Chapter 10: Getting Grumpy



The little red beans were shivering with anger.

—Ahhh, this shitty variety show! Isn't this clearly bullying our Sibao? Wild Ganoderma can only be redeemed for 100 points? Did the director even graduate from elementary school?

——Say that and it’s insulting to elementary school students. Even elementary school students know this is unfair! ╭(╯^╰)╮

Yesterday's wild fruit was exchanged for 52 points, but today's three rare herbs can only be exchanged for 100 points? Can you please have some shame?

——This is clearly suppressing my daughter. Damn, the guy next door is laughing so hard that his face is about to break.

——I’m angry, I’m going to attack the official Weibo!

——It’s useless. We have a small fan base, and the official Weibo account can delete all the posts in one night. I can see that this crappy variety show is shameless.

——Sisters, don’t panic, I have taken the screenshots to the professor to assess the value of wild Ganoderma lucidum!

—Don't rush the official account. Sibao already has a lot of bad history. Let's just create a trending topic like "What's it like to dig up wild Ganoderma lucidum on a wilderness survival variety show?" and get positive searches! It's no wonder Sibao is popular!

——I can’t hold back any more! Family, I’m going!

——The girl has finished her homework. She probably doesn’t know about the suppression yet. Dog variety show!

In the live broadcast room, Li Changsi finished the test paper, moved his stiff and sore shoulders, went downstairs to have dinner, and saw that everyone in the hall had different expressions, as if something had happened.

Rong Shu, who was always amiable, had a tense expression on his face: "Changsi, have you checked WeChat?"

"What's the matter?" Li Changsi narrowed his eyes. Has the program crew made trouble again?

"The program team has changed the exchange rules. The upper limit for material exchange is 100 points."

Bai Zhuo raised his superior jawline and looked at Li Changsi. He wanted to see how Li Changsi would face the suppression from the program crew!

Li Changsi raised his eyebrows and glanced at the staff behind the camera with a half-smile: "It's quite fair."

Everyone: “???”

Is Li Changsi stupid?

Rong Shu frowned: "Changsi, your three Ganoderma lucidum can only be exchanged for 100 points!"

Li Changsi took a sip of hot water elegantly: "Then don't exchange it."

She had no intention of exchanging the wild Ganoderma lucidum from the beginning. She had a collecting habit. It might be because she had too few things when she was young and often went hungry. Later, when she was in power, the Changxin Palace was full of collections, and she felt happy just looking at them every day.

Everyone is confused?

Rong Shu was stunned, and suddenly realized that Li Changsi didn't take these things to heart at all. There seemed to be stars and sea in her eyes, and she was looking at a world that he could not see.

Lin Lushen burst out laughing and said, "Sister, I wrote a new song with two female leads, and I'm still looking for a female lead for the MV. Would you like to come? I'll pay you."

The girl with woolly curls smiled and showed two small fangs. She had been observing Li Changsi for three days and was stunned when she saw him. He had fair skin, beautiful face, long legs, and a hint of laziness in his coolness. She was simply the perfect heroine of her MV. Moreover, after observing him for these three days, she found that Li Changsi was very interesting and was not at all like what was said on the Internet.

She likes this sister.

As soon as Lin Lushen opened her mouth, Tian Ye nearly choked on the water. She reached out and rubbed her woolen curls, complaining, "Xiaolu, we've lived and died together for three days. Am I not worthy of being the star of your MV?"

Lin Lushen has over 100 million fans, and any new song she releases can immediately create a new trend. Why did she ask Li Changsi to shoot the MV for her new song?

The guests looked constipated. Didn’t they deserve it? Didn’t they deserve it? Didn’t they deserve it?

Lin Lushen must have lost his mind to choose Li Changsi, who has a lot of scandals, to shoot a music video! How did she become so famous?

Lin Lushen opened his big round eyes and covered his wool curls: "Double female lead MV, brother, you really can't do it!"

Tian Ye complained: "It turns out that I was ruthlessly eliminated just because I am a man!"

Song Xingyue and Ran Lin on the side were heartbroken. It turned out that they were not worthy!

With Tian Ye's jokes, the atmosphere became more harmonious and relaxed.

Li Changsi just thought that Lin Lushen was trying to help her out and save her from the embarrassment of being suppressed by the program crew. She didn't take the MV shooting seriously and went out for a walk.

Everyone had different thoughts upon seeing this. Li Changsi was either incredibly stupid or deeply scheming. The production team had suppressed her in front of hundreds of millions of viewers, clearly not wanting her to win the first episode's endorsement award. In other words, the sponsor had eliminated her from the endorsement pool from the outset.

If it were someone else, even if they swallowed their anger, they would still secretly make their fans stir up trouble. But she just casually said it was fair?

Good god, I can’t do anything to them.

Is she really just a foolish beauty? Has she failed to grasp the stakes? However, they weren't very familiar with Li Changsi, and with her extensive online history, no one stood up for her. Ultimately, they were all competitors!

The director team was also confused.

"Director, Li Changsi seems to be confused while doing the test!"

The director smiled and said, "That's perfect! Let's all have a good sleep tonight! Time to call it a day!"

The directors went to bed happily, while the little red beans were all ready to start working.

#What is it like to dig up wild Ganoderma lucidum in a wilderness survival variety show? #

This topic of unexpected wealth, coupled with Li Changsi's stunning beauty, attracted people who stayed up late and passers-by to click on it, and the topic became a hot topic in the middle of the night.

——It’s like I only have 2 yuan left in my pocket, I buy a lottery ticket, and then I win 1 million! Wow, I quit my job immediately, it’s so cool! (dog head)

——I’m crying! Where’s this wilderness survival game? I’m going to fly out and dig! (crying)

Can you dig up wild Ganoderma lucidum in the mountains? Don't you have to hand it over to the government?

——There’s no need for that. The deep mountain rain forest is ownerless and it’s not a national nature reserve. Wait for someone who understands.

——How much does wild Ganoderma lucidum cost?

——I asked again and again. He sent it to the professor in our department in the afternoon and said he would give me a reply after research.

——Oh shit, our professor just replied to me! ! ! !

——Next time I will definitely crowdfund to buy an online friend who can finish what he is saying. Why don’t you just say it!

—Our professor wants to see the real thing! This Ganoderma is very likely a rare species!!!

——It’s a very good story. Don’t write it again next time.

——My grandfather is an old Chinese medicine doctor. He said that wild Ganoderma lucidum is not as valuable as wild ginseng. A hundred-year-old wild ginseng can be auctioned for several million yuan, and Ganoderma lucidum is worth tens of thousands of yuan depending on its appearance.

It turns out it's only worth tens of thousands of yuan. The office workers feel their dreams of getting rich by digging Ganoderma lucidum are shattered and are heartbroken.

--For scientific purposes only, if Ganoderma lucidum is not picked when it is ripe, it will become woody and eventually rot. There is no such thing as Ganoderma lucidum that can live for hundreds or thousands of years, so everyone can just forget about it.

——Oh, I’m sorry, I made a mistake.

Netizens mocked the show and then dispersed. However, the trending topic remained overnight, and passers-by remembered the wilderness survival variety show and the beautiful young lady who dug up wild Ganoderma lucidum in it.

Day 4 of wilderness survival.

Early in the morning, Bai Zhuo was woken up by a phone call.

"Azhuo, where exactly is your village located?"

Bai Zhuo shuddered and almost fell off the bed, and immediately hung up the phone.

"You little bastard, just try and hang up the phone!"

Bai Zhuo's face darkened, and he muttered, "Grandpa, besides you, who else is here?"

"And me," said Mr. Zhao Qi, a national Go player of the ninth dan rank, with a chuckle. "Your grandfather and I arrived last night but didn't dare disturb you. I'm going to visit you today and bring you some local specialties."

Bai Zhuo pressed his forehead weakly: "Teacher, we are filming a wilderness survival variety show, we can't eat outside food."

He seemed fake, but he was really looking for Li Changsi to play chess. Bai Zhuo was a little upset. If his grandfather knew that Li Changsi liked him, he wouldn't sell his grandson, right? Damn, chess addiction is harmful.

"Brother Zhuo, why are you up so early?" Tian Ye was woken up. Seeing Bai Zhuo got up, washed, and dressed neatly, he muttered. He had been hiking and exploring these days, and he was exhausted every day when he came back. How could he get up so early?

"Yeah." Bai Zhuo opened the door and went out. It was already light outside and the early roosters were crowing.

He walked into the yard and saw Li Changsi standing on the terrace. She was wrapped in a thick tasseled shawl, her body shrouded in the thin morning light, and her eyes were looking deep into the distance.

She gave him a cold look and turned to go into the house.

Bai Zhuo stood there in a daze, seeing indifference and alienation in that condescending look, as well as an innate coldness and nobility!

Is that Li Changsi?

Li Changsi is always in a bad mood when he wakes up, especially after three consecutive days of high-intensity rainforest exploration. His body is overwhelmed and he has nightmares, which makes his mood even worse when he wakes up.

"Zizi, are you up yet?" The agent called cautiously, a hint of excitement in his voice. "Just to report, your Weibo followers have increased by 500,000 in the past few days, your super topic followers have increased to 320,000, and your live broadcast room popularity has remained stable at over a million, currently ranking fourth in popularity.

"Hey, this momentum is very good. Now some small endorsements have come to me to discuss cooperation. Although the endorsement fee is not high, why not give it a try? Even a mosquito leg is meat."

Qibi was excited for several days, working day and night to stay in the live broadcast room, manage the super topic, set up a group, and set up a fan club for Li Changsi. After three years, Li Changsi finally had a clear mind. Whether he could redeem himself and become popular again depended on this time.

"No." Li Changsi said gloomily, "I need to take the exam."

"If you don't want to sign, then don't sign. These are just endorsements for some three-no products. The endorsement fees are not high but there are risks. Zizi, do you really want to take the art exam? What are you taking the exam for?" Qiubi was a little worried. Why not find a teacher to give Li Changsi extra lessons? It's too late to learn a musical instrument now, and she can't dance. She just looks worried.

"Whatever you want to take the test on. It's fine, I'm going to quit."

"Wait, wait a minute. Mr. Zhao has tagged you several times before, inviting you to play chess. If you don't respond on Weibo, you'll get trolled! How's your chess skill, kid?"

"It's just okay," Li Changsi said calmly. She had little patience and didn't really enjoy playing chess. Her chess skills weren't even one-tenth as good as her teacher's. But her teacher loved playing chess, and he would often sit under a pear tree, playing chess with his left and right hands. At that time, the tree was full of pear blossoms, which fell softly...

She closed her eyes and suppressed the anger in her heart.

Qibi sighed in disappointment. It was a lucky coincidence, after all, knowing her for three years, he'd never heard her mention her chess skills. The Jingcheng world was full of people, so it was best to avoid them if possible.

"Then let's not play chess anymore. Mr. Zhao is Bai Zhuo's teacher, so we should stay away from him." She had finally pulled herself out of Bai Zhuo's deep pit, so she shouldn't fall into it again.

"Yeah." Li Changsi hung up the phone and got up for a morning run.

On the fourth day of wilderness survival, before the guests set off, the isolated village welcomed the first group of important figures.
