Chapter 47 Passionate Couple

Wen Yan picked up a dish of stir-fried mushrooms nearby. The freshness of the mushrooms and the spiciness of the chili blended in her mouth. It was fried in a large pot over a firewood fire. Wen Yan exclaimed, "It's delicious. Big brother is so lucky. Big sister-in-law's cooking skills are really great. It's much better than what we eat outside."

Seeing that Wen Yan liked it, the couple smiled with satisfaction.

Mrs. Qian picked up the serving chopsticks and started serving food to Wen Yan. Fearing that he would feel embarrassed, she gave him a little of each dish.

Sister Qian: "If you like it, eat more. These are all worthless things from the countryside. You don't have to be polite to me if you want to eat something. Just tell me and I'll make it for you."

Wen Yan looked at the high pile of food in her bowl and tears welled up in her eyes. It had been a long time since anyone had picked up food for her, let alone such warm and caring words and someone smilingly said they would make her favorite food.

Even in a childhood that should have been carefree, there are few such tender moments in memory, especially after the man abandoned his wife and children.

The man called "father" left, and the remaining orphans and widowed mother were often criticized by others, but that didn't matter. Later, the mother might have become ill due to overwork, or it might be that she had a heart disease that was difficult to cure, but in the end she was seriously ill.

Wen Yan had a difficult time during those years. It was so difficult that he had to spend all his time making a living and studying. As for his own hobbies, he had almost no hobbies. He ate whatever was available and bought whatever was cheap.

The couple saw Wen Yan suddenly stop eating. They took a look and were shocked, their eyes turned red.

Mrs. Qian quickly poured Wen Yan a glass of warm water: "Is it too spicy? It's all my fault. I like to cook with strong flavors. If you are not used to it, I will not put chili in it tomorrow. Hurry and drink some water."

Wen Yan listened to the concern of this simple woman, tears fell from her eyes and she squeezed out a smile: "Sister-in-law, I like to eat, I just think of my family."

The couple looked at each other. It couldn't be that she was homesick and wanted to cry. She instinctively told them not to ask anything.

But Wen Yan continued: "My family is gone, and there is no one to cook at home. I just ate the delicious meal made by my sister-in-law, and I lost my composure."

When Mrs. Qian heard Wen Yan say that all her family members were gone, she felt heartbroken.

This kid is only a few years older than her own kid, right? Such a good-looking kid is so pitiful, and her motherly love overflows all of a sudden, and she picks up the food more frequently.

"Come on, come on, eat more. You won't miss home if you're full."

Wen Yan laughed, this is just to coax a child.

Seeing people only caring about picking food for him, he quickly said, "Sister-in-law, there's no need to pick more for me. I can't finish all this. Just eat by yourself."

Mrs. Qian quickly replied, "Okay, okay, I'll eat it. You can pick up whatever you like. Don't be polite."

Wen Yan was moved. He had been in the entertainment industry for many years. Everyone was smiling on the surface, but they were all using various tricks behind the scenes. He never dared to believe in the sincerity of others.

This time, the couple he met for the first time showed him such simple kindness. He could feel the couple's sincerity towards him, and silently sighed in his heart that he was really lucky.

Because today is the first day, the program team has no other arrangements. They just asked everyone to pack their things and gather at the village entrance at 6 pm to formally introduce themselves to the guests and announce tomorrow's tasks.

When Wen Yan arrived, there were already two people waiting there. One was Bai Yihe, who had recently become popular for her online drama, and the other was the popular young actress Xu Anle.

The two people are of similar age, and I don’t know if they knew each other before or just quickly became partners after coming to this show. They seemed to be having a very happy chat.

Seeing Wen Yan coming over, the two of them greeted him together: "Teacher Wen."

Wen Yan smiled at them and said, "You guys seem to be chatting happily. Were you friends before?"

The two little girls looked at each other.

Wen Yan smiled again: "It's okay, it doesn't matter, I just asked casually, you don't have to answer if it's inconvenient."

It was Xu Anle who spoke up: "We were classmates before, and we just happened to be free recently, so we thought of coming together."

Wen Yan hummed, and then said: "It's good. I heard that this program is a bit tiring. The two of us just happen to take care of each other."

The three of them waited for a while, and Qin Yuechuan and Nan Qiao came over together. From the situation when they first met, Wen Yan guessed that they must be old friends.

"Teacher Qin, Teacher Nan, you are here." Wen Yan spoke first to greet them.

The two little girls quickly followed suit and greeted: "Teacher Qin, Teacher Nan."

Both of them smiled and nodded. Nan Qiao looked at the time and asked, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Wen Yan smiled and replied, "I just arrived too."

Nan Qiao nodded.

There are two minutes left until six o'clock, and everyone is waiting for Xiao Zhiyuan to come.

Five minutes passed, and there was still no sign of Xiao Zhiyuan at the intersection leading to the village. The director was a little angry.

This person was originally forced in by an investor. He originally disagreed, but the other party offered too much, so he gave in.

Now it seems that Xiao Zhiyuan is a person who will not settle down, and the director feels a little regretful.

But now that things have come to this, he couldn't get angry on the first day. The director picked up the megaphone and said, "We have another guest who may not have packed up yet. We can all get to know each other first. We can work together on the tasks we will be assigned in the next half month."

Everyone chatted with each other for a while, and the director asked someone to urge Xiao Zhiyuan. After a while, the person who was sent came back and whispered something in the director's ear.

Wen Yan thought that maybe Xiao Zhiyuan didn't want to see him, but he didn't care. Even if he ran into him now, who knows who would suffer the loss? Of course, it would be best if he didn't run into him.

Thinking of this, Wen Yan recalled that Shen Qi probably didn't know that Xiao Zhiyuan was here, otherwise he wouldn't have accepted the call. Although the hot searches a while ago have faded, it is still easy for people to associate them if the two of them participated in a program at the same time. So what is going on?

Wen Yan decided to go back and call Shen Qi to ask about the situation. He felt that Xiao Zhiyuan had bad intentions.

In fact, Shen Qi already knew about this at this time. When Zhao Ming saw Xiao Zhiyuan, he felt that the matter was not simple and had already sent a message to Shen Qi.

Shen Qi was also shocked when he saw the news. Xiao Zhiyuan also went to this variety show? Who in this circle didn't know that Wen Yan and Xiao Zhiyuan had a feud, so why did someone arrange the guests like this?

Shen Qi was sure that he had confirmed with the director before accepting this variety show. Xiao Zhiyuan was not on the list of artists at that time, so how did Xiao Zhiyuan get on?

Angry, Shen Qi was very angry. He immediately called the person in charge at that time. The person in charge was also very aggrieved and said that this person was temporarily replaced by the investor, and the artists who were replaced on his side have not yet been negotiated.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Qi was convinced that Xiao Zhiyuan had heard that Wen Yan had accepted the variety show and deliberately went there. But who arranged it? Qi Yu'an?

Impossible! Shen Qi denied it. He also knew Qi Yu'an. He would not do such a thing. Then who is Xiao Zhiyuan's current sponsor? Can he do anything about it?
