The people of the Free State becoming celebrities in the Great Xia Empire?
Madness?
âI didnât ask,â Jiang Changfeng shook his head slightly. âBut itâs definitely not simple. Dad, youâre a blabbermouth, donât spread it around.â
âNonsense,â Jiang Luying slapped him on the head. âI understand that much. Miss Si trusts us; we canât cause her trouble.â
Jiang Changfeng, expressionless, said, âIâm going to ask the Third Elder for a gaming pod.â
âGo, go,â Jiang Luying was gleeful. âAh, in the future, let Ningning bring me the seeds. Youâre not four-star yet; you canât do it.â
Jiang Changfeng: â .
He left the house, taking several detours to the Elder Village entrance.
The Third Elder was still lying on the rocking chair, leisurely smoking his pipe.
Upon hearing Jiang Changfengâs request, he expressed surprise, âWhat do you want with an abandoned gaming pod?â
Jiang Changfeng, with a deadpan face, replied, âTo dismantle and study.â
âOh.â The Third Elder nodded, âAlmost forgot you participated in that international joint exam, a science student. Alright, go get it. Itâs in the back mountain. By the way, are you confident about tomorrowâs assessment?â Jiang Changfeng paused, then responded, âYeah.â
âBe careful,â the Third Elder added with concern. âYour old rival has gained a lot from the game; his pharmaceutical skills might surpass yours now. Prepare well.â
Meanwhile, Si Fuqing returned to the program camp.
The other guests were still gathered around the bonfire.
âQingqing, come here, I saved you a skewer of grilled eggs,â Ning Luoyao waved. âSu God grilled them, his skills are no less than yours.â Su Yang, eyes downcast, began to speak, âActually, I justââ
Si Fuqing glanced at him.
Su Yang fell silent.
[Si Fuqingâs presence is truly strong.] [I have a feeling Su God was about to say he learned grilling from Si Fuqing.] [Youâre not the only one who thinks so.]
[Forget it, why imagine such things? How could they meet in a bar and learn to grill?]
Si Fuqing joyfully ate the skewers, feeling very content with life.
Suddenly, her ears twitched.
âAhâ!â Ning Luoyao screamed. âQingqing, be careful! There are two scorpions next to you!â
Si Fuqingâs hearing was extraordinary, and her actions were swift.
As the scorpions sprayed their venom, she had already poured out the hot water from her cup.
Si Fuqing patted Ning Luoyaoâs back, reassuring her, âItâs okay, itâs over now.â
While speaking, she emotionlessly disposed of the scorpionsâ venom glands and threw them into the trash bin.
âIâve scattered realgar powder around, and the crew cleaned this place too,â Ning Luoyao was still shaken. âHow could such things still appear?â
Ning Luoyaoâs scream also alerted the others.
Su Yangâs expression changed: âWhat happened?!â
âWhy are there scorpions here?â the director rushed over. âQuick, Miss Si, weâll take you to the hospital!â
The live audience was also stunned.
[Is Qingqing alright?!]
[Sheâs fine, she reacted quickly and wasnât touched by the venom. I was so scared. 1
Si Fuqing didnât refuse, âMhmm.â
Xu Jiannian volunteered, âIâll take you.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Yang turned, âYou have a car? If not, whatâs the use? By the time you get there, it would be too late.â
Si Fuqing:
Cursing her?
âLetâs go.â Su Yang stood up. âIâll take you to the hospital.â
âHurry, hurry,â the director was frantic. âMiss Si, take a break from survival tomorrow; health is more important.â
An unexpected day off made Si Fuqing feel even more relaxed, her expression visibly brightening, âDirector, youâre such a good person.â
She conveniently planned to check the Miracle Doctor Allianceâs assessment.
The scorpions hadnât affected her at all.
In the end, Si Fuqing didnât go to the hospital but decided to stay at a hotel for the night.
However, as soon as she arrived downstairs, she was stopped.
She glanced at the young man sitting in the wheelchair, lowered her hat a bit, and said to Su Yang, âLetâs turn around and find another hotel while weâre not noticed.â
Su Yang sighed, âIâm afraid itâs too late, Sister, be brave.â
Si Fuqing:
This wasnât about courage; it was about money.
But running away now was pointless. If her boss was here, it meant he had seen the live broadcast.
Yu Xiheng leisurely extended a hand towards her, his tone mild, âCome here.â
Si Fuqing didnât move.
âYear-end bonus.â
Si Fuqing moved, greeting him, âWow, what a coincidence to meet you here, boss..â
