After Lu Qingxi savored her breakfast in her room, there was still half a cup of yogurt and a poached egg left on the table. She sorted herself out and prepared for the next arrangements.
The program team did not ask all the guests to go downstairs to gather, but arranged them to go down in groups. When Yang Wuxi and Zhou Siming met downstairs, the atmosphere was a little subtle. Yang Wuxi had an unfamiliar but polite smile on her face, while Zhou Siming acted more realistically, with no extra expression on his cold face, as if he did not have much expectation for the journey that was about to begin.
Then, the second group of guests, Shen Ji and Zhao Yizhen, came downstairs. Shen Ji had his usual polite smile on his face, giving people a friendly and warm feeling. Although Zhao Yizhen's smile was not big, her eyes were shining, revealing her curiosity and expectation for this journey.
The situation of the third group of guests, Duan Wu and Zhang Minglian, was somewhat similar to that of the first group. Duan Wu had reservations about Zhang Minglian's character, while Zhang Minglian was somewhat disdainful of Duan Wu's internet celebrity status. Although the two nodded to each other to show politeness, their eyes revealed disdain and alienation towards each other. They walked out side by side in silence without much communication between them.
The appearance of the fourth group of guests undoubtedly added a bit of drama to the whole occasion. Lu Qingxi and Yue Muchen walked down the stairs on both sides one after the other, but their moods were completely different.
Yue Muchen walked down the stairs slowly with a feeling of loss. However, when he raised his head and his eyes met Lu Qingxi who was two steps ahead of him, his mood changed subtly. Lu Qingxi's profile looked particularly gentle under the light, and Yue Muchen stared at her without blinking, as if he was attracted by her beauty and temperament, and his whole mind was taken by her.
As Yue Muchen got closer, his heartbeat became louder and louder, as if the entire stairwell was echoing his heartbeat. He tried hard to suppress his emotions, but the light in his eyes could not be concealed.
When Lu Qingxi turned her head without noticing, she saw Yue Muchen staring at her blankly. Their eyes met in the air, as if there was an invisible force attracting them. This was the first time the two met in the true sense, and they both left a deep impression on each other.
Lu Qingxi looked at Yue Muchen, feeling somewhat curious. She didn't expect that this e-sports player, who was described as a hot-tempered little wolfdog in the plot, was actually a little cute in reality. She smiled and nodded to him, as a greeting. Yue Muchen responded with a somewhat awkward smile, as if he was still trying to adapt to this sudden feeling.
Zhou Sibei was obviously in a very happy mood. She walked down the stairs happily, and every step revealed her inner joy. When she reached the stairs, she happened to meet Han Yisu who was also walking down the stairs. Their eyes met in the stairwell, and Zhou Sibei's eyes were immediately filled with a warm smile.
"Teacher Han!" Zhou Sibei greeted excitedly, her voice full of respect and joy. She didn't expect to meet Han Yisu, whom she had always admired, here, and her excitement was beyond words.
Han Yisu seemed a little unnatural in the face of Zhou Sibei's enthusiasm. He took a step back, a polite but distant smile on his face, and responded, "Hello, Miss Zhou." His voice was steady and gentle, but his tone revealed a sense of keeping a distance.
Although Han Yisu's attitude was a little cold, Zhou Sibei did not feel disappointed. She still maintained a warm smile and continued to talk with Han Yisu.
Then, the guests were taken to a mysterious and unique private airport by carefully arranged vehicles. This was actually the exclusive flight base generously provided by the Zhou family. Yang Wuxi and Zhou Siming were the first couple to arrive, arriving early at this place full of expectations. The other guests, according to the pre-arranged groups, boarded their own exclusive planes with their respective stylists, photographers, and those attentive assistants and professional instructors.
When each group of guests entered the cabin, the staff of the program team revealed today's challenge to them. The guests need to perform a double performance on the street designated by the program team. This performance not only tests their talents, but also tests their tacit understanding and cooperation. In the limited time of just half an hour, they need to do their best to attract as many passers-by as possible to stop and watch. The final number of viewers will determine their ranking.
In order to motivate the guests to go all out, the program team has carefully designed different levels of rewards. The first-ranked guest will enjoy a top-notch romantic dinner for two and a dreamy hot air balloon trip; the second-ranked guest can experience the style of a high-end horse farm and enjoy a high-end meal for two; the third-ranked guest can taste a quality meal for two and visit the aquarium; the fourth-ranked guest will taste a Korean local specialty meal for two and watch a movie; and the fifth-ranked guest will go to the welfare home together to bring warmth to the children with their love and care, and enjoy a simple charity meal.
In order to help the guests better prepare for this challenge, the directors also gave their own suggestions. They suggested that the guests start discussing the content of the street performance on the plane so that they can quickly get into the state after arriving at the destination. At the same time, the program team also arranged a professional makeup team and photographer to ensure that every guest can appear in front of the camera in the best condition.
In the spacious cabin of the plane, each group was immersed in a heated discussion. However, Zhou Siming seemed extremely resistant to the upcoming performance. Although he understood that this was arranged by the program team, he could only accept it silently. He raised his eyelids and looked at Yang Wuxi beside him, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "You can do it yourself, I don't know anything."
When Yang Wuxi heard this, she was instantly filled with helplessness. She felt as if she had found a partner, or even more like an ancestor. However, as a member of the team, she had to quickly adjust her mindset and start thinking about how to maximize the audience's attention.
She thought for a moment and finally found a possible solution. She raised her head and said to Zhou Siming, "You can play the piano, right? I've seen your information and you are at the tenth level of piano." Zhou Siming couldn't help but frown when he heard this, and he was obviously not happy about this fact. He asked back, "You want me to play the piano? Then what are you doing? Are you also an audience?"
Yang Wuxi rolled her eyes in her heart, but she knew she couldn't lose her temper at this moment. She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm: "I know a little ballet, I dance." Hearing this, Zhou Siming didn't say anything, but he didn't object either. Yang Wuxi breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that the other party would refute again.
In this way, the two finally reached a preliminary consensus. Although Zhou Siming's attitude was still cold, Yang Wuxi tried not to care. She knew very well that the most important thing now was how to avoid embarrassing herself in front of the camera during this performance.
