Chapter 23: Heavy Rain is Coming (Please Read!)
river bank.

Han Fei and Qi Qingyi sat on two small stools, each holding a crudely made fishing rod.

The so-called fishing rod was not even polished, and there were burrs on the bamboo that had not been scraped clean, which was a bit prickly. However, Han Fei was thoughtful and kept the bamboo with more thorns for himself, and gave the smoother one to Qi Qingyi.

This is out of respect for the financial sponsor. Even for the sake of the three hundred thousand today, he has to be more considerate.

"Can you really fish? If I remember correctly, you would be chased and blocked if you go out. How can you have a chance to fish in peace and quiet?"

Qi Qingyi stared at the fish float in the water with her eyes wide open. After lunch just now, her blood sugar soared and she was already feeling sleepy on the spot. But the program crew was so unkind, and now that she was basking in the sun, she felt even more sleepy.

The sun in June is not too scorching. Apart from the annoying mosquitoes, the breeze along the river bank is quite comfortable and makes you sleepier.

Han Fei took a glance and saw that her eyelids were drooping, so he picked up a hatchet and cut down a forked Y-shaped branch from the tree next to him. He pushed it into the soil and it was just enough to serve as a fishing rod rack.

"I'll keep an eye on it for you. You can use my coat as a cushion. Go sleep for a while under the shade of the tree over there. There shouldn't be many mosquitoes after you've sprayed some mosquito repellent. Sleep for half an hour and I'll call you."

He took off his coat and threw it over, pointing to the grass behind.

Qi Qingyi tried to open her eyes wide, shook her head, and said with a determined look:
"no!"

"This is a two-person mission, and I have to take responsibility...I won't sleep!"

"If you want to help me, then if I catch a fish later, you can help me take it down. I can't touch fish. Just thinking about the touch gives me goosebumps."

Han Fei: ...

Sister, you're so sleepy that you want to pry your eyes open with a toothpick, why are you still standing here being stubborn?
But since Qi Qingyi insisted, he was too lazy to persuade her anymore. After agreeing to help her get the fish, Han Fei just stared at the float on the water to see when a fish would be caught.

It didn't take long.

Instead of waiting for the fish to be caught, a group of people came.

"Hey, why are you guys here?"

A clear and lively female voice came to my ears.

The two looked back and found a car parked on the cement road not far from the river bank. The logo of the program group of "Let's Fall in Love! Big Star" was printed on the car body. It was one of the three cars that had taken the guests away.

All the rear windows were rolled down, revealing the girl's youthful, beautiful and energetic smile.

It was Shu Yi.

She greeted her and immediately jumped out of the car and ran over to talk. Lu Siyuan, who was in the same team with her, followed her slowly. He stared at Shu Yi's back with a gentle smile on his face.

——Of course, this is after choosing the angle, with her best-looking profile facing the camera and showing a gentle smile.

Han Fei accidentally glanced at him, and the irritability and disgust in his heart surged up again. If he hadn't had a new soul in this body, he would probably have spoken harshly to him.

What bad luck.

He spat in his heart, ignored Lu Siyuan, and explained to Shu Yi:
"We automatically formed a team after giving up at noon. We have a punishment task. The production team wants us to collect enough food for eight people tonight and cook. So we are fishing here now. If we can catch more, we can take the fish to exchange for other dishes with the villagers. If we can't exchange, it's okay. We can make a fish feast."

"The kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, and seasonings. It shouldn't be a problem to make boiled fish, steamed fish, chopped pepper fish head, and fish soup." Shu Yi seemed to have a strong sense of empathy. When she heard that the two of them were going to prepare dinner for eight people, she couldn't help but look a little worried:

"Can you guys do it? Do you want my help? Although I don't know how to fish, I can go to the village and ask the villagers if there is any work they need to do, even in exchange for a couple of cabbages and potatoes or something."

Han Fei smiled and declined her kindness:
"Thank you, but the production team clearly wants to make things difficult for us. If you help, it will probably be considered a violation. If they give us another difficult question tomorrow, then today's work will be in vain."

"Now that you're back, go rest in the room. By the way, didn't the production team say you had other tasks to do? Why are you back now? How long has it been?"

He took out his cell phone to check the time. It was barely two o'clock.

These three groups of guests set off before twelve o'clock, and the round trip probably took an hour. It looked like they just had a meal and came back in a hurry. What about the mission?
The smile on Shu Yi's face fell a little:

"It was said that there was a heavy rain warning for Changshan City this afternoon. The original mission was to go to the amusement park, but we were afraid of any accidents, so we urgently canceled it and changed it to tomorrow."

"Oh, it's hard to deal with this on the first day of the show."

Han Fei looked at the weather forecast app on his phone in surprise and found that it was actually true.

The heavy rain warning period is from 3pm to 12am today. If it comes true, it means they can only fish for another hour before having to go back, and there is a high probability that they will not have dinner today.

But he looked up at the sky - there were no dark clouds at all, the sky was clear and the sun was still high in the sky.

Han Fei searched the news and frowned slightly after reading it:

"Changshan City is the capital of Southern Sichuan Province. There are many water systems nearby, in the middle reaches of the Nanjiang River."

"The news said that heavy rains started in the upper reaches of the province yesterday, and there have already been flood disasters. If the rain comes all the way from the upper reaches, the Changshan section of the Nanjiang River will also be flooded. This is two heavy rains superimposed on each other..."

"This is indeed a bit dangerous, and the production crew is right to be concerned."

"If there is any problem with the drainage system, it is hard to say whether you can come back from the city."

It's not like he had never encountered this kind of situation in his previous life.

Heavy rains in summer can easily cause waterlogging on roads and even floods. Of course, serious cases will be left to the soldiers, but the local police officers will not be idle either. Once a disaster is serious and there is a shortage of manpower, no matter it is 110, 119 or 120, they will all be dispatched and on standby.

Han Fei looked at the small river in front of him and felt a little worried.

If there is a flood in the upper reaches, can the middle and lower reaches withstand it? Yunshan Village is located on the mountain and close to the river. Will it encounter mudslides? This is no joke.

"Han Fei, you have too little confidence in our city construction."

"When it comes to summer rainstorms, which coastal city near a river won't encounter such things? There are plans in place. We just need to trust the authorities. This is a live broadcast. Don't exaggerate. Be responsible for what you say. What if you cause panic?"

Lu Siyuan suddenly spoke, his smile remaining unchanged, but the implications of his words were particularly uncomfortable.

Han Fei was furious. He immediately stood up, grabbed him by the collar, and sneered:

"So you think there's no need to worry about floods? There's already flooding upstream, people are missing and property has been damaged. The purpose of the official rainstorm warning is to encourage people to stay at home as much as possible. What do you mean by saying this as a public figure? You didn't even read the notice and just said that?"
