Chapter 59 - 59: Culture Is a Must-have
Meng Chuyuan had never caught a mantis shrimp before. She wanted to try something new.
She did not see any mantis shrimps the first time she extracted the sand and stones. Immediately after, Meng Chuyuan went to another hole and tried again.
Lu Jinsen stood at the side and watched Meng Chuyuan play. He did not seem to think that she could catch the mantis shrimps.
After all, he had only managed to get four mantis shrimps after so long. He did not know how long Meng Chuyuan would take to catch another two.
However, not long after Lu Jinsen’s thoughts passed through his head, Meng Chuyuan brought him an unexpected surprise.
Lu Jinsen happened to lower his eyes. A mantis shrimp that was about to escape was exposed in his line of sight. He was so shocked that his pupils dilated.
He asked in surprise, “It didn’t run out of the bucket, did it?”
[I’m dying of laughter. Young Master would rather believe that this mantis shrimp came out of a bucket than admit that Sister Meng caught it.]
[Sister Meng: I would really like to thank you.]
[Young Master is stunned again, hahahaha.]
[Every day is like meeting Sister Meng for the first time. There are different surprises every day.]
Meng Chuyuan saw him standing there in a daze and frowned. “What are you mumbling about? Hurry up and catch it, or it will run away.”
Lu Jinsen bent down to pick up the mantis shrimp on the ground and threw it into the bucket.
What shocked Lu Jinsen even more was that Meng Chuyuan had dug out two mantis shrimps from the same place.
Lu Jinsen followed behind her to pick up the prawns. He could not help but sigh. “Aren’t you too lucky?”
In just a short while, Meng Chuyuan had caught three mantis shrimps.
Faced with Lu Jinsen’s praise, she said without any modesty, “Could it be possible that my luck is off the charts because you’re acting as a foil for me?” Lu Jinsen:
After catching the mantis shrimps, everyone began to fish and catch crabs in the sea. Coincidentally, the two special guests had also arrived at the recording studio.
The two guests for this episode were boys. One was a new generation actor called Luo Yunzhou, and the other was an eSports player called Ting Jiu.
Luo Yunzhou had come to participate in the variety show to promote his new movie. Ting Jiu had been arranged by the investors to participate in the show because the production team planned to work with the mobile game app next and needed to insert their advertisement.
In order to obtain more and better sponsorship, the production team was still working hard.
As soon as he appeared, he called out to Liao Jiake, “Second Sister.”
This was because he had filmed with Liao Jiake before, and the two of them happened to be acting as siblings in the drama. After so many years, the two of them were in the same frame again, and it immediately gave the audience a wave of memories.
When Liao Jiake saw her old friend, she was surprised and delighted. “Are you here to film the variety show too?”
“Yeah.”
[Luo Yunzhou’s ‘second sister’ broke my defense. Boohoo.]
[I didn’t expect to see Brother Yunzhou and Ke Ke in the same shot again. The memories are really making me emotional.]
[I remember that Luo Yunzhou and Best Actor Xu also worked together last year. This damn fate.]
[I didn’t expect Ting Jiu to also participate in a variety show.]
[I heard that Ting Jiu specially put down his training to film the variety show in order to meet his idol. I wonder who his idol is.]
Ting Jiu was not old, he was just over 20 years old and was good at playing computer games. He had participated in many competitions and obtained decent achievements. More importantly, not only was he good at games, but he was also a top student.
Ting Jiu greeted the guests politely, and finally he walked towards Meng
Chuyuan and said gently, “Sister Chuyuan.”
When Lu Jinsen heard this, he was quite surprised. He did not expect Ting Jiu, who looked so reserved, to take the initiative to greet Meng Chuyuan.
When Meng Chuyuan heard this, she raised her head and glanced at Ting jiu.
She replied bluntly, “Little Jiu?”
“It’s me.” Ting Jiu smiled when he saw that she recognized him. [F*ck!! No way? Sister Meng and Ting Jiu know each other?]
[They know each other? Is this a broken dimension?]
[Wuwuwu, Sister Meng calls Little Jiu so gently. It feels like they’ve known each other for a long time.]
[Young Master’s dumbfounded expression is very similar to mine.]
Lu Jinsen frowned. His gaze shifted between Meng Chuyuan and Ting Jiu. “Are you two very close?”
Meng Chuyuan replied casually, “I guess so.”
“I played games with Sister Chuyuan twice. Coincidentally, we’re from the same school.”
Unfortunately, Meng Chuyuan had graduated when Ting Jiu entered university.
After Lu Jinsen heard this, his eyes were filled with shock again, and his expression became extremely rich.
He looked at Ting Jiu and asked in disbelief, “She made it to the same university as you?”
“What are you saying?” Meng Chuyuan heard Lu Jinsen’s doubts and replied unhappily, “Are you looking down on me?”
Because she felt that it didn’t matter if she didn’t have money, but she had to be cultured.
[Oh my god, I didn’t expect Sister Meng to be from the same university as Ting
Jiu.]
[Sister Meng looks young, but her education level should be quite high.
Boohoo.]
[I heard that the university Ting Jiu goes to now is quite difficult to get into.
The cutoff score is quite high. It seems that Sister Meng is hiding something.]
[From the looks of it, Sister Meng must have gotten married after graduating from university.]
[I love Sister Meng even more now that I know she’s a top student.]
The two special guests participated in the recording of the variety show and happened to form a team. As soon as they landed and rushed over, they were already doing missions with the three teams of permanent guests. They had yet to see their residences.
Luo Yunzhou and Ting Jiu’s viewer traffic was not to be underestimated. They had just arrived and had already given the production team a wave of popularity. Coupled with the fact that Meng Chuyuan and Ting Jiu unexpectedly knew each other, the audience’s favorable impression of Meng Chuyuan deepened once again.
Although Ting Jiu and Luo Yunzhou formed a team, he did not treat Meng Chuyuan as an outsider at all.
“Sister Chuyuan, I just caught a big crab under the reef.” Ting Jiu took out the big crab he had caught and shared it with Meng Chuyuan. In the end, he even gave the crab to Meng Chuyuan.
“I’ll catch it myself later.” Meng Chuyuan wanted to refuse but failed, so she was forced to accept it.
Ting Jiu said, “I still have sea urchins here. Do you want them?”
“No need. I have some here too.”
Lu Jinsen watched from the side. He felt that the two of them were in the same group and that he was an outsider.
[Blindly guessing from Young Master’s expression, he seems unhappy again.
Hahaha.]
[Student Ting Jiu, please stop emitting your charm and focus on your mission!!]
[I think he can’t wait to give everything he has to Sister Meng, hahahaha.]
[Ting Jiu, this silly child. Doesn’t he know that the production team will weigh him later? Your own team will fall behind later.]
“Then tell me if you need anything later.” Seeing that Meng Chuyuan did not lack anything, he could only leave with the bucket tentatively.
Lu Jinsen looked down at Meng Chuyuan after he walked away. He said sarcastically, “I didn’t know that this junior of yours was so concerned about you..”
