Yi Han frowned, "Director Yu, we agreed this morning."
"Yes, but I've changed my mind."
"How can you just change your mind like that?!"
Yu Siyan nodded, "True, but I don't have much etiquette, do I? You should go now."
Yi Han: ???
[I can't stop laughing, are they all turning into Yi Han now?]
[If you know this young man, you'll realize... he was always like this]
[Yeah, he only seemed normal in the show because of Qiao Xi! Don't speak if you don't understand!]
[Mom fans, rejoice, the familiar recipe and taste are back]
[Wait, wake up! He's going to sleep next to Qiao Xi!]
[What??? Oh, right!!!]
As they argued, a wooden stick tapped Yi Han on the head.
"Get back to your bed."
Qiao Xi appeared behind a one-meter-long stick, smiling mysteriously.
These two were flirting right in front of her?
If someone doesn't die today, it won't be her fault.
Yi Han gritted his teeth and turned to leave.
"Goodnight, Xiao Yi," Yu Siyan quickly climbed into bed, his delicate face peeking out from the covers.
Yi Han: "..."
To Yi Han, this was a provocation.
To Qiao Xi, it was flirting.
That night, Yu Siyan thought something might happen, but nothing did.
Qiao Xi had long since fallen into a deep sleep. The next morning, as she was getting ready to go, Ye Sisi stopped her.
"Sister Xi..." Ye Sisi bit her lip. "I thought it over and decided to tell you. We've formed an alliance with Zhou Ninghuan's team."
[She just spilled the beans?!]
[If I were Zhou Ninghuan, I'd be furious!]
[Too bad I want Qiao Xi to win, I'm cheering for Ye Sisi, hahaha]
Qiao Xi responded, "I know."
Ye Sisi was stunned, "Huh?"
She had agonized over this all night!
It felt like betraying her team, but she didn't want to see Qiao Xi lose in this situation; she wanted to compete fairly.
"They're practically making out; how could I not notice?" Qiao Xi patted her shoulder. "Let's get to work."
[Qiao Xi! Shut up! Stop spreading rumors!!!]
[Good thing this is live; otherwise, it would be all over the trending topics, with the first being "Zhou Ninghuan and Duan Fulin Kissed"]
[You know the edits on Xiaomang well]
Under the scorching sun, the group worked hard on plot two, sweating profusely!
"Come on! We must beat Qiao Xi!"
"Yes! Crush their team!"
The ten people worked tirelessly, and by 3 PM, only one-fifth of the work remained!
"Let's take a break!" Ye Sisi clapped her hands. "Old Sun brought water; drink up and then keep going."
Zhou Ninghuan chugged a whole bottle and looked up, "According to Qiao Xi's speed yesterday, they should still have half left, right?"
"We checked at noon," Zhang Shu replied. "She was lazing around eating the villagers' watermelon."
The whole team laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" A familiar voice called out.
They turned around.
Qiao Xi stood there, holding a bucket of freshly squeezed milk, sipping from a straw.
"Did something unhappy happen? Share it with me so I can be happy too?"
Zhang Shu teased, "We're betting on whether we can win the show's prize today! What do you think, Teacher Qiao? Can we do it?"
"Why ask her?! She'll just say we can't!" Zhou Ninghuan immediately said, "Qiao Xi, not to brag, but with so little land left and tools, can't you try harder? Winning against you is too easy; it's like—"
He mimicked Qiao Xi's gesture from yesterday, "You only need a hand~"
Everyone laughed again.
[Oh my gosh, he's so good at imitating Qiao Xi, hahaha]
[Even if you eat three Qiao Xi's, you can't act like her]
[Karma, the heavens won't let you off!]
[Three machines can't beat ten people, amazing, really slacking!]
Qiao Xi finished the last sip of milk and tossed the container into the big trash can.
She then motioned for them to follow her, "Huan, Lin, come to Papa's field, I've got something to show you."
The faces of the two behind her darkened.
"Fine, we'll go!" Zhou Ninghuan grabbed Duan Fulin. "We'll see how embarrassed you get!"
The group followed neatly behind, arriving at the edge of plot one.
One look and they were shocked!
Everywhere they looked, the land had been tilled?!
They were stunned.
[What the heck! Is the whole field done?!]
[Wait, no, there's more, the director didn't tell us]
Zhou Ninghuan and Duan Fulin exchanged glances, reassured.
The director didn't say anything, so they must have only tilled this side.
The other side must still have a lot of unfinished land!
Zhou Ninghuan asked angrily, "What did you want to show us?"
"This." Qiao Xi pointed with her foot at the ground.
They looked where she pointed.
A small patch of ground, the size of a fist, was exposed, clearly different from the rest, and untouched.
The other team members: "What's there to see!"
"Don't rush, get closer." Qiao Xi set down the hoe.
Zhou Ninghuan and Duan Fulin moved closer.
Qiao Xi: "Watch closely."
What was she going to show?
The two were puzzled, getting closer and closer.
Just then, Director Jin appeared.
"Qiao Xi's team... wins."
She almost gritted her teeth saying it!
Zhou Ninghuan: ?
Duan Fulin: ??
[??????]
[They won? The whole field's done?!]
[So they left a fist-sized patch untouched, just waiting for Zhou Ninghuan's team to come and finish it?!]
[Damn! She's so sly, so sly, so sly, sly, sly]
[Look at Zhou Ninghuan's face, it's priceless, hahaha]
[I watched the replay, the way they got closer and closer, it's unimaginable]
[Who's feeling this, folks? My boss is in a meeting, and I thought about every sad thing in my life, but I couldn't hold it in, damn! Writing a self-reflection now]
"Qiao Xi! You wicked woman!" Zhou Ninghuan snapped out of it, furious and ready to charge.
Duan Fulin, still rational, grabbed him.
But the next moment, Yu Siyan and the others emerged from behind the trees.
They were dressed to the nines, bowing and loudly shouting, "Thank you, everyone, for coming to witness our team's success! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"
Three thank yous, resounding!
[They even rehearsed this!!!]
[What were they like in the entertainment industry again? I've forgotten]
"Aaaahhhh!" Zhou Ninghuan raged, struggling to get free. "Let me go! I'll kill her! I'll fight her! Aaaahhhh!"
Qiao Xi bowed, flashing a big smile.
After yesterday's feast, the system upgraded, and coincidentally, she received an "Efficiency Pill," boosting her efficiency by five times!
She used it on the machines, and winning was a breeze.
"Director Jin, where's the prize?" Qiao Xi asked.
Director Jin struggled to control her emotions, signaling for the prize to be brought over.
The whole team stepped forward and opened the prize box.
