Roof.
Shen Yan ran all the way up, gasping for breath.
A little sweat only made his lips redder and his skin fairer.
Pei Heng turned his head to look at Shen Yan. “I feel like you’re not the same as before.”
Shen Yan thought to himself: I transmigrated from a book, of course I’m different.
According to the original novel’s plot, there was no such thing as a last-minute change of filming location.
But the director had still arranged the Pink Hand-in-Hand segment.
The grouping was almost the same as it is now.
Except that back then, the show guest was Pei Heng’s younger brother, Pei Ning.
Pei Ning liked Xie Li and especially hated the original owner. During the game, in order to help Xie Li get the ingredients, Pei Ning nearly pushed the original owner off the roof and killed him on the spot.
Hiss~
According to the original plot, the original owner and Pei Heng had never even met.
If you don’t know, just ask. Shen Yan looked up at Pei Heng. “Have we met before?”
Pei Heng smiled calmly. “No. I found out about you online. I feel like the real you is different from what people said online.”
I see.
Shen Yan was vain and immediately struck a pose.
“Am I even more handsome in person?”
Pei Heng’s smile deepened. “Mm, more handsome.”
『Ahhhh! Is President Pei into Shen Yan? Feels kind of sweet.』
『How could that be? Shen Yan is such a scumbag. Is President Pei blind to like him? It must be for the show.』
『Why are you cursing Shen Yan? Since the show started broadcasting, haven’t Xie Li and Lu Xingchuan been the ones causing trouble?』
Satisfied with the answer, Shen Yan happily bounced lightly on the spot and snapped his fingers at Pei Heng.
“You have good taste. I’ll carry you to victory!”
Although the filming location had been changed.
The people who set up the venue were still the same.
Shen Yan clearly remembered how perversely those people had hidden the ingredients in the book.
His burning gaze immediately locked onto the flower trellis.
Shen Yan dashed toward the flower trellis. “There must be ingredients up there. I’m climbing up.”
“No, that’s too dangerous!”
Before Pei Heng could speak, Xie Li’s panting voice came from the side.
Having just climbed up from downstairs, Xie Li leaned softly against the wall, his red lips slightly parted, chest heaving as he gasped.
This made his fans go crazy.
Lu Xingchuan was beside him.
Compared to Xie Li’s naturalness, Lu Xingchuan looked awkward.
Obviously, the two of them had just run off suddenly, clearly trying to avoid them, and now he and Xie Li had chased after them, making him lose face.
Xie Li’s concern seemed genuine. “President Pei, the production team won’t ignore the guests’ safety. This flower trellis is three meters high. Don’t take risks. It’s too dangerous.”
Lu Xingchuan’s tone was stiff. “This flower trellis isn’t sturdy. Climbing it will collapse it.”
Shen Yan immediately laid his cards on the table. “Once we get the ingredients, don’t you dare shamelessly come over and share!”
Lu Xingchuan’s eyelids twitched in anger. “Ungrateful!”
Shen Yan gave him a straight middle finger. “Then get lost!”
『Shen Yan is really annoying. Absolutely no manners.』
『I feel bad for Lu Xingchuan and Xie Li. They meant well but got treated like donkey’s liver and lungs.』
Xie Li bit his lip and stepped forward. “Shen Yan, don’t be stubborn. I don’t know why you’re mad at me, but you can’t act on impulse like this. Even if you win, what does it prove? You’ll drag President Pei into this…”
Before Xie Li could finish.
Pei Heng interrupted him and said to Shen Yan, “Ready?”
Shen Yan nodded.
Pei Heng bent his legs slightly, patted just above his knees, took Shen Yan’s hand, and yanked him up. “Up!”
Shen Yan stepped on Pei Heng’s legs and, in a flash, stood on his shoulders.
Pei Heng raised both hands high, one hand always holding Shen Yan steady, the other lightly resting on his calf.
Xie Li’s eyes widened in shock. “Shen Yan, how can you step on President Pei’s shoulders?”
Lu Xingchuan’s face turned livid.
Shen Yan stood on Pei Heng’s shoulders, legs slightly bent, and shouted excitedly, “Quick, forward!”
Pei Heng’s eyes held a smile as he followed Shen Yan’s directions.
“Forward, a bit more forward. Yes, that’s it. Left a bit. Left. Good!”
Whoosh!
He took down a pack of salmon.
Pei Heng caught it and threw the salmon into the basket.
Whoosh!
He took down a pack of mushroom and vegetable mix.
Whoosh!
He took down a fish!
Whoosh!
He took down a box of chilled chicken wings.
Whoosh!
Shen Yan jumped down from Pei Heng’s shoulders.
His eyes were wild with excitement. “Hahaha, we definitely won’t go hungry now.”
Pei Heng packed all the ingredients into the basket. “Should we keep looking here? If not, let’s look elsewhere.”
Shen Yan couldn’t wait. “Let’s go, go, go.”
The two held hands and quickly left.
Without any intention of exchanging pleasantries with Lu Xingchuan and Xie Li.
“Shen Yan is really capable. Finding something hidden so secretly in the flower trellis is like having the power of prophecy, as if you knew it was there all along.” Xie Li directly blocked Shen Yan’s path, a shy smile on his face. “Can you teach me the trick? Otherwise, Brother Xingchuan and I will go hungry.”
『Now that Xie Li says it, I find it strange too. Did Shen Yan get advance information?』
『Yeah, that position on the flower trellis is really hard to find.』
Facing Xie Li’s innocent-looking face, Shen Yan bared his teeth. “Hehehehehe, that’s right, I am the production team’s biggest insider. I invested all the money in this production team. The director has to get my approval for everything he hides. If I don’t agree, he…”
“Shen Yan!” The director, who was monitoring the show’s progress, rushed over with a knife. “Say that again, and see what happens!”
Shen Yan immediately said to the director, “Xie Li said I have prophetic powers, but it sounds like he’s saying I know some inside info. If you want me to take the blame, I will, but then you really have to give me some tips, or I won’t do it! After all, my agent sent me on this show to be Xie Li’s foil.”
Shen Yan was fearless.
No internal drama.
The netizens who had just been suspicious whether Shen Yan had advance information suddenly remembered the screenshot Shen Yan had posted on Weibo.
The agent told him to behave on the show and be Xie Li’s foil.
『Then maybe Pei Heng got the information?』
『Possible. The production team can’t really starve Pei Heng, can they?』
“If I’m taking the blame, then I should at least get a little tip.” Pei Heng held Shen Yan’s hand, leaned against the wall, his long legs slightly bent, looking at the director with a half-smile. “Otherwise, netizens will curse me. I don’t mind being cursed, but I hate being cursed for nothing.”
The director was furious!
He raised his knife and roared, “We’re a serious show! It’s a full livestream! No one has any special privileges!”
The camera big brother dutifully reminded him, “Director, no cursing.”
『Hahahaha! I feel like the director and the camera big brother’s CP could be shipped too.』
『You’re really desperate.』
『I kind of dislike Xie Li now. When Shen Yan and Pei Heng were looking for ingredients, he kept stopping them. When they found them, he hinted that they had privileges. So annoying.』
