I Am Rich

11

After the six people moved into the wooden house, they first did a house tour and then divided the rooms. Finally, after the group activities were over, everyone went back to their own room to wash up.

Guan Zhiyi lay on the bed for a while after showering and changed into pajamas. Their cell phones were taken away in the afternoon, and now only the sponsor's cell phone was issued for them to use.

After watching video for a while, Guan Zhiyi's stomach started to growl with hunger.

They all arrived in the afternoon, reasonably dinner should be settled by the house, but the "evil" program apparently will not prepare any food for them, so after everyone is busy returning to their own room, the dinner thing is delayed.

Guan Zhiyi originally wanted to put up with it, but the later it got the more hungry she became......She carefully thought about it, when she looked around the kitchen before, there seemed to be some food in the refrigerator. So she quickly put on her coat and sneaked out of the room.

Her room is on the third floor of the house, and the kitchen is on the first floor. When she went downstairs, she happened to bump into Lin Jiaer on the second floor.

"Zhiyi, are you going downstairs too." It's already late at night, and Lin Jia'er was wearing a nightgown, however she's still in full makeup!

Guan Zhiyi's heart shriveled up, oh no, she just took a shower and had already removed her make-up. They will be compared in front of the camera: the other party was beautiful, while she looks like a noodle in clear soup**.

(**plain)

She will definitely get scolded by her agent again.

But it's also not right for her to go back now, so Guan Zhiyi had no choice but to greet her: "I'm a little hungry, I want to find something to eat."

Lin Jiaer's eyes lit up: "Me too, I only had breakfast this morning, and didn't eat lunch, I'm currently starving to death."

Guan Zhiyi: "That's right, let's go together."

"Yeah, okay."

The two went downstairs side by side, but when they reached the first floor, they heard some noise coming from the kitchen.

The two stared at each other and went to the kitchen door together. Only then did they find that Xiao Ran was standing inside, holding a kitchen knife while rustily cutting broccoli.

Hearing footsteps, Xiao Ran also turned his head to look over.

The three of them looked at each other.

But Xiao Ran only froze for two or three seconds, and soon showed a smile, "I am very hungry, but too embarrassed to call you guys, so I come to the kitchen to find something to eat. Are you hungry too?"

Xiao Ran indeed deserved to be the hottest idol in the past two years. With such a smile, you can see the lights in the kitchen glowing.

Guan Zhiyi is not familiar with him, and she has always reminded herself that she can't let the crew edit their CP, so she doesn't know what to say for a while. On the contrary, Lin Jiaer was very enthusiastic, she immediately walked over when she saw him cutting the broccoli, "We all came to the kitchen because we were hungry. I didn't expect Teacher Xiao to already be here. What are you going to do."

"Just call me Xiao Ran." Xiao Ran said with a smile, "I just want to cook something to eat casually, but the truth is I'm not very good at it."

In this kind of variety show, diligence will always be praised.

As soon as Lin Jiaer heard this, she wanted to show herself off,"I'm not too good at it either, but let me help you, It'll be a hard work if you do it alone."

Xiao Ran: "Even if I work hard, I still can't do it."

"It's okay, I'll help you, I'll help you. Besides cutting vegetables, what else do you need to prepare?"

"Scramble a few eggs? You can't get full just by eating vegetables."

"Okay."

The kitchen is not very big, Xiao Ran and Lin Jia'er are busy inside, Guan Zhiyi can not intervene with anything, however it was definitely not good to leave directly, so she had to stand on the sidelines to watch them.

But when she was watching, she found that when the two people said, "I don't know how to do it," they were really not joking.

It was just a scrambled egg and a boiled dish, but the two of them nearly knocked over the pan….

"Ah-" Lin Jiaer threw the eggs into the pan and it made a crackling noise. She was startled, screaming and hiding behind Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran, who is also a novice in the kitchen, immediately tried to turn off the fire when he saw the situation. As a result, his hand that reached over is sprayed with oil, he immediately retracted it.

"Hiss ......"

Lin Jiaer: "Xiao Ran, are you all right!"

"It's okay, it's okay, let's turn off the fire first, there may be some water in it."

"Okay, okay, first turn off the fire ...... how did water get in, is it from the spatula, — Oh no, your arms are red, what should I do?"

"It's okay ......"

"Or let me do it." Guan Zhiyi couldn't stand it anymore, she just stepped forward and said,"I'll do it, Teacher Xiao you quickly rinse your arm with cold water, Jia'er, go get our medicine box."

The two kitchen novices take a step back subconsciously when they see Guan Zhiyi use the spatula in a familiar manner.

"Yes, yes, rinse with water first." Lin Jiaer reacted and pulled Xiao Ran's hand to the sink. Then she herself responded to what Guan Zhiyi said, went upstairs to find the medicine box.

There were only two of them in the kitchen. Xiao Ran said to her while rinsing in the cold water, "Thank you, Zhiyi."

Guan Zhiyi politely smiled at him, "It's okay, I can cook, it also happens to be better for me to do it."

Xiao Yan stared at her skillful action and said unexpectedly, "You look quite good at it."

"I do it often."

"Often?" There aren't many artists who can cook often.

Guan Zhiyi: "It's cheaper to eat at home."

Xiao Ran: "Huh?"

Guan Zhiyi was taken aback.

Heh...why did she tell the truth? She was very self-reliant in college, when she was short of money, buying vegetables and cooking it herself is really much cheaper, but this is still being recorded. Guan Zhiyi sweated slightly, and forced herself to answer again: "I mean, it's very convenient to do it yourself at home."

"Oh."

After a while, Lin Jiaer found the medicine box and came back.

"This is a scald medicine, Xiao Ran, come and apply it."

Xiao Ran: "Okay, thank you."

The two of them went to the living room to apply the medicine. While Guan Zhiyi scrambled the eggs, she found a chicken breast from the refrigerator and made a dish with the broccoli that Xiao Ran cut.

After all the food was done, Guan Zhiyi brought them all out. But instead of sitting down to eat, she ran upstairs and called others to come over.

The few people upstairs were actually hungry too, so they came down and swept up a meal.

After eating, everyone goes back to their rooms to sleep.

The next day, the artists began to go through the process of the show: morning run, healthy breakfast, grocery shopping, lunch, strength training… 

Among the six members, three of them can cook, but the only skilled ones doing it are Guan Zhiyi and Hou Lu, so a few days down the road, the task of buying food, cooking and other tasks regarding diet is handed over to the two.

Soon, a week passed.

During this week, the tasks and fitness intensity of the program team made Guan Zhiyi a little tired, however she was happy that she had only made a handful of interactions with Xiao Ran throughout the week! Now, when the broadcast aired, they will not find anything to scold her!

_____

Wednesday, a week later, is a holiday given by the show.

This day was considered to be a day off. The artists can do other work or take a break, and they also got their mobile phones back.

As soon as she got her phone, she wanted to send a message to Qi Chengyan, because at first she didn't know that she had to hand the phone over, so she didn't have time to tell Qi Chengyan about it. Later, although there's a sponsor's phone, she was under surveillance 24 hours a day, it's not easy to make any calls.

But at the moment she kept deleting the message over and over, she suddenly does not know what to say.

She doesn't know whether he is busy.

"Zhiyi."

Just as Guan Zhiyi was walking down from the third floor, Xiao Ran also came out of his room.

Guan Zhiyi was a little surprised to see him here, "You're still here today."

Xiao Ran nodded: "I didn't have any work today, how about you."

"Me too."

Xiao Ran walked over: "By the way, can I ask you a question?"

"Ah ...... you ask."

Xiao Ran touched his chin, somewhat helpless and aggrieved: "Did I make you uncomfortable in any way?"

Guan Zhiyi was taken aback, Xiao Ran who is dozens of times more popular than her! Suddenly asked her this kind of question!

"How, how is it possible?"

Xiao Ran: "Then why do I feel that you have been avoiding me? It also seems that you don't really want to talk to me."

Xiao Ran's words are correct. Although others may not be able to see it, the person involved can still feel it.

For example, every time everyone wanted to go out to buy groceries, Guan Zhiyi, as a more experienced person in this field, was asked to lead the team in groups. Then, she would always assign him to another group, once or twice it was fine, but after a few days, it kept happening again and again.

Also there is dishwashing after dinner, if Guan Zhiyi was in the kitchen, as soon as he went in she would silently exit.

When it comes to working out, he is very experienced in this area. Sometimes he wanted to help Guan Zhiyi, but it seemed that she would always slip away in various ways. Not to mention the usual chatting, she also slipped away very fast.

Hiss ...... this was a difficult task to do ah, and certain people still asked him to take care of her.

When Guan Zhiyi heard him say this, she was really sweating behind her back: "Teacher Xiao! I have absolutely no opinion on you, nor any discomfort."

Xiao Ran shrugged and said with a smile: "Hey look, everyone has already called me by my first name this week, you're the only one who still keeps calling me Teacher Xiao."

Guan Zhiyi was so embarrassed about the situation: "You are also my idol. Well, I actually...just get nervous in front of the camera."

"Is that so?"

"Yeah......"

Xiao Ran nodded: "That's good, I was worried about whether I'm making you unhappy."

Guan Zhiyi shook her head like a rattle.

Xiao Ran smiled and said, "Then let's continue to cheer up for the next recording."

"Um!"

"I hope you won't be so polite to me from now on."

Guan Zhiyi coughed lightly, "Okay, okay ......"

Xiao Yan smiled and turned around to go downstairs.

Guan Zhiyi looked at his back and breathed a sigh of relief, was she too obvious?

On the other side, Xiao Ran walked out of the wooden house and directly got into the nanny car. After sitting down, he took out his cell phone and dialed a phone number.

"Hello." The person he called picked it up.

Xiao Ran leaned his back lazily: "Young master Qi, are you free today, let's have dinner together."

"Can't go, something's come up."

Xiao Ran: "Tsk... it's really hard to make an appointment with you."

Qi Chengyan laughed a little and asked, "How is she?"

"Zhi Yi ah."

"Otherwise?"

Xiao Ran smiled: "Pretty good, but your sister is too difficult to approach."

Qi Chengyan was a little surprised: "Difficult to approach?"

"Yes, I originally wanted to take good care of her, but in the end, she didn't give me any chance and stayed away from me."

Qi Chengyan asked rhetorically, "How are you going to take care of her?"

Xiao Ran is in the entertainment industry and knows this convenient thing very well, and Qi Chengyan is his close friend, so he directly said:" We will also have another cooperation together in the future, so I want to appear more often with her in front of the camera. More interaction will make her more popular. Actually, I’m fine. I don’t need to get more popular anymore, but Zhiyi may need it...I thought if we could form a CP, it would be good for her."

"A CP?" Qi Chengyan immediately frowned.

"Yeah, you think it's feasible too, right-"

"It's not feasible."

Xiao Ran was stunned: "What, why?"

"I asked you to take care of her in your life, not to let you form some cp and faking your feelings in front of the camera." Qi Chengyan simply said, "Can you be normal, Xiao Ran."

Xiao Ran had a question mark on his face: "Hey, hello? this is the highest concern I can give to her, and you actually think that I'm abnormal!"

"Don't lead her in that direction."

"Why not, this is for her--wait, Qi Chengyan, is there something wrong with you?"

"What's wrong with me?"

Xiao Ran suddenly laughed: "Don't let me speculate...I seriously doubt that the little girl is really just your sister?"
