The Idol Group Pet Became A Final Boss! Chapter 38 - Change of Tide 1

Chapter 38 - Change of Tide 1

The next second—

All the staff present unanimously nodded their heads in agreement.

Yan Nai: "..."

Everyone knew that the seafood congee from earlier was just an appetizer. After they smelled the aroma of the crawfish, the staff would have turned into hungry wolves to fight over the food if it weren't for their professional ethics.

Xiang Yi: "There's still some sour plum soup in the fridge. Want some?"

The girl's voice was soft and polite, sounding heaven sent to the staff members.

Li Jianyu didn't hesitate. "Yes yes yes!"

"Then I'll go grab it."

"No no no, Mentor Xiang Yi, please sit, we can do it ourselves!"

The audience in the stream: ???

In the morning they had been calling her Xiang Yi; now, she was Mentor Xiang Yi.

This must be the least ethical crew in the history of TV crews!

"Wait—" A drawling voice reached everyone's ears. s.h.i.+ Sui's thin lips were slightly hooked as he lazily slouched in his seat. "How will you calculate the recycling fee?"

Huh?!

Yan Zhenhua reacted fast and chided in as well. "Yeah, you even get scissors from recycling old cell phones and home appliances!"

The crew: "..."

Of course, how could they forget these two old foxes.

After some negotiations, s.h.i.+ Sui put forth a clause that could be considered as 'surrendering something under humiliating terms': the crew would help clean up, including but not limited to cleaning dishes, wiping tables, and collecting tableware.

The netizens in the live broadcast room felt that the crew wasn't going to agree, but when the camera panned—

More than a dozen staff members had gathered around the small clump of crayfish. The ones who were nimble managed to s.n.a.t.c.h two, while the slower ones only got one. They were reluctant to eat it all at once as they chewed it slowly, holding it in their hands as if they were tasting a sublime delicacy that was delicious and expensive.

The noodles were also a hit. Each person got what they could with one chopstick trip. By then, n.o.body minded about cleanliness or hygiene as they carefully soaked their noodles in the same batch of crayfish soup before inhaling it like treasure.

The expressions of satisfaction on the faces of the staff was too real, making the audience suddenly realize Xiang Yi's cooking was really delicious after all!

—[I'm hungry from watching, I've opened the mysterious yellow app* again...]

—[Hahaha good thing I ordered my takeout early so I can watch while I eat. If you spend money earlier, you can reap the benefits sooner]

—[lmao all the other variety shows have guests being oppressed by the crew, but I didn't expect Two Under One Roof to have it reversed haha. This is the first time I've seen the crew help the guests clean up!]

Yan Zhenhua and s.h.i.+ Sui chatted for a while, talking about their arduous experience of filming in the mountains.

"...That night was a night scene, and it was raining. As the young folk like to say, the rain was bigger than the night Yi Ping went off to ask her dad for money*. s.h.i.+ Sui was also filming a fight scene, rolling around in the mud. Even his eyelashes were covered in mud." Although Yan Zhenhua was old, he was still very humorous. When he spoke, it was like a stand up comedy show. "But when that day ended, our crew had earthen pot farmhouse chicken ca.s.serole for lunch. It was so delicious..."

Xiang Yi didn't interrupt, but listened intently. From time to time, s.h.i.+ Sui would respond with a slight nod or a faint smile. In a light manner, he spoke. "There's an earthen pot furnace in the small kitchen, why don't we make some earthen pot chicken ca.s.serole for dinner?"

Yan Zhenhua excitedly slapped his t.h.i.g.h. "Yes yes yes! It needs to burn wood, right? I will go cut some!!"

...The well-known director completely forgot he had come on the show to relax and chat with s.h.i.+ Sui.

Xiang Yi: "Your hand has previously been injured, let me."

Yan Zhenhua was shocked for a few seconds, then he smiled. "The little miss is quite considerate, ah. Did you peel the crayfish for me because of my previous injury as well?"

An earthquake rocked the livestream channel in an instant.

Translator's note:

*The direct translation for this is actually 'teacher Xiang Yi' or professor. In Chinese customs, it's appropriate to address those with higher seniority 'teacher' even if teaching is not their profession.

*Yellow app is probably referring to a famous chinese takeout service, Mei Tuan

*A famous scene from the 2001 Chinese drama "Romance in the Rain"
