Chapter 29 Chapter 029 “Since it’s an apology…
Yan Nanxing's words were very direct, and Nan Fei obviously didn't expect to be understood in this way.
But at first glance, it seems to be the case.
There was a strange silence between the two of them for a while. Yan Nanxing felt helpless for once and sighed.
Shao Peisi was right about one thing. Can you expect Nan Fei, a blockhead, to figure it out?
"So, now that you've figured it out and come back to me, what are you going to do?"
Yan Nanxing raised her head and gestured to him, "I filmed the whole process of switching rooms with Chen Yuzhe this afternoon. It's too late to switch back now."
"That's not what I meant." Nan Fei said this subconsciously. After a pause, she continued, "I know you're not planning on coming this time."
Tonight's live broadcast was like this, and everyone knew about his superficial relationship with Yan Nanxing. If they were to suddenly become intimate again tomorrow, they would only be labeled as hypocritical businessmen.
"Not necessarily." Unexpectedly, just as Nan Fei gradually lowered her eyes, Yan Nanxing gave such an answer.
He was a little stunned, and looked up to meet the other person's meaningful smile.
"Since it's an apology, let me see your sincerity."
Yan Nanxing didn't say much, just threw down these words and walked towards the bedroom opposite.
When he reached the door, he turned around again and saw Nan Fei still standing there with a silly look on his face. He couldn't help but chuckle.
"It's getting late. Go to bed. You have a full day of work to do tomorrow."
Yes, there is still a full day of filming tomorrow, and Yan Nanxing hasn’t said clearly which team he will join. How can this not be an opportunity?
After realizing this, Nan Fei's emotions, which had been suppressed all day, relaxed a little.
"Good night, Yan Nanxing."
The quiet voice was like a whisper, and the only response was the closed wooden door.
The next day, the guests woke up early and went downstairs to gather. Learning from the previous experience, everyone was ready to go in advance to avoid the director taking advantage of the opportunity to withhold funds.
What was even more obvious was that everyone spontaneously dispersed into pairs, forming clear groups. Even the newcomer Shao Peisi inexplicably blended into the atmosphere and began to be wary of others.
Yan Nanxing was not like them. He finished his breakfast leisurely and sat down on the sofa leisurely.
Tao Xi dog slyly moved to his side and gently tugged at his sleeve: "Hey, Nanxing, while the director hasn't arrived yet, let's be honest, do you really not have any intention of joining a team?"
The director hasn't arrived yet, but the shots of the public places in the cottage were started early in the morning.
Yan Nanxing didn't point this out, and simply smiled and continued her conversation: "To be honest, I told you yesterday that I'm very happy with any of you."
"But the director of today's event hasn't announced it yet. How do you know the groups will be the same as last week?"
Although the others were doing their own things, they were actually eavesdropping on what was happening on Yan Nanxing's side. As soon as these words came out, everyone could no longer hold back and surrounded him.
"Quick! Tell me your opinion!" Tao Xi had made two correct guesses, and now he had great trust in Yan Nanxing. "Where did you come up with this conclusion?"
Looking at the expectant gazes around him, Yan Nanxing sighed, "It's a simple truth. Think about what you all said during last night's live broadcast. You clearly explained the groupings. Although it brought a certain amount of attention to the live broadcast, do the production team really want the audience to know the recorded content that has not yet been aired?"
Of course not.
Especially since they already knew that Director Xu was someone who loved to create contrasts using the Spring and Autumn style of writing.
With this hint, the guests suddenly understood.
"That means we have to disrupt the order." Tang Jingyun thought for a moment, then quickly denied it, "No, it's not that simple. There won't be any surprises if we just transfer."
"Indeed, this isn't a variety show that prioritizes challenging competitions. While the chemistry between the guests is fun, it's not a long-term solution." Cen Jiashu offered a rare opinion, hitting the nail on the head. "Now I remember, didn't Nanxing ask the production team to change their minds several times last week? We could start with that."
Yes! As long as you understand the purpose of the program team, you can handle it with ease!
"Brother Cen is right, that's the truth."
Yan Nanxing cast an admiring glance at him, and Cen Jiashu smiled politely in return, "It was you who set the precedent last time that made me think of this."
"So, Nanxing, if possible, I really hope to be on the same team with you."
This gesture of goodwill came suddenly, and Tao Xi suddenly accused: "Teacher Cen! Why even you!"
Cen Jiashu smiled helplessly: "Well, Nanxing's charm is indeed very strong. I am impressed by him and have nothing to say."
Everyone was amused by seeing Tao Xi jumping up and down in disbelief.
"But speaking of which, I think Nanxing and Teacher Cen are a good team. They're both very reliable, and it's so reassuring to be with them." Shen Yuzhe interrupted, "So, Sister Tang, you should form a new team with someone as reliable as me, so that I, who don't have much of an opinion, can join them."
“Shen Yuzhe, are you going to rebel?”
"Xiao Shen, Xiao Shen, your map of Yan State is so short!"
This one sentence shocked the two women. Faced with their "former" teammates who had become active, they found it difficult to accept the current situation for a while.
Before any speculation could be made, the two teams began to fall apart.
If the commotion continued, Shao Peisi would laugh so hard that he would be unable to straighten his back.
"Oh, now I kind of regret asking Nan Fei to be my partner. You two are so funny." After laughing, Shao Peisi raised his arm and wanted to poke Nan Fei beside him, but the other party dodged a step and he failed.
He snorted and chuckled, then turned and saw Nan Fei move towards Yan Nanxing. Although he didn't move any more, people's subconscious behavior could not be hidden.
Wow, it seems that this wood is not completely heartless?
Shao Peisi walked between the two of them with great interest, but he didn't say anything. He just watched everyone having fun. The group of people laughed and waited for the filming crew to arrive on time.
"Good morning."
Director Xu was in high spirits, as he was delighted by the good news. It seemed that both the premiere and the live broadcast had been very successful. Before he could say much, someone from Xiaozhu spoke up for him: "Director Xu, let's put the good news aside for now. You're ten minutes late, so let's get to the point."
"Otherwise, it will be like last time, and we will have time deducted. Where can we complain?"
This little joke made everyone present burst into laughter. Director Xu glanced over and saw that it was Yan Nanxing. His tone became more tolerant: "Don't worry, don't worry. This mission spans two days. You don't need these ten or twenty minutes."
As soon as they heard the task, the guests were all attracted to it.
Director Xu didn't keep the audience in suspense and got straight to the point: "Last week we enjoyed the scenery around the cottage. This week, we need everyone to gain a deeper understanding of the local customs."
"Wow, I climbed trees and worked in the fields last week, and you still don't understand it well enough." Shao Peisi was deeply impressed by last night's program. He didn't know whether it was the camera or the post-production, but the guests' working process was as if they were experiencing it firsthand. If that was just average... how could he go deeper?
"This is what I want to say. Although you have participated in the basic labor process of rural life, you have only participated in one link and cannot be said to understand it." Director Xu paused, and the staff brought up a familiar box with the program team's logo on it, which was exactly the same as the one used for the task drawing in the last episode.
"This is the task you will complete in the next two days. This time, we will choose a task first and then divide the team, so that the members can choose."
"Are you so humane today?" Tao Xi looked cautious and didn't really believe that Director Xu would behave like a human being.
Director Xu said kindly, "Believe it or not, you have no chance of resistance."
...The tasks are all prepared by the program team. Is there any difference between saying this and not saying it?
After the preparations were complete, Director Xu called Tang Jingyun and Shao Peisi over. "You two will be the team leaders. Come and draw the mission cards. Nan Fei will be on the same team as Shao Peisi. The remaining members will be chosen by the two captains separately."
Tang Jingyun and Shao Peisi followed the conversation and came forward. Tao Xi was already cheering them on from the back: "Sister Tang! Choose me and Nanxing! Let those two strong-willed men be independent and reliable!"
Tang Jingyun smiled and was about to agree when she heard Director Xu coldly announce, "Yan Nanxing is the referee and cannot be selected to avoid a disparity in human resources between the two teams."
Tang Jingyun: ...
Shao Peisi:?
Yan Nanxing is the referee.
After hearing this, the stunned guests said: ...Say that again?
Since no one is happy with Yan Nanxing no matter who he's in a group with, why not just make everyone unhappy?
Yan Nanxing was also slightly stunned, then he understood what Director Xu meant and couldn't help laughing.
But then, Director Xu stopped talking and just signaled the two guests to draw the lottery.
The two of them each picked up a task card from among the many, and after flipping them open together, they looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Tang Jingyun’s task card read: Sell 100 kilograms of fruits and vegetables within two days.
Shao Peisi's task card was: sell 100 kilograms of livestock, meat and poultry within two days.
No wonder last week’s work was just one part, and this week’s work was more in-depth. It turned out that they were asked to experience the farmers’ market.
"All resources for sale are provided by nearby farmers. One hundred kilograms is the minimum requirement. Teams that complete the sales will receive 500 kilograms of construction funding per person. The sales process must be formal and legal. Facial recognition is prohibited, but other methods are not prohibited."
This is up to the guests to figure out on their own.
However, Shao Peisi noticed an imbalance between the two groups and questioned: "One group sells fruits and vegetables, and the other sells poultry. The level of difficulty seems quite different, doesn't it?"
No matter how you look at it, vegetables are easier to sell. They may not be eaten on the same day they are bought, so customers can buy more and store them in the refrigerator. But it is different for meat. Most of them are bought and cooked on the same day.
Director Xu explained: "The requirement for both groups is 100 kilograms, the same."
Cen Jiashu understood: "Meat is heavier than vegetables."
That's the truth.
The subsequent grouping went quickly. Tang Jingyun chose Tao Xi and Shen Yuzhe, so Cen Jiashu went to Nanfei Shao Peisi's team.
After the groups were formed, Director Xu continued, "Yan Nanxing, as the referee, will soon receive several experience bags sold in the market. You can obtain them from him by completing small tasks. As for how to complete them, it depends on your ability."
"As long as you are resourceful enough, you might even have a chance to bring the referee into your team."
One sentence ignited everyone's fighting spirit.
Only Yan Nanxing, although his expression was calm, was not in a very good mood.
Ha, it seems that others gave him the referee status in order to ensure fairness and topicality, but only Yan Nanxing himself knows that he is being used as a gun.
The reason is simple. He has too much power, and the production team is afraid that he will be able to counter the show again, so they simply include him as an NPC for this show.
The effect is very good. He is now like a carrot dangling in front of all the guests, being fought over by everyone. The director is hoping for this.
But to say I’m unhappy, no.
After hearing Director Xu's encouraging words, Yan Nanxing smiled slightly.
Now that the control is in his hands, it is no longer the director's turn to decide.
