The longed-for village system

Chapter 290 The End
Chen Qing naturally fulfilled the fan's small request, and the female college student did not react excessively. She simply gave Chen Qing a light hug and then let go, which shows her self-control and respect for her personal image.

The interactive games were designed with the production team in mind, and since they were aware of Stephen Chow and Ng Man-tat's physical condition, they didn't set up any intense competitive games. Instead, they opted for games that tested teamwork. The first game was charades, and the team that completed the most games won.

Since they were all seasoned veterans, there was no need to explain the rules of the game. Stephen Chow and Uncle Da were already familiar with the game's format, as it was the game they played most often. So, after explaining the game, the competition officially began.

The questions for Chen Qing and Xiao Hui were very simple, especially for Xiao Hui, who is a loyal fan of Chen Qing. The questions were all about Chen Qing's songs. Except for the first question, which she didn't quite understand, the other questions were practically given away.

The situation was similar for Stephen Chow and Ng Man-tat; the questions for both of them were related to the names of their movies or characters, which was very easy for their fans.

Of course, some were happy while others were worried. Peng Peng, Nazha, Meimei, and Zhang Yixin did not have such a smooth time. They only completed five or six questions within the allotted time, which would normally be considered a pass. However, Chen Qing and the other two had made a good start.

"Teacher He, Teacher Huang, the production team is so biased! What kind of questions did they give Brother Chen?! They were free points!" Peng Peng expressed his disagreement with the result.

The others nodded in silence. Stephen Chow and Uncle Da didn't dare to say anything, but Chen Qing and his group still dared to object. Was this competition just a race where Chen Qing was merely there to make up the numbers?

Even He Jiong and Huang Lei nodded in agreement with the audience's rebuttal. He Jiong said, "I also think the production team was biased this time. The question they gave Xiao Chen was too easy. Xiao Hui is a fan of Xiao Chen. Asking a fan to guess the name of the song her idol sang is no different from giving the answer directly."

“Teacher He is right, so I think it’s a bit inappropriate for Xiao Chen to be in first place.” Teacher Huang glanced at Teacher He and knew what he was thinking. He then gave the result: “Let’s move Xiao Chen’s first place to the next one. The first place will be our Teacher Zhou Xingxing, the second place will be Teacher Wu Mengda, and the third place will be Xiao Chen.”

My best friend is definitely my best friend. He knew what I was thinking at a glance. This is exactly the result he wanted.

Peng Peng and his friends accepted the result with a smile. It wasn't that they didn't want to see Chen Qinghao, but shouldn't gaming buddies act like this? They're all the same age, so why is he the only one who stands out?
Chen Qing objected to the result a few times, but when it had no effect, he accepted it. If it were just him competing alone, he wouldn't have bothered to say anything; he just wanted to have fun. After the group took a group photo, the first lucky fan walked off the stage.

The lucky fans took turns performing, and the show didn't end until 11 p.m. The fans were very satisfied, especially with the final song, "Tomorrow Will Be Better," which sparked a massive sing-along from the audience.

After finishing their performance, Stephen Chow and Ng Man-tat returned backstage. Although they were both a little tired, they were in high spirits. They hadn't felt like this in a long time. After everyone had exchanged formal greetings, they returned to the Mushroom House. Because the hotel was fully booked for the night, and considering their safety, the two of them stayed at the Mushroom House for the night.

The production team must be the happiest about this result. The two are staying at the Mushroom House tonight, so will they leave tomorrow? They'll definitely have to film something. With the live stream and the buzz generated by their appearance together tonight, how could the number of viewers be low tomorrow?
On the way back, everyone was still talking about what happened that night. Stephen Chow praised Chen Qing's performance, saying, "Little Chen, you're amazing! I didn't expect you to be so good at drawing. Don't tell me you learned it by watching TV?"

"It's truly amazing. Not only does it look like the real thing, but it also captures the spirit of the subject. I feel it's no less impressive than those masters." Wu Mengda praised, and even extended an invitation, "Little Chen, could you paint one for me sometime? I'll frame it and keep it as a keepsake. Once you become famous, this painting will be worth a fortune." "Haha! Uncle Da, you'll have to wait a while." Chen Qing responded to Wu Mengda's words with a smile, and then echoed Stephen Chow's words, "Life is the best teacher."

Chen Qing naturally couldn't say that his skills were given to him by the system, and the best reason and excuse was his teacher, 'life'. Anyway, if anyone asked him who he learned from in the future, that would be his answer. Whether others believed him or not was none of his business.

Of course, Teacher He and the others did not doubt Chen Qing's words. They were all filled with pity for Chen Qing. How badly must life have beaten him to learn so many skills, and how much effort must he have put in to master them to such a level?

Others might learn music, chess, calligraphy, and painting for interest or to cultivate their character, but Chen Qing learned these things for survival, so that he could stay alive.

Zhao Xiaogu looked at her lover beside her with teary eyes. She always thought she had suffered enough, working her way up from a rural girl to where she was today. Compared to her husband, she felt so relaxed. She would definitely treat him better in the future, so that he would know the warmth of home and the feeling of being loved by his wife.

Judging from Zhao Xiaogu's reaction, Chen Qing knew that this woman was overthinking things. The previous owner of this body may have suffered a lot, but Chen Qing didn't suffer at all. Apart from the initial period when he was not used to it and his life was financially strained, his life afterward was quite comfortable.

He reached out and gently ruffled the woman's hair, comforting her, "Don't overthink it. I'm doing pretty well, not as miserable as you think."

Teacher He couldn't stand this kind of atmosphere the most. He is a sentimental person, and it was also a bit inappropriate to cry in front of the camera, so he quickly changed the subject, saying, "It will get better and better in the future. But Xiao Chen was too energetic and explosive tonight. Backstage, Yi Xin kept shouting next to me that Xiao Chen's stage performance was too strong."

Upon hearing about her own situation, Zhang Yixin immediately nodded in agreement, "Yes! Brother Chen, your stage presence and stage effects are amazing! You were born for the stage. Could you give me a ticket to your next solo concert?"

"Yixin, shouldn't you buy a ticket to support him? You even asked Xiao Chen to deliver the ticket to you!" Teacher Huang joked with a smile. It seems that Xiao Chen holds a very special place in his heart, since he would ask his apprentice to say such a thing.

"Master, I want to too! But I'm sure I won't be able to get tickets for Brother Chen's solo concert. His fans have been waiting for this day for so long."

Zhang Yixin said she couldn't do it! She said that she and her staff numbered at most a dozen people, and how could a dozen people possibly compete with tens of millions of people for tens of thousands of tickets?
