Chapter 4 If I don’t go to hell, who will?
After Chu Ling finished cooking with peace of mind, he dragged his suitcase upstairs.
The villa has three floors, boys live on the second floor and girls live on the third floor.
When Chu Ling walked to the entrance of the corridor on the third floor, he heard the conversation of several other female guests.
"I can do anything."
"I'm fine with that too."
"You guys should choose first, and leave the rest to me. I'm fine with any room."
Chu Ling stepped onto the last step, and the heavy suitcase followed her footsteps and fell to the floor with a thud, interrupting their conversation.
"What are you discussing?"
Chu Ling asked.
"Ah, you're here."
The second female lead, Gao Yan, looked at her, smiled, and took the initiative to explain, "We just checked. There are only three rooms on the third floor: two single rooms and one double room. So we are still discussing how to divide the rooms."
Chu Ling glanced at the three people and the room behind them, raised his eyebrows slightly, and understood.
Everyone must have preferred a single room, but because of the camera, no one was willing to take the first step. Naturally, you gave way to me and I gave way to you, and no one wanted to be the bad guy, so the stalemate came.
As expected, Gao Yan tilted her head and smiled, then added, "It's just that I usually go to bed late, my living habits aren't very good, and I tend to wake up in the middle of the night to play with my phone. I hope you don't mind this if you're my roommate."
Chu Ling chuckled in his heart.
On the surface, he is saying that he has bad living habits, but in fact he is asking for a single room.
The third female member, Ye Weiyang, also smiled and said, "I do sleep late, too. After all, I work a lot of overtime. Even though I came here, I guess I can't avoid working. I hope I don't cause any trouble to you."
The original heroine Wen Shu was silent for a moment, then said, "I don't mind...anything is fine."
The barrage of comments didn't notice anything at all, they were just moved by their style of being humble towards each other.
【The girls are all doing well. 】
【They are all good babies who care about others! 】
The system fanned the flames for Chu Ling: "Great opportunity, go for it! Just take the initiative to propose to the original heroine and keep provoking her to increase her hatred."
——This is also the plot direction of the original work.
Afterwards, the heroine will continue to have friction and conflicts with the cannon fodder female supporting role, which will arouse the anger of the entire network.
"I'm sorry."
Chu Ling rested one hand on the handle of the suitcase and said lazily, "I have a very poor sleep quality and am a light sleeper. I'm not used to sleeping next to someone. I have a lot of luggage and don't like to organize things, so I need a private space."
She picked the one facing south with the best light, then said, "Since everyone is OK with it, I'll choose it first. Thank you."
Three people: “……???”
The system was also confused: "?"
Chu Ling said matter-of-factly, "They're just afraid of being scolded first. Now I'm taking on the villain role, isn't that good? What kind of hell is this? If I don't go to hell, who will?"
She raised the corner of her mouth playfully, "Besides, there should be a lot of people scolding me now, right?"
The system took a look at the barrage.
As expected, the comments were filled with insults such as "playing big with small cards" and "female celebrities bullying ordinary people".
But amidst the scolding, someone softly said, "But they've been discussing this for so long and still haven't come to a decision. They might as well just decide by playing rock-paper-scissors."
[+1, I even feel like everyone is waiting for someone to choose a double room first so they can get a single room.]
But someone quickly responded with a retort: [Chu Ling's online army bought it so quickly? And now they're trying to clean it for her? Rude, that's rude.]
The system remained silent.
Don’t say that the water army is whitewashing.
If she could choose, she might even take the initiative to lead the rhythm and find someone to scold her.
The room Chu Ling chose was very spacious, bigger than she had imagined, and had good lighting.
She settled in comfortably and then checked the cameras in the room.
There are two cameras with different angles in the room. The cameras are currently turned off, and guests can choose whether to turn them on or off.
Chu Ling couldn't help but curl his lips.
I didn’t realize it before, but now I realize that this is indeed a world of fiction.
Otherwise, why would the audience be so idle?
Chu Ling didn't turn on the camera for the time being. He stretched lazily, then opened his suitcase, hummed a song, and began to pack his luggage in a very good mood.
…
Three hours later.
Qin Shuo finally prepared dinner.
He took off his apron, sent a message to the eight-person group chat they had created, and then took the dishes out.
Soon, a group of people came downstairs in a mighty procession. Seeing the table full of delicious food, they couldn't help but give collective praise.
“Wow.”
Gao Yan ran the fastest. Seeing the feast on the table, she immediately opened her eyes and asked, "Did you two make so much?"
Qin Shuo said in a cold and hard voice: "I did it alone."
Gao Yan was stunned: "Hey, today's lottery is not——"
Chu Ling was yawning and slowly came down from upstairs in his slippers.
"oh."
She blinked innocently, "I'm not good at cooking, so I wanted to help Teacher Qin. But Teacher Qin said he could do it alone, so he took the initiative to take care of dinner for tonight."
She clasped her hands together and deliberately raised Qin Shuo to a higher level. "Teacher Qin is so great. Thank you."
Qin Shuo: “…”
There is a feeling of frustration that I have no place to vent my anger.
Lu Shixuan was already dissatisfied with Chu Lingyuan, and subconsciously said, "You are a girl, and you can't cook?"
Chu Ling raised his eyebrows, looked at him, and asked, "Is there any problem?"
In fact, Chu Ling can.
It’s just easier to create a character here who can’t cook.
Before Lu Shixuan came, he heard from the grapevine that the program crew asked Chu Ling to get the script for the sacrifice to heaven. In addition, he was a little unhappy about being criticized by Chu Ling before, so he decided to fight back against her at this time.
"nothing."
He also raised an eyebrow, "It's just a little unexpected. How do you usually live?"
He knew that Chu Ling had a bad reputation, and was prepared to take advantage of the first wave of traffic criticizing Chu Ling.
Unexpectedly, the reaction of the barrage was not what he expected.
[Although, what’s wrong with girls not being able to cook? ]
Chu Ling was being a bit selfish by shifting the blame, but who says girls have to know how to cook… and she was originally planning to help, but it was Qin Shuo who didn't want to cook with anyone else, right? What's with all this yin and yang?
Chu Ling didn't respond, but only asked him: "Can you cook?"
"Of course."
Lu Shixuan sneered, "During my study abroad, I cooked alone."
Chu Ling smiled and said, "Oh, then you are quite virtuous."
It was the first time that someone described Lu Shixuan as "virtuous". He choked for a second, as if his chest was blocked by blood.
"Okay, okay, sit down and get ready to eat."
Ye Weiyang spoke up, breaking the awkward situation, and said with a smile, "Everyone is hungry, don't let Teacher Qin's masterpiece get cold."
Qin Shuo mainly prepared French food tonight.
Salad, fried rice, onion soup, and a main course of beef bourguignon.
It is indeed very rich, and you can tell at a glance that a lot of effort has been put into it.
Chu Ling quietly touched his Chinese stomach and prayed for it inwardly.
"I never thought that one day in my lifetime I would be able to eat a meal cooked by Teacher Qin Shuo himself."
Gao Yan's face was full of happiness. "I'm so honored."
She was the first to pick up her chopsticks. After tasting a piece of beef, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed, "Oh my God, this is too delicious, Teacher Qin, you are simply at the level of a Michelin chef."
“This sauce is amazing.”
The third male lead, writer Lin Zirun, couldn't help but close his eyes and said leisurely, "I feel like my tongue is melting. As the saying goes, this kind of food is only found in heaven, rarely tasted on earth. This time, I can say I've truly understood it."
Lu Shixuan also commented: "It's really good, more flavorful than the one I had at the restaurant on the Seine River in Paris."
Chu Ling: “…”
Qin Shuo is cooking a meal, and you are here singing and dancing to show off your resume.
She also ate a piece and then choked.
You guys are acting.
She coughed several times and couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
The connecting questions are really wrong. You guys are the real actors.
The ingredients Qin Shuo used were indeed top-notch - after all, in order to give the actor a chance to perform, the program crew must have prepared for him in advance.
It’s her first time cooking and she actually challenged herself to make such a difficult dish. I’m sure it will become a hot topic.
Anyway, the audience can't eat it, can't see the problem, and won't scold him.
Although Chu Ling hadn't had much experience with high-end Western food before, she wasn't stupid. This beef stew was clearly undercooked. Not only was the beef lacking flavor, it had a terrible texture and was even tough.
She coughed for a long time. Wen Shu, who was sitting next to her, patted her on the back, handed her a napkin, and asked softly, "Are you okay?"
Qin Shuo originally wanted to take the initiative to pick up a piece for Wen Shu, but seeing this, he had to take it back and asked, "Miss Chu, are you not used to it?"
"Too."
Lu Shixuan glanced at her and said, "This is French food. You probably don't eat it very often, right?"
“I do eat less.”
Chu Ling rubbed his cheeks and said, "I didn't know it was better to prepare a set of dentures before eating French food."
Everyone at the table was stunned.
Qin Shuo frowned and looked at her: "...Is it not to your taste?"
"The meat is too tough."
Chu Ling said bluntly, "It makes my teeth hurt."
【？ 】
[She must have done it on purpose. Why is she the only one at the table who has an opinion? ]
[If you don't like it, don't eat it! Give it to me! I want to eat it! You have no conscience! ! ]
[But to be honest, I watched Qin Shuo cooking just now, and I think there's something wrong.]
This dish requires marinating the meat for at least an hour, and then stewing it for three hours. Qin Shuo only spent less than two hours on the entire process, which is definitely not enough time. He also has to spend time preparing other dishes. I also doubt whether the meat is stewed properly.
[Although it looks delicious...but I feel the actual taste is emmmmm]
[Just now I was about to say that this is really embarrassing, but it tastes better than a Michelin chef. Is that possible?]
[I feel like everyone here seems to be praising Qin Shuo. Is it just my illusion?]
【After all, he has a high status. 】
[If you have the guts, then don't go on a dating show. If you're on a dating show, you're supposed to be equal to everyone else. Otherwise, why would you go on a dating show? Are you trying to be the emperor here?]
Qin Shuo's face looked a little bad.
He picked up a piece himself, took a bite, and his expression did change.
Chu Ling looked at the stiff faces of the people at the table and added politely, "It may be that my wild boar can't eat fine bran. You can eat more if you like."
“It’s really delicious, at least it suits my taste!”
Gao Yan praised it generously, and then said, "It's just that this dish is a bit high in calories. I really can't eat too much."
Ye Weiyang seconded, "I've also been trying to lose weight recently, so I can't eat too much. Otherwise, I could definitely eat a big bowl."
"Let's drink first."
Jiang Yicheng laughed heartily, stood up to get the red wine, and said, "How can we eat a lot from the main course right away? Although this is not a Western restaurant, we still have to pay attention to the gradual progress."
Qin Shuo: “…”
So when dinner was over, the pot of beef had hardly been touched.
Good.
Chu Ling thought.
Although these people are sweet-mouthed, they are actually quite honest physically.
—
As night falls, the program team issues daily routine tasks.
According to the rules, everyone has to send a message to the person they are attracted to that day every night.
The anonymity of text messages increases the fun of guessing.
Chu Ling asked: "If I don't have any ideas, can I not post it?"
This was of course met with a helpless denial from the staff: "No."
All right.
Chu Ling was not familiar with the other guests, and after thinking for a long time, he could only edit a message for Qin Shuo.
The other side.
Qin Shuo had just returned from the program crew's interview room and had chosen his date for tomorrow.
This date was initiated by the boys' group. He was the first one to choose, and naturally chose Wen Shu without a doubt.
So, the text message he sent to Wen Shu was also——
【See you tomorrow. 】
He was anxiously waiting for the text message from Wen Shu.
He was the only person Wen Shu knew here, and she hadn't met any other male guests today. He wanted to see who else she would send it to.
After a while, the phone vibrated.
Qin Shuo's heart skipped a beat, and then he opened it nervously and expectantly.
Anonymous text messages:

【Keep doing better next time.】
Qin Shuo: “…”
Who posted this? Are you sick?
