Xiao Chi Treats Us to a Meal—So There Was a Scheme After All

The next second.

“What the fuck?!”

The curly-haired college student let out a startled cry.

The sturdy bag in his hands suddenly split open from underneath.

The loose KD panels spilled all over the ground.

Everyone immediately scrambled to pick them up.

Zou Kai stared in astonishment at Lin Yu’s retreating back…

What the hell?!

Had this guy’s mouth been blessed?

How could a perfectly good bag just split open because he said it would?

What terrible luck!

…

The afternoon passed by.

Hot and unbearably slow.

Although they were only filming a student project, everyone was exceptionally serious.

Even the friends who had come to help as extras didn’t treat it like a game.

A group of like-minded companions working together to accomplish something.

The process itself was more precious than the final result.

“Cut!”

“That’s a wrap!”

“We’ve finished all of today’s shots. We even worked two scenes faster than expected.”

“Thank you, thank you for all your support!”

Once filming was complete, Chi Qingshui excitedly thanked everyone who had shown up.

“Director, we’re done already? I haven’t had enough yet!”

“You guys were amazing. It was just like working on a professional film set.”

“Elder Chi, call us again next time you need help.”

“…”

Nearly all of the extras who had come today were members of the college student union whom Chi Qingshui had invited.

Almost every student union member who had stayed on campus during the short semester had shown up.

This made it clear just how well-liked Elder Chi was within the student union.

With her responsible personality, it was only natural that she would be someone everyone trusted wherever she went.

…

After wrapping up, Lin Yu and Glasses gathered the heavy props and loaded them onto a cart.

Little Chi, who had been enthusiastically helping nearby, kept stealing glances at Lin Yu.

Lin Yu would have liked to pretend he hadn’t noticed, but Little Chi was being far too obvious.

So Lin Yu dusted off his hands and looked over.

The moment their eyes met, Little Chi seemed to have found a reason to come closer.

She hurried toward him with quick little steps.

“Little Lin, can we… talk for a moment?”

As Chi Qingchi spoke, she glanced at Glasses beside Lin Yu.

How could Glasses fail to understand what that look meant?

It was obvious that he shouldn’t be around for what they were about to discuss.

In that case, what else was there to say?

“You two talk. I’ll go over there and see if any scripts were left behind.”

With that, Glasses patted Lin Yu twice on the back and tactfully left the conversation.

Lin Yu looked suspiciously at Little Chi.

“Why are you suddenly being so formal?”

“Did something happen with the anime club again?”

Usually, whenever Little Chi asked to speak with him privately, it meant she needed his help with something.

This time, however, Little Chi quickly shook her head.

“No, no…”

“Little Lin, do you want to eat barbecue tomorrow?”

Lin Yu: “…”

“Little Chi, you’re not seriously planning to treat me to a meal to thank me, are you?”

“Seriously, there’s no need for that…”

“Are we really that distant?”

Little Chi pursed her lips and nervously twisted the corner of her clothes.

Even though she put on a coy, girlish act, her darting eyes still betrayed what she was really thinking.

Lin Yu: “!!!”

Something was wrong!

This wasn’t as simple as it seemed.

Sure enough, Little Chi continued:

“I do want to thank you!”

“It’s just that tomorrow, a barbecue restaurant in the city is holding a two-person eating contest.”

“If we win…”

“We get our meal for free, plus a thousand yuan in prize money!”

“Wow, a thousand yuan! That’s the biggest prize they’ve offered recently!”

“So, Little Lin…”

Lin Yu’s face darkened.

“……”

He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening.

The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues.

Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
