You were asked to be on a dating variety show, but all the guests failed?

Chapter 246 Is it really calm?
The yacht is divided into several sections.

At the front is naturally the deck, which is also the place where the guests go sea fishing; a little further in is the beverage bar, which also serves as a living room, with a TV and even game consoles, board games and the like; further in are the various rooms, whether it is the bedroom, the medical room, or the audio-visual room, all are on a corridor.

But there is a second floor.

The upper level not only has the captain's room, but also a more fully equipped deck with a huge, fixed, long outdoor dining table, and chairs and other items are all welded to the floor.

The reason is very simple, because this is a ship after all, something that sails on the sea. When designing anything, one must take into account the possibility that the hull may encounter wind and wave turbulence. Even for ordinary ships, large items in the kitchen and living room will be fixed in place from the beginning to avoid being hit and injured by turbulence, let alone a yacht designed for wealthy people?
The reason why the dining table is placed on the second floor instead of the first floor is, firstly, because the kitchen and indoor dining room are already upstairs, and the outdoor dining table only provides passengers with a place where multiple people can dine outside; secondly, placing this thing on the second floor can provide diners with an excellent viewing perspective, allowing them to eat and watch the sea at the same time, how romantic.

When it was time for lunch, the program team invited all the guests here.

Even Shu Yi, who had just finished receiving an IV drip in the medical room, was helped by the nurse to the second floor for dinner. After all, she was still a member of the guest group. Drowning was a very serious situation, but Shu Yi was not injured in a way that required her to stay in bed and eat liquid food. It was not a good idea to leave her alone in such an occasion.

"Oh, let me tell you something. Because Shuyi fell into the water, she had been resting in bed and receiving IV drips in the medical room. She did not participate in the sea fishing activity, but the production team was not so stingy, so her lunch share was given to her by the production team for free."

"The doctor has advised that it's best for her to eat light food now. We just asked the kitchen and luckily they have ready-made seafood porridge, which is also very delicious. It just looks a bit bland, but it's actually not much worse than the other guests'. Please don't get me wrong."

Li Wensheng led Shu Yi and the nurse, pointed out a place for her to sit, and announced this to everyone.

Although Shu Yi was not very likable during this recording, Han Fei and Qi Qingyi's group did not dislike her that much. Regardless of what she thought in private, at least Shu Yi had never made any mistakes in terms of superficial work.

Zhao Mingtao and Xu Qing'an had a fierce competition, and Lu Siyuan single-handedly fought against the entire program crew and guests. Compared with them, Shu Yi, who has always remained silent and never showed her dissatisfaction with someone in front of others, is simply an angel, okay?
Who doesn't want to be a decent person? But if others are already making trouble and you have to endure it, then none of the guests needs to do so.

So Han Fei looked at the others and nodded first:
"Oh, I understand. But Director Li, how about you let her sit with Lu Xiaoli and Qi Qingyi? There are already three or four injured guests, so it would be better to have one or two healthy guests in between. At least they can help pick up some food or something."

Li Wensheng neither refused nor agreed. He stared at the table in a daze, silently thinking about the seating arrangements.

In fact, the layout of the table has already shown how to eat today. It is impossible to eat Chinese food at this type of long table, otherwise everyone can only eat the dishes in front of them. Unless they eat on the go, everyone will not be able to eat two-thirds of the dishes, so this must be the separate dining system of Western cuisine.

From a cause-and-effect analysis, choosing this dining table is just a result.

The real reason was that Lu Siyuan was very likely to have an infectious disease. If they didn't separate the meals, regardless of whether they were contagious or not, everyone would inevitably feel uncomfortable. It was precisely because of the idea of ​​separate meals that Li Wensheng deliberately gave up the large round table indoors and asked everyone to sit at the long table outside.

No matter who sits next to Lu Siyuan, everyone will still feel uncomfortable and it is not appropriate. The advantage of a long table is that there are separate seats at both ends. When arranging seats, let Lu Siyuan sit alone and the guests on both sides stay away from him. This is good for everyone.

only……

Which two unlucky guys should be assigned?

As the only person with whom he has a relatively good relationship, Zhao Mingtao must have a share.

As for the other one, it couldn't be Shu Yi or Qi Qingyi, because they had direct conflicts with Lu Siyuan, and Shu Yi had even been beaten. It couldn't be Han Fei either, because otherwise it would be hard to say whether the meal could be finished peacefully. Xu Qingan was even more impossible, so it would be better to choose Han Fei than him!

Then, Ren Tuo? Lu Xiaoli? Nie Wenjin?

There were two girls, one of whom was injured, so Li Wensheng found it hard to let go of his worries.

He made up his mind and went around the table to make arrangements:

"Come, let me tell you about the seats."

"Lu Siyuan, please sit over here. This side faces the sailing direction and has the best view."

"Zhao Mingtao, Ren Tuo, the two of you sit on his left and right."

"Nie Wenjin sits next to Ren Tuo, Shu Yi, you sit next to Zhao Mingtao, Qi Qingyi sits next to Nie Wenjin, and Lu Xiaoli sits next to Shu Yi."

"Han Fei and Xu Qing'an, please sit wherever you want."

"Is there nothing wrong with this arrangement?"

No one really had any objections.

Even if there was, I thought about it and didn't mention it.

In fact, the only ones who were not satisfied with their seats were Lu Siyuan and Zhao Mingtao.

As soon as the former heard that he was sitting alone at the head of the table, he knew that he was being targeted by the program crew. However, the inspection report had not come out yet, and these people had every excuse to target him. He would not get the result he wanted if he made trouble now, and he couldn't even vent his anger, so he simply shut up.

And Zhao Mingtao... Even though he did come to participate in the program with Lu Siyuan, but as things have developed to this point, he is very worried whether Lu Siyuan is really sick, whether there is a possibility of contagious disease, or even that he has already infected himself. So now he can't stand Lu Siyuan anymore, and he was arranged by the program crew to sit with this guy. Zhao Mingtao didn't know how many times he cursed "fuck you" in his heart.

On the contrary, Ren Tuo, who was placed next to Lu Siyuan, did not show any emotional fluctuations.

First of all, Nie Wenjin sat next to him. This seating arrangement was obviously appeasing. If he objected, then even if Li Wensheng changed his seat, he would not be able to move to the other side of Nie Wenjin later, because he could not let Qi Qingyi sit next to Lu Siyuan. If Kou Hongying saw this scene, he might have to go back to police station after the recording.

Secondly, this is a separate dining system. As long as Lu Siyuan doesn't spray while eating, the possibility of infection is very small, so he is not particularly worried.

And it just so happened that he also wanted to take this opportunity to observe carefully.

After a strange silence, Li Wensheng saw that no one objected, so he ran back to the kitchen and asked people to serve the dishes.

Soon, everyone's food was served.

Most people had guessed that it was one dish per person today, so they were not surprised. The guests who had a normal harvest from sea fishing only had three dishes. Most people ordered seafood risotto, a stir-fried vegetable dish, and a seafood dish. Those who had a good harvest had more dishes, such as Australian lobster, sashimi platter, sushi, skewers, and a lot of other things.

Han Fei was the one who gained the most besides Ren Tuo and Nie Wenjin.

While he was eating heartily, he pointed at the plate of sashimi that had just been served with his spoon, took a break from eating, and said:

"Xu Qing'an, please take half of my plate. I haven't touched it yet. If one person can't finish it, you can eat some too!" Young Master Xu had played at the beach many times, but he was a fishing novice, the kind who didn't know how to fish. He had neither the aura of a novice nor the eyesight and skills of a veteran. He was badly left behind in this sea fishing activity. He only ordered a plate of risotto and a plate of stir-fried pork with green peppers. Because the seafood risotto also contained seafood, it had to be exchanged for ten kilograms of fish. He ate in silence, and Han Fei couldn't stand it anymore.

Hearing this, Xu Qingan immediately raised his head from the rice bowl, his eyes glowing with wolf-like green light:

"Is it true, foster father?!"

This child is so sensible!
Han Fei, who was easily bought by the word "adoptive father", smiled cheerfully and pushed the plate of stir-fried lettuce in front of him over:

"Come here, big boy, take half of this plate!"

Xu Qingan was filled with gratitude:

"If you don't give up..."

Han Fei was too lazy to continue acting with him, so he buried his head back in his meal and said as he ate:
"Stop talking nonsense and eat quickly. I still have some fish meat left. Maybe I can discuss with Director Li about changing to a dessert or something later. Stop talking nonsense!"

Xu Qing'an stopped talking on the spot and just kept grunting and grumbling at the plate of seafood rice.

aside.

Watching the two of them eating together, Qi Qingyi, who was standing next to them, was looking forward to it with her eyes wide open.

Whether it is Xu Qing'an or Qi Qingyi, it can be said that they have suffered all the hardships of their lives in this show.

Even though Xu Qing'an had been working hard at the grassroots level in the past few years, the conditions were only difficult. He had never been short of food and clothing. As for Qi Qingyi, there was no need to mention her. The little princess only controlled her diet to lose weight. How could she not be able to eat what she wanted?
Against the backdrop of her previous fond memories of delicious food, especially since all the chefs on this ship were hired by Qi Qingyi, it was extremely difficult for her to bear watching others enjoying the delicious food.

Nie Wenjin was eating slowly and leisurely. He suddenly caught a glimpse of Qi Qingyi's useless look, almost drooling. He could only laugh and tap his plate with the tip of his fork. He leaned over and whispered:
"Why are you envious of them? You can eat mine, too. My dishes are richer than Han Fei's. One person can't finish them all anyway. I just forgot to ask you to eat with me, and you really don't want to eat? You've never been so honest before."

At this moment, Qi Qingyi really wanted to hug her thighs and call her godmother - Xu Qing'an could call Han Fei godfather, so it didn't seem too shameful for her to call her godmother, right?

With tears in her eyes, she grabbed a plate of mixed vegetables from Nie Wenjin and ate it with seafood rice. She felt that she had never eaten so deliciously in her life.

These four people get along and help each other harmoniously. No one quarrels or argues, and it seems that everything is calm.

But really, is everything calm?

"Zhao Mingtao, come with me. I have something to ask you."

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Shu Yi suddenly put down her spoon and chopsticks, turned around and whispered something to Zhao Mingtao.

Zhao Mingtao responded with a puzzled look:

"?"

Shu Yi lowered her voice:
"Just follow me to the lower deck and we'll talk once we get there. I'll go first, and remember to turn off your microphone."

…………

Not long after.

Looking at Shu Yi and Zhao Mingtao who left one after another and claimed that they were going to the bathroom, although the guests did not deliberately look at their backs, their expressions were somewhat subtle.

Do these two people think that everyone is not very smart?

Even if they wanted to find an opportunity to talk alone, they should choose a less obvious time, right? For example, if someone else was going to the bathroom, Shu Yi would go with them, and Zhao Mingtao would follow. This way, it would be more appropriate to meet in the crowd.

Like now, are they afraid that others don't know that they are planning to have a secret conversation?
Xu Qing'an's face was particularly dark, and Han Fei, who was sitting opposite him, saw it clearly.

Han Fei poked the edge of his plate with chopsticks and whispered:
"Dude, even though you're not a celebrity, you should at least pay attention to your facial expressions, right? There's no PD following you, but there's still a camera on the table. Why are you so gloomy?"

"Don't wait until the recording is over and you go out to check the press release and find a bunch of marketing accounts saying that you still have feelings for her. She won't be the one to be embarrassed."

Xu Qing'an was silent for a moment and sighed.

He didn't control the volume on purpose, and said in a normal voice:
"It's nothing else. I just feel like I was blind and had water in my brain in the past few years. That's why I like this kind of person."

"Anyway, whether you or the audience, everyone knows what the situation is between her and me. I'm just upset. If I had a hot temper, I would have beaten her up a long time ago to vent my anger. Why would I be so upset? It's a pity that I was taught not to hit women since I was a child, and Zhao Mingtao never confronted me head-on... Damn, it's really annoying."

"I can't even eat anymore!"

The production team was kind enough to serve them two bottles of champagne during the meal as a gift. However, none of the female guests drank, and neither did Han Fei, one of the male guests. Xu Qingan drank as much as several people around him, and now he was saying these things in front of the camera, which was somewhat influenced by alcohol.

Han Fei put down the tableware, wiped his mouth gracefully, pointed his finger under the floor, and asked softly:

"Since you're upset, go down and take a look."

"If you really are going to the bathroom, you might as well stand next to him and compare your size. If not, then let's listen to what they are talking about openly. No matter what we do, it will be a hundred times better than sulking on the table right now."

"Of course, that's your decision to make. I'm just suggesting that I go with you if necessary."

Xu Qing'an looked straight into his calm eyes, and the blood and alcohol rushed to his brain.

He slammed the table and stood up:
"Let's go! Whoever is a coward is a grandson!"
