Chapter 146: Love Variety Show: Saving the Black-Material Movie Emperor 15

~7 min read 1,371 words

Le Gui Lu and Zhou Yan Nan, seeing this, also mustered their strength, imitating the action and threw down the net; although their movements weren't that standard, and even the angle at which they cast the net was a bit crooked, the net they threw almost got tangled in midair.

But after all, it was a narrow success; they managed to throw the net into the spot allotted by the fishermen.

The time spent working always passes quickly.

They arrived at noon 12:00, and the livestream went offline.

Le Gui Lu and Zhou Yan Nan were also getting tired of work; the two of them already had a small bucket of seafood.

"Should that be enough?"

Zhou Yan Nan breathed lightly, crouched down, and counted what was in the bucket.

"Enough for the two of us."

"No…… Jin Chen, you're feeding Senior Song, not feeding pigs—why are you catching so much?"

Le Gui Lu looked at Jin Chen's separate bucket and couldn't figure it out.

"……I'm eating it myself."

Jin Chen choked a little, then replied.

And a certain jumping system in his mind.

【Wow wow wow so many fish! Host, quickly feed me! The main system said, I can eat things if I have a body!】

【You think if this half bucket of fish suddenly disappears, I'll be mistaken for a monster?】

Jin Chen cast another net.

What can be made into delicious food is left for his wife; what is mediocre or unsuitable for human consumption is left for 0731, anyway it won't be poisoned.

The three of them had a simple lunch together with the fishermen on the boat.

In the afternoon they followed them to learn how to handle these ingredients.

Over here the task was in full swing, while the surprise at the villa was being prepared in earnest.

——

Song Pojian sat on the sofa, thinking for a long time.

Compared to Jin Chen's understanding of himself, his understanding of Jin Chen was much less; suddenly having to think of a surprise was really a bit difficult.

More than that, he feared that the surprise he prepared would seem cliché, hackneyed, and Jin Chen wouldn't like it.

"Senior Song, may I interrupt?"

Xu Ling, dressed in a gentle blue dress, walked into the living room with her hands behind her back.

"What's wrong?"

Song Pojian asked.

"Yan Nan's birthday is in these few days; I want to take advantage of today's task to record a birthday greeting video for him, as part of the surprise."

Xu Ling laughed while explaining, "He previously said that in the entertainment industry he walks alone, focused only on singing, and has few friends."

"So today's video I'd like to invite some friends to record."

"Sure."

Song Pojian quickly agreed, "Do you have a prepared script, or should I improvise?"

"Yes, here it is."

Xu Ling handed him a small slip of paper.

Then she readied the DV camera, and after Song Pojian was ready, she gave an OK sign.

"Yan Nan happy birthday……

Song Pojian memorized the lines quickly, and the recording of this video went very smoothly.

"Thank you!"

Xu Ling showed a genuine smile, put the DV camera away, and then asked, "Have you thought about what surprise to prepare for Jin Chen?"

"Not yet."

Song Pojian's smile faded slightly, and he sighed.

"I'm worried that what I prepare, he won't like."

Xu Ling nodded, able to understand, and then said,

"Actually I think the focus of this task isn't how surprising some object is, but the intention; if you prepare it with sincerity, Jin Chen will like it very much."

After hearing this, Song Pojian was momentarily stunned, then suddenly enlightened,

"I understand now, thank you."

He finally raised a smile.

"No need to thank me, we help each other."

Xu Ling pointed upstairs, "I'm going back to my room to continue preparing, Senior Song, keep it up!"

〖Both of them are really thoughtful!! 〗

〖Thanks to Teacher Song for being willing to record a video for our Brother Zhou! 〗

〖Also really thanks Ling Ling for giving our Brother Jian guidance! At the time of Chen and Po's wedding she'll sit at the main table! 〗

〖Really curious what Brother Jian will prepare as a surprise! 〗

The bullet comments were all warm and harmonious.

Song Pojian still decided to proceed with his original idea.

He went back to his room to prepare, then went out to shop a bit; the accompanying cameraman, while Song Pojian was shopping, asked doubtfully.

"Are you also preparing food?"

"Not really, you'll find out later."

Song Pojian smiled and sold a tease.

These past few days, with Jin Chen around, his variety-show sense has improved a lot, and he even jokes with the accompanying cameraman.

Without realizing it, he has become very different from the previous stoic old-cadre movie emperor persona.

Returning from the market, Song Pojian again borrowed tools from local residents and picked two coconuts.

Finally, he went back to his room to change into a clean white shirt, carrying two big baskets full of stuff, and headed toward the beach behind the villa.

〖Oh!! You can tell! Brother Jian, this isn't preparing a picnic! 〗

〖No wonder you bought both fruit and wine! 〗

〖Good heavens, a sunset on the beach, sand and a picnic! So romantic! It'll never go out of style! 〗

Song Pojian placed the things he had prepared on the already-laid picnic blanket.

——

At half past five in the evening, Jin Chen and the three of them returned to the villa.

The villa has only one kitchen, not suitable for all three to work at once, so the Director Team had already prepared the restaurant's back kitchen for them to cook the food.

So each of them came back carrying the dishes they had prepared themselves.

Jin Chen held the insulated lunch box bag in his hand; just as he returned, he saw Song Pojian's slippers placed next to his own.

His wife was not at the villa.

At that moment, Chen Mo, who had come to greet him, saw him and hurriedly said, "Senior Song is waiting for you on the beach behind the villa—hurry up and go!"

If you don't go now, Xu Xin will come to stop you!

Chen Mo indicated with his eyes the unfinished second half of the sentence.

Jin Chen glanced at the approaching female figure, understood Chen Mo's meaning, and turned and left without looking back.

"Jin Chen! Wait a moment—I haven't shown you the surprise I prepared for you yet!"

Xu Xin had just stepped forward when all she saw was Jin Chen's back.

She bit her lip, feeling wronged and angry.

As if Jin Chen had done something to let her down.

Chen Mo was eating the meal prepared by Le Gui Lu, twitching the corner of his mouth.

If it weren't for this person's ambiguous relationship with Yang Yixian, who returned earlier this afternoon, I would have believed her love interest was Jin Chen.

Wen Ci Ye was now in the camera's blind spot beside the second-floor hallway, watching the scene of Xu Xin being left behind by Jin Chen, and frowned displeased.

It seems I trusted the wrong person; this person is useless.

Since I can't control it, I still have to start with Song Pojian for Jin Chen to lose his composure.

He thought he was observing from the shadows, devising strategies.

But every move of his had already fallen completely into the eyes of 0731.

——

Jin Chen had just reached the beach when he saw Song Pojian sitting there listening to music.

He raised his eyebrows mischievously, slowed his steps and breathing, and tiptoed behind Song Pojian.

Suddenly, he covered Song Pojian's eyes from behind with one hand and changed his voice.

"Robbery!"

Song Pojian first jumped in surprise instinctively.

The feeling of being constantly bothered by sasaeng fans cannot be faked.

But before he could react, he smelled the familiar agarwood.

He curled his lip and brushed off Jin Chen's hand.

"You scared me."

His tone actually sounded a bit coquettish.

"Let me see what surprise Brother Pojian has prepared."

Jin Chen sat beside him, his eyes glancing at the covered picnic blanket.
