Yu Anyi was shocked. “What did you say?”
“Guan Xiayun likes Ji Qingzhou.” This time, Chu Cheng used an affirmative sentence.
“How do you know that?”
“Someone is coveting my boyfriend; how can I not feel it?”
Yu Anyi thought about it and recalled the incident of Guan Xiayun asking her at noon if she liked Ji Qingzhou. No wonder she had suddenly asked her that question. And she was so eager that as soon as they got back to the house, she turned off the camera and started questioning her.
“She also handed Ji Qingzhou a pack of wet wipes today.” Chu Cheng said, “Did she give it to Lian Jingxing or any other guys here?”
Yu Anyi shook her head.
“So, why only give it to Ji Qingzhou?”
“Maybe it was to repay Ji Qingzhou for helping us carry water in the morning.”
“Well, shouldn’t she have given it to me then? During the impromptu grouping, you chose Ji Qingzhou, while she and I were a team.”
“That’s true.”
“You can go back and ask her. If she doesn’t like him, then it’s just me being overly sensitive and seeing things that aren’t there. But if she really does like him, then she’s your friend, and you should advise her to withdraw from this situation as soon as possible.”
Yu Anyi nodded and then looked up at Chu Cheng with dissatisfaction. “What kind of fate is this for the two of us? We’re so miserable. One likes you and the other likes Ji Qingzhou; it’s so pitiful.”
Chu Cheng laughed when he heard her words. “So hurry up, and like someone else. I think Lian Jingxing is very attentive to you.”
Yu Anyi raised her hand and made a gesture for him to pause. “Are you crazy? Are you feeling overly lucky these years? Stop it now! Why are you also joining in this nonsense?”
After she finished speaking, she turned on the mic and went out, indicating to the cameraman to resume filming. “Let’s go. Let’s go see your family’s stove.”
While Chu Cheng showed her the stove, Ji Qingzhou also came out with some chopped vegetables. Seeing this, Chu Cheng started to light a fire.

When the time was about right, Ji Qingzhou lifted the lid of the pot, and indeed, the rice was perfectly steamed. He took out the rice and asked Chu Cheng to bring it inside while he started stir-frying the vegetables. After all four dishes were cooked, he proceeded to fry the buns.
He originally wanted to make another rock sugar pear, but Chu Cheng stopped him. “Enough, it’s getting dark, so let’s leave it at this.”
Ji Qingzhou guessed that Chu Cheng felt concerned for him, so he didn’t insist any more and entered the room with Chu Cheng carrying the fried buns.
Although these dishes were just home-cooked meals, in such an environment, they carried a certain warmth. Yu Anyi ate while sighing, “Ji Qingzhou, your cooking is quite delicious. I’ve never tasted it before, so this is an eye-opener for me.”
“The next time you come to my house, I will make it for you.”
Chu Cheng was dissatisfied. “If she wants to eat something, why can’t she go and buy it herself? Does she need you to cook for her specifically? Are you her personal chef?”
Yu Anyi was speechless and resentfully picked up a piece of meat in front of him with her chopsticks as revenge.
Guan Xiayun ate quietly, talking to Ji Qingzhou and Yu Anyi from time to time. It was only then that Yu Anyi realised that Guan Xiayun really didn’t talk to Chu Cheng very much, and when she talked to Ji Qingzhou, she would subconsciously soften her tone and look at him very intently.
Yu Anyi thought, “This is not a good sign.”
So, after finishing their meal, Yu Anyi and Guan Xiayun washed the dishes together, and then Yu Anyi hurriedly dragged her away as if they were fleeing.
Guan Xiayun had initially wanted to stay a bit longer and attend the bonfire together once it began. However, she was taken by surprise when Yu Anyi suddenly suggested going back home. Reluctantly, she had no choice but to follow Yu Anyi all the way back home.
“Let’s change clothes.” After Yu Anyi finished speaking, the cameraman intentionally didn’t follow them into the room. Yu Anyi closed the door, then said the same sentence to the camera in the room and turned it off.
Guan Xiayun asked Yu Anyi, “Which outfit are you planning to change into? There shouldn’t be any tasks for tonight, and the temperature difference here is significantly different between day and night. It’s already getting a bit chilly. How about wearing a long skirt?”
How could Yu Anyi have the time to think about what to wear when she only had one thing on her mind right now, and that was, “Xiayun, let me ask you, do you like Ji Qingzhou?”
Guan Xiayun was stunned for a second. She thought she had hidden her feelings quite well, but apparently not.
“You figured it out?” she asked softly.
Hearing this, Yu Anyi thought that the two of them were really sisters, “You really like him?”
“I have a good impression.” Guan Xiayun said, “I noticed him when you guys recorded 《48 Hours of the Decisive Battle》. I think he is very smart and gentle, so…”
“But,” Yu Anyi looked at her and said cruelly, “He has someone he likes.”
Guan Xiayun couldn’t help but be a little dazed when she heard this.
Pulling her to the bed, Yu Anyi sat down and said seriously to her, “I didn’t know you liked him before. If I had known, I would have persuaded you a long time ago. Ji Qingzhou has someone he likes, and their relationship is quite stable. I know the other party. They are a good person, so don’t put your feelings on him. If you want to treat him as a friend, that’s okay. But if you want him to like you back, it’s impossible. So Xiayun, don’t like him.”
Guan Xiayun had felt that she and Ji Qingzhou were getting closer when they were eating just now, but now that she heard such news, she felt a little uncomfortable for a while.
Seeing her eyelashes drooping and looking at the involuntary sadness on her face, Yu Anyi kindly advised, “There are plenty of fish in the sea. If you like someone who is smart and gentle, I can introduce someone to you another day.”
“No need.” Guan Xiayun said softly, “I just felt like this news was a bit sudden. I didn’t know that he had someone he liked. And he hasn’t had any scandals in this area before, so I always thought he was single. So I was somewhat surprised.”
“I’m fine.” Guan Xiayun smiled. “I just had a crush on him. When I first met him, I was worried that he wouldn’t live up to my expectations and disappoint me. But as I got to know him, I found him to be even better than what I saw on screen, which sparked some longing. However, fortunately, it’s just a desire to like him. I haven’t truly fallen for him, so stopping now doesn’t make me feel too upset.”
“En.” Yu Anyi hugged her. “Anyway, don’t feel too bad. Falling in love is the most troublesome thing. Look at me; I don’t have a boyfriend yet.”
“That’s because you don’t want to; there are so many people chasing you.”
“But the person I want is not willing.” Yu Anyi sighed, “And it is very difficult for two people to be harmonious. Let’s take our time.”
Guan Xiayun nodded when she heard her words. She thought that she would become more familiar with Ji Qingzhou after this show, so that there would be more possibilities in the future, but unexpectedly, Ji Qingzhou already had a girlfriend. Falling in love was such a hassle.
The two sighed in unison while resting their chins on their hands together, but were amused by their identical gestures, and laughed while looking at each other.
“Alright, let’s change our clothes.” Guan Xiayun said, “The bonfire party should start soon.”
Yu Anyi nodded.
The bonfire party was actually more like a night chat around the fire. All the guests sat in front of the bonfire, chatting and eating the snacks prepared by the program team.
When Li Yiming and Zhang Jiarui saw that the program team was preparing midnight snacks, they rushed forward and grabbed the table, shouting, “Director, I love you so much.”
Like them, there were Ren Zhen and Qin Weiming, who only ate apples at night, so when they saw the snacks on the table, they immediately became energetic.
The director laughed and asked them to sit down. The host also sat down and organised them to play games and chat.
After Qin Shuang scolded him, Qin Weiming then received advice from him over the phone. “Since you have this opportunity, try to get closer to Chu Cheng and build a good relationship, you understand?” Qin Weiming had no room for misunderstanding. His uncle had made it clear, and he had no choice but to follow suit.
Therefore, when Ren Zhen placed a bowl of porridge in front of Qin Weiming, he immediately pushed it towards Chu Cheng and said, “I apologise for what happened earlier.”
Chu Cheng: ….
Chu Cheng felt that his style of painting had changed a little too quickly, “No need.”
He pushed the porridge back.
Looking at the porridge in front of him, Qin Weiming didn’t force it. He could think about other ways later. After all, such an incident had occurred in the afternoon. So he didn’t expect Chu Cheng to shake hands with him now.
He smiled at Chu Cheng. “Then if you need help tomorrow, feel free to let me know.”
Chu Cheng: ….
What do I need you for? Need you to hold me back? Chu Cheng felt that what he needed most now was for Qin Weiming to get back to normal!
Ren Zhen looked at her husband, said nothing, and silently lowered her head.
To liven up the atmosphere, the host selected a game for everyone to play, and soon they were all caught up in the excitement, laughing and enjoying themselves. At that moment, the director reminded the host that they could start live streaming. But this time, only Lian Jingxing and Meng Yuanbai would be featured on camera.
Upon hearing the director’s reminder, Lian Jingxing took his phone back from one of the staff members and started the live stream. With his high popularity, as soon as the live stream began, a continuous stream of fans joined in, observing his attire and surroundings. They quickly flooded the chat with questions like, “Brother, where are you?”
“Are you filming a new drama, Brother?”
“Is Meng Yuanbai next to you?” and so on.
Lian Jingxing answered a few questions and then turned off the live broadcast. Everyone was at a loss and tried to guess where he was and what he was doing on Weibo and the forums.
The director, on the other hand, had already assigned tasks to Yu Anyi and Ji Qingzhou. “Anyi, tomorrow at noon, you will do a live stream, but only you and Xiayun will be on camera. As for Qingzhou, you will do a live stream the morning after tomorrow, again, with only you and Chu Cheng appearing on camera. The rest of the cast will have their live streams during the next recording session.”
Upon hearing this, everyone understood that the production team was planning to make an official announcement. However, unlike other shows that like to save their trump cards for the grand finale, “Youth Tour” clearly had a different style. They intended to drop a bombshell by announcing the participation of their most popular trio: Lian Jingxing, Yu Anyi, and Ji Qingzhou. The production team aimed to generate buzz and discussion by first announcing their involvement, leveraging their immense popularity among the audience.
This approach was not unheard of, so no one was too surprised, and they all expressed their willingness to cooperate.
When the bonfire party was over, Ji Qingzhou and Chu Cheng returned home, both feeling tired. They washed up briefly, turned off the camera, and fell asleep in bed.
The next morning, the crowing of the rooster woke Ji Qingzhou up. He felt it was too noisy, so he covered his ears and drilled into Chu Cheng’s arms, which woke Chu Cheng up instead.
