41: Chapter 41 Damn it! Yuan Hua?!

After all this commotion, the atmosphere on the beach finally relaxed.

The staff members were already packing up the props, and several cameramen had also turned off their machines, leaning against the coconut trees to drink water and rest.

Director Zhou was standing under the sunshade, lowering his head and saying something to the Deputy Director.

From time to time, he also raised his eyes to glance in the direction of the guests, a trace of a satisfied curve at the corner of his mouth.

Although the live broadcast room was still open, the camera had already zoomed out.

"Alright, alright, everyone has worked hard!"

Director Zhou picked up the megaphone and shouted.

"After a morning of competition, I know everyone is tired, but we can't rest just yet, because next is... the dining segment!"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several guests changed immediately.

Xu Hao was the first to bounce up from his chair. Just a moment ago, he still looked listless, but now he instantly regained his spirit.

"We can finally eat!"

Su Qing also raised her head, subconsciously glanced at Zhou Yichen, and her expression was somewhat complicated.

Zhou Yichen was still sitting on the lounge chair without moving, his expression gloomy.

He had also heard Director Zhou's words just now, but the four words "dining segment" falling into his ears did not bring any joy.

What this meant, he knew very well in his heart.

Director Zhou cleared his throat and continued.

"The rewards you all won in the competition just now can now be redeemed! The first place luxury seafood feast and the designated ingredients for the second and third places can all be collected on the first floor of the Heartbeat Apartment."

"As for fourth place..."

Director Zhou paused, his gaze falling on Zhou Yichen and Su Qing, with a trace of apology in his expression.

"According to the rules, fourth place has no ingredient rewards, and the Program Team will not provide any ingredients either."

Zhou Yichen's expression sank completely.

Although he had known this result long ago, hearing it with his own ears still made his heart feel stuffed and uncomfortable.

Without ingredients, what to eat at noon?

Eat shit?

The bullet comment area of the live broadcast room instantly became lively.

[Hahaha Zhou Yichen's expression, I took a screenshot]

[The Program Team is truly ruthless, if they say they won't give it, they won't give it. Fourth place doesn't even have a single scallion]

[This time Zhou Yichen can only watch others eat at noon]

[Oh my, won't this drool Zhou Yichen and Su Qing to tears?]

Netizens in the live broadcast room all chimed in and booed.

Seeming to know the doubts of Zhou Yichen and the others, Director Zhou added another sentence.

"Of course, although the Program Team does not provide ingredients to you, you can also think of ways yourselves."

"For example, mooching a meal from others."

Director Zhou raised a finger, his expression serious.

"In short, apart from buying directly with money, any method is fine, even if you personally go into the sea to catch fish."

As soon as these words came out, the corner of Zhou Yichen's mouth finally couldn't help twitching.

Mooching a meal?

Going into the sea to catch fish?

He was a top traffic star with tens of millions of fans, and they wanted him to go mooch meals? Let him go into the sea to catch fish?

What the fuck kind of joke is this?!

But Director Zhou's expression didn't look like he was joking.

[Hahaha, laughed me to death, no wonder Zhou Yichen kept falling into the water when breaking through obstacles, so it turns out he was practicing catching fish in advance]

[What the hell practicing catching fish, upstairs, are you trying to laugh me to death?]

[Family members, this cold joke is really not funny]

[Speaking of which, I've already associated the image of Zhou Yichen wearing a bamboo hat and holding a steel fork sitting on a fishing boat? Is there any big shot who can turn this scene into a movie?]

[This can exist, support!]

[Ah!!!!! You guys are cyberbullying! You are killing people, ah!!!]

[Holy shit! Tactical roaring, the little fairy has arrived, brothers, quickly retreat!]

At the scene.

Lu Li, who was eating melons with relish, after hearing the words catching fish, also subconsciously connected Zhou Yichen with a certain image.

Holy shit! Yuan Hua?!

Just as Lu Li was thinking, Shen Qingxue beside him had already stood up and walked toward the Heartbeat Apartment.

Only then did he react, dinner time had arrived.

"Hey, wait for me."

Soon, the two returned to the Heartbeat Apartment.

In the dining area of the apartment, they saw their seafood feast.

In an instant, Lu Li's eyes went straight.

No, isn't the Program Team being too generous?

Boston lobster, leopard coral grouper, abalone... and king crab?! All of them were packed full on a table, and just looking at it made people drool.

Moreover, these seafoods were not simply steamed and that's it; they were cooked by a proper chef, with exquisite plating, and were complete in color, aroma, and taste.

Meanwhile, the ingredients collected by the others were raw and needed to be processed by themselves. Truly, without comparison, there is no harm.

"This... is this really for us?" Lu Li couldn't quite believe it, turning his head to look at Shen Qingxue.

Shen Qingxue glanced at him, didn't speak, directly pulled out a chair and sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and gracefully and calmly picked up a boiled shrimp.

Lu Li scratched his head and sat down as well.

Fine, he was indeed a bit too excited.

But whatever, if they give it, just eat it.

...

Soon, Lin Mo, Xu Hao, and the others also finished cooking.

Of course, except for Xu Hao who was cooking properly, Lin Mo and Chen Wenwen were cooking instant noodles.

At least this stuff filled you up, and the taste was alright too.

Before long, everyone started eating.

The moment they started eating, the atmosphere in the dining area of the Heartbeat Apartment suddenly became subtle.

On a long table, Lu Li and Shen Qingxue sat in the absolute middle position, with that table of luxury seafood feast placed in front of them.

Not far away were Lin Mo and the others and Xu Hao's two CP groups, scattered on tables on both sides, and what they were eating looked quite delicious.

As for Zhou Yichen and Su Qing...

The two sat at the very edge, their fronts completely empty, not even a bowl was there.

Su Qing lowered her head, holding a cup of water in her hands, sipping it from time to time, her expression somewhat awkward.

Zhou Yichen leaned against the back of the chair, crossing his legs, trying his best to make himself look like he didn't care that much.

But his gaze always couldn't help drifting toward Lu Li's side.

Damn it, how could it be so fragrant?

...

Lu Li didn't care about these.

All of his current attention was on the table of seafood feast in front of him.

He pierced a piece of lobster meat with a fork, dipped it in the prepared sauce on the side, and sent it into his mouth.

The shrimp meat was firm and bouncy, the sauce was salty and fresh, and the two fused in the mouth; talk about satisfying.

"Mmm!!! Delicious!"

Lu Li couldn't help exclaiming, then picked up the orange juice next to him, took a sip, and continued into battle.

Shen Qingxue sat opposite him, unhurriedly peeling a shrimp, her movements very elegant.

The netizens in the live broadcast room saw this scene and instantly laughed uncontrollably.

[Laughed me to death, the way Slacker Brother eats is exactly like the golden retriever raised at my house]

[Upstairs, are you polite? Lu Li is a fresh-faced little meat after all, yet you say he looks like a golden retriever]

[Exactly, this is clearly the truest appearance of a meal-devourer, okay?]

[Undoubtedly a starved ghost reincarnated~]
