Chapter 1098 - Bad Luck

Chapter 1098: Bad Luck

When she arrived at the set and saw the other guests, Xia Xibei froze for a moment.
There were nine guests in each episode of this show.
Among these guests, apart from Cheng Yingni, there were two acquaintances of Xia Xibei’s.
One was Nie Zehai, and the other was Shi Shuhang.
These two male friends of hers in the entertainment industry had come over.
When Shi Shuhang saw Xia Xibei, he ran over happily.
“Sister Bei! It’s been a long time!”
They had done some promotion for a while after the drama they filmed, before it had aired.
After that, however, they rarely saw each other.
They’d occasionally interact online to cheer up their fans, but there was not much else. After all, everyone was busy.
Shi Shuhang had been filming other dramas lately and was also making time for variety shows.
Nie Zehai had been popular for a while, but he was interested in transitioning so that he could continue to develop in the industry, so this was a temporary window in his schedule.
Xia Xibei had helped both of them a lot.
If it wasn’t for Xia Xibei, Nie Zehai would be out of the entertainment industry right now because of that incident.
Shi Shuhang was in the same situation. If he hadn’t cut ties with those toxic friends, he might have been in big trouble by now and there would be no turning back.
After all these things, they understood that Xia Xibei was different from others, so there was no way for them to treat her as a junior or a sister, even if they were all a few years older than her.
“Sister Bei.”
Nie Zehai walked over with a smile on his face.
“You’re all here,” Xia Xibei smiled. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
“It was a surprise for you!” Shi Shuhang said with a big grin.
“Are you sure it’s a surprise and not a shock?” Xia Xibei gave him a sidelong glance. “You know how to cook?”
“I can’t…” Shi Shuhang shook his head, but immediately added, “But I’ll work hard! I can also wash dishes!”
In this kind of show, they were required to compete for food.
What made this show different from others was that they had to get ingredients from the wild, as long as the ingredients were not from protected animals.
However, this was difficult to do.
Who had this ability to get ingredients from the wild?
If they had that ability, they’d have gone on wilderness survival shows!
Shi Shuhang patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, I will do well and definitely won’t drag you guys down!”
That’s what he said, but he was left in tears when the first session began.
He looked at the number he was holding and his eyes got really red.
“This… It’s just a momentary lapse, really!”
Nine guests came this time, divided into three groups.
Each voluntarily formed group had two men and one woman. Xia Xibei, Nie Zehai, and Shi Shuhang were in one group.
After all, they were friends. This would give fans who liked them as couples some gossip material.
After the grouping, they began to draw lots in order to enter the village.
If one’s order was too far back, the good ingredients would be taken away by others.
Moreover, the program team was cruel in deciding that the guests who went up first could take all the ingredients away!
In other words, there may be nothing left for the last group.
Shi Shuhang was unlucky enough to draw the last one.
When they went in after the other two groups, they were sadly told that all of the ingredients were gone!
There was nothing left!
Not even a carrot or green onion was left for them!
Shi Shuhang’s vision went dark and he almost passed out.
This was too much bad luck!
