Heartbeat Emergency 14

Chapter 14: Don’t You Guys Think That Zhao Qifei…

At the same time, the bullet comments in the live stream were constantly flooding the screen.

[Ahhh, Shen Xun served soup for Su Jian Yue. She only served it for Su Jian Yue.]

[Zhao Qifei next to them is about to stare his eyes out. LOL, it’s just a pity our Xunxun doesn’t like male alphas.]

[Little Moon eats with such gusto. She hasn’t changed a bit from when she was a child. Can someone make a comparison picture of her eating now and when she was a kid? It would definitely be very cute.]

[To be fair, Su Jian Yue eats a lot, yet her figure is still so good. Can someone tell me how she does it?]

[Want to know +1!]

Su Jian Yue had no idea that her eating habits were being discussed by the netizens. After eating her fill, she turned to Shen Xun beside her. “I’m so full.”

“Are you done eating? If you’re done, let’s go for a walk,” Shen Xun suggested, worried that Su Jian Yue had overeaten.

At this moment, Zhao Qifei, who was next to them, chimed in, “Great idea. Why don’t we all go for a walk together? Yu Lin, do you want to go together?”

Zhao Qifei could see that Yu Lin seemed to want to interact more with Su Jian Yue, so he decided to invite her along. Of course, his main intention was to get to know Shen Xun better. But if he went alone, it would seem a bit abrupt. Inviting another person along would make it seem more natural.

Yu Lin nodded slightly. “Alright, let’s all go for a walk together.”

Shen Xun’s face was expressionless. She shot a faint glance at Zhao Qifei, making a mental note against him. It’s all this person’s fault for being nosy and ruining the time I had alone with my little sister.

And so, the group of them walked out of the villa. The villa’s courtyard was quite large, and there was even a small garden in the back.

Su Jian Yue obediently followed beside Shen Xun. Shen Xun looked at the little puppy next to her and said softly, “Are you hot?”

Su Jian Yue shook her head and pulled Shen Xun’s wrist to a shady spot in the backyard. She pointed to a patch of small flowers nearby. “Older Sister, look. The small garden in this villa is quite nice. When I get back, I want to make one at home too.”

Shen Xun chuckled and nodded. “You can. Your backyard is empty anyway. There’s a swimming pool in the front, so it would be nice to have a small garden in the back.”

“Mhmm, it’s a pity our phones were taken. Otherwise, I would have taken a picture to show Mama and Mommy,” Su Jian Yue chattered on beside Shen Xun.

“It’s okay. We can take a picture when we leave. It’s not like the production team will actually confiscate our phones,” Shen Xun said with a laugh.

“Mhmm.”

The two of them were discussing the flowers and plants in the backyard, leaving Zhao Qifei with no opportunity to interject. Although he was a high school teacher, he came from an ordinary family. He had even taken out a loan of several hundred thousand yuan for the eighty-square-meter apartment he had bought. Thinking about how well-off Su Jian Yue’s family was, he felt a bit sour.

“I’m really a bit envious of Teacher Su. You have a backyard at home, a place to grow flowers and plants. We working-class people can only grow these flowers and plants at home,” Zhao Qifei said with a smile, but his words were somehow uncomfortable to hear.

“It’s alright. It’s mainly because my Mama and Mommy worked very hard when they were young, which is why my sister and I have such good living conditions. I love my Mama and Mommy the most!” Su Jian Yue said, even winking at the camera and making a heart sign with her hands.

The live stream screen was instantly covered by bullet comments.

[Ahhhhhh, our baby is so cute.]

[Sob, I’m envious of Mo Yuxin and Su Yubing. I also want to have such a well-behaved and cute cub.]

[Our baby is so good with her words. Mama’s heart is so soft.]

[Kisses, hugs, and lift her high. Our Little Moon is the cutest cub, even now that she’s grown up!]

[Don’t you guys think that Zhao Qifei was talking strangely? I feel like he was being a bit passive-aggressive.]

[Yes, yes, I think so too. Shen Xun and Su Jian Yue were originally planning to go for a walk by themselves, but he insisted on following them and even dragged Yu Lin along.]

On the other side, Zhao Qifei had originally thought Su Jian Yue would get angry, or at the very least, her expression would darken. Who knew that Su Jian Yue would answer so well, making it seem as if he was the one who had spoken out of turn.

To maintain his scholarly persona as a teacher, Zhao Qifei smiled along.

Shen Xun gave Zhao Qifei a deep look before turning to Su Jian Yue. “Let’s go. Let’s walk around from the backyard to the front and then go back into the villa. Let’s see what other arrangements the production team has for the afternoon. If there are no arrangements, we can go back and rest for a while.”

“Mhmm.” Su Jian Yue nodded obediently. Of course, she would listen to her older sister. Whatever her older sister said, went.

And so, Shen Xun and Su Jian Yue walked toward the front yard together. Yu Lin and Zhao Qifei didn’t manage to say much after that. Yu Lin didn’t mind; there was still half a month left, so there was no rush.

Zhao Qifei also pretended not to care and followed them back into the villa.

Inside the villa, the other guests had also more or less finished their lunch.

Yang Rui looked at the group and smiled. “Everyone can now come to me to get your phones. This phone will accompany you for the next half a month. The phone has been specially set up with only a local area network. This means that only guests can send messages to each other. Of course, I can also send messages to all of you. You will not be able to send messages to the outside world. Similarly, this phone cannot access the internet.”

“Huh? So we’ll be without internet for half a month?” Chen Zhibin wailed. He had wanted to see what people were saying about him online. Now, he couldn’t see anything.

“Yes, everyone will indeed be without internet for half a month. Of course, this phone has more functions than just that. You will all find out later.”

Yang Rui smiled and continued, “Everyone, please create your accounts now and join the group I’ve created. Any news will be announced in the group.”

With that, Yang Rui displayed the QR code and had everyone scan it to join the group.

After all this was done, Yang Rui continued, “Alright, your task now is to clean up the kitchen and dining room. The aunties who cook for us have already left. Starting from this afternoon, you will all have to prepare your own meals. After cleaning up, you can take a short break. We will gather in the living room at three o’clock sharp.”

After the host finished speaking, no one seemed to be leaving. Zhao Qifei and Chen Zhibin were especially eager to show off.

Zhao Qifei stood up and said, “I’m used to doing housework myself. You guys can go up and rest first. I can handle cleaning up here by myself.”

“How can we let you do it alone? Brother Zhao, I’ll help you,” Chen Zhibin said quickly.

“Then why don’t we all do it together? It’ll be faster that way,” Ren Peng suggested.

Shen Xun thought for a moment and felt that it was still not quite right. “We still have half a month to go. If everyone rushes in at once, it will be chaotic and disorganized. Why don’t we split into groups? Every day, five people will be responsible for cooking, washing dishes, and cleaning the kitchen and dining room. The other five will do it the next day. This way, we can alternate, and no one will be too tired, and we won’t be short-handed either.”

“Good idea. It would be a bit crowded if all ten of us went at once,” Ren Peng agreed.

“Then I’ll go help,” Ren Peng said, standing up.

Mao Ning also stood up. “Alright, then I’ll go too.”

With that, four people had gone, leaving one spot left. But no one else moved.

Su Jian Yue wanted to be with Shen Xun, and Shen Xun naturally felt the same. Moreover, Shen Xun didn’t have a good impression of Zhao Qifei and didn’t want to have too much interaction with him.

Yu Lin looked at the remaining people and teased Zheng Tianming, “Teacher Zheng, all the guys have gone to work today. Aren’t you going?”

“Haha, I was thinking of helping you guys tomorrow. As the old saying goes, work is less tiring when men and women work together,” Zheng Tianming said. He didn’t want to be in today’s group either. His first impression neighbor choice was Yu Lin. If he was in this group, he wouldn’t be able to spend much time with her.

But after Zheng Tianming said this, the atmosphere immediately turned cold. Everyone present went about their own business, and no one responded to him.

Zheng Tianming scratched the back of his neck, his toes nearly digging a castle into the floor.

It was Mao Ning, who had already gone to help in the dining room, who called out, “Brother Zheng, come and join us. Don’t struggle anymore.”

Only then did Zheng Tianming give everyone an awkward smile and rush to the dining room.
