Chapter 129 - Are You Participating Because Of Me?\

nJiang Xun sent the message from her personal phone since the phone that the production team had provided her with didn’t have Mufeng’s number on it.
nWhen Mufeng heard the Wechat notification message on his cell phone, he guessed that it was a message from Jiang Xun. Taking out his phone and quickly inspecting it, he realized that his guess was correct.
nMufeng curled his lips. “So you didn’t unfriend me.”
nJiang Xun turned to look at him in surprise, to which Mufeng elaborated, “You have my Wechat, but you haven’t contacted me. I thought you had deleted me.”
nHe didn’t bother hiding this even though they were being filmed.
nJiang Xun: “…”
n! ! ! This is an important point! Jiang Xun and Great President Qin have long been friends on Wechat!
nSo are those people who were trying to force President Qin to look down on Jiang Xun and the people who were trying to curry favor with him embarrassed now?
nJiang Xun clearly never takes the initiative to contact Great President Qin to the point where even he has a problem with it!
nHe must have contacted her on his own initiative.
nMufeng picked up his phone again and replied to her through Wechat. Not necessarily. But if you’re going to be a guest, then I’ll follow.
nJiang Xun: … Mr. Qin, if you don’t want people to misunderstand you, don’t say things that will make people misunderstand you.
nMufeng looked at Jiang Xun with a puzzled look before replying: What misunderstanding?
nIn response, she glared at him angrily. Did he think it funny to play with people like this? She wanted to drag Mufeng to a secluded corner and beat him up!
nHe was the one who had previously blamed her for causing people to misunderstand their relationship, and yet now he was saying and doing things that would do exactly that!
nJiang Xun’s expression turned cold. She was so angry that her fingers trembled as they typed out a message furiously. The repeated mistakes she was making while typing only served to frustrate her even more.
nJiang Xun: How many episodes have I attended as a guest? How many have you attended? Are you doing this because of me? If I quit today, will you quit as well?
nMufeng: Yes.
nTheir phones kept buzzing with notifications. They kept going back and forth, but no one could tell what they were talking about.
nOi, is there something you can’t say out loud? Why do you insist on sending Wechat messages? !
n@unfulfilledlovers do you want us to watch them just chat?
n“Director, can we take photos of their phones?” Zhisheng asked. “They’re just using their phones to chat and aren’t saying a word. It’s not a good thing.”
nShuli pinched the corner of his eyes, thoroughly exhausted. “We can’t since they’re using their own phones. If the production team were to take photos without permission, then we’d be living in fear of Qin Mufeng suing us!”
nHearing that, Zhisheng went to the side and squatted down.
nThey couldn’t afford to offend Qin Mufeng.
nIn the meantime, Mufeng looked at the cameramen who were following them, silently warning them not to try to take pictures of their cell phone conversations. The two cameramen inwardly thought that they wouldn’t dare to do it even if they were given an infinite burst of courage.
nJiang Xun was even angrier when she saw his reply. What is it? What in the world are you saying?
nMufeng looked at the little girl and sighed silently before replying: Both.
nJiang Xun pursed her lips and suddenly stopped in his tracks. She turned around and glared at Mufeng.
nThe audience: ? ? ?
nWhat kind of weird game of Charades were these two playing?
nShuli couldn’t take it anymore and said to the staff member who was still guarding Jiang Xun’s side, “Ask the two of them to talk. Is there something they can’t say out loud?”
nThe staff member said in a low voice, “Director, I don’t have the guts! The two of them… seem to be quarreling. I think Jiang Xun seems to be very angry. Just now, Mufeng was warning the cameramen about something, and it looked like the cameramen were so scared that their souls almost left their bodies!”
n“… How useless!”
n“Well, sir, if you have the balls, then go tell them yourself!”
n“…”
nWhat a rude staff member! Did he still want his year-end bonus or not?!
n“Fine then! I’ll do it!” Shuli gritted his teeth and stood up. If he didn’t set an example for the people working under him, his prestige would be lost.
n*
nJiang Xun’s heart was a mess when Mufeng looked at her. Her fingertips were oddly warm.
nShe lowered her head to look at her phone, trying to type out a response, but her thumbs hovered over the surface of her phone, motionless.
nShe didn’t know what to say.
nMufeng hesitated for a moment. It wouldn’t be appropriate to use Wechat to say the things he wanted to tell her, especially under such circumstances.
nWhile he was hesitating, a voice interrupted his thoughts.
n“Mr. Qin, Jiang Xun.”
nIt was Shuli. He could tell that the atmosphere between the two of them was very strange, but it didn’t seem like they were quarreling.
nDid Jiang Xun look angry at all?!
nShuli couldn’t help but glare at the staff member. He’d reprimand him later for providing false information!
nThus, Shuli mustered up his courage and called out. However, he didn’t expect that this would interrupt Jiang Xun and Mufeng’s conversation.
nMufeng turned his head, his face filled with displeasure.
nShuli fell silent momentarily, but had no choice but to bite the bullet and remind him, “Mr. Qin, Jiang Xun, we’re recording a program. We can’t always chat on our phones. We have to say something.”
nJiang Xun:”…”
nMufeng:”…”
nThe two of them had no choice but to stop chatting for the time being and enter the villa together.
nJiang Xun headed to her room to take a shower first. Considering Mufeng’s status, the production team did not dare to let him share a room with other guests, so they had specially prepared a room for him out of a spare study room in the villa.
nThe production team first brought Mufeng to the bedroom that they had prepared for him.
n“Is the livestream on me now?” Mufeng asked.
n“No, the other guests have also woken up now, so the cameras are on them.”
nMufeng felt relieved and asked, “Which room is Jiang Xun in?”
n“…” The staff member pointed to the room opposite his room with a complicated expression. “It’s right across from your room.”
nMufeng was very satisfied with this arrangement.
nAfter Jiang Xun finished with her shower and tidied herself up, she went downstairs to the dining room to make breakfast.
nThis time, she’d brought a lot of bread, cheese, and ham as well as some soft-boiled eggs from the convenience store. The main reason she’d bought pre-cooked eggs was because raw eggs were fragile and inconvenient to carry enough, otherwise she would definitely have made herself fried eggs.
nShe promptly cut the bread into slices and fried some ham. When she finished, the others still hadn’t showed up yet; they were probably still cleaning their rooms up.
nAnd so, Jiang Xun spread the bread on a baking pan, then placed the fried ham slices and soft-boiled eggs over the bread. Finally, she spread cheese all over the bread and put everything into the oven.
nHowever, that was not enough for Jiang Xun, so she took a frying pan and toasted the rest of the bread.
nAt this time, Jiayi and the others came downstairs.
n“It smells so good. Jiang Xun, what are you doing?” Jiayi walked in and found a topic to talk about with her.
n“I’m toasting some bread for breakfast,” Jiang Xun answered politely.
n“Wow, it smells so good. Do you have any extra?” Jiayi asked again.
n“I’m sorry, I only made some for myself. I haven’t had time to prepare for anyone else.”
nAfter a week of not seeing each other, Jiayi had forgotten that Jiang Xun had a big appetite. He smiled and said, “It’s okay, I forgot. I’ll make my share when you’re done.”
