Abstract Art Award Winner

Chapter 161 Two Ancestors Are Here
The next day, Zhou Le left before dawn.

No excessive lingering.

After all, there will be more people when it gets a little brighter.

After Zhou Le came out, he got into the car driven by Su Yingxia.

"Brother, let's go to Xiao Meng's place now."

Zhou Le was stunned for a moment: "Seamless connection?"

Su Yingxia: “.”

"Aren't you guys going to 'Chinese Restaurant'? I've already put your luggage in the car for you."

Zhou Le suddenly realized: "Oh, yes, I was confused in my sleep and forgot about it."

It’s all because Nazha was too clingy yesterday.

Afterwards, the two of them went to pick up Meng Ziyi and then went to the airport.

Now Su Yingxia is driving Yu Shuxin's car. After arriving at the airport, she parked the car in the parking lot and will drive it when she comes back.

At the airport, Zhou Le and Meng Ziyi were naturally recognized by some passers-by.

"You two."

Fans were shocked to see the two walking together. Although the two did not interact much on Weibo in the past, Meng Ziyi also stood up to speak for Zhou Le several times when his post was on the hot search list.

"Don't get me wrong, I belong to Brother Le now." Meng Ziyi explained quickly.

Zhou Le: “.”

"Don't listen to her nonsense. She's just signed a contract with me now. We're going to record a variety show this time."

Zhou Le had no choice but to explain again.

After that, they took a flight for a whole day. After arriving at the destination, they took a car arranged by the program crew, changed to a boat, and finally arrived in Taormina, Sicily, Italy.

On the way, Su Yingxia was busy working online and monitoring public opinion.

I also saw that some people have already posted about Zhou Le and Meng Ziyi.

But she didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing. After all, before this, some people said that Zhou Le was secretly in love with Tian Xiwei and Yu Shuxin.

They are all unofficial histories.

The only thing left is history.

After arriving, the three of them first had a good rest in their respective rooms. After all, they had come a long way, and on the one hand they had to adjust to the jet lag, and on the other hand they also needed to rest.

But after only three or four hours of sleep, they had to get up and start putting on makeup.

They will be on duty here in the evening, so they can go there to have dinner and officially start work the next day.

"Brother Le, is there anything I should pay attention to here?"

Meng Ziyi asked.

Zhou Le looked at Meng Ziyi who was putting on makeup and said, "You're still thinking about this? Don't all the show scripts seem unscripted in your eyes?"

Meng Ziyi smiled sheepishly: "I'm just afraid of being scolded. Here are Wang Junkai, Yang Zi, and Huang Xiaoming. They are all top stars. If they say something wrong, I will be scolded to death."

"Then you'll have to ask Xiao Su."

Su Yingxia was holding the script at this time.

"Actually, there's not a lot to be careful about here. Wang Junkai can't mention TF, and Xiao Ming Ge should not mention Angelababy unless Xiao Ming Ge says so himself. And Yang Zi can't mention other competing female artists. There's really nothing else to worry about."

"But Brother Le, Ziyi, you two will also be in the restaurant after we get there. The theme of this episode is to host a Chinese-style dinner for a foreign couple. You're actually here to assist as wedding planners. Besides you two, there will also be Shen Mengchen and Du Haitao."

"By the way, you can't ask them when they will get married."

Meng Ziyi sighed: "Alas, I can't say this or that. The show would only be interesting if we could talk about these topics."

Then she asked Zhou Le: "Brother Le, is there anything you can't ask?"

Zhou Le: "No, you said that when I was in kindergarten, I was punished by standing in the corner for pulling my trouser pockets, but nothing happened."

Meng Ziyi was shocked: "Brother Le, do you have this kind of experience?"

As he said this, he subconsciously looked down.

Zhou Le: "Where are you looking? My sphincter is very strong now, okay!"

The two makeup artists couldn't stop laughing.

This also includes the assistant director of the program team who was sitting in the back waiting.

Her main responsibility here is to explain the process and lead the way.

"Teachers, your show was fantastic, but let's talk about it later. Our makeup artist's hands are shaking from laughing so hard."

"Oh, sorry."

Zhou Le quickly apologized.

Makeup is more important.

But after a while, Zhou Le said again: "Ziyi, actually you can think about it from another angle. They can't ask those topics, which means that they can talk about anything else."

Meng Ziyi immediately became interested: "Then I also want to ask Wang Junkai and Li Binbin"

Zhou Le: "What?"

"The two of them."

At this time, the assistant director was overwhelmed and said quickly.

"This is completely false. Don't ask about it on the show."

But Zhou Le was thinking of something else: "But I remember that my brother Yuan is now signed to Fan Binbin. Last month, Fan Binbin had an accident. Was my brother Yuan affected?"

"He is a little bit, but actually he's okay." The assistant director was really a little scared. Why did these two people tell everything to others?
"Teacher Zhou, please don't tell me this when the time comes."

"It's okay, I know. I'm just asking."

Zhou Le smiled.

In fact, Zhou Le usually calls Wang Junkai and Yi Yang Qianxi by their full names, but it is different for Wang Yuan. Some people still make fun of Huazi's jokes, and Zhou Le often watches these ghost videos online when he has nothing to do.

Since you have seen his ghost videos, it’s not too much to call him brother behind his back.

After a while, after getting in the car, the assistant director repeated everything he could think of twice.

Afraid of missing something.

"Sister, are you always so careful here?"

Meng Ziyi was a little curious. She had participated in many variety shows, but this was the first time she had seen such a cautious production crew.

"Hahaha, yeah, we can't wait until the show airs and people start talking about us."

But at the same time, I thought to myself, "I'm just being cautious with you two ancestors."

They are going to shoot the sixth episode.

It didn't take long to get to the restaurant.

At this time, Shen Mengchen and Du Haitao had already arrived.

They are chatting.

But after hearing the sound, they hurried out to greet them, but they had to pretend that they knew nothing.

"Ziyi, how well you've honed your acting skills will all depend on this time."

Zhou Le warned.

Meng Ziyi nodded confidently. In order to play the role of Ye Ling'er well, she has been in seclusion for this period of time.

Carry your luggage and walk down.

Du Haitao came out first.

"Let me see who's coming." Du Haitao muttered as he walked out.

The first time he saw Zhou Le, his eyes lit up: "Abstract Emperor!"

Zhou Le: “.”

What kind of name is this that makes people want to dig out a three-bedroom apartment from the ground?

But Zhou Le couldn't let the words fall on the ground.

"Haha, no need to stand up."

Du Haitao: “?”

He didn't expect Zhou Le to react so quickly, and why did his words sound like a double entendre?
But by this time everyone else had come out.

The one in front of them now is a rising star in the acting circle, and the other is Meng Ziyi, a recognized variety show black hole whose brain cannot keep up with his mouth.

Seeing this, Wang Junkai came over and wanted to help Zhou Le with his luggage.

"It's okay, mine isn't heavy. It's filled with gifts for everyone. Sister Meng's is a bit heavier."

Zhou Le said.

Meng Ziyi also tried hard to drag the box down from the car with both hands.

"Yes, yes, this is heavy for me, Junkai, please help me carry it."

Wang Junkai immediately went over to help.

At this moment, the others also realized that Meng Ziyi seemed to be quite presumptuous at this time.

But it's not a big deal.

Anyway, after the show is aired, fans will definitely feel sorry for Xiaokai.

But when Wang Junkai was pulling the box downstairs, he was almost thrown away by the box.

"Wow, it's so heavy, what's in it?"

Wang Junkai exclaimed.

Meng Ziyi took down another box and said, "These are also some gifts."

When several people entered the dormitory, Wang Junkai was so tired that veins popped out on his forehead.

"Is this too heavy?" Zhou Le asked.

"It's okay, it's not heavy."

Zhou Le sighed in his heart, young people just like to show off.

However, Zhou Le also discovered that Meng Ziyi was so relaxed in front of outsiders, or in front of the camera, as if she was at home.

No wonder people say that.

However, Meng Ziyi quickly opened the box he brought.

Wang Junkai was stunned when he saw it.

There is a bag of rice and a bag of millet in the box.

All are 20 kg in size.

Open the other side and you will see two hams inside.

It is not the ham from the sausage, but two pieces of ham, with neat skin, plump heart, little fat head, and no cracks, which looks very beautiful and neat.

"Ziyi, have you brought all the refrigerators from home?"

Du Haitao was also shocked.

He didn't expect that a person could be so simple and unpretentious.

Meng Ziyi waved his hand. "What refrigerator? I can't cook, so how can I possibly store these things in the refrigerator? I wasn't sure what to bring, but Brother Le suggested I bring some local specialties. People opening restaurants here will definitely miss the food from back home. Rice and millet are our specialties, and the ham is Xuanwei ham."

Everyone wanted to laugh when looking at these things.

But at this time Chef Lin came over.

His eyes lit up when he saw the two hams.

"These two hams are incredible, both top quality, perfect for cooking. Great."

Huang Xiaoming asked curiously, "Are these two very expensive?"

Chef Lin nodded and said, "Of course, this is Xuanwei ham. Judging from its quality, the price of this ham is probably around 20,000 yuan."

"So expensive!" Everyone was a little surprised.

"And these rices are also very good. It seems that Teacher Meng really brought us a lot of good things this time. They are all what the restaurant needs most."

But then they turned their eyes to Zhou Le again.

Zhou Le also opened the suitcase. Only one side contained Zhou Le's personal belongings, but the other side was full of small commodities.

"You can choose the ones you like and give them to customers in the restaurant as gifts, or sell them."

Zhou Le said.

"Very good. I suggest that some of these things be given as gifts, and some be sold as funds for the store." As the store manager, Huang Xiaoming immediately allocated the ownership.

Zhou Le doesn't care.

"Okay, let's go eat."

With Huang Xiaoming's shout, everyone in the restaurant understood what he meant, because they had planned a prank before.

The purpose is to make trouble for Zhou Le, Meng Ziyi and Du Haitao.

After arriving at the dining table and sitting down, Huang Xiaoming suddenly started to complain that there was something wrong with Chef Lin's work that night.

Chef Lin immediately refuted.

Both of them had dark faces, and Huang Xiaoming's words were sarcastic and cryptic.

In the end, the two of them started arguing.

At first Zhou Le thought it was just mumbling, but after watching it for a while, he felt something was wrong.

Is Huang Xiaoming such a person?

Although Zhou Le had never come into contact with him, he had come into contact with people who knew Huang Xiaoming.

Although it feels a bit greasy sometimes, it is definitely not the kind that will make you lose your temper.

"Understood!"

Zhou Le understood.

This is the script!

Although there is no such part in the script, there was no script of He Jiong and Huang Lei quarreling in "A Longing for Life" before.

As a guest invited by the program crew at a high price, he naturally has to cooperate well.

Then, Zhou Le stood up immediately.

"No, how could a restaurant owner scold the chef? Even though I just got here, I've heard almost everything. Chef Renlin is fine, and he's been tired all day. What else is there to say?"

Zhou Le chose his position in an instant.

The sudden sound made everyone stunned.

Including Yang Zi, Wang Junkai and others who are responsible for coordination between the two sides.

And Meng Ziyi also reacted quickly.

On the way here, Zhou Le told her a lot of things. Because she knew Zhou Le, she knew that Zhou Le must have some purpose for suddenly speaking.

And now it must be for the show effect.

So, Meng Ziyi also stood up immediately.

"Isn't it the owner who has the final say in a restaurant? Just say it. I think there's nothing wrong with Xiao Ming. Aren't chefs employees?"

"No." Huang Xiaoming wanted to say something, but Zhou Le spoke angrily.

"What's wrong with the employees? The most important person in a restaurant isn't the owner, but the chef, understand? Without a chef, why don't you let Brother Xiao Ming go in and cook by himself?"

"Hey, bastard." Chef Lin also pressed Zhou Le's arm and wanted to explain.

"No, then why can't I say anything? What's wrong with talking about problems at work?" Meng Ziyi was no less convinced.

"What are you talking about? Whose problem is it?"

"I mean you two," Huang Xiaoming wanted to reconcile.

But Meng Ziyi went straight to pull Zhou Le: "Come on, come on, do you have any objections to me? Let's talk outside, there are too many people here."

"Let's go!"

Huang Xiaoming, Chef Lin, Yang Zi and others were all dumbfounded.

What's the situation?
Isn't this a prank? Why did they really start arguing?
Aren't these two from the same company?
Why does it look like they are arguing even more fiercely than Brother Xiao Ming and Chef Lin?

Now they could all hear the shouting outside.

"Xiao Kai, why don't you go out and take a look."

Wang Junkai was also a little at a loss.

The director team was even more confused.

But the camera still faithfully records every shot.

At this time, outside the restaurant.

Zhou Le took out a handful of melon seeds from his pocket and gave half to Meng Ziyi.

"Do you even know how to run a restaurant? (Chew, chew, chew)."

"Open a restaurant? I don't know how to open a restaurant? I have a restaurant at home, do you think I know how to do it?"

After saying that, he realized that he had eaten a bad melon seed.

After spitting it out, he grabbed another one from Zhou Le's hand.

"What's wrong with opening a hotel? Go back and kick the chef out. Do you think anyone will still go there?"

After Zhou Le finished speaking, Meng Ziyi turned around and looked inside.

"That should be about right, right? I'm a little tired."

"That's about it. Let's leave it like this. The production team will edit it anyway." After saying that, he glanced at the cameraman in front of him and said, "Isn't that right, brother?"

The eldest brother kept laughing while holding the camera.

At this time, Wang Junkai came out.

"Hey, you two, please stop arguing. Actually..."

"Actually, I know the script. By the way, would you like some melon seeds?" Zhou Le said as he took out another handful.

Wang Junkai was about to decline.

Zhou Le enthusiastically stuffed the melon seeds into Wang Junkai's hand.

"Eat some."

Then we went in to eat.

Everyone was having a great time at the dinner table.

Nothing like before.

After all, compared to before, no matter how abstract Zhou Le and Meng Ziyi are at the dinner table now, they are not incomprehensible.

However, when Tong Zhuo learned that Zhou Le was from Shanxi at the dinner table, he immediately said that he was also from Shanxi.

"Where are you from Shanxi?"

"I'm from Linfen."

"Oh, then I'm in Taiyuan, it's not far away."

"Yeah, it's not far, but Brother Le and you guys are a little late. If you were earlier, Tian He would be here too."

Zhou Le: "Who is Tian He?"

"It's Gao Tianhe, he's a great singer."

"Then why did he leave? He only signed a three-day contract?"

Tong Zhuo: “???”

He suddenly didn't know how to answer.

But Huang Xiaoming could naturally handle this kind of small situation: "It was mainly because the assessment period had not been passed, and the program team stipulated that only one person could stay, so in the end Tong Zhuo stayed."

After all, Huang Xiaoming knew that some of the content would be cut off.

That night, several people packed up their things, and Chef Lin arranged the local specialties that Meng Ziyi brought.

After finishing his work, Wang Junkai returned to his room.

I was lying there and suddenly felt a little bored.

His hand inadvertently reached for his pocket.

Finally, he took out a handful of melon seeds.

He ate a few of them and found them quite delicious. He felt empty inside until he finished the melon seeds.

So he thought for a moment, got up and went out, knocking on Zhou Le's bedroom door.

"Brother Le, do you have any more melon seeds?"

Zhou Le naturally had some in stock, so the two of them ate melon seeds on the stairs and chatted about games for a while.

"Then let's play together after we get back."

"Okay, then we'll duo queue."

"Who are you playing?" Wang Junkai asked again.

"I'm fine with anything, what about you?"

“I usually play top lane more.”

"Okay, let's go back together."

The next morning, they began to discuss the engagement party.

The newlyweds planned to have a buffet, but Chef Lin thought that a buffet was too troublesome and that buying a buffet stove would be expensive, so he was not in favor of it.

So I invited the newcomer over to chat.

Huang Xiaoming still prefers to follow the customer's ideas.

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."

Zhou Le laughed when he heard this, because Wang Junkai had talked about this with Zhou Le yesterday, saying that Yang Zi injured his hand and didn't want to go to the hospital, so Huang Xiaoming said this.

Actually, the words are good.

As a result, Meng Ziyi, who had just come out of the toilet, happened to hear only this sentence.

"Brother Xiao Ming, what do you think?"

Zhou Le: “.”

Are you really not afraid of the program crew editing it?
Zhou Le suddenly felt that Meng Ziyi had deserved the criticism he received in the past.

This is all material delivered to your door.

Zhou Le told the story again.

Meng Ziyi suddenly realized: "We just listen to whoever has the final say here. Either it's more traditional, but it doesn't suit the guests' ideas, or it's more troublesome, but it costs more money."

"Then who has the final say here?"

Wang Junkai was confused.

After what happened yesterday, he doesn't dare to talk nonsense now.

As a result, Zhou Le looked directly at the camera: "The director team has the final say. Director, can you lend us some money? About 1,000 euros, that should be enough. I will put it on my account when the time comes."

Chef Lin then stood up and said, "It's not good, after all, it's all our job."

Zhou Le waved his hand: "It's okay, we'll be leaving in a few days anyway, so you don't have to pay it back. You can still sell the buffet stove secondhand, and then it will be another source of income."

Several people were shocked when they heard this.

I never thought I could do this.
