You were asked to be on a dating variety show, but all the guests failed?
Chapter 208 Fishing?
Chapter 208 Fishing?
After returning to the shelter, the atmosphere among the guests became visibly more harmonious.
One of the main reasons why the atmosphere eased was, of course, that the two troublemakers, Lu Siyuan and Shu Yi, were taken away to the medical vehicle, and the only one left with them was Zhao Mingtao. Although he had a bad temper, at least he was much smarter than those two and knew clearly why he was on the show. It was impossible for him to cause any trouble under such circumstances.
In addition, Xu Qing’an, the silly son of a landlord, kept pestering others with questions, hoping to get some different parenting perspectives from the female guests, and the atmosphere became lively.
The beds had already been prepared in the shelter during the day, so there was no need to rush now.
Everyone brought a lot of clothes when they set out. In the hot summer, they naturally didn’t have thick clothes, but fortunately there were many public figures among the guests, so they still had to pay attention to their image. Even amateurs like Xu Qing’an and Lu Xiaoli, knowing that they were going to be on the show, would dress up carefully and bring a lot of clothes, accessories and skin care products.
Little by little, they add up to a lot. Even if they are all summer clothes, they still feel quite heavy when piled together.
Didn’t you see that when they entered the shelter, Xu Qing’an and Han Fei were exhausted after moving all those huge suitcases?
Due to the limited area of the cave and the fact that clothes had to be spread out together to be thick enough and not hurt people, everyone was simply divided into two areas for men and women, with a simple fire pit in the middle for warmth, and they slept in a large bunk bed.
Han Fei sat by the fire and added firewood to it. After all, there was an open fire and so many people were sleeping together. Someone had to keep watch at night, otherwise it would be hard to react if something unexpected happened. The PDs had been filming behind them all day, so it was impossible for them to stay up all night to help the guests keep watch, right? That was too outrageous.
“Han Fei, you stay for the first half of the night, and I’ll stay for the second half.”
Xu Qing’an finally finished his parenting advice plan and came over to him and muttered.
Han Fei glanced at him:
“You? Forget it. You’re the one who’s done the most exercise today, and you’re injured. You should take a good rest tonight to recharge your batteries. It would be better if someone else could take over from me.”
What he said makes sense.
Not only does it make sense, but the medical team also reminded Xu Qing’an when they examined him just now that he must rest well and not do strenuous exercise recently. If he has any hidden injuries, it would be a disaster.
Xu Qingan also remembered the medical staff’s instructions and scratched his head:
“Among the male guests, besides the two of us, there are only Lu Siyuan and Zhao Mingtao left. Who else can you choose?”
“It’s not good to ask the female guests to take over the night watch with you, it’s a bit weird, it’s as if there are no men…”
At this moment, someone popped up a head from behind them like a ghost.
“Xu Qing’an, I didn’t realize before, you are quite chauvinistic. What’s wrong with a female guest keeping watch at night? She’s just watching the fire, not guarding against bandits. Can’t a female guest do this?”
Such a sad female voice suddenly came out in the middle of the night. The two men were startled and felt a chill on their backs. They turned around in unison.
Then I saw…
Qi Qingyi put her hands in her pockets and stared.
Nie Wenjin leaned against the mountain wall and stared.
Lu Xiaoli is applying a facial mask—stare.
Qi Qingyi was the only one who spoke, but there were six deathly gazes that made people’s backs sweat.
Xu Qingan, who was in the center of the death ray, swallowed his saliva and tried to calm down and argue:
“You guys need to get some beauty sleep. It doesn’t matter to us rough guys, but if you don’t get enough sleep, and you go on the show with dark circles under your eyes the next day, it will really affect your image. Don’t get me wrong, don’t get me wrong.”
There should have been an even more embarrassed Zhao Mingtao here. If he were here, he might have been forced to volunteer to keep watch due to the awkward atmosphere. Unfortunately, he was not here.
Not long after returning to the shelter, Zhao Mingtao simply cleaned up the place where he would sleep and then disappeared. Anyway, he was not in the shelter and nothing would happen if the PD followed him, so no one cared.
Han Fei waved his hand and said:
“What are you arguing about? We’re not staying here for just one night. The recording period is three days in total. There are eight guests. Apart from the two who are going to check, there are exactly six people left. Two people will take turns to watch the first and second half of the night. It’s just right. Everyone will have a share.”
“I’ll be on duty for the first half of the night. Brother Xu, you can take a rest for the night before you start. Do any of the other ladies want to be on duty for the second half of the night? If not, just arrange for Zhao Mingtao to be on duty. Tell him when he comes back.”
“Isn’t this fair and just? If you have any objections, you can raise them now.”
Xu Qing’an, who was racking his brains to make excuses, and Qi Qingyi, who had changed from putting her hands in her pockets to putting her hands on her hips in an attempt to clear the name of women, both fell silent after hearing Han Fei’s arrangement.
It seems… it does make sense?
Then why didn’t he say it earlier!
It made everyone feel very awkward and annoying.
Qi Qingyi snorted coldly:
“I’ll stay for the rest of the night, to prevent anyone from saying that we automatically allocated the items while no one was around…”
Before she finished speaking, Xu Qingan also snorted and sat up straight:
“Wait a minute! Why can the two people who went to the medical team stop keeping watch? They were injured, but their brains were not injured. Just like what Qi Qingyi said just now, they were just watching the fire, not to prevent thieves. Can they not watch the fire just because they were injured?”
Everyone looked at him in surprise.
It’s fine if it’s directed at Lu Siyuan, now almost everyone dislikes this kid Lu Siyuan, and no one speaks up for him. But the injury Shu Yi suffered today looked really scary!
Although Xu Qing’an spoke tough, his body was honest. He had just beaten Lu Siyuan up for Shu Yi, but now he had no intention of showing any mercy to her and asked her to keep watch with him… Could it be that this guy was planning to destroy both Lu Siyuan and Shu Yi, and that both Lu Siyuan and Shu Yi would suffer together?
Han Fei’s face was full of indescribable expression. He swallowed back the words “Are you okay?” and replaced them with a more understandable statement.
“Let these two guard the night. Aren’t you afraid that they will set the shelter on fire and we will all die together?”
Xu Qingan gritted his teeth and sat back down in frustration:
“That makes sense. Let’s arrange it this way. I don’t care.”
After all, he had been with Shu Yi for so long, so he still understood the logic behind her behavior.
No matter what problems she has in her character, Shu Yi must be a person who values her reputation. Even if she really wants to do something, she will never do it in front of the camera.
Even if some negative scandals came out, as long as she handled it properly she would still have a chance to turn things around, but if she broke the law, then her life would be completely ruined.
However, Lu Siyuan is different from her.
From what happened tonight, it can be seen that Lu Siyuan is a person with a weak legal consciousness, or even no respect for the law at all. He felt that Shu Yi had a close interest in him so it was okay to beat her up. The other party didn’t dare to expose her or call the police. So when he was assigned to keep watch at night right after being beaten, was it impossible for him to do something tricky?
Even if there is no big problem, small things can be very disgusting.
Qi Qingyi sighed, pushed Xu Qing’an aside, moved closer to Han Fei, covered their microphones and whispered:
“That’s what I said, but Lu Siyuan is really like a troublemaker. His existence itself is annoying. Now because of his annoyance, he can be allowed to slack off for no reason. I feel uncomfortable.”
“Han Fei, can you think of a way to annoy him?”
Han Fei rolled his eyes and changed his angle to cover his mouth:
“Miss, aren’t you relieved by the two kicks today?” Qi Qingyi shook her head decisively to express her disapproval:
“Of course it’s not enough! He kicked me hard, which was much more serious than the two kicks I gave him. Why?!”
Good man…sister, you are really vindictive.
Han Fei had no choice but to change his plan and leak some information in advance:
“Just let him be comfortable for one night, and wait until tomorrow. There will be someone who can control him tomorrow.”
“And he can’t beat them in a fight, can’t compete with their backers, and even his own backers have turned against them. He is so frustrated that he will die.”
Qi Qingyi’s eyes lit up as she listened while she scratched her head, feeling that something was not right.
After thinking for a long time, she finally found the problem.
“No, you’ve been with us the whole time, how do you know tomorrow’s arrangements? What are we going to do tomorrow? Who’s going to punish him?”
“Director Li revealed the topic to you???”
Han Fei shrugged, looking like he deserved a beating. In short:
“you guess.”
Hard.
Qi Qingyi’s fists were stiff.
Regardless of how Miss Qi jumped up and down, and how she threatened and bribed Han Fei to tell her tomorrow’s arrangements, while Han Fei was teasing her, he did not forget to silently cast a sympathetic look towards Xu Qing’an.
Just like before, Han Fei has a separate invisible headset, but since every guest has a camera on them this time, in order to avoid being noticed by the audience, this headset will only be used by the program crew to communicate with him in a one-way manner.
Even if it is a one-way communication, this thing is rarely used. After all, there is a highly intelligent and antisocial person named Ren Tuo outside, so it is better to be cautious in everything.
It is only used as an exception when setting up a game.
Otherwise, why would Han Fei inexplicably start the topic about Xu Qing’an, Shu Yi and the child on his way back, and even lead the topic to other female guests?
This is a fragmented script designed with great care and attention specifically for Ren Tuo.
The audience who watched the whole process would not think there was anything wrong. It was just that Xu Qing’an, as a father, was a little anxious when encountering problems related to his children and sought the opinions of other guests.
But Ren Tuo——
He only watched the insignificant moment when Xu Qing’an sought out Nie Wenjin, an unmarried, childless female guest, for advice on parenting. It was a short one-minute clip, or even just a few dozen seconds long.
What would he think?
If Xu Qing’an wasn’t stupid, why would he want to ask Nie Wenjin instead of Lu Xiaoli, the single mother? Doesn’t this mean that he wants her to participate in his child’s education plan?
In other words, from Ren Tuo’s perspective, Xu Qing’an wanted Nie Wenjin to be the stepmother of his own child.
It’s worth it!
Of course, there are many uncontrollable situations here. For example, what if Xu Qing’an really only asks Lu Xiaoli, the experienced single mother, and doesn’t even look for Nie Wenjin?
Assuming this situation really happened, Han Fei would also be able to adapt to the situation and take the initiative to suggest to Xu Qing’an to ask other guests for their opinions. Sometimes, bystanders can see more clearly, and one does not necessarily have to have children to give appropriate opinions.
This is a bit contrived, but it works.
Fortunately, Young Master Xu didn’t need them to worry about anything. He happily went to ask everyone, and the script went on very smoothly.
Not long after this little episode, Han Fei heard Kou Hongying’s notification through the headset, saying that she would fly back to Changshan tomorrow, and then let the Gulfstream G700 take Ren Tuo to the island to continue recording the program. She also reminded him to pay more attention to Xu Qing’an’s personal safety in the future, because Ren Tuo obviously unilaterally regarded him as a love rival.
A dangerous person like Ren Tuo may not be able to do anything even in the presence of cameras. Young Master Xu is targeted by him, and the level of danger is second only to Nie Wen Jin, who is temporarily disabled and has difficulty in moving.
Aside.
Xu Qingan, who was still poking at the fire in a sullen mood, always felt a chill on his back, as if someone was staring at him. But every time he turned around and looked around, he didn’t find anyone looking at him, so he rubbed his arms suspiciously.
His heart was pounding… He seemed to have a bad feeling, but he couldn’t tell what it was.
Damn, participating in this show is such a mess, everything feels wrong!
…………
Silent all night.
The guests went to bed early.
There was indeed a lot of trouble last night, but they started eating as soon as it got dark. Even though Lu Siyuan and the others had a lot of trouble, it was only around eight or nine o’clock when they finally finished and went to bed.
Going to bed so early, even if everyone is exhausted and falls asleep as soon as they hit the pillow, they basically sleep for ten to twelve hours and wake up at only eight in the morning.
Han Fei and Qi Qingyi, who were in charge of the night watch, slept less and their sleep time was cut in half, but fortunately the others slept longer and they both slept for five or six hours. They were definitely not full, but they were not so sleepy that they became fools.
It’s just that we were too tired the day before. With the physical condition of modern young people, it would be ok to go to the gym, but if we were really left on the island, we would all be quiet.
Therefore, when the PDs woke up the next day, they were all shocked.
Except for Han Fei, everyone else stared at the camera like a zombie siege:╰_╯
It is a resentful face that shows one is too tired to recover but still has to force himself to face the camera.
“That… that…”
Next to the main control desk, Li Wensheng was also startled when he saw the monitor full of resentful faces. He stuttered for a moment before he recovered and said:
“Good morning, everyone. You must be tired and hungry, right? Unfortunately, you need to bring your own breakfast!”
“Later, the program team will send you all the necessary equipment for fishing. Please go to the beach to find a fishing spot by yourself.”
“You can keep part of the fish you catch, and use the rest to exchange for today’s breakfast and lunch ingredients!”
The guests were silent.
After a while, Han Fei grabbed the camera in the hand of a PD and said viciously:
“Fishing for breakfast?”
“By the time we catch something, it will be lunch time. What are the production crew thinking? If they don’t want to give us anything, just say so. What’s the point of this!”
