A Favor Done, A Husband Won-Chapter 556 - 550: Sweet Extra—Couple’s Variety Show 35

——After all, Jing Jihan still has fifteen yuan in his pocket! He’s definitely the wealthiest among all the guests!

With such a huge sum in hand, if he doesn’t guard his pocket carefully, he might be extorted by Luo Fang, Hao Jinlin, and Lin Xu.

When Jing Jihan returned from his shower, he carried the fresh and pleasant scent of gardenia body wash from the guesthouse. The aroma was stronger than the subtle cold scent he usually had at home, but in the cool tent, it naturally made one want to get closer.

Since it was already dark, Shi Su had pulled down the ventilation side of the tent facing the camera. The camera couldn’t capture this side now, and she took advantage of the moment when the man bent down and entered the tent, throwing herself at him.

Jing Jihan was taken by surprise as she pounced and hugged him. He steadied himself to catch her and prevent her from falling, then looked down at the little woman with sparkling eyes full of laughter: "Weren’t you just saying you were very tired? Why aren’t you sleeping?"

"Waiting for you," Shi Su said as she reached into the clothes he’d changed out of. Sure enough, she found a crumpled ten-yuan bill and a crumpled five-yuan bill, then whispered against his jawline, "Ten yuan for an hour—you’re really daring to work for others under the table, Mr. Jing?" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Recognizing the teasing in her words, Jing Jihan looked down at her, smiled, and guessed she had probably seen the playback footage, so he didn’t elaborate. He just glanced at the mosquito repellent lit in the tent and the box of ice: "Still hot?"

"Not hot, it’s cool and comfortable," Shi Su murmured softly as she snuggled against his chest. "Actually, when I first considered swapping rooms with Uncle Guochun and them, I mentally prepared for possibly not sleeping well tonight. In such a program, there are bound to be lots of running around on regular days, and not sleeping well for several consecutive days is common. Although the director promised this isn’t some game challenge program, just pure budget travel, without many high-risk projects, so you don’t have to take extra care of me. Being hot for a night is fine, but you actually went to watch the supermarket, that’s just too much trouble."

"Not a bother," Jing Jihan said with a smile, touched her hair, already dried by the natural wind, and directly sat down in front of her, following her posture as she leaned into his arms, while pressing the two layers of moisture-proof mats on the ground: "The ground is flat, no edges or corners. Two layers should ensure comfortable rest. Sleep now, isn’t there an early start tomorrow?"

Mr. He mentioned that starting tomorrow, the program team will no longer provide ingredients, and each family will have a limited daily budget of fifty yuan, which includes travel expenses to the next stop. How to save and spend this budget is left to the guests to plan themselves.

Moreover, the nearby supermarket’s ingredients are both stale and expensive. The morning market ingredients are fresh and affordable, but the morning market starts at four or five a.m. and ends by six or seven a.m., so everyone needs to get up early to arrange all their daily needs, while the camera only needs to follow each family and capture this process.

It is indeed a travel show. Apart from eating, sleeping, and traveling, you need to think of ways to earn small amounts of money to enrich each person’s funds. Only when the funds are seriously insufficient will the director arrange some tasks and games to create program effects, which will then provide extra funding rewards. The entire program is indeed very free, not so cumbersome, without too many restrictions, but also the money given is really too little, forcing everyone to be budget-savvy.
