Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country
Chapter 508 - 506: Familiar Stranger
Sometimes plans just can’t keep up with changes.
The original intention was to have some fun in Hangzhou, but Wang Fan was speechless to find that Hangzhou truly lived up to its reputation as a tourist hub, where you see more people than scenery wherever you go.
At any famous attraction, it’s just a crowd of people jostling each other. Where’s the joy in that kind of tourism?
Change of plans!
Just as Wang Fan was considering where to go next, a cheerful-looking man in his thirties suddenly approached with a camera in hand.
Sanxin looked at the tall guy in front of him, feeling a bit familiar, as if he’d seen him somewhere before, but he couldn’t quite place him.
After all, it’s indeed harder to recognize someone with a mask on, but that didn’t stop him from doing a street challenge.
With a smile on his face, he asked, "Excuse me, would you like to do a street challenge: 100 bucks or experience the joy of being a boy?"
Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian were taken aback: "What do you mean?"
Sanxin explained, "You can either just take this 100 bucks, or choose to follow me to experience the joy of being a boy for about two or three days, and I’ll cover all expenses during that period."
Once he explained, Wang Fan understood and declined, "No need, I’m quite happy every day."
Sanxin quickly said, "Rest assured, I’m not a scammer. This is my Weibo and short video account, and I have a lot of followers."
When he first started this challenge, many people were indeed afraid of being scammed, and he understood their concerns.
Wang Fan lifted the hand holding Zhuo Qianqian’s, smiled, and said, "I really am quite happy every day."
Sanxin sighed helplessly, "Alright, then you can choose to take this 100 bucks."
Wang Fan shook his head, "I’m not short on money either, you should find someone else."
Sanxin was a little surprised, did he just randomly pick someone who’s a rich second generation? 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
Always happy and not short on money, what kind of status is that?
He was actually quite interested in Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian, as attractive couples naturally attract traffic, and he wouldn’t even need to think much about locations or plot arrangements.
Just as he turned to leave, he suddenly heard the young man call out to him, "Hold on a minute."
Sanxin was overjoyed, could it be that they’ve changed their minds?
He quickly turned back and asked, "Have you changed your mind?"
Wang Fan shook his head, "No, I was just thinking, you must have visited many places for these challenges, right? So, I wanted to ask if there are any particularly interesting places you’ve been to recently. I’d like to take my girlfriend for some fun."
Sanxin felt a bit disappointed but still thought for a moment and said, "If you’re asking about fun places I’ve been to recently, it’d have to be the rafting in Guizhou. Drifting in the rapids for two or three hours was exhilarating even just thinking about it."
Guizhou? Rafting for two or three hours?
Wang Fan’s eyes lit up; he was quite interested in this. He used to bind little wooden rafts with popsicle sticks for fun whenever he had free time.
Looking over at Zhuo Qianqian, without having to ask, he knew she was definitely interested just by the way her eyes lit up.
"Thank you."
Sanxin nodded, "Oh, by the way, I filmed the two of you just now. I plan to make it into a short video. Although you were wearing masks, I still need to ask if you’re comfortable being on camera. If not, I’ll cut out the earlier part."
Wang Fan had a good impression of this guy doing challenges; he looked neat and polite, and most importantly, he felt like he’d seen him somewhere before.
He simply took off his mask, smiled at the camera, and said, "No problem, we’re not celebrities or anything."
Zhuo Qianqian also took off her mask and waved.
Sanxin was very pleased; even though they refused his challenge, he had a good feeling about this couple.
"Thank you, thank you, I won’t disturb you two any longer."
With that, he turned away cheerfully.
Just as he guessed, with a handsome man and a beautiful woman, the start of the short video could definitely pull in a lot of views.
He didn’t start this account with the intention of making money; although his previous job wasn’t extraordinarily lucrative, it was well above a moderately comfortable level for sure.
But after working tirelessly day and night for over ten years, he found it increasingly uninteresting, so he just quit his job at the state-owned enterprise and ventured into self-media.
But why did those two seem so familiar?
"Excuse me, 100 bucks or experience the joy of being a boy?"
"Hey, hey, are you Sanxin? I’m a fan of yours!"
When Sanxin asked his opening lines, he was still thinking about who those two people were just now.
Until a voice full of surprise reached his ears, pulling him back to reality.
As he came to his senses, he immediately realized who they were.
"Whoa! Boss Wang and the lady boss!"
Right now, Sanxin just really wanted to do one thing, which was to turn around and rush back to catch up with them in his GTR!
Not to mention the top tier traffic Boss Wang has, just catching up to have a meal with him would be great.
After all, he’s been drooling over the amazing food made by the ultimate outdoor gourmet boss for a long time.
"I’m free, I’m free, let’s go now!"
It’s apparent that the person he interviewed this time is really a fan of Sanxin’s, his voice trembling with excitement.
Sanxin excitedly grabbed the fan’s hand, "Are you sure you have time?"
"Absolutely, we can head out right now, I want to..."
Sanxin quickly interrupted him, "Listen to me, listen to me, I have a fantastic idea. How about for this episode, I take you to have fun and chase after Boss Wang?"
The young man was startled, "Boss Wang? Which Boss Wang?"
Sanxin said excitedly, "Boss Wang! The ultimate outdoor food boss, how about we chase him this episode?"
The young man got excited too, "Sure, I mostly watch Boss Wang and you. I never thought I’d bump into both of you, but he didn’t mention his next stop. Do you know where to find him?"
Sanxin said, "There’s a 99% chance he’s headed to Guizhou. I’ll take you to experience that rafting in Guizhou, and maybe we’ll bump into Boss Wang."
...
As Wang Fan walked, he suddenly patted his head, finally realizing who that person was.
Wasn’t that the sunny brother from the children’s channel he loved watching as a kid?
Just a bit older and a tad chubbier now, which is why he didn’t recognize him at first glance.
Wang Fan and Zhuo Qianqian had already planned to go to Guizhou for this rafting trip, and with this connection, there was no way they could skip it now.
Zhuo Qianqian had started searching for things to do in Guizhou. Traveling that far, they couldn’t just go for one rafting trip. The Jiangsu trip lacked proper planning, which resulted in a dull experience, and they certainly couldn’t make the same mistake this time.
With just one search, they found out there are indeed quite a few fun places in Guizhou.
Besides rafting, there’s Anshun’s stone forest, "the most beautiful scar on Earth," Ziyun Getu River, and more. It’s just a matter of whether Boss Wang plans to set up a stall and where he’ll do it.
