Chu Yang slurred, "Sister Jiang isn't drunk. She drank rose vinegar. How could she be drunk? You guys are hilarious."
Yu Xiangwan picked up the rose vinegar from the table, poured it into a glass, and tasted it. "It's wine."
This is now confirmed.
Looking at the seemingly drunk but unaware Wolong and Fengchu, Shen Yingyu asked in bewilderment, "How could they not taste that this is rose wine?"
"The liquor made from sorghum has a low alcohol content. Too much rock sugar was added, and the sweetness masked the taste of the liquor. These two people don't usually drink much, so of course they couldn't tell the difference."
Yu Xiangwan said regretfully, "If I had known this would happen, I would have tasted it first before letting them drink it."
The four of them looked very worried, while Chu Yang and Jiang Hexi sat there eating with their heads down, completely unconcerned.
Yan Jie admitted defeat, "As long as they don't act crazy when they're drunk, it doesn't matter if they're a little silly."
Director Chen never expected that this recording of the program would be fraught with trouble.
First, Liu Yuxi pricked her hand with a nail, and then Chu Yang and Jiang Hexi drank the wrong rose wine.
He instructed the assistant director, "Keep a close eye on those two. If anything unexpected happens, cut off the live broadcast immediately. Don't cause any broadcasting accidents."
Assistant Director: "I'll keep an eye on it."
After dinner, the group sat on the sofa.
Director Chen read out the revenue figures according to the program's procedures. Before reporting the expenses, he asked a question:
"Should we calculate each item one by one, or just report the results directly?"
"Report the results directly," Shen Yingyu decided.
Director Chen bluntly stated, "Your current net assets are still: negative 1,037,600. After deducting last month's living expenses, utilities, rent, labor costs, and tractor/planter rental fees, the total profit is—"
He paused deliberately, and as everyone craned their necks to look at him expectantly, he slowly said, "One hundred and seventy-six thousand five hundred and twenty-eight."
Chu Yang suddenly let out a burp, his voice trembling with surprise, and exclaimed, "How much?!"
Jiang Hexi looked at him blankly, not understanding what he meant, and mechanically repeated:
"176,528? Haven't you ever seen money before? Shouting like that, are you asking for a beating?"
Chu Yang stubbornly retorted, "Try hitting me, and I'll call for help right away!"
Yu Xiangwan quickly sat down between the two, awkwardly separating them to prevent them from fighting while drunk.
"Sit properly on the sofa and listen to the director."
The two sat down close to Yu Xiangwan, their eyes fixed on Director Chen.
Director Chen felt intimidated by their stares, and he continued:
"According to the program's new rules, this time's guest star was selected by online voting. Please welcome mainland actor and Golden Dragon Award winner for Best Actor – Xie Wanyi, back on stage!"
Xie Wanyi, dressed casually, walked briskly to the camera and greeted the six guests:
"Long time no see, I'm back. Please take care of me in the future."
At the invitation of Yan Jie and Shen Yingyu, he sat down between the two men.
Taking advantage of her drunkenness, Jiang Hexi kept nudging Yu Xiangwan's arm, making no attempt to hide her teasing:
"Wanwan, Actor Xie is back!"
Yu Xiangwan glared at her, her words carrying a subtle threat: "Everyone is happy that Actor Xie is back. Don't say anything out of line."
"Sister Yu, Actor Xie came back because of you."
Chu Yang said with an honest expression, "If you don't appreciate this kindness, wouldn't you be wasting Xie Yingdi's good intentions?"
Yu Xiangwan was terrified by Chu Yang's words and warned him, "Try talking nonsense again!"
Chu Yang immediately shut his mouth obediently.
Jiang Hexi chimed in again, "Wanwan, you're getting anxious. Getting anxious means you're guilty. Getting anxious means you're admitting it without being asked."
Yu Xiangwan immediately snapped, "Isn't anyone going to do something about them?"
Yan Jie volunteered, "Xi-mei, come here."
Jiang Hexi glanced at Yu Xiangwan sideways, her eyes carrying a hint of bullying. She walked over arrogantly, and the moment she sat down next to Yan Jie, she instantly transformed into a naive and innocent girl.
She looked incredibly well-behaved.
Yu Xiangwan was still not satisfied and said, "Where is Chu Yang? Isn't anyone going to do anything about him?"
No one present was willing to claim him.
The entire living room was completely silent; the awkward atmosphere was so intense that even the staff gathered on the perimeter felt suffocated.
Chu Yang's face was flushed; he didn't understand what was happening and just mumbled incoherently:
"Since no one is going to step forward, I'll stick with Sister Dingyu."
Xie Wanyi got up from the sofa, walked over to Chu Yang, looked up at him and said, "You sit over there."
Under his pressure, Chu Yang mechanically moved aside to make room for him.
Xie Wanyi sat between the two and whispered his instructions:
"Wanwan, he won't bother you anymore."
In front of the live broadcast camera, Yu Xiangwan gritted her teeth and said, "I—thank—you."
The way Wanwan was gritting her teeth made it seem like the person harassing her wasn't Xiao Baiyang, but rather the movie star Xie.
[The double-event CP has received more solid evidence. My filter for Xie Yingdi has shattered. Goodbye, Xie Yingdi. Once I stop being a fan, I will never turn against him again.]
Those who are loved take it all for granted. Look at Xi Mei's arrogant attitude, and then look at Xiao Bai Yang—they're so pitiful!
[Please, Yanxi CP and Shuangwan CP, have some decency! You can show off your love, but don't sacrifice my little white poplar, okay? Single people like me won't eat your dog food.]
[I don't know what the viewers in the live stream are arguing about. Xi Mei and Xiao Bai Yang were drunk, but I just think they're so cute!]
