Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

Yang Chu was almost in tears when she heard Fang Wenxi's words. Jiang Lai pushed Yang Chu away impatiently and said, "Why can't we talk about it! Didn't you want to know about the painting and the poem? I'll tell you right now!"

After saying that, she gritted her teeth and looked at Yang Chu, saying, "Didn't you say Wenxi was hungry? Hurry up and cook! I'm going to invite you!"

Upon hearing Jiang Lai's words, Yang Chu, like a traitor, bowed and scraped, saying, "I'll go cook right now! I'll make you a good meal today, to nourish you properly."

After saying this, Yang Chu felt as if he had been granted a pardon and hurriedly ran into the kitchen.

Jiang Lai was both annoyed and amused by Yang Chu's expression. She knew that she had indeed made things difficult for Yang Chu today, but it was all on Jiang Lai's part.

Jiang Lai felt a sense of urgency because of Hu Yifei's matter, and wanted to make things a little difficult for Yang Chu.

But the more Jiang Lai talked, the more uncomfortable she felt. It seemed that Yang Chu really hadn't had any special first time with her, especially when Wang Manni mentioned the painting, Jiang Lai felt a little wronged.

Andy and Zubere also saw that Jiang Lai seemed to genuinely feel wronged.

Zuberai quickly sat down next to Jiang Lai, grabbed her arm, and said, "You're not really angry with Brother Yang, are you?"

Jiang Lai pouted and shook her head, saying, "I'm not angry, but I feel a little wronged. We've been through a lot to be together, so I know how he feels about me. But I don't know why, I just feel wronged."

Wang Manni understood Jiang Lai's feelings very well. After all, Wang Manni knew better than anyone the details of Yang Chu and Jiang Lai's relationship. Although their experiences together were very romantic, they weren't exactly pleasant, and that was what made Jiang Lai feel wronged.

Wang Manni sighed and comforted Jiang Lai, saying, "Don't feel wronged! Although Gan Jing was Yang Chu's first woman, she's already gone. Why are you still holding a grudge against her? Besides... those special first times Yang Chu gave Gan Jing weren't necessarily all pleasant."

Jiang Lai glanced at Wang Manni with her mouth closed, said nothing, and kept her head down with a pitiful expression.

Andy smiled and shook his head, saying, "Alright! That's enough acting. Trust Yang Chu! It won't be long before he gives you a special first time."

Jiang Lai smiled bitterly, with a hint of arrogance, and said, "Will he really be able to prepare?"

"What did you say?"

Jiang Lai said with a confident smile, "I also think he will prepare it for me!"

Seeing Jiang Lai's expression, Zuberai exclaimed in surprise, "You were acting just now!"

Jiang Lai took a deep breath, sighed, and said, "It's half acting and half real, isn't it? It was just an act, but as I was acting, I started to feel wronged."

Zubeilai and Fang Wenxi nodded in understanding. Indeed, some things were originally intended to be acted out and then forgotten, but as they were discussed, the original purpose was changed.

Fang Wenxi nodded understandingly and looked at Jiang Lai and the others, saying, "Now can you tell me what the poem and painting are? I felt like an idiot just now, I couldn't understand what you were saying at all."

Zuberai looked at Jiang Lai and the others with curiosity and said, "I also want to know what poetry and painting are all about? I only know the general idea, but I really don't know the specifics."

Wang Manni chuckled and then looked at Jiang Lai, saying, "You should tell us! You know everything about Gan Jing's matter from beginning to end."

Jiang Lai smiled and nodded, then began to talk about Yang Chu and Gan Jing.

After entering the kitchen, Yang Chu started peeling scallions and garlic, preparing to cook dinner for Jiang Lai and the others as an apology.

Yang Chu knew that today's events had made Jiang Lai a little insecure, so he let her throw a little tantrum and act a little capricious.

While cooking, Yang Chu also wanted to find out about the fact that fifty people had signed in today.

"System! System, come out here! What's going on?! Why are there so many check-in points all of a sudden? Have you found out what happened?"

"Ding, don't worry, the little fairy has already told me that Hu Yifei may be the chosen one of this world, which is why she got fifty sign-in points. It probably won't happen again."

"The chosen one? How is that possible? Aren't chosen ones always men?"

"Ding! Who says the chosen one has to be a man?"

"Um... Isn't that how it's always written in the novels I used to read? Whether it's the chosen one of heaven or the chosen one of destiny, they're all male."

"Ding, this system doesn't know. The fact that Hu Yifei is the chosen one was told to me by the little fairy. If you want to know more, I can pass on the message for you."

Yang Chu thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Let's forget it. What's the point of knowing so much? If Hu Yifei follows me around every day, will my attendance points increase a bit?"

"Ding, no! It just means you'll have a few more tasks."

Yang Chu nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Five hundred sign-in points for one task was quite good.

However, he was also secretly wondering how Hu Yifei could become the chosen one.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Yang Chu realized that Hu Yifei had appeared in all five seasons of Love Apartment, totaling more than a hundred episodes, making her arguably the character with the most screen time.

If the "Child of Destiny" is determined by the amount of screen time a character appears on screen, then it's not surprising that someone becomes the "Child of Destiny."

What Yang Chu couldn't understand was that Lu Ziqiao seemed to have appeared in all five seasons of Love Apartment, so why wasn't he considered a "lucky character"? Moreover, he seemed to be connected to another TV series. Could it be that all of this combined was less than Hu Yifei? This puzzled Yang Chu greatly.

Yang Chu spent nearly three hours preparing this meal, mainly because he had acquired a medicinal cuisine skill from Guan Gu Shenqi that day, and he was preparing to cook a medicinal dish.

But when Yang Chu had almost finished cooking, he discovered that the medicinal dish needed to be simmered over low heat for at least three hours.

This made Yang Chu a little embarrassed. Although Fang Wenxi was having a good time with Jiang Lai and the others, she would occasionally look at the kitchen with a resentful gaze, which made Yang Chu feel a bit awkward as well.

After Yang Chu brought the food to the table, he called Jiang Lai and the others over to eat together.

Jiang Lai rolled her eyes at Yang Chu and said, "You took a long time to cook this meal! It's almost 1 a.m., this is practically midnight snack!"

Yang Chu awkwardly touched his nose and said, "I just forgot the time to make the medicinal cuisine! I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
