Once inside the RV, Song Jianchu’s face was still slightly flushed. Mu Ye followed behind and closed the RV door.
Pei Shinian had already changed into his pajamas and asked, “Boss, do you want to take a shower first?”
Song Jianchu replied, “You guys go ahead.”
Mu Ye said to Pei Shinian, “You go first.”
Pei Shinian looked at the two of them and was a little uneasy about leaving them alone together.
“Okay, I’ll go wash quickly.” Pei Shinian hurried into the bathroom.
The sound of water came from the bathroom. Song Jianchu opened his luggage and took out a set of pajamas that Yin Chi had prepared for him.
He took a quick glance at the pajamas and forcefully stuffed them into the bottom of the luggage.
Since it was only a three-day, two-night trip, Yin Chi had only packed one set of pajamas for him, and he had immediately noticed the cartoon version of Mu Ye printed on it.
This set of pajamas was a limited edition merchandise from Mu Ye’s previous concert, and Song Jianchu often wore it at home because of its comfortable fabric.
Yin Chi had the password to his house, and the clothes in the luggage were taken from there.
Song Jianchu squatted in front of the luggage, grinding his teeth in frustration.
He had at least dozens of sets of pajamas in his closet, so why did Yin Chi have to give him this one? Was this guy crazy?
Fortunately, he acted quickly and the camera inside the RV didn’t have time to capture the pattern on the pajamas.
The luggage now only contained heavy and warm clothing, and Song Jianchu closed the luggage and stood up.
“Did your friend not pack any pajamas for you?” A gentle voice suddenly came from behind.
Song Jianchu calmly replied, “No. I can go without changing.”
Mu Ye took out a comfortable-looking T-shirt and shorts from his own luggage and handed them over. “If you don’t mind, you can wear mine first. They’re all new.”
Song Jianchu looked down at Mu Ye’s clothes and hesitated for a moment.
The Demon King’s army couldn’t sit still any longer.
[“Standing punishment? Hurry up and pick up!!”]
[“Baby, reach out quickly!”]
[“This is much more precious than the concert merchandise pajamas! Fool can take it home and collect it! No one will take back a set of pajamas!!”]
[“Sleeping in the clothes of the male god, it’s almost like being held by the male god while sleeping!”]
Song Jianchu hesitated for two seconds, then reached out and took the clothes: “Thank you.”
Just now, Pei Shinian changed clothes directly in the RV, and the male artist didn’t care about it either. The camera wasn’t even covered.
Song Jianchu didn’t care either. He turned around and put the pajamas on the bed below, lifted the hem of the shirt, and was about to take it off.
[“Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah”]
[“Hehe, watching my son record a variety show and there’s still good stuff like this.”]
[“Brother Nan, your movements were too fast just now and we couldn’t see clearly. Slow down a bit and let sister take a look!!”]
[“Are all guys this fair-skinned nowadays??”]
Just as Song Jianchu raised his arm, the hem of the shirt was suddenly pulled down: “?”
Mu Ye’s gaze swept over the strong, thin, fair waist of the young man, and he raised his hand to stop the young man’s movements: “Wait a minute.”
Mu Ye pulled the curtain, scanned the camera positions in the RV, and picked up several towels to block all the lenses.
[“Go ahead and change.”]
The screen suddenly disappeared, and only the sound could be heard.
The barrage was filled with wolf howls.
[“Darn it!!!”]
[“He’s so considerate, so good at taking care of kids.”]
After blocking the lenses, Mu Ye naturally turned around to find his own clothes.
Song Jianchu changed his clothes quickly in three or two moves.
As he turned around, his eyes flickered slightly.
Mu Ye stood under the bed, his back turned as he took off his shirt.
The man’s shoulders were much wider than his own, and his waist was powerful and tight. The beautiful and sexy muscles on his back moved with each motion.
Sensing the gaze behind him, Mu Ye paused for a second in his movements.
Remembering the calm and focused expression of the man, he felt a tingle in his heart.
His interest was piqued once again.
Instead of hurrying to put on his clothes, he held them in his hands and turned around boldly. With a slight smile, he gave a suggestive look from the corner of his eye.
The coldness in the young man’s eyes melted away, and his fair skin visibly reddened from his neck to his ears, perfectly blending with his light pink hair.
Song Jianchu realized that he seemed to have a talent for reading people’s expressions, and he accurately understood the meaning in the man’s eyes once again.
It was already late, and they probably didn’t have time for a date tonight. His sugar daddy was actively trying to compensate for the fifty million yuan he had wasted today in another way.
He was so eager that his fingers had even lightly opened the waistband of his pants.
Song Jianchu quickly looked away.
The bathroom door opened just in time, stopping the man’s overly enthusiastic actions.
“I’m done washing up, you guys can go ahead,” Pei Shinian said as he came out of the bathroom, towel drying his hair. He looked at his brother and exclaimed, “Damn, brother, you’ve been working out again? Your abs are amazing!”
Mu Ye gave him a cool glance and said, “The store manager should go first.”
“Okay,” Song Jianchu immediately grabbed a towel and entered the bathroom. He moved too quickly and the door slammed shut with a loud noise.
The program PD knocked on the door of the RV outside. “Today’s recording is over, we only left the outdoor camera for continued filming. Everyone, rest early.”
Pei Shinian replied, “Okay, PD, you’ve worked hard too.”
Mu Ye had already changed his clothes.
As the sound of water filled the bathroom, Pei Shinian leaned in to his older brother’s ear and whispered, “Brother, you were a bit too enthusiastic towards your fanboy today, always sticking to him and even taking off your clothes in front of him. Tone it down tomorrow, or the fans might start shipping you two.”
Mu Ye pushed past the person blocking his way and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.
Pei Shinian, still worried, said, “Why don’t we switch beds later? I’ll sleep on top of him…”
Mu Ye lazily lifted his gaze while holding the water bottle. “Aren’t you tired?”
Pei Shinian hesitated. “Yes, I am. It took me an hour and a half to peel only ten potatoes today. Peeling potatoes is more tiring than lifting weights.”
Mu Ye replied in a flat tone, “Then go to bed early, or Gu Jiaming won’t pay you.”
Pei Shinian said, “…oh.”
After being tormented by the variety show’s madness on the first day of filming, Song Jianchu washed up and went to bed early, setting his alarm. He didn’t even know when the person on the top bunk had climbed up.
The next day at six o’clock, before the sun had fully risen, the alarm clock rang once, and Song Jianchu immediately reached over and turned it off.
The previous day had been too busy, and the other two slept soundly without being disturbed.
Song Jianchu was the first to get up, quietly finishing his morning routine in the bathroom without a camera. He took out a small medicine box he carried with him and swallowed his morning pills before silently leaving the RV, wrapping himself in a down jacket and heading out to inspect the storefront renovation project.
When the director team, who were setting up for a morning shot, saw the first person coming out of the RV, they were all surprised.
[“Wow, little brother woke up so early!”]
[“No wonder he’s the store manager!! Awesome!!”]
[“He looks like he hasn’t slept yet, haha. Stinky treasure, you’ve worked hard!”]
The building materials had already been flown away by helicopter the night before, and the construction team had already left, leaving only the person in charge for the handover.
The program’s drone hovered over the forest, capturing a distant view of the small dilapidated wooden hut on a clearing in the woods that disappeared and was replaced by a two-story wooden villa.
Both levels had full-length windows as walls, allowing the soft morning light to illuminate the tables and the interior with a simple and natural decoration, making the most of natural light sources to save on electricity costs.
The upper level was entirely dedicated to dining, with a terrace designed as an outdoor dining area.
The outermost part had a row of wooden bar counters facing down the mountain, providing an excellent viewpoint from the mountaintop to appreciate the scenic beauty of the surrounding forest and the clouds below.
The lower level housed the core service functions, divided into a ground floor restaurant, a kitchen, and a drink preparation area.
A new signboard with the beautiful words “Grandma Li’s Cuisine” engraved on a natural wooden board in a natural style was hung above the door of the restaurant.
Apart from the basic furnishings and newly added tables, the restaurant did not have too many appliances. All the equipment was left behind by the production team and could be used by Grandma Li after they left, providing a convenient and comfortable infrastructure for running the restaurant.
[“Is it done in just one night?!”]
[“It’s too fast, how did they do it?”]
[“Someone in the industry says that architectural renovations can be done quickly as long as you have enough money. (lights a cigarette)”]
[“It’s so beautiful! The design concept is really great!”]
[“I want to go!!”]
After carefully inspecting the project, Song Jianchu was satisfied and paid extra gratuities to all the people involved in the overnight renovation work using his own money.
Since he was already up, he did not go back to sleep after accepting the construction. Instead, he asked the program team for some food ingredients and went to the new kitchen to make breakfast for the employees.
[“When I was watching the live broadcast, I doubted whether this guy was showing off, but now it looks like he can really cook.”]
[“I feel like the Demon King’s little brother is quite suitable for daily life. I want to marry him.”]
[“If you want to marry the Weibo richest man, you must at least be the most beautiful on Weibo.”]
[“Is he the female version of Mu Ye? Hahaha”]
[“The vegetable porridge looks so delicious!”]
Bai Xingyu was the second to wake up because of his martial arts training since childhood, and he did not have the habit of sleeping in.
After his morning exercise in the mountains, he returned to the newly renovated storefront, standing on the first floor with his hands behind his back, slowly admiring the surroundings.
In the kitchen, he noticed the vegetable porridge and fried eggs in the insulated container, raising an eyebrow.
As he ascended to the second floor, he saw their manager sitting at the bar, observing the sunrise over the rolling hills and sea of clouds, holding a cup of coffee with his arms crossed in relaxation.
He sat down next to the manager and asked, “Did you make the breakfast downstairs?”
Song Jianchu glanced at him and then looked into the distance before responding with a simple “Mm.”
It was the mealtime for the program crew, but they hadn’t started recording yet, so the guests were not wearing microphones.
Bai Xingyu had been curious since yesterday and finally asked, “Why did you come on this variety show?”
“You don’t seem like the type who is here to chase after celebrities,” Bai Xingyu said, seeing through everything with his status as a top star. “With your credentials, you don’t need to go through so much trouble just to meet a star. You can easily invest and become their patron, and have a meal with them whenever you want, and it’s even more convenient to talk in private.”
Song Jianchu took a sip of his coffee and didn’t answer immediately.
After several seconds, he said calmly, “Indeed, I’m not here to chase after celebrities.”
The morning sun shone in his eyes, his face displaying a lazy yet candid expression.
His gaze dropped down to the person who had just stepped out of the RV and said, “Chasing after celebrities is not difficult, and when I want to, I can do it easily. He’s right there.”
Bai Xingyu followed his gaze and raised an eyebrow.
The man with his hands in his coat pockets turned his head to look over, his eyes shimmering with a misty beauty as he gave a lazy smile.
Song Jianchu continued, looking at the man below, “I came here because I wanted to.”
