Chapter 80 -77 I said I bought a Mercedes S550, you go around saying I got shot immediately…
Before, the leaders at her company always said to treat the company as one’s own home, so doesn’t that make the colleagues family?
“You are the show’s sponsors, and I’m a guest of this show, aren’t we all family? So why should family make things difficult for family?” Chen Xixi looked at Zhou Jinyuan, batting her eyes and flashing a sweet smile: “President Zhou, wouldn’t you say so?”
Lu Wenling’s approval had already been given; now it all depended on Zhou Jinyuan’s attitude.
So when Chen Xixi mentioned “family,” she purposefully emphasized it towards Zhou Jinyuan.
Zhou Jinyuan looked straight at Chen Xixi, his lips slowly curling into a faint smile, and then he nodded, his tone carrying a hint of intrigue, “Yes, family.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Xixi believed there was hope, her clear apricot eyes shining brightly, “Then will you give the approval?”
Zhou Jinyuan made a light “hmm” sound, picked up the card from the table, and gave the approval.
Chen Xixi smiled gratefully: “Thank you, my good comrade-in-arms President Zhou!”
Throughout the entire conversation, Chen Xixi’s hand-fluttering gesture never stopped, especially when she heard Zhou Jinyuan give the approval—she shook even more vigorously in her excitement!
[President Zhou and Chen Xixi seem to hit it off a bit too well!]
[Don’t get it twisted! Theirs is a purely platonic camaraderie!]
After finishing speaking, Chen Xixi stood up to leave. Zhou Jinyuan watched Chen Xixi’s figure disappear completely from his sight before shifting his attention to Lu Wenling.
Lu Wenling was still engrossed in eating fish, immersed in the delicious food, but in the next second, the plate in front of him seemed to grow legs and walk away…
Lu Wenling followed the movement of the plate with his eyes until he met Zhou Jinyuan’s chilly gaze.
Lu Wenling frowned and said, “What are you doing? That’s the dish Chen Xixi made for me!”
Zhou Jinyuan glanced at him, “You should be glad I let you have a few bites.”
Lu Wenling: Alright, alright, the person and the dish both belong to you, huh?
…
Out of the five guests, only Chen Xixi and Han Qianyi passed the big meal challenge.
Thus, the other three male guests could only stand outside as punishment.
Han Qianyi was just about to enter the dining room arranged by the show crew, when Zheng He suddenly reached out to stop her, saying, “Just now, after discussions with the organization, we’ve decided to entrust you with two very important tasks.”
Han Qianyi tilted her head, her eyes filled with confusion, “Organization?”

Why did it suddenly feel like some sort of clandestine meeting?
Zheng He nodded seriously, speaking earnestly, “First, get Chen Xixi drunk so that we can sleep peacefully tonight. Second, pack more food for the other members of the organization. Otherwise, a well-fed Chen Xixi might be too much for us to handle. She’s surprisingly strong!”
He was fortunate enough to experience it himself when he was kicked last time.
Zheng He said, patting Han Qianyi’s arm firmly, “These two tasks were collectively decided by the organization, I hope you won’t let us down!”
“…” Han Qianyi said, “I’ll do my best.”
[Mr. Han is entrusted with a heavy responsibility!]
[Carrying the hopes of four people! You think this is a joke! Whether these four can turn the tables or not depends on whether they can keep hold of this Gold Coin in the next twenty-four hours!]
Getting Chen Xixi drunk was something Han Qianyi felt somewhat confident about, after all, her tolerance for alcohol was decent, but as for taking food to go… she really felt too embarrassed to do so.
After entering the dining room, Han Qianyi kept in mind the tasks assigned by Zheng He, she first toasted a few drinks to Lu Wenling, and likewise, to Zhou Jinyuan, performing the social rituals flawlessly.
As for Chen Xixi, she first began with a dance ritual before speaking, and then, holding a super-sized porcelain bowl filled with a big bowl of beef, she warmly said, “Family shouldn’t speak as if they’re outsiders. Everyone, let’s eat well and drink well!”
After completing the opening ceremony and greetings, she started to eat heartily.
The crew and sponsors had finally bled a little, so Chen Xixi was surely determined to make up for all the hardships she endured these days with food, otherwise, she wouldn’t be Chen Xixi!
And drinking was out of the question—alcohol takes up valuable stomach space, and if she didn’t eat enough, she’d be starving by tomorrow morning.
[Well, slap my knees and call me impressed, Chen Xixi really treats President Zhou and President Lu as her own family.]
[Does Chen Xixi only eat vegetables and not rice? Ah… It seems like I saw some, found a small amount of rice under the heaps of beef.]
[Isn’t this Chen Xixi eating out of spite?]
[Oh my god, compared to Han Qianyi, I feel Han Qianyi is a bit more delicate. I can’t really accept Chen Xixi’s way of eating, especially with the big boss around.]
[The person above, are you joking? If we just want to see their normal lives, wouldn’t watching celebrity lifestyle variety shows be more appealing? Why bother watching these nobodies? Aren’t we watching this cost-saving reality show precisely to see how they fill their bellies with the least amount of money?]
[Exactly, now that there’s an opportunity to eat to one’s fill, better seize the moment, who knows who’ll be hungry next meal!]
Han Qianyi frowned, thinking disdainfully, showing such embarrassment in front of the sponsor, eating like a refugee who hasn’t had food for over a decade, who is she trying to act close with here? Acting like we’re family?
That’s what Han Qianyi thought inside, but outwardly she smiled at Chen Xixi and reminded her: “Don’t just focus on your own food, hurry up and propose a toast to the sponsor!”
Maybe she won’t need to make a move, the sponsor might get Chen Xixi drunk all on their own!
And now the netizens must think she’s very well-mannered, kindly reminding Chen Xixi, who’s unfamiliar with the culture of drinking at the table.
Such a perfect person, receiving a few extra popularity votes tonight wouldn’t be too much, right?
Chen Xixi was eating heartily when she heard Han Qianyi’s words, lifted her head, put down the chopsticks, shook her fancy hand, furrowed her brows slightly, and pretended not to hear clearly, “What? You’re toasting the sponsor?”
After asking, Chen Xixi doesn’t give Han Qianyi a chance to repeat and quickly continues shaking her fancy hand while turning to Zhou Jinyuan and Lu Wenling and says: “Han Qianyi says she wants to drink to her heart’s content with you two tonight, not going back until she’s drunk!”
Han Qianyi: “???” When did I say that?
After passing on the message, Chen Xixi continues to eat her head down.
Can Han Qianyi keep calm? Chen Xixi thinks that’s impossible, so, there’s no way she’s drinking.
Be always on guard against the schemers, only then can you successfully win the five million prize money!
After Chen Xixi said this, Lu Wenling immediately looked at Han Qianyi and laughed, “Since that’s the case, let’s have a drink together, but don’t force yourself.”
Given that Lu Wenling had given face to agree, if Han Qianyi didn’t agree, that would seem rude, she forced a smile: “Not at all, not at all.”
Saying this, she secretly glared fiercely at Chen Xixi!
[Han Qianyi: I say I bought a Mercedes-Benz S550, you go around saying I’m about to be executed by firing squad…]
[Han Qianyi was hoping the sponsor would get Chen Xixi drunk to complete the task assigned by the organization, right? She didn’t expect Chen Xixi to outsmart her, hahaha!]
[Hahaha, Han Qianyi is still no match against Chen Xixi!]
Zhou Jinyuan saw Chen Xixi continuously eating with her head down, thinking she must have been hungry these past few days. He served her a bowl of chicken soup by her hand, and whispered, “Eat slowly, no one is competing with you, there’s more if it’s not enough.”
Chen Xixi turned to look at Zhou Jinyuan, smiled, and began to shake her fancy hand, “Thanks for the chicken soup, President Zhou.”
Zhou Jinyuan’s lips curved up slightly: “Aren’t we family? No need to call me President Zhou from now on.”
Chen Xixi’s brows went up slightly: “Then what should I call you?”
Zhou Jinyuan: “Call me by my name.”
“Alright, Mr. Zhou…” Chen Xixi started hesitantly.
“I’m not Mr. Zhou.”
Chen Xixi obviously knew he wasn’t Mr. Zhou, after finishing her fancy hand gesture, she touched her nose, slightly sheepishly saying, “I have something to ask you.”
Zhou Jinyuan had a faint premonition, he looked up at Chen Xixi, his thin lips parted slightly: “Go ahead.”
“Promise not to get angry, okay?”
“Hmm.”
Chen Xixi smiled awkwardly and asked, “What’s your name again?”
Zhou Jinyuan silently looked at her for a while, then suddenly laughed.
That laughter sounded a little sinister to Chen Xixi.
Zhou Jinyuan: She didn’t even remember his name, and she was just talking about being revolutionary comrades, family… Heh.
