Oh, it tastes like green plums. No wonder it tasted so familiar.
"Huh? What?! Plum flavor?!"
Shen Shiqing couldn't help but recall the fanfiction he had seen that day, titled "Plum's Summer of Passion."
None of it can be broadcast; every word between the lines is tainted with color.
Shen Shiqing blushed as soon as he recalled it.
"Fans really dare to write anything! Such a clean title, such risqué content!!? Me and Actor Lu doing *that*, is that something they can write about?!" But then she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness the Actor hasn't seen it, otherwise I would have been in deep trouble."
Lu Jingchu was somewhat confused by Shen Shiqing's confused yet secretly relieved voice.
But she quickly realized what was happening, her ear tips turning red, and her eyes filled with a hazy, enchanting light.
It seems he'll have to find it and take a look.
Shen Shiqing, of course, had no idea what Lu Jingchu was thinking. If she had known, she would never have gone through the plot in her mind.
Without a doubt, Lu Jingchu and Shen Shiqing won first place, followed closely by Xing Jianan and Shi Xia. The third group to arrive was Song Zhihuai and Wen Xinran, despite taking a fall on the way.
Next to arrive were Qin Shiyue and Xia Chun, who had been "fighting" the whole way, so it wasn't surprising that they came in last.
Du Hewen is just a timekeeper; whether he's actually timed or not doesn't really matter, since the outcome is already decided anyway.
He sat at the finish line, tore open a bag of snacks he had earned from completing a previous task, and began to eat them with relish.
[I knew Lu Ge and Shi Jie would definitely win first place! These handsome guys and beautiful girls are such a feast for the eyes!]
I'm totally shipping the Chu Shi couple!
Actually, I think Song Zhihuai and Wen Xinran are a great couple; they have that "rich and domineering CEO pursuing a female celebrity" vibe!
[Qin Shiyue and Xia Chun, I'm so sad, they can even "fight" while playing a game, hahaha]
[Waaaaah, Xing Jianan's cold face is so handsome!! Top 1 cold-faced handsome guy in the Chinese entertainment industry, who agrees and who disagrees!]
[Shi Xia is so cute! She's definitely my daughter! Baby, look at Mommy! Don't look at Shi Xia anymore!!!]
[Actor Du really keeps himself out of trouble; no wonder his wife is at ease.]
[Although I still really want to ask, has anyone seen your sister-in-law? I'm so curious!!!]
[Sister Du, a mysterious figure in the entertainment industry]
...
Du Hewen put down the snacks in his hand, stood up, and the sunlight shone on him, casting a layer of light on him, and his pupils were also tinged with gold.
He was so relaxed, like he was on vacation in the forest.
"The results are obvious. Teacher Lu and Teacher Shen won first place, and of course, the other groups also did very well." Du Hewen smiled casually.
A loud bang in the sky, and that reckless director will surely make a dazzling appearance.
"Everyone worked very hard to complete the task. Let's congratulate the team that won first place! They will receive our surprise gift package, which is—"
One second, three seconds, five seconds passed, and the director, seemingly oblivious to the danger, still hadn't said anything. Shen Shiqing reasonably suspected that a commercial break had been inserted.
"Director, is it possible for a person to be able to say a complete sentence?" Lu Jingchu asked casually, half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Ahem, the surprise gift package is a set of pots and pans!" the reckless director blurted out.
Lu Jingchu had already spoken up, so how could he dare to delay any longer? That would be suicidal.
Shen Shiqing didn't expect Lu Jingchu to speak up. She made a small complaint in her mind, but she didn't expect that she and Lu Jingchu would agree on the same thing.
She hadn't expected Lu Jingchu to be such an interesting person; his question was almost identical to the one he used to ask, "Is dinner ready?"
[Hahahaha, Lu Jingchu, hahahaha, my mouth double!]
[Just when I was getting angry watching the ad, a voice-over suddenly came on screen.]
[I was wondering why the ad ended so quickly.]
[Actor Lu, I never knew you were this kind of person! I like you so much!]
[What I hate most is when someone only says half of what they mean and then doesn't finish! Director, please be careful next time!!!]
Shen Shiqing smiled, giving Lu Jingchu a thumbs-up in his heart and offering a small compliment.
Lu Jingchu's face also lit up with a smile, and her eyes softened.
"Ahem, but don't be discouraged if you didn't win, we also have some small gifts to give away." The director cleared his throat. "The second place team will get two bottles of eight-treasure porridge, the third place team will get a bottle of milk and bread, and the fourth place team will get a loaf of bread."
As they spoke, these rewards rained down from the sky.
It fell in front of each team.
Of course, except for Shen Shiqing's group.
Because that four-piece set of pots, pans, and dishes had somehow fallen down in front of their little house.
Shen Shiqing went to check and found that there was no damage.
"Have fun, everyone! Have a wonderful night. We're off to have dinner now!" The reckless director said before quickly making his escape.
Shen Shiqing had noticed a pile of food in the guesthouse kitchen long ago. Although he knew that the director was a jerk, he didn't expect him to be so jerk-like that he would remind them that he was having a meal together.
He shook his head helplessly, but then felt that it was something he was capable of doing.
[I said, you reckless director, this is going too far! Everyone's starving! And you went out for a fancy meal?]
To be honest, there's nothing strange about it. You know how directors are, they're fearless.
[They're risking their lives to steal bamboo shoots, so they're going to survive on this meager food tonight?]
[Hmm... all the other groups are talking about food, but the first place is all about pots and pans?? What are they eating? Iron?]
[By the way, have you guys forgotten that our Sister Shi is here too?]
[Ahhhhhh, I can't wait to see Sister Shi show off her skills!]
[By the way, can we see Sister Shi catching fish again?]
Of course it is!
Shen Shiqing had already observed the terrain here. When he went to prepare materials to build the house, he discovered that the stream was not far from here, and if you listened carefully, you could hear the sound of the water flowing.
It sent a cool and refreshing feeling through my heart.
Moreover, Shen Shiqing knew that this fish would be even more delicious than the last one.
She couldn't wait just thinking about it.
Lu Jingchu followed behind her without saying a word.
The interplay of shadows creates a powerful atmosphere.
Xing Jianan and Shi Xia divided the reward among themselves, each receiving a bottle of eight-treasure porridge, which was just right.
The two of them, Song Zhihuai and Wen Xinran, looked at each other with affection, just like a couple.
Song Zhihuai stuffed the milk and bread into Wen Xinran's hands, his expression calm, and didn't ask for anything himself.
Wen Xinran reluctantly accepted the food he placed in her hand.
As for Qin Shiyue and Xia Chun, that's rather funny.
Because there was only one loaf of bread, the two of them were wary of each other.
Qin Shiyue thought Xia Chun was dragging him down, while Xia Chun thought Qin Shiyue was useless and couldn't even hold a girl.
The two were about to start arguing again.
"I'm really hungry. Will Brother Shiyue give it to me?" Xia Chun asked with a forced smile.
"Sister Xia Chun, I think I probably did the most work, right?" Qin Shiyue retorted, not to be outdone.
"Since my sister is like this, shouldn't my brother give in to me?" Xia Chun pulled the bread towards herself.
"I think maybe we should split it equally?" Qin Shiyue felt that this would at least be fair, since he was also a little hungry.
"Since the older sister is a girl, the younger brother shouldn't try to take her away from her, right?" Xia Chun's eyes held a hint of threat.
"You..." Qin Shiyue knew, of course, that Xia Chun was doing it on purpose.
If he doesn't give it, he'll be petty; if he does give it, he'll go hungry, but public opinion will likely side with him.
He knew he wouldn't be the one getting scolded, so Qin Shiyue thought for a moment, then let go of Xia Chun's hand, and the bread naturally fell into Xia Chun's hands.
Qin Shiyue hasn't been wasting her years in the entertainment industry.
Such considerations are commonplace, and Xia Chun used to use them frequently. However, with hunger looming this time, she probably forgot about these calculations.
Shen Shiqing overheard their conversation as he passed by and shook his head slightly.
Why does Qin Shiyue seem to be getting a bit too teasy?
A hint of smugness flashed in Xia Chun's eyes, while Qin Shiyue's eyes held a hint of calculation.
Oh, infighting, hmm, that's good.
