Xu Miaomiao chirped in his ear, "Chen Huai, you won't be hot soon. I'll borrow a point from Sister Shi Yi's group so we can go out and buy a fan."
"Let me go, so that Shen Shiyi won't embarrass you. She's a very petty person. After all, I'm her brother, so I should be more easy to talk to."
Shen Huai said this without giving Xu Miaomiao a chance to refuse and walked away.
He had already started to calculate in his mind that he was only borrowing one point, and even if Shen Shiyi wanted to give him more, he wouldn't want it!
When Xu Miaomiao looked up, she saw Shen Huai walking crookedly. She was puzzled. Sister Shi Yi was obviously a nice person, so why would she make things difficult for her?
She simply followed him. With Shen Huai's mouth, he might offend people and not be able to borrow money. Then she would have to come in person.

Straw House by Shen Shiyi
As soon as Shen Huai reached the door, he calmly adjusted his clothes, grabbed two handfuls of hair, and then walked in.
Shen Shiyi was sitting in the yard making a list, and she didn't even raise her head when she heard someone approaching.
Shen Huai's voice soon came to my ears, "Shen Shiyi, lend us one point. Actually, I don't really want your points. If you don't want it, forget it."
Shen Huai walked out after he finished speaking. He was sure that Shen Shiyi would take the initiative to call him back and ask him with concern like an older sister if one point would be enough.
However, just as he was about to step out the door, there was no movement behind him.
He looked back and found that Shen Shiyi didn't even give him a glance, "?"
“Shen Shiyi!”
"Hmm? Anything else?" Shen Shiyi then raised his eyes and looked at her with an indifferent expression.
"You... didn't you hear what I said?" Shen Huai was furious. Seeing her confused look, it was possible that she didn't listen to him seriously at all.
When Shen Huai hesitated whether to repeat it, Shen Shiyi's sweet voice slowly came.
"I heard you, didn't you say you didn't want to?" Shen Shiyi gently turned the pen between his fingertips.
"You!" Shen Huai was even more furious. He didn't believe that Shen Shiyi couldn't hear the hidden meaning in his words! It was clearly intentional!
"You want to borrow it?"
"Who wants your few crappy points!" Shen Huai left decisively this time.
[Chen Shiyi is so unkind, he just borrowed a point and refused to give it to me. He's so stingy. His path has taken a dark turn!]
[Brother Huai is her brother after all, so why is she so heartless? Can't she tell that this is what Brother Huai wants!]
[He wants to borrow points but doesn't speak politely. Who knows if he'll accept it or not? Sister Shi Yi is a master at dealing with people who say one thing and mean another! I really like her personality~~]
[Where did this crazy fan come from? What's with all this nonsense. Huai has always spoken this way. He just has a bit of personality and no ill intentions.]
Xu Miaomiao had been waiting at the door. When she saw Shen Huai leave in a hurry, she knew that he had not borrowed it. She sighed and went there in person.
"Sister Shi Yi, can I borrow a point from you? It's too hot right now, and I can't stand it without a fan."
Shen Shiyi nodded, "Okay."
"Thank you, Sister Shi Yi! I will definitely pay you back as soon as I earn points."
"Well, no rush."
After Xu Miaomiao successfully borrowed points, she went straight to buy two electric fans, one for Shen Huai's room and one for hers. She used the remaining points to buy a straw mat for Shen Huai.
When she returned to the house with the things, Shen Huai saw what she was holding at a glance.
“Are you going to ask Shen Shiyi for help?”
"No, I just asked Sister Shi Yi and she agreed."
"How is it possible, she..." Shen Huai felt even more heartbroken. He borrowed money when others asked, but pretended not to hear when he asked. Does Shen Shiyi still have him as his brother in his eyes?
“Chen Huai, the straw mat and your fan cost sixty-three, remember to turn it to me later.”
Xu Miaomiao smiled and said, this amount of money might be just a small amount for them, but it was indeed a week's food expenses for her, so she had no way to help Shen Huai.
Of course, she wouldn't take advantage of Shen Huai.
"Give me the payment code and I'll transfer it to you."
"Let's add each other as friends. We'll need to work together in the future, so it will be more convenient for us to communicate."
"Then add it."
After the two of them successfully became friends, Shen Huai directly transferred a hundred yuan to her.
Xu Miaomiao stubbornly sent back thirty-seven yuan, and said righteously: "Chen Huai, you don't have to transfer more to me. I am poor, but I don't want to take advantage of you. I hope you won't look down on me and give me charity."
Shen Huai felt a headache after hearing such a long speech, so he simply took back the money and didn't bother to say anything more.
He is still upset.
He couldn't say what exactly was bothering him, but it was definitely related to Shen Shiyi.
That night, except for Shen Shiyi and his group, no one else slept well. There were mosquitoes and it was hot in the summer. The production team was so inhumane that they didn't even want to provide an electric fan.
So when they woke up the next day, the two people in Su Zhi and Jiang Rourou's group not only had extremely dark circles under their eyelids, but also had their faces covered with mosquito bites.
Compared to their miserable state, Shen Shiyi's group looked like they had just stayed in a five-star hotel. They felt refreshed and even wore a new set of clothes!
"Director, this is how you treat your guests! You tricked us into coming here, and this is how you treat us."
Su Zhi had never lost control so much before, and it was the first time he suffered a loss because of words.
If she had known this, there was no way she would have come to such a variety show.
"Isn't this to help everyone learn to be self-reliant? Look, the Shiyi group has already bought air conditioners and beds."
Director Ma looked away guiltily. It wasn't that he was stingy, it was just that every penny had to be spent wisely.
"Hehe..." Su Zhi rolled his eyes. He only knew how to compare with the good ones, why not compare with the bad ones.
"Tell me, how are you going to embarrass us today? If I don't get some points, I'm going to go crazy!"
Zhong Tianba now dislikes the old man in front of him very much and doesn't want to listen to him at all. It would be better if the task is announced quickly so that he can complete it and earn points.
On the first day of arriving at the program crew, he began to miss his beloved soft and cool big bed.
"That's not a stretch at all. Today's mission is quite simple. It's like a modified version of an infinite flow game. The staff will hand out cards to everyone in a moment. Follow the instructions on them to complete your mission."
As soon as Director Ma finished speaking, the staff next to him began to distribute cards to everyone.
After Shen Shiyi earned so many points at once yesterday, Director Ma specially arranged for her an identity card with the most dangerous and difficult task to complete.
We can't let Shen Shiyi's group enjoy the benefits all the time.
"Considering the scarcity of guest members, this game will be assisted by production staff, who will play the roles of NPCs who can provide information but are ruthless."
Director Ma saw that everyone had received the task card and began to explain it bit by bit.
He looked towards Shen Shiyi with a meaningful look in his eyes, “By the way, for the sake of fairness, you are not allowed to use fortune-telling to bribe NPCs.”
