The True Young Master's Metaphysical Road to Fame in Showbiz Ch. 40

Passing Xu Xinxin, he walked towards the kitchen with the ingredients in his arms. When he passed Chi Qingzhou, he gave Chi Qingzhou a slightly provocative look, relying on the fact that the camera could not capture him.

Did he really think that just going back to the Chi family meant everything would be smooth sailing?

Naive!

The Chi family didn't take him back out of kindness—they just needed someone to get close to Song Yuzhi and secure the Song family's support.

This person could be Chi Qingzhou or any other junior of the Chi family.

Whatever Chi Qingzhou could do, he could do even better.

The rich scent filled the air as Chi Qingzhou tilted his head slightly, the corners of his lips curling up into a faint smile.

His gaze remained gentle and innocent, but a hazy mist seemed to cloud his pupils, giving him an inexplicably bewitching aura.

Lowering his voice, he chuckled softly, his tone light and teasing, "Little brother, you smell so nice."

Chi Qingning: "......?"

Smell, what kind of smell?

Chi Qingning was at a loss for a moment, and subconsciously looked into Chi Qingzhou's pupils, and shuddered uncontrollably.

Before provoking this brother, he had imagined countless reactions from him— but this one was not one of them.

He instinctively felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

Chi Qingzhou curled his eyes and spoke more softly.

"I mean, you smell delicious. The kind of delicious food."

The cold chill climbed up from his spine to the back of his neck, and Chi Qingning's hands holding the ingredients trembled slightly.

In astonishment, his peripheral vision swept to the shadow under Chi Qingzhou's feet.

It was weird, huge, and spread with countless connected sharp edges, which was not like what a human could have.

As if it noticed his gaze, the shadow shook slightly and slowly opened a pair of blood-red eyes.

"You smell so good." It showed a hungry smile.

Chi Qingning felt his blood run cold. A strangled, gasping sound barely escaped his throat—he wanted to scream, but no matter how hard he tried, not a single sound came out.

Panic crashed down on him like a heavy blow. Clutching the ingredients in his arms like a lifeline, he bolted out of the room like a madman.

The main livestream chat instantly exploded with countless [???].

Chi Qingzhou's voice had been too soft for the mic to pick up, and the livestream camera had been perfectly blocked by Chi Qingning. The viewers had no clue what had just happened.

[What's going on??]

[Did that shameless cqz just scare our brother or something?!]

[Why is Chi Qingning so jumpy? I don't see Chi Qingzhou doing anything.]

[Some people seriously have a victim complex. Every day, it's like they think the whole world is out to get their brother. Maybe take a look at your brother's build first—does he even stand a chance against a single punch?]

[It's definitely cqz's fault. Otherwise, why would cqn run when he only passes by him?]

[cqn is acting so weird. Everyone was working together to gather ingredients—it was such a warm and wholesome moment, and he just had to ruin it.]

[Are you kidding me? This little white lotus not only steals from others but also tries to frame people right in front of everyone? Does he think we're all blind??]

[Of course, a legitimate son would find an illegitimate one unbearable. cqz should take a hard look at himself and ask why he even exists in the first place!]

The livestream room was full of speculations, but Chi Qingzhou didn't care.

He just smiled at Chi Qingning's back as he ran away, and said happily, "Little brother, you are so anxious to go to the kitchen—how responsible of him."

Xu Xinxin came over and heard this sentence, and couldn't help but look at Chi Qingzhou in horror.

It was strange. Mr. Chi was so reliable yesterday and the day before yesterday, why did Mr. Chi look so scary now?

She didn't dare to think too much, smiled at Chi Qingzhou, and walked quickly to the kitchen with the ingredients.

This farmhouse focuses on original flavors, and the kitchen uses a very old earth stove.

If Chi Qingzhou hadn't had experience using earth stoves, several guests might not even be able to light a fire.

Everyone worked together and finally prepared a meal according to the recipe, but it was already past noon, and it could be eaten directly as dinner later.

Fortunately, the food tasted good, and the injured hearts of several guests were comforted.

After dinner, everyone played some regular games together to welcome the two guest stars to join, and then the program team notified everyone that they could move freely.

Chi Qingzhou had no intention of stealing the spotlight, so he covered the camera with his ghost sight and asked Xing Shuangzhan. When he learned that Zhu Yantong was still in the Puluo tribe, he found a recliner to lie down and rest.

He was not very good at calculating, but the moment Song Yuzhi appeared today, he vaguely felt that the opportunity he was waiting for was coming.

Perhaps, there was someone around Song Yuzhi who was destined to be with Ah Lai?

While thinking about it, Lu Man avoided the others and walked over.

"Mr. Chi, my sister came to me in a dream last night, and I have conveyed your words to her."

"Huh?" Chi Qingzhou sat up, "Is she ready to be friends with me?"

Lu Man: "This... she didn't say."

Seeing Chi Qingzhou's visibly disappointed, he quickly added, "My sister may think that it's not serious to let me pass on the message. From what she said, it seems that she will come to Yinping Village soon. Then, Mr. Chi may be able to talk to her in person?"

Chi Qingzhou was a little surprised, "She is coming to Yinping Village?"

Lu Man: "Yes."

"Did she tell me the reason?" Chi Qingzhou frowned, "After the evil spirit with Fengdu Order succeeds in revenge, she should be taken back to the underworld directly. Didn't she take revenge?"

Lu Man answered in detail, "My sister had already returned to the underworld, but last night, she found that there was an extra cause and effect on Fengdu Order. She guessed that her enemy might not be just Qi Ming, so she planned to come and see."

An idea flashed by, and Chi Qingzhou quickly asked, "Is her other enemy in Yinping Village?"

Lu Man: "Yes."

That meant Zhu Yantong was not going away.

The real question was—had Zhu Yantong been harming people to create new ghost controllers, or did he have some other motive?
