Shen Xingsui felt that his ears and body started to burn.

These… dangerous words were too sudden. He thought he was having auditory hallucinations or something. How could he… huh? Why? What??

In an instant, his face turned red like a boiled shrimp. His face, his ears, his neck… even down his chest were all flushing red. After hearing this rogue sentence, he even felt ashamed… Ugh, why was his heart beating so fast? It’s too embarrassing!

Fu Jinxiao straightened his body again. He was looking forward to seeing the youth’s reaction.

However, before Shen Xingsui could speak, he bolted away like a scared little rabbit!

Fu Jinxiao raised his eyebrows, and heard chaotic footsteps echoing in the hallway. That little rabbit sure ran away quickly, as if there was some scourge chasing behind him.

The actor was silent for a while before letting out a muffled laughter.

Shen Xingsui ran downstairs, and several people downstairs looked at him suspiciously.

Shen Xingchen asked curiously, “What’s wrong with you?”

Shen Xingsui panicked, panting heavily while shaking his head, “It’s nothing.”

The cameramen downstairs were still there, and they all looked at each other curiously. They were all regretting that no one stayed upstairs just now, not knowing what happened.

Shen Xingchen teased his younger brother and said, “Looking like this, did someone eat your tofu1a more… soft? Less scummy? molestation. Like, it doesn’t have as much as negative connotation as actual molestation. or something?”

Shen Xingsui blushed even more. He already looked quite delicate, but with this furious blush, he looked like a girl from a good family who met a pervert while she was running.

Seeing that he didn’t speak, Shen Xingchen got excited. He put his shoulders on Shen Xingsui’s shoulder and joked, “Even if there are really some perverts going at you, you don’t have to be afraid. Erge will stand up for you, and I will definitely protect you. Let me see who dares to bully you. I will definitely slap…”

Fu Jinxiao, who was upstairs just now, walked downstairs.

Compared to the shy and flustered Shen Xingsui, Fu Jinxiao was very calm and relaxed. He came over and just heard Shen Xingchen’s words, and asked lightly, “Slap who?”

Shen Xingchen froze from pure reflex. His gut instinct warned him that if he answered wrong, he’ll be (metaphorically) fucked. He shrank his neck and meekly said, “Slap myself!!”

Shen Xingsui next to him: “?”

The viewers in the live broadcast room were also impressed by these two reactions:

[The pecking order here is very clear.]

[Hahaha, our Young Master Shen can be cowardly at times too!]

[What, you just sold your didi like this?]

[Suisui is confused now.]

All of the guests and crew chatted happily, only Anran nearby wasn’t very happy. In his previous life, he was still very popular during this reality show. He had many good friends, he was very well-cared for by Actor Fu, he had many shots, and his missions were done smoothly. He was the natural center of attention, as he should be.

He still didn’t understand why everything went to shit in this rebirth.

Not only did he fail to become the center of the crowd, he was completely ignored. He thought that with his previous life’s experience, everything would be far easier! Who knew his effort would be in vain and a waste of time!

It’s all Shen Xingsui’s fault…

If it weren’t for him, maybe everything would be fine.

The director not far away came over and said, “Since everyone has finished eating, we will take you to your respective lodgings. But before that, we will give you the relevant benefits.”

“We have benefits?”

The director smiled and said, “Of course, but only the winning group that completes the task can enjoy the benefits.”

Everyone: “…”

The director was technically telling the truth, but that did not diminish their bloodlust towards him.

It only amplified it.

The director asked the staff behind to take out a few trays. He introduced the items enthusiastically, “It’s like this, everyone. The winning team members can choose a reward item by themselves. As for the losing team… well.” The director’s smile only got wider.

Shen Xingsui took a closer look, but he didn’t expect it to be a… mosquito repellent kit. Mosquito net, anti-bug spray, mosquito coil… and others.

Fu Jinxiao said, “You take it first.”

Shen Xingsui refused, “It’s okay Teacher Fu, you can take whatever you want first.”

Fu Jinxiao lazily glanced at him. He coaxed the youth with a gentle tone that was hard to deny, “Just choose whichever you like. I’ll defer to you.”

Shen Xingsui finally became honest, and he picked out the mosquito net.

The experienced Instructor Li later lamented, “Why do I suddenly have an ominous feeling when I see these things?”

Tuya raised her head, “Director, didn’t you say that we are going to live in a luxurious suite?

The said director gave everyone a smile: “Of course everyone, we will not tell lies. If we said it’s a luxurious suite, then it is. You will know when you get there. Don’t worry~”

Five minutes later–

Everyone arrived at the southernmost part of the small town. It seemed to be an antique mansion of sorts. It had a majestic gate, painted in crimson; there were two red lanterns hung on it, swaying in the wind. Beside the entrance, there were two finely-carved stone lions. The vegetation was also lush and tall. On top of that, there were people dressed like servants carrying lanterns, as if welcoming their arrival.

The director gestured grandly, “Everyone, welcome to Taohua2“Peach Blossom”. The same Taohua as the name of the town. Villa. According to legend, this is the summer resort where Emperor Shengzu lived in the south of the Yangtze River. For the next five days, we will temporarily  stay here to experience the people and customs of Taohuawu Town!”

The mansion very much lived to the legends. It did looked-like an Imperial residence of the olden days; antique, opulent, full of history.

There was also a small pond in the backyard, which would be beautiful during the day. The garden was full of flowers and unknown vegetation. However, because the climate here was hot, some moths and bugs could even be seen under the dim lights.

Shen Xingchen complained, “I think a mosquito bit me just now.”

Walking beside him, Shen Xingsui was concerned, “What’s wrong?”

“Look.” Shen Xingchen showed his arm, “I have a big red bump on my arm. Those blood-suckers are definitely biting me!”

Shen Xingsui saw that it was true. Shen Xingchen patted his neck and scratched his arm as he continued his complaint, “Here comes another one! Arrghhh, why do they love me so much?”

He looked at his younger brother beside him. He had no bites.

Just when Shen Xingsui was puzzled, a voice came from beside him to explain his doubts. It was actually Li Xu’an. This person’s popularity had always been relatively high, and he was the pillar of Bankrupt Entertainment. All of that company’s top resources were all given to Li Xu’an. He basically could walk sideways3do whatever he wants without repercussions. there.

Li Xu’an explained, “He has a physique that attracts mosquitoes. It’s always been like this.”

Shen Xingsui was a little surprised.

Li Xu’an got a fan from nowhere, and handed it to Shen Xingchen, “You will be much better if you use this fan, the mosquitoes will not be able to get close to you.”

However, Shen Xingchen slapped the fan away, ” No, no, keep it to yourself!”

Li Xu’an could be considered a well-known person, but he was not angry when Shen Xingchen spoke in such a tone.

Only now did Shen Xingsui remember that Shen Xingchen had always disliked Li Xu’an from before. He considered Li Xu’an as his mortal enemy. During “Starlight”, they were fighting for the C position. And Shen Xingchen really gave his all to win that position.

If anything, this all made Shen Xingsui wonder what happened in the first place between them. However, this wasn’t a topic that’s easy to be breached.

The director interrupted his train of thoughts, “Okay, here we go. Everyone take your room card, and go back to your own room.”

Shen Xingchen had already been bitten several times, and his level of complaints only rose.

Seeing the numerous mosquito bites littered his older brother’s body, Shen Xingsui pitied him,  “Is it itchy? You should feel better when you get to your room. Hurry up, go there.”

Shen Xingchen nodded quickly: “Okay, I’ll do that.”

The rooms that the program crew assigned to all of them were relatively close.

Shen Xingsui found his room according to the number. After pushing the door and entering, he found that the room was clean, except that one window was open. When he saw the opened window, he felt a little ominous.

It was currently a hot summer, so he went to the shower room at the back to take a shower. When he came out, he wanted to hang the mosquito net on the bed. While he was busy, he was disturbed by a mosquito.

The cameraman assigned to him also was back by his side.

Shen Xingsui mumbled to nobody in particular, “The mosquitoes sure are plenty here… thankfully, they didn’t bite me too much. With this kind of situation, it would be hard to get a peaceful sleep here.”

The cameraman commented, “Shen Xingchen next door was bitten by mosquitoes several times”

After hearing this, Shen Xingsui was both amused but also distressed.

Netizens in the live broadcast room also said with sympathy:

[It’s extra hard for Shen Xingchen with that kind of mosquito-magnet physique…]

[Yeah, the buzzing and itchiness really makes it hard to sleep.]

Shen Xingsui finally decided, “I’ll go and see him.”

The door of Xingchen’s room was left open, so Shen Xingsui easily came in. Fu Jinxiao just happened to walk past his room, coming back from the shower room outside.

As soon as Shen Xingchen saw these two people, he seemed to see a savior. Without a hesitation, he ran over to Fu Jinxiao and said, “Fu-ge, my savior, please spare me a tiiinyyy bit of your mosquito repellent spray…”

Fu Jinxiao knew that the young master couldn’t bear this suffering. But then he remembered Shen Minglang’s words of letting Shen Xingchen experience “the way of the world”.

“You close this window later.” Fu Jinxiao said as he pointed at it, “Isn’t this room equipped with an air conditioner for you? As soon as the temperature drops, the mosquitoes will naturally stop biting you.”

Shen Xingchen whined without dignity, “That won’t work for me! My body is just weirdly attractive to mosquitoes like that. No matter how low the room’s temperature is, the mosquitoes will still come here to feast on my blood!!”

Fu Jinxiao was firm on his decision to not spoil him, “I can’t give you my repellent spray. Just turn the temperature down, sleep while being covered fully by the quilt, and endure.”

Shen Xingchen’s face was full of reluctance.

Shen Xingsui next to him said in a gentle voice, “It’s okay, just bear with it and it’ll pass.”

Suddenly, Shen Xingchen had an idea, “Suisui, do you have a mosquito net?”

Shen Xingsui was taken aback.

“Then let’s sleep together.” Shen Xingchen hugged him directly without a shame, entangling his arms around his brother’s, “Isn’t this just right? Both you and I will not get bitten at all! Plus, it’s been a long time since we had a sleepover!”

Actor Fu, who was about to leave, halted on his tracks.
