Love Variety Show (7)
The sea view villa was not far from the park, and Xi Jiu rushed to the destination with Ruan Qi in his arms in less than two minutes.
Ruan Qi: "The production team really didn't lie to us. It really is a luxurious sea view villa!"
The villa in front of me is of typical European style, with three floors and a large garden outside.
Due to the pleasant climate here, the garden is full of beautiful flowers. Looking around, you will see a sea of flowers, which is breathtakingly beautiful.
Ruan Qi's eyes lit up.
"Jiujiu, this place is really beautiful."
"As long as the baby likes it." Xi Jiu had no interest in flowers or plants, and didn't have high requirements for housing. But as long as Ruan Qi liked it, he was happy.
The two walked to the door of the villa, and the staff who had been waiting there handed them the room key.
"Congratulations to both of you for arriving at the villa within the stipulated time. From now on, this will be your exclusive home."
Ruan Qi took the key and thanked him happily.
“Are there any other activities coming up?”
"Not yet," the staff member replied with a smile. "The next four hours are free time, so you two can get some sleep and rest. By the way, the villa's bedrooms have been cleaned, and the sheets and bedding are all new. But the first floor hasn't been swept yet. I suggest you do some housework and clean up the first floor after your rest."
Ruan Qi: ...
Understood.
Doing housework is also part of the show's play.
"...Okay, we'll do the chores in a bit. Any other requests? What should we do for dinner? Should we eat out?"
Staff: "No, that's not possible. Tonight, all guests need to purchase and prepare the food themselves. This is the money for the two of you tonight's event. Including the two hundred you won from doing push-ups, it's a total of three hundred yuan."
The staff member took out three banknotes from his wallet and handed them to Ruan Qi and Xi Jiu.
"..." Ruan Qi was silent for two seconds, and silently took the few pitiful banknotes.
Staff: "Okay. My mission is complete. You two can move freely from now on. I wish you a happy life in advance."
After the staff member finished speaking, he patted his butt and walked away in a cool manner.
Only Ruan Qi and Xi Jiu were left standing in front of the villa door, holding three banknotes, speechless and choking.
——
Although the money is little, we still have to live.
Ruan Qi handed three hundred yuan to Xi Jiu, opened the villa door with the key, and walked in.
The villa was large, and the living room on the first floor could accommodate more than a dozen people without being crowded. However, as the staff said, this floor had not been cleaned, and the tables and floors were covered in dust.
Although Ruan Qi didn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder, she couldn't stand seeing her own home being so dirty.
She pushed the suitcase aside and turned to Xi Jiu and said, "Jiujiu, should we clean the first floor before we rest?"
Xi Jiu glanced at the living room and shook his head: "No need. The bedroom is clean. Let's sleep for a while. We'll clean it after we wake up."
Ruan Qi thought Xi Jiu was tired and immediately agreed with him.
"Okay, let's go upstairs and sleep first. You just used up so much energy, you must get a good rest. Let's put the suitcase on the first floor first, and we'll move it upstairs when we wake up."
Xi Jiu had no objection and pulled Ruan Qi straight upstairs.
The program crew had already installed cameras in every room of the villa.
Since it wasn't time for the night break yet, the cameras couldn't be turned off. Sleeping in front of so many people was a bit awkward, but Ruan Qi was open-minded, and Xi Jiu didn't care about anyone else, so the two of them didn't feel too uncomfortable.
Xi Jiu took the quilt out of the cabinet and got into bed with Ruan Qi.
He stretched out his arms skillfully, hugged the little girl in his arms, pulled the quilt up, and began to sleep.
As the two fell asleep, the live broadcast room gradually became quiet.
Everyone looked at the young couple lying on the bed hugging each other intimately, and a deep smile appeared on their faces.
[I feel like this scene is so happy and warm, I suddenly feel like crying, what should I do? ]
[This is so sweet! Even their sleep is so sweet! Hurry up and bring me my insulin!]
[Are they going to sleep for a long time? Should I sleep too... Wait a minute! What is Master Xi going to do?]
Although Ruan Qi didn't consume too much physical energy today, she was weak and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The girl's breathing gradually became long and steady. At this moment, Xi Jiu, who was holding her, suddenly opened his eyes.
He stared at Ruan Qi for a while, and when he was sure that she was really asleep, he carefully pulled his arm out from under her neck.
Ruan Qi had never been on guard when she slept beside Xi Jiu. Feeling the man moving, she simply frowned but didn't wake up from her deep sleep.
Xi Jiu got out of bed carefully, pulled the quilt for her, and then left the bedroom quietly.
[Mr. Xi, are you unable to sleep? Why did you suddenly get up?]
[I just used up so much energy, but I'm not sleepy at all. This level of energy is incredible.]
[Wait a minute! Did Xi Jiu go to the bathroom to get a rag?]
Everyone in the live broadcast room saw Xi Jiu leave the bedroom and go into the bathroom on the second floor. A minute later, he came out of the bathroom with a basin and a rag in his hands.
Xi Jiu took the two things and went downstairs, then went to the kitchen to get a basin of water.
What is Mr. Xi going to do? Is he going to cook?
How can I cook in such a mess? Does Xi Jiu want to do housework?
The audience was speculating, but Xi Jiu had already thrown the rag into the basin, wet it, wrung it dry, took it out, and put it on the kitchen counter to start wiping.
Live broadcast room:!!!
Xi Jiu was actually doing housework!
He didn't sleep in the middle of the day and got up just to do housework?!
[What a guy! He put his wife to sleep and then secretly got up to do housework?!]
[Xi Jiu: I will do my housework quietly and surprise everyone.]
[Am I the only one concerned about Xi Jiu actually doing housework? ]
No one expected that the head of a wealthy and prestigious family could actually do housework.
Moreover, it seems that he is quite skilled at it?
Xi Jiu was seen holding a rag and wiping the entire kitchen counter quickly and neatly, and then he began to wipe the furniture and appliances in other rooms.
After wiping down the furniture and appliances, he removed the dust sheet from the sofa and put it in the washing machine. Then he went back into the kitchen, took out the dishes, and washed them all by hand.
After everything was cleaned, he found the mop and started mopping the floor.
Xi Jiu had been working for nearly two hours.
The audience in the live broadcast room looked at him, laughing and joking at first, but later, they were all shocked by his efficiency and enthusiasm in doing housework.
[Mr. Xi actually did housework for two hours without saying a word...]
[He finished such a large area in less than two hours...]
[With this level of proficiency, it's hard to believe he's the head of a wealthy family born with a silver spoon in his mouth...]
[He coaxed Ruan Qi to bed first, then sneaked down to do all the housework. What kind of boyfriend is this?!]
Everyone in the barrage was sighing that Xi Jiu was a good husband who was filial to his parents.
Xi Jiu himself didn't think too much about it. He just thought that if he did more, Ruan Qi would be less tired.
He cleaned the first floor inside and out, and after mopping the last room, all the housework was finally done.
The doorbell of the villa rang at this time.
Ding Dong——!
Xi Jiu paused, put down the mop, walked over and opened the door.
Ji Beibei, standing outside the door, happily carried a basket and said, "Teacher Xiaoqi, let's come—Xi, Xi Xi Xi Ye?!"
After a brief encounter, Ji Beibei, Ge Mei, and Ruan Qi had already formed a preliminary friendship. Ji Beibei liked Ruan Qi very much and enjoyed chatting with her. So after a two-hour break, she brought Si Lin to see Ruan Qi.
Unexpectedly, Ruan Qi didn't see him, but saw Xi Jiu.
Xi Jiu's aura was so strong and cold that even the old couple Ge Mei and Shi Su felt intimidated when facing him, not to mention Ji Beibei, who was only a year older than Ruan Qi.
Ji Beibei met Xi Jiu's cold eyes and was so frightened that her scalp went numb. She stood there stupidly and forgot to even speak.
Seeing that she was silent, Xi Jiu frowned slightly and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"
Ji Beibei suddenly woke up with a start.
"Ah... something's up! I'm looking for Teacher Xiaoqi!"
Ji Beibei was so nervous that she stuttered and almost bit her tongue.
Xi Jiu didn't pay attention to her nervousness and said calmly, "Xiao Qi is still sleeping. You guys come in and wait."
After saying that, he opened the door and turned back to the living room.
Si Lin and Ji Beibei looked at the open door, hesitated for several seconds, and then stepped in hesitantly.
But when they entered the house and saw the bright and clean first floor, their expressions instantly became tense.
"How come it's so clean? Aren't guests supposed to clean it themselves? The house we live in is completely dusty!"
Si Linjibeibei came in third in the push-up competition and was awarded a large two-bedroom, one-living room bungalow. The bungalow was twenty years old, with outdated furniture and fittings, and poor insulation.
But Si Lin and Ji Beibei can tolerate all these. They are both children from ordinary families and don’t have many requirements for living accommodation.
However, there was one thing they really couldn't tolerate, and that was - the house was too dirty!
It's all gray!
On the floor, on the walls, in the sink, on the windows... except for the bedroom, all the other rooms were so dirty that it was unbearable to step in!
When Silin Ji Beibei saw the house for the first time, she broke down and almost cried.
But when they saw Xi Jiu and Ruan Qi's bright and clean villa, the tears that they had held back with great difficulty burst out again.
"Is the program crew discriminating? Why are Teacher Xiaoqi and Mr. Xi's houses so clean? Just because we are third, do we not deserve to have a clean house?" Ji Beibei faced the camera with tears in her eyes and a face full of accusations.
The cameraman who came with them suppressed a smile and said, "Have you ever thought that it's not that the production team is biased, but that Mr. Xi just cleaned the villa?"
Ji Beibei: ???
"That's impossible!" Ji Beibei said in disbelief. "How can such a large villa be cleaned up in two hours?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xi Jiu walked out of the living room with a mop.
Ji Beibei: ...
Ji Beibei opened her eyes wide.
"Master Xi...what are you holding in your hand?"
Xi Jiu glanced at her and said, "Mop."
Ji Beibei: "...What are you doing with the mop?"
"Mop the floor."
Ji Beibei felt like her brain was short-circuiting. She laughed dryly and asked, "Just now the cameraman said that you had cleaned the entire villa. Isn't that true?"
Xi Jiu glanced at her again and did not deny it.
Ji Beibei:!!!
What the cameraman said was true?!
Xi Jiu cleaned such a big villa by himself?!
She and Si Lin spent a long time together and only finished cleaning the living room!
It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.
Ji Beibei was even more devastated.
When Xi Jiu took the mop back to the bathroom, he came out and saw the stimulated young couple sitting listlessly on the sofa.
Xi Jiu glanced at them and wanted to leave them and go back to the bedroom to accompany Ruan Qi.
But out of courtesy, and also because there were cameras around, he didn't want to bring bad things to Ruan Qi, so he walked over to the single sofa in the living room and sat down.
But people sat down, but did not know what to say.
Xi Jiu was too cold, and apart from Ruan Qi, he rarely chatted with his family. Si Lin and Ji Beibei were both afraid of him and didn't dare to chat with him casually.
For a moment, the living room was silent and the atmosphere was extremely awkward.
[Help! My embarrassing self is back! I'm about to dig my toes out of an ocean view apartment!]
[It's been five minutes, and none of the three of us have said a single word... Do you still remember that this is a live broadcast?]
If I hadn't turned the volume up to the maximum, I would have thought it was a pantomime.
[Someone please come and break this suffocating atmosphere, I can’t stand it anymore! ]
Perhaps the audience's voices were too strong, and footsteps were suddenly heard at the stairs on the second floor.
Xi Jiu, who had been sitting in the living room like an old monk, stood up instantly.
Si Lin Ji Beibei was startled by his sudden action. Before she could react to what happened, a girl's soft and confused voice came from the stairs.
"Jiujiu, where are you?"
Ruan Qi, wearing home clothes and white bunny slippers, walked down the stairs in a daze.
[Ahhhh! It's Soft Baby! Soft Baby, just woke up, is so cute!]
【Someone who saves the awkward atmosphere appears! 】
Ruan Qi's appearance was like a shot in the arm, saving the awkward atmosphere in the live broadcast room and the living room.
Xi Jiu walked up the stairs quickly and led her down hand in hand.
"Did the baby get enough sleep?"
"That's enough. I slept well." Ruan Qi rubbed her eyes, yawned, and asked, "Why didn't you sleep? When I woke up, I touched your bed and it was cold."
Xi Jiu hummed, helped her tidy up her hair, and replied in a low voice: "I can't sleep, so I came down to do some housework to pass the time."
When Ruan Qi heard this, her sleepiness suddenly disappeared, and she realized belatedly that the first floor of the villa had been completely renovated.
Her eyes widened in surprise: "You've finished cleaning the entire first floor? Why didn't you wait for me to do it together?"
"It's not much work, I can do it alone. You're not well yet, you need to rest more."
Xi Jiu said so, but Ruan Qi knew that even if she was in good health, he would not let her do housework.
She felt sweet but helpless. "Don't do this next time. I'm not terminally ill, and proper exercise is good for recovery. We have to do housework together in the future."
Xi Jiu didn't say yes or no, but changed the subject and said, "Baby, Si Lin and Ji Beibei are here and are in the living room now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the doorbell of the villa rang again.
