Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Is the Program Team Deliberately Targeting Gu Zhi?

[Hahahahaha! Jiang Xiangwan is such a little genius!]

[Laughing so hard, Jiang Xiangwan: Anyway, I got to eat, so I don’t care about others.]

[Director’s team: I was terrified at the time.]

When everyone heard this, they all thought it was doable. Fortunately, the pot that the Gu Family cooked and ruined just now wasn’t thrown away. Han Liheng immediately clapped his hands and said, "You’re right. I’ll cook that pot now and give it to the directors to eat."

Sun Chaohua got excited and became very enthusiastic: "I’ll go light the fire for you."

No one cared about the judges’ scores, and they went directly to boil the dates.

Gu Zhi didn’t move, just quietly watched them fool around.

The others were all amused and laughed, except for Mr. Gu and Gu Mu, whose expressions were somewhat unpleasant. But thinking about pranking the director’s team, they didn’t say anything.

The director’s team, even more so, didn’t want to speak.

Having these guests is a real surrender for them!

As a result, the scores weren’t even properly reviewed. After the few village judges finished eating the candied dates from each family, they all unanimously gave a score of ten.

When the director’s team got the scores from each family and announced halfway through, the voice stopped abruptly: "Qin Family 50 points, Jiang Family 50... Did you all plan this together?!"

The parents were all amused and burst into laughter. Father Qin waved his hand: "Scores aren’t important. The most important thing is to have fun. Everyone’s dates are equally delicious."

Mrs. Qin agreed: "That’s right. No matter how you make candied dates in our hometown, they’re delicious. There’s no such thing as bad-tasting ones."

Directors’ team: "..." You better not say this later.

[Hhhh I didn’t expect this result! The judges cooperated well, friendship first, competition second!]

[That’s right, Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin’s words elevated the theme. I really want to try their candied dates!]

[Mrs. Qin: There’s no such thing as bad-tasting dates. Because the bad-tasting ones are eaten by the director’s team, hahahaha!]

Very soon, Han Liheng and the others brought out their cooked dates. When they were just cooked, there was a burnt smell. Now, that burnt smell mixed with the sugar makes it even more intense.

Han Liheng directly shoved the bowl into their hands, coldly leaving behind two words: "Eat it!"

This is for intentionally pranking him!

The director’s team couldn’t help but gag at the smell and glared at him angrily: "Are you sure you want to offend us? There are several more episodes left!"

Hearing this, Han Liheng hesitated a bit, and Sun Chaohua, fearing he would regret it, quickly said: "Anyway, since you’ve already offended them, just let them eat first!"

Realizing this, Han Liheng glared back fiercely, "That’s right, you eat first!"

Director’s team: "..."

In the end, they could only eat the pot of burnt dates, which had no sweetness, only a burnt and bitter taste!

The key issue was, when they took a bite, they couldn’t even bite through. The director was stunned and looked up at them: "Raw?"

Han Liheng cleared his throat and took a step back.

Of course, they’re raw. Was he supposed to cook them thoroughly to eat?!

[Hahaha Jiumin, I really want to see the director’s team’s reaction. Can the cameraman follow them, please?]

[Brother Burger, wake up, you’ve been tricked by Brother Sun, hahahaha!]

[No one thinks that the director’s statement "raw" sounds just like the auspicious words a bride says when she eats raw dumplings when she first enters the door?]

[Don’t say it, really, don’t say it. Pass it on, the Dear Family’s director is going to have a child soon!]

Gu Zhi stood aside, unable to hold back his laughter.

In the end, since there was no clear winner, all the families had dinner together.

Still at the village chief’s house, using the ingredients provided by the show.

After dinner, Gu Zhi was about to go back to the Qin Family to rest, but the show’s crew called him.

They gathered everyone at the square.

Once over there, they realized a simple stage had been set up in the square, with speakers, microphones, pianos, and other musical equipment.

Seeing this, they instantly understood what was going on.

Turning around, they saw the show’s crew had gathered almost all the villagers, who excitedly carried chairs and sat in front of the stage.

The comment section was filled with confusion:

[? I almost left. Are they going to start something?]

[Village party? You all pranked the director earlier, and now it’s payback time, hahaha!]

The director’s team said: "To thank Shui Town’s folks for their warm hospitality, our director’s team has added a temporary segment, inviting six talented guests and your parents to present performances for the villagers.

After the performances, the villagers on site will rate your performances. The one with the highest score will be named the ’Dear Family’ Shui Town Station’s Best Performance, and the show will give a high-ranking hot search with millions of exposures as a prize."

Upon hearing these words from the director, the comments immediately erupted.

[Yet another rating, hahaha, the director’s having a hard time with this issue.]

[They’re really going to perform! Can’t wait, my Yibao is a jack-of-all-trades! Sure to win.]

["Talented" hahaha, the show must be targeting Gu Zhi on purpose, who doesn’t know even though she debuted as an idol, she’s a talentless waste? I want to see how she performs.]

[+1, what can Gu Zhi and Mr. Qin, Mrs. Qin possibly perform?]

For a while, Gu Zhi’s haters in the live stream became active again.

Gu Zhi naturally had no idea what was being said in the comments. For her, performing didn’t matter.

The others were whining upon hearing this news. After last time, Han Liheng already had a shadow over performing and couldn’t help but complain: "Can you guys be human? After tiring us out all day, you still want us to perform?"

The director’s team really wanted to say "can’t," but on the surface, they acted very understanding: "The villagers have taken care of you all day, they just want to see your performance. You wouldn’t be so heartless, right? Would you?"

Han Liheng: "..."

[Hahahaha Han Liheng: I’m at a loss.]

[The director’s team really knows their CPUs!]

The remaining people didn’t want to speak.

Only Gu Yiyi seemed slightly more cheerful, as they finally reached her area of expertise.

She still hadn’t managed to secure any viral topics that afternoon, even though Han Liheng and the others’ pranking of the director’s team had gone viral.

So she had Mr. Gu find the show’s crew to arrange this segment.

With her years of training as a socialite, these performances were nothing to her.

The props prepared by the show’s crew were many, in addition to microphones and pianos, there were also Erhu, Northeast yangko waist drums, handkerchiefs, fans, and various cos outfits.

The focus was on impromptu performances.

Gu Yiyi chose to play the piano without any hesitation.

She didn’t plan to perform with Mr. Gu and Gu Mu, nor were Mr. Gu and Gu Mu inclined to perform in such a setting.

Fans were excited to see her choose the piano.

[Wow, Yiyi is going to play the piano, a level twelve player, performer at the National Theater, sure to win!]

[Playing the piano is great, people here have probably never heard a live piano performance. Yiyi’s performance will definitely amaze them.]

Han Liheng didn’t know what to choose, hesitated for a long time, and finally looked towards the others.

"What are you going to perform?"

Jiang Xiangwan didn’t know either, hesitated for a moment while staring at the props, and then picked up three microphones in a row.

"I want to duet with my parents!"

Sun Chaohua quickly made his choice too, picking a yangko waist drum, streamers, and two handkerchiefs. He said, "I’ll dance the yangko with my parents, it’s an easy way to liven up the atmosphere."

"..." Han Liheng hesitated for a while, and in the end, grabbed a microphone as well.

[Hahaha is the singing and dancing prince back again? Planning to rock the whole place?!]

[No way hahaha, will he break the equipment and owe a few thousand bucks again? Brother Burger must have a trauma by now!]

Sure enough, in the end, Han Liheng didn’t choose to sing and dance.

Dancing was out of the question; he also decided to duet with Father Han!

Finally, only Gu Zhi and Qi Yunlin were left without a choice.

Qi Yunlin hated this kind of segment the most. As a director, he preferred to work behind the scenes, let alone perform on stage. He wouldn’t, nor did he want to.

He hesitated, and then looked at the others before finally speaking, "How about you two perform together?"
