CH 21.2
After hearing this, Jiang Shanqi fell silent. She realized that Su Chengyang was different from what she had imagined and heard.
After a while, she suddenly blurted out, “Then let me go with you to take a bath with Han Songxue in the future.”
Su Chengyang hesitated and turned his head, saying, “That might be a bit difficult.”
Jiang Shanqi was taken aback by Su Chengyang’s response and asked, “W-why?”
Su Chengyang said, “Songxue has a straightforward personality and often speaks without thinking. Moreover, she doesn’t seem to like you very much, so if you come with me, she may not give you face.”
Jiang Shanqi’s face darkened and she walked forward silently with her luggage, ignoring Su Chengyang behind her.
At that moment, Su Chengyang felt that he may have been influenced by Han Songxue’s attitude.
Jiang Shanqi was obviously someone with a strong sense of self-esteem, unlike Han Songxue. Su Chengyang felt she should have been more tactful.
Watching her leave, Su Chengyang sighed but did not speak up.
When they reached a crossroads, Jiang Shanqi continued walking ahead alone.
Su Chengyang stopped and hesitated for a moment before calling out to her, “You’re going the wrong way.”
Jiang Shanqi froze, but did not say anything, dragging her luggage and walking to Su Chengyang’s side. She turned her face away and asked in a muffled voice, “Which way?”
Su Chengyang was a bit speechless and felt like he was dealing with a child. She pointed in a direction and said, “This way.”
Jiang Shanqi didn’t even look at her and walked straight ahead with her luggage. After taking two steps, she suddenly turned back, glanced at Su Chengyang, and then retreated to his side, saying, “You go first.”
Su Chengyang: “…”
Su Chengyang looked at her silently and then walked past her without saying anything.
Jiang Shanqi followed her calmly, not knowing what she was thinking along the way.
Before long, the group arrived at the place where Room 8 and Room 9 were located.
In front of them was a small courtyard that looked abandoned for a long time. Some vines grew haphazardly on the courtyard wall, but the ground was relatively clean, probably cleaned by the staff in advance.
Su Chengyang had no requirements for accommodation. She could lie down and dream anywhere.
But Jiang Shanqi obviously didn’t think so. When she saw the empty and slightly moldy courtyard, her face turned pale and she stood at the door, pulling her suitcase and not taking a step forward.
Su Chengyang entered the courtyard first, looked around, took a stroll around the courtyard, and then returned to Jiang Shanqi, saying, “Room 8 and Room 9 are both inside. Let’s go in.”
Jiang Shanqi’s hand holding the luggage trembled involuntarily. There was a moment when she really wanted to turn around and leave directly. Even if she had to pay a penalty, she didn’t want to suffer this kind of hardship.
But when she saw Su Chengyang’s calm appearance, she felt like she would lose if she backed down at this time.
Jiang Shanqi took a deep breath, then held her breath and walked into the messy courtyard.
The next moment, she saw that the two rooms facing each other across the yard had no doors at all, only two black cloths hung over the entrance. She couldn’t control her emotions anymore and turned her head to look at the group of staff behind her. She gritted her teeth and said, “Is this where people live?”
Meanwhile, Su Chengyang had already walked into one of the rooms.
The staff didn’t say anything, so they just silently looked in Su Chengyang’s direction.
Jiang Shanqi understood their meaning. Her breathing was trembling. Only a crazy person or someone who had lost their mind would choose to spend money to participate in this ghostly variety show.
Yes, she had paid to get in!
With a reckless attitude, she said without any hesitation, “I spent so much money to participate in this broken program. You let me stay in this kind of place? Can I quit? Don’t even bother refunding my money, at least find me a hotel, okay?”
The staff looked innocent and pretended not to understand what she said.
Jiang Shanqi glared at them fiercely, then turned her head and gave Su Chengyang a stare, before walking into another room.
“Cough, cough, cough!”
As soon as she opened the door, dust hit her face.
Su Chengyang stood in the room, looked around, and regretted it for a moment.
Although she didn’t have any special requirements for accommodation, facing a room with empty walls and even spider webs on the bed, even someone as calm as her felt a little uneasy. She thought that although the room might not have water or electricity, at least it wouldn’t be too shabby, after all, this was going on TV. However, the room in front of her really looked like a place that hadn’t been inhabited for decades and had long become a gathering place for all kinds of insects.
It’s not even autumn yet, but there are so many mosquitoes at night. Although there is a black cloth covering the doorway, it is not very effective. Plus, there isn’t even a window in the room, and the black cloth is very light-blocking. During the daytime, if the black cloth is down, no light can be seen in the room, let alone at night.
For people like them, no matter what time it is at night in the city, there is always some light outside the window that can blurly outline the room. But in a place like this, forget about the blurry outline, you can’t even see yourself.
Although Su Chengyang is not afraid of the dark, she has a bad habit of needing some light when she sleeps in a strange environment, just enough to see the surrounding objects when she open her eyes. When she lived in the city, she never worried about this, and never closed the curtains completely at night because the light outside was bright enough for her to see her surroundings.
In the corner of the room, the program team has set up several cameras in advance, following Su Chengyang’s footsteps.
Looking at the room with only one bed and no bedding, Su Chengyang fell silent for a long time.
“Tsk… this is not a place for humans to live, you guys are too ruthless.”
Su Chengyang heard Xiao Lu’s voice outside the door. Although it was an exclamation, it sounded like gloating.
Su Chengyang did regret it, but it was too late to do anything.
She could only sigh and put her luggage in the corner, then bend over to find a broom in the courtyard and asked Xiao Lu for a bottle of mineral water. After wetting the floor, she began to clean up.
She turned around and saw Xiao Lu and several staff members chatting in the yard. Su Chengyang didn’t hesitate to say, “If you’re bored, help clean up the yard. Also, there are no bedding here. Could you please find two sets of bedding?”
Perhaps due to a guilty conscience, after hearing Su Chengyang’s words, the staff members didn’t idle and found something to do in the yard.
Su Chengyang neither likes nor dislikes doing household chores. If she can avoid doing them, she certainly will. However, when there is no choice, she has no complaints.
Fortunately, the room was not large, and cleaning it up was not difficult. After tidying up the room and bed, the staff brought them two bottles of mosquito repellent. Su Chengyang sprayed a little in the corner of the room, and the originally dirty room finally became clean. Su Chengyang couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
“Is it all cleaned up?” Xiao Lu asked, leaning against the door.
Su Chengyang rubbed her hands, washed her face again, and nodded, “Mhmm.”
Xiao Lu muttered, “The program team is really something. They actually arranged for you to stay in a place like this.”
Su Chengyang helplessly said, “Isn’t it for the sake of the program?”
Xiao Lu smirked and pointed to the opposite room, “It’s really effective.”
Su Chengyang had already finished cleaning up her own room. Once the sheets and blankets arrived, she could rest. She followed behind Xiao Lu, curious, and walked towards room number 8.
“Cough…”
Before even getting close, Su Chengyang heard Jiang Shanqi coughing.
She covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve while sweeping the floor with a broom, but the room had a lot of dust, and when she swept, the dust flew all over the room.
Su Chengyang: “…”
She realized that this person had no common sense about life.
“Cough, cough…”
Su Chengyang shook her head helplessly, opened the bottle of mineral water she was holding, drank the remaining half, and walked into her room, sprinkling the water on the floor.
Jiang Shanqi frowned and looked at her, seeming to wonder what she was doing.
Su Chengyang explained, “Sprinkling some water on the floor will prevent dust from flying up when sweeping.”
After speaking, Su Chengyang asked curiously, “Have you never swept the floor in your house before? This is common knowledge for daily life.”
Jiang Shanqi was stunned for a moment, “My family has always had housekeepers to do the cleaning.”
“…”
“You’ve never swept your own room before?”
Jiang Shanqi asked in confusion, “If I know how to sweep the floor myself, why would I spend so much money to hire two maids who specialize in cleaning?”
Su Chengyang fell silent for a moment. It turned out that she was a spoiled rich girl who had never experienced the life of an ordinary person.
Jiang Shanqi shook the broom on the ground a few more times, and then looked at Su Chengyang with a face of surprise, saying, “There’s really no more dust here!”
Su Chengyang gave her a glance but didn’t say anything.
Jiang Shanqi spoke to herself like a child who saw toys for the first time, “I’ll call my mom later, she’ll definitely praise me.”
After standing in the room for a few seconds, Su Chengyang suddenly asked nonsensically, “May I ask how much your housekeeper costs per month?”
Jiang Shanqi’s mood seemed to have improved a bit after Su Chengyang helped her just now. She thought for a moment and said, “Around 20,000 yuan? That was a few years ago, I don’t know if it’s gone up now.”
“Twenty thousand… twenty thousand…
Twenty thousand per month, that’s 666.66 per day…
After a moment, Su Chengyang looked at her very seriously and said, “Can I occasionally go to your house to do part-time cleaning when I’m not working?”
Jiang Shanqi: “?”
Xiao Lu, who was standing at the door, happened to hear this and couldn’t help but hold his forehead, wondering if Su Chengyang had gone crazy about money.
Not long after, the program group sent bedding and other daily necessities. To Su Chengyang’s surprise, they even sent two mattresses, which made her feel relieved. She originally thought she would have to make do with a hard wooden bed for two days.
After arranging the mattresses and bedding, Su Chengyang opened her backpack and took out the colorful lights she bought last night.
Since Han Songxue told her that they were going to a remote place, she was a bit worried that the lighting at night would not be sufficient, so she bought seven or eight battery-powered colored lights from the supermarket for lighting. As it turned out, she had great foresight.
In this small room, even during the day, nothing could be seen once the black cloth at the door was covered.
After changing the bed sheets, Su Chengyang wrapped the colored lights around the wooden bed frame and turned them on. The bright yellow light immediately made the atmosphere in the room warm.
Su Chengyang was very satisfied with her work. She also found two big rocks and tied them under the black cloth to prevent it from being blown up by the wind at night.
After finishing everything, Su Chengyang felt refreshed and planned to go out to check on Jiang Shanqi’s situation.
After a while, she suddenly blurted out, “Then let me go with you to take a bath with Han Songxue in the future.”
Su Chengyang hesitated and turned his head, saying, “That might be a bit difficult.”
Jiang Shanqi was taken aback by Su Chengyang’s response and asked, “W-why?”
