I'm Crushing on Gorgeous Faces in Variety Shows!-Chapter 323: Brother Huai, You’re Truly a Good Person
Mu Qiu sighed in disbelief: "Forget it if you don’t believe it, but completely forgetting it now? You’re breaking Brother Huai’s heart. Brother Huai, please don’t give him any."
Li Yang finally realized their crazy routine, showing an expression of speechlessness.
"You guys have absolutely no limits when it comes to food."
Mu Qiu and Guan Yu pretended not to hear him and looked sincerely at Shi Yuhuai.
Shi Yuhuai took out a small transparent bag from his back and, in their astonished gazes, handed them three jellies and two compressed biscuits.
"Hands."
Mu Qiu and Guan Yu extended their hands to receive them.
Mu Qiu had two jellies and one compressed biscuit in her palm, while Guan Yu had one less jelly.
Shi Yuhuai noticed and took out another pink jelly from his bag, placing it in Guan Yu’s palm.
There, now it’s fair.
Mu Qiu and Guan Yu stared at the items in their palms, speechless for a moment.
Li Yang stepped forward, curious, and asked, "Brother Huai, where did these come from?"
Shi Yuhuai: "They were just given by fans. You have some too."
Li Yang was pleasantly surprised: "I have some too???"
"Hands."
Li Yang followed the process and extended his hand, receiving a small piece of compressed biscuit.
"...Just one?"
"She said only the compressed biscuits were for you guys."
"Then why do they get two jellies?"
Shi Yuhuai frowned a bit and said to Li Yang, "Do you like this jelly?"
Li Yang opened his mouth to say no, but Shi Yuhuai sighed and placed a jelly in his palm.
"Alright, I’ll give you one."
"...Thank you, Brother Huai, you’re a good person."
Shi Yuhuai then handed the remaining compressed biscuits to the others.
He truly did it piece by piece, not worried about running out embarrassingly when reaching the last person.
The fans outside watched him give out the last piece, everyone got some, and they sighed in relief.
Lian Yi was having a hard time, trying to ensure everyone "shared the love," considering food for all, both those who liked and disliked it, fearing Shi Yuhuai might be isolated or criticized due to low emotional intelligence.
After finishing distributing the compressed biscuits, he zipped up the small transparent bag and handed it to the assistant off-camera.
Everyone holding their compressed biscuits exchanged glances and looked blankly at each other.
Shu Ran: "How are we supposed to eat these?"
Mu Qiu: "Tear it open, take a bite, drink water. It’ll expand in your stomach, keeping you from being hungry all day."
"...That’s terrifying! Who eats these for fun?!"
Cheng Zhirang gently explained: "It’s not expanding; it’s just the feeling of fullness from water. These biscuits don’t swell easily, so most nutrition gets absorbed by the body. They’re used as emergency rations.
Usually, soldiers in harsh conditions eat them, or they’re taken on long trips for easy satiety. But they’re not to be eaten often or in large amounts."
Shu Ran asked, "So why did Brother Huai’s fans give us these?"
"Maybe they’re afraid we’d get hungry?" said Tang Zi, who had finally stepped into the camera shot.
Shu Ran glanced at her briefly but said nothing.
Guan Yu took on the role as the atmosphere setter and continued the conversation, approaching the camera to ask:
"Thanks to Lian Yi. But I still want to know, why do you carry compressed biscuits? And such a cute bag for Brother Huai?"
The kindergarten backpack on a hundred and ninety-centimeter person is truly out of place.
Mu Qiu opened the biscuit and took a bite: "Maybe she thinks regular snacks won’t last us till evening? Or she’s planning for the worst."
Cheng Zhirang handed her a bottle of water.
Ye Mian also took a bite: "It’s pretty tasty."
Fu Ran had been watching her, and when she loosened the biscuit, he bent down and bit right next to her teeth marks.
"Yeah, not bad, peanut flavor."
Ye Mian glared at him.
The others made expressions of pretending not to see. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
Shu Ran didn’t open it, blocking the sun and looking around, saying: "So, I think I can rest now."
Tang Zi curiously asked, "Why?"
Mu Qiu looked around at them: "For someone like Sister Shu Ran, a large squid skewer, one abalone, and a small biscuit are enough."
Chewing each piece of meat forty-nine times might fill you with one squid skewer.
Tang Zi exclaimed, stepping forward to ask Shu Ran: "You’re still eating so little?"
Shu Ran gave a professional smile: "Yeah, to keep my figure. Didn’t you also slim down quite a bit for this role?"
"But I did it with exercise," Tang Zi said, laughing and shaking her head, "My assistant always tempts me with food; I can’t resist."
"Maybe you should change assistants."
Both of their smiles looked genuine, accompanied by head shakes, playful scolding, and surprise, just like real emotions.
After some chatting, Tang Zi frowned and said: "It seems like everyone else has snacks; I’m the only one who hasn’t gotten anything. I need to step up."
"You didn’t get anything?" Shu Ran was genuinely surprised, holding back her inner joy but pretending concern.
"Then you better hurry. Or you could try the game we played earlier? It’s a bit thrilling, but you’re brave; just don’t let go and you’ll almost always succeed."
"But it looked so scary when you all played; I need to think it over."
"Alright, anyhow, good luck."
"Yeah, you too!"
Such dry conversation that Mu Qiu felt social death creeping up in the middle.
Now, right now, give her a task to escape this.
She turned to make eye contact with Guan Yu.
"Sister Guan Yu..."
"I understand. You want two more dishes, right?"
"...Exactly. Considering how tired we are, not eating more would be a disservice to ourselves."
"Perfect, I admire your drive, let’s head out and keep picking tasks."
"You’re absolutely right; I want to grab one with veggies, Ye Mian, care to join?"
Ye Mian left Fu Ran and ran over.
"Hey, which veggie?"
"King oyster mushrooms ideally, they taste similar to meat."
"Aside from veggies, the salt’s more important; seasoning really matters..."
The three of them, seemingly discussing the latest crop yield, chat as they walk off.
Usually, they talk at length to escape the scene.
Li Yang mentally grumbled about their lack of loyalty, not pulling him along.
He rubbed his nose, glanced around, hesitated, but decided to step out, muttering and heading out, "I should search for some meat dishes too."
"I’m going to play the previous game," Shi Yuhuai also stepped out, directly heading to the task selection zone and chose the "Rushing to Battle."
In any case, they didn’t want to stay in this odd, uncomfortable atmosphere.
