Chapter 146 -146: Flying Guest Exposed!
Director Sun: “???”
Jiang Li smiled and said, “In the past, the show crew collected our good scores before providing us with ingredients. But most of the dishes tonight are made by the villagers. The fish soup you just drank was also from a fish given to me by a villager. There’s no such thing as a free lunch, not to mention we contributed to the dinner too, shouldn’t everyone get some points?”
Director Sun: “!!!”
He stiffly put down his bowl and chopsticks, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.
“Xiao Li, that’s not how the rules are used.”
Jiang Li nonchalantly said, “But the crew didn’t set any rules stating that we need to manage the director’s meals either.”
...
“Hahahahaha, I’m dying of laughter! I’ve only seen directors reducing the guests’ points before; this is the first time I’ve seen a guest reduce the director’s.”
“Good job, Jiang Li! When Director Sun was filming that countryside variety show, he really tormented my Xiaxia; now I finally see him being tormented by someone else.”
“Sister Li really knows how to exploit loopholes in rules, love it.”
The nearby villagers, who had been curiously watching since Director Sun sat down, couldn’t help themselves after hearing their conversation.
They had long heard that the show crew not only made these celebrities work like farmers but even withheld food from them. Even when it was just to experience life, it shouldn’t be this severe.
“Director, I think Master Jiang has a point, this meal is provided by the people of Chixia Village because they see them going hungry every day. You guys hide away every day eating and drinking luxuriously. Now you come over to freeload. You should at least show some gratitude, right?” Aunt Ying hurriedly said.
Director Sun’s face heated up.
It seemed like he’d have to avoid dining with them in the future.
“That’s right, Teacher Sun,” the village chief added, feeling guilty about having had to expel Jiang Li earlier. He seized the opportunity to speak on her behalf, “Look at these kids, they’ve only been here two days and they look all pale and scrawny. Anyone who didn’t know better might think Chixia Village is a harsh and impoverished place. In my opinion, why don’t you give each a few dozen of those good scores, it’d cheer the kids up.”
Director Sun was startled.
Dozens of points?! That’s way too generous!
But as more and more eyes turned towards him, Director Sun felt embarrassed and could only pretend to cough while gesturing frantically to the assistant director and assistant.
However, they all deliberately looked away.
It was fine when they ignored them during the meal, but now they thought of them when they couldn’t save face. They didn’t want to be the bad guys!
Helplessly, Director Sun had to agree.
“Okay, okay, you’ve all been serious these past days, I’ll give everyone two good scores.”
“Yay!!!” Everyone except Jiang Li and He Yun cheered.
Qi Tianyu said, “Director, why not give my two points to Sister Li? I’m leaving tomorrow afternoon, and she deserves the most credit for tonight’s meal.”
Director Sun extended a finger and shook it, “No, no, no, your good scores are still useful.”
“Useful for what?”
“They will be passed on to the next guest.”
Hearing this, everyone perked up.
“Director Sun, who is the next guest?” Qi Tianyu asked. “Do I know them?”
