CHAPTER 429: CHAPTER 427: FOOD AND SEX, THE GREAT DESIRES OF HUMANITY

Most people, if they knew about Feng Susu’s conversation with her today, would think she was inherently promiscuous.

But Wen Qiao didn’t see it that way, she instead found Feng Susu to be quite carefree and open.

Why could men seek women for entertainment when they were lonely, even boasting about such encounters at gatherings, yet when women engaged in the same behavior, they were ruthlessly criticized?

"Food and sex are primal human desires."

Feudal and outdated thoughts should have been discarded long ago.

Actually, Wen Qiao quite wanted to be friends with her.

But thinking of her pining after her own man...

Better not, lest it rekindle suppressed thoughts.

Wen Qiao bit into a sandwich and took a sip of her coffee.

Tsk.

The American coffee was as bitter as ever.

-

Director Li was actually quite laid back.

After the first day’s live broadcast, the content for the next day’s recording was much more relaxed.

That day coincidentally fell during Yun City’s traditional Water-Sprinkling Festival, so Director Li took them to join in the festivities.

The festival was held in the town’s central square, and Wen Qiao, wanting to blend in better, changed into the dress Fu Jinghen had bought for her the day before.

The people of Yun City were very warm and didn’t show any rejection or indifference towards outsiders like them.

Feng Susu indeed did as she had said, staying far away from Fu Jinghen.

But with so many people in the central square, it was inevitable that they would bump into each other.

At that moment, Feng Susu was holding a bucket of water intending to splash it out, but upon seeing Wen Qiao and Fu Jinghen, she abruptly retracted her hand, dousing herself instead.

Wen Qiao, seeing this, couldn’t help but laugh.

Fu Jinghen also witnessed it and asked, "What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing much, just that Feng Susu is quite amusing."

She thought of something and added, "And her nose looks quite natural."

Fu Jinghen: "?"

You didn’t say that yesterday.

-

The morning’s recording ended quickly. Qi Ming and Ning Li, having been voted last in yesterday’s couples poll, were "honorably" tasked by Director Li to help the sanitation workers clean the central square.

Watching everyone else leave with flair, Qi Ming, clutching a broom, muttered resentfully, "They just love to pick on me, clearly Shi Koufan’s group was the worst, why am I the last one? There must be some hidden agenda..."

"Qi Ming."

Ning Li called out to him.

"Hmm?"

"Why don’t you take a break, and I’ll sweep."

Upon hearing this, Qi Ming perked up, swinging his broom enthusiastically, "How could I, Qi Ming, ever abandon a teammate and reap the benefits?"

Ning Li twitched the corner of her eye and gritted her teeth, "But, you’ve just scattered all the debris I had swept together."

"......."

Qi Ming looked down and saw it was true.

Scratching his head sheepishly, he apologized, "Sorry, Little Jinli, I didn’t mean it. Here, you rest, and I’ll sweep."

At some point, Qi Ming’s name for her had changed from Ning Li to Little Jinli.

"You—"

Ning Li was about to say something, but seeing the man looking as guilt-ridden and pitiful as her Golden Retriever that only stared at her when it caused trouble, the words at the tip of her tongue turned into a mere "never mind."

She turned and walked away with the broom to another direction.

Qi Ming quickly followed: "Don’t be mad, Little Jinli. I really didn’t mean to do it, Little Jinli, Little Jinli?"
