After the beds were assigned, everyone gathered in the living room.
Of the six, Huang Zongyi was the oldest and naturally stepped forward.
He placed the task board on the table and said, "We can do the more difficult tasks together, and let the girls do the easier ones. What do you all think?"
Jin Hongxuan smiled gently and said, "Brother Yi, I'll listen to you."
“I’ll listen to you too,” Qiao Zhixi replied.
Jiang Xue: "I'm fine."
Huang Zongyi turned his attention to Luo Shimiao.
Luo Shimiao: "I'm fine with anything."
After receiving a response from Luo Shimiao, she finally looked at the man who had barely spoken a few words since the start of the live stream.
Although he sat in the most inconspicuous position, he was impossible to ignore because he was so dazzling that wherever he sat, that place became the center of attention.
Gu Nian lifted his eyelids and said coldly, "Whatever."
Huang Zongyi choked. The hardest thing in the world is to say "whatever," but he dared not say anything, for he could not afford to offend this person.
"Everyone has been on the road for so long today and hasn't had lunch. Everyone is tired, so let's do some easy tasks first, have a simple lunch, and then do more difficult tasks after we've recovered."
Huang Zongyi pointed to a task on the task board and said, "Tutoring Xiaoming with his homework is a simple task with a high reward. Which of you three girls would like to do it?"
Simple? Luo Shimiao didn't believe the production team would be so kind; it might be a trap.
"Me, me, me!" Qiao Zhixi immediately raised her hand, her eyes filled with determination. How could she possibly let someone else have such a good task?
Seeing that no one had any objections, Huang Zongyi tore off the task sheet and gave it to Qiao Zhixi.
“Weeding is physical work, so Hongxuan and I do the weeding.”
"Jiang Xue, Shi Miao, who's going to accompany Second Uncle to play the erhu?"
Jiang Xue: "Time..."
Before he could finish speaking, Luo Shimiao interrupted him.
"Sister Xue, I don't have the patience to pull, and I don't know how to pull."
"I'm going to catch chickens and pick vegetables."
"Tch," Qiao Zhixi scoffed, "Catching chickens? Don't try to be a hero. No one will help you if you can't finish."
Luo Shimiao rolled her eyes at Qiao Zhixi. This woman was crazy. She didn't remember ever provoking her.
"Just because you don't dare doesn't mean I don't dare. Also, don't speak; I'm a germaphobe." Luo Shimiao tore off the task and walked out without looking back.
The photographer who was following Luo Shimiao immediately caught up with her.
Qiao Zhixi: "You........."
She lowered her head and bit her lip, then looked up again with tears welling in her eyes: "Brother Hongxuan, I was only trying to help her, why did she yell at me?"
He looked as if he had suffered a great injustice.
"Alright, alright, Miaomiao didn't mean it," Jin Hongxuan coaxed, patting Qiao Zhixi's shoulder.
Jiang Xue and Huang Zongyi exchanged a frown.
Gu Nian didn't even glance at them and walked straight out the door.
Live stream chat:
—【My kindness was misunderstood; my Xixi is just too kind to be taken advantage of.】
—【So infuriating! When is Luo Shimiao going to get out of the entertainment industry?】
—【This is truly disgusting】
The live chat was flooded with comments from Qiao Zhixi's fans, all of which were insults directed at Luo Shimiao, some even targeting his family.
Luo Shimiao asked the villagers for Zhang Dajie's address and was about to head there when he heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Gu Nian.
“I’ll go with you.” When Gu Nian faced Luo Shimiao, his coldness and aloofness vanished.
"With me?" Luo Shimiao thought she had misheard.
"Yes," he said sincerely.
"I'm going to catch chickens, do you dare to?"
Gu Nian: "I dare."
The answer was, as always, brief and affirmative.
"Alright, then you can come along."
Luo Shimiao looked at the aloof man walking beside her and imagined that someone as handsome as him would look quite good catching chickens. She was looking forward to it.
Following the villagers' directions, we arrived at Sister Zhang's house.
As soon as I arrived, a simply dressed older woman came out of the house.
Luo Shimiao stepped forward, her large, bright eyes seeming to speak volumes: "Excuse me, are you Sister Zhang?"
Sister Zhang: "Yes, that's me."
"We're here to help you catch chickens," someone said, handing the task sheet to Sister Zhang.
Sister Zhang said with a big smile, "I'm going to the chicken farm anyway, come with me."
On the way to the chicken farm, Sister Zhang chatted enthusiastically with Luo Shimiao.
"You two are the most beautiful baby boy and girl I've ever seen."
"Does Miaomiao have a boyfriend? Do you want me to introduce you to some? I know several nice young men who have stable jobs, own houses and cars, and are honest and hardworking."
Um... she even introduced her boyfriend on the show.
Luo Shimiao smiled and politely declined, "Thank you, Sister Zhang, but I'm still young and don't plan to date right now."
Sister Zhang looked regretful, then asked, "How old is Miaomiao this year?"
She held up two slender, white fingers and shook them: "I'm 20 years old."
Sister Zhang opened her mouth wide in surprise: "Kid, why don't you go to university? You're out working and earning money so early."
"I've been through this myself, so let me tell you, you must study more. Only by studying can you find a way out. Don't end up like me, uneducated, only able to raise chickens at home and earn hard-earned money."
Beep beep beep... Luo Shimiao felt like there was a ring of stars spinning above her head.
Sister Zhang was still relentlessly trying to brainwash Luo Shimiao.
Gu Nian watched the girl nod her little head repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice, and a smile appeared on his lips. She was so cute.
—【Haha, Sister Zhang looks exactly like my mom!】
