Chapter 173: Chapter 167 Being a Human Trafficker at the Kindergarten!
Chen Xixi originally didn’t want to go to dinner with Lu Ziqi’s dad, but she couldn’t resist Lu Ziqi who really liked her a lot.
After spending the day together, Lu Ziqi completely regarded Chen Xixi as a very poor but good friend.
Thanks to her good friend Lu Ziqi, Chen Xixi had her first dining experience in a Michelin restaurant.
The high-end decor and exquisite dishes in the restaurant finally let Chen Xixi experience what it feels like to be rich, but it felt mostly unreal, perhaps due to the great difference from her usual life.
Lu Ziqi really knew how to be born into a good life.
She glanced again at Zhou Jinyuan who was eating slowly, seated opposite her.
President Zhou also knew how to choose his birth.
After dinner, Chen Xixi hitched a ride back to her apartment with Zhou Jinyuan.
Before getting out of the car, Zhou Jinyuan turned to look at Chen Xixi who was sitting in the passenger seat and said seriously, "As long as I’m here, there will be no underhanded practices in the program, and no predetermined winners. Just focus on thinking about how you can win."
With those words, Chen Xixi felt a bit more reassured.
But who knows if these were just superficial words from a capitalist?
After all, as Yichen stated in front of the live camera, as a sponsor who fears affecting the show’s reputation, it’s possible they could have specifically clarified things.
Chen Xixi half believed it, then with a slight smile and a bootlicking grin on her face, she said, "Okay, President Zhou, if everyone in the world were as fair and just as you, Fan Xian wouldn’t need to assassinate Emperor Qing, and Ye Qingmei’s long-held wish would be fulfilled, and the world would be wonderful."
? There’s no historical record of such a thing; he assumed it must be from some popular TV show or novel.
Zhou Jinyuan raised his eyebrows, "What wish?"
"Not to tolerate because of nobility, not to deprive because of poverty, not to judge by wealth, no oppression or bondage, everyone has the right to freedom, everyone is born equal, without distinctions of rank, seeking the light, each person a dragon."
Zhou Jinyuan chuckled, "Flattery accepted, hurry back and rest."
"Okay, you also go back and rest early." Chen Xixi unbuckled her seatbelt and stepped out of the car.
Just as Chen Xixi closed the car door, the passenger window slowly rolled down.
Thinking President Zhou might have something else to say, she bent down and looked toward the man sitting in the driver’s seat, "What is it, President Zhou? Anything else?"
Zhou Jinyuan looked at her, his lips slightly curved, "Keep it up."
Chen Xixi’s eyes sparkled, "Thank you, President Zhou, I will do my best!"
Jin Cheng couldn’t ride in his uncle’s car, so he asked Lu Ziqi’s dad for a ride.
In the car, he finally remembered why he thought Lu Ziqi looked familiar during the previous live broadcast.
It was because Lu Ziqi’s dad had once taken Lu Ziqi to their house.
Normally, too many people went to his house bearing gifts, and he wouldn’t remember those who didn’t come very often, plus he wasn’t often at home.
He had a bit of an impression of this bratty kid solely because he felt a spontaneous affection to hug the kid, but the kid coldly rejected him.
Unexpectedly, today this bratty kid changed his usual aloof attitude and actually let Chen Xixi hug him.
Tsk, seeing a beautiful woman, the brat’s standards are gone.
Truly promising.
[Oh my gosh! President Zhou is so gentle! Is this really the same President Zhou who is stern and unapproachable?]
[Ahhh! President Zhou personally clarified that there’s no insider dealing in the program! That’s great! Finally, I can watch with peace of mind!]
[Can you guys be sober for once! The program’s sponsor definitely wouldn’t admit if there’s a problem with the show!]
[Is President Zhou into Chen Xixi? I feel like there’s something off between those two!]
Back at the apartment, Chen Xixi successfully received Zheng He’s disdainful look.
Han Qianyi eyed Chen Xixi, her expression saying, "If looks could kill."
Sitting on the sofa, Zheng He sarcastically opened his mouth, "Hooked up with President Zhou of Zhongjing Group?"
Chen Xixi placed her bag on the suitcase and then nodded emphatically, imitating, "Yep! Hooked up, indeed. President Zhou said he’s going to make me his first choice and increase my bonus to ten billion!"
"Ten billion?" Zheng He scoffed, "How could that be? Are you dreaming?"
"How could I not? Maybe President Zhou just loves my charm. What’s wrong with spending ten billion just to see me smile?"
"How could you say that with a straight face? President Zhou has seen more outstanding women than you’ve ever met. Someone like you trying to hook up with President Zhou wouldn’t even make it on the waitlist!"
"Knowing it’s impossible, yet you still ask. Is your brain cell activity also zero?" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
Zheng He’s face changed dramatically, "... Damn! She roped me in!"
What does she mean by ’brain cell activity is zero’?
Zheng He felt as if Chen Xixi was stabbing his heart with a small knife.
Seeing this, Han Qianyi immediately stood up for Zheng He, "Xixi, how could you say that about Zheng He? Isn’t that just rubbing salt into his wounds?"
Chen Xixi sneered, speaking calmly, "Rubbing salt in his wounds? You’re thinking too much. How could I waste salt on that!"
"..." You little miser Chen! I could strangle you!
Han Qianyi: "Aren’t your words too hurtful?"
Chen Xixi: "Hurtful? Impossible. His skin is impenetrable to blades and bullets. I couldn’t hurt him even slightly, don’t accuse me falsely!"
"..."
[Chen Xixi’s sharp tongue is amazing. I want to borrow it for a couple of days to confront a jerk!]
[Hahaha, not willing to waste salt! That’s so Chen Xixi!!]
[Hahahaha, her comment about ’brain cell activity also being zero’ is seriously harmful, and the insult is massive! How is Zheng He supposed to live with that, hahaha!]
[Hahaha I can’t help but laugh, why did Zheng He go looking for a scolding!]
[Chen Xixi’s behavior might be unusual, but Zheng He’s doubts are reasonable.]
[To mock Zheng He you don’t need to swear, just keep emphasizing ’your activity is zero’ to have him by the throat, hahaha!]
[Han Qianyi is still kind-hearted, not as hurtful as Chen Xixi’s words. Regardless, one should care more for Zheng He’s emotional state now; Chen Xixi is too unreasonable!]
[So what? It’s not Chen Xixi’s fault that Zheng He is messed up; why should she permit him to act out just because he’s sick? Chen Xixi doesn’t owe him anything!]
Han Qianyi and Zheng He didn’t want to deal with Chen Xixi anymore, unable to talk back.
No matter, having the upper hand in a verbal fight is pointless. What really matters is who will ultimately come first.
The morning of the 26th day of live-streaming.
Zheng He quietly headed to the kindergarten gate.
Though not the flagship center, this kindergarten appeared quite prestigious and upscale.
Before coming, he had spent one yuan to buy two lollipops.
Zheng He approached Director Zhang, who was receiving him, and asked with a smile, "Which child do I need to play with?"
Director Zhang replied, "You’re not here to play with the children. Our kindergarten is running a kidnapping prevention drill to raise the children’s safety awareness. You and a few others will play the role of human traffickers."
... Play a human trafficker?
