Mu Zhaozhao was no longer in pain and was helping to clear the dishes, saying, "He's a doctor with decades of experience, how could he prescribe the wrong medicine?"
Nan Wan cursed inwardly, then looked at Zhuang Xuan, "Brother Zhuang, shall we go to the hospital for a check-up together?"
Zhuang Xuan leaned back in his chair, smacked his lips, and said, "I feel fine now, just a little sleepy."
“It’s normal to feel sleepy after taking medicine. Zhuang-ge, you should get some rest. Pei Kai and I will take care of the rest,” Shi Xi said.
"Thank you for your trouble. I'll go upstairs now." Zhuang Xuan went straight upstairs.
Only Nan Wan is still holding on.
The staff had all packed up the machines and were getting ready to leave work.
The director said to Nan Wan, "If you want to wait for the ambulance, then wait for it yourself. If everything is alright, I'll call them now and have them take the ambulance back."
Nan Wan gritted her teeth, "I'll keep waiting!"
Director: "Okay, we'll start recording at nine tomorrow. Just be back before nine."
Nan Wan asked, "What if I don't come back? I might have to be hospitalized."
"Then we won't film you anymore," the director said decisively.
Nan Wan was stunned.
On the other side, Shi Xi said to Mu Zhaozhao, "You go upstairs and rest. Pei Kai and I will take care of the tidying up."
After taking the medicine, Mu Zhaozhao felt much less pain, but she was still weak.
Upon hearing this, Mu Zhaozhao no longer declined, "Okay, thank you."
"It's nothing." Shi Xi finished tidying up the dishes. "Pei Kai, come and wash the dishes."
Pei Kai: ... speechless.
"You wash the dishes, I'll sweep the floor." Shi Xi felt the division of labor was very fair.
With all the staff gone, Nan Wan, too exhausted to continue acting, huffed, "Shi Xi, did you deliberately try to give us food poisoning?"
Shi Xi swept the floor, speechless, and said, "You ate foods that don't go together, that's why this happened—you were the ones who picked the lotus seeds. If you hadn't picked the lotus seeds, how could you have made lotus seed and peanut soup? How could you do this?"
Shi Xi has no intention of indulging Nan Wan, this pampered young lady.
After they finished tidying up, Shi Xi and Pei Kai went upstairs to rest.
Only Nan Wan remained.
Nan Wan stubbornly waited until the ambulance arrived.
But by then, the medication had taken effect, and she was fine.
Nan Wan insisted on getting herself checked out and left in an ambulance.
These were naturally things the production team didn't air.
In fact, the director had the post-production team cut out the scene from the moment the group started experiencing stomach aches after eating.

Shi Xi returned to her room to rest and received a series of messages.
She opened her phone and found that she had been added to a "dating group".
Inside were several members of a dating reality show, gathered together, chatting amicably.
Shi Xi glanced at the chat and saw that it was mostly Wu Ni and Qingqing Jiu Jie talking, with Chu Yuan occasionally saying a few words.
There was no useful information.
But you could tell they were chatting enthusiastically and even made plans to go out together.
Shi Xi had absolutely no interest in this.
Just as Shi Xi was about to turn off her phone, she received a message from Xie Yunzhou.
Xie Yunzhou: [How was the recording?]
Shi Xi replied: 【It's alright, it's quite fun.】
Xie Yunzhou: [This variety show is missing a regular cast member. If you like it, you can stay here indefinitely.]
Should we stay in this remote, impoverished mountain village where it takes four hours to get to the city?
Shi Xi politely declined Xie Yunzhou's invitation, replying, "No need, I need to go back and study the script."
She'd rather be awkward on a dating reality show than be a regular guest here.
Judging from Pei Kai's job description, she could guess that staying here probably meant tending the fire and washing dishes.
Earning money is not easy, Xixi sighed.
