After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!
Chapter 522 - 509: Qin Yun’s Weak Constitution
"So envious."
Wang Li’s voice was not low, and Jingjing next to her heard it clearly. She looked up in the direction Wang Li was looking and indeed saw Pei Yan listening intently to what Qin Yun was saying, with a serious expression.
No one knew what Qin Yun said, but he reached out to gently pat her head in comfort.
That gesture was the epitome of gentleness.
Jingjing’s assistant was so upset at the sight, exclaiming, "Those two are just too much!!"
Jingjing whispered a reprimand to her assistant, "Shut your mouth."
She then withdrew her gaze and looked down at her injured leg, her eyes flashing with malice.
She had told Su Yu she wanted to leave the show and stop filming.
But Su Yu said that she could quit, but she’d have to pay a penalty fee.
When she signed for this season, she checked—the penalty fee on the contract was ten million.
She didn’t have it, so now she could only sit here and watch Qin Yun and Pei Yan flaunt their romance and embarrass her.
She tried to comfort herself and her assistant, "If they like to show off, let them. Have you ever seen anyone showing off so high-profile have a good end? In this circle, the more high-profile you are, the faster you fall. It’s not worth worrying about."
Because no one else wanted to be around those two, no one heard what she said. Even the camera crew was only filming Zhao Lan, not turning the camera this way. She was like a clown, standing there unnoticed and unable to leave.
But Qin Yun was being adored by everyone.
The assistant opened another task card and read out the next task, "The second task is to help the shepherds shear sheep. As a reward, they will offer a lamb to entertain everyone."
Qin Yun raised an eyebrow and nudged Pei Yan with her elbow, "You go draw, you must draw the sheep shearing."
Li Ning immediately chimed in, "I also don’t want to find those meat worms. Let’s just shear sheep."
Bai Ziyu rolled his eyes at him, "It’s a draw, for luck, even though I also don’t want to find those meat worms, I’ve tried them, and they don’t taste weird. On the contrary, they’re quite sweet."
The three of them instantly looked at Bai Ziyu with horror.
Bai Ziyu laughed, "I’m a wilderness survival streamer, I’ve eaten all sorts of weird things. It’s not that strange."
"Sweet?"
Li Ning looked at Bai Ziyu in disbelief, thinking he must be kidding him.
Bai Ziyu nodded, recalling the taste, "Yes, indeed sweet. If you don’t believe me, just take a bite later and you’ll see."
"No way, I’d rather die. Even if I’m starving, I won’t eat a bite," Li Ning shook his head vigorously, firmly expressing his stance.
Qin Yun, who usually wasn’t picky, also shook her head firmly, "I won’t eat it either."
The two looked at Pei Yan, and Pei Yan smiled at Qin Yun, "If she doesn’t eat it, I won’t either."
Li Ning and Bai Ziyu, feeling like they were force-fed at this display, immediately looked away, indicating they couldn’t take it.
"Mr. Pei, can you give us a break?"
Pei Yan nodded amiably, "Sure, next time I want to show off, I’ll give you guys a heads-up."
Li Ning, Bai Ziyu: "..."
Li Ning looked at Qin Yun, "Sister Yun, how about you go draw?"
Qin Yun was about to step up, but the thought of those wriggling meat worms made her shake her head at once, "Mr. Pei, you go."
She looked at Pei Yan.
Pei Yan would surely draw the sheep shearing.
"Will it work?" Bai Ziyu asked.
Qin Yun confidently nodded, "In terms of luck, there’s no one with better luck than Mr. Pei in the world."
With a Pixiu as his symbol, how could anyone be luckier?
He’s the perfect choice.
As soon as Qin Yun finished speaking, Pei Yan responded, "Okay, I’ll go."
Pei Yan stepped forward with Xiao Hu to draw the task cards for the two groups.
Xiao Hu drew first, Pei Yan second.
Both got their task cards, and the assistant asked Pei Yan to open his first.
Everyone in groups A and B was watching him, and even the fans in the live stream held their breath watching the task card in Pei Yan’s hand.
Pei Yan slowly opened the task card and glanced at the content, his eyes drooping.
"Alright, Mr. Pei, please show everyone the content on your task card,"
The assistant almost laughed, seeing Pei Yan’s expression. Everyone thought Pei Yan had drawn the task to plant and find meat worms.
Even Xiao Hu breathed a sigh of relief; he didn’t want to search for those disgusting things.
But Li Ning sighed heavily, "Mr. Pei must have drawn the meat worms."
Bai Ziyu turned back to comfort Li Ning and Qin Yun, "It’s okay if you don’t want to deal with it, I can go catch them."
But Qin Yun caught the fleeting smile at the corner of Pei Yan’s eye and started to smile too, "No need for that, it’s a task for Group B, nothing to do with us."
Li Ning and Bai Ziyu were surprised, "No way, Mr. Pei..."
The two seemed to realize something and quickly looked up at the task card Pei Yan held, which read: Sheep Shearing.
"No way, Mr. Pei, how could you play it like this!"
Xiao Hu saw it too and hurriedly opened his task card, seeing the words meat worm, his face immediately fell.
Pei Yan lightly shook his head, "I never said I drew the meat worm task."
"You’ve gone rogue, Mr. Pei."
"No way, how can Mr. Pei have such good luck."
Xiaoxiao and Lin Yihan joined in the complaint with looks of despair.
But Li Ning and Bai Ziyu suddenly lit up with joy.
Not having to handle those disgusting things was simply wonderful.
The staff immediately said, "Alright, the task drawing is complete. Next, the guests are to proceed to the pasture to complete the task." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
The guests split into two groups and got into cars, with Qin Yun’s group heading straight to the breeding area of the pasture.
The pasture was vast, with herds of cattle and sheep stretching as far as the eye could see.
Qin Yun and her group followed the staff into the work area.
"The flock needing shearing has been penned up. Once the prep work is done, they’ll be released one by one, and after shearing, they’ll be driven to the other side."
The staff explained to the four while taking out the tools, a very simple clipper, just shave it directly on the sheep.
"Like this?" Qin Yun tried the clipper and asked the staff if it was time to start.
Pei Yan squinted at her as she jokingly aimed the clipper at her head, and swiftly seized it from her hand, "You watch from the side."
He then brought over a chair, pressed down on Qin Yun’s shoulder, and made her sit down, not letting her move.
Qin Yun instinctively asked, "Why?"
"You’re physically weak," Pei Yan casually gave a reason.
Qin Yun: "????"
Weak?!
Perhaps they should have a contest on who was really the weak one?
Then Qin Yun seemed to remember something, her eyes falling to her belly.
Oh... she’s pregnant now.
"Alright,"
Qin Yun nodded obediently, conceding.
Pei Yan took the clipper and donned the apron provided by the staff.
A man over six feet wearing this looked somewhat amusing, but still handsome. Once ready, he headed straight to the work area.
Pei Yan said to Li Ning and Bai Ziyu, "I’ll handle Qin Yun’s portion too."
Li Ning immediately shook his head, "No need! The two of us are not just for show, we’ll do it together."
Upon saying that, they both quickly donned aprons and joined the action.
The three men, along with a staff member, were bustling about actively.
"Yes, press it with one hand, it’s used to it, very docile, you can just work with it directly."
The staff guided while demonstrating for the three.
Pei Yan tentatively pushed, and the sheep lay still on the ground, rolling its eyes up at him. He tried a second push.
