Big socks! Do you even understand how you kiss a villain?

In front of a rural bungalow.

Standing at 1.8 meters tall, Director Zhu passionately delivered a speech while holding a small bee: "Dear guests, welcome to our variety show live recording! From today onwards, we are a loving family. Are you all ready?!"

"Hmm~"

"Oh."

The applause was sparse, and the guests, looking at the chicken droppings on the ground and smelling the overpowering odor of cow dung not far away, couldn't muster any enthusiasm.

On a small hill not far away, several children peeked out, curiously observing the group of strangers.

The photographer's lens followed, and Director Zhu revealed a wicked smile, turning up the volume: "Now, I will introduce our guests to the viewers in the live broadcast room."

First up is Xia Meng, an obscure, 18th-tier actress from the Renaissance TV series!

Even in sportswear, Xia Meng's beauty was undeniable. She stepped forward reluctantly and bowed slightly to the camera: "Hello everyone, my name is Xia Meng. Please take good care of me."

[What kind of variety show is this? There's not a single famous person on it, and I've never even heard of this woman. I'm outta here!]

I'm speechless. So what if she's a nobody? Her looks are just amazing!

She's so beautiful, can't she be my wife?

[I'm here to stake out the Yu family's daughter; I heard she's quick to hand out red envelopes at the drop of a hat.]

Yu Huan had several large mosquito bites on her hands and couldn't wait to leave. She couldn't take it anymore and said, "Director, can we change it to a self-introduction? I need to go to the bathroom, I can't hold it in any longer."

Director Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, then introduce yourself."

Yu Huan immediately turned to face the camera and said, "Hello everyone, I am Yu Huan."

The introduction was extremely brief, so perfunctory that they didn't even bother to show a smile.

[Waaah, I only thought she was rich, I didn't know she was so beautiful.]

[Wasting time looking at her sour face? Can't you even stand up and be a fan?!]

[They're just people who paid their way in; they're all just talk and have two eyes, what's so interesting about them?]

[Upstairs, this show isn't even going to be popular, and it's the director's first time filming something like this. They're willing to spend money, so why are you interfering? Besides, the main purpose of this variety show is to help farmers for free. If you're so arrogant, why don't you do something to contribute?]

......

Yu Huan was unaware that the comments section had already erupted into a heated argument. After completing her self-introduction, she took a step back, adopting a "keep away" demeanor.

With her taking the lead, the rest of the people only gave brief self-introductions.

There are four people in total: Yu Huan, Gu Yang, comedian Zhao Di, and Xia Meng from earlier.

"Now, please come and collect your task cards. We will send two people to greet the last two guests, and the remaining two will stay to cook dinner and clean the chicken coop."

The guests received their task cards one by one. Gu Yang and Xia Meng went to pick up the guests, Zhao Di cleaned up the chicken coop, and Yu Huan cooked.

"I can't cook," Yu Huan said, raising her hand first, while her gaze fell on Gu Yang. How come he's so lucky?

Gu Yang was about to switch with her when Xia Meng spoke up first: "How about we switch? I like cooking, and you and Teacher Gu can go pick them up together?"

Picking someone up should be easier, but she spent several hours on the bus and vomited profusely as soon as she got off. She's extremely hungry now.

Moreover, Yu Huan looked like someone who never lifted a finger to cook, so Xia Meng felt it was safer for her to cook so that they could have dinner smoothly tonight.

"Alright, then I'll give you a special privilege today: Teacher Gu and Teacher Yu will go pick them up together."

So the photographers split into three groups: Zhao Di took a bamboo broom and went into the chicken coop; Xia Meng carried a basket and went to the garden to pick vegetables; while Gu Yang and Yu Huan stared in silence at the rickety tractor in front of them.

"Hello, teachers. I'm the driver the production team found for you. You can get in now." A villager sat in the driver's seat, turned around, and flashed them a bright white smile.

The space in front was relatively small, so Yu Huan naturally couldn't squeeze in with the villagers. Gu Yang could try to squeeze in, but Yu Huan unusually softened her stance and looked at him, so Gu Yang pulled the brake and stepped into the car.

The moment he got into the car, his brow furrowed slightly, and he sensed something was wrong.

He looked down and saw scattered animal droppings on the carriage, which also emitted a faint stench.

"Give me a hand!" Yu Huan reached out to Gu Yang, somewhat eager to try.

"Be prepared." Gu Yang said, swallowing hard, and pulled the person into the car in one go.

Three seconds later, a scream rang out. Gu Yang, who had anticipated this, covered his ears and looked at her in a slightly amused expression.

"Stop the car, I want to go home!" Yu Huan once again threw herself at Gu Yang's side without any regard for her image, having long forgotten her bold words before appearing on the show.

The driver stepped on the gas and laughed heartily, "Don't worry, Teacher Yu, I'm a great driver, I'll get you there right away!"

The village roads weren't even paved with cement, and the tractor sped along the bumpy road. Yu Huan and Gu Yang quickly sat down in their two fixed seats inside the truck.

Are you going home?

Gu Yang placed one hand on the railing behind her, looking at her with a smile in his eyes.

Yu Huan snorted softly, noticing his smile and thinking he was mocking her.

"I'm not going back." The wind dispersed the stench, and Yu Huan felt a little better. She thought that since she was already here, she couldn't possibly admit defeat in front of Gu Yang.

"Teachers, hold on tight to the handrails, the road ahead is a bit rough," the driver shouted, and the two quickly gripped the handrails tightly.

"Is this the road?"

Yu Huan stared wide-eyed at the large puddle not far ahead. The puddle was so big and the road was so narrow that there was no way to get through!

We can't just drive straight there!

However, the next second, the splashing "waterfall" confirmed her guess.

The carriage was completely exposed, and mud and water poured over her head. Even when Gu Yang reached out to shield her, it was to no avail.

Yu Huan wiped her face, utterly despairing.

The few scattered comments that were just moments ago suddenly flooded the screen, and many more people joined the live stream.

Wow! What a magnificent waterfall!

[Hahahaha, I can't help but laugh at how miserable my young lady is! My stunningly beautiful wife has been turned into a mud figure, hahaha...]

[Hehe~ Am I the only one drooling over Teacher Gu's hands? Long, slender fingers, neatly trimmed nails, and pink knuckles—they suit him so well...]

[Hey upstairs, put on some pants. Besides, this is my husband.]

[Hey, this isn't a deserted area!]

[Can't you guys tell they're a couple? The young lady probably came on the show for him, right? I heard he's a total newbie in the entertainment industry. Could it be a rich older sister and a cute younger man...?]

Gu Yang saw that she was completely soaked in mud and water except for her face, and even took a piece of waterweed from her hair.

He couldn't help but smile to himself, then quickly turned back before she noticed and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
