What's wrong with being a salted fish?

For the last five days of the program, the program team rented a B&B on the beach. The beach was right outside the door. Lin Zhuo was so hooked that he went out to play twice every day.

After Lin Zhuo had dinner every evening, he carried a small bucket with a shovel in it, then wore swimming trunks and a transparent jacket and went to the beach to play in the sand. Because it was too close to the south and the sunshine was too long, Lin Zhuo didn't like wearing sunscreen. Xie Jingran had to drag him into the house every day before he went out, apply sunscreen on all exposed parts of his body, put a hat on him, and let him wear sunscreen. Lin Zhuo went out, and then Xie Jingran would go to the bathroom first, then go out to find Lin Zhuo and build a beach castle with him.

Lin Zhuo said that building a beach castle may be a bit childish for children, but it is just right for adults like him.

At the end of the show, there was no financial control. Before leaving the villa, the director had already announced that the first place was the Qingqing Coco group. After the show, they could get a seven-day trip to watch the polar aurora sponsored by the Xie Group, and there would be a tour guide. , bodyguards and translators, all expenses are borne by Xie.

Everyone expressed heartfelt congratulations on this, except Song Zhi, who had been absent-minded these days and almost burned down the kitchen several times while cooking. Of course, no one cares about Song Zhi's thoughts. In addition to failing to cook, he sometimes can't control his temper these days, and even said unpleasant words to Coco and Yu Mian, because they are always nervous. Xixi, staring at the figures of Xie Jingran and Lin Zhuo leaning together with a smile on his face, the smile on his face was very bright. These words made them very angry. Yu Mian even bluntly said, "What's wrong with you if I take CP?" Both Xiaoqing and Yang Ting had some opinions on him.

Yu Mian brought her husband on the show just to relax and not care about rewards. Needless to say, Xie Jingran just wanted to complete the task, and Lin Zhuo just wanted to fulfill his brother's wish to let him go out for a walk. It's not bad to get some points. Tao Tao's purpose is to clean up his reputation. He doesn't care if there are rewards or not. Even if he wins, he doesn't have time to go. So in fact, the only ones who care about the rewards are Coco, Xiaoqing and Song Zhi.

In the original plot, Coco and Xiaoqing were supposed to win. They worked hard and saved in every aspect for this reward. But Song Zhi wants to win anyway. He is the protagonist of this world. If he wants this reward plot, he will be pampered to fulfill his wish. He felt that if he could use this reward to go on a date with Xie Jingran, it would save money for Xie Jingran in a sense. After all, Song Zhi would need Xie Jingran to finish things later, but he and Tao Tao had thirty yuan less than Keke and the others. , and there was only the last game left to get funds tomorrow, so he did a very wicked thing.

They were out on location that day, and when they were about to return to the villa after the event, he took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, and saw the right opportunity to secretly kick a stick in front of Coco's feet. Coco was talking to Xiao Qing at the time and didn't pay attention. She stepped on it and slipped. She was still holding the newly won coins in her hand, but all of them flew out. After picking them up, she lost a hundred coins. Because it was her own fault, the program team did not To make up for it, they fell from first place to third place. Coco's eyes were red on the spot, saying that something suddenly appeared under her feet. When the video was played back, basically everyone's upper body was photographed, and the whole body was not photographed. When it comes to Song Zhi's private kick, Coco and the others can only admit that they are unlucky. Coco still won the game the next day, but it was meaningless. She and Xiaoqing left in disappointment, not even staying at the sea view B&B at the back.

Yu Mian couldn't stand Song Zhi's triumphant appearance and called him disgusting in front of him. In exchange, Xie Jingran responded with a cold face. Yu Mian was angry and speechless. He scolded Xie Jingran for not having eyes and there was no need to contact him again in the future. , and then left with Yang Ting. In the end, the program had to end early, and the losses were all borne by Xie. Xie Jingran also provided Tao Tao with additional resources and went to see the Aurora with Song Zhi to cultivate their relationship.

But now, Song Zhizao and Tao Tao are acting separately. They don't even count each other's money. The distance between them and Coco and the others is not even a little bit. Let alone winning, they can't get rid of the last place now.

Lin Zhuo applauded them sincerely when Director Dai announced the first place, not only for their efforts but also for their friendship. Coco only briefly mentioned in the show that she and Xiao Qing had known each other for a long time and didn't say anything else, but Lin Zhuo knew it after watching the plot.

From the beginning, Ke Ke wanted to take Xiao Qing to travel on this show. Because they are bloggers, the two of them went to many places to shoot store tour videos, but because they wanted to record them every time, they couldn't have fun every time. They might even edit the video overnight and not have the energy to go out the next day. nothing. So Coco hopes to have a real opportunity to take Xiaoqing on a trip. There will be no video shooting, no travel records, and no experience of visiting stores, just the two of them, enjoying the trip wholeheartedly and feeling the fun of travel. But in addition to going out at public expense, Xiaoqing refused when Coco proposed traveling. Because Xiaoqing doesn't have a lot of money, in addition to paying off the mortgage, her father is seriously ill and needs to pay expensive treatment fees in the hospital every month. Her mother died in an accident a few years ago. As an only child, her job at that time was neither stable nor high-paying, and it was difficult to afford all the expenses, so she was under great pressure and thought about how to earn more money every day. It was Keke who proposed to Xiaoqing to be her assistant. Keke gave her a high salary every month, so that she could barely keep a balance every month. However, it was still difficult to make money, so Keke started to teach her how to make money. As a blogger, under the influence of Coco and the show, her own account later became somewhat famous.

Keke also said that she can definitely pay for it herself, because her family background is much better than Xiaoqing's. There are several small factories at home, and she has made a lot of money as a blogger, so she can fully afford the expenses of both of them. But Xiaoqing didn't want to. She had already borrowed money from Keke because of her work. She couldn't accept other people's kindness with peace of mind, even if they had known each other for a long time.

So Coco thought about signing up when she saw this show. She discussed with Xiaoqing and hired a reliable caregiver for her father, and then brought Xiaoqing to this show. She worked hard to save money for the reward, and finally, They did it.

This program is essentially a travel program. It basically changes the form of a travel vlog into a live broadcast and invites celebrities to capitalize on their popularity. The original intention is to hope that everyone can find a little fun in the tedious life. So after the program’s major money-saving plan ended, the guests were given a real seaside vacation and rented a B&B. Since there was no script, it all relied on the guests’ true feelings. The program team also prepared casual games for them, and they also had them when they went out. The photographer follows the live broadcast, focusing on leisure and relaxation. Their live broadcasts are also very popular. There are hundreds of thousands of netizens in the live broadcast room every day. The comments are posted very fast, making Doula Dai’s mouth burst into laughter.

......

Lin Zhuo carries a small bucket and covers things with seawater and sand on the beach every day, which is no different from playing with water and mud. 0617, on the other hand, has been playing games like crazy these past few days and basically doesn't show up to talk. Lin Zhuo is still happy and innocent. He enjoyed this time very much, listening to the sound of the waves without thinking about anything, as if the trivial matters in the world had nothing to do with him. Then after a while, a familiar shadow would appear next to him. Lin Zhuo looked up and saw Xie Jingran staring at him tenderly, then squatting down to help him build the castle.

Lin Zhuo thought to himself that sometimes he really didn't understand Xie Jingran. Being separated from the plot was part of it. It had nothing to do with him anyway. He could just follow the plot that would change his own destiny. But when Xie Jingran looked at him from time to time, Lin Zhuo could clearly feel Xie Jingran's fondness and joy that radiated from his bones, as if he was with the person he was passionate about, and his attitude towards himself and others was different. He will also secretly fulfill Lin Zhuo's little wish. What makes Lin Zhuo think Xie Jingran is even more amazing is that sometimes Xie Jingran knows what he wants to do without relying on words, just relying on his expression. He really knows himself too well. Xie Jingran would sometimes show his superior side in front of him, like a peacock spreading its wings, which made Lin Zhuo dumbfounded.

Lin Zhuo really wondered if it was an illusion caused by his own narcissism that made him think that Xie Jingran liked him. Although he seemed to be good-looking, he probably didn't look like someone worthy of falling in love at first sight. In addition, Xie Jingran did indirectly reveal his love to him. The idea seemed to be testing, but he didn't say it directly, and he couldn't directly ask him: Hey, do you like me? Lin Zhuo always felt that he was overthinking. Maybe this was just the way Xie Jingran treated his friends? Or the way to take care of your younger brother?

Lin Zhuo couldn't figure it out. He dug around on the beach with a shovel in a depressed mood. He knew how to describe his current mood. Was it hope or resistance? Where was Xie Jingran? What do you think? Suddenly he cursed in his heart, why does he care so much about Xie Jingran's thoughts, and he doesn't want to fall in love in this small world, or is it because he actually has some thoughts about Xie Jingran, that's why he is so entangled now? It’s all Xie Jingran’s fault! Lin Zhuo looked glumly at Xie Jingran, who was helping him catch the sea water. Although he was indeed the type he liked. He seemed very reliable when he was not in love and was not taken advantage of by Song Zhi. Xie Jingran himself was indeed the same. Very good, but how can such a person have thoughts about himself?

Lin Zhuo sometimes has dark thoughts, full of denial of himself, but he thinks this is not a problem. At this time, Xie Jingran noticed his gaze and came back with a bucket filled with sea water. Under Lin Zhuo's blank gaze, he touched his sand-covered face and chuckled, "Why do you make yourself look like a little cat? No." You said you are going to build a three-story house today, why are you in a daze?" Although this look is very cute, I just like it very much.

Lin Zhuo admitted that he was a little bewitched by this. He turned his head and admitted again that Xie Jingran was really the ideal type of his dreams, especially his face. He felt that he was more unable to resist his face than expected, but it was a pity. Why is he a person in a small world? He doesn't want to have only short-term happiness. It seems that after the show is over, he has to stay as far away from Xie Jingran as possible. At the same time, he also hints that his rapid heartbeat is just an illusion.

Lin Zhuo took a long breath, and then murmured in a low voice that it was nothing. Xie Jingran didn't hear clearly and didn't ask any more questions. He wanted to boil Lin Zhuo in warm water, but found that Lin Zhuo was actually not that resistant. It seemed that he had some hope. He was very patient and didn't have to rush. He knew that Lin Zhuo liked to treat him By shrinking into his shell, he would leave Lin Zhuo with no place to hide. In the end, he would have no choice but to hide in his arms. He would protect Lin Zhuo from the wind and rain. Xie Jingran handed the bucket to Lin Zhuo. Lin Zhuo said that was all for today and he was going back. He stood up and left. Xie Jingran didn't complain, poured the water away, and followed him with the bucket.

Lin Zhuo walked away quickly. He didn't want to have too much contact with Xie Jingran now. He was afraid that he couldn't control his heartbeat, which was now shaking his eardrums.

"Host, I've prepared all the materials for your game account today. You can sell the goods in the warehouse after you go home. The pile is too big. Huh? Why is your face so red?" 0617 suddenly appeared and said Lin Zhuo was even more embarrassed, why did he appear at this time.

"I'm fine, just say a few words."

......

When they returned to the B&B one after another, Tao Tao was quarreling with Song Zhi. The program team interrupted the live broadcast, leaving only a camera to record the incident because Tao Tao's scolding was too dirty and could not be broadcast.

The other four people crowded on the sofa in the living room without speaking. Seeing them pinching each other, Coco even opened a bag of potato chips and was eating them with relish.

Lin Zhuo had a premonition, so he pulled Xie Jingran close to the four people on the sofa and asked what happened.

Yu Mian told him that Song Zhi went to hang clothes on the balcony because the structure of the B&B and the villa were different. The one they rented now only had the first floor, which was a large flat floor, so there was only one balcony. Apart from their personal clothes, they had no other clothes. All the clothes are hung on the large balcony. As a result, there was no room left. Song Zhi touched Tao Tao's clothes and found that they were dry, so he collected Tao Tao's clothes and prepared to send them upstairs. As he passed by the living room, a bracelet fell out of Tao Tao's clothes. There was no problem at first, but Song Zhi Picking it up, she exclaimed that the style was the same as the one that Xiao Xie’s friend mentioned a few days ago. Then Tao Tao came down, and Song Zhi asked in a strange tone how could Tao Tao copy someone else’s design? Then Tao Tao said it wasn't his, and Song Zhi also said why Tao Tao liked to plagiarize so much, copying songs, music, and now even accessories. He was really shameless. Tao Tao couldn't bear it anymore and started swearing on the spot. He used Song Zhi's parents as a radius to greet Song Zhi's relatives and friends. Then they started to quarrel, and Lin Zhuo behind them also knew about it.

Xie Jingran's face darkened when he heard Yu Mian say that the bracelets were of the same style. He took the fake one from Song Zhi's hand and saw that it was indeed exactly the same. Although Xie Jingran didn't feel that he was very familiar with Lin Zhuo at the time, he asked Zhang Bin to design it because he wanted it to be the only one so that he could give it to Lin Zhuo. With his friendship with Lin Xian, it was impossible for him to buy an ordinary design. It has to be unique, but now there is a counterfeit, and it only appeared two years after it was sent out. What it means is self-evident. Xie Jingran's face turned even colder. He looked at Song Zhi and felt that this person's acting skills were still so fake. He could no longer hide the calculating expression on his face, but he still pretended to be aggrieved when he saw him, as if He is really innocent, Tao Tao is the one who does all kinds of evil.

"I will contact the upper management of your company and give a complete account of this matter. I hope they will have a good understanding of what the people under them are doing in private. After all, as a public figure, if you do not spread positive energy to guide others, you will only do things that harm personal ethics. It won't be good for the company's reputation if word gets out about it. If they can't do it, I don't mind helping." Xie Jingran looked at Tao Tao, whose chest was heaving with anger, and nodded to him, knowing that Tao Tao couldn't do this kind of thing. thing, and then looked at Song Zhi with a cold tone. This person had been attracting his attention since the beginning of the show, and the desire in his eyes was undisguised and disgusting.

"Ah, Brother Xie, why are you telling me? I didn't do this." Song Zhi looked at Xie Jingran and tried to sound as natural as possible. But the chill had already entered his brain from the soles of his feet, causing sweat to form on his forehead. He also knew that there might be some way to offend Tao Tao, but it would be the end for him if he offended Xie Jingran.

"Everyone should know who did this. I don't want to know the reason why you did this. If you admit to apologizing to Xiao Zhuo now, I might let you go. Song Zhi, your acting is too fake. , just like before, no progress at all." Xie Jingran looked at him with cold eyes and said disdainfully: "I don't know who you are pretending to be for, and you are not a victim. You have nothing to feel wronged about. , Zhang Bin did talk about the design of this bracelet in front of everyone present, but did not show the picture. How could Tao Tao make it exactly the same? He has never seen the bracelet look like. I know where you saw it. , my WeChat circle of friends, but you may not have thought that Tao Tao does not have my WeChat account at all, how could he make it look exactly the same based on his imagination, only you, Song Zhi, you are really brainless." Xie Jingran said this as if Song Zhi was sentenced to death. He never thought that Tao Tao didn't add Xie Jingran's WeChat account, because on the first day of recording the show, everyone exchanged WeChat accounts. Even Coco and Xiaoqing were at odds with Xie Jingran. People who were not with him all added Xie Jingran's WeChat account, but Tao Tao didn't, so he just relied on Tao Tao.

Song Zhi not only did not expect that Tao Tao did not include Xie Jingran, but also did not expect that he did not include Lin Zhuo. After all, Tao Tao personally felt that he was not as thick-skinned as Song Zhi. Moreover, Tao Tao has always been very self-aware of himself. He knows that he cannot climb up to the big Buddha like Xie Jingran, and it is useless to add him, so it is enough to maintain a superficial friendship. There is no chance that they will cross paths after the show, and Lin Zhuo is Xie Jingran’s friend. , it should be the child of the Lin family who is a family friend of the Xie family. He heard the financial backer said that he wanted to discuss business with Lin Xian but failed to do so. If he can offend the Lin family, he will not cause trouble to his sponsor. After all, he still needs to rely on him to survive. And although Lin Zhuo usually looks very Buddhist and feels very gentle and peaceful, Tao Tao felt Lin Zhuo's indifference and felt that he actually didn't care much about anything. As long as it didn't have anything to do with himself, he even He could keep that expression all day long, and it looked terribly fake, so Tao Tao didn't dare to add his contact information when he and Coco and the others were exchanging WeChat messages.

Now Tao Tao is extremely grateful that he was timid at that time and did not dare to come forward and shamelessly say add WeChat. Otherwise, without evidence, it fell out of his clothes. It would be difficult for him to explain clearly. In case he was thought to be He had thoughts about Xie Jingran, and he was afraid that he didn't know how he died.

Suddenly, Tao Tao seemed to remember something, and rushed up to Song Zhi and punched him: "Damn it, I said you took something from your assistant at that time. I thought you were asking him to open a small stove, but it turned out that you were Is it the imitation you took from him? You're a bitch, you're a bastard, you want to frame me, I can't make it easy for you, just wait!" He punched Song Zhi and knocked him to the ground. Jie Qi even kicked Song Zhi, and then went upstairs angrily. This was Song Zhi seeking death and not blaming himself.

Xie Jingran didn't want to look at him, so he called Xiaotong from next door and asked him to handle it. He also called Song Zhi's assistant. Xie Jingran put the fake product into his pocket. He wanted to destroy it himself. Of course, the thing he gave to Lin Zhuo had to be unique. Others would not do what Song Zhi did and put the fake product on his own head and then take out his mobile phone. He deleted Song Zhi and pulled Lin Zhuo to sit on another sofa. He was in a very bad mood now. He hugged Lin Zhuo and refused to let go. He blamed himself for not caring at the time and expressed his feelings casually. His blessings were even given to Lin Zhuo. Xian also acted casually at Xian's request, allowing people with evil intentions like Song Zhi to take advantage of the loophole. What could Lin Zhuo do? He could only let him hold him. He collapsed in Xie Jingran's arms. The man's hug was a little tight and he felt a little hurt.

Lin Zhuo touched Xie Jingran's head by the way. Yes, he was not so blind this time and helped Song Zhi, which is worthy of praise.

Everyone ignored Xie Jingran, who was sulking at himself, and then started talking happily, as if nothing had happened just now. No one cared about Song Zhi lying on the ground, and even the program team didn't want to talk to him. The video they just recorded was still... It depends on what Xie Jingran wants to do.

Song Zhi was lying on the ground, his heart felt colder than the floor, and he wished he could lose consciousness now, otherwise it would be better for him to die now. He stared blankly at the ceiling, with tears streaming down his face. He knew that everything was over, whether it was himself or his career, just like a flash in the pan, everything would be gone.
