A Top-Tier Life Begins with Sarcastic Phrases

That evening, Gu Yun sent the photos to Huang Ming.

"This look is really good."

After seeing the photos, Huang Ming couldn't help but sigh that Gu Yun was really suited for period dramas.

"But he's handsome, there's no comparison."

Huang Ming attached the photo to Gu Yun's resume and sent it to the "Qingqing Daily Life" production team's email address.

The package had been sent, but Huang Ming still didn't think Gu Yun could snatch the male lead role from Bai Jingting.

He still has to work overtime to find other scripts.

"I did it! I did it! Teacher Gu, I did it!"

Gu Yun, who hadn't even had breakfast yet, was startled by Chen Momo's disheveled hair and dark circles under her eyes, which resembled those of a panda.

"Did you go to practice the Dao of Meditation last night?"

"Video! I stayed up all night last night to find the perfect background music and edited a perfect transition video. I'm sending it to you."

Chen Momo was extremely excited!

She finally felt no guilt about receiving a salary without working.

"Go get some sleep, we have to catch a plane tonight to film [Departure 2]."

Gu Yun saved the video and then urged Chen Momo to go to rest.

Good morning, everyone!

Tian Xiwei greeted everyone and then naturally sat down next to Gu Yun. Her cold hadn't gotten better, and her voice was still a little hoarse.

Thanks to Chef Huang, today is the second time the guests of "Let's Travel Together" have gathered together for a meal. Zhang Xiaoxiao and Ding Zhen have both been discharged from the hospital.

This time, the production team learned their lesson and made breakfast prepared by the head chef, refusing to let Chef Huang into the kitchen under any circumstances.

"Hey, Oda, are you still feeling better from your cold?"

He Ling served herself a bowl of fragrant beef soup. He had run into Gu Yun and Tian Xiwei when they returned last night.

"Not yet, ┭┮﹏┭┮", Xiaotian pointed to her stuffy nose and said with a wronged look.

Taking advantage of the moment, Huang Xiaochu scratched his nose and blurted out in his "dad's jargon": "Kids these days, their health is really not good."

"When I was your age, I never needed injections or medicine for colds. I would just sleep it off and sweat it out."

Zhang Xiaoxiao, ever the dedicated flatterer, said, "Indeed, young people these days have poor health."

Chef Huang tilted his head and looked at Ding Zhen: "Um, Ding, have you ever given birth?"

Ding Zhen's hand, holding the steamed bun, hovered in mid-air. After his mind raced for two and a half seconds, he answered seriously, "I can't have children; it's all thanks to my mother's savings."

Huang Xiaochu's brain has gone blank.

A few seconds later, he realized that he had chosen the wrong person to show off to. Trying to show off to the dim-witted Ding Zhen was like casting pearls before swine.

"Ahem, does Liangliang exercise regularly...?"

Tian Xi stuck out her tongue. She was about to hear more nagging. Ugh.

Seeing that Chef Huang kept rambling on, Tian Xiwei, Yang Zi, Huang Shengyi and Mai Lin all turned their attention to Gu Yun.

Yang Zi gestured with his chin and asked, "What does Xiao Gu think?"

Gu Yun: "I'll watch it while sitting."

Gu Yun wasn't stupid; he knew that the others wanted him to confront Chef Huang.

But his "King of Memes" tag is still cooling down, and there's no benefit in criticizing Chef Huang, so Gu Yun won't do something that's thankless.

"By the way, Xiaotian, Xiaochen has finished editing that video. Let's take a look together. If you think it's okay, I'll post it."

Gu Yun looked at Tian Xiwei. He didn't care about the lives of Yang Zi, Huang Shengyi, and Mai Lin, but he could still save Xiao Tian.

"Okay, okay!" Xiaotian's big eyes sparkled, practically screaming "I don't want to listen to your nagging!"

The video is about forty seconds long.

The background music is the climax of "Daylight".

Earlier, Tian Xiwei accidentally fell into the water, and Gu Yun jumped in to save her. The music stopped as he was submerged.

Just as Gu Yun lifted Tian Xiwei out of the water in his arms, the music reached its climax, creating a striking contrast between the cool and warm tones in the foreground and background.

At the end of the video, a drop of water fell down Gu Yun's hair, slid across the corner of his slightly upturned mouth, and landed on Tian Xi's brow.

The atmosphere was amazing!

"..." Xiaotian felt her face getting hot; this video seemed a bit ambiguous.

She secretly glanced at Gu Yun, and damn it, this guy didn't seem to notice anything at all.

"How is it?" Gu Yun thought this video was sure to go viral. To be honest, Chen Momo's editing skills were pretty good.

"You're alright, I guess~" Xiaotian tilted her head back and laughed smugly, "You can't beat me, hehe, I'm a super sweet girl even without makeup~"

Gu Yun: "Oh right, you're amazing! I'll make it big then, shall we co-create it?"

"Um."

With Xiaotian's consent, Gu Yun logged into the Douyin backend and clicked to publish. Gu Yun originally wanted to write about wealthy siblings, but Xiaotian threatened him with three "praises" and changed it to wealthy brother and sister.

Chef Huang was really impressive today. He didn't get roasted by Gu Yun when he was showing off at breakfast. He was in high spirits and felt like he was filming Mushroom House.

Having regained his confidence, Chef Huang turned his gaze to Gu Yun again, his eyes darting around before he launched into a lecture:

"Honestly, don't let Gu's youth fool you. When it comes to health, he's definitely not as healthy as me."

"Because I don't stay up late, ah, first of all, by not staying up late, all my bodily functions are much stronger than his."

"..."

Gu Yun ignored him and went to discuss the upcoming schedule with the production team.

But in Huang Xiaochu's eyes, this was a hasty escape, and he laughed heartily: "Look, after saying a few words, the child is unhappy."

"I said these things for his own good, but he doesn't want to listen."

"Honest advice is hard to swallow, but this child doesn't appreciate his good fortune..."

Huang Xiaochu kept making noise, and He Ling couldn't stand it anymore. She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Alright, hurry up and eat. We'll be leaving soon after Xiao Gu gets the mission card."

Not only He Ling and Huang Shengyi are annoyed by Chef Huang, but the comments section is also annoyed.

[Help! Tell Chef Huang to stop talking! Work is already so annoying!]

[Where's my mouth double? Why isn't Gu Yun arguing with him today?]

Lao Yun, please come back soon!

I swear, I've really put up with Chef Huang for a long time!

[I've only just realized that half the enjoyable parts of this show come from Gu Yun's吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or witty remarks).]

……

……

"Yunnan's food is delicious and the scenery is beautiful. Next, let's set off together to take a boat across Erhai Lake and experience the beauty of Yunnan."

After Gu Yun finished reading the task card, the group set off.

Gu Yun, Tian Xiwei, and He Ling were in one car.

On the way to Erhai Lake, Tian Xiwei kept her promise to Gu Yun to "praise" him.

"Cough cough~" Xiao Tian took a big gulp of mineral water and glared fiercely at Gu Yun: "My throat is practically on fire, Gu Yun, don't you feel any pain at all?"

Gu Yun: "Let's be reasonable. I said we could fulfill our promise later, but you insisted on saying it now!"

Tian Xiwei bit Gu Yun's wrist with a smack and said fiercely, "But I'm determined to be a person of my word, and I can't break my promise, so it's still your fault."

Gu Yun: 6!
