Chapter 23: Asking for help should be done in the same way



All the guests were busy with their own things, so no one could be found on Director Ma's side.

Director Ma was so angry that his liver ached. "Where are they? Where did they go? I don't think I told them I'd give them a day off today, did I?"

"Everyone... everyone has achieved points freedom, so no one comes to do the tasks." The staff who registered the points looked embarrassed.

Each group has hundreds of thousands of points to spend, and Shen Shiyi's group is even more terrifying, with nearly 20 million points.

So how could they possibly continue to complete tasks and earn those few points?

"But this is filming! How can they not obey the arrangements of the program team just because they have points?" Director Ma had a headache.

The investor's casual request caused him great harm!

"But... they were deceived by your words in the beginning, so they were somewhat reluctant to film."

As soon as the staff member said this, Director Ma turned his head and stared at him, "What do you mean by deception? It's just a little exaggerated publicity!"

[I'm dying of laughter, haha. Yeah, that's a bit exaggerated. It's good that they didn't abuse you like that before you started scolding them!]

[Looking at the situation now, is this production going to become like Director Ma begging the guests to film while they're all building houses?]

[Who understands? My family members entered the live broadcast room early in the morning and saw Director Ma's old face. I really want to thank him. Hurry up and pat my sisters and brothers. I don't want to see Director Ma. Thank you.]

Director Ma walked angrily towards the straw house of the guests, but it was empty.

However, construction has already started on the vacant land over there by Shen Shiyi, and no one knows when the foundation was laid!

The workers were working in a dense crowd. Director Ma couldn't see Shen Shiyi at a glance and could only use a large speaker to turn up the volume:

“Shen Shiyi!”

"Hmm?" Shen Shiyi, who was wearing a white safety helmet, responded, stirring cement with something in his hand.

Director Ma: “…” His eyesight was still good, but he really didn’t expect Shen Shiyi to be mixing cement.

"Do you remember what kind of program we are? I have no objection to you wanting to renovate the house and live a good life, but have you forgotten that we still have to film?"

"Remember, just take the picture." Shen Shiyi's eyes were clear, and he continued to work with his head down after replying.

Director Ma forced a smile and said, "The netizens in the live broadcast room are here to see you get along with each other and complete the mission together, not to see you build a house."

“But I have a lot of points, so there is no need to do any tasks.” Shen Shiyi said lightly.

Director Ma: “…” Speechless.

Just when the situation was at a stalemate, the other three groups of guests came back from the back, all with bad looks on their faces.

Zhong Tianba couldn't help but complain, "I've never seen such a difficult old man. No matter how much we tried to persuade him, he wouldn't let us move this straw house even if we paid him."

As they approached, they saw a group of production crew members and asked in confusion, "Director Ma, why are you here?"

"You still have the nerve to ask? Now that you have one or two free points, you're not going to shoot anymore, right?"

"Yes." Xu Miaomiao nodded innocently. Her answer really made Director Ma very angry.

"Director Ma, go have some fun, we still have things to do."

Although Zhong Tianba's words were polite, his tone was full of the intention to drive the person away, and he almost said directly: You're in the way.

Director Ma naturally heard it as well. He was driven away in anger, but it would not end there. He planned to go back and discuss a way to deal with this group of guests. He couldn't let them really stop filming.

After everyone left, Zhong Tianba subconsciously moved closer to Shen Shiyi.

"Sister Shi Yi, what kind of relationship do you have with the village chief that would make him allow you to build a house here?"

Shen Shi pondered for a moment before coming up with a word to express it: "Perhaps it's a friendship of sharing weal and woe?"

"Then, considering your connections, could you please help us talk to the village chief?"

Zhong Tianba shamelessly asked for help, saying that if they couldn't build a room, it would mean that their living environment would always be so poor.

"Okay, I'll go ask later." Shen Shiyi agreed readily.

Jiang Rourou was shocked. How could Shen Shiyi be so generous? He was actually willing to speak up for them.

"Thank you, Sister Shi Yi! You will be my brother from now on. If you need any help, I will definitely help you!" Zhong Tianba was very excited.

He knew that Sister Shi Yi was not as ruthless as they said.

The guests from the other two groups naturally thought that once Shen Shiyi started talking, he would help everyone else to speak, after all, it was something that came to mind.

However, in the afternoon, Shen Shiyi only brought back a contract written in black and white. She walked up to Zhong Tianba and handed it to him, "Here."

"Thank you, Sister Shiyi!" Zhong Tianba was very excited. He could finally get rid of this shabby straw house!

"You're welcome." Shen Shiyi turned around and was about to leave. Su Zhi instantly lost her patience and walked over to block Shen Shiyi.

"Just one? Where's ours?"

"You want it too?" Shen Shiyi raised his eyebrows and looked down at her.

"You...you are talking nonsense, are you doing this on purpose?" Su Zhi instantly felt furious. She had been on so many variety shows, but this was the first time she met someone like Shen Shiyi who didn't understand the ways of the world.

How is this different from bringing lunch to only one person?

"Whether it was intentional or not is important. It's my right to help you with this or not."

Shen Shiyi's expression remained calm and composed, and her words were impeccable.

Su Zhiqi was angry but she couldn't bring herself to ask Shen Shiyi for help. After all, the two of them had a grudge.

"Sister Shi Yi, could you please tell us too?" Gu Qiye saw that something was wrong and spoke in a gentle tone.

"It's too late. The favor we have shared in hardship with the village chief has been used up." Shen Shiyi withdrew his gaze and planned to go back to his house.

"You...you obviously said that on purpose. You just don't want to help us!"

Su Zhi's face was not good. Isn't he just a lousy fortune teller? So what if he has millions of fans? A profession that is not up to standard is still not up to standard!

"I can't help it if you think that way." Shen Shiyi's voice was flat, and he walked without stopping.

【Typical scumbag vocabulary! 】

[You don't have to be so stingy, do you? Is mentioning two more names than you mentioning something going to tire her out or something? What's so arrogant!]

[That's a favor from Shen Shiyi. It's her freedom to mention it or not. Given Su Zhi's attitude, I wouldn't help her either.]

[+1, when asking for help, you should act like you're asking for help. Speaking politely is essential.]

Seeing that his sister was about to walk away, Shen Huai ran after her and stood in front of Shen Shiyi, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

“Shen Shiyi, you’re not going to help me either?”

She was willing to help Jiang Rourou, who had a grudge against her, but she was unwilling to help her own brother?
