Chapter 231 Walking on Thin Ice
Not long after, other guests arrived at the yacht one after another.

Although Zhao Mingtao and Xu Qing’an were the last group to set out, what was counterintuitive was that they were not the last to arrive, but the second to last group.

The last people to arrive were Lu Siyuan and the PD who was following him and looked like he had lost all hope in life.

After everyone boarded the deck, Qi Qingyi accurately found the PD in the same group as Lu Siyuan, and curiously pulled him aside to ask:

“I heard from Director Li and the others that Xu Qing’an and his group were the last to leave. You should have left earlier than them, right? How come you were half a beat slower than them? Did something happen on the way?”

PD wiped his head.

He had a short haircut, so there was no visible mark, but when the sun was shining brightly, a lot of white particles inexplicably appeared on his head.

After wiping his hands, PD looked at the sea in anger:
“Miss Qi, you don’t know, I almost fell into the sea just now!”

“Anyway, we were all caught on camera, so there’s nothing to be afraid of. I’ll just say this—”

“He can’t tell what the buttons on the bracelet are for!”

“We had just started out and were sailing slowly on the sea, and we were doing quite well. But when he saw Mr. Xu’s paddle board was about to overtake us, he got a little anxious and wanted to speed up.”

“You know how to use it, so you should know that there are two key combinations for forward acceleration, right? He pressed the wrong key and pressed it for backward acceleration.”

“Luckily, we were holding onto the handrails so we weren’t thrown off by the inertia of the brakes, but the paddle board was almost flipped over and the seawater splashed all over my face…”

“What’s on my head isn’t dandruff, it’s all dried sea salt!”

As he spoke, he rubbed his head vigorously a few times.

White particles fell down like snow.

Qi Qingyi, Nie Wenjin, Han Fei, and Ren Tuo, who was acting as Nie Wenjin’s spirit, all fell silent when they saw this scene.

Ah this…

They were just wondering what could have caused a professional variety show photographer to become so upset.

But now that I know the truth, it seems understandable that PD would collapse to this extent.

In the silence, someone took the initiative to break the ice.

“I’ve seen a show about this before.”

Han Fei quietly stepped back a few steps, stood behind the others, dodged the flying particles of pure natural sea salt, and said solemnly:
“There was a kid who grew up in the city, but was sent by the production crew to the countryside to suffer. One day he planned to go out to play, but he had no money and no means of transportation. When he first went out, the production crew didn’t take it seriously and just let the cameraman follow him.”

“It was still summer, and the temperature was probably around 37 or 38 degrees. Even an adult who works out regularly wouldn’t be able to walk for long in these conditions, let alone a teenager.”

“But no one expected that the kid walked for seven hours on his own two legs, making several PDs who were taking turns filming him vomit. But he was fine, and even went shopping in the scenic area when he got there.”

“All the photographers in his group were hospitalized for intravenous drips afterwards. None of them could escape.”

Having said that, Han Fei patted the PD’s shoulder with pity and sympathy:

“Your current situation is similar to that of his team’s PD…”

“If I’m assigned to shoot with Lu Siyuan again in the future, I’m sure this kind of thing will happen a lot.”

“If it really doesn’t work, PD teacher, you should go and ask Director Li to arrange a shift for the shooting. After all, you should be prepared for the production crew to mess with you, but it’s hard to predict when the guests will mess with you.”

“And most importantly, the kid I just mentioned actually just wanted to target the production team, to make them realize that they are not easy to deal with, and then let them go home. But what you are facing is not that simple…”

Han Fei was talking about a show he had watched in his previous life.

The kid in that show was making trouble, but he really didn’t have any bad intentions. He just wanted to use this method to get the program crew to let him go home. He was forced to participate by his parents, so it was normal for him to want to leave. Moreover, he was very equal. He was making trouble for the program crew while making trouble for himself, and he didn’t do anything bad on purpose.

But Lu Siyuan is different.

Judging from what Qi Qingyi and PD said, he was just asking for trouble. Both of them were more professional than Lu Siyuan and knew how to operate the paddle board better, but he refused to give anyone the instructions and insisted on operating it himself.

Fortunately, Qi Qingyi was not in the same group with him, forcing the production team to replace someone, otherwise she might have been thrown under the paddle board halfway.

Ren Tuo bullied Shu Yi out of pure evil, with the intention of killing her; and if Lu Siyuan got into trouble, you can’t even say he did it on purpose, because he really didn’t have that intention, he was just stupid and evil.

Working in a team with such people… If it were an ordinary company, at most you would just take the blame and bear the brunt of the consequences, but now everyone is on a deserted island or on the sea. Once something happens, it will be a real big deal, and the risk factor soars.

Han Fei was not trying to exaggerate things, but was giving sincere advice to PD.

Obviously, PD could hear it too.

He scratched his head:
“It shouldn’t be that serious. I wasn’t his PD originally. I was assigned this time.”

“When we get back to the island, I won’t be filming with him alone.”

“If we talk about danger, then his PD is probably more dangerous…”

Han Fei raised his eyebrows:

“Back to the island? Do you have to stay with him during this time at sea?”

PD was horrified on the spot, and a layer of sweat broke out on his back——

I rely on.

Yup!

This time the group was for sea fishing, and the other guests were in groups of two. Why was Lu Siyuan going it alone when it was his turn? This was unreasonable. In order to be fair, Director Li had to arrange someone to be in the same group with him, and now it seemed that he would definitely be grouped with him.

“Sea fishing… shouldn’t be that dangerous, right? We’re all on a yacht, it shouldn’t be that dangerous, right, Mr. Han…”

He stammered, his words full of self-consolation.

Han Fei pressed his shoulder hard and encouraged him affirmatively:
“Who knows? Before you go out to sea, can you imagine that someone can’t even tell the difference between the forward and reverse buttons?”

PD’s hair was originally a buzz cut, but now with a sudden shock, every strand of his hair stood up!

He left a sentence:
“I’ll go discuss this with Director Li right now!”

Then he grabbed a staff member nearby and asked him to lead the way, and ran into the cabin.

Looking at his back, Han Fei sighed:
“It’s hard to make money, but it’s hard to eat shit. It’s not easy for everyone.”

Qi Qingyi rolled her eyes without caring about her image:
“Teaming up with that guy is worse than eating shit!”

Han Fei turned to look at her, his expression indescribable:

“Miss, we are live streaming now, can you please pay attention to your image? You said whatever you want, be careful of being cyberbullied in the future.”

Qi Qingyi laughed, her eyes full of confidence in her wealth, even her laughter was very classic old money style. If you haven’t heard of it, you can search it. It’s different from ordinary people. “Try to cyberbully me, I can’t sue them to death!”

“What’s more, if even someone like Lu Siyuan can still retain so many fans after the show, then it doesn’t matter if they cyberbully me. I can forgive people with stupid brains. They are all fans of Lu Siyuan, so what can I not forgive?”

Ren Tuo, who had been silent all this time and acted as the spirit behind the scenes, nodded in agreement, which was a rare gesture.

He applauded:

“well said!”

“There is nothing unforgivable about people with holes in their brains. There is a saying that goes, don’t argue with idiots. You have a very good attitude!”

Han Fei and Nie Wenjin gasped at the same time.

Amateurs are still braver.

No matter how much they hate others, they are public figures after all and have to be aware of the impact. They gossip about others behind their backs so openly and in front of the camera of the live broadcast room. If it were them, you can guess with your toes what kind of uproar there would be on the Internet.

But that’s what Qi Qingyi and Ren Tuo said.

“What are you looking at me doing?”

Qi Qingyi put his hands in his pockets, raised his chin and pointed into the cabin:

“We’ve been busy for so long, let’s go in and have a drink, let’s go!”

…………

The program crew was very well prepared. There was a wheelchair on the yacht. Although it was an ordinary non-electrically assisted model, it was sufficient. I don’t know whether it was originally on the yacht or brought by the program crew in advance. In any case, Nie Wenjin sat on it after being pulled up.

Han Fei and Qi Qingyi led the way, while Ren Tuo pushed Nie Wenjin behind. When they entered the cabin, they found that Lu Xiaoli was already sitting at the bar.

Lu Xiaoli also changed her clothes. At this moment, there was a colorless and transparent drink in the cup in front of her, and she was sipping it.

“Hey, Sister Xiaoli, what is this you are drinking? Is it wine? I have never seen it before.”

Qi Qingyi walked over curiously and looked at her cup, then asked:
“I didn’t see you when I came over to get some water just now. When did you come out?”

As she spoke, she naturally sat down next to the other person, and moved the chair next to her to make room for Nie Wenjin’s wheelchair.

Lu Xiaoli smiled and pointed at the contents of the cup:

“It’s not alcohol, it’s a regular electrolyte drink. The bartender said there are a lot of drinks on board. Sometimes guests who are more prone to heat stroke or sweat too much need this to replenish electrolytes when they stay on the deck for a long time.”

“Han Fei and I got on the boat together. He just went to do something, so I took the opportunity to take a shower and change clothes. I just came out of the room a few minutes ago.”

“When the crew heard that I was your guest, they were very enthusiastic and even gave me a set of brand new, unopened clothes, saying that they were pajamas they had prepared for you. You are thinner than me, but we are about the same height, so the clothes fit me well. This is really thanks to you!”

She praised him so much that Qi Qingyi felt a little embarrassed.

Miss Qi smiled with her lips pursed, completely different from her arrogant and domineering look just now:

“I’ll find you some other clothes later. Although these clothes are okay to wear, they are really pajamas and home clothes. It’s okay to wear them on the yacht, but they are not suitable for when you get off the boat and return to the island.”

Lu Xiaoli waved her hand:
“Hey, hey, hey, no, no, really no, I’m just wearing it temporarily. My previous clothes were stained by sweat and I’ve already washed them. I heard there’s a dryer, so by the time we’re done and get off the boat, they’ll probably be washed and dried, no need to bother.”

“Speaking of which, nothing happened to you guys just now, right?”

“Ren Tuo and Shu Yi’s paddle board flipped over. We were the closest to them at the time, and Director Li notified us to rush over to rescue them. Han Fei was very tired. I don’t know where he got the energy to play with you on the deck. I was so tired just helping out that I didn’t want to move…”

“But being tired is not a big deal. Ren Tuo and Shu Yi are in a worse situation. One has a broken hand, and the other just got emergency treatment and is still lying in the medical room. Compared to them, we are lucky.”

Qi Qingyi was about to speak when a voice that sounded puzzled and surprised suddenly came from behind:
“What? Shuyi is in the medical room?”

“Just got emergency treatment?”

When they heard the voice, they looked back and found that the person who spoke was Xu Qingan.

Zhao Mingtao and Xu Qing’an were both very tired. In addition to the propeller, they each took a paddle and paddled hard. Their desire to win was overwhelming, so after getting on the yacht, they didn’t have the energy to say a word. They followed everyone silently and no one noticed them entering the cabin.

But at this moment, Xu Qingan’s exclamation was too conspicuous, and everyone looked over.

Especially Han Fei, he looked at Master Xu with a look of disappointment in his eyes——

Damn, I’m so love-brained that even zombies won’t eat me!
Xu Qingan: …

He was silent for a moment, realizing that his voice was indeed a bit embarrassing, so he coughed twice and changed the subject:
“I just feel a little… shocked.”

“With such a broken paddle and such a small propeller horsepower, how could the boat capsize? That shouldn’t happen.”

“Hey, Zhao Mingtao, you have a good relationship with Shu Yi, why don’t you go to the medical room to visit her?”

Zhao Mingtao widened his eyes and pointed his index finger at his face, his eyes full of disbelief:
“Who? Me? I go visit her?”

“If you want to visit, go by yourself. Why are you ordering me around? Are you sick?”

Xu Qing’an looked down at his toes awkwardly, feeling uncomfortable as if maggots had grown all over his body.

He hesitated a few times:

“I’ve been afraid of going to the hospital and getting injections since I was a child. Go ahead. I’m allergic to doctors.”

This time it’s not just Zhao Mingtao.

Everyone else was confused by Xu Qing’an’s excuses.

Forget about being in love… You can even come up with such an excuse? You have lost your dignity, right? ? ?
“You guys aren’t going, right? Then I’ll go.”

Lu Siyuan, who was standing in the corner, suddenly stood up and said with a wooden face:
“Where is the medical room? I’ll go check it out.”

Everyone: Huh? ? ?

It would be more reasonable for anyone to go and see it, even Ren Tuo, than for Lu Siyuan to go.

Didn’t this guy just choke Shu Yi and beat her up? Now Shu Yi fell into the water and woke up after first aid. He went to see if Shu Yi had a chance to die?
There was a moment of suffocating silence and quiet.

Qi Qingyi suddenly smiled.

“Lu Siyuan, don’t you feel uncomfortable staying here, with people constantly reminding you that this is my boat, and feel like you’re sitting on pins and needles, walking on thin ice, so you want to leave, even going to see Shu Yi is better than staying here?”

“Then you are really mistaken.”

“Even if you go to the medical room, Shuyi will tell you the same thing. You’d better just sit here obediently.”
