I’ve Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show

Zheng He shouted, waking up the other four guests. Out of curiosity, everyone came out to see what was going on outside.
Wan Chen rubbed his temples and looked at Zheng He: “What’s going on? Why can’t you keep it down early in the morning?”
Ever since Wan Chen arrived on this show, he hadn’t been sleeping well. With constant issues every day, he felt his normally stable emotions becoming increasingly unstable…
Zheng He pointed at Chen Xixi, who was sitting comfortably on a mattress stretching herself, and accused: “She stole the mattress from my room! She said I paid US$ 50 to rent the room, but the production team didn’t say the mattress was mine.”
Wan Chen and the others were shocked to see the mattress Chen Xixi was sitting on: “!!!”
It really was like waking up from a dream with a sudden realization.
Just as Yu Gong moved mountains in the past, today Chen Xixi moved mattresses – truly impressive!
Who could say this wasn’t another way to save money?
Wan Chen didn’t have time to reason with Zheng He, because their room rental was almost due for renewal.
Zheng He only saw Wan Chen hurriedly return to his room to move out the mattress.
The production team requested a US$ 50 daily rental fee, but they didn’t specify that items in the room couldn’t be moved, nor did they say who they belonged to. As long as they took the mattresses out to the living room, they could still perfectly solve the sleeping problem without spending a penny!
This was a good way to save a considerable amount of money.
Jin Cheng also hurriedly moved out the mattress from his room.
Han Qianyi… with a complex expression watched the living room nearly filled with mattresses, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, somewhat conflicted.
Do I really have to sleep like this?
She’s a girl, how can she just sleep in the living room with a mattress?
And especially with men of the opposite sex…
But if she didn’t do this, it would indeed cost quite a bit in room rent, and with the money saved, she could probably buy some facial masks and other skincare products.
After rejecting Zheng He last night, her popularity had increased, which proved that more people were paying attention to her, and with Chen Xixi making it to the trending searches last night because of her beauty, it brought new pressure to her.
Chen Xixi had skincare products obtained for free, but she didn’t. She only had soap and milky lotions and cushions that cost her more than US$ 100, and she bought the cheapest ones, nowhere near the high-end brands that Chen Xixi got for free.
Using big brand skincare products, Chen Xixi’s skin was naturally getting better, but as for her, using cheap products, with only lotions and no serum or masks, how could she maintain the best skin condition to surpass Chen Xixi’s popularity?
In the end, Han Qianyi steeled her heart and also went to her room to move the mattress.
With great effort, she finally dragged the mattress down, but found that dragging it out of the room seemed like a difficult task.
The mattress was just too big and heavy, and she didn’t even know where to begin or how to exert strength at the key points.
She was so exhausted and still couldn’t drag the mattress out.
Finally, with no other choice, Han Qianyi had to seek help from Wan Chen and Jin Cheng. She tucked her scattered hair behind her ears and deliberately made her voice soft and tender: “I really can’t move it, can you help me?”
Jin Cheng looked at Han Qianyi but didn’t move. Han Qianyi was different from Chen Xixi; they weren’t cut from the same cloth. Since he sided with Chen Xixi, as her good brother, he naturally wouldn’t help Han Qianyi.
Wan Chen originally intended not to interfere, but seeing that Jin Cheng had no intention of helping, he couldn’t bear to leave her hanging and ended up helping Han Qianyi drag the mattress out.
Han Qianyi quickly smiled warmly, thanking Wan Chen: “Thank you, Wan Chen.”
Wan Chen responded with a light “hmm”, his expression indifferent. It was clear that after spending so much time together, he really wanted to set boundaries with the other guests.
Zheng He, standing to the side, looked at the mattresses scattered all over the ground and was immediately stupefied. He had wanted Wan Chen and the others to come and judge fairly, but they ended up following Chen Xixi’s lead in this defiant act!
What’s this? A mattress meeting?
Zheng He pointed at them, too shocked to know what to say, “You guys…”
Jin Cheng lay down on his own mattress, speaking leisurely: “We all think what Chen Xixi said makes perfect sense!”
Chen Xixi basically provided them with a great way to save money, so naturally, they were all on Chen Xixi’s side this time.
Zheng He: “!!!”
There’s simply no justice!
Zheng He looked up at the camera fixed to the wall, his face pleading for help: “Director, aren’t you going to do something about this!”
Standing behind the camera, the chief director, who lost four mattresses: “…” He also wanted to intervene, but the rules only stated you had to pay fifty yuan for rent, there was indeed no rule saying you couldn’t move things in the room.
It seems that next time they make rules, they’ll have to be more meticulous, specifically to block Chen Xixi’s loopholes!
[How can Jin Cheng behave like this? A girl is asking for help, how can he just stand by and watch?]
[Mr. Jin likes Chen Xixi, Han Qianyi’s relationship with Chen Xixi is ambiguous, they are not on the same side, so Mr. Jin can’t help Han Qianyi! Such a simple relationship, and you can’t see it, you’ve really been watching the show for nothing!]
[The mattress is so heavy, Han Qianyi couldn’t even move it, so how did Chen Xixi manage to move the mattress out by herself last night? Isn’t she a girl too?]
[Now the unscrupulous production team can’t make the Guests pay anymore, Chen Xixi really is clever!]
Knowing he was outnumbered, Zheng He decided at least he could get his own mattress back, but before he could voice his complaint, Qian Yue reminded everyone that it was time to pay the room fee again for those who wished to extend their stay.
Now the mattresses were definitively not his.
However, it was still good; he had a sofa to sleep on.
But to lose a mattress over a sofa, he felt it was somewhat of a Pyrrhic victory.
Chen Xixi, woken up by Zheng He, didn’t plan to continue sleeping either. She sat on the mattress, tidying up her hair, and looked towards the other Guests, asking: “Do you guys want to go for hotpot?”
Hotpot?!
Everyone exchanged glances, suddenly energized.
Yet Zheng He let out a cold scoff, his tone brimming with sarcasm: “As if you can treat us!”
Chen Xixi smiled mysteriously: “Indeed, I can’t treat you, but I can let you enjoy a hotpot meal for the least amount of money.”
Han Qianyi asked curiously, “How little?”
Chen Xixi thought for a moment, carefully weighing the market prices, then gestured with her index and middle finger, saying: “Twenty yuan per person, roughly the cost of a bowl of spicy hotpot noodles, will get you a full hotpot meal. Are you in?”
“Twenty yuan?” Wan Chen raised an eyebrow, “For the five of us, that’s one hundred yuan. Can we have hotpot for one hundred yuan?”
It sounded cheap, but so cheap that it was hard for them to believe.
For twenty yuan, if you order takeout, it’s just the basic portion for one person, mostly vegetarian sets at that.
Just a little bit more luxurious ingredients would cost at least over twenty yuan.
Zheng He sneered: “Listen to her trick you, twenty yuan isn’t even enough to buy a plate of tripe, one hundred yuan for five people, it’d be odd if that’s enough to be full!”
