Chapter 32 I'm willing to be tormented by you...
Chapter 32
Chu Xingli wore the bracelet on her right hand, so Luo Xiaoran wore it on her left.
At first, Chu Xingli didn't pay much attention to the fact that the bracelet had a weak current.
The thought of the two of them shaking hands was already incredibly awkward; how could anything more suffocating possibly happen?
...I never expected it would actually happen.
After being shocked, Chu Xingli quickly withdrew his hand, only to realize that Luo Xiaoran was holding his left hand.
"Is your hand alright?" Chu Xingli quickly looked down at Luo Xiaoran's ring finger, somewhat nervously.
Luo Xiaoran likes to tease him, but that doesn't include actually scaring Chu Xingli.
He didn't want to see Chu Xingli looking frightened.
"It's okay, let me hug you," Luo Xiaoran gently rubbed Chu Xingli's tiger's mouth with his fingertips and comforted her in a gentle voice, "Don't worry."
Chu Xingli breathed a sigh of relief after confirming it with his own eyes, nodded, and calmed down again.
I won't say who got shown up in front of me (*^▽^*)
I have to say, the director has some talent, haha.
It's not easy to get this group of people to sit here obediently, haha.
They're all used to living a comfortable life, so they definitely can't stand staying in an uncomfortable room.
[But Bao Keming's place is a villa, it can't be that bad, right?]
"ah!!!"
Zhu Ji's sharp, crackling voice came from the pager, clearly indicating that he too had let go of Lin Ning's hand out of curiosity.
He loudly questioned the production crew: "Are these bracelets or handcuffs?!"
As a result, Lin Ning was also electrocuted.
But Lin Ning's voice was very soft, a faint and weak "ah".
Immediately following was a series of apologies from Zhu Ji: "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I hurt you."
Lin Ning whispered that she was fine, but she was clearly frightened.
Zhu Ji hugged him and kept apologizing and comforting him.
Ah... Ningning's voice makes my heart itch.
【Zhu Daniu, can you please not be so curious?! You've dragged Ningning into this mess!】
Before the game started, the five groups of guests were each taken to a separate room by the staff.
This was done to avoid comparing the time spent holding hands with other groups, thus securing first place and the right to stay in the luxury room.
However, it also made each group of guests experience the consequences of being too curious.
With Chu Xingli and Zhu Ji leading the way, the guests in each group were itching to give it a try.
While the people in the next room were screaming in pain, they assumed that their wristbands hadn't had time to be charged, and they all let go of their wristbands.
The result was the same as the fate of Chu Xingli and Zhu Ji's group.
They were all shocked and screamed, and dared not let go again.
She endured until she couldn't bear to hold hands with the other person for even a second longer, then she risked being electrocuted repeatedly, forcibly ripped off the bracelet, escaped the room, and admitted defeat to the production team.
Last time, Chu Xingli didn't have time to interfere with Luo Xiaoran's stewed goose progress, so the two of them were assigned the deluxe king room, which was considered the best by ordinary people but the worst by Chu Xingli.
Today, Chu Xingli learned his lesson and listened carefully to what was happening outside, keeping the score in the middle of the pack.
Neither first nor last place, the accommodations are by no means particularly bad.
As expected, Chu Xingli's judgment was correct.
The pair that lasted the longest was Lu Yunxin and Zhou Maidong.
After Lu Yunxin's poisoning incident last week, Zhou Maidong, who takes care of her closely every day, seems completely indifferent to the matter of holding hands.
Lu Yunxin had no firm intention of divorcing him, so the two of them were the group that lasted the longest among the five.
The second place went to Zhu Ji and Lin Ning.
Their original time should have been comparable to that of the first place winner.
However, Lin Ning's face was a little pale, and Zhu Ji was really worried about his health, so he signaled the crew to help them remove the bracelets and help Lin Ning to the sofa to rest.
The truth that "curiosity killed the cat" is becoming increasingly relevant (*￣︶￣)
[Let alone them, if I were wearing it, I wouldn't be able to resist wanting to test whether it had any power.]
[For the latter half of the time, Hug was basically just tilting his head and eavesdropping on what was happening next door, haha, afraid of getting first place.]
[hhh hug: Having learned my lesson from being number one, I won't argue anymore]
Zhao Anyu and Chen Xuanqi originally wanted to take this opportunity to promote the topic of their lingering feelings for each other.
No matter how much they dislike each other in private, they still need to maintain a certain level of public attention.
Otherwise, without impressive data and exposure, who will they look for to be their cash cow?
Unexpectedly, the moment their hands touched, an unbearable sense of disgust arose between them.
The fact that he achieved fourth place was entirely due to the contrast provided by his peers Bao Keming and Qiao Manyun.
In fact, Bao Keming originally wanted to hold out with Qiao Manyun a little longer, but after learning some news yesterday, he felt disgusted no matter how he looked at Qiao Manyun.
I really don't want to touch her.
Qiao Manyun is the same.
Bao Keming's scandalous news was sent to his home like it was free. The letters of information that required money to bribe him came one after another, dazzling the reader and with no two being the same.
So he got the right to live in the worst bedroom in his own villa.
Or you could say... there were two beds in the storage room.
Zhu Ji and Lin Ning's room was a slightly less desirable secondary bedroom than the first-place room; the bed was smaller, the window was smaller, but otherwise there wasn't much difference.
Zhao Anyu and Chen Xuanqi were assigned to the guest room, which was small but had all the necessary amenities.
It's fairly satisfactory.
Lu Yunxin, who came in first place, got the luxurious master bedroom on the second floor.
Just as Chu Xingli was about to express her satisfaction with her double room, her dream was shattered by the sudden appearance of Sister Lu.
"Director, Xing Li and Xiao Ran's room has two beds, right?" Lu Yunxin asked.
Chu Xingli didn't realize Lu Jie's intention and happily replied, "Yes, Lu Jie, we have two single beds."
Luo Xiaoran glanced at him, his eyes filled with undisguised desolation.
Lu Yunxin absolutely cannot allow the couple she ships to face a tragic ending.
"Don't worry, Xiao Ran, Sister Lu is giving the room to you two," Lu Yunxin waved her hand, directly depriving Zhou Maidong and Chu Xingli of their right to resist. "I'm in charge!"
Chu Xingli: "??!"
In a panic, Chu Xingli took a deep breath and hurriedly prepared to politely decline Sister Lu's offer.
That was a room he had worked so hard to get by controlling his score!
However, Lu Yunxin saw through his intention.
"Listen to me! No one can change anything today," Lu Yunxin said, using moral blackmail to forcefully give away the luxury suite she had in her possession. She then told Luo Xiaoran, "Xiaoran, you and Xingli should move in and take good care of your injuries."
Thinking about it, her room with Baobao wasn't too bad. Compared to Sister Lu and Brother Zhou's rooms, the only difference was that one had a single bed and the other had a double bed.
Moreover, he fully understood Sister Lu's good intentions towards him.
So, feigning some reluctance but also appearing very sensible, she nodded before Chu Xingli could refuse repeatedly: "Alright then, thank you, Sister Lu. If there's any cooking involved these next few days, please feel free to ask."
Lu Yunxin's eyes lit up, thinking to herself, "What a great thing!"
She always felt that the two young people who had minor disagreements were simply too proud to talk things out.
If you lock the two of them in a room, even if they are unwilling to speak, they will inevitably develop new feelings in the heat of passion.
As Lu Yunxin silently pondered these things, she completely forgot about her pride and joy in managing her facial expressions.
As a result, the viewers in the live stream all noticed her barely concealed inner thoughts.
[Sister Lu's expression was so real, hahaha, she was practically acting out my face!]
No, we teenagers and twenties don't seem to have the same vitality as Sister Lu, who's in her early forties. Like Sister Lu, we're more likely to faint after a good laugh.
[Thanks for reminding me, tears are falling.]
Sister Lu, you have to sit at the head table on their wedding day.
[Bao Keming squatting under the table, haha]
Chu Xingli was already unhappy.
Even after going upstairs and looking at the room, I still wasn't very happy.
However, Bao Keming maintained his cheeky and confident demeanor, following behind each group of guests who came to view the rooms, introducing them to the value of the furnishings, ornaments, and cultural relics in his home.
Unfortunately, after he saw Chu Xingli and Luo Xiaoran enter the master bedroom, he immediately abandoned Zhao Anyu and Chen Xuanqi, who were praising the north bedroom.
She jogged to Chu Xingli's door, ready to introduce him to everyone.
That way, Chu Xingli would respect him more.
Unexpectedly, they overheard Chu Xingli and Luo Xiaoran's conversation.
"Hugs. This window is a bit small. Don't you feel like the sunlight can't get in and it's too cramped?"
"Oh well, it's only two days. I'll just hang in there and make do."
Bao Keming: "..."
Bao Keming's pride was shattered, and he stared blankly at Chu Xingli's back.
Chu Xingli heard a noise behind her, turned around, and almost bumped into Bao Keming, who was staring at her with his mouth agape in surprise.
He was startled and frowned as he asked Bao Keming, "Your mouth is open so wide, are you waiting for me to give you a nucleic acid test?"
Bao Keming: "..."
[Hahaha, that hug is so funny!]
[I was just about to brag, but I ended up walking right into a trap, haha]
[Hug: I'm already annoyed.]
[Bao Keming: I will leave from the second floor; I will not take the stairs or the elevator.]
Chu Xingli reluctantly pushed the two people's suitcases into the luxurious master bedroom.
Bao Keming had the entire house thoroughly cleaned beforehand, seemingly determined to save face in front of netizens and viewers.
Because Luo Xiaoran's hand was injured, Chu Xingli firmly ordered him not to do anything and to call on him to do anything that needed to be done.
Don't be careless just because the injury to your finger isn't very serious.
Luo Xiaoran smiled and agreed. After entering the house, he sat on the sofa and watched Chu Xingli quickly open their suitcases and busily unpack them.
Autumn is dry.
As soon as Luo Xiaoran held Chu Xingli's hand, he could clearly feel a small barb on the right side of Chu Xingli's left middle finger.
Chu Xingli has always been carefree. If she finds a hangnail in the way, she will tear it off as usual, which will cause skin damage.
That stinging pain was something Chu Xingli had disliked since childhood, but he never learned his lesson. Luo Xiaoran could only watch over him and apply hand cream every year when the seasons changed.
Chu Xingli had her back to Luo Xiaoran and was completely unaware of the conspiracy being plotted behind her.
Suddenly he heard Luo Xiaoran speaking to him.
"Hugs, what should I do?" Luo Xiaoran immediately adopted the solution he had come up with, and with a certain degree of confidence, put down the hand cream he had just squeezed out and asked Chu Xingli, "I accidentally squeezed out too much hand cream, do you want to apply some?"
Chu Xingli dislikes sticky or greasy things.
Therefore, it's highly unlikely they will agree.
Luo Xiaoran had already anticipated his answer.
"I don't like it, you can apply it yourself."
Chu Xingli was engrossed in her work and had no idea how much Luo Xiaoran had "accidentally" squeezed onto his hand.
Without turning his head, he said, "If you leave it on the back of your hand for a while, it will be absorbed."
[Hugs, you really acted like a husband comforting his wife today, hahaha]
[This is a tonic! This brand... even my face cream isn't this expensive! Please, Ranzi, if you don't want it anymore, just throw it on my face!]
Don't believe his scaremonger; he's already got his sights set on Hug's arms. Ranzi won't leave empty-handed (doge)
[Hug: I'm busy, don't bother me]
As expected, after hearing Chu Xingli's answer, Luo Xiaoran quickly made a strategic adjustment.
"Oh, well then, what a pity," Luo Xiaoran said, feigning regret. "It's such a waste."
Chu Xingli heard his words and hurriedly turned around to look.
Only then did they realize that Luo Xiaoran had squeezed out such a large lump, and they were extremely surprised.
"My God, so many?"
Chu Xingli is rich but not stupid; she wouldn't just stand by and watch something of value go to waste.
Just as Luo Xiaoran was moving at ten slow motions per second and making a move to wipe off the excess hand cream with a tissue, Chu Xingli spoke up in time to stop him.
"Alright, alright, don't waste it, just rub it on my hand."
So be it, it's not bad except for being sticky.
Luo Xiaoran showed no outward change, obediently extending his hand with the back of his hand facing Chu Xingli, allowing him to rub off as much hand cream as he wanted.
Despite her disgust at the stickiness, Chu Xingli gritted her teeth and rubbed some of the stickiness off Luo Xiaoran's hand.
He then quickly spread the cream evenly, took out his vibrating phone from his pocket, and replied to the message.
Completely unaware that Luo Xiaoran beside him had already entered the next stage of psychological warfare.
After replying to the email, Chu Xingli noticed out of the corner of her eye that Luo Xiaoran was still sitting next to her, not moving at all.
I couldn't help but turn to look at him with some curiosity.
The hand cream on Luo Xiaoran's hand remained untouched.
"What's wrong with you?" Chu Xingli asked, puzzled.
"It's nothing, my finger hurts a little," Luo Xiaoran said, using his best trick to make his expression and eyes look particularly pitiful, yet also so sensible and sincere that it was heartbreaking. "I want to wait a while before applying it."
[She's starting to seduce people again (enduring it)]
Luo Xiaoran, you are truly talented.
Chu Xingli couldn't stand such words.
As soon as Luo Xiaoran finished speaking, he slapped his thigh in guilt, regretting that he hadn't thought of Luo Xiaoran's mobility issues sooner.
"Hey, don't move, let me help you apply it," Chu Xingli held his forearm, gently rubbed the hand cream evenly with her palm, and applied it all over Luo Xiaoran's hand. She apologized, "You could have just asked me to help you apply it. Why did you just sit there stiffly by yourself?"
"I don't want to make things difficult for you." Luo Xiaoran let him hold her hand.
Starting from the back of the hand and knuckles, avoiding any wounds, carefully apply the product to every part of the remaining fingertips and sides.
In this way, some of the hand cream that Chu Xingli hadn't fully covered the skin due to her hasty application was absorbed during the process of applying it to Luo Xiaoran.
"Nonsense," Chu Xingli's straight-man brain hadn't caught on at all, and he still thought Luo Xiaoran was genuinely afraid of causing him trouble. "I'm willing to be tormented by you."
Luo Xiaoran gave a soft "oh" and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
I'm speechless. Every day, the first thing I see when I open my eyes is this vixen trying to seduce my wife.
Luo Xiaoran, I hate you.
I'll miss it if I don't watch it, but I'll get upset if I do (smile)
Sensible people are already begging Brother Ranzi to start a class.
My innocent and kind wife has been completely fooled by this sly guy o(╥﹏╥)o
[“I Don’t Want to Bother You” and “I’m Willing to Be Bothered by You”: Indeed, two kinds of people can’t sleep in the same bed.]
