Ruan Xun held a cup of instant noodles, fiddling with it for a while before starting a fire to boil some water. Finally, he unfolded a bowl and filled it with the fragrant noodles.
"Xiao Xi, here you go," he said, placing the steaming bowl on the wooden bench beside her, careful not to burn her. His thoughtfulness was evident.
After finishing, Ruan Xun cast a subtle, provocative glance at Sheng Yanzhou. While Sheng Yanzhou wasn’t angry, he felt compelled to do something for Xiao Xi as well. However, under the control of his rationality, he regrettably swallowed back the words, "Let me feed you."
Ruan Fuxi sat down with her lunchbox, taking bites of noodles and beef rice, causing envy among those nearby who were munching on dry bread.
Han Feier watched them with tears of envy in her eyes. She crouched in a corner, turning her head away and silently battling with her own dry bread in her mouth. If she didn’t look or listen, she wouldn’t be able to smell the delicious aroma of the noodles and rice dishes.
Why did she feel like she wasn’t even participating in the same survival show? The others not only had handsome guys feeding them but two of them!
Seeing how considerate Sheng Yanzhou was towards Ruan Fuxi stirred jealousy within Shi Lili once again. Especially when she noticed Ruan Fuxi accepting food from both Lu Xun and Sheng Yanzhou without hesitation. Unable to hold back, she spoke up.
"Xiao Xi, your charm is incredible! You’re so lucky—unlike me, who has nothing."
Ruan Fuxi didn’t even lift her head. "Oh? Whose fault is that?"
Shi Lili was momentarily taken aback by her retort but continued, "You accepted food from both of them? Isn’t that a bit much?"
Ruan Fuxi picked up another piece of fragrant sauced beef. "Oh? What’s wrong with that?"
Shi Lili replied, "Right now, everyone’s food resources are limited. Since you accepted Lu Xun’s noodles, it wouldn’t be right to take the boxed meal from Yanzhou too. How can you take both? Yanzhou might get upset. Besides, if you can’t finish it all, wouldn’t that be wasteful?"
Before Ruan Fuxi could say anything, Sheng Yanzhou furrowed his brows and interrupted her.
"Can you be quiet? I'm very happy, and please call me Mr. Sheng."
How could he not be happy when he was feeding his wife? He was quite pleased indeed.
Watching Xiao Xi eat the lunch box he had prepared for her bite by bite, he felt the joy and satisfaction of feeding someone he cared about.
But what if Xiao Xi got angry and refused to eat his food, as Shi Lili suggested?
This person was really annoying.
Sheng Yanzhou kept the principles of gentlemanly conduct in mind.
At that moment, Ruan Fuxi finished her last bite of rice and instant noodles, wiped her mouth, and said slowly, "What does it matter to you whether I can finish it or not? This little bit is nothing; I could eat a few more bowls easily."
Shi Lili's expression stiffened for a moment at the exchange between Sheng Yanzhou and Ruan Fuxi before she regained her composure.
"I was just being kind. Why do you have to speak so harshly, Xiao Xi?"
Sheng Yanzhou was annoying, but Ruan Fuxi was even more bothersome.
Neither of them showed her any respect!
However, with her low posture, netizens would probably criticize Ruan Fuxi for being arrogant.
Meanwhile, in the live broadcast room:
"Hey, why does Shi Lili look so condescending? It's overwhelming."
"Neither Lu Xun nor Sheng Yanzhou said anything, yet she jumps in to lecture."
"If I'm not mistaken, Shi Lili likes Sheng Yanzhou while Sheng Yanzhou likes Ruan Fuxi, right?"
Han Fei'er sat nearby munching on a dry piece of bread, feeling speechless.
What did it matter to her what Ruan Fuxi ate?
There were reasons she didn't like Shi Lili.
Sighing, she thought it might be better to focus on how to navigate her upcoming variety show instead; she couldn't keep eating this kind of thing forever.
As for the other three guests, they silently munched on the dry bread provided by the production team. Although Yue Hongjie and Lin Yunqing had brought their own supplies, they chose not to take them out. It was only the first day of the show, and they needed to conserve their resources. After all, with a director known for his unpredictable antics, no one knew what would happen next.
