I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 266 - 260: Feels Like President Zhou Has Never Been This Frustrated in His Life!
Chapter 266: Chapter 260: Feels Like President Zhou Has Never Been This Frustrated in His Life!
Qian Yue hurriedly took the keys to the warehouse to release the other Guests.
At that moment, the eight Guests who emerged from the pitch-black warehouse were in a very bad mood, their faces as dark as if they could wring out ink.
Not only were their faces grim, but their eyes filled with resentment also occasionally fell on Zheng He.
It was not hard to tell who was the chief culprit behind their foul moods.
Qian Yue was utterly confused. Logically speaking, the ones who had locked them up were Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan, so if they were angry, shouldn’t it be directed at Zheng He? What was going on?
Once they came out of the warehouse, Wan Chen couldn’t help but look at Zheng He with indignation and said, "If it weren’t for you, would we have been completely defeated?"
Qi Shuo, a layperson standing by, also looked at Zheng He with dissatisfaction and added, "Exactly, if you hadn’t sent us that message to come over, we wouldn’t have ended up delivering our heads one by one and being locked in the warehouse for two hours!"
Han Qianyi glanced at Zheng He and frowned, "Right, we were all hiding just fine until you went ahead and betrayed us all!"
Both their groups had been hiding just fine, but then Zheng He suddenly sent them a message saying they should cooperate, claiming that in a game with ten people, single teams were unlikely to win. He promised that after cooperating, he wouldn’t snatch their points, and the points obtained could be shared evenly; the temptation was too great.
Initially, they did not trust Zheng He.
But then Zheng He added another line, "If you don’t agree, I’ll cooperate with others. There will definitely be someone who agrees, and you’ll regret it when that time comes."
Even if they hid, if the other few groups really teamed up later, could they still protect their points cards in a situation of eight against two, or six against two?
So, they weighed the pros and cons and decided it was better to take initiative rather than be passive, going out first to team up and seize the opportunity. frёewebnoѵēl.com
But the result... as soon as they got to the warehouse, they were all captured by Chen Xixi in one fell swoop!
They were all stuffed into the warehouse, away from the light of day.
For Chen Xixi to have a chance to pull off such a big move, Zheng He was simply the greatest contributor to this incident!
Who else should the other Guests resent if not Zheng He?!
And the good-at-explaining Zheng He, once again put all the blame on Xu Mu and Qin Wei, so for nearly two hours in the warehouse, there was mutual harm among the people.
Zheng He with a somber face, "Who could have known that Chen Xixi was so cunning!"
Unexpectedly, Xu Mu suddenly spoke, "Maybe it was Zhou Jinyuan’s idea."
Qi Shuo, "Regardless of whose idea it was, our points have been stolen now, and Zheng He definitely bears the most responsibility!"
Not only were they locked in the warehouse, but their points were also robbed by Chen Xixi!
The eight of them walked to the small square, and seeing Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan’s relaxed faces, they felt extremely uncomfortable.
Qian Yue carefully counted the Guests’ cards and announced incredulously, "Let’s congratulate Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan for snatching a total of 6 points in this segment. Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan now have a total of 8 points, making them the duo with the most points at the moment!"
As Qian Yue finished speaking, sparse applause sounded.
Chen Xixi’s success could only highlight their failure, so their congratulations weren’t sincere.
Next time, they would definitely take back their points!
Chen Xixi’s face was filled with a light smile; she hadn’t expected to gain so much.
It was all thanks to Zheng He, who sent everyone over.
For prey delivered to her doorstep, if she didn’t take it, wouldn’t that be impolite?
[Ha ha ha, the joys and sorrows of the world clearly do not communicate!]
[Chen Xixi is the most impressive one!]
[Mainly, it’s all thanks to Zheng He; otherwise, the other two groups might have had a chance to defend their points until the end.]
Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan walked into the Points Supermarket with their points.
"Did we work well together this time?" Zhou Jinyuan followed behind Chen Xixi, asking in a leisurely manner.
Chen Xixi made her way to the bedding department, picking out the cheapest mattress and blanket, and after making her choice, she looked up at Zhou Jinyuan with a smile in her eyes: "If tomorrow you’re still willing to team up with me, then let’s continue winning points together."
Zhou Jinyuan wanting to be in a group with her must be because he thinks she is the ’her’ he knew from his childhood, hence he sees her through some inexplicable filter and wants to be in a group with her.
But she herself is not certain whether she is the one or not. What if Zhou Jinyuan mistook her for someone else?
Just like one of those melodramatic idol dramas, where someone mistakes someone for their first love... She doesn’t want that to happen to her.
This is also the reason why she had been wanting to make things clear with Zhou Jinyuan just now, to keep her distance.
But apart from that, Zhou Jinyuan indeed makes a great partner.
Zhou Jinyuan curled his lips into a smile, his gaze inadvertently landing on the knick-knacks on the shelf beside him. He picked one up, looking at it curiously, "It seems I did quite well just now."
Chen Xixi encouraged him with a smile: "Keep it up."
Zhou Jinyuan suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, shaking the trinket in his hand, his deep eyes shimmering with an indistinct smile, "Then do I get a reward?"
She lowered her eyelashes and saw Zhou Jinyuan holding a red brooch.
The message was clear, he really liked it.
Chen Xixi: "If you want it, you can buy it yourself."
"All my family’s wealth is with you now, I’m quite poor at the moment."
Indeed, Zhou Jinyuan had just handed all his points over to her, making him quite poor.
Chen Xixi looked at him with a gleeful expression, then took the brooch from his hand and placed it back on the shelf, "We’ll talk about rewards later, our household lacks too many things right now, our economic situation doesn’t allow it, sorry."
Zhou Jinyuan, who had never experienced poverty since his birth, was refused for the first time when he wanted to buy something.
And the reason was ’our economic situation doesn’t allow it’, a phrase he was hearing for the first time.
Zhou Jinyuan was forced to face reality, lifting the corners of his lips slightly: "Alright, for the sake of our home, the reward can wait."
[President Zhou, who has grown up with a bank card in his mouth, probably never imagined he’d become this poor one day, haha!]
[I feel like President Zhou has never been this frustrated in his life, haha!]
[Only Chen Xixi dares to treat President Zhou this way. If it were any other guest, I feel even if President Zhou didn’t want it, they’d still rush to buy it for him.]
[President Zhou: All the hardships I’ve faced in life have been because of Chen Xixi.]
With the remaining 8 points, Chen Xixi exchanged for a mattress, blanket, and a water heater, spending all the points.
Chen Xixi pondered, "We have things for sleeping and bathing, when we win more points, we should exchange for some home appliances, then we can cook our meals, I checked just now, getting ingredients with points is much more cost-effective than ready-made meals."
Zhou Jinyuan nodded slowly: "Okay, I’ll listen to you."
After exchanging the goods, as they left the Points Supermarket, Chen Xixi looked at Zhou Jinyuan who was especially obedient to her and suddenly asked in a soft voice, "You said you knew me when we were kids, what was I like back then?"
She wanted to see if the person Zhou Jinyuan described was really her.
Zhou Jinyuan reflected for a moment, then seriously replied: "Short, round-faced, you loved to eat and play, and you always wanted me to help you with your homework."
"A short, fat, lazy, and not studious good-for-nothing?" Chen Xixi was somewhat in disbelief; was she that bad when she was little?
She asked again: "Did you help me with the homework then?"
Zhou Jinyuan glanced at her, his deep voice carrying a touch of nonchalance: "No, I’ve been upright since I was a kid, being a model citizen is not a joke."
"..." Who’s he calling not upright?
