Seeing that the two did not engage in any intimate behavior, the guests all made excuses to leave.
When netizens saw the closeness between the two, Director Li, Director Fu, and the guests all gathered around to watch the drama unfold, and the whole internet immediately started gossiping about it…
[Wow! If I'm not mistaken, Leng Mo was just staring at Mo Yingdi's lips and swallowing hard!]
[I saw it too! Was it because there were no cameras, that the two of them... umm!]
[Hmm! Maybe! Hehe! I want to see what happens next... I'm not sleeping tonight, I'm just waiting to see what happens!]
[I'm not going to sleep either! I'm going to buy some sunflower seeds and a watermelon now, and we'll eat them slowly tonight! Hehe!]
[Count me in! I want to see what happens next...]
...Unbeknownst to Leng Mo and Mo Xuan, because netizens in front of their screens wanted to see what would happen next, they all went out to buy sunflower seeds, peanuts, popcorn, and watermelons, which directly led to the sunflower seeds, peanuts, popcorn, and watermelons being sold out!
Leng Mo and Mo Xuan packed their things and went to the lunch spot prepared by the production team. When they arrived, the other guests were already there and waiting for them. After they sat down, Director Li announced that lunch was served, and everyone started eating. Leng Mo glanced at Director Li a couple of times, thinking to herself, "Is this Li Bai really that nice? Did he really invite us here just to eat? I have a feeling he's up to something!" Seeing Director Li eating heartily, she stopped thinking about it and started eating right away! Everyone had climbed the mountain and packed their luggage, and they were all starving. They were wolfing down their food, completely abandoning their initial elegant demeanor.
Just as the guests were finishing their meal, Li suddenly stood up, a mysterious smile on his face, holding an envelope in his hand.
"Distinguished guests, I'm sure you're all curious about what's in this envelope, aren't you?" Director Li's voice drew everyone's attention.
Leng Mo felt a bad premonition; she had a feeling that what Director Li was about to say wouldn't be anything good.
Sure enough, Director Li then said, "This is the task card for this afternoon!"
Upon hearing the words "task card," the guests all showed pained expressions.
"This mission is simple: team up in pairs, find a special ingredient in the village at the foot of the mountain, and then use it to make a delicious dish. Of course, there's a time limit; if you exceed the time limit or fail to complete the mission, there will be penalties!" Director Li's words revealed a hint of schadenfreude.
Leng Mo and Mo Xuan exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Alright, let's start searching down the mountain now!" Director Li waved his hand, signaling everyone to do as they pleased.
"Looks like this afternoon's going to be fun," Leng Mo muttered to himself. Little did he know that this muttering would be interpreted differently by Director Li. Director Li shouted at Leng Mo, "Leng Mo, do your mission properly! Don't even think about slacking off, or... you won't believe what the punishment will be!"
Upon hearing what Director Li said, Leng Mo waved his hand without turning his head and complained to Mo Xuan beside him, "Mo, do you think Director Li is going through early menopause? He's so long-winded, or is he the reincarnation of Tang Sanzang? It's like he's chanting sutras, and it's making my head spin!"
Hearing Leng Mo's complaints, Mo Xuan, who was usually cold and indifferent, couldn't help but laugh out loud. When he saw Leng Mo staring at him with his big, round eyes, he immediately stopped laughing.
