Chapter 908 - 907: Strive for Your BBQ

She styled herself for a long time, and Cheng Zhirang coaxed her gently to eat cookies for just as long.

Even the stylist couldn’t help but tease a couple of times.

After finishing the styling, the two of them headed downstairs.

The others were already downstairs, Li Yang pinching his nose while drinking a concoction, and Guan Yu sneakily adding more and more into his cup.

Then chaos ensued with everyone chasing and playfully hitting one another.

Mu Qiu was also drinking, but she drank the concoction like water, finishing it in a few gulps. As a bonus, she even got some water to swirl the remaining bits at the bottom of her cup, and downed it all in one go.

The director saw everyone had gathered and began announcing the next game.

"Before the game, let me mention: tonight’s dinner is BBQ. Of course, the ingredients and preparation are entirely up to yourselves; the production team will not interfere. However, some of our previous guest stars have generously gifted you some drinks, which have already been transported to the beach where you arrived, just waiting for you to sign for them.

So the next game is: you need to draw transportation tools through a lottery and transport everything from the beach to the villa within half an hour. If you exceed the time by a minute, one bottle will be deducted, and if you exceed ten minutes, half will be deducted. Also, during transportation, you can’t directly touch the items with your hands for more than a minute."

Li Yang: "Not using hands? So I use my feet instead? Walk on hands?"

The director held back from rolling his eyes and took out the scratch cards.

Guan Yu was more straightforward, giving Li Yang a side eye: "You can’t think of any method besides direct hand lifting? Though there are transportation tools, you say you’re not a naive sweetie, but you at least embody the naïve part of that phrase."

Li Yang: "......" Jumping right to personal attacks, boohoo.

The director placed the scratch cards in front of them, adding, "Tonight, there will be music, BBQ, and drinks, so everyone can go wild; there’s a song request station where you can ask for songs. We have professional equipment."

Wow, sounds really tempting.

The music-loving Li Yang tossed aside his earlier grievances and eagerly grabbed a card.

"Tonight’s going to be fun, I’ll sing for you all!"

Guan Yu laughed: "Then I’ll dance for you all!"

The others winced: "Maybe not?"

Guan Yu deadpanned: "Then I’ll sing too."

Mu Qiu: "... Maybe, also not?"

"... I want to sing!!!"

The shout was deafening, Mu Qiu quickly nodded: "Okay, okay, you sing, you sing."

After all, it probably won’t be too unbearable to listen to.

Everyone picked up a scratch card and scraped off the surface, revealing the name of the transportation tool inside.

"I got a mini tricycle!!!" Li Yang exclaimed in excitement, "With a tricycle, what can’t be brought up?! Just my one tool might be enough, right?"

There were only six of them, at most just a few drinks or a piece of beer stuff. Wouldn’t it be easy to just load them onto the tricycle and haul them back?

Guan Yu leisurely crossed her legs, peeling the card while saying, "I wouldn’t think it’s that simple; the set time is half an hour, if it were so easy, it would be done in minutes, why mention half an hour specifically? Oh no, what does ’Thank you for your patronage’ mean?!"

She threw the card, the words "Thank you for your patronage" glaringly visible on it.

Shi Yuhuai lazily glanced at it: "It means you’re a disaster magnet who only spends money with no benefits in return."

Then he raised his own card: "See, VIP has it, a special skateboard."

Guan Yu was so thwarted she was practically fuming.

Cheng Zhirang also revealed his card, which was a bit less serious.

"A children’s remote control shovel truck..."

He thought about the children’s toy trucks he had seen: "Maybe a drink can fit inside the truck?"

Guan Yu speechless: "Then you might as well not go, it’d be better to play with your toy truck here for a while. Going down just to bring up one drink, for what?"

Li Yang also said: "Right, my tricycle alone could solve it. But if Brother Cheng wants to go down to have a look, you can, I can take you!"

Guan Yu: "What about me?"

Li Yang puzzled: "What about you?"

"... I want to go down too! I want a ride!"

Li Yang thought for a moment and opened his hand towards her, mimicking her earlier stance: "Fare, ten bucks cash."

Guan Yu: "......"

While they bickered, Mu Qiu continued to scrape at her card, the first letter already revealed the full picture.

"I got a bicycle!"

Beside her, Shu Ran immediately held her hand: "I can ride a bicycle, I can take you."

She paused for a second: "Sister Shu Ran, you got ’Thank you for your patronage’ too? You hit two slots in total, with this luck you could try the lottery."

Just consider it a contribution to the sports lottery fund.

Shu Ran threw the "Thank you for your patronage" card onto the table: "Must be Guan Yu ruining my luck. I wanted to pick the other one."

Guan Yu: "You wanted my card? What a coincidence, both you wanted are ’Thank you for your patronage’, such luck could work for investing in funds, all green lights guaranteed."

Shu Ran: "......"

After enough teasing, they headed outside the villa to meet their "rides."

Li Yang’s mini tricycle was the same three-wheeled automobile Mu Qiu and the others drove before. Next to it was a silver bicycle, then a scooter with a handlebar, and finally a cute little toy shovel truck with a remote control beside it.

Guan Yu asked Li Yang: "Can you drive a tricycle?"

"If you can ride a bike, can’t you drive it? I’ll get the hang of it quickly."

"These are uphill and downhill mountainous paths, a single mistake could send you tumbling to the mountain’s base!"

Li Yang blinked: "Then let me get acquainted... hey hey hey!"

"You’re going down! So unreliable!" Guan Yu yanked him off, climbed up herself, "Let me do it, I don’t want the drinks to arrive up here but with no one else! Brother Cheng, getting on?"

Cheng Zhirang looked at the tricycle’s back compartment, hesitated for half a minute, finally stepped aboard, taking his toy shovel truck along.

Shi Yuhuai hopped on the skateboard, gliding forward: "Let’s go!"

Mu Qiu also mounted the bicycle, patting the back seat: "Hop on, Sister Shu Ran! Trust me, I’ve been riding bicycles for many years, my skills are very proficient!"

Shu Ran hesitantly sat sideways, wrapping her arms around Mu Qiu’s waist.

Then Mu Qiu surged forward, her foot on the pedal, quickly catching up with Shi Yuhuai.

Guan Yu was still revving the three-wheeler, puttering along, catching them at the nearest bend and quickly taking the lead.

Li Yang and Cheng Zhirang stood in the back compartment, gripping the rail, reveling in the breeze created by the slope, arms open, eyes closed enjoying the sunset breath of the wind.

"Awesome!!!" Li Yang shouted from the back.

"Brother Huai, do you feel awesome?!"

Shi Yuhuai maintained his slow skateboard pace, paying him no mind, continuing at his leisure.

Mu Qiu pedaled the bike, not applying the brakes nor pedaling, using the downhill momentum to accelerate, swiftly overtaking Shi Yuhuai, even surpassing Guan Yu’s three-wheeler.

The wind scattered her hair in all directions, without turning back, she joyfully shouted: "Sister Shu Ran! Hold on tight!"

Shu Ran: "Slow down!!!"
