Chapter 56
The camera was still, and Xiao Ziyu seemed to have been hit by a needle and could not move.
Yuan Heng frowned: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Ziyu blinked slowly: "The network in the village is not good. I didn't hear what you said."
Yuan Heng was almost laughing out of anger, "Don't try that on me."
Xiao Ziyu said expressionlessly: "Can you please stop thinking about this kind of thing?"
"What do you mean, kissing?" Yuan Heng leaned back on the sofa. "If you really resisted, you wouldn't have responded to me like that before."
He pushed the tip of his tongue against the side of his cheek, as if he was savoring something: "It opens when the teeth are pried open, it can't stand licking the upper palate, and it doesn't dare to move when the tip of the tongue is sucked. Once it gets used to the rhythm, it chases me for more."
Xiao Ziyu's ears were burning hot and his whole body seemed to be smoking. He was dazed and dizzy during the kiss, but he didn't expect the other party to remember it so clearly and even recounted the details shamelessly. He clearly didn't ask for it!
Xiao Ziyu interrupted, his breath trembling slightly: "Don't be a rogue."
"Then I won't bully you. I'll owe you this kiss first," Yuan Heng calculated his return, "I'll ask for it back in person when we meet again."
Xiao Ziyu opened his mouth: "You..."
"I said," Yuan Heng interrupted him, "no matter what your concerns are, I will not back down. But you really made me wait too long."
The events of the previous life have not been uncovered yet, so Xiao Ziyu cannot give a response. He doesn't want their relationship to become entangled in unclear matters like in the previous life.
But when facing Yuan Heng, he always forgot to restrain himself and gave up his bottom line again and again. If he couldn't even stick to the last principle, all his previous efforts would be wasted.
Xiao Ziyu took a deep breath: "Give me some more time."
"Time cannot be given away for nothing," Yuan Heng said, "I need a layer of insurance."
Xiao Ziyu was slightly startled: "What insurance?"
Yuan Heng touched her neck and said, "You haven't worn the necklace I gave you yet."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Ziyu stood there for a while, walked to the suitcase, bent down and pulled out a small box.
He always carries with him the necklace that Yuan Heng gave him.
The sapphires still shone brightly under the yellow light bulb. He held the small string in his palm, feeling mixed emotions. I didn't feel aggrieved, nor was I angry. It was as if my limbs had been softened by soaking in warm water. I wanted to hug something, but also wanted to curl myself up.
Xiao Ziyu fell into a deep sleep and heard a rooster crowing in the early morning. It was getting light in the morning when he woke up and was slightly startled to see the tidy bed beside him.
There wasn't even a wrinkle, and it was no different from when I went to bed last night. Wen Ci didn't come back all night.
The live broadcast didn’t start until 10 o’clock, so the show wasn’t even on. Xiao Ziyu went to the yard to stretch his legs. At dawn, Wen Ci came back from outside accompanied by his assistant. He didn't expect Xiao Ziyu to wake up so early. He smiled and greeted him: "Did you sleep well?"
Xiao Ziyu nodded, "You didn't come back last night?"
"I had some urgent matters to attend to, so I went back to take care of them. I came back late and went to sleep in the town." Wen Ci smiled. He wore a loose-fitting stand-up collar shirt today. He was sweating a little after rushing here early in the morning. He fanned himself with his hands in his ears. "The weather is getting hotter and hotter."
For breakfast, Xiao Ziyu and Wen Ci used the redemption coupons they received yesterday. After eating the hot plain noodles, the two groups split up to carry out their tasks.
There is a cultural and creative market near Lanxi Ancient Town, which gathers various cultural and creative, snack and handicraft stalls. In addition to locals, there are also tourists visiting.
Xiao Ziyu and Wen Ci loaded the chili cakes onto a cart, which took thirty minutes to push from the base camp to the market.
The dirt road in the mountains was difficult to walk on, and the sun was scorching. Wen Ci pushed forward halfway, but before he was halfway there he stopped with pale lips and beads of sweat oozing from his forehead: "Shall we take a break?"
Xiao Ziyu took out a water bottle and handed it to him. Seeing that his chest was rising and falling violently, as if he had heatstroke, he asked, "Do you want to unbutton a few buttons to help dissipate heat?"
"No need." Wen Ci touched his collar subconsciously, his movements were so fast that it seemed like a reflex, and he explained afterwards: "I am more susceptible to wind in the summer, so let's just leave it like this."
Xiao Ziyu was also feeling very hot, so he picked up a branch and used it as a hairpin, and tied his hair up into a bun. From a distance, he looked like a handsome scholar.
The screens in the live broadcast room were refreshed:
"The bun is so cute!"
"Such skillful movements, he must have done it a lot in private, how many surprises does Yu Yu's wife have that I don't know about?"
"I beg Xiaoxiao to give me a tutorial."
"I'm worried about the brain group's stamina. They look like they're pushing a baby bus."
"Xiao Xiao went to push the cart! The guy upstairs slapped me in the face, I'll just suck at this muscle."
Xiao Ziyu took over the cart again. He was wearing a loose white T-shirt and jeans. He held the handlebars with both hands. When he bent forward and exerted force, his whole arms showed beautiful lines. His collar was empty, and a platinum chain flashed by.
People who practice martial arts and dance have thin bodies but are not too frail. Xiao Ziyu raised his head slightly, veins popped out on the sides of his neck, and his T-shirt moved up a little with the movement, revealing the dimples on his waist. The cameraman seized the opportunity to take a close-up, causing a lot of screams in the live broadcast room.
"With the purest face, doing the most violent things, who understands?"
"People with a good foundation in wirework are generally not too weak."
"The cameraman is one of us, haha, this waist is so amazing!"
"Yu Yu is still too thin. There is still some room at the waist of his pants, and it feels empty inside his jeans."
"Yuyu's necklace is really unique, it seems a little familiar?"
It took nearly half an hour to walk a kilometer. When they arrived at the destination, Xiao Ziyu's face was a little red. He couldn't suppress his panting while speaking: "We need to find a stall."
"I'm sorry, I'm too weak." Wen Ci whispered. His voice was soft to begin with, and his drooping eyebrows made him look even more pitiful. "I couldn't help you at all."
"Nothing." Xiao Ziyu said this and looked around for stalls. They arrived too late, and most of the good spots were taken by others, and the remaining spots were in remote corners.
The two of them temporarily settled down at a corner. Next to them was a small stall selling handmade musical instruments, such as ocarinas, flutes, and suonas. Business was very slow.
Wen Ci took out the task card and said incredulously: "Today's task is to earn 5,000 yuan."
They only had 500 chili cakes, and if they sold them all, it would cost ten yuan each. But along the way, the price at the market was mostly around three or five yuan, not to mention this remote stall.
Time was running out, so Wen Ci picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Chili pancakes, ten yuan each, freshly baked!"
Seeing how hard he was working, fans began to feel sorry for him:
"How can you sell it at ten dollars a copy?"
"It seems that Ah Ci is not in a good condition. His face is so pale."
"It's for variety show effect. If the task is too simple, it will be boring."
There were not many people coming here to begin with. Occasionally someone would be attracted over, take a look at the price and leave. They hadn't sold many copies until noon.
Xiao Ziyu hesitated for a moment and said, "We have to lower the price."
"But this way we won't be able to complete the 5,000 yuan mission." Wen Ci hesitated.
Xiao Ziyu glanced at the small stall selling musical instruments next to him and said, "There will always be a way."
The weather was so hot that people had no appetite. Yuan Heng went to the ice box downstairs, picked out a light work meal and returned to the office, ready to cook for Xiao Ziyu.
As soon as he turned on the live broadcast and connected the headphones, a high-pitched and loud suona sound came out. Yuan Heng's hand shook and a few drops of salad splashed onto the table.
Not only the live broadcast room, but also the sultry streets at noon shook, birds fluttered and took off, and cicadas closed their wings. The first wave of tourists were already tired from shopping and were looking towards the source of the sound.
Xiao Ziyu raised a suona to his lips, and his slender fingers moved flexibly, and a cheerful and smooth melody poured out all at once, as vivid as a porcelain bottle suddenly breaking, jade beads falling on a plate, and scattering all over the ground.
The suona has a high pitch and its sound is extremely penetrating, so much so that faint noises can be heard half a mile away. Xiao Ziyu hadn't played the instrument for a long time, so his hands were a little unfamiliar. At first, the tune was gentle, but as the rhythm gradually became faster, it sounded like horse hooves or drum beats, making the entire Cultural Street bang.
Laymen come to join in the fun, experts come to listen to the inside story, and there is no shortage of knowledgeable musicians and artists strolling around the Folk Street, all wanting to see the performers in person.
Such a rough and loud tune could only be played by a strong man with great lung capacity. When I got closer, I saw only a thin young man with his hair tied up in a bun and a flushed face. His expression was cold and calm, which was completely different from the sound of the suona.
There was a brief blank in the comment section of the live broadcast room, and then rows of question marks appeared:
"I was planning to take a nap, but it shook me up."
"It's 'Carrying the Bridal Sedan'! We've learned this song before. One suona can replace an entire band. Yuyu is really good at choosing songs."
"Yu Yu is not a male Bodhisattva, he is Namo Gatlin Bodhisattva!"
"Some people are my cold and aloof wife on the surface, but secretly they can send me away with a suona [安祥.jpg]"
"Although, using this method to attract tourists is really great. I'm excited about this business! Don't let the program crew manipulate you!"
Seeing more and more people gathered around, Wen Ci seized the opportunity to promote his product: "Everyone is welcome to try our chili cakes, which are made using traditional methods and do not contain any additives."
After the price was lowered, the chili cakes sold faster, and some people even put cash into their empty bamboo baskets.
The owner of the music instrument stall next door was also stunned, and his lukewarm stall became extremely popular. He was surprised when the young man asked him to borrow the suona just now, but he didn't expect the effect to be so good.
Xiao Ziyu stopped after playing a few songs in succession. Most of the chili cakes had been sold. At the same time, his single-line account also started live streaming, and the number of viewers was almost as high as that of the group live streaming room.
The photographer smiled and said, "Just half an hour into the live broadcast, there were already thousands of people watching."
This is a very good result for a newcomer with no fan base.
Xiao Ziyu looked at the screen, and the comments were scrolling quickly. Suddenly, a message dominated the screen:
[User "李普深不离逼" rewarded sports car x1]
[The user "李普深不离逼" ranked first on the reward list. 】
Users who give high rewards will not only dominate the screen, but their IDs will also appear on the reward list. Fans laughed and asked: "What is Eric doing? Isn't he studying pottery?"
Eric has difficulty typing in Chinese, so he directly posted in the comment section in English: Keep going my honey, you are the best!
Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to dominate the screen, she filled it with pink hearts and roses.
Eric’s fans are very disappointed with him: You should take care of your own live broadcast room first! He was so lazy that his movements went beyond the camera!
Fans from both sides jumped on the stage to support each other, and even started to ship the two together with laughter. Xiao Ziyu was confused and asked, "What is this?"
"This is a reward from Eric," Wen Ci said with a smile, "Zi Yu has never played live streaming before, right?"
"Can this function be turned off?" Xiao Ziyu asked.
"Of course you can, but the program team doesn't force you to do it," said the photographer.
"Let's turn it off." Xiao Ziyu said. During the live broadcast, the audience is in high spirits, and the rewards that dominate the screen and are pinned to the top can easily make people lose their minds.
As soon as the voice fell, another reward message popped up:
[User "Changfeng Xizhu" rewarded yacht x10]
The value of a yacht is ten times that of a sports car. If the sports car is just a small purchase, then the yacht is a real expense.
Although the other party was a small account without a profile picture, Xiao Ziyu still took his breath away. Yuan Heng's behavior was a bit too high-profile.
The system continues to pop up messages: [User "Changfeng Xizhu" rewarded villa x10]
Xiao Ziyu quickly turned off the reward button, but still couldn't resist the colorful prompts that dominated the screen.
System message: [User "Changfeng Xizhu" ranked first on the reward list. 】
[User "Changfeng Xizhu" became the room manager of the live broadcast room.] 】
[The user "李普深不离逼" was kicked out of the live broadcast room by the housing management. 】
The live broadcast room was stuck for a moment, and then it exploded!
Some scheming behavior.
