Chapter 417: Chapter 417 The Human Traffickers Have Arrived!

Qiu Wanshuang had just walked over to Ye Zhenzhen with her daughter when Xiaowen and Xiao Yi arrived.

Upon seeing Xiao Yi, Ji Yunyun hurried into Xiao Chen’s tent, shouting, "Brother Xiao Chen, hide quickly, the kidnapper is here!"

Everyone: ...

Xiao Yi frowned and called out to Ji Yunyun, "Hey, Xiao Tuantuan, didn’t you just say you liked Uncle? How did I become a kidnapper again?"

Ji Yunyun poked her head out from the tent and said, "But Brother Xiao Chen’s dad says you’re a kidnapper!"

Xiao Yi raised his hand to rub his forehead and looked at Song Jinze with a look of grievance, calling out, "Brother, look at the mess you’ve made!"

Upon hearing Xiao Yi’s peculiar tone, Song Jinze’s eyebrows nearly knotted together, and he said with extreme distaste, "Get lost!"

Xiao Yi looked at Ye Zhenzhen with a face full of grievance, "Sister-in-law, look at my brother, aren’t you going to do something about him?"

Ye Zhenzhen: ...

What kind of game are these two playing that she couldn’t understand?

Song Jinze patted Zhenzhen, "Ignore him."

Everyone: ...

They wanted to laugh but it was impolite.

But holding back laughter was so hard!

Everyone could still hold back during Ji Yunyun and Xiao Yi’s conversation earlier, but now, Xiao Yi and Song Jinze’s dialogue, along with their tones of voice, were really too much to handle.

Everyone knew that Xiao Yi’s status among actors in the industry wasn’t the highest, but it was top-tier, and no one had ever seen anyone tell Best Actor Xiao to "get lost"!

[What was that tone Xiao Yi used when he spoke to Song Jinze? Is this the Xiao Yi I know?]

[Hahaha! I really died laughing, suddenly I feel like Xiao Yi is so funny when he acts all petty!]

[Wuwu~ Brother is scolded by President Song, so aggrieved, I want to laugh so much, hahaha!]

[Looking at President Song’s attitude towards Xiao Yi now, compared to his behavior towards Zhenzhen earlier, I’m convinced, President Song truly loves Zhenzhen!]

[I’ve figured it out, Xiao Yi’s main role in coming to the children’s variety show is to highlight that President Song’s feelings for Zhenzhen are genuine.]

[I’ve also noticed it, everyone present has their own interests at heart, if anyone else had told Best Actor Xiao to "get lost," you would probably have turned hostile and started exposing them online already, but when it’s President Song, it’s like nothing happened!]

[To the one upfront, how can you say that? President Song is Xiao Yi’s brother, and besides, President Song is handsome and treats Zhenzhen well, why would we expose him?]

Xiaowen: "That’s right, according to the program crew’s usual game rules, everyone’s electronic devices, wallets, and the toys and snacks the children brought are to be confiscated. Xiao Yi and I came to collect these items from everyone."

Having heard from inside the tent, Xiao Chen quickly poked his head out, "Aunt Xiaowen, this time I didn’t bring any toys or snacks, you can take my laptop, mobile phone, and tablet!"

He had seen his dad take out his laptop to work on the boat earlier!

Xiao Yi gave Xiao Chen a thumbs up, "Son, well done!"

Song Jinze raised an eyebrow, "Xiao Chen is my son!"

"I’m Xiao Chen’s elder, so calling him son isn’t wrong either!"

[Ye Zhenzhen: How about you two just live together, and Xiao Chen and I will leave!]

[Hahaha! This is what true brothers are like, if they didn’t get along, they wouldn’t talk like this!]

Xiaowen and Xiao Yi had just collected Ye Zhenzhen and the others’ electronic devices and wallets and were about to collect An Xi’s family’s electronic devices.

Anxi, not wanting to see Gu Liangjun, deliberately took Gu Xiaoran to play on the distant beach, leaving Gu Liangjun in a miserable state.

When Xiaowen and Xiao Yi approached, all they saw was Gu Liangjun drenched in sweat, straining with clenched teeth to tightly pull a corner of the tent.

Upon their arrival, Gu Liangjun managed to squeeze out a few words through his gritted teeth, "Quick, quick help me!"

His short-sleeve shirt was already soaked with sweat, and he felt nothing but soreness all over his body.

He had secured two corners of the tent and was about to work on the third when suddenly, a gust of wind collapsed the tent, which was about to be successfully erected.

Now on his third attempt, the sea breeze had suddenly picked up, preventing him from letting go. He had to grip one corner of the tent firmly to prevent it from being toppled by the wind for the fourth time.

Seeing Xiaowen and Xiao Yi, he felt as if he had seen saviors, only to find that they hardly moved, which made him lose his temper as he shouted impatiently, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up!"

He was really about to give out.

Xiaowen apologetically said, "Sorry, Ranran’s dad, these are tasks that the guests must complete themselves, we can’t help you."

Gu Liangjun’s face showed shock; he couldn’t believe he would receive such a reply when asking for help!

Despair, pure despair!

He had never done such physically demanding work since he was a child. Now with the sun beating down, he truly felt he couldn’t go on any longer, and his words became impolite, "Then what are you here for?"

If you’re not going to help, then why come here at all!

"We’re here to confiscate your electronic devices, wallets, and snacks," Xiaowen said, a light smile on his face as he replied leisurely.

Xiao Yi ignored Xiaowen’s nonchalance and carefully considered the spot Gu Liangjun had chosen. It was windy, the sun was fierce, and there were no benefits for their living situation.

If there was one single advantage, it was that this place was the flattest and closest to where Song Jinze and the others were.

"Why did you choose to set up here?"

Although Xiao Yi already knew why Gu Liangjun had chosen this spot, he still wanted to ask and see how he would answer.

Gu Liangjun, exhausted, let go and the tent collapsed again.

[It’s really hard to describe Gu Liangjun’s poor family. My God!]

[Just watching him set up the tent is exhausting. How can someone be so clumsy?]

[Seriously, can’t Xiaowen and Xiao Yi give him a hand? It’s something they can do easily!]

[Where’s this moral grandstanding coming from? What do you mean ’easily’? It’s been said they can’t help the guests. Others managed by themselves, why can’t Gu Liangjun figure it out on his own?]

[After all is said and done, it’s because he’s clumsy, Anxi and Gu Liangjun really are all thumbs, no faking it!]

"It’s windy, cool, and the ground is level here. It’s such a good spot. If not here, then where else should I set up the tent?" he said, panting heavily from exhaustion.

"Oh~" Xiao Yi looked up at the sun directly overhead, "Once the tent is set up, you can sit inside for a sauna, come out for a sunbath and enjoy the sea breeze. Hmm, looking at it this way, it indeed seems like a good place."

"Of course!" Gu Liangjun nodded proudly.

Xiao Yi’s lips curled slightly, "Alright, then you keep busy. We’ll come back to collect the electronic devices when Anxi returns."

[Does Gu Liangjun really not understand the meaning behind Xiao Yi’s words? Still agrees?]

[Hey, maybe some people just like saunas and sunbathing. Personal preference, no judgment!]
