Chapter 122 – The Pheasant and the Phoenix (3)
The staff handed them a task card and said, “I’ve come to inform you that the chef scheduled to cook for you guys had to leave for a while because his son got into Tsinghua University. So, you’ll have to handle your food for the coming few days, and the crew won’t provide you with any ingredients. You guys don’t have a script so you can just do it however you want. The director said he’ll just pick out the good cuts after we’re done.”
Lin Yueqi agreed with a calm face.
The staff squatting in the yard thought that Lin Yueqi would protest a little like family no. 1 and no. 2, but she didn’t. She even asked, “Since they’re not providing ingredients, can we take the ingredients on the hill with us?”
“Of course. You guys can join family no. 2 later and go up the hill to pick vegetables and hunt. We’ve already prepared the tools for you.”
Lin Yueqi wondered. “Huh? Are we not doing our task with family no. 3 today?”
The staff member said, “No. 3 is with no. 1 today. The four groups have to all get to know each other.”
After sending the staff off, Lin Yueqi returned to the room and began packing up.
Meanwhile, the staff squatting in the yard began a heated discussion:
“So after family no. 4 topples family no. 3’s screenwriter, they’re going to start targeting no. 2 as well?”
“I’ve been watching the camera footage I shot over the past two days for no. 4 and god their interactions are so awkward. Thank god that fat girl of theirs is still pretty good in front of the camera.”
“I heard the doctor say that they don’t even sleep in the same bed. Could it be…Those two aren’t a couple at all, aren’t they? They never even kissed since the show started.”
“It’s not that hard to understand okay…Look at the pair in no. 2, they’re also the rich second generation + actress pairing, but aren’t they real sweet? No. 4 is definitely going to be compared to no. 2 if they meet. Liu Yu and her husband are so sweet on the camera, but did you even see Lin Yueqi holding hands with Lu Ting? Did they kiss? Let’s not talk about this anymore, it’ll be bad if someone hears.”
“It’s no surprise that Lu Ting doesn’t like Lin Yueqi anyway. After all, Lin Yueqi’s one of those rural gold diggers from the hills. She doesn’t have the skill but she still likes to act aloof. Family no. 2 still has their screenwriter so I’m sure the couple plot triggers must be super cute. This isn’t something Lin Yueqi and Lu Ting can compare with them on.”
“…”
Actually, it wasn’t just the staff. Both family no. 1 and no. 2 are all waiting to see no. 4 embarrass themselves.
Both family no. 1 and no. 2 have also heard of what happened with no. 4’s screenwriters.
Even though family no. 3 doesn’t have a scriptwriter either, Song Renze and his son, Mumu, has participated in similar programs before.
However, family no. 4 was different. Lin Yueqi and Lu Ting aren’t married and they don’t even seem to have much affection for each other. Their hearts aren’t in sync and they have no script so they’ll definitely make a lot of mistakes, and they’ll have even less of an opportunity to show anything on the show.
Family no. 4’s plot points will definitely come out terrible after editing.
Family no. 4 was originally the big topic starter and naturally, the audience will pay more attention to them. However, they’re sure to completely dislike them after the show airs.
Family no. 1 and no. 2 smugly believed that they’ll definitely stand out in comparison to no. 4.

Family no. 2’s Liu Yu is an idol actress and her husband, Ning Hao, is also a rich second generation, but his family background isn’t as amazing as Lu Ting. Their daughter is 6 years old and her name is Ning Tiantian.
This little girl is quite a needy one. When she first arrived at the village, she hated how dirty the floor was and wouldn’t get down no matter what. She cried her heart out.
