Chapter 236 The 'Heroic Figure' of Riding a Flying Pig
Since she had already broken ties with Tu Sibo, Yuan Yangyang showed him no mercy and spoke without any restraint.
Yuan Si'an coughed lightly, concealing the slight chuckle at the corner of his mouth.
He suddenly realized that having a younger sister who always protects him is quite nice; she's practically his internet mouthpiece.
Many things that he couldn't say, Yuan Yangyang naively said, and the effect was even better.
After all, Yuan Yangyang is young and there is no competitive relationship between her and the other party.
Tu Sibao snorted through his nose, said nothing, and returned to his mud-brick house with a sour face.
Fortunately, the production team was still humane. Although the show needed to be entertaining, they took into account the special status of the guests.
Even in a simple mud-brick house, there is still a makeshift shower room.
This makes it convenient for these celebrities, who value their appearance more than life itself, to wash and shower.
The assistant director breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Tu Sibao plunge into the bathroom.
It's good that he didn't lose his temper.
When Yuan Yangyang was face-to-face with Tu Sibo and unleashed her ultimate move, the assistant director's heart was in his throat.
They were afraid that the two might disagree and actually start fighting.
Fortunately, there was no harm.
"Senior Yu, I didn't expect you to be back so soon," Yuan Si'an said first.
After all, looking at the two people in front of them, their faces were not red and their breaths were not out of breath, so picking apples was obviously not an effort for them.
He had just checked and found that the task of picking apples was paid based on the amount of work done, with a reward of five yuan per basket of apples.
From now on, the ingredients for every meal will have to be bought with money.
He thought these two would be the last to return.
Yu Junliang, seemingly lost in thought, glanced at Qi Cheng, who had been silent since returning, a hint of helpless smile flashing in his eyes.
"I was a little tired, so I came back. Anyway, I should have earned enough for dinner."
Although Yuan Si'an found it a bit strange, he didn't think much of it and just nodded to show that he understood.
Little did they know, the comments section was already buzzing with laughter.
[Yu Junliang: We can't exactly say that Qi Cheng was being pestered and stopped doing his mission, so he ran back in fear!]
[Qi Cheng hasn't said a word since he came back. Could it be that he's still traumatized by that woman Su Mingyue? I feel so sorry for him!]
[Seriously, who found this slut Su Mingyue? This is practically harassment! Poor Qi Cheng!]
Meanwhile, Su Mingyue, who was being heavily criticized by netizens, was on her way back to the pig farm.
All the way, he was cursing in his heart, cursing Qi Cheng for not knowing how to cherish women and for being such a blockhead.
The story begins from the very beginning.
Su Mingyue and Lin Yan were led to the village's pig farm, where their task was to clean the pigsties.
The pig farm wasn't very big, with a dozen or so pig pens. Considering that Su Mingyue and her friend were two girls...
The production team did not require them to clean all the pigsties, but instead charged them fifty yuan to clean one pigsty.
This price is quite high compared to other jobs.
I feel that this price includes compensation for emotional distress, since the stench is truly awful.
The staff herded the pigs into the fence gate next to them, explained the precautions, and then left.
They only need to clean the area outside the fence gate.
The process is not complicated; you just need to shovel away the pig manure and wash the pigpen clean with a water gun.
From the very beginning, Su Mingyue had no intention of cleaning herself, and she didn't pay attention when the staff explained the details.
She wanted to find other male guests to help her, as suggested by the system.
Her first target, of course, was Qi Cheng, who had been given a strategy guide by the system.
Although she couldn't see anything commendable about Qi Cheng besides his good looks.
However, he is one of only two strategy missions issued by the system so far.
The other one was Yan Zizhuo, whom she had almost completely forgotten about.
Considering Yan Zizhuo's extraordinary background and wealth, even though Su Mingyue didn't inquire about Qi Cheng's specific identity from the system, she knew that the person the system had its eye on was definitely not simple.
Before leaving, Su Mingyue used the excuse that each of them would earn more money by working independently to send Lin Yan to the other end of the pigsty, which was the furthest away from her.
They euphemistically say, "I'll start from this end, and you start from the other end. The more we do, the closer we'll get, and the more accomplished we'll feel."
In Lin Yan's opinion, this reason was far-fetched, after all, they were doing a program, not just doing voluntary work.
The show needs to be engaging and generate buzz.
It's more interesting when two people work together, talk, and chat.
She didn't think that netizens were actually there to watch them work.
However, since Su Mingyue has said so, she will not refuse.
Although she didn't know what Su Mingyue was planning, she knew how to play dumb.
She no longer cares about how much screen time or popularity she gets; she just hopes that when Su Mingyue acts recklessly, she can stay away, protect herself, and avoid being affected.
Lin Yan immediately agreed to Su Mingyue's suggestion, ran to the other end of the pigpen, the one furthest from Su Mingyue, and started cleaning it herself.
After Lin Yan left, Su Mingyue glanced at the stinking pigsty and, unable to stay any longer, immediately turned and left.
After finding out Qi Cheng's location, Su Mingyue headed straight for her target.
However, the ideal is very full and the reality is very skinny.
She tried everything, from the kind words to the harsh ones, but Qi Cheng remained unmoved.
They only said they had their own mission, resolutely refusing to offer help, and changing missions was out of the question.
Finally, Su Mingyue even resorted to her feminine charms, feigning weakness and leaning towards Qi Cheng.
But Qi Cheng, that blockhead, not only showed no mercy, but also dodged away with a look of terror on his face.
Seeing the other person jump three feet high, treating her like a plague, Su Mingyue's face immediately turned extremely ugly.
Before Su Mingyue could think of any other solutions, Qi Cheng couldn't wait any longer.
He abandoned the task, left Su Mingyue there, and came back on his own.
Seeing this, Yu Junliang could only sigh inwardly and followed him back.
He could actually continue.
However, if he really did the task himself, not to mention whether Qi Cheng would feel bad about it, at the very least, given his age of fifty, netizens would probably criticize Qi Cheng to death.
Su Mingyue was dumbfounded as she looked at the orchard that had become empty in the blink of an eye.
On the way back, I cursed Qi Cheng in my heart the whole way.
[System, Qi Cheng is completely unresponsive, like a block of wood. Can I find someone else to seduce?]
Thinking of how Qi Cheng had been so unyielding earlier, Su Mingyue felt somewhat discouraged.
The world is so big, she doesn't necessarily have to be Qi Cheng. There are plenty of men she can come to at the drop of a hat, why should she hang herself on one tree?
System: [Qi Cheng's luck is extraordinary; he is an important figure in this small world. Winning him over will greatly help your ultimate mission.]
Su Mingyue: [Alright, I'll reluctantly give it another try! What's Qi Cheng's current favorability rating?]
System: [Favorability -20]
Su Mingyue was immediately disheartened, saying in disbelief, "[There are actually negative numbers?]"
She had won the favor of many people, but she had never encountered a negative number before, and this was the first time she had ever heard of such a thing as a negative number.
Su Mingyue felt somewhat discouraged, as if the future held no promise.
The system offered words of comfort: [According to the plot, Qi Cheng will fall down the hillside in a couple of days and be missing for half a day. Host, please seize this opportunity; this is the best time to increase your favorability.]
Su Mingyue's eyes immediately lit up, and she was filled with fighting spirit.
But when she returned to the pig farm and saw the piles of manure waiting to be cleaned up, Su Mingyue's good mood vanished immediately, her face fell, and she looked dejected.
Seeing the live-streaming camera nearby, he finally mustered his energy and started scratching the ground with a shovel, just to get by.
I worked on it for a few minutes, but then I couldn't continue.
Her arms ached, and the pungent smell lingering in her nose gave her a splitting headache.
Every second spent in the pigsty was torture.
Su Mingyue could no longer hold on. In a fit of pique, she threw the shovel aside and turned to leave.
He complained, "I'm not doing it anymore. Let whoever wants to do it do it. Who came up with this despicable idea? Are they just trying to make things difficult for people?"
Su Mingyue turned to walk out, but did not notice that the shovel she threw hit the gate, and the bolt on the gate immediately opened.
The gate creaked open, and the five or six pigs inside rushed out in a swarm.
One of them was facing Su Mingyue's direction, running almost right next to her body, and even touching her hand.
"Ah!" Su Mingyue was startled and screamed, her body jerking backward.
Her movements were so exaggerated that her foot, clad in a thick-heeled leather shoe, landed squarely on a pig's trotter.
"Screech!" A heart-wrenching scream emanated from the pig's mouth, piercing the sky.
Like a domino effect, the pigs in the sty were thrown into chaos, all of them panicking and starting to run amok.
Su Mingyue screamed and ran towards the exit of the pigsty.
Under the camera's view, Su Mingyue panicked and squeezed together with the pig as they fled.
When they finally reached the exit, they found two pigs blocking the way.
For some reason, Su Mingyue took a step and climbed onto the pig's back, attempting to step over it.
The pig was already frightened, and Su Mingyue's actions made it even more frightened and it fled in panic.
Carrying Su Mingyue on its back, it sped off like an arrow released from a bow.
"Ah!" Su Mingyue screamed repeatedly, fearing she would be thrown off, she gripped the pig bristles even tighter.
The pig squealed in pain and ran even faster.
Because there were cameras installed in the pigsty, the cameraman was resting outside when he saw this thrilling scene.
Out of professional habit, I grabbed the camera and chased after them.
He kept offering suggestions, "Jump down, come down quickly!"
Su Mingyue couldn't hear anything; her screams, terror, and the squeals of pigs mingled together.
It's thrilling yet also a bit funny.
The director had already seen this scene on camera and immediately contacted the staff at the pig farm and notified the village chief, hoping they could come over as soon as possible to provide assistance.
Director Wang and the entire crew rushed over immediately.
Yuan Yangyang and the other three groups also came after learning about the accident.
From a distance, Yuan Yangyang could see Su Mingyue riding a pig with her 'heroic and dashing' appearance.
If she could change the look of terror on her face, shout a slogan or something, and add some inspiring music, Yuan Yangyang felt that this scene could also be used on a battlefield where people are bravely fighting the enemy.
If these were made into emojis, they would definitely become a nationwide sensation.
But Su Mingyue's scream ruined everything.
The villagers were notified and quickly arrived with their tools.
In the end, a dozen or so people worked together to stop the big fat pig that was running rampant in the street with ropes. The scene was quite spectacular.
The pig's hooves were tangled in ropes and it couldn't break free, but its momentum remained.
Yuan Yangyang saw Su Mingyue being flung away like an arrow breaking free of its restraints.
Yuan Yangyang instinctively covered her eyes, unable to bear watching any longer.
There was a loud "thump!" and Yuan Yangyang felt the ground tremble.
Su Mingyue's screams stopped abruptly.
When Yuan Yangyang opened her eyes again, she saw Director Wang and the rest of the crew hurriedly carrying the unconscious Su Mingyue up.
They rushed to get him to the hospital.
Su Mingyue let out a soft moan and opened her eyes.
Director Wang was the first to respond, anxiously asking, "Where do you feel unwell? Don't worry, I'll have someone take you to the hospital right now."
"No!" Su Mingyue stopped Director Wang, saying weakly, "I'm fine, I can still manage."
Seeing that Director Wang was not listening to her at all, Su Mingyue broke free from the crowd and immediately stood up.
"Look, I'm fine, I really don't need to go to the hospital, I can still fight!"
Director Wang looked at the energetic Su Mingyue and said, "You seem to be physically fine, but are you sure you don't want to get your head checked? Don't let it get damaged."
Yuan Yangyang burst out laughing.
To be honest, Su Mingyue really does look like she's had a brain injury right now.
Seeing Su Mingyue's energetic and lively appearance, Yuan Yangyang was genuinely envious.
[As expected of the female lead, she fell three meters and wasn't hurt at all! Is this what it means to be a female lead pampered by this small world?! You could at least get a scratch!]
Su Mingyue only breathed a sigh of relief after Director Wang gave up on taking her to the hospital.
The system complained in my mind, "[To save the host, I spent all my points. The host needs to work harder, otherwise, without points, I won't be able to help you in this situation again.]"
Su Mingyue: ...
He then said, "[Don't worry, the reason I insisted on staying is to win over Qi Cheng and gain his favor. Don't worry, the points will be there soon.]"
Because of this unexpected turn of events, Director Wang was worried about further problems and called Lin Yan back, who was still working on the task.
This means the task of cleaning the pigsty is now complete and no further work is needed.
When Lin Yan came out, she didn't know what had happened.
Only after the staff explained it to her did she twitch her lips and indicate that she understood.
She was even more relieved that she had agreed to Su Mingyue's suggestion; otherwise, although she wouldn't have been able to ride the pig at breakneck speed, she might have been knocked away by it.
After everyone returned to the director's courtyard, the director's team discussed and decided to pay Su Mingyue and Lin Yan for cleaning half of the pigsty, as if the task had been completed.
No one objected; after all, they had already ridden the pig, so the extra amount could be considered compensation for emotional distress.
They even got to watch the flying pig performance for free, without paying for tickets.
