Chapter 171: This, is… Chopsticks

Jiao Xiaofu looked at Luo Heng in surprise. “Aren’t you in the same group as her today? Chen Che is with me.”

Chen Che smiled. “Where’s your manager?’1

Jiao Xiaofu smiled as she pointed into the distance. “He’s sleeping in the nanny van over there. But after seeing your performance this morning, I think you’re very interesting. You added a lot of exciting screen time with me.”

Luo Heng gave him a thumbs up. “So it’s still about the manager. Look, other managers have good taste.”

Chen Che shook his head. “Maybe he had a preconceived impression of me. He had a prejudice against me from the beginning, so he had subjective emotions. It can’t be said that he has no taste at all.”

Luo Heng smiled at her. “You’re still speaking up for him now?”

Jiao Xiaofu shook her head. “I just want to protect Sister Lin Xi. It has nothing to do with the manager.”

Luo Heng pretended to be enlightened and nodded. “I understand now.”

The corners of Chen Che’s mouth curled up. “The two of you arc really good partners! Finishing each other’s sentences!”

Luo Heng nodded in agreement. “A double act.”

Chen Che gave Luo Heng a thumbs up. “Flow Heavenly King, you’re ruthless.”

She looked at Luo Heng curiously. “Do your fans know that you’re so glib-tongued? We should expose you and make you lose fans.”

“Haha.” Jiao Xiaofu laughed. Luo Heng did not care. Clearly, he liked to cause mischief himself.

However, they could not help but look to the other side. Zhang Enyi and Lin Xi were still talking.

In fact, there was no absolute right or wrong in this matter. From their respective standpoints, it made sense.

Brother Liu’s position was to guard against Chen Che from the moment he entered the production team because Chen Che was indeed an outdated artiste who wanted to ride of the coat tails of a new rising star.

Although he was on guard at first, this was also the attitude of a normal manager.

He always wanted to get close to Luo Heng because of the company’s intentions.

The reason for his excitement was that later on, Lin Xi privately appeared in front of Chen Che, which indirectly meant that he was right to be wary of Chen Che.

Especially when Lin Xi did such a thing when he was not paying attention when she was boarding the plane. This was undoubtedly Brother Liu’s negligence!

Therefore, Brother Liu became even stricter with Lin Xi in the future. It was reasonable to prevent Chen Che from taking the opportunity to approach.

However, his style, attitude, and the smugness in his eyes seemed a little too ostentatious.

He might have been holding back this anger until today.

Was Lin Xi really wrong?

Indeed, she should not have helped Chen Che on her own.

Chen Che had saved Lin Xi back then and was injured himself.

However, all of this did not make their relationship even closer.

On the contrary, under the pressure of the surrounding audience’s discussion, they were still putting on an act and applying medicine for the other party. ’Brother Liu, have you forgotten all this yourself?’

After all, although Lin Xi was an artiste in your company, she was not a machine.

She also had her own feelings and emotions.

Previously, the other party had even joked that he wanted to drag her to bed. Even though Lin Xi knew that he was just saying that out of anger, from then on, she had never paid attention to him in private.

Until that day, when Chon Che saved her but injured her back.

For this, their relationship might need some repayment, even if it was just applying medicine by her personally.

However, there were indeed some things that were not considered.

For example, it was actually very sensitive for celebrities to participate in other activities behind the company’s back.

However, Lin Xi thought that she had only seen the recording scene at the airport by chance and did not expect Chen Che to be there. Her appearance might have been unintentional, but she was still discovered.

As Lin Xi’s management company, Windrun had also dealt with this sensitive problem.

For example, they asked her manager to keep an eye on the artistes and warn the production team not to always arrange for them to interact.

This was understandable. After all, it had already happened.

However, it would be a little too much to ask the artists of other companies to stay away from Lin Xi.

After all, you can only control your own artistes. The people outside are not under your jurisdiction.

As for Chen Che, he did not let Lin Xi appear on screen for him privately, nor did he know in advance that she would participate in ‘Flower Boys’.

After the incident, in order to avoid misunderstandings, he had been handling things in private and had even hidden it from Lin Xi.

He was so cautious that he didn’t even let her participate in such a small matter as riding a bicycle.

It seemed like a joke, but in fact, he was avoiding it.

In the end, when they were eating, Chen Che was also pulled to sit down by Lin Xi.

At that time, he saw Brother Liu holding a lunch box while Lin Xi sat there alone.

“Who the hell arc you? What privileges do you have?”

Chen Che did not want Lin Xi to leave such an impression in front of everyone, especially because of him.

However, he still seemed a little nervous. This was indeed his problem.

All in all, everyone had their reasons, but none of them did well enough.

In the end, right or wrong, the results would surface.

Brother Liu was chased out of the production team. What would happen next?

How would Lin Xi be treated by the company?

What kind of situation would Chen Che face?

None of this was something he could consider.

Chen Che scolded Brother Liu for being a fool in his heart, but he might not be smart himself.

As long as Brother Liu was not agitated and did not attract everyone’s attention, the matter would not blow up at all after recording this episode.

But now, sigh…

“Everyone’s here!”

At the Barter International Expo Center, the teams gathered again.

They took on the identity of different vendors, but their dressing was different from before.

Although it looked a little tacky, it reflected their personal identity as vendors. It was just for fun.

With the four teams gathered, everyone teased each other.

Zhao Chao and the other teams faced the camera. “After ten years of development, everyone has changed. It also reflects the changes of the times. Most importantly, we entered the world this year.’1

Zhao Chao looked around. The subtitles said: Join the WTO.

“After entering the world, what changes will there be in our business?” Chen Che asked.

“Our small products have to go to the international market. Now, after joining the World Trade Organization, we have to learn to speak English first,” Zhao Chao said.

“How do you say this in English?” Luo Heng pointed at the chopsticks in Jin Song’s hand.

Everyone looked at Zhao Chao.

“This, is… chopsticks,” Zhao Chao said confidently after a moment of silence.

Everyone laughed.

“This, is,shut,up.” Jin Song picked up his chopsticks and blocked Zhao Chao’s mouth. Zhao Chao could not help but laugh,

“Although it’s now, there’s still a shadow in my heart,” Zhao Chao said after Jin Song removed his chopsticks.

Everyone laughed again.

Then, the official segment began.

The purpose of this segment was to let everyone experience how to complete international trade in the business center of bartering and make the country richer and stronger.

However, dealing with foreign vendors was full of jokes. When calculating orders, everyone could not calculate simple maths.

In the end, Jiao Xiaofu easily solved the problem and helped the other teams complete the mission.

After the mission was completed, everyone took photos and cheered with the foreign businessmen.

Next, everyone headed to the next mission location..
