Chapter 33

Chen Xiaomei’s face stiffened.

(F*ck, do you want to f*cking die?! I f*cking worked so hard to cook, yet you have so many complaints. You don’t have any manners at all. I won’t let you play with Bai Ruirui next time! If you continue to push me, I’ll poison you to death.)

Jiang Xinyuan’s face tensed up. This bad woman actually wanted to poison their food! He had to be careful. He secretly looked at Chen Xiaomei’s expression and saw that although she was cursing Feng Fei in her heart, she appeared to look embarrassed.

“I’m not familiar with the cookware and the seasonings in the village chief’s house. It’s also my first time using firewood to stir-fry vegetables. I don’t know how to control the heat. I’m really sorry, everyone. I hope you can make do,” Chen Xiaomei said humbly, making it seem like it was the environment’s problem.

[Chen Xiaomei made all the dishes on the table alone. The kid doesn’t know how to be grateful! He’s indeed a child from a single-parent family. He’s uneducated.]

[Feng Fei is just mischievous, and he only said that one thing. Is there a need to mention his upbringing?]

[What do you mean Chen Xiaomei did all the cooking alone? Others handled the vegetables; does that not count? Fu Xin also chopped firewood. Why are you saying that Chen Xiaomei was the only one who worked?]

[Why are you arguing like this? It’s just a variety show. Besides, Chen Xiaomei’s cooking is indeed not as good as what’s seen in her videos. Do you expect a child to suck up to her?]

“It’s my fault,” Zhang Nan quickly said. “I was the one who lit the fire. I saw that there was a gap inside, so I kept adding firewood. It’s getting late. Everyone, hurry up and eat. I won’t stand on ceremony. I’m starving.” As she spoke, she asked Feng Jun to quickly eat.

Fei Fei apologized to Chen Xiaomei again. “Xiaomei, I’m really sorry…”

“It’s alright. It’s true that I didn’t cook well and disappointed Feng Fei…” Chen Xiaomei was smiling on the surface, but she was cursing in her heart.

Fu Xin was not interested in such pleasantries. She got up and went to get more food for herself and Jiang Xinyuan.

Jiang Xinyuan picked up a piece of cabbage and swallowed it after chewing twice to make sure that it was fine. He then picked up more cabbage and placed them in Fu Xin’s bowl. He whispered into her ear, “Mommy, eat it. It’s not poisonous!”

Fu Xin: “???” She was participating in a children’s variety show, right? Why did he have to test the food for poison?

While the guests were eating, the production team was also eating.

However, unlike the guests, the staff’s food was delicious. The production team could not help but laugh when they thought about how these female guests, who had always been pampered, had to earn their own ingredients and cook for themselves in the next few days while they could eat sumptuous local specialties every day.

At this moment, the director’s phone rang. He glanced at it and saw that it was an unknown number. He picked it up casually. “Who is this?”

“Hello, I’m Jiang Yi.”

With this simple greeting, the director immediately put down his chopsticks and stood up. Then, he quickly went out and bowed while saying, “Hello, Mr. Jiang.

“What did you say? That big of an investment?” the director suddenly shouted. Although his show was relatively popular, it was not as popular as other variety shows. After all, it was less entertaining. He had spent a long time getting ten million yuan in sponsorship.

He had also spent most of this money on the early preparations. The salaries of the guests and staff were small. After all, there was really not much budget. As for Zhang Nan and Fei Fei, they were doing other work for the broadcasting company, so they decided to join this show simply because it was convenient. As for Fu Xin, it was purely an accident.

Initially, he was still having a headache over the sponsorship fees in the later stages. He did not expect Jiang Yi to invest 50 million the moment he opened his mouth. He even said that he would increase it depending on the situation…

The director was dizzy from the impact. He began to think hard, wondering if he had ever offended Fu Xin in the past two days. But he even gave her a bowl of chicken drumsticks today!

“However, I have a condition.”

Hearing Jiang Yi’s words, the director instantly became nervous, afraid that the sponsorship fee would be gone. He hurriedly said, “Tell me! No matter if it’s difficult or not, I’ll try my best to arrange it for you!”

“I’m not interested in the other guests. I just want to see my wife and child. I need a private live broadcast room. Only the two of them will be filmed.”

“No problem! I’ll arrange it for you now. What else do you need? Do you want to tell them…” The director thought that it was something important, but his request was a small matter. Coincidentally, they had an extra camera, so he could definitely make a private live broadcast.

Jiang Yi said, “There’s no need to tell them.”

The director immediately said, “Then should I keep it a secret from everyone else?”

“Yes.”

The director chuckled. “I’ll make the arrangements now. As for the investment…”

“My assistant will reach out to you.”

The director nodded and bowed again.
