An Jing is still recording a program and will call Lu Yuqi when he has some free time in the evening. Even over the phone, he can imagine the other person's unhappy face. He wonders who has offended him.
Have you watched my new variety show?
Lu Yuqi coldly uttered two words: "No."
An Jing was both amused and exasperated. "Who made you angry? Tell your brother!"
Lu Yuqi let out a cold snort from his nose, "Idiot."
An Jing felt hopeless. No matter how much he cursed Lu Yuqi, he still found him adorable, even though Lu Yuqi always had a grumpy face. It seemed he was a masochist.
Which idiot is it...? An Jing suddenly realized something. Wait, could it be that he made Qi Qi angry? That kid must have watched his new variety show.
He had just watched the first episode's final cut. The production team had intentionally paired him and Liang Meiman as a couple, which was reflected in the editing, and even the special effects were pink bubbles.
Thinking of this, An Jing felt much better. "Qiqi, you're not jealous, are you?"
Lu Yuqi: "Only a fool would be jealous."
An Jing: "Aren't you my little silly goose?" Remember https://m.
Lu Yuqi: "Aren't you disgusting?"
"Okay, don't be angry. There's really nothing between Liang Meiman and me. She did deliberately get close to me, but you're the only one in my heart. I have absolutely no feelings for her."
"I was just thinking that it wouldn't be right to reject her directly in front of the camera. If you're unhappy about it, I'll keep my distance from her in the future. Also, I'll talk to the production team and ask them not to keep pairing me up with her."
"After all, I'm already taken."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuqi's mood instantly brightened, a slight smile playing on his lips, his tone still haughty as he spoke, "That would be for the best."
"That's natural. By the way, I have something to tell you."
"What?"
In addition to the regular guests, the production team invites guest stars every episode, and An Jing thought of having Lu Yuqi come and have some fun too.
"Listen to me, the village is so beautiful! The air is so fresh, the mountains are lush and the water is clear, the birds are singing and the flowers are blooming, it's a place where outstanding people live..."
Lu Yuqi interrupted his sales pitch with a chilling tone, "You're just trying to trick me into working."
"How could I? I just want to see you. Look, it's been almost half a month since we last saw each other. I miss you so much, Qiqi. Don't you miss me? Please come over, okay?"
"Such a grown man, still acting like a child, how shameless," Lu Yuqi muttered to himself, but a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes as he reluctantly agreed, "Then... okay."
It would also be a good opportunity to meet Liang Meiman.
Two days later, Lu Yuqi packed his luggage and headed to the recording location of the program. After getting off the plane, he took a three-hour car ride to reach his destination.
It is indeed a village with beautiful mountains and clear waters.
The photographer followed the young man as he dragged his suitcase along the village's cement road. On both sides were farmland and vegetable fields, and the stream beside the road was crystal clear, with small fish seemingly swimming nimbly in it.
Young Master Lu had lived in a big city since he was a child and had never been to the countryside. He became interested and squatted down by the stream, putting his hands into the icy water, trying to catch fish with his bare hands, but he tried several times and caught nothing.
He was somewhat discouraged, "How can this fish swim so fast..."
Suddenly, Lu Yuqi felt a pair of eyes watching him from behind. When he turned around, he saw a fierce-looking black Chinese rural dog staring at him menacingly.
Dog: Woof woof woof!
Lu Yuqi: "Ah!!! Don't come any closer!"
The young man stood frozen in fear, pointing tremblingly at the dog's head. The photographer next to him couldn't help but laugh and kindly reassured him, "It's okay, dogs are afraid of people."
"It looked like it wanted to eat me alive!"
"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either." Just as the man and the dog were facing off, the sound of a car approaching suddenly came from ahead, along with a loud shout: "Lu! Yu! Qi!"
Lu Yuqi turned his head and saw that familiar figure sitting on a... tricycle, which was open-top.
The man was wearing black high-top rain boots, cotton gloves for work, and a straw hat. He was slowly driving his tricycle toward them, making a creaking sound.
They were particularly simple and honest.
"..." Lu Yuqi's lips twitched, and then, under the black dog's gaze, he carefully moved to the side, dragged his suitcase and ran forward as fast as he could, as if he were running for his life.
"Quick, quick, stop the car!"
As soon as An Jing stopped the car, Young Master Lu hurriedly threw his suitcase into the car, got in himself, and urged An Jing to drive quickly, otherwise that dog would chase after him and bite him.
"Alright, hold on tight!" An Jing laughed heartily as he drove. He never expected that the fearless and arrogant King would be afraid of dogs. He had run really fast just now, dragging his suitcase along.
This kid usually loves to bite people, so why is he afraid of being bitten by a dog?
Lu Yuqi sat resentfully in the convertible luxury car, wanting to swear, but with cameras following them, he could only curse silently in his heart before asking An Jing, "Teacher An... what brings you here?"
As An Jing drove, he smiled and said, "I came all the way here to pick you up. As soon as I heard you arrived, I put down my hoe and came right over. How about that? Touched?"
Lu Yuqi: "You really tricked me into coming here to work."
On the other side, the photographer and the big black dog, who were still standing in place, were stunned.
"..."
Why are you running so fast? Wait for him!
Two minutes later, the tricycle stopped in front of a house, which should be where they were staying. An Jing carried the suitcase, and Lu Yuqi followed him inside.
The house looks quite nice; it's made of wood with a tiled roof and looks rather old. There's a courtyard in front with fruit trees, flowers, and plants, and a small vegetable garden next to it with vegetables, scallions, ginger, garlic, and the like.
It looks very comfortable overall, giving a sense of returning to simplicity.
"Yuqi, you've arrived! I've been waiting for you for so long!"
"haven't seen you for a long time."
The other four people came out to greet Lu Yuqi. He knew Han Yun'er and Qin He, but it was the first time he had met Ma Yutao and Liang Meiman. He greeted them politely.
"Lu Yuqi, is that you? You're a really handsome young man. I've seen you in the TV series 'Novoland: The Legend of Kyushu'." Liang Meiman smiled and shook hands with Lu Yuqi.
Since they were being so polite, Lu Yuqi had no reason to give her a sour look. He smiled at Liang Meiman and said, "Hello, Sister Meiman."
Liang Meiman is indeed beautiful, and her smile is even more radiant. Her voice is also very sweet. "An Jing picked you up just now, right? You two seem to have a good relationship."
An Jing nodded. "Yes, it's not bad."
“You have mud on your face, you must have gotten it while you were working, let me wipe it off for you.” Liang Meiman said, reaching out to wipe An Jing’s face, but Lu Yuqi glanced at her.
An Jing immediately stepped back to avoid Liang Meiman's hand, and said jokingly, "How could I trouble Teacher Liang? I can wipe it myself."
He casually wiped his face. "Well, let me take Yuqi to our room first."
Liang Meiman smiled nonchalantly, "Okay, go ahead."
Phew... nothing serious happened. An Jing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and led Lu Yuqi into the house. He carefully observed the other's expression, and thankfully, there was no change.
Just as he was feeling relieved, a sudden pain shot through his foot. He forced himself to keep from crying out, while the culprit looked at him apologetically. "Oh, I'm so sorry, I accidentally stepped on your foot. Are you alright?"
It wasn't an accident; it was clearly intentional!
Teacher An gritted her teeth and smiled as she said, "It's alright."
Damn! That little bastard really went all out... no, he really kicked!
"We've arrived at the room. Let's go in and take a look."
"Qin He and Teacher Ma will share a room, and you will share a room with me."
The room wasn't big, and it had two double beds. One of the beds was neatly made, with no signs of having been slept in. The other bed was by the window, and it was presumably An Jing's, as it was also neatly folded.
In Lu Yuqi's memory, An Jing's bedding in his room was a mess, like a dog had slept in it. Sure enough, this dog of a man was very concerned about his image in front of the camera. He wondered how many fans had been fooled by his dignified appearance.
An Jing: "You must be very tired from the journey. You should rest for a bit. I still need to go to the field to remove the remaining weeds."
Lu Yuqi: "Wait, I'll go with you."
"Okay." An Jing thought sweetly, Qiqi must not want him to work so hard and wants to share the burden with him. How nice.
The sun was still quite bright here. Lu Yuqi sprayed himself with sunscreen spray, and seeing the man next to him secretly admiring himself, he naturally sprayed some on him as well.
"If you're weeding, what are the others supposed to do?"
An Jing replied, "The two girls stayed to cook dinner, while Qin He and Teacher Ma went to the pond to catch fish."
"Fishing?" Lu Yuqi immediately became interested. He hadn't caught any small fish by the stream, so he happily decided, "Then I'll go help them catch fish. You can remove the weeds yourself. Thank you for your hard work."
An Jing: "..." Doesn't your conscience hurt?!
Seeing the young man's enthusiastic expression, An Jing finally gave in. Fine, he'd do the weeding tomorrow. He didn't want to be separated from Lu Yuqi; it was more important to accompany his little rascal to catch fish.
So the four of them put on waterproof overalls, took nets and buckets, and went to the pond.
At only twenty years old, Lu Yuqi was the first to rush into the pond with great enthusiasm, grabbing a net and scooping around wildly. He actually managed to catch a small fish about half the size of his palm.
"We caught him! Look!"
He held a lively little fish in his hand, a happy and proud smile on his face. His gaze was fixed on An Jing, his eyes sparkling, like a child who wanted to be praised by his parents.
A smile appeared in the man's eyes. "Our Qiqi is really great."
