Chapter 120
At six in the morning, the alarm clock rang on time.
Hearing the loud and high-pitched sound of the new suona, Chi Qi frowned, covered his ears, then turned over to lie on his side, curled up in the quilt and continued to sleep.
I don't want to get up at all.
The sound of the suona did not wake up the person who set the alarm, but woke up someone else instead.
Beside him, Xie Mu, whose head was buzzing from the noise, opened his eyes and put out his hand to block out the bright light. After gradually getting used to it, he turned his head to look at Chi Qi who was sleeping soundly.
Half of his face was buried in the pillow, his expression was calm, and his breathing was shallow.
How can anyone sleep in such an environment?
Xie Mu reached out and pushed the boy's shoulder, remembering what he had told him last night. He must wake him up in time, "Don't sleep anymore, it's time to get up."
Chi Qi responded perfunctorily, "Yeah."
After a while, Xie Mu, who was unable to bear it anymore, stretched out his arms around Chi Qi's neck and turned off the alarm clock that continued to make noise.
"You'll be late if you don't get up soon."
Chi Qi slowly lifted his heavy eyelids, pulled off the quilt to reveal his eyebrows, and thought slowly for a few seconds, as if he finally remembered that he still had to record a variety show.
He looked at Xie Mu who disturbed his sleep, and took out his anger on him. He said in an unhappy tone, "You get up with me." He made up a random excuse, "Keeping the same schedule is conducive to the harmonious development of the relationship."
"good."
Ten minutes later, Xie Mu, neatly dressed, stood beside the bed, looking with complicated eyes at Chi Qi, who was still lying on the bed, sleeping motionlessly.
How come he fell asleep again when he just changed his clothes?
"Wake up."
"Don't sleep."
Chi Qi was very annoyed by the calls coming one after another in his ears, and muttered something under his breath.
What are you shouting about? Aren't I already up? 】
stand up? I must have woken up in a dream.
Xie Mu patted his cheek and continued to shout, "Wake up, you can't sleep anymore."
Chi Qi was in a daze, and felt that his brain was sucked firmly into the whirlpool. He struggled hard, trying to escape the suction, and finally at some point, he regained consciousness.
What he saw was the ceiling above his head, and the touch of his palms was silky. When he realized that he was still lying in bed, he was at a loss, "Why am I still lying in bed?"
Because you didn’t get up at all, Xie Mu answered in his mind, “You were lying in bed the whole time.”
He stuffed the prepared clothes into Chi Qi's hands.
After coaxing himself for a long time, he decided to get up. After opening his eyes, he found that everything just now happened in a dream. This realization made Chi Qi feel even worse.
He lowered his head and said slowly, "Turn around."
Xie Mu was puzzled, "Why? Are you shy?"
It’s not like I haven’t seen it before... I fell on the bed, turned on the light and saw everything clearly. Why would I feel shy about changing clothes at this time?
He couldn't figure it out, or maybe that wasn't the reason.
There was no specific reason, it was simply that someone didn't sleep well and was in a bad mood. Chi Qi glanced at him indifferently, stood up, but did not change clothes, but chose to wash up first.
The toothpaste was also thoughtfully squeezed in advance, and the cup was filled with water, so he could use it directly.
His mouth was full of foam, and the refreshing mint smell made Chi Qi sober up a little. He raised his eyelids and looked at himself in the mirror expressionlessly.
The startup time is too short and there is no time to get over the boring mood.
[Ahhhhh, this is so annoying! I hope that everyone who is still sleeping in bed will fall down for no reason! 】
After quickly washing his face and rinsing his mouth, he put the toothbrush and cup back in place. Chi Qi stretched out his finger and drew a crying face in the center of the mirror covered with steam: T^T
Not a happy way to start the day.
Leaving the sink and passing by the rack at the door, Chi Qi grabbed a towel and threw it on Xie Mu's head, covering his eyes before starting to unbutton his clothes.
Are you still angry?
Xie Mu didn’t understand before why his mother always liked to forward him videos of the angry little squirrel, until just now he realized - they were indeed alike, with the same temper.
After thinking for a while, he retracted his messy guesses and straightened his expression.
The vision was blocked, and other senses became more acute. A faint sweet fragrance lingered at the tip of the nose, the slight sound of fabric rubbing against each other was heard in the ears, and there was a gray haze in front of the eyes.
Wait, grey?
He vaguely remembered that Chi Qi's bath towel was also gray.
"!"
Xie Mu held his breath, but the scent went straight into his nose.
They had slept together before, hugging and clinging to each other in the same bed. Not only were they scented, they even had no idea how many times they had touched each other.
Logically speaking, you shouldn't care.
But personal emotions are always changeable and unpredictable. Maturity and ease are all gone. Xie Mu has become exceptionally innocent. His body is stiff and he is at a loss. He doesn't even know where to put his arms.
Two minutes later, Chi Qi put on his clothes, took off the towel, shook it, and put it back on the rack.
Then, he noticed Xie Mu's unnaturalness.
"You look like that, did you do something to offend me?" Chi Qi stared at him and asked, "Did you peek at me?"
Xie Mu put his fist to his lips and coughed, his eyes wandering, "No."
"Really?" This action made Chi Qi even more confused, "Do you know that the most taboo thing between lovers is to hide things?"
"Not only that, couples are also very taboo to be suspicious of each other." Xie Mu didn't want to continue talking to him about this, fearing that the truth would be exposed, so he changed the subject, "If we don't continue, we will really be late."
After being delayed upstairs for so long, as expected, Chi Qi was the last one to come downstairs. However, it was not yet time for recording, so he was not too late.
The guests sat together and chatted, complaining that they had to get up too early today.
Considering that the time spent on the road was too long and worried that it would delay the recording progress, Niu Kulu moved the start time forward by one hour.
Fu Chenglin joked, "Since I arrived, I've gotten up earlier. Is Director Niu targeting me?"
Chi Qi vented his anger equally on everyone he was close to, and said bluntly: "You have some self-awareness."
Fu Chenglin, "."
No one will think you are dumb if you don't speak.
Chi Sulu got up at five o'clock to put on makeup. The camera was not turned on yet, so she lay lazily and yawned several times.
The two girls, Meng Tianyu and Xia Xianyin, were not in a very good condition either, exuding a gloomy aura.
"Is this variety show necessary?"
"Come home, kid, please let me go home, okay?"
The sighs became louder and louder, and everyone looked at each other and talked.
Not long after, Niu Kulu appeared in front of everyone. He was stared at by ten resentful eyes. He shuddered all over, "Didn't I get up at this time too?"
As a director, he not only gets up early, but also goes to bed late. He is the most miserable one!
Niu Kulu clapped his hands and said, "Come on, everyone, cheer up and start the live broadcast."
Chi Sulu immediately sat up straight, took a deep breath, and tucked her hair behind her ears, trying to appear in front of the camera in perfect condition.
A large number of netizens flocked in.
[Come here, it’s so early today. ]
[I feel sleepy, so I watch some variety shows to refresh myself. ]
"A day's plan begins in the morning. Let's play a little game on this beautiful morning."
"The game is very simple, it's called Three Words to Make a Sentence. You will be given three words, and then you need to make a coherent and logical sentence within the next 30 seconds." Niu Kulu introduced the rules, "Warm reminder, guests who can't make a sentence will not get free breakfast."
He said: "The words were provided by netizens, and the comments were randomly selected by taking screenshots."
[I like this segment, everyone please watch me perform! ]
[It’s time for me to show off my skills, you must pick me! ]
Niu Kulu looked at everyone encouragingly, "Does anyone want to be the first to try?"
The guests, who lacked enthusiasm because they got up early, sat still, looking at each other for a long time.
"No one took the initiative so I called the name."
"Let me do it." Fu Chenglin stepped forward and asked, "Please give me some normal words."
After the staff took the screenshot, he picked a comment very casually, "The fifth comment from the top."
——Blackened by the whole network, an unknown actor, and the best actor.
The countdown started at 30 seconds. Fu Chenglin took over the live broadcast equipment from the program team and raised his eyebrows at the three words, "From being a nobody who was blacklisted by the whole network to becoming the best actor."
[The unknown celebrity who was blackened by the whole network and the movie king agreed to get married. ]
[The secretly married wife of the movie star is an unknown figure who is blackened by the whole network! ]
[The movie star travels through a book: He is no longer a famous person who has been blackened by the whole network! ]
[Where have you been for me? I was clearly watching a variety show, but why were all of them posting titles of books about green and tomato? ]
The second guest who stood up and tried was Kuang Ye. He stayed up late playing games last night, and the lights in the room were still on at three o'clock in the morning.
At this time, he was sleepy and drowsy, and he could only stay awake by thinking about the huge amount of liquidated damages.
The comments started to grow rapidly.
Kuang Ye called a stop at some point and looked down at the selected comments.
——Concert tickets, give them to me.
It was unexpectedly simple. Kuang Ye said without hesitation: "Give me a ticket to your concert."
Niu Kulu nodded, "Okay, passed."
The focus of the barrage is different from his.
[It’s a conditioned reflex. When I see a concert, I think: the idol announces his relationship at the concert. ]
[The top streamer said nothing, but just kept posting on Weibo for half an hour before the number of views exceeded 10,000. ]
[The production crew remained silent and just kept the live broadcast a secret from the guests.] ]
[The netizen remained silent, just blindly vicious and brainless. ]
[How many articles about the entertainment industry have you read? ]
The following comments are more or less off track due to the influence of the previous two.
So the three words that came to Lu Jinyue’s mind were – mortal enemy, romance variety show, and explosion of popularity.
He didn't hesitate and quickly gave the answer, "My extremely popular rival participated in a dating show."
[I became famous after appearing in a romance show with my arch-enemy. ]
[He became gay after dating his most popular rival on a romance show. ]
[The hottest romance variety show, breaking up the gay and homophobic enemies! ]
The words Jiang Bieshan drew were similar to his - mortal enemy, official announcement, and the whole world.
At first glance, it is a masterpiece of "The Mountains Are Far Away and the Road Is Long".
Hidden CP fan Meng Tianyu excitedly clenched her hands, her eyes sparkling, hoping that the real protagonist would personally give her some sweets to comfort her who woke up early.
Whether she can be resurrected with full health depends on the answer below.
Jiang Bieshan stared at these three words, and said at the last moment: "The mortal enemy officially announced the new endorsement to the world."
Wrong, you are wrong!
Meng Tianyu deflated like a punctured balloon. She wanted to cover Jiang Bieshan's mouth and shout: The whole world is waiting for me and my mortal enemy to officially announce our relationship!
The comments on the forum empathized with her.
[After my arch-enemy officially announced his relationship with me, the whole world went wild! ]
[Officially announcing my relationship with my arch-enemy to the world. ]
After being a spectator for several shows in a row, the hungry Chi Qi stood up eagerly in order to eat early.
The process was the same as the previous person, and he quickly blindly selected the comments.
The only difference is.
【Um? Why did the word I drew seem so out of place? 】
After seeing the content of the comment, the barrage of comments flashed across.
[This is a classic poem that has been passed down.] ]
I knew these three words would come. ]
——Brother, boyfriend, husband.
Chi Qi recited the three words and subconsciously formed a sentence in his mind.
[My brother was my boyfriend at first and then became my husband? 】
Later, he vetoed it again.
[No, you can’t say that.] 】
Chi Qi reorganized his words and answered on point, "It's Chinese New Year, and I'm making dumplings with my brother, boyfriend, and sister's husband."
Niu Kulu made the decision, "Passed."
…
After playing a round of games, everyone got breakfast as they wished.
Each person gets a big white steamed bun with pickles.
Behind them, the staff sat around the dining table, with a variety of nutritious breakfasts in front of them, which were delicious and nutritious. They ate and made loud and exaggerated exclamations of admiration.
Guests, "..."
The guests turned their heads to look at the rich breakfast, then looked at the steamed buns and pickles in their hands. After comparing the two, they couldn't eat them at all.
Lu Jinyue is a very picky eater. He smelled the steamed bun and it smelled like it was taken out of the freezer. He took it away with disgust and said, "Can I change it? I don't want to eat steamed buns."
It's dry and choking, and not tasty.
"Sure." Niu Kulu held a steamed dumpling in his left hand, a ham and egg pancake in his right hand, and hot milk in front of him. He smiled, "As long as you are willing to pay, you can eat anything."
"Then I'd rather eat steamed buns." Lu Jinyue was prepared to make do with it. He and Jiang Bieshan had the least money left, so every expense had to be calculated carefully.
He took small bites, and each bite was very difficult.
"Give me a basket of xiao long bao."
"No problem, thirty yuan a cage."
While he was absent-minded, he saw someone buying breakfast from the production team. Lu Jinyue thought absentmindedly, thirty yuan for a basket, that's too much of a rip-off, who would spend money so lavishly?
It should be the rich groups, and has nothing to do with a poor man like him.
"for you."
Hearing the familiar voice, Lu Jinyue looked up and saw a steamed dumpling with paper-thin skin and even folds appearing in front of him. It was still emitting hot white steam and it was obvious that it had just come out of the oven.
Lu Jinyue, "???"
"You bought it?" He was surprised. "Did you spend thirty yuan?"
Jiang Bieshan hummed, and seeing that he was still not answering, "Don't you want to eat Xiaolongbao?" he asked, "Then I'll ask Director Niu to change it for you?"
"No, no, no." Lu Jinyue wanted to eat, but he didn't want to spend money, let alone waste it. At this moment, his mind was full of thoughts, "Can I return it?"
Niu Kulu said mercilessly, "I can't return it. We don't support unconditional returns."
Lu Jinyue struggled, "I have reasons!"
Niukulu will never return the money he has earned. He holds on to his wallet tightly and acts like an unscrupulous merchant. "The reason is invalid. Once the product is sold, no refund will be accepted."
Unable to get a refund, and in order not to waste food, Lu Jinyue had no choice but to eat all the dumplings with delicious and rich soup, one at a time, with tears in his eyes.
It doesn’t matter. Even if he spends another thirty yuan, his group’s ranking won’t change.
It’s always the last one anyway.
Chi Qi pinched the cool, hard buns and felt that he had discovered something incredible. "I have a question. Are the buns the same ones from last night?"
"Yes." Niu Kulu nodded and admitted readily, "Although the steamed buns were made yesterday, they won't go bad if they are kept in the refrigerator overnight. Don't worry, you won't get diarrhea if you eat them.
“…”
Chi Qi took a bite of the hard steamed bun and chewed it several times before swallowing it. He thought to himself, "That's good. The fact that I can chew it means that I have good teeth."
Meng Tianyu had only eaten half a steamed bun, but she had already drunk two large glasses of water. She asked with a look of despair, "How much money do we have left?"
Chi Qi gave a more conservative number, "One hundred and fifty should be around, right?"
Meng Tianyu took out a few coins and some whole bills, "There's only one hundred and twenty-seven left."
The plan to buy breakfast fell apart halfway through.
[Hahahahahaha, I deliberately guessed less, took out the money in my pocket and counted it, and found that it was even less. ]
[So poor, just a few seconds of pity. ]
