Chapter 65: A Sudden Outburst of Anger

"Comical, they both agreed and you didn't? What's it got to do with you?!"

"Come on, cameraman, don't hide! Let me see who this troublemaker is?!"

"The voice doesn't sound like Lu Yuanhang? Could it be Lu Yuanhang 2.0?!"

"What a joke! Haha, it's just Lu Yuanhang's brother, Lu Siqi?!"

Lu Siqi seemed not to mind revealing himself, stepping forward to voice his objection, "Since it's a variety show, there should be rules. We can't let everyone do as they please, right?"

Jian Li chuckled, "So, what do you suggest?"

With a Taiwanese accent, Lu Siqi retorted, his face changing slightly, then said in the next second, "Let's draw lots."

"Draw lots to decide the rooms and beds!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a mocking laugh echoed from nearby.

Luo Xiaohong pouted, "Do we really need to draw lots just to sleep?! You're all so bored!"

"Men are such troublemakers, we women are different!"

"Come on, let's ignore them and go inside first."

"Hey, what was your name again? Li Zimu?"

"I see you have an unusual build, a rare talent for martial arts. Who did you learn from?"

"You haven't found a master yet? How about..."

The three female guests had already entered the room, and the conversation came to an abrupt end with the sound of the door closing.

Lu Siqi's expression grew increasingly grim, finally experiencing the feeling of being targeted by everyone.

Isn't this deliberate exclusion?!

They don't even care about the capital?!

This is too much?!

As the atmosphere grew awkward, Huo Xiao suddenly spoke up, "Let's draw lots. Staff, help make some slips of paper."

"Don't delay our meal."

He glanced at Jian Li as he spoke.

The latter subconsciously rubbed his stomach, "... Damn! How did he know I'm hungry?!"

"Sure." Someone responded behind the camera.

In the live stream, comments popped up,

"So sweet! He compromised just for our Brother Li, right?!"

"Yes, mainly because he's afraid Jian-the-foodie-Li will be hungry."

"Jian Li: Honey, I'm hungry, food!"

"Huo Xiao: Darling, don't worry, it's coming right away!"

There were nine male guests, two rooms, destined for uneven distribution.

The older returnee Gu Yuan offered humbly, "You choose first, I'll take the last one."

Lu Yuanhang, who had been scolded, became quieter and stood silently behind.

Only when the final results were out did everyone start moving towards their rooms.

Luo Chen lagged behind, and when the cameraman wasn't paying attention, someone pulled on his sleeve, a devilish whisper entering his ear, "Know what to do, right?"

"Y-Yes."

Luo Chen nodded, lifting his eyes and catching sight of Lu Yuanhang smirking arrogantly as he walked into the other room.

He stood there, his mind drifting back to the early days of his career, when he went to Qing Bar at the request of his agent...

That was where all the nightmares began!

The accommodation room was simply decorated, in a typical French medieval style.

Five beds, one table, one chair—that was all the furniture.

The warm yellow light cast a cozy glow on the white sheets and bedcovers.

Huo Xiao drew the lot to be next to Jian Li, setting down his suitcase and pressing a hand on the pillow, "We seem to have quite the connection."

Jian Li turned his head, seeing the incomparably handsome face, a sly smile playing on his lips, "What kind of connection? The kind that involves tampering?"

"At least it's not a cursed connection," Huo Xiao pursed his lips.

Laughing to death, in my aunt's variety show,

Can't I do as I please?!

Lu Siqi should have done proper market research before deciding to participate in the variety show,

Otherwise, he'll die without knowing why!

In another room, Lu Siqi was indeed seething with anger.

He couldn’t figure out why the simplest and most effective way to disrupt order had failed?

How could Huo Xiao have succeeded?

Damn it, what went wrong?

Lu Siqi angrily slammed his fist into the bed.

The thick blanket absorbed all of his rage.

The fans in the live stream saw this and laughed, pounding their keyboards,

"Ha ha ha, damn! Is this what it feels like to punch a pillow?!"

"In a fit of anger, he got angry for a moment!"

"Blanket: My biggest reaction is no reaction at all!"

"Dinner is ready, come down and eat!"

The French man clearly knew some Chinese, and his simple sentences were quite fluent.

But just as he finished speaking, still savoring his pronunciation, he saw a group of people rushing down the stairs.

French man, "!!!!"

What’s going on?!

Is this a terror drill?!

"Ha ha ha, look how scared the boss is, his back is pressed tightly against the wall, afraid he might fall over!"

"Don’t be scared, it’s just a leftover from military training. When I first started college, every time I went to the cafeteria, it felt like a dog was chasing me!"

"Brother Li is so cute, he came out of the room like a whirlwind, bringing a bunch of brothers with him!"

"Every time everyone looks so serious about grabbing food, I can’t help but laugh."

When Jian Li arrived at the dining room, he found the table already set with steaming hot dishes.

Zhou Nan stood beside it, introducing, "French-style braised potatoes, French onion soup, toasted bread, grilled steak, and two bottles of vintage red wine!"

"Bro, you really know me!" Jian Li gave a thumbs up, plopped down in his seat, picked up his knife and fork, cut a piece of steak, and put it in his mouth, looking very satisfied,

"Authentic!"

Lu Siqi walked in and saw this, his tone full of disdain, "You haven’t eaten anything good."

Jian Li glanced at him sideways, "Is your mouth connected directly to your colon? Anything can..."

Suddenly, he curled his lips into a smile, "Never mind, let’s not ruin the appetite during such a wonderful mealtime,"

"Everyone can fill in the blanks."

Lu Siqi was embarrassed and angry, "You—"

"Don’t go too far!"

"Ha ha, do we even need to fill in the blanks? Directly connected to the colon, of course anything can come out!"

"I was pretty hungry, but now I’ve lost my appetite after filling in the blanks!"

"Lu Siqi is such a mood killer, Brother Li’s scolding was so satisfying!"

Huo Xiao cut a piece of bread, dipped it in the onion soup, and placed it on Jian Li’s plate, "Focus on eating, ignore the idiot."

Jian Li looked at Huo Xiao in surprise, "Hey, Mr. Movie Star, you..."

Don’t need to maintain your image?!

Huo Xiao seemed to understand his unspoken meaning and leaned close to his ear, "I have a solid foundation, nothing to fear."

Jian Li, "Don’t get too cocky, the world hates the rich."

He picked up the piece of bread and suddenly changed the subject, "But don’t worry, I’ll protect you."

Even if you’re kidnapped by a terrorist, I’ll rescue you!

Huo Xiao’s narrow, almond-shaped eyes curved even more, and he cut another piece of bread, asking in a low, husky voice, "Do you want to dip it in garlic egg yolk sauce this time?"

Jian Li’s eyes lit up, "Let’s try it!"

Their interaction, oblivious to others, made Lu Siqi clench his fists in secret,

Deliberately trying to upset me, huh?

Jian Li, you’ll regret this!
