Chapter 17 What kind of hell on earth is this?
The two went to the next room to discuss the date process.
Cheng Luanxin was extremely depressed. She lay on the table with a look of despair, slapping her hands on the table to make noise.
Song Qiuchi frowned and grabbed her wrist: "Sit up, let's discuss this quickly."
Cheng Luanxin was still paralyzed, with no motivation at all: "Song Qiuchi, why are we so unlucky? I was wondering how we became a model couple when we didn't do anything."
Song Qiuchi: "You also said that the audience is familiar with us, there is nothing we can do."
Cheng Luanxin said with a bitter face: "But it's so embarrassing. Just think about it, Zhiruo has to watch us chatting awkwardly and even leave comments on us. Oh my god, what kind of hell is this?"
Song Qiuchi had gotten used to Cheng Luanxin talking about Du Zhiruo all the time, and he was too lazy to complain anymore: "It's not like we haven't dated before, just treat it normally."
Cheng Luanxin: "But if we keep making appointments like this, won't our scripts be long enough?"
The script that Yu Peiyin originally gave the two of them only had eight date scenarios, namely returning to their alma mater, visiting Cheng Luanxin's home, baking desserts, experiencing a pet shop, taking a hot spring bath, attending a music festival, camping at the beach to watch the sunrise, and shopping in a home furnishing store. In less than a week, two of them had already been completed.
Song Qiuchi thought for a moment and said, "Just follow the script first. If it's not enough, you can send a message to your agent to add more."
The two finally reached a consensus and took on the baking challenge together.
Half an hour later, the live broadcast began.
Cheng Luanxin and Song Qiuchi stood in front of the camera and greeted it: "Friends, can you hear us?"
Barrage:
Su Ling: "I can hear you, it turns out being a romantic observer is so interesting.
Zhuang Mingchu: "I can hear it"
Bian Ning: "I'm really looking forward to it!"
Cheng Luanxin scratched her head. "If the equipment is fine, you should be able to hear it. Today, Luanxin and I are planning a baking challenge. If nothing goes wrong, everyone will receive our loving desserts tonight."
Song Qiuchi said, "This is our first time, so please don't have any expectations of our craftsmanship."
Cheng Luanxin: "Are you saying discouraging things now?!"
Barrage:
He Ran: "I'm dying of laughter. How come you two are acting like a crosstalk?"
Lin Zhiyun: "So Chi Xin secretly has this style."
Liang Shengxia: "Then we'll just have to wait for the little loving desserts that aren't very well made!"
Cheng Luanxin and Song Qiuchi exchanged a glance and said, "I'm not kidding you guys anymore. Let's go to the supermarket to shop now."
Song Qiuchi opened the door of the nanny car for Cheng Luanxin: "Get in."
There was only one oven in the dormitory and no other baking utensils, so all the equipment had to be bought on the spot.
Cheng Luanxin searched for baking tutorials on her phone: "What do you think we should make today?"
Song Qiuchi said, "Why don't we ask everyone what they want to eat? Please type in the comment box with the dessert you want."
Barrage:
Su Ling: "Can I still choose any one? With such good benefits?"
Du Zhiruo: "Anything is fine? I want to eat taro paste cake."
Duan Mengshu: "How about a soy milk carton?"
Cheng Luanxin: "Everyone, feel free to express your opinions. We can't receive them anyway."
Su Ling: "...I actually believed it."
Bian Ning: "Hahahahahahahaha I'm dying of laughter"
Song Qiuchi moved closer to Cheng Luanxin and looked at the phone screen with her: "Have you found anything suitable?"
Cheng Luanxin pushed the phone in front of her and said, "It's so difficult. How about we just bake some egg tarts? I know there are ready-made egg tart crusts and egg tart liquid in the supermarket. Even a fool can make them."
Song Qiuchi: "...Look at something else. I don't really want to be a fool."
The two spent a long time choosing and finally decided to make donuts. Donuts look good and taste delicious. The key is that they are easy to make and not easy to fail.
Cheng Luanxin held up her phone: "I'll watch the video to see what's needed to make donuts. You write it down in your memo."
Song Qiuchi nodded: "No problem."
Cheng Luanxin followed the instructions: "Hmm, stainless steel basin, porcelain bowl, egg beater..."
Song Qiuchi frowned. "A stainless steel basin too? Don't you have one in the kitchen?"
Cheng Luanxin couldn't remember for a moment whether there was a stainless steel basin in the kitchen. Logically, there should be, but she was not sure.
Song Qiuchi continued, "You don't need to buy porcelain bowls. We definitely have them in the kitchen. You have absolutely no common sense. Let me tell you and you remember."
Cheng Luanxin curled her lips and said, "If you come, then come. Here you go."
Song Qiuchi turned the video to the end, paused, and said, "Eggs, sugar, salt, corn oil, low-gluten flour, baking powder..."
Cheng Luanxin interrupted: "Stop, stop. You say I don't have common sense, but you have it, don't you? Is there no sugar, no salt, no eggs in the kitchen? Were the scrambled eggs with tomatoes you ate last night made fresh by the chicken?"
Song Qiuchi: "..."
Song Qiuchi: "Maybe it's just run out?"
Cheng Luanxin: "In my opinion, we should buy everything used in the video, just in case."
Song Qiuchi was silent for a moment: "Whatever you say."
Cheng Luanxin raised her head proudly: "Change it back, and remember what I said."
The barrage is about to die of laughter:
Liang Shengxia: "Hahahahahaha, Chi Xin's secret is really funny."
Su Ling: "The scrambled eggs with tomatoes you ate last night were made fresh by the chicken?"
He Ran: "I really didn't expect Qiu Chi to have this kind of personality before."
Lin Zhiyun: "I kind of get what Chi Xin secretly wants."
Du Zhiruo originally typed a line of something, but when he saw the comments, he seemed to be thinking about something and deleted it all.
Along the way, the two of them bickered with each other, but they finally recorded all the supplies needed to make donuts and arrived at the supermarket smoothly.
The staff reminded: "After selecting the products, don't pay directly. Remember to come to me to exchange tokens."
Cheng Luanxin was stunned: "What tokens are you exchanging for? Haven't I already given you the tokens for the ride?"
The staff was also stunned: "Don't you know yet? All purchases must be exchanged for rose tokens, and each token can be exchanged for one item."
Cheng Luanxin and Song Qiuchi looked at each other in bewilderment. They truly had no idea. After all, the rice wine dumplings on their first date were paid for by the hostess, and the perfume on their second date was a gift from Cheng Luanxin's grandmother. Neither had cost any money.
Song Qiuchi frowned. "One token can be exchanged for one commodity. Doesn't that have anything to do with the price of the commodity?"
The staff nodded: "Yes, for the convenience of accounting, one token corresponds to one commodity."
Cheng Luanxin was dumbfounded. No matter how many tokens she had, they couldn't afford to spend like this. There were nearly thirty kinds of materials they wanted to buy, and the consumption was too huge.
Although she wasn't a thrifty person, she had always loved hoarding things. Of course, she was reluctant to part with her rose tokens, so she tried to negotiate with the staff, "But weren't we chosen today for everyone to observe and learn from? Why do we have to spend our own money?"
The staff nodded: "This is the program rule."
Cheng Luanxin pouted and looked at Song Qiuchi pitifully.
Song Qiuchi: "Just spend it. There are group activities next week, so you can earn more."
Cheng Luanxin blinked pitifully: "Then you have to share it with me equally?"
Song Qiuchi: "...Can you be more generous?"
Barrage:
Zhuang Mingchu: "They just realized they need rose tokens to buy things?"
Du Zhiruo: "Maybe I haven't had the opportunity to spend money before."
Su Ling: "I was dying of laughter at their stinginess."
Liang Shengxia: "Hahahaha, the richer you are, the stingier you become."
The stingy Cheng Luanxin and Song Qiuchi pushed the shopping cart into the supermarket together. They first came to the kitchen supplies area and picked out items along the shelves.
Song Qiuchi picked up a stainless steel basin and was about to put it in the shopping cart, but was stopped by Cheng Luanxin. She picked up a larger stainless steel basin on the shelf and said, "Buy this one. It's bigger and more expensive. It's a good deal."
Song Qiuchi was helpless: "The bottom of this basin is so big, do you think it is convenient to stir it?"
Cheng Luanxin opened her eyes wide: "But there are ten of us in total, and there are so many staff members. If the basin is too small, won't it be enough?"
Song Qiuchi: "I think this capacity is sufficient."
Cheng Luanxin: "I don't think that's enough. How about we play rock-paper-scissors, best two out of three?"
Song Qiuchi put the pot in his hand back on the shelf in a bad mood: "No need to cut it, buy a big one."
Cheng Luan held the basin proudly and walked in front humming a little tune.
Barrage:
Su Ling: "This basin is too big, hahahahahaha. How many donuts does Qiu Chi plan to make?"
Lin Zhiyun: "It's so natural for them to get along with each other."
Zhuang Mingchu: "It's really sweet."
Only Du Zhiruo did not comment, and she was the only one who could hear that the melody hummed by Song Qiuchi on the screen was none other than Cheng Luanxin's debut song "Three Years of Love Talk".
She always thought that this song was written by Cheng Luanxin specifically for her, but now it seems that it may not be the case.
