Chapter 19 Happy Crab Fried Rice
Xue Qi understood what this line of golden words meant.
Once she chooses to "compete for the title of heroine", she will most likely fall into the trap of the "golden finger" of this world.
Her understanding is that this is not a conventional romance world, but a fantasy romance world.
The "golden fingers" in this world are more like protagonists. They guide the characters, thereby leading to a plot development that makes readers feel comfortable.
The development of the plot is diverse and changes according to the changes of the characters.
In this world, everyone is a tool and everyone serves the plot.
According to Xue Qi's private conversation with Zhu Youwei, Xue Qi learned that when the golden finger was bound to him, it would keep talking to him, and its voice would keep echoing in his mind, bewitching him.
When Gold Finger was bewitching him, as long as Xue Qi was present, he would definitely be able to see the words Gold Finger was using to bewitch Zhu Youwei.
Gold Finger obviously didn't know about Xue Qi's existence, and the reason why Xue Qi could see those golden subtitles was probably because she was not from this world.
She comes from the game world, so she can see the subtitles of this world and the effects of the cheat code on everyone.
She is a bug in this world.
Now Xue Qi saw the subtitles above her head, which was a hint that the golden finger had set its sights on her.
Zhu Youwei's golden finger bound him and guided him to make negative marks for the so-called "performance".
Then, the golden finger that binds the protagonist in this world will definitely frantically look for the next "target" for the so-called "performance", and find a "protagonist" who can bring them "performance" and has strong business capabilities.
If this is the case, then the protagonist of this world is not constant.
Once the "protagonist" can no longer bring results to the "golden finger", they will take away the things of other protagonists just like taking away Zhu Youwei's life.
Then, look for the next target.
Obviously, Xue Qi has attracted the attention of "Golden Finger" because of the favor of villain No. 3 Cao Yue.
Once she really reaches the "quality" of the heroine, who knows, the "golden finger" may really unbind Liu Ruyu and bind her instead.
Although she is a character in the gaming world, based on her experience of catching up on all kinds of melodramatic things, there is no good ending for those who compete for the heroine!
Competition represents the beginning of "desire". When she and Liu Ruyu compete for the leading role, a catfish effect will occur, making Liu Ruyu feel competitive and oppressive, and it is not certain whether he will do something even more terrible.
It's not that she doesn't have confidence in controlling her desires, she just thinks competing to be the heroine is a bit troublesome.
As a heroine, you have to be much better than others.
If you embark on the path of becoming the heroine, you will inevitably experience the jealousy and calculations of various female supporting characters and villains... and thus overcome all difficulties and live a happy life with the hero.
Love Game Next Door
PC often complained to her about the pain and exhaustion of love. He said that when you're not in love, there's nothing wrong. But when you're in love, there's a lot of trouble. There's anxiety and fear of loss, and there are bloody arguments...
Therefore, Xue Qi does not yearn for love.
She just wants to get rich and make money without doing anything!
Isn't it nice to be rich? Why talk about love!?
Bring Qin Tiantian out, inherit the estate, then return to the small city to buy a small villa, grow some vegetables, open a small restaurant to cook and shoot some videos, isn’t this a great life?
Why do you want to be the heroine and show everyone the trivialities of your love life?
How miserable it is to be the heroine!
Holding hands with the male protagonist, kissing, and even applauding love must be shown to the readers.
This is a high-risk job, it's crazy!
She doesn't want to be the protagonist!
"Sister Qi, what's wrong with you?"
Cao Yue sucked the salt and pepper on his fingers, wrapped his mouth around the food, and said vaguely: "Are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you need help?"
Xue Qi finally came to his senses and took the drinks to refill everyone's cup.
"It's okay, I just twisted my waist."
Cao Yue asked, and when he saw that she was fine, he lowered his head and continued to eat lobster.
The part of the Boston lobster connected to the head is rich in shrimp paste. Cao Yue scooped up a full spoonful of it, and paired it with the thick shrimp meat. The shrimp paste exuded a faint sweetness, and the feeling of happiness washed over his brain, making him sink into it again.
Xue Qi went to the kitchen to get the main course, a plate of crab fried rice.
She had just put the crab fried rice on the table and wanted to ask if everyone could eat more, but before she could open her mouth, everyone's bowls were handed to her and they all looked at her with eager eyes.
Cao Yue begged online: "Thank you, Sister Qi! Fairy Sister, I love you!"
The rebellious girl Qin Tiantian was the most obedient to Xue Qi only when eating: "The most fairy 7 ma, thank you, please fill it up for me!"
Tang Xiong felt embarrassed to follow the boss for a free meal.
At this moment, under the influence of delicious food, he couldn't help but beg for food online: "Sorry for bothering Miss Xue, it's really delicious, so delicious."
No wonder Mr. Cao went to work at the Happy Food Store. He also wanted to quit his job and go find a job.
Washing dishes and sweeping the floor are all fine. As long as I can eat Boss Xue’s cooking every day, it doesn’t matter if the salary is low!
When Xue Qi filled their bowls and went to see Cao Feng, the man stood up and said, "Don't bother Boss Xue, I can do it myself."
In the live broadcast barrage:
"Hahaha, how come everyone is begging for food online is so funny? Hahahaha..."
"Fuck! When Cao Yue was sucking the salt and pepper on his finger just now, I cried with greed! I want to eat his finger!"
"When he eats shrimp paste, I am really greedy. A spoonful of shrimp paste, I am crying with greed!"
"That brother is so handsome! He's such a gentleman! He's actually the only one who serves his own food! Such a gentleman!"
"If I remember correctly, this is Cao Yue's uncle. He's quite handsome! But when I saw him at the competition last year, he didn't look so handsome. He wore big black-framed glasses and was unusually thin. Now that he's taken off his glasses and gained some weight, his looks have suddenly improved! He can debut with this look. [I'm just kidding, I don't understand the entertainment industry]"
"Celebrity fans said: This uncle's looks are indeed good enough to debut."
"Celebrity fans are saying: Boss Xue has the looks to make a debut. qaq..."
"Celebrities say she's the best cook among all the fairies!"
…
Seeing that only two bowls were left, Xue Qi said to Cao Feng, "Manager Cao, I'm full. You can eat the rest."
People in the comments were still praising Cao Feng for being a gentleman, but unexpectedly, after Cao Feng filled his bowl to the brim, he pressed it down with a rice spoon.
After the rice that has come out is pressed down, continue to serve the rice.
Xue Qi scooped a bowlful for everyone, while Cao Feng filled two servings for himself.
Everyone stared at him in amazement.
Cao Yue was indignant: "Uncle, you've taken all the food!"
Qin Tiantian held out her bowl: "Uncle Cao Yue, give me some more!"
Cao Feng ignored his nephew and really used chopsticks to put a small portion of fried rice into Qin Tiantian's bowl.
Qin Tiantian continued to eat happily.
Tang Xiong also wanted to hold out his bowl and ask the boss for some rice, but when he thought about how it was not easy for the boss to eat, he didn't have the heart to do it.
Cao Feng usually eats slowly, but when he eats the food made by Xue Qi, he can't help but speed up.
Even before he took a bite of the fried rice, the alluring aroma filled his nostrils. The rice was fried to a crisp, distinct grain, and each bite was filled with bouncy, plump crab meat, leaving a sweet aftertaste.
This wonderful crab fried rice reminded Cao Feng of his former family.
He grew up near the sea. His parents were scientific researchers and dedicated their lives to the country.
As far as he could remember, he rarely saw his mother.
My sister is the head of the family. She is a good cook and will cook delicious dishes for him in different ways. Sometimes, when she is too busy, she will make him crab fried rice to save time.
In his memory, his eldest sister is better than his mother.
A bowl of fried rice pulled out the person from the depths of Cao Feng's memory, and each grain of rice filled his stomach to the brim, just like the long-lost happiness.
The live broadcast continues:
"It's so interesting to watch Uncle Cao Yue eat. When I first saw him eating, I felt like he was a man on the verge of starvation, who finally got a delicious dish and treasured it even more. Now, watching him eat, I feel both happy and sad."
"Isn't today New Year's Eve? Why are they eating seafood here instead of going home for the New Year?"
"For your information, Cao Yue has no parents and lives with his uncle. His uncle is said to be financially destitute and unable to marry, leaving him alone. And Xue 77's life was pretty miserable too. She married a divorced man and became a widow at the age of 30. The girl is her stepdaughter."
"Cao Yue and that girl were classmates, and Cao Yue's uncle worked as a dishwasher at Xue 77. When I went to Xingfu Gourmet Restaurant for dinner, I often saw him washing dishes in the kitchen. Since he was handsome, I often watched him."
"Fuck. An older bachelor with his nephew, and a young widow with her stepdaughter. How pathetic! They're strangers hugging each other for warmth, reminiscing about home, probably afraid of being alone, so they're spending the New Year together. So, what's going on with that man?"
"That man was probably just here to eat for free, but he really ruined the atmosphere! Without him, I think the scene would be more harmonious!"
Tang Xiong, the freeloader, is also in a miserable situation.
During the Chinese New Year, as his boss's personal assistant, he was forced to work overtime because he was worried about his boss's health, diet and daily life.
The only consolation is that I got such a delicious meal, but was actually despised by others!
-
After the reunion dinner, Qin Tiantian and Cao Yue each received a red envelope.
The two teenagers sat on the sofa, head to head, asking for red envelopes together and comparing who got the bigger one!
Cao Yue: "I have 2,600, how about you?"
Qin Tiantian touched her bulging red envelope and said confidently, "This thickness must be at least five or six thousand, right? Hehe, I'll treat you to diving tomorrow."
When I opened the red envelope, I was dumbfounded.
There are no hundred-yuan bills in it, only ten-yuan bills!
This thickness of six or seven millimeters is made up entirely of ten-yuan bills!
Five or six thousand became five or six hundred!
Cao Yue comforted her: "My uncle gave me a red envelope, that's all my money. Your stepmother gave you a red envelope, that's all her money. I'll treat you to diving tomorrow."
Qin Tiantian: “…”
Xue Qi's role as the evil stepmother is a sure thing!
After the meal, Qin Tiantian still didn't see any subtitles in her head.
Xue Qi speculated that there were probably two situations:
First, when Cao Yue awakened, the luck value that was deducted from Qin Tiantian had been cleared and offset, and she was completely out of the mark.
Second, Cao Yue has awakened, and the happy food no longer has any effect on him, so Qin Tiantian's luck value no longer increases.
…
Cao Feng and Tang Xiong went to clean the kitchen, while Xue Qi went for a walk on the beach carrying a small pumpkin lantern.
The waves kept hitting her ankles, making her feel extremely comfortable.
It feels so good to be free!
Just as she was enjoying the feeling of freedom, Cheng Kai called:
"Sister 7! Have you launched a short video account? Without any new videos released and without any official traffic support, your video account has gained 20,000 followers!"
Xue Qi turned on the speakerphone and opened the Douyin app at the same time: "Huh?"
Only one video has been posted on the short video platform so far. The second video is still in post-production and is planned to be released soon.
She checked the comments section of the old video and found that they were all from Cao Yue's Weibo.
Cheng Kai said: "I didn't expect Cao Yue to have so many fans and such a strong interactive stickiness. We will take advantage of this trend and release a new video in a few days! It's Chinese New Year, so we will just edit a collection of cooking videos and put it together into a full banquet. I think everyone will like it."
Xue Qi asked: "Is there anything I can do?"
Cheng Kai: "No, if you have time, you can reply to some comments, but you don't have to reply to all of them. You can also open a Weibo account and post your daily life regularly to attract followers. Anyway, just treat it as fun, don't treat it as work, and relax a little."
Xue Qi felt that this was the only benefit of signing with an agent. She only needed to cook and didn't need to worry too much about anything else. She could just do it.
She really likes this free creative state, not working just to complete a task.
According to the custom of the Spring Festival, people need to stay up all night on New Year's Eve.
Xue Qi was lying on the bed playing with his cell phone.
Around midnight, she received several WeChat messages saying "Happy New Year".
One of them was posted by Zhu Youwei.
Zhu Youwei: "Sister 77, Happy New Year. I saw Cao Yue's Weibo and knew you two were together. I've been doing what you said, sticking to fitness and losing weight, and doing good deeds. I wonder if Cao Yue's luck has increased?"
The boy listed the good things he had done in the past few days one by one.
At first he had no goal, he just wanted to help the old lady cross the road.
Afterwards, he began to help some homeless elderly people with fundraising and regularly went to help scavengers clean up their houses.
If his classmates have difficulties, he will do his best to help them.
Thinking that he didn't have much time left to live, Zhu Youwei went for a bone marrow matching, and it turned out to be a match.
Zhu Youwei's mother also agreed to let him donate bone marrow. In order to be healthier, his mother even enrolled him in a gym and encouraged him to exercise and help others with the healthiest body.
In short, Zhu Youwei feels that since he started doing good deeds, he has felt relaxed both physically and mentally.
His learning ability was taken away by the golden finger, and at first, learning new things was difficult no matter how hard he tried. But after he started doing good deeds, he actually felt that his learning ability was slowly returning.
Xue Qi was happy for him and kindly said, "That's right, this is the power of the universe's magnetic field. The more good things you do, the more positive energy you will have. When you are unlucky, don't give up on yourself. Keep doing good things, and you will find that you will be less anxious. So, be a kind person and you will never be too unlucky!"
Xue Qi sent this message and felt that he should make a pot of chicken soup on the spot.
Zhu Youwei also believed her words: "Yeah. This year my mother gave me a lot of New Year's money, and I plan to use it to help more people in need. Thank you, Sister 7, I love you, and Happy Chinese New Year!"
"New Year, New Atmosphere. In the new year, continue to live well."
Ji Tang Qi gave Zhu Youwei psychological counseling, and he fell asleep quickly due to fatigue.
-
Four days later, Xue Qi and others returned to Yanjing.
Although the Spring Festival has not yet ended, Qin Tiantian has to return to the club for training.
Blue Mountain International Sports Club recruits students with sports specialties, with the goal of training young people to join the national team.
Therefore, the training is also very demanding.
Xue Qi felt it would be boring to go back, so he simply stayed in Qin Tiantian's rental house and accompanied the girl in training.
He said he was there to practice with her, but actually he wanted to go shopping and buy some clothes in Yanjing.
After resuming training, Qin Tiantian no longer dared to eat too much. She went for a 5km run at six o'clock every morning. Seeing how dedicated and hard-working the girl was, Xue Qi would also prepare training meals for her.
Perhaps infected by the girl's seriousness, Xue Qi decided to accompany her for a morning run!
So, every morning, on the track outside the community, you can see Xue Qi riding a shared electric donkey, following Qin Tiantian and shouting, "Come on, sweet sister, you are the best!"
Qin Tiantian: “…”
When passing by a roadside stall selling roasted sweet potatoes, Xue Qi would stop and buy one.
Then he caught up with her and, while eating the hot roasted sweet potatoes, he cheered her on: "It smells so good! Keep running! If you run 7km today, I'll make you Xue's roasted sweet potatoes!"
Qin Tiantian: “…”
He was running so hard that he was out of breath, rolling his eyes, and had no energy to speak at all.
So, in just one week, Qin Tiantian's physical fitness improved by one degree.
I don’t know if it was the effect of Xue Qi’s training meals, or the effect of his unremitting efforts in running 7km!
-
The coach who trains them in the ski club was Cheng Guanlin, who was once the bronze medalist in the biathlon at the Winter Olympics.
Biathlon is a sport that combines cross-country skiing and shooting. After cross-country skiing, the athletes go to a fixed location to shoot.
This event places extremely high demands on skiers.
So far, no Chinese athlete has won a gold medal in this event. Cheng Guanlin is the first athlete to win a medal in this event.
In China, skiing is an unpopular sport, and biathlon is even more unpopular among the unpopular ones.
Therefore, this sport requires extremely high athlete quality, physical fitness, and the ability to remain calm. Of course, training athletes for this sport is also very expensive.
Xue Qi knew nothing about skiing. She came early to bring Qin Tiantian lunch, as the little girl's training had not yet finished.
The training ground is outdoors and covers a large area.
The training area is divided into ski slope area and facility area.
The facilities area is both the starting and ending point, and includes a penalty area and a shooting range. The snow trail area has smooth snow roads as well as extremely difficult slopes.
According to the rules of the competition, athletes start from the starting point and enter the snow track to compete. After completing a certain distance of cross-country skiing on the snow track, they return to the starting point, quickly calm themselves down, and enter the shooting range to start shooting.
When Xue Qi arrived, Qin Tiantian and her teammates had just returned from the snow slope and were conducting their first round of shooting.
On the training ground, the girl, wearing a competition uniform and carrying 20 bullets, returned to the starting point to conduct the first round of prone shooting!
In normal training, Qin Tiantian always lagged behind her senior schoolmate Cao Xueyu, but in today's training, she was actually ahead of Cao Xueyu.
When she finished her first round of shooting, Cao Xueyu had just returned to the starting point to do prone shooting, but she had already stood up and started sliding on the second lap of the snow track.
The coach, watching from the sidelines, frowned and scolded, "Cao Xueyu, what's wrong with you? Didn't you have breakfast this morning?"
When Cao Xueyu heard the coach's voice, her hands trembled and her shooting results were terrible.
The coach succeeded in disrupting the game and continued to scold: "With your ability to resist interference, how can you still compete? How can you make the national team? You are already a senior in high school. If you don't work hard, you will never have a chance again!"
Qin Tiantian slid up the snow slope lightly, and then slid down the slope like a flying swallow, like an ice princess. In the sunlight, her whole body seemed to be glowing.
…
This was Xue Qi's first time watching people skiing, and he immediately understood the charm of this competition.
Even got Qin Tiantian's shining point.
——Sweet girl, so cool! Mommy will give you a snack tonight!
Qin Tiantian's excellent training performance also attracted the attention of club volunteer Liu Ruyu in a corner not far from the court.
Qin Tiantian's training condition has been obviously superior in the past two days, crushing Cao Xueyu.
This can't go on.
Not only that, Liu Ruyu's golden finger also told her that Qin Tiantian's "misfortune value" is only 4 points. If she doesn't take action, Qin Tiantian will soon be off the mark.
She worked as a volunteer in the club and had been dormant for many days before she finally found an opportunity.
Her golden finger detected Cao Xueyu's negative emotions.
Although she cannot mark multiple main supporting characters at the same time, she can use the "marking" cheat to increase the "malice value" of people around Qin Tiantian, thereby accelerating Qin Tiantian's fate as a cannon fodder.
…
The girl on the training ground went to the lounge to take a short rest, and then started the last round of training.
Qin Tiantian was almost starving to death, but once she thought about finally being able to eat Xue Qi's training meal again, she felt filled with energy again.
When she came on stage, Cao Xueyu glanced at her and whispered, "Tiantian, you've been in great shape recently. Keep it up."
Qin Tiantian could hear the hostility in the other person's words: "Okay, good luck to you, senior sister!"
When the two of them came on stage, Xue Qi saw the beautiful figure of the 30 million little princess again.
Cao Xueyu followed closely in this round and was on par with the little princess!
However, just as they were going up the slope, Xue Qi suddenly saw small golden words appearing above Cao Xueyu's head:
【Malice 10.】
Xue Qi immediately turned around and walked to a higher place, and sure enough, he saw Liu Ruyu in a corner!
Small golden words also appeared above Liu Ruyu's head:
【Tag Cao Xueyu.】
[Since you have successfully increased Cao Xueyu's maliciousness, once Qin Tiantian leaves the mark, you will suffer severe backlash.]
[I'll give you a chance to withdraw your mark. Do you want to withdraw it? ]
【You have refused to withdraw. 】
How could Liu Ruyu withdraw?
As long as Cao Xueyu successfully hurts Qin Tiantian and causes her to be injured on the slope, Qin Tiantian's future sports career will be ruined.
A sports girl with a bright future, if she loses her future, her negative emotions will definitely surge!
By then, she can use the golden finger to successfully plunder everything from her.
…
Xue Qi wanted to go on the court to save people, but it was too late.
Cao Xueyu bumped into Qin Tiantian, and the girl rolled down the snow slope.
What followed was chaos.
The coach yelled, "Quick! Help!"
This was a very serious training accident!
Qin Tiantian was injured and was carried out of the training ground by medical staff. Xue Qi also got on the ambulance and went to the hospital.
In the evening, the doctor pronounced:
"Ms. Xue, your daughter has a broken leg and a spinal injury. Even if she recovers from the spinal injury, it will be difficult for her to compete again, unless a miracle happens... But what about miracles..."
Xue Qi: “…”
The girl on the hospital bed was very sad when she heard the bad news. She buried her head in the quilt and started crying.
Xue Qi asked the doctor, "Would it be convenient for me to see the report?"
The doctor handed her the film.
After the doctor left, Xue Qi patted the girl across the quilt and said, "Don't cry, you'll be fine. It's not a big problem."
The girl thought Xue Qi was trying to comfort her: "The doctors said the possibility is very small. Are you better than the doctors?"
Xue Qi: "But I'm a better cook than a doctor! Bone setting is a doctor's job, and helping you with dietary therapy to nourish your spine later on is my job. That said, while my dietary therapy is very effective, you might gain a lot of weight, so be prepared. Once your legs recover, you might go from 7km a day to 10km, or even more intense training."
Surprisingly, Qin Tiantian didn't question her words. "Really? Can I really recover? As long as I can recover, I can accept gaining ten pounds! I'm willing to strengthen my physical training every day!"
Xue Qi patted her head and said, "Don't worry, it's only 20 kilograms! At worst, I can run with you!"
Qin Tiantian was originally crying, but she was suddenly amused by her and started to snort: "You want to ride an electric donkey to run with me, right?"
Xue Qi raised two fingers: "This time I will rely on my legs. Chinese people don't lie to Chinese people!"
For some reason, her depressed mood suddenly improved a lot.
Qin Tiantian wiped her tears and whispered, "If I can really get back on the ski track, I'm willing to call you mom from now on."
Xue Qi was full of questions: "......???"
At once.
There is no need for that!
-
The news that Qin Tiantian had injured her spine and would never be able to ski again was sent to the club's WeChat group.
Because of this incident, Cao Xueyu was expelled from the club and even given a disciplinary warning by the school.
When Liu Ruyu saw the message in the group, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips.
But why didn’t she receive the news that Qin Tiantian’s negative energy was increasing?
It should be soon, just wait a little longer, be patient!
