Chapter 46 "The Crown Prince"



"Ah... come in and sit down first."

Sister Liu walked away after taking the people away. The camera was still filming. Shen Ci smiled at Shao Jinhuan cautiously.

Shao Jinhuan glanced around the room, saw a desk and a small broken stool by the window, and walked over.

He sat down hugging the quilt, but unexpectedly, in front of Shen Ci's horrified eyes, his body suddenly leaned back and fell to the ground with a loud bang.

Shao Jinhuan was suddenly stunned by the fall: "?"

Shen Ci came over to help him up immediately: "You, you, you...why did you fall?"

"……have no idea."

Shao Jinhuan picked up the fallen stool suspiciously and pressed it, only to find that one side had been broken due to age and decay, so people would naturally fall to the ground when they sat on it.

Shen Ci didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and helped the man up: "I'm sorry, I should have been the one who got hurt..."

"What's that sound, Xiaoci?"

The door was pushed open and Wei Shuo walked in. He saw Shen Ci's hand on Shao Jinhuan's arm and his eyes widened.

"Why are you here?!" Wei Shuo was shocked and hurried over to pull Shen Ci.

He moved too hastily, causing Shen Ci to accidentally pull Shao Jinhuan's arm, causing Shao Jinhuan to frown and hiss in pain.

Shen Ci: "He just fell down and might be injured."

Wei Shuo looked at Shao Jinhuan, who was covering his elbow. He lowered his eyes and said calmly, "It's okay."

His body was covered in dust from falling on the ground, and he was still holding the bedding he had brought for Shen Ci. He stood alone in the corner, looking pitiful no matter how you looked at him.

Shen Ci & Wei Shuo: “…” The title of Best Actor is indeed well-deserved!

In this situation, if they don't do something, the show crew who likes to stir up trouble will definitely post this scene captured by the camera on the Internet and flog it...

Shen Ci had no choice but to take the blanket and said, "Shuo Shuo, go ask the program crew for some medicine."

"I have it."

Wei Shuo ran to get it quickly, fearing that Shen Ci and Shao Jinhuan would be left alone, and ran back in just ten seconds.

Seeing Shao Jinhuan sitting on the bed and offering his arm to Shen Ci, Wei Shuo, who had just entered the room, hurriedly stopped him: "I'll do it, I'll do it!"

Shen Ci was pushed aside by Wei Shuo and sat aside, watching Wei Shuo apply medicine to Shao Jinhuan in a very careless manner, with a confused look on his face.

Shao Jinhuan hit his elbow, and apart from the redness and the scraping of the skin, it was not serious.

Wei Shuo gritted his teeth, raised his middle finger to Shao Jinhuan from a place where the camera couldn't see him, and whispered, "That's it? Who did you learn this trick from? You're quite good at it."

"Be gentle." Shao Jinhuan frowned slightly, the wounds from being treated roughly hurting, and he was a little impatient: "If you can't do it, let Xiaoci do it instead."

Wei Shuo sneered: "You are delusional. Don't think I don't know what you want to do."

"What are you talking about?" Shen Ci frowned, trying to get closer to hear more clearly, but the two of them shut up tacitly.

Shen's words are incomprehensible.

Wei Shuo quickly applied the iodine and finished, then patted the quilt on the bed and asked, "What's wrong with this quilt?"

Shao Jinhuan: "I brought it for Shen Ci. He doesn't like beds that are too hard."

Wei Shuo was amused, and looked at Shao Jinhuan provocatively: "It just so happens that you don't like hard beds either, so let's share the happiness. Xiaoci, can I sleep with you tonight?"

Shen Ci suddenly had an idea: "Just take the quilt away! It's too crowded to sleep together."

"no."

Shao Jinhuan and Wei Shuo both firmly refused in unison. Shen Ci was sandwiched between the two, holding his forehead, and was speechless.

The two of them held their own opinions, and in the end, Wei Shuo was left behind, and Wei Shuo also stayed.

Shen Ci helplessly slept on the same small bed with Wei Shuo for a night. Even though they were covered with several layers of thick bedding, he still felt sore in his back and waist when he woke up the next day.

"Damn, my back hurts so much!" Wei Shuo started groaning early in the morning. Shen Ci was woken up by him and got so angry that he almost kicked him off the bed.

The two of them went to wash up, holding their waists in misery. Shen Ci had big dark circles under his eyes, spitting foam and angrily saying, "It's better to sleep on a hardwood board!"

Wei Shuo was filled with regret and swore on the spot that he would never come again that night.

"Killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of our own, we must find another way to piss off this idiot next time..." Wei Shuo muttered softly. Shen Ci didn't hear clearly and was too lazy to ask any more questions.

Today's itinerary was to go to the furniture store in the city to pick out furniture for the B&B, which meant that they had to go back and forth on the mountain road twice.

No one dared to eat in the morning and got on the minibus with the expectation of death.

"I am the first guest of your B&B." Wei Shuo also followed happily. This time he was not chased away by the director. It was estimated that the negotiation had been concluded.

As a result, Wei Shuo was shaken half to death and vomited all over the place in the car. He weakly denounced the program crew: "You run a B&B in such a shabby place?! Who are you kidding!"

The director wiped his sweat and said, "Well, we won't stay here the whole episode! But challenge is more important." And this way there will be a contrast in the topic.

The program team arranged to go to a home furnishing mall that just opened in the county this year. It is very large and the cooperation had been negotiated long ago.

Shen Ci saw the name and logo of Home Furnishing City from a distance and felt it was somewhat familiar. Wei Shuo said, "Oh my!" "This is the home furnishing retail enterprise that Uncle Lu just bought. I saw it on the news. It actually opened in a small county town like this?"

Shen Ci suddenly realized that he had seen it on a document in his uncle's office.

He immediately felt like he was home, and walked briskly into the mall. A manager in a neat suit came over with a smile and said, "Welcome everyone from Perfect Homestay to come and shop with us. Please feel free to choose. Does Master Shen Ci want to have a drink of water and take a rest first?"

Everyone: “???”

The second half of the sentence successfully shocked everyone present. All eyes were immediately cast towards Shen Ci, and Shen Ci's scalp went numb.

This... couldn't be Lu Xiao's special instruction? !

"No, no, I'll go with Da-"

"Are you choosing dishes based on looks?" Jiang Shu giggled, "Although we are not as pretty as Xiaoci, we also want to drink some water and rest, right, sisters?"

The embarrassing thing was that no one dared to answer. The smile on Jiang Shu's face gradually froze.

If we answer her, it will be equivalent to confronting Shen Ci, and no one wants to ruin the relationship with other artists for no reason.

Whether the scene just now was real or scripted, it is very topical, so they are more willing to take this one.

As for Jiang Shu? She was the one who interrupted Shen Ci and tried to provoke him. She also accidentally mocked everyone present by making fun of herself. She should just clean up her mess herself.

"Xiao Ci wants to go shopping with everyone now." Shao Jinhuan looked at the manager and said lightly.

The others all laughed and agreed. Shen Ci walked down the stairs and also laughed: "Yes, yes, we can all rest together then!"

"OK."

The manager said nothing more and left politely.

Entering the mall, Jiang Shu became lively again.

She enthusiastically guided everyone to look at the style they had liked yesterday, and it seemed as if the scene just now had never happened.

We are all adults, and we selectively forgot the moments when Jiang Shu's IQ dropped, and we laughed and joked with her in front of the camera to show harmony and make funny jokes.

Shen Ci wandered around, occasionally responding to other people's inquiries with simple "hmm", "okay", or "sure", looking very Buddhist.

"You're too easy to talk to, aren't you?" A female artist smiled at Shen Ci. Her name was Cheng Yun, a cool sister with a neutral style, and a rising singer.

Another cute female artist named Guo Nuannuan also echoed the words.

Shen Ci chuckled: "I'm not good at judging aesthetics, so I'll rely on you all. I'll just be responsible for doing the rough work and carrying things!"

"With your puny arms and legs, we dare not let you lift them!" The male artist named Zhou Yang laughed and pinched Shen Ci's thin arms in a familiar manner.

Shen Ci cooperated by pretending to be embarrassed and angry, and everyone laughed happily.

Seeing that Shen Ci was attracting attention even though he was doing nothing, Jiang Shu spat in annoyance in his heart, what an annoying fly.

She immediately started to guide everyone to look at the next category of home furnishings, and the crowd and the camera were immediately attracted away.

Jiang Shu hid the pride in his eyes and left with his people.

Humph, she's just an inexperienced newcomer, so the camera is now focused on her.

Shen Ci fell to the end, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone's attention had shifted away.

Shopping was really tiring, so he wanted to find a place to rest.

"Want to sleep?" Brother Zhang asked while standing outside the camera.

Shen Ci nodded, sat down on the sofa next to him and stretched his waist: "I can't stand it anymore. I slept too hard last night."

He usually sleeps a lot, but he slept so poorly last night that it was almost as if he hadn't slept at all. He almost fell asleep in the car just now.

Wei Shuo took off his coat and covered Shen Ci with it, then pinched Shen Ci's face and said, "If you continue to be so lenient with me, I will beat you!"

Shen Ci stuck out his tongue at him playfully: "Lululu~"

He lay back on the sofa with his eyes closed, relaxing. The manager at the end immediately had someone light some calming aromatherapy and told all the staff to avoid disturbing him.

Two hours later...

"Eh? Xiao Ci fell asleep here!" Zhou Yang didn't find Shen Ci. He turned around and looked for a long time, and saw Shen Ci sleeping soundly on the sofa. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He came over to wake up Shen Ci, but someone held his shoulders.

Shao Jinhuan frowned: "Let him sleep."

Zhou Yang: "...Okay, but it hurts a little bit."

Not only Zhou Yang, Cheng Yun and others also came back to look for someone, and were a little dumbfounded to see Shen Ci sleeping.

This child has a really big heart.

It would be fine if he just chose not to participate in the variety show discussions, but now he just left the camera range of the variety show and went to sleep, voluntarily giving up on exposure?

It's simply...

"Ah, she's silly and cute. I want to be her fan."

"No wonder there are so many mommy fans, so innocent haha."

"It's amazing that he can fall asleep in this environment! He really loves sleeping."

“…”

The crowd surrounded Shen Ci as if he were a monkey, and they couldn't help but take out their phones to take pictures. Some even came over to take photos with him as a background sculpture.

Shen Ci was sleeping soundly and had no idea that he had suddenly become an exhibit animal.

The camera also followed the artists back, taking a 360-degree shot of Shen Ci sleeping. Brother Zhang noticed that Shen Ci's sleeping posture was gradually becoming idiotic, so he quickly woke him up.

"How can you just go to sleep like that? This is a shopping mall, do you really treat it like your home?" Jiang Shu whispered to his assistant.

Wei Shuo glanced at her and smiled contemptuously: "Sorry, to him this is really his home."

Shen Ci sat up on the sofa in a daze. The manager immediately handed him mouthwash and a face towel, and Shen Ci used them very naturally.

Jiang Shu: “…”

***

They had lunch at noon and went back for a walk again. They didn't return until the afternoon. Everyone had gotten used to the crazy bumpy ride in the car and could even chat calmly.

The selected furniture will be delivered the next day. Everyone completes their task for the day and disperses on the spot.

When Shen Ci took Wei Shuo to look for a place to eat, they met the director.

The director smiled at him with wrinkles on his face: "That's great, let's go to the first floor of the B&B. The program team will have a Michelin chef to cook for you!"

Wei Shuo was dumbfounded: "It turns out that your program team is not poor, why didn't you invite him before!"

Director: "We are still poor. This chef was donated to us by a kind-hearted person!"

Shen Ci & Wei Shuo: “???”

As soon as he entered Building No. 1, Shen Ci saw familiar faces and several busy chefs... Aren’t they from Lu Xiao’s family?

When a few chefs saw Shen Ci, they greeted him with a smile and called him "Young Master", but when others came over, they ignored him and returned to their arrogant nature.

Zhou Yang: "It is reasonable to suspect that you, Shen Xiaoci, are the crown prince of this small county."

Shen Ci: "...To be honest, I also have doubts."

Shen Ci often eats at Lu Xiao's house. The dishes cooked by the chefs all suit his taste. Shen Ci finally had a normal meal after many days and was so moved that he almost burst into tears at the table.

After eating and drinking, Shen Ci was taken for a walk by Wei Shuo, who also took the big dog of the aunt next door.

"I say, Uncle Lu's hand is too far-reaching, he is afraid that you will be wronged." Wei Shuo took a selfie and said with emotion: "I never thought that such a small place can be seen everywhere with his figure."

Shen Ci thought it was true and felt it necessary to talk to Lu Xiao, so he took out his cell phone and prepared to make a call.

The cameraman happened to be there too, so Shen Ci took the opportunity to make the phone call and explain to the program crew and the audience who was responsible for those incredible things.

...After all, what happened today seemed too magical to many people.

Shen Ci found a familiar number and dialed it, but the phone beeped a few times and then was hung up.

Shen Ci frowned and took down the phone: "Why did my uncle hang up on me?"

He was mumbling to himself when his phone suddenly vibrated, and everything on the screen was -

Lu Xiao invites you to a video call.
