Chapter 69 69. Mission Time remaining: minutes
The area of a single floor of the small villa is not large, so even though it has three floors, there are eight of them after all, and with the division of labor, cleaning is relatively easy.
The only one who felt troublesome was Qiu Ruoran.
But she felt that what was troublesome was not the cleaning itself, but Jiang Xuan herself.
"Sister Qiu, this bucket of water must be dirty, right? I'll go change it for you."
"Sister Qiu, are you thirsty? I just boiled a pot of water."
"There's a lot of garbage here, I'll help you clean it up first."
……
Qiu Ruoran really felt speechless.
She knew that she was not popular, so why did Jiang Xuan keep trying to please her since they were in the car?
She really couldn't understand.
But up to now, Jiang Xuan hasn't done anything bad to her, so she doesn't have any bad feelings towards Jiang Xuan.
But this kind of good thing came so suddenly that she really couldn't like it.
"Jiang Xuan, you are tired too, right? Go over there and rest first. I can handle it here by myself." Qiu Ruoran almost exploded when she saw Jiang Xuan's footprints appear on the ground that she had already cleaned.
But she finally held back and said these words calmly.
[Ding! The target person's favorability towards the host has been detected to be declining. The remaining time for mission two is three minutes.]
Oh ~
It turns out that her second task is to increase Qiu Ruoran's favorability.
Today's wine seems to be thoughtful.
Jin Ci saw that she seemed to be secretly paying attention to Jiang Xuan, so she came over with some curiosity.
"what happened?"
“I found something interesting.”
When Jin Ci heard that something interesting was happening, she wanted to ask about the situation, but when she saw the cameraman coming over, she stopped asking.
She was very clear that it was somewhat abnormal for Jinjiu to say that it was a fun thing.
Jiang Xuan on the other side naturally kept pestering Qiu Ruoran. She even seemed a little anxious because there were only three minutes left for the task and she was eager to complete it.
Her efforts even seemed strange and pitiful to the audience.
[Is Qiu Ruoran okay? My Xuanxuan was kind enough to help her, fetching and boiling water, but Qiu Ruoran didn't even give her a good look! ]
[Well... Actually, I've wanted to say this for a long time. Is Jiang Xuan a fan of Qiu Ruoran? It's obvious from her attitude in the car. Others are here to participate in the variety show, but Jiang Xuan is the only one here to chase stars.]
[Haha, I feel so sorry for my Xuanbao. She tried so hard to please him, but Qiu Ruoran treated her coldly and didn’t even apologize. Now she wants to drive my Xuanbao away.]
The audience almost unanimously sympathized with Jiang Xuan. After all, they didn't know anything about the mission.
In their eyes, Jiang Xuan is Qiu Ruoran's little fan who tries hard to chase her idol, but unfortunately her idol not only ignores her, but even hates her a little.
But no matter what they thought, it could not change the result of Jiang Xuan's mission failure.
[Ding! The mission time has expired, mission 20 failed, mission penalty: popularity -1, beauty level -. ]
At the same time as the mission failed, Jiang Xuan's skin seemed not as white and smooth as before.
It's like a stain on a piece of white paper; it's not obvious, but it does exist.
"Really..." Damn it.
Hearing that her mission had failed, Jiang Xuan subconsciously wanted to curse, but she finally held it back, though she still couldn't maintain her friendly smile. "What's wrong?"
Seeing Qiu Ruoran suddenly looking at her, Jiang Xuan gave a forced smile: "It's okay, since Sister Qiu feels that I have affected you, then I won't continue to be a hindrance here."
After saying that, Jiang Xuan left with a disappointed look on her face.
Qiu Ruoran: “???”
Qiu Ruoran didn't know what Jiang Xuan wanted to do, but seeing her leave, she could finally have some peace and quiet, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Since no one else was causing trouble, it took everyone three hours to clean the entire small building from top to bottom.
It was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
The group of people didn't even have lunch, and after cleaning up, they were already growling with hunger.
"Director, where is our lunch?" Jiang Xuan seemed to have forgotten the fall she had made with Qiu Ruoran before. She quickly recovered and asked the director calmly.
The director cleared his throat and said, "Isn't your lunch already on the table?"
Already on the table?
Everyone looked at the table in surprise, only to see four baskets on the table that Jinjiu and his four companions had just taken from the old lady.
"Originally, the plan was to have you complete the task assigned by the old lady before giving you the food, but..." The director sighed halfway through his speech, "But the old lady said that you are too polite, so she didn't want to embarrass you, so she just gave you lunch."
The director's regret here is not fake, he really feels regretful.
Who doesn’t want to see celebrities completing tasks to eat when they are hungry?
But there was nothing they could do. It was as if Jinjiu knew their arrangements and went straight to say hello before entering the small western-style building. No one knew what he said or did when he greeted them, but the old lady just took out the things.
"Then let's eat." Xu Zixuan originally thought that he would really have to go on the mission on an empty stomach, but he didn't expect that there would be ready-made food.
Everyone else was also very happy, except Jiang Xuan, who was very upset.
If she had known that the old lady was an important NPC, she would never have ignored anything she said, and even made a fool of herself.
However, she was mentally strong and quickly adjusted her mindset. She smiled and said to Jin Jiu, "In that case, we have to thank sister Jin Jiu. Otherwise, we would have to go on the mission on an empty stomach."
"Yes, thank you." Chang Xue nodded in agreement and thanked him.
Seeing this, others also thanked him. Jin Jiu didn't hesitate and nodded slightly, then stepped forward and lifted the cloth covering the four baskets.
The director was a relatively humane person. Although the original plan was to let them complete the mission on an empty stomach, the food rewards for this mission were not bad.
The first basket is bread, the second basket is hard-boiled eggs, the third basket is juice, and the fourth basket is cut watermelon.
There are staple foods, drinks and even fruits. The meal is not luxurious, but it is pretty good.
"Everyone wash your hands and eat."
Everything comes in exactly eight portions, so there’s no need to share. Everyone just takes their own portion and starts eating.
After finishing the meal, everyone sat on their chairs and prepared to take a break. The director team also finished their meal and prepared to start making trouble.
"How did everyone like lunch?"
"good."
"Not bad, I'm full."
"Director, just tell me what you want to do."
The director chuckled, then said bluntly: "After dinner, let's move on to the first step, collecting things."
