Jì Chén's gaze fell on Zhào Fùníng, who had also sneakily peeled a lot of shrimp, and he immediately realized what was happening. He quickly put two large shrimp into Lín Chūnshuǐ's bowl. "Eat your shrimp!" "Little Lin, you're bad! You peeled half a plate of shrimp while we were all diligently listening to the story!"
Everyone chatted and ate dinner in a relaxed atmosphere. The livestream ended with the audience's reluctance to see it go. Zhào Fùníng's cooking skills were indeed remarkable; even the several actresses ate quite a bit that evening.
After dinner, Lín Zé and Sū Zǐtán voluntarily washed the dishes. "Shall we go for a walk?" Lín Zé asked. "I wouldn't dare!" Zǐtán quickly shook her head. "The mosquitoes around here are deadly. When Aunt Bai and I were picking vegetables by the door earlier, they bit my waist and legs, leaving several bumps." "Ah? The mosquitoes are that fierce? Then hurry back inside, let me see where you were bitten!" "Oh, you pervert!"
However, there was a more pressing matter now. Since they were going to be buskers, they definitely had to sing. To avoid being recognized, they needed to come up with something completely different. Lín Zé already had an idea and planned to rehearse with Sū Zǐtán. The first song...
...
The entire night passed quickly, and Lín Zé woke up early the next morning. Lín Zé first packed his things and then woke Sū Zǐtán. "So sleepy..." Sū Zǐtán yawned, looking at Lín Zé with sleepy eyes. "Here!" Lín Zé put his arms around Sū Zǐtán and lifted her from the bed, carrying her to the bathroom to wash up. "We need to get up a bit earlier today to find the band; then we can sleep in for the next few days." "Band?" Sū Zǐtán asked indistinctly while brushing her teeth, "Where are we going to find a band? And we can't use our own money; we can't afford it right now." "Don't worry, when we arrived yesterday, I saw a lot of grandmas and grandpas playing music and singing in the small park by the Tóng Jiāng River. Let's see if we can get friendly with them." "Didn't you fall asleep in the car? How do you know about the park by the river?" Sū Zǐtán chuckled. "I woke up briefly when we passed a bridge." Lín Zé was already planning his disguise for the day. "Those grandmas and grandpas are quite skilled for amateurs." After they finished washing up and went downstairs, the cars belonging to Zhào Fùníng and his wife, and Chén Wèiguó and his wife, had already departed. Only their car and Jì Chén's car remained. "Brother Lin! Sister-in-law!" Xiǎo Qián greeted them as soon as he saw Lín Zé and Sū Zǐtán come down. "Xiǎo Qián, thank you for your hard work. Let's start the livestream," Lín Zé said cheerfully. Xiǎo Qián nodded immediately, hung a backpack on his chest, and pointed the camera hidden inside at the couple.
【It's starting, it's starting. It's finally starting.】 【The livestream in the next room started half an hour ago. Brother Lin is so slow.】 【Oh, it's boring not hearing Brother Lin chat with us. Why doesn't the director give us a phone so we can see the bullet comments...】
"Where are Brother Jì and Sister Lin?" Lín Zé asked. Director Zhang stood nearby, looking a bit helpless. "They're not in a hurry. They were chatting until late last night and haven't woken up yet." Chatting until late? Arguing until late, more like. Lín Zé shook his head; he had heard the two of them quarreling again last night. "Each group has a secret mission," Director Zhang said with a smile. "Today's secret mission for the Lin-Su duo is: "Disguise yourselves as beggars in a place with over fifty people and sing a song that captivates the audience, earning over fifty yuan in tips, or make someone cry with your song." "Completing the mission earns twenty points; failing will deduct ten points."
【What kind of mission is this? Isn't this targeting Brother Lin?】 【And make someone cry?】 【What song can make someone cry on command? But twenty points is much higher than the other two teams.】
The couple got into the car with Xiǎo Qián. The car drove smoothly, and Lín Zé began applying makeup. This time, Lín Zé didn't use spirit gum or anything similar; he only adjusted his
