Chapter 19

"Teacher Chi, the sonic boom, it's a sonic boom! Did you hear it?"

Jin Xia didn't notice Yang Zi's lingering fear; her peach-blossom eyes were full of admiration: "Sister Shishi is so cool and dashing!!"

Chi Ye nodded: "...... Her husband probably won't have a rebellious phase for the rest of his life."

Jin Xia: "Hmm? Why do you say that?"

Chi Ye listened to the whistling sonic booms of her kicks: "If he dares to rebel, with one kick, the husband will directly become an 'old palace' (a pun on eunuch/castration)."

Jin Xia: "..."

"Teacher Chi, Sister Shishi doesn't even have a boyfriend yet."

The Lao Foye had already been conquered by Shi Daifu's set of boxing techniques; she didn't agree with Chi Ye's view, her eyes starry, entering a fantasy moment: "Do you think if I apprentice under Sister Shishi, I could practice to this level?"

Chi Ye glanced at her.

Peach-blossom eyes, long legs, delicate and pampered appearance; she probably hadn't suffered a bit of hardship since she was born.

"What do you want to practice? Women's anti-escape techniques?"

The Lao Foye was slightly angry: "Hey, Teacher Chi, what do you mean by that? Are you looking down on my Wing Chun Jin Wen (Jin Xia's self-styled style)?!"

"...... No, I look forward to seeing that day."

"Right, humph, I guess you have an eye for talent." Jin Xia was easy to fool; hearing this, her satisfied peach-blossom eyes curved into crescents, and she began to hum and imagine the future.

Bang!

By the courtyard, a large tree as thick as two people's waists was kicked until it made a banging sound; dead branches rustled and swayed.

"...... You guys say, if someone offends her in the future, then... what should they do?"

A staff member who had slightly neglected Shi Daifu during the day because of her status swallowed his saliva and asked guiltily.

"What to do?" Chi Ye wrapped his clothes tighter around himself: "Do it in a glorious way."

Everyone: "..."

Whoosh!

The explosive wind of her punches suddenly stopped. Ten-plus meters away, the girl in the white practice suit suddenly turned her head and looked toward them.

Everyone was stunned.

"It's over, we were talking too loudly, we've been discovered!"

"She... she won't 'silence us,' will she?"

"Teacher Yang Zi, run!"

"Running Man Yang Zi."

Yang Zi: "..."

On the other side, Shi Daifu saw the large group of people and was also stunned. After reacting, her goose-egg face turned red instantly; she lowered her head, wanting to turn around and leave quickly, but felt it wasn't quite right.

She could only stand there in a daze for a long time, stuttering: "H-hello, everyone..."

After saying that, without waiting for everyone to react, she turned and left as if fleeing.

Everyone: "..."

After a long time, Jin Xia weakly pointed at the large-capacity water bottle placed under the big tree: "She seems to have left something behind."

Thump, thump, thump.

Shi Daifu ran back hurriedly with her head down again, bent over to quickly pick up the large-capacity water bottle, turned around again, and ran into the courtyard in a panic.

"...... Isn't it a bit bad for us to be like this?" Jin Xia realized.

"It is indeed a bit bad."

"Eh, Teacher Chi, when did you become so understanding?" Jin Xia was surprised.

Chi Ye said regretfully: "We should have gone directly to the bottom of the big tree to watch just now, that way we could have seen it more clearly."

Jin Xia: "..."

"It was indeed good to watch, but I probably won't have a chance to see it again."

Chi Ye sighed.

"...... Alright, let's go back too."

With the protagonist gone, everyone naturally wouldn't continue to freeze in the courtyard.

Of course, blown by the cold wind, most people's sleepiness vanished; at 6:00 AM, it was time for the production team to start working.

After all, it was a 24-hour live stream.

Chi Ye still retained his sleepiness; as a lazy dog, considering there was still warmth in his bed, he returned to his room to take a nap.

When he opened his eyes again, it was already 8:00 AM.

——He was woken up by the clanging sounds next door.

"Who is it, early in the morning, participating in a show is even shortening my lifespan..."

Chi Ye opened his eyes in a daze, put on his clothes simply, and walked out.

"Boss Yang, I've bought it back."

"Are you sure it's real? If this can't withstand it, I'll really end up in the ICU."

At the door next door, the low conversation between Yang Zi and his assistant came.

Chi Ye frowned and glanced over, finding the assistant holding a packing box with "Professional Protective Gear" written on it.

"???"

"Is he really putting himself in the position of a 'thug' to think about the problem?"

Chi Ye was amazed, thinking to himself, was the effect of Miss Shi's boxing practice this morning that good?

Is this the "Wing Chun practiced well, men can't handle it" effect?

Just as he was thinking this, Yang Zi's next sentence completely confused Chi Ye.

"...... That's good, then I can let her hit me with peace of mind."

Chi Ye: "?"

The assistant also felt a bit awkward and asked worriedly: "Do we really have to do this?"

"If I don't do this, how can I leech off Chi Ye's popularity?!"

Yang Zi was displeased, then asked excitedly: "By the way, do you think I'll become popular after being hit a few times by Shi Daifu?"

"Hmm..." The assistant was just about to speak when his eyes suddenly caught sight of Chi Ye not far away.

Yang Zi was stunned, looked back, and his face became even more displeased, secretly cursing his bad luck.

"You'll become popular, you definitely will."

On this side, Chi Ye had already walked over, scanning Yang Zi up and down with a shocked gaze.

"Humph, you say I'll become popular, so I will?"

Yang Zi sneered.

"Of course you will." Chi Ye said seriously: "You'll definitely be able to go to the crematorium."

Yang Zi: "..."

"Teacher Yang Zi, it's okay to 'touch porcelain' (fake an injury for compensation/attention), but we can't be begging for food!"

Yang Zi was furious: "Who are you saying is begging for food?!"

Chi Ye was also dissatisfied: "Just tell me, don't you want to eat the bowl of rice that is 'traffic' (popularity)?"

Yang Zi: "..."

He wanted to refute, but felt that even if he said it, no one would believe him.

Seeing him like this, Chi Ye patted his shoulder and reminded him before leaving: "By the way, forgot to tell you, there are also cameras in the blind spots of the hallway."

Upon hearing this, Yang Zi was first angry, then thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

That part just now was all live-streamed, so wouldn't that... also have traffic?

"Hmm..." Chi Ye was purely playing around: "But at this time, the cameras aren't on."

Yang Zi: Die, you!!!

Report! Someone is playing tricks on an old man here!

Chi Ye no longer paid attention to Yang Zi and strolled to the living room, seeing Shi Daifu alone in the kitchen helping everyone make breakfast.

After experiencing the little episode in the morning, Shi Daifu had been avoiding everyone; clearly, she needed some time to digest this "embarrassment" by herself.

"Teacher Chi, you're up."

A tall figure with graceful posture was strolling in the living room; seeing Chi Ye, her peach-blossom eyes immediately lit up.

"You didn't go back to sleep just now?"

Chi Ye was surprised, noticing Jin Xia's dark circles; although those peach-blossom eyes were still charming and beautiful, the bloodshot veins were still faintly visible.

"No." Jin Xia shook her little head, showing no signs of fatigue, and pulled Chi Ye sneakily: "Not sleeping, not sleeping."

"Teacher Chi... after my two hours of observation, I found a blind spot in the living room, a blind spot that the camera absolutely cannot see!"

Chi Ye was confused: "You didn't go back to sleep just to find a blind spot?"

"Yeah."

Jin Xia paused, looked left and right, and pulled Chi Ye to the "excellent corner" she had spent two hours finding, with her back to the camera: "Since you're here, um... do me a favor."

Seeing her look so sneaky, Chi Ye knew it was another shady business: "What is it?"

"Look..." Jin Xia used her finger to point secretly at the plates on the sofa coffee table, which contained many products from the sponsors of "See You."

There were fried nuts and various small-packaged snacks.

"Here, that one, just that one..." Jin Xia pointed at a pack of Weilong spicy strips: "Go get me a pack."

"Huh?" Chi Ye was confused.

"You want to eat spicy strips?"

"I've heard of them." The Lao Foye first emphasized that she wasn't an alien, then said sweetly: "But I've never eaten them."

"I heard this stuff is delicious..."

"But this stuff has additives." Chi Ye shook his head: "Don't you only eat healthy things?"

Jin Xia was stunned, her peach-blossom eyes thoughtful: "Then the additives are healthy, right?"

Chi Ye: "...... What do you think?"

Jin Xia affirmed: "They're healthy!"

Chi Ye: "..."

Jin Xia used her ultimate move, her charming peach-blossom eyes filled with pity, and her small, white, tender hands tugged at the corner of Chi Ye's clothes, shaking and shaking: "There are cameras everywhere over there, Teacher Chi, help me get a pack, will you, please~"

Chi Ye admitted that a normal man really couldn't handle this; he almost failed the test: "Stop, stop, don't talk like that, I'll go get it for you."

"Good."

Jin Xia ended her move in a second, obediently straightening her back, like a primary school student waiting for a meal.

Chi Ye glanced at her, strolled to the living room, grabbed a handful of spicy strip snacks, and returned as if nothing had happened.

"Teacher Chi! You are the best Teacher Chi in the whole world!"

Jin Xia witnessed the whole process and gave Chi Ye an "evaluation" beyond what outsiders could imagine.

"Don't say that, little sister, I don't buy that."

Chi Ye handed over a pack of spicy strips righteously: "Your additives."

Jin Xia was startled to see him hand it to her so directly and looked around in a panic: "Teacher Chi, how can you give me this kind of thing so directly?"

Chi Ye: "?"

"Then what, should I give it to you indirectly?"

He stuffed it directly into her hand.

Jin Xia felt a bit uneasy, but her small hands quickly took it; her charming peach-blossom eyes glanced around sneakily, and finding no one was paying attention to this side, she felt relieved.

She turned her back and quietly tore open the packaging bag, looked at the "delicacy" that only existed in "legends" inside the bag, solemnly and seriously picked up a small piece, stuffed it into her mouth, and chewed elegantly.

Chi Ye saw this series of actions and rubbed his forehead.

There's no saving her, this girl is beyond saving.

"Hmm......!!"

A voice with slight surprise and emotion came; Chi Ye squinted and saw Jin Xia, who was like a little hamster stealing grain with her back to him, currently making a sound that made one's heart race.

"Lao Foye, are... are you okay?"

Chi Ye was startled.

This child wouldn't be crying because she couldn't handle the spice, would she?

But Weilong isn't even spicy.

"It's too delicious!" Jin Xia turned her face to the side; her fairy-like face, full of imperial aura, was now full of excitement and satisfaction: "Teacher Chi... I didn't expect that spicy strips... this stuff would actually be so delicious!"

She felt that the twenty-plus years of her life before this had been lived in vain!

Chi Ye: "...... Not to that extent, not to that extent; I also didn't expect you to like eating additives so much."

"Who said these additives aren't good? These additives are great!" Jin Xia nodded repeatedly: "This is what people should eat!"

Chi Ye's mood was a bit complicated: "Yes, the additives have finally met the person who understands them best."

This is the romance of a two-way rush!

"Teacher Chi, please respect top-tier international cuisine!"

Jin Xia argued with her back to him, and again solemnly picked up a spicy strip, elegantly stuffing it into her mouth, chewing, and savoring it.

"If the spicy strip knew you were eating it like this, it would have to kowtow to you."

Seeing her eating so slowly, Chi Ye didn't continue to stay here with her and turned to say: "I'll go help Teacher Shi."

"I'll be there in a moment!"

"No need, by the time you come, we'll all have starved to death."

Chi Ye said the truth and walked to the kitchen, only to see Yang Zi currently frying eggs with a frying pan.

Eh, the big boss also cooks for himself?

Chi Ye was surprised, then turned to look at Shi Daifu, who was busy bending over on the other side.

She had tied her waterfall-like long hair into a simple high ponytail and was seriously squeezing jam.

Yang Zi wouldn't be crazy enough to "voluntarily" take a punch from Shi Daifu in the kitchen, would he?

He paused and asked Shi Daifu: "Is there anything I can help with?"

Shi Daifu raised her head; seeing it was him, her eyes dodged: "No."

Chi Ye: "..."

Shi Daifu knew Chi Ye had misunderstood and pointed to the three sandwiches that were already made: "It's done."

"...... Alright, thank you, tell me if there's any work in the future."

Yang Zi, who was also very "serious," turned his head and sneered: "You'll do it if there's work?"

Chi Ye glanced at him: "No, I won't."

"I was just being polite."

Yang Zi: "..."

Ptooey! Shameless!

Chi Ye had already finished greeting Shi Daifu and walked out of the kitchen.

"A person like this, tell me, why did the production team invite him? To be a master?"

Yang Zi was still indignant: "Just now, everyone else didn't sleep, only he slept!"

Shi Daifu remained silent, placed the sandwiches on a tray, and carried them out.

Yang Zi: "..."

What kind of people are in this show!

Teacher Huang, Teacher Lu, come quickly!

I can't handle the young group by myself at all; they are all talented players!

Five minutes later, the first breakfast of the "See You" cabin was arranged into a beautiful shape by Jin Xia and placed on the dining table.

Everyone sat down one by one and began to eat.

Only then did the number of people in the live stream room, which the production team had kept open, increase.

"Good morning, everyone."

"Another day of watching monsters and ghosts making trouble."

"Today is a very special day, Teacher Huang is moving in!"

"Fans of Brother Xiaoming have arrived uninvited!"

"Hu Ye (Chi Ye), you owe my little baby Jingyi an apology!"

"The survival challenge mode of the 'See You' cabin officially begins!"

"Cherish this last beautiful breakfast."

The bullet comments rolled; today was the day the guests of the "See You" cabin gathered, and the attention was even more explosive than yesterday.

The production team clearly understood the netizens.

At this moment, Director Li, who was observing the bullet comments, coughed lightly to remind everyone at the dining table: "Everyone, try to save some room in your stomachs; Teacher Huang said he's coming over at noon today to cook a table of hearty dishes for you."

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed instantly, even Yang Zi, who had just been shouting for Teacher Huang to move in quickly, was no exception.

They all accelerated their movements of picking up food and eating.

"Meet, the Real You" was violently modified into "The Hungry Ghosts on the Tip of the Tongue"!
