I Am A Prodigy

Chapter 348 - Shattered and Scattered Integriy



Chapter 348 Shattered and Scattered Integrity

At that moment, Ye Lingchen had removed the pheasant's outer wrapping. At the same time, he removed all the seasonings from the pheasant belly.

The entire pheasant exterior was covered in a golden layer of oil; the pheasant skin even glowed with light. Even if there was no aroma, the appearance alone was stunning. It produced an uncontrollable desire for one to take a bite.

"Mr. Y!"

At that moment, Zhang Yong screamed violently. His slightly chubby body dashed out at a speed that was completely disproportionate to his physique. He rushed to Ye Lingchen's side and said, "Mr. Y, we're all a team here. You can't eat it alone!"

His eyes were all red as he stared yearningly at Ye Lingchen. "One bite, one bite! If that won't do, just share a bit of pheasant skin with me. Please, please!"

"Director Zhang, we couldn't even borrow fire before this, but now we're suddenly a team?" Arnelle asked amusingly.

"Misunderstanding! It was all a misunderstanding!" Zhang Yong immediately explained himself; his sincerity was appalling. "Don't you know who I am? How could I let you be hungry? It's just a joke, all for the sake of the variety show. I did not expect Y to be so amazing. He could even hand-drill a fire."

The next moment, he looked admirably at Ye Lingchen. "Y is really a great man. He knows everything. With him by your side, anything is possible and greatness can be achieved. To be honest, I've already lived half my life yet I've never seen such a miraculous person before. My admiration comes from the heart. Amazing, really amazing!"

Everyone shot him a disdainful look. Bootlicker! Such a good bootlicker!

He was still a director, after all. Where was his integrity?

"Director, how can you be so shameless!" someone said to him with vigor. "How can you throw away your integrity just for the sake of food! You must be like me! You must eat with dignity!"

When he was done, he looked straight and knelt down to hug Ye Lingchen's thigh, begging, "Y, treat me to a bite..."

"Y, to be honest, I used to be shallow and ignorant. I didn't know greatness when I saw it, and I thought I could stand proud in front of my family with the achievements that I have. I now realize how insignificant I am after meeting you, like a firefly that sees the moon or a small river that meets the sea. Your broad mind, handsome face, and unique temperament deeply affected me. Most importantly, in addition to your appearance, you also have that unfathomable talent. Can you treat me to a bite?"

"Y, when I saw you, I couldn't help but think of a sentence that the ancients said. 'Young men are like the rising sun, illuminating the entire way; the river flows into a mighty current once the hottest period of summer ends; the dragon that has been suppressed will soar again...' He's talking about you! Of course, I say all this not just for a piece of meat. They're compliments from the heart! In fact, I'm grateful enough for being able to smell the food you cooked!"

"Brother Y, I genuinely feel like we've known each other for a long time. We must've been sworn brothers in our last life..."

...

In order to eat a piece of meat, the entire program crew redefined everyone's understanding of shamelessness. It stunned even Chen Xiaoyan. At the same time, she felt kind of proud in her heart because Y was really capable.

Ye Lingchen picked up the Beggar's pheasant and the crowd's eyes followed him insistently. Everyone swallowed their saliva frantically and their face was full of longing.

Then, they saw that Ye Lingchen tear the cooked bird in half. "There's only one pheasant in total, so I'll divide it into half for your program team."

"A kind person! A kind person indeed!" Zhang Yong's face turned serious and he was speechless with unparalleled excitement. "Mr. Y is righteous. He's truly a role model for my generation."

At the end of his speech, he picked up half of the pheasant at a thunderous speed and retreated frantically.

"The director wants to eat it by himself, stop him!"

"F*CK! I won't go easy on you! I'll fight you!"

"Are you guys still human? You even eat all the bones? This bone is mine! DON'T TAKE IT!"

"Don't even think about leaving, thief! Let me have the pheasant butt!"

...

The live stream for the first day of Survival on Deserted Island finally ended. Although there were some accidents that derailed from the script, the effect was surprisingly good. The number of online viewers doubled that of the previous number and praise was unending—it was arguably the most successful edition yet.

Of course, a large part of that was credited to Ye Lingchen. It was practically a one-man show from the beginning till the end as he displayed his extraordinary abilities.

As night fell, the live stream ended and everyone went back to the tent. Arnelle and the three girls walked toward the small bamboo house built by Ye Lingchen. They were eager and excited as it was considered a very romantic place for the girls.

"Oh, by the way, please put these next to your pillow." Ye Lingchen handed a few small balls to Chen Xiaoyan and others.

"What's this? It has a smell, and it smells pretty nice, " Arnelle asked curiously.

"These are some plants that I've picked from the surroundings. It can ward off mosquitoes," Ye Lingchen said plainly.

"Wow! Thank you, Mr. Y!" Arnelle exclaimed. "If you were my boyfriend, I'd be so happy I would die."

Mosquitoes from the wild were formidable. They could leave a mark on the body with just one bite, which was a terrible thing for women. Arnelle and the girls were actually rather worried about that, but they hardly expected Ye Lingchen to be so thoughtful.

Ye Lingchen touched his nose. He could not be bothered with that crazy girl's words.

Back at the tent, Ye Lingchen laid on the ground and found it difficult for him to fall asleep. He thus entered the system interface, and unexpectedly, his popularity value reached 203,578.

The aftermath of the last game with the Sun Nation was still there, and even foreign countries gradually knew of the Y-God's title, hence the continuously-growing popularity value. Coupled with Singer Y's participation in the variety show, with the live stream being full of surprises and startling the audience at every turn, his popularity value increased even more.

Apparently, increasing exposure was the way to go in order to increase popularity as fast as possible.

After struggling for a long time, there was still no advancement from his basic level, so he set that aside first.

It was still difficult to fall asleep after tossing and turning, so Ye Lingchen took a deep breath and decided that he might as well get up and head out of the tent. He climbed up a tree in a couple of swift moves and laid there on a branch. Both his hands were placed behind his head and he looked up at the sky.

He had to admit that the night sky was very beautiful there. It was not shrouded in smog, nor were there any multi-colored lights from various shops. The stars are densely packed together and magnificently dazzling. It was also very peaceful since it was miles away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The only sounds lingering near his ear were the calls of various insects.

Squeak!

At that moment, a crisp sound came from outside his tent, causing Ye Lingchen to raise his brow slightly.

There were still people walking about that late at night?

As he turned to look, two pairs of eyes made direct contact. Chen Xiaoyan was standing on the ground and she looked in surprise at Ye Lingchen sitting on the tree. She then smiled. "You're not asleep yet."

"Mm." Ye Lingchen nodded. "Why haven't you slept yet?"

"I'm just so happy." Chen Xiaoyan looked at Ye Lingchen. Her eyes curled into a crescent-shape and she was all smiles as she looked at Ye Lingchen. "Just thinking about you accompanying me makes me so happy that I can't sleep..."
