"You little rascal, are you kidding us? We knew you were a cunning little devil."
"No, no, brother, you two are my seniors, people I need to learn from."
"Anyway, she's not an idol. Sigh, Sa Sa and I were just being delusional."
"No, no, you two are my idols at work. I always hold myself to the same high standards as my seniors."
Peng Baoxin had an extremely strong will to survive, bowing and scraping to the two photographers, begging them to save his life.
In reality, Hu Yisheng and Li Sa were just teasing the younger generation and didn't care about what had just happened.
Peng Baoxin knew this because he was often teased like this at work. But since everyone was having a good time, he tried his best to play along.
"Alright, alright, enough joking around. Let's observe the environment first."
"Okay, but don't wander around. We'll tour the place when Captain Li comes back in a bit."
So the three grown men carefully put away their cotton-padded clothes and trousers, then sat down on the ground and waited for the owner of the space to return.
Inside the warehouse, Qin Yuewen and Yin Jiaqi took off their down jackets, revealing sweaters underneath, and underneath those sweaters were rather unattractive thermal underwear.
Yin Jiaqi was a little embarrassed because there were two obvious holes in her thermal underwear.
She hadn't expected the room to be so hot; she thought she could conduct the interview wearing just a sweater. Now, she felt embarrassed to go outside.
Qin Yuewen didn't notice the change in the other person's emotions at first. After she finished tidying up inside and out, she turned around and found Yin Jiaqi standing there in a daze.
"What's wrong with you?" Qin Yuewen asked suspiciously.
Yin Jiaqi was almost in tears. She looked at Qin Yuewen and said, "Editor-in-chief, can I wear a sweater for the interview? The clothes I'm wearing underneath aren't very nice, and I'm afraid they'll leave a bad impression on Captain Li."
Qin Yuewen thought it was something serious, but she breathed a sigh of relief. "Well, nobody cares if you're dressed nicely these days. Everyone just wants to stay warm. It's okay. The holes are on your waist and shoulder, about the size of a fingernail. They don't expose any sensitive areas, so it won't bother you."
"But it doesn't look good. I don't have any other clothes. Wouldn't it be embarrassing to wear this during the live stream? Editor-in-Chief Qin, can I wear a short-sleeved shirt instead?"
Qin Yuewen rolled her eyes and said, "Whatever, but I don't think it's necessary. Our capital city isn't much better than other places. Just be your most authentic self in front of the audience. If it really doesn't work, I can ask Captain Li for you?"
Yin Jiaqi nodded gratefully: "Okay, thank you, Sister Yuewen."
"Are you done changing? If you are, let's go out."
"Didn't you say Peng Baoxin and the others were also going to pack up? Why don't we wait a few minutes before going out?"
Qin Yuewen thought for a moment and nodded: "That works too."
Then he looked around. He thought to himself that there was quite a lot of grain in the warehouse.
Yin Jiaqi also said, "I didn't expect the space inside the thatched house to be so big; you can't tell from the outside at all."
She wanted to take a look at the inventory, but Qin Yuewen stopped her: "We are guests, it is not appropriate for us to touch their belongings. Let's just wait here and let Captain Li take us to see them later."
Yin Jiaqi also realized the inappropriateness of her behavior. She blushed and admitted her mistake: "Sister Yuewen, I was just too excited and didn't think about it. I didn't mean to."
Qin Yuewen nodded, not wanting to make things difficult for her. Having known her for many years, she could still understand the girl's thoughts. She was just a somewhat naive and innocent girl.
The two waited for about ten more minutes before emerging from the thatched hut. Yin Jiaqi immediately spotted Peng Baoxin and the others.
The group of men were all wearing drab gray vests and thin trousers. On their feet were inappropriate cotton shoes.
Yin Jiaqi blinked her eyelashes, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the nearly washed-out vests on the others. She thought to herself that at least she wasn't the only one who was embarrassed.
"Where's Captain Li? Isn't he here?" Qin Yuewen asked.
Li Sa shook her head: "They went somewhere else. We're waiting here."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure approaching from a distance, which was none other than Li Sikai, the man they had been talking about.
Knowing that someone would be coming today, Li Sikai wore relatively light clothing and quickly changed behind a tree.
But worried that the others would feel uncomfortable, he picked a lot of lychees and loquats in his small basket. He didn't go back to find the others until the basket was almost full.
"Everything's all packed up, come and have some fruit."
Li Sikai glanced at the group, but didn't give them any strange looks at their attire.
The group's eyes lit up as they stared at the fresh and delicious fruit in the basket, their mouths watering suspiciously.
"This...isn't this inappropriate?" Hu Yisheng refused, but his eyes were clearly glued to the basket.
Li Sikai chuckled and stuffed several pieces of fruit into each of their hands: "Eat up, it's alright, I can afford to treat you to some fruit."
Seeing this, the group laughed and began to eat.
At first, they tried to act polite, but once the sweet fruit entered their mouths, they couldn't resist and started wolfing it down.
After they finished eating, Li Sikai led the group on a tour of the space. As they walked, they observed and discussed which places they could take more photos of and which areas needed more detailed explanations.
Looking at this land with its magical power, Yin Jiaqi's thoughts flowed effortlessly from her mind, without her having to rack her brains to come up with anything.
Peng Baoxin was the same, but he was a backup, so he could only offer his ideas to Yin Jiaqi.
Qin Yuewen was pleased to see how well the group worked together. She had been worried they might fight amongst themselves over this opportunity to appear on screen.
Thankfully, no.
The group stayed in the space for more than three hours, discussing all aspects before leaving.
As soon as they stepped out of the space, the cold air made them shiver violently.
Qin Yuewen sniffed and said, "Captain Li goes in and out of the space so often, it's not easy for him."
Li Sikai smiled and said, "In this world, there is no such thing as a free lunch."
The group nodded, gaining a deeper understanding of the statement.
After Qin Yuewen left, Li Sikai gave a brief report to Chief Alliance Officer Li. Chief Alliance Officer Li didn't say anything, just told him to take full responsibility.
After careful consideration, Li Sikai felt that the proposed process was satisfactory and left.
Back at work, Yin Jiaqi and her colleagues couldn't contain their excitement and started telling each other about what they had seen and heard that day.
The colleagues were extremely envious. None of them expected that, in addition to Yin Jiaqi and Hu Yisheng, even the backup Group B could enter the space for a visit. This was truly incredible luck.
If I had known, I wouldn't have chosen Peng Baoxin and Li Sa in the first place. Wouldn't it have been better to go myself?
They initially thought Group B was just there to make up the numbers and wouldn't get any screen time, so they gave the opportunity to two young guys. Now it's too late to regret it; they can only blame themselves for not finding out more clearly.
