xingnan.
Song Chengyu was wearing a light blue shirt and black jeans today, and looked to be in his late twenties.
Wen Zhi was caught by Si Mingchen after just one glance. He immediately looked away and looked around hypocritically, pretending to be still sleepy.
The program team is also dealing with the vote-rigging incident.
When Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi came down, the aura between the two was obviously wrong and very serious.
Song Chengyu looked at Jiang Xingnan's tired eyes, took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to his agent.
With the presence of Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi, the atmosphere between everyone became a little awkward, not as lively as before.
Until noon, the vote-rigging incident became more and more serious on the Internet. Wen Zhi and Si Mingchen heard the staff talking about it while they were drying sweet potatoes outside.
Probably, after the program team checked all night, they found that 600,000 votes were fake.
Wen Zhi took a deep breath and murmured, "Why bother? This is so embarrassing."
Si Mingchen: "You can't judge Sang Qi with normal thinking. After all, he is not a normal person."
Wen Zhi smiled secretly: "You are right."
In the afternoon, the program team announced the results of the investigation, and the public opinion on the Internet immediately changed. Almost all marketing accounts were using topics related to "Jiang Xingnan rigging votes", and Sang Qi's name completely disappeared from the hot searches. Almost instantly, all the netizens' anger was focused on Jiang Xingnan, and even an insider revealed that the vote-rigging behavior was instructed by Jiang Xingnan's company.
Jiang Xingnan’s company is not a big company. It has just been established and its network resources are average. Faced with groundless accusations from the public, their public relations skills were very poor and they were not seen in almost all popular gathering places to clarify the situation.
Wen Zhi had been following this matter, and was a little angry when he found out that the blame was put on Jiang Xingnan while Sang Qi got away with it.
"Sisi, this is unfair." Wen Zhi expressed his thoughts, "If Jiang Xingnan really conspired with Sang Qi to rig the votes, then they both deserved to be on the hot search list together, but I think Sang Qi is the mastermind in this matter, otherwise he wouldn't be in such a hurry to clear himself."
Si Mingchen also obtained the investigation results of Special Assistant Wen, which showed that the IP address of the company operating the vote-rigging operation was overseas, which was Sang Qi's overseas company.
"Well, this matter is indeed Sang Qi's doing."
Wen Zhi became even angrier: "I told you, how could there be no him? He did something wrong, hid himself like a coward, and left all his anger to his friends. This kind of person is too much."
Si Mingchen: "If I'm not mistaken, Jiang Xingnan should be Sang Qi's boyfriend."
Wen Zhi: "That's even more excessive."
In the evening, the program team issued an apology statement, but Jiang Xingnan's studio did not respond.
After this incident, I guess Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi won’t continue to participate. But it just passed by so unclearly, which made Wen Zhi very angry.
Si Mingchen was working inside. Wen Zhi put on his coat and strolled around when he happened to run into two people.
In the pavilion behind the remote inn, Song Chengyu stood there with a serious expression, and Jiang Xingnan sat on the steps with his eyes downcast.
Soon, Song Chengyu found Wen Zhi, who greeted him awkwardly and walked over quietly.
"You guys chat, I'm just passing by." Wen Zhi was about to leave when he was suddenly stopped by Jiang Xingnan.
"Wen Zhi, I'm sorry. It's because Sang Qi and I took your first place that you have to live in such an environment."
Wen Zhi shook his head generously: "It's okay, I forgive you."
Jiang Xingnan looked at him and spoke in a light tone, as if he had been drained of all his strength: "But I didn't know about the ticket fraud."
Wen Zhi was stunned for a moment: "Well, I believe you."
Jiang Xingnan slowly lowered his head: "Thank you."
Wen Zhi stood in the middle of the road, not knowing whether to go or not. So, he took advantage of this incident and proposed to Jiang Xingnan: "Since you didn't know about it, it must be Sang Qi who did it. In my opinion, you should directly expose Sang Qi's evil deeds to everyone and let him bear the consequences of the vote-rigging incident."
Jiang Xingnan smiled bitterly and said nothing.
Wen Zhi suddenly thought that Jiang Xingnan and Sang Qi seemed to be a couple, so Jiang Xingnan must have his own concerns in dealing with this matter.
"It was Sang Qi who pushed you out first. Otherwise, where did all the negative information about you come from? Why did the marketing blogs only post about you cheating on votes and not him?"
Jiang Xingnan sighed: "I know."
Wen Zhi sat next to Jiang Xingnan: "So if he is unkind, you can also be unjust. Have you been dating him for a long time? Do you know him well?"
Jiang Xingnan looked dejected: "I probably don't understand. During the four years we were together in college, I couldn't fully understand him."
"You two dated for four years in college?" Wen Zhi stood up suddenly, "So he never dated me at all."
