“Where’s Zhai Xingchen?” he asked.
“He is in the room.” Hu Ying asked, “Who are you giving the clothes to?”
“I accidentally soiled his down jacket,” Pei Xu said.
Huo Cheng and Yan Zhi glanced at him after hearing this.
“It turns out you stained it for him.” Huo Cheng said.
Pei Xu took the down jacket and went inside.
He gave away the clothes so openly that no one doubted him.
Especially after everyone in the market ate Lin Qingning and his CP.
He soiled Zhai Xingchen’s clothes and it was reasonable to give him a new one. Others would do the same thing.
Yan Zhi turned around and took a look and found that Pei Xu did not enter their bedroom, but just stood at the door and knocked lightly.
Pei Xu still remembered his mysophobia and did not enter their room.
He felt that Pei Xu was particularly qualified in this way.
Huo Cheng might not be so conscious.
“Zhai Xingchen.” Pei Xu called.
Zhai Xingchen poked his head out of the bathroom and Pei Xu waved.
“I’ll give you a new one,” Pei Xu said.
Zhai Xingchen was surprised: “No, you didn’t mean it. I’ll just wipe it off.”
“Stains on white clothes are very conspicuous. Forget it in normal times. This is a recording of a program, so it’s better to wear something clean. I brought several down jackets.” Pei Xu said and handed the down jacket to him: “It might be a little big for you.”
Zhai Xingchen had no choice but to accept it and said, “Thank you.”
Pei Xu said “hmm” and said, “I’m sorry.”
Zhai Xingchen said: “You are exaggerating.”
“Is the water cold?” he asked.
“We have hot water here,” Zhai Xingchen said.
Pei Xu said “hmm” and walked away.
Zhai Xingchen took off the down jacket and found that this one was very similar to the one Pei Xu was wearing. Even the style was the same, except that one was pure black and the other was grey-black.
Pei Xu actually prepared two down jackets for Zhai Xingchen that matched Zhai Xingchen’s size, and the colours were brighter, but he thought about it and took his own down jacket, which would definitely be too big for Zhai Xingchen.
But he felt it was better, more natural, and killed two birds with one stone.
Thinking of Zhai Xingchen wearing his clothes, he felt a strange sense of satisfaction in his heart.
If Zhai Xingchen didn’t return it to him in the future, then Zhai Xingchen could keep wearing it. If Zhai Xingchen returned it to him in the future and he wore it again, even better, he won’t even wash it.
Zhai Xingchen found that there was a hat stuffed in the pocket of the down jacket.
He took out the hat and found that it was a dark blue Bugs Bunny hat.
This was the Bugs Bunny that he saw on his bed when he came to his house, so he remembered it.
The Jinjiang male protagonist could be very considerate as long as he was willing.
Zhai Xingchen wiped the white down jacket and hung it on the wall to dry. He put on the down jacket that Pei Xu gave him and came out.
“Brother Pei’s clothes are so big?” Hu Ying asked, “I thought you two were about the same height.”
Pei Xu immediately said: “We are not the same.”
“How tall is Brother Pei, 188, 189? How tall is Xingchen, 183?”
“Absolutely.” Lin Qingning said.
“That’s not much different, why are the clothes so different?” Hu Ying said.
“Pei Xu looks thin. But he has broad shoulders and a frame bigger than Xingchen.” Lin Qingning said and glanced at Pei Xu.
Looking slim when wearing clothes, and looking muscular when naked, it was Pei Xu they were talking about.
He had an amazing body.
“How about I get you one.” Hu Ying said, “We are about the same figure. My clothes should fit you just right.”
“No need, a bigger down jacket is fine, it’s more comfortable.” Zhai Xingchen replied.
Huo Cheng asked, “Where’s the white one? Don’t you want to wear it anymore?”
“I just wiped it and hung it up,” Zhai Xingchen said.
“The white one is quite nice.” Hu Ying said. “Why didn’t I see that style when I went to the store to buy it? When did you buy it and how much did it cost?”
Zhai Xingchen said: “I didn’t buy it, Brother Huo gave it to me.”
Yan Zhi and Hu Ying were both stunned after hearing this.
But Lin Qingning laughed: “Really? We don’t know when.”
Huo Cheng smiled and said, “It’s just a casual thing. There’s no need to say it specifically.”
Pei Xu found a chair and sat down.
Hu Ying smiled and said, “Brother Huo is very considerate. He even gave down jackets to others.”
“Is my down jacket also a gift from Brother Huo?” Wen Nuo asked very surprised and touched.
Did he finally find the person who gave him the down jacket?
Huo Cheng turned to look at Wen Nuo: “What down jacket?”
Wen Nuo said: “That’s what I’m wearing.”
Huo Cheng said: “That’s really not true.”
Wen Nuo was a little embarrassed, but now that he had said it, he wanted to ask clearly.
“Then who gave me the down jacket?”
Hu Ying asked: “How did you receive it?”
“Someone delivered a suitcase and a down jacket to my store the night before coming here,” Wen Nuo said, “and didn’t leave any message.”
He said and looked at Zhai Xingchen, Yan Zhi and others.
“Who is it?” Hu Ying looked around and finally focused on Zhai Xingchen.
Only Zhai Xingchen cared so much about Wen Nuo.
Zhai Xingchen said: “His clothes are too expensive, I can’t afford to give them away.”
Zhai Xingchen was very curious.
Who, who!
Who gave it to Wen Nuo!
There were only two possibilities for giving Wen Nuo a down jacket. First, he had a crush on Wen Nuo!
Wow…wow…wow, was there a hidden CP line? Then this person must be the type to have a crush.
Then you could pass Huo Cheng first. Among the blue guests, the most likely ones were Yan Zhi and Pei Xu.
He felt that Pei Xu was the most likely to do such a thing!
The first step for the male protagonist of “Jinjiang” when falling in love was secret love.
The second possibility was that this person was simply kind-hearted.
Simple kindness was even rarer, what a considerate person this was!
It felt like Duan Yihua or Lin Qingning were more likely in this case.
It was hard to say.
No one came out to claim it. Obviously the person who sent the clothes did not intend to accept this favour. This was out of good intentions, and no one continued to ask questions.
But the down jacket thing surprised both Hu Ying and Yan Zhi.
They didn’t expect that everyone would do so many little things in private!
Especially Hu Ying, he always thought he was very smart, but now he suddenly felt like a fool!
Yan Zhi liked Zhai Xingchen. And even Huo Cheng, a tall and straight man, could secretly send clothes to Zhai Xingchen!
Even Wen Nuo, who seemed the most harmless, actually hid such a little secret!
“Is it difficult to clean the stains on your down jacket?” He asked Zhai Xingchen, “Actually, the only bad thing about white clothes is that they are unwearable once they are dirty. In fact, I feel that the Pei Xu’s jacket you are wearing now looks better than the previous one.”
How could Huo Cheng not hear what Hu Ying was saying, so he smiled and asked, “Didn’t you praise that down jacket before?”
“But Xingchen looks better in black. White can easily make people look dark, but these are not the main reasons. I work in the clothing industry, and I take a lot of photos, so I have more experience in this. As far as my personal experience is concerned, we are shooting in such an icy and snowy environment, it’s best not to wear white, as it can easily clash with the background and affect the shooting effect.”
What he said was very professional, and it really frightened Lin Qingning and Wen Nuo: “Is it true?”
“Yes, so I suggest you wear cooler colours, such as black, grey and blue. Of course, red is also good.”
While everyone was chatting, Yan Zhi went back to use the toilet.
When he came out, he saw the white down jacket hanging on the wall.
These were actually the clothes Huo Cheng gave to Zhai Xingchen.
Yan Zhi felt that his small house, which belonged to him and Zhai Xingchen alone, had been invaded by outsiders and had become dirty and impure.
What an eyesore.
He felt uncomfortable and wanted to set it on fire.
“Brother Yan!”
He heard Zhai Xingchen calling him and responded. When he came out, he saw Hu Ying and the others holding an envelope and looking at it.
“Is there another mission?”
Hu Ying said: “As we all know, Little Arctic is a famous tourist attraction in China. Here, you can go to the Elk Park to feed the elk, you can climb the Baiyu Mountain to see the scenery of the North, and you can also go to the Ice and Snow World to experience the splendour and fantasy of the ice and snow glaze world. You can also follow the local people to dig into the ice lake and enjoy the loneliness and joy of fishing in winter. Then let us start our journey to the Northland from today.”
He turned the paper and said: “The king has the final say. Please use the method of shaking the sieve to select a guest to be the king. He will designate the afternoon group. The eight guests are divided into four groups and go to Elk Park, Baiyu Mountain, Ice and Snow City, and the nearby Baiyu Lake.”
“The king has the final say?”
“We elect one person, and he decides who will go out with whom this afternoon, and where.” Hu Ying said.
“It’s fair to shake the sieve,” Yan Zhi said, “but it would be a bit unfair to specify later.”
At this time, you must kick your love rival away and leave the best opportunity to yourself.
He somehow felt that Huo Cheng and Hu Ying were good at rolling dice.
“It’s very fair. It’s like rolling dice to determine the winner or loser.” Hu Ying said, “It’s almost the same as when dividing houses.”
What he said further verified Yan Zhi’s conjecture.
Lin Qingning said: “I think it’s okay, it depends on luck.”
He actually didn’t care. He felt that no one would compete with him for Pei Xu. Anyway, no matter who became the king, he would most likely be grouped with Pei Xu.
Lin Qingning played with the small box in her hand: “How to shake it?”
Huo Cheng took the small box over, opened it and took a look at the dice inside.
“Let’s go by the number of points,” he said.
“Brother Duan, wait a minute.” Zhai Xingchen said, “Let’s talk after we eat.”
“I’ll call him.” Wen Nuo said.
Wen Nuo ran out and called Duan Yihua, while Pei Xu and Lin Qingning sat on the table and played.
Pei Xu shook the big one once, two 5s and a 6, and the small one once, two 3s and a 1.
Lin Qingning was similar. Sometimes the points he shook were quite large, and sometimes the points he shook were relatively small.
“This really depends on luck.” Lin Qingning handed the dice to Huo Cheng: “Would you try?”
Huo Cheng said: “I won’t try. I want to save my luck until the official competition.”
Pei Xu suddenly noticed that Huo Cheng’s eyebrows were filled with joy, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
After a while, Duan Yihua and Wen Nuo came over.
“Brother Duan, are you feeling better?” Hu Ying asked with concern.
Duan Yihua nodded and said, “Much better.”
“The market we went to today was very interesting. It’s a pity that you couldn’t go.” Hu Ying said.
“Everyone is here,” Huo Cheng couldn’t wait to say, “Let’s roll the dice?”
“Brother Huo seems to be very good at it.” Pei Xu said lightly.
Huo Cheng raised his nose and said, “I just think I should be very lucky today.”
The meal was about to be ready, so everyone took advantage of the time before eating to roll the dice.
Huo Cheng was very humble this time, he wanted to come last.
Pei Xu’s expression became more serious.
Lin Qingning rolled the dice first, and he rolled a three, a six, and a two, adding up to nine points.
Wen Nuo had better luck, shaking twelve points.
The remaining points were higher or lower, but none of them exceeded Wen Nuo’s.
Pei Xu shook ten points.
Yan Zhi shook nine points.
Zhai Xingchen had the worst luck, scoring only six points.
When it was Hu Ying’s turn, Hu Ying was full of confidence. He shook it with one hand and clasped it directly on the table.
When he opened it, he saw that there were only 11 points.
“Fuck.” Hu Ying was obviously not satisfied.
He didn’t perform well.
“It seems that Wen Nuo is very likely to become the king.” Hu Ying glanced at Huo Cheng and silently prayed for Wen Nuo in her heart. “Actually, Wen Nuo is quite good. I believe he will give everyone a fair share.”
Who didn’t want Wen Nuo to win in the end?
Even if he chose Zhai Xingchen.
Yan Zhi and the others were all nervous because Huo Cheng was the only one left.
No one wanted him to win.
Huo Cheng picked up the dice with a smile and blew into the palm of his hand.
Hu Ying chanted in his mind: “Amitabha, let him be at the bottom.”
