Chapter 38: Chapter 38: The Gu Family and Qi Family Were Isolated

The barrage was laughing out loud, and Sun Chaohua couldn’t help but laugh too.

He not only swallowed back his words of sympathy, but couldn’t help but add a jab, "Don’t doubt it, it’s deliberate."

"..." Han Liheng was even more devastated.

A group of people finished their breakfast amidst laughter.

Meanwhile, over at the Gu Family and Qi Family, they waited for ages but received no breakfast delivery from the production crew, leaving them unfed.

Waking up to an empty stomach was a new experience for them.

Mr. Gu finally couldn’t stand it and asked the host of the house displeased, "Where is the crew? Didn’t they bring us breakfast?"

The villagers of the house were taken aback, "Didn’t they all go to the Qin Family for breakfast early this morning? You didn’t know?"

His words made their faces darken.

Mr. Gu couldn’t lose face; he had just warned the Qin Family yesterday, so he naturally wouldn’t go over for a meal.

So he frowned and asked, "Then what about you? Didn’t you prepare breakfast for us?"

The villager was even more bewildered, his face full of confusion, "Your crew didn’t tell us to prepare, nor did you give us money."

"You!" Mr. Gu was so furious, he gave her a disdainful glance, "Indeed, a country woman only has eyes for money."

The villager was a bit angry when she heard that too, but due to his status, she didn’t argue and just glared at him, snorted, and walked away.

Mr. Gu, who had never been treated like this, was about to erupt, but Gu Yiyi stopped him.

"Dad, let it go, there’s no need to get angry with them." After saying that, she glanced at the Qi Family and sensibly said, "Let’s go check over there, maybe the gathering point is there."

Hearing this, they had no other choice but to go to the Qin Family, holding back their temper.

When they arrived, the group had just finished eating and drinking.

Mr. Gu looked at the table’s leftovers and his face darkened further, frowning as he asked, "You’ve all finished eating?"

Sun’s father, who was closest to him, was taken aback, "You haven’t eaten yet?"

"What do you think?" Mr. Gu, holding back his anger, gave Mrs. Qin, who was cleaning up the table, a cold glare and asked, "Is there any left?"

Mrs. Qin heard this, and her face was not as kind as before, she just said lightly, "None left, we only made so much."

"You!" Mr. Gu, unable to hold back his anger, glared directly at the director’s team, "Everyone ate without notifying us?"

The director’s team was also taken aback, "We thought you already knew?" Didn’t everyone just tacitly come to the Qin Family?

Thinking for a moment, realizing they were still investors, they quickly changed their tone, "It was our oversight, breakfast was supposed to be arranged by the guests themselves. I’ll have someone buy some for you now."

Mr. Gu couldn’t hold back any longer, "This crew is too disorderly! Do you even want to continue this show!"

The director’s team was startled, having never encountered such an issue in years of show-making, quickly sent someone to buy breakfast.

Seeing this, Gu Yiyi, worried about the impact of Mr. Gu’s temper, quickly persuaded, "Okay, Dad, calm down, we’ll wait a bit longer, they must have forgotten because they were too busy. We’ll handle it ourselves in the future."

Mr. Gu was furious, his face as dark as could be.

The viewership in the live streaming room shot up instantly, with intense discussions.

[This crew is really something, not preparing breakfast or informing the guests properly, leaving Yiyi to starve.]

[Speechless...Daring to offend the investors, just stop filming if you don’t want to. What a lousy show.]

[It’s obvious the Gu Family and Qi Family are being isolated, they’re just jealous of the rich.]

[Isn’t it that everyone came on their own initiative? The crew didn’t invite anyone, and the guests prepared breakfast themselves in the last episode too, isn’t it obvious?]

[In short, the Gu Family and Qi Family are just used to being on top, expecting others to feed them, and Qin Dad and Qin Mom didn’t call them this time so they didn’t eat. Why? Qin Dad and Qin Mom aren’t their servants.]

[Is there anyone who remembers how Mrs. Qin’s face changed after returning from delivering vegetables last night? Could it be she got scolded by the Gu Family?]

...

Despite the intense discussion in the barrage, Mr. Gu’s anger was calmed down by Gu Yiyi’s persuasion.

The director’s team sincerely apologized, and finally, the Gu Family and Qi Family let it go.

Qin Dad and Qin Mom were also too lazy to serve them, and after tidying up the table, they were pulled by neighbors for a chat.

At nine-thirty, after the Gu Family and Qi Family finished breakfast, the director came out to announce the task:

"Today’s task is to personally experience the entire process of making candied dates. The local candied dates have a long cultural history and are one of the local specialties.

Now it’s the season for green dates to ripen, we will divide the six families into three groups by drawing lots, starting from picking green dates, to cutting and boiling them, all done by the guests themselves, with local villagers guiding you in between.

Now, please come and draw your teammates for today."

The director’s team added, "It’s said that Qin Dad and Qin Mom were experts in making candied dates back then, whoever draws the same team as them will surely benefit in today’s task."

Hearing this, all the parents’ eyes lit up, each hoping to draw the Qin Family.

[The advantage of Qin Dad and Qin Mom is showing again, hahaha, they’re really all-rounders.]

[Please, I wish for Yiyi to draw the Qin Family, let Yibao and them complete a task for once. I can already guess the last place will have a bad dinner again.]

[Please, the Qin Family must not draw the Gu Family, I don’t want the Qin Family to serve those three giant babies across the table.]

[Giant babies, I’m dying from laughter, so fitting!]

The crew prepared six three-color balls, letting them draw openly in a box, and the final outcome was Jiang Family and Sun Family became a team, Han Family and Gu Family another, and Qin Family with Qi Family.

Jiang Xiangwan and Sun Chaohua, failing to draw the same color ball as Gu Zhi, felt a bit regretful.

This past couple of days, however, the two families got along well, both quite satisfied with the result.

Gu Yiyi was not very happy with the outcome, she wanted to draw the Qin Family or the Qi Family.

Qin Dad and Qin Mom were her biological parents, they wouldn’t bear to let her suffer or make her do too much work.

But unexpectedly, not only didn’t she draw the Qin Family or Qi Family, but Gu Zhi got paired with Qi Yunlin!

She worried, Gu Zhi would seize the chance to flirt with Yun Lin again.

Han Liheng also felt it was a pity, though he got paired with his most admired senior, he wanted to team up with Gu Zhi, somehow feeling Gu Zhi was the only one who could complete the task today.

Plus, from the director’s words, it was obvious the Qin Family was the best choice.

So he looked at Gu Zhi’s hand holding the same color ball as Qi Yunlin’s and immediately said:

"Gu Zhi, swap balls with my senior, so we two can be a team. My senior and Director Qi are the hottest CP, you wouldn’t want to take this chance to stir up CP rumors, would you?"

Hehe, what a clever little guy!

Saying it like this, no one would know he wanted to swap with Director Qi!

As soon as he spoke, everyone’s eyes were on Gu Zhi.

Gu Yiyi looked at her with an exploring gaze.

[Wow, Han Liheng is so forward, let’s see how Gu Zhi responds.]

[Hahaha, Han Liheng, you did it on purpose, don’t think I can’t tell you want to team with Gu Zhi.]

[There’s no way Gu Zhi is willing to swap, she’s just deliberately using this chance to stir CP rumors with Director Qi!]
