I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 295 - 289: Chen Xixi: My Eyes Are Only on the Task, Not on Emotions!
Chapter 295: Chapter 289: Chen Xixi: My Eyes Are Only on the Task, Not on Emotions!
They had been behind him all the time, so how did they suddenly get in front of him for breakfast?!
Zheng He initially thought he was seeing things due to tiredness.
So he rubbed his eyes and looked again, Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan were still sitting there, appearing completely relaxed, not at all looking tired.
Their tired appearance was a world apart from them.
Hu Yun dumbfoundedly reached out and touched Zheng He, incredulously asking: "Is that Chen Xixi sitting there in front?"
Was she hallucinating from exhaustion?
How did the person who had been behind her suddenly appear in front of her?!
[Damn?! How did Chen Xixi and President Zhou get up here? It seems like we didn’t see Chen Xixi and President Zhou climb the mountain at all?]
[I thought Chen Xixi was not planning to win!]
[Chen Xixi not planning to win? How could that be?! With Chen Xixi’s personality, acting out of the ordinary is a prelude to her pulling a big move!]
[Zheng He and Hu Yun are both dumbfounded hahaha! The two are dead tired, and suddenly they are overtaken by the team that was always behind. They must be doubting their lives now!]
[How exactly did Chen Xixi and President Zhou come up here?! If anyone in Chen Xixi and President Zhou’s live stream room, please explain to me!]
Zheng He now has no time to deal with Hu Yun, his head buzzing and feeling bewildered.
He quickly walked up to Chen Xixi and with a shocked look that moved between Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan, finally settled on Chen Xixi, frowning and asking, "How, how did you guys climb up here?!"
Chen Xixi, after finishing her last dumpling, pulled out a napkin to wipe her mouth, and said nonchalantly: "Took the cable car."
Just moments after she and Zhou Jinyuan walked through the main entrance, she saw the cable car sign and led Zhou Jinyuan towards the cable car.
Having a cable car to ride, why suffer? She indeed likes to save money, but she prefers to save without suffering when possible.
In short, saving money is fine, but if there’s a choice, she prefers luxury, as she doesn’t have a masochistic tendency.
"Took the cable car?!" Zheng He was even more bewildered, "Where did you get the money from?"
Chen Xixi replied lightly, "We earned it ourselves."
Hu Yun, following behind Zheng He, heard Chen Xixi’s words and said with disbelief: "You’re lying! The money we earned yesterday was all handed over, how could you possibly still have money?"
Zheng He suddenly turned to look at Zhou Jinyuan, who was leisurely enjoying his breakfast, opened his mouth, his eyes filled with doubt and resentment, but finally forced to swallow his words under the unseen pressure of the big shot.
Now he suspected that Chen Xixi got a backdoor favor from the program team through Zhou Jinyuan, allowing them to pay for the cable car.
Otherwise, how could Chen Xixi suddenly have money?
But he didn’t dare to say this in front of Zhou Jinyuan, it was too offensive, yet he still couldn’t stand it!
"Believe it or not." Chen Xixi couldn’t be bothered to explain.
At this moment, Qian Yue also came over, surprised looking at Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan, "Where did you get the money?"
Chen Xixi calmly answered, "Earned it by selling toys yesterday."
Qian Yue was shocked again, "You didn’t hand it all in?"
Chen Xixi really knew how to keep personal savings!
Hu Yun also spoke up, "She took the cable car up here, should that count as coming first?"
Chen Xixi looked unfazedly at Qian Yue and Hu Yun, "The money we earned by ourselves, why should we hand it all in? Besides, the program group never said all earnings had to be handed in, only to submit it for sorting the results, nor did they specify that we couldn’t spend money on a cable car."
That really wasn’t specified.
The program group and other guests suddenly had no reason to say anything.
Zheng He immediately understood when he heard this. It turned out that it wasn’t Chen Xixi who relied on Zhou Jinyuan to pull strings, but Zhou Jinyuan mooched off Chen Xixi’s secret stash of money!
Chen Xixi really is as talented as always; he underestimated her because of the two-dollar difference yesterday.
[Chen Xixi is really something! The amount of money she submitted was just enough to win, and she kept the extra to spend herself, really not wasting every penny haha!]
[So that’s how she got her money, amazing haha!]
[I feel like if it were any other honest person, they would have submitted all the money.]
The other Guests, exhausted and panting, looked at Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan effortlessly securing ten points and instantly felt a mix of envy and jealousy.
They admired Chen Xixi for having money to take a cable car and envied her for getting another ten points.
Chen Xixi is now literally the points queen of the show, she almost always comes back with maximum points in any point-winning rounds!
Behind the scenes at the production team, the assistant director watching through the equipment saw Chen Xixi secretly keeping some money and almost had a heart attack!
He originally wanted the Guests to earn money and submit it to buy afternoon tea for the production team, but with Chen Xixi doing this, now everyone who earns money will definitely not honestly submit it!
He quickly picked up his phone and called Qian Yue, instructing, "Don’t let them earn money anymore, arrange other activities!"
If every Guest has money, then who would be winning points?
The whole game rules would be ruined!
He had to quickly change the strategy!
On the variety show scene. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Originally, the working segment on the mountaintop was directly canceled by Qian Yue, replaced by searching for the most beautiful scenic spots.
Qian Yue took out ten photos that had been cut to one quarter of their size, "Each of you choose a photo, find the complete filming location on the photo, and you can earn three points!"
Only a quarter of the information is given, whether or not they can find the complete location depends on the Guests’ abilities.
To complete the task quickly, all group Guests decided unanimously to split up to search.
Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan decided to do the same, but after Zheng He and the others left, she pulled Han Qianyi and Wan Chen aside and said, "I’ll create a group chat, we four post our photos there.
If we come across a place that seems like a scenic checkpoint, we’ll pull it up and check. If it is one of ours, help by taking a picture and send it to the group chat, then those who found their spots help others to continue searching; this way we can complete the task faster."
There was no time limit for this show segment, points were allotted upon task completion, but in the sweltering heat, nobody wanted to roam the mountain looking for scenic spots; finishing the task earlier and getting home to rest was indeed more comfortable.
[Goodness, with this segment rule, the production team wants to let everyone roam around the scenic checkpoints in groups to increase personal connections huh? They’re really serious about completing the tasks!]
[Chen Xixi: In my eyes, there are only tasks, no friendships!]
[Chen Xixi’s idea is great, it’ll be much faster than them searching individually!]
The other three had no objections, after all, Chen Xixi’s ability to execute tasks was evident, and indeed, this method was much better.
After setting up the group, everyone posted their photos, and then they started following the directions on the scenic area’s signs.
Before leaving, Zhou Jinyuan suddenly stopped Chen Xixi, cautioning, "The paths on the mountain are tough to navigate, be careful, and call if anything."
Many scenic checkpoints are steep places, tiring and difficult to traverse.
Chen Xixi’s lips curved into a smile, she cared back, "Okay, you too."
As she spoke, she quickly walked towards the west.
Not long after she left, she saw Xu Mu sitting on the ground in pain, grimacing.
Xu Mu... with the surname Xu, knows Zhou Jinyuan...
She suddenly became very sensitive to people with the surname Xu.
She pursed her lips and walked towards Xu Mu.
