Sure enough, the moment Mu Ting finished speaking, the production team handed over a new task card.
They did not even let everyone finish their meal.
Lu Chiyan: "...???"
Lu Chiyan stared silently at the task card being held out to him, not reaching for it for a long while.
The task card was being offered to Lu Chiyan, and he was also the day's household manager, so no one else took it either.
Only Pei Zeyan, sitting across from Lu Chiyan, reminded him, "That task card is for you."
"Task card? Where?" Lu Chiyan played dumb. "Why don't I see it?"
Seeing Lu Chiyan's innocent expression, Pei Zeyan immediately caught his meaning. "Oh, right, right, right. I don't see it either. I have no idea where the task card is!"
Lu Chiyan smiled slightly, then asked the others, "What about you? Did you see a task card?"
The others shook their heads in unison and answered with perfect coordination, "Nope."
Lu Chiyan's smile grew even more satisfied.
Exactly!
What task card?
"Let's eat, let's eat. This food smells amazing!" With that, Lu Chiyan picked up another large shrimp for himself.
The ignored task card: ???? Was my presence really that negligible?
Bullet comments-
[Well, damn, hahahahahaha! They're rebelling! The production team must be furious!]
[This is the first time I've seen guests ignore the production team like this!]
[Messing with Lu Chiyan is like kicking a steel plate! He's not about to indulge the production team, hahahahahaha!]
[I'd advise the production team to go along with Lu Chiyan, or he'll expose something else and get your show suspended a second time, hahahaha!]
[A guest who actually refuses to take the production team's task card? Now I'm looking forward to this show even more.]
[Lu Chiyan: On any show I'm in, I make the rules!]
[I really want to see the directors' faces right now. Their expressions must be priceless!]
Not a single person reached for the task card. After it had been left hanging there for quite a while, the directors had no choice but to take it back.
Unlike other shows, where they could pause filming, this one was being livestreamed.
The directors thought, Fine, we'll let you eat first. We can just give you the task card after the meal.
Seeing the task card withdrawn, Lu Chiyan breathed a sigh of relief and picked up another large shrimp, placing it in his bowl.
[Sigh! Shrimp tastes great, but peeling it is such a pain! If only someone would peel it for me! Whoever peels shrimp for me, I'll love them forever!]
Hearing this, Qin Sili paused in the middle of eating and turned to glance at Lu Chiyan, his expression growing a little odd.
Lu Chiyan pursed his lips and was just about to pick up a shrimp to peel it when a large hand beat him to it, reaching in front of him and taking the shrimp from his bowl.
Lu Chiyan: "???"
Lu Chiyan turned in puzzlement toward Qin Sili, who had taken his large shrimp, and was utterly dismayed.
[Seriously, what's wrong with Qin Sili? There are plenty of shrimp on the plate. Why does he have to steal the one in my bowl? Does the shrimp in my bowl taste better?]
Hearing Lu Chiyan's thoughts, Qin Sili paused in peeling the shrimp. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly before he continued.
Just as Lu Chiyan was about to say something, he saw Qin Sili place the peeled shrimp back into his bowl.
Lu Chiyan: "!!!"
"You... peeled those for me?" Lu Chiyan looked at the two peeled shrimp in his bowl with delighted surprise and broke into a broad grin.
[Oh my god, can things really be this good? I was just wondering if someone would peel shrimp for me, and Qin Sili did it? That's my brother for you! Love him to death!]
