Chapter 82 Change of Bindings: "Shocking News".

Ye Hantao moved away from Ren Lang at lightning speed.

He took a step back and bumped into someone on the back. Turning his head, he saw Cheng Zhao standing right next to him.

“You’re lucky,” he said softly. “I don’t want to buy local specialties.”

Ye Hantao recalled the open and covert stakes from last night and proudly straightened her back.

She is no longer the Ye Hantao of the past; now, she is stronger and luckier.

Ren Lang stared intently at the pile of things in his hand, his face turning pale and then flushed.

He touched it!

He touched it down from his hair!

fuck!

The intense physical nausea made Ren Lang forget all about elegance.

He staggered towards the outdoor pool outside the shop, gagging as he ran.

Bird poop!

He touched bird poop!

vomit!

The customers eating hot pot under the glass dome also saw this scene and secretly suppressed their laughter.

Jin Shiyue crossed her arms and said sarcastically, "Serves you right."

Chen Xiaofeng yelled at the top of his lungs, "Brother, why are you running away! It's just a pile of bird poop!!"

If that bird landed on his head, he would definitely grab it and chase after the other people on the show, threatening to smear it on their faces.

As soon as he finished speaking, the others cast disdainful glances at him.

Right before we started eating, why were we talking about bird poop?

The viewers in the live stream were practically bursting with laughter.

[Imagine the psychological trauma Ren Lang is experiencing, lol.]

[Bird: Hehe, perfect delivery.]

[Enjoying hot pot. Sending you some all-natural ingredients!]

[The funniest part wasn't Cheng Zhao collecting local specialties, hahaha, his mouth is always on the path of poisoning people, never stopping.]

[That's terrible, absolutely terrible! He was just one step away from falling under the glass dome, and they managed to pull that on his head?!]

I ate at this restaurant when I traveled to Fuzhou. Those birds usually don't fly around here, haha.

[Rich women spotted here! This restaurant costs several thousand yuan per person!]

I saw Ye Hantao try to stop him, but he reached out and touched her too quickly.

This is the grievance of the entire board of directors of Aurelia! They hate that he can just hire anyone to shoot commercials!

[The haters really know how to find an opening (thumbs up.jpg)]

Director Wan quickly instructed his staff to switch the camera from the main live stream to Ren Lang; this was an accident that even the script couldn't have produced!

Ye Hantao gazed at Ren Lang's retreating figure by the pool, and the image of birds circling in mid-air flashed before her eyes again.

So this is what Luck-1 really is.

If Ren Lang's gratitude value is negative, then she'll be unlucky. If her gratitude value is positive, will she be unlucky?

Ye Hantao longed for the system to return and answer her questions even more.

The system should be able to unbind her from Ren Lang.

While Ren Lang washed his hands, Ye Hantao and the others were led to their seats by a waiter.

The air was filled with the aroma of butter and spicy food.

Disgusted by Ren Lang's bird droppings, He Qiang sat down and first took a few sips of water.

Ye Hantao sat opposite He Qiang.

On the left is Jin Shiyue, and on the right is Cheng Zhao.

Their table was made up of two long tables joined together, covered with a whole gold velvet tablecloth.

It shimmered in the sunlight.

The hibiscus flowers embroidered on the tablecloth are in full bloom, and koi fish chase each other, their tails swaying.

Ye Hantao stroked the hibiscus flower with her fingertips.

My own bed sheets also have flowers, but not as vibrant; they are all subtle patterns made of silver threads.

The waiter handed them napkins to wipe their hands.

Su Yi'ang was eager to try it: "Before I came to Rongcheng, I specifically looked up some restaurants worth eating at online, and this one was one of them!"

"I checked too." Ye Hantao looked up, puzzled. "This place isn't listed."

Su Yi'ang scratched his head, "Impossible, right? I found their website as soon as I searched."

Gu Fanghao noticed that Cheng Zhao and Jin Shiyue had taken the seats on either side of Tao Tao, so he could only sit next to Teacher He Qiang.

"Tao Tao, which restaurants did you check out?"

When Ye Hantao heard Gu Fanghao ask, she was about to answer when she suddenly realized something.

Is the average price per person at this hot pot restaurant too high?

Therefore, you definitely won't find it in restaurant recommendations that default to a price of tens of yuan per person.

Ye Hantao touched her ear and lied without batting an eye, saying, "The restaurants I searched for are all very expensive. I'll treat you to one another day."

[Disease progression: 27.8%]

【6666】

[He constantly flaunts his wealth in front of his classmates.]

[Liao Jiayue held a press conference to apologize, and you're just copying her script?]

[Hilarious, you guys are sober now.]

[Since you think Liao Jiayue's words were problematic, why did you criticize Ye Hantao back then?]

[Jin Shiyue even gave Ye Hantao two sets of skincare products back then, and you guys weren't anything special then (speechless.jpg)]

[Ye Hantao may not have intended to show off, but shouldn't she at least consider Gu Fanghao's self-esteem? Yesterday's garment steamer already made Gu Fanghao quite uncomfortable.]

[Gu Fanghao's eyes lit up. Don't make them feel awkward about the loan, thank you.]

Gu Fanghao couldn't wait to set a date with Ye Hantao for dinner.

She wasn't going to an expensive restaurant, but rather to the place Ye Hantao mentioned another day.

This means that after recording this episode, regardless of whether she can record the following episodes, the relationship between the two will not be severed.

Gu Fanghao found it increasingly wonderful.

Then she heard Tao Tao say, "If you have any favorite restaurants, recommend them to me too."

Crack.

Gu Fanghao woke up from her dream.

Tao Tao is certified by chefs as having a golden tongue. She often eats either boxed meals from film crews or small restaurants where the average price is 30 to 50 yuan. Can Tao Tao get used to these kinds of meals?

Gu Fanghao leaned towards Tao Tao and said in a very low voice, "I only eat at small restaurants on the street."

There are a few restaurants that occasionally open in shopping malls, but their taste is nowhere near that of Jinwan Restaurant.

Ye Hantao blinked lightly, "Well, what a coincidence, the place I took you to eat was also a small street-side restaurant."

Anyway, now that the "lying persona" has been established, there's no need to emphasize how expensive it is anymore.

Gu Fanghao felt like crying again.

Tao Tao was so understanding of her.

As they spoke, the waiter distributed personalized menus to them.

Ye Hantao flipped open the menu, her face turning bitter. "The show's menu is also a blind box format."

The others busied themselves opening and looking through it.

There are ten blind boxes on the menu, each priced between 1 and 10 points.

[Note: The blind box contains ingredients including houttuynia cordata, cilantro, Wagyu short ribs, geoduck, gooseneck vine, blue lobster, vegetable platter, mushroom brand, meat rolls, etc.]

The production team was surprisingly considerate; the blind boxes containing houttuynia cordata and cilantro came in separate pots.

Director Wan's reminder came late: "Everyone must choose one blind box and eat it all, otherwise 5 points will be deducted."

Su Yi'ang protested, "I don't even have 5 points in my entire fortune!"

"Negative points mean you have to sleep in the yard at night."

"..."

Ren Lang returned at that very moment.

My already unpleasant mood reached its peak when I heard the words "negative points".

His slicked-back hair, which he had just combed that morning, was now loose and dripping wet. His right hand, which had been touching his hair, was scrubbing itself three or four times with hand soap in the sink until it was bright red.

If it weren't for Ye Hantao's inexplicable negative emotions, he would never have embarrassed himself in front of the camera.

In the near future, there will inevitably be pictures of him touching bird droppings on his head circulating online.

As soon as he sat down, Jin Shiyue suddenly covered the tip of his nose with his hand.

"Where did this smell come from?"

Ren Lang suppressed his anger, but his face was full of smiles, and his eyes were also filled with indulgence, as if he were looking at a friend who was being unreasonable. "Ruby, you're joking again."

Jin Shiyue's expression suddenly turned cold.

At this moment, Ye Hantao put down the menu and casually reminded her, "Shi Yue's English name is Aurora."

[Current gratitude level: -0.1%]

[Due to the negative emotions the associated target has towards the host, the host's luck for the next month is reduced by 5.]

"?!"

Ren Lang almost tore his pants to keep from losing his composure on camera!

Why is Ye Hantao experiencing negative emotions again?!

He only mispronounced Jin Shiyue's English name, is that such a heinous crime?

Ye Hantao, who also heard the system notification, was speechless.

She never expected that even the slightest dissatisfaction would be categorized as negative emotions by Ren Lang's system.

Su Yi'ang also misremembered names. First, it was the TV series Liao Jiayue starred in, and then it was the character name Gu Fanghao played in the series, but they had just met and didn't know each other before.

Aren't Ren Lang and Sister Shi Yue friends?

I was reminded of my English name by Sister Shiyue once, but I still managed to pronounce it wrong this time.

Of course, Ren Lang may simply have had a bad memory.

Ye Hantao had to admit that she had been holding a grudge all along. Suddenly being forcibly bound to a system that could influence one's fate, who wouldn't be angry?

Even having dinner at the same table as Ren Lang and recording the same variety show made Ye Hantao a little annoyed.

The key issue is that I can't mention this to anyone else.

As the class monitor, she was able to get her phone back by contacting the driver. While on the bus, she even thought about writing it down to tell her family, but in the end, she left no trace.

Ren Lang resisted the urge to glare at Ye Hantao, but couldn't help looking up at the sky.

He was relieved to see that all he could see was a glass dome.

No need to worry about another bird flying down on his head while he's eating.

Ten minutes later, the blind boxes chosen by everyone were brought over.

Ye Hantao saw the waiters carrying three-tiered wooden boxes to the table, each labeled with a number.

She chose number 7. Before opening the blind box, she rubbed her hands together earnestly, saying, "Please don't have any houttuynia cordata, please don't have any houttuynia cordata, please don't have any houttuynia cordata."

Of the four members of my family, only my mother likes the taste of houttuynia cordata; my father, older brother, and I don't like it.

The wooden box was opened to reveal a plate of processed lobster meat, a plate of thinly sliced ​​short ribs, and below that, a vegetable platter and a mushroom platter.

Ye Hantao was no longer worried, so she went to look at other people's blind boxes.

Ren Lang looked at the cilantro and houttuynia cordata in his box, his face darkening slightly.

Chen Xiaofeng sighed, "Not surprising at all."

[Pfft, is Ren Lang here on this show to undergo a tribulation?]

[Hahaha, he's so unlucky!]

[Ye Hantao was incredibly lucky while playing mahjong last night, while her teammates were cursed with bad luck, hahaha.]

The hot pot meal is over.

Except for Ren Lang, who kept feeling nauseous, everyone else ate to their heart's content.

Kim Shi-wol rarely has a hearty appetite.

Seeing Ren Lang get the short end of the stick brought her more pleasure than seeing He Qiang get the short end of the stick; the former was more satisfying.

The afternoon's activities included visiting the panda base and the local cultural center.

Ren Lang was terrified the whole way, fearing that he would be unlucky and lose face again, and he even put his dealings with Ye Hantao out of his mind.

Fortunately, the second half of the race went smoothly, and nothing else happened.

As night fell, the group returned to the cabin.

The production team won't be providing breakfast tomorrow morning, so they'll draw lots to decide which four people will make it.

The ten cards were revealed, and the four people who drew hearts were Gu Fanghao, Chen Xiaofeng, Wu Xia, and Ren Lang.

Su Yi'ang exclaimed "Wow!"

"There really is a Brother Ren!"

Others were not surprised by the result either.

Chen Xiaofeng clicked his tongue lightly, "Don't say that, it makes it seem like the three of us have pretty average luck."

Ren Lang's smile was forced.

He had always experienced the benefits of improved luck; when had he ever been this unlucky?

In the evening, everyone went back to their own rooms.

After taking a shower, Ye Hantao changed into a clean and easy-to-use bathroom.

She sat on the bed looking through tomorrow's task card and happened to see the food street check-in.

So Ye Hantao reminisced about the taste of the lobster meat and short ribs from the hot pot lunch she had at noon.

The menu description says it features blue lobster and Australian M9 Wagyu short ribs, with a price approaching 1,000 yuan per kilogram.

My family has also made pan-fried short ribs, which were fresh steaks that my dad bought from the market, and they tasted almost exactly the same.

The school cafeteria doesn't serve this dish, but they do have black pepper beef tenderloin, which costs 10 yuan a serving and tastes just like beef.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Ye Hantao jumped off the bed and opened the door, "Sister Shiyue?"

"These are the five magazines I brought." Jin Shiyue felt that reading physical magazines was more intuitive, so she shoved the magazines into Ye Hantao's arms. "Tell me which one you like in style."

Ye Hantao asked, puzzled, "And then?"

Jin Shiyue looked at her like she was an idiot. "Then I'll take you to shoot a double cover, okay? Did you forget what you promised me last time?"

She still hasn't answered that day!

Ye Hantao didn't want Jin Shiyue to waste her favor for a double cover, so she quickly said, "Sister Shiyue, I don't want to shoot a double cover."

Kim Shi-wol made the decision, "I'll arrange a solo cover for you."

【?!!!!】

[Switch to a regular audience channel! I don't want to listen!]

[Don't share this! Magazine covers are irrelevant to ordinary people like us. Some popular celebrities are probably envious of Ye Hantao though.]

[Kim Shi-wol is such a domineering CEO!]

Jin Shiyue set a time: "Tell me what you want to be in the magazine when you eat breakfast tomorrow morning."

If you're not picky, you can submit all five, but they must be double covers with her on them for the editor-in-chief to agree, and you don't know how long you'll have to wait in line.

Ye Hantao had seen many celebrities on magazine covers online, all of them with their names and surnames.

This wasn't something the magazine approached us on their own initiative; we definitely had to use Sister Shiyue's connections and relationships, and every bit we used was precious.

More than herself, Shi Yue, who is still working in the modeling industry, needs these things.

"Sister Shiyue, you really don't need to."

"No, you have to film it."

Jin Shiyue dared not delay any longer.

On the bus back to the guesthouse, Ren Lang used his persuasive skills to present the magnificent future of the fashion industry to everyone.

She was tempted back then and doesn't regret it now, so it's hard to say whether Ye Hantao won't be tempted.

“You’re not even twenty yet, and you’ve never seen anything like this before, so you must be curious,” Jin Shiyue said firmly. “I’ll show you all of this so that no one can fool you with empty promises.”

Ye Hantao thought that the "other person" that Sister Shiyue mentioned was Ren Lang, who had recently invited her to shoot an advertisement.

She had already heard Ren Lang's electronic voice from the system; it would be too stupid to be fooled again.

Why did Jin Shiyue and Ren Lang break up? Didn't Jin Shiyue openly display her prejudice against Ren Lang?

[I don't understand either. Looking at Kim Tok-wol's past resume, her first major magazine cover was recommended by Aurelia, and her first fashion show was also done by Aurelia.]

[Yes, it's fair to say Ren Lang is Jin Shiyue's benefactor!]

[Can you please stop downplaying Jin Jie's personal abilities? Just because Ren Lang is now the creative director of Aurelia doesn't mean he's always been very capable.]

[When Jin Shiyue was shooting her first magazine issue and walking the runway, Ren Lang hadn't even started out with Aurelia yet!]

Ye Hantao and Jin Shiyue were talking at the door when they suddenly saw Yuan Kai push the door open and come out.

The three of them stared at each other, wide-eyed.

Yuan Kai looked at the lights in the corridor, then at the lights outside Ye Hantao's door; behind him was the pitch-black bedroom.

A few seconds later, Yuan Kai silently knocked on the door of Chen Xiaofeng and Cheng Zhao's room.

"Old Chen, Cheng Zhao, are you there?"

The person who opened the door was Cheng Zhao. He leaned against the door frame, his eyes filled with impatience. "What is it?"

“Our water heater broke down, and the light bulb just blew out.” Yuan Kai was speechless as he mentioned it. “Ren Lang is covered in foam and wants to borrow your bathroom.”

Cheng Zhao: "..."

Ye Hantao & Jin Shiyue: "..."

The audience: "..."

How can someone be this unlucky?!

Cheng Zhao raised an eyebrow. "Chen Xiaofeng is in the bathroom. You'll have to wait a little longer."

Yuan Kai thanked them and went downstairs to ask the production team to send someone to change the light bulb.

Ye Hantao listened blankly to the series of system notifications, while Shi Yue next to her obviously didn't hear anything and was still laughing at Ren Langzhen's bad luck.

[The target Jin Shiyue's gratitude towards the host has dropped to -70%, making it impossible to change the binding.]

[Beep, the list of people waiting to be bound within the current area has been updated, totaling 7.]

[The target has been changed from "Ye Hantao" to "Gu Fanghao". Confirm?]

[Congratulations, host, on rebinding to: Gu Fanghao.]

Ye Hantao: "?!!"

Shocking news!!!
