Chapter 538: Pretty Explosive

Chi Yu has no memory of last night’s events.

So when Yao Tao vividly described his behavior, he listened like a bystander hearing someone else’s story and even commented, "Was it really that silly?"

A silence fell.

Three seconds later, Chi Yu realized he was insulting himself.

"...Pretend I didn’t say anything." He looked away, his expression somewhat unnatural.

Insulting oneself could still work?!

No one present knew about Chi Yu’s condition, and after hearing Yao Tao’s words, they all assumed that Chi Yu’s behavior last night was sleepwalking.

That’s right, sleepwalking was the only explanation.

Lin Shi was sitting next to Chi Yu, noticing that his complexion was not very good, and could tell that last night’s events had affected his mood.

He’s probably feeling irritated now.

So Lin Shi took the initiative to talk to Chi Yu: "Brother Yu, does this happen occasionally or often? Do you also sleepwalk at home?"

"..." He fell silent.

The key is, even he couldn’t explain his behavior last night.

Lin Shi continued: "Do you usually sleepwalk and run far at home too?"

Chi Yu’s tongue twitched against his molars, and he spat out two words: "...No."

"I think this could be a bit dangerous. Imagine if no one was beside you, sleepwalking in the middle of the night and driving, what if there’s an accident? I’m just worried one day there’ll be news saying a certain male actor had an accident while sleepwalking and driving at night..."

Chi Yu: "..."

He wasn’t really in the mood to deal with Lin Shi’s chatter.

Yet Lin Shi, whether intentionally ignoring his expression or genuinely misunderstanding it, kept chatting endlessly with Chi Yu, as if he were a typewriter babbling nonstop.

Chi Yu couldn’t help it: "Were you a typewriter in your past life?"

Lin Shi’s eyes rolled around, showing agreement with Chi Yu’s words: "Maybe."

"Brother Yu, have you ever really been to Ancient Water Village before?"

Even while chatting, he was fishing for information.

Lin Shi spent half a day asking pointless questions, then started asking more focused ones.

Chi Yu noticed and glanced at him side-eye: "Curious?"

"Not really, just asking casually." Getting his intention seen through, Lin Shi’s expression didn’t change.

His agent had originally advised him to improve relations with Chi Yu, but Chi Yu’s personality was clearly difficult, so compared to more popular and in-demand Sheng Yi, Lin Shi naturally chose to embrace Sister Yi.

"Brother Yu, I have another question. What’s your take on the idea that actors shouldn’t date during their rising career?" Lin Shi, with no topic at hand, threw a challenging question at Chi Yu.

Only this challenge was not difficult for Chi Yu.

Ha.

"Who can control such things as dating? It’s like controlling your lower half. Can you manage?" The mic was on, and it seemed Chi Yu didn’t realize it wasn’t turned off.

The cameraman recording this shot: "..."

Is this broadcast-worthy for free?

Lin Shi blinked in surprise: "Brother Yu, you’re..."

"What?"

"Nothing." Lin Shi shook his head. He suddenly realized Chi Yu might not care much about his future.

Chi Yu kept hitting the awkward ’old actor’ label; he lacked popularity, traffic, and commercial value, and many investors didn’t want to hire him. So, he worked hard to seize all opportunities.

And Chi Yu’s stage was the one he envied.

Could this be the so-called success getting to one’s head??

...

The first task of today’s program recording was to go to the orchard in the back mountain.

The orchard had been large many years ago, and now it’s expanded by over ten acres. Looking down beyond the mountain, it stretched as far as the eye could see.

Sheng Yi, having been inactive for a while, was breathless from climbing the mountain: "No wonder Ancient Water Village got rich quickly. Just by looking at this orchard, it would be unreasonable not to get rich."

Fu Yao stood beside Sheng Yi, admiring the beautiful surroundings and exclaimed: "Was this place this beautiful back then?"

"Yeah." Sheng Yi nodded: "Back then, the mountains were greener, and there were more weeds than now. After expanding the orchard by more than ten acres, the road was widened, and during the autumn harvest, mangoes and lychees no longer needed to be carried down one basket at a time by villagers; cars could drive up and haul them down by the truckload, making it much easier."

Fu Yao was very interested: "So the road up the mountain could only accommodate one person at a time, and everyone walked one behind the other?"

"The road back then was just that narrow." Sheng Yi gestured to Fu Yao.

Under the camera lens, the two chatted about the past.

Fu Yao was curious.

Sheng Yi explained.

Another harmonious and beautiful scene.
