Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Thieves Will Shed Two Tears When They Break In Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Thieves Will Shed Two Tears When They Break In “It wasn’t the director,” Jiang Yan said with a blank expression, “Did you misspeak? Even if it was a slip of the tongue, how could you make such a mistake at a time like this?”

“Exactly,” Wen Jiaojiao chimed in, supporting Jiang Yan for once, “Isn’t Shang Shaojing the last one?”

Director Sun smiled, “It’s true that Shang Shaojing is the last one, but President Shang is only a visiting guest; the final scores of visiting guests don’t count towards the ranking.”

After all, it was only the five regular guests who were set to be transformed at the beginning.

“What?!”

Jiang Yan was stunned.

He hadn’t expected that he’d be the one left in this wretched place in the end!

Wen Jiaojiao was also dumbfounded.

She never imagined that Shang Shaojing would still be going back with them.

Jiang Li walked over and, in a rare gesture, patted Jiang Yan’s shoulder.

“I did my best.”

She had thrown the game as much as she could, but there was nothing she could do about the final outcome.

Jiang Yan was devastated, completely unable to accept the result.

Yet, the production team was even colder than he had thought; the moment the results were announced, they immediately had staff bring out six plane tickets.

“This is for the flight at eight tonight, you’ll arrive by midnight. If we leave now, we’ll make it on time.”

Everyone was shocked.

Shu Yan was confused once again, “Director Sun, are we leaving right now? Isn’t this too sudden?”

He Yun also nodded, “Yeah, at least give us some time to pack our luggage, right?”

Director Sun chuckled and immediately beckoned to several staff members.

“Don’t worry, your luggage has been packed.”

Six staff members placed the suitcases down in unison.

Except the one responsible for Jiang Li’s luggage stumbled a bit.

What on earth was she packing in there to make it so heavy?!

The group was taken aback once more until Director Sun had that stretch Lincoln driven up in front of them, and even then, they had yet to recover from the surprise.

[Wait, what’s happening? I’m so confused, is this really over?]
[??? Has Director Sun been possessed? When did he become so efficient?]
[Since when did this stretch Lincoln come along, and why has the usually stingy Director Sun suddenly become so generous?]
Qi Tianyu, watching the screen, also noticed the ten-seater stretch Lincoln and couldn’t contain himself.

[Why, when I arrived, did I have to ride in a crappy minivan, and leave in a crappy minivan, yet they get to ride in a stretch Lincoln?!]
Viewers: Hahahaha, it’s because you’re unlucky!

By the time a few of them snapped out of it, they were already sitting in the car.

Not only was the interior clean and clutter-free, but even the seat cushions were soft leather, spreading the scent of luxury air freshener everywhere.

Wen Jiaojiao immediately relaxed, closing her eyes and letting out a long sigh of relief.

“Thank goodness, I’ve finally found my rich second-generation vibe again.”

Who knows how she survived the past few days!

Eating coarse grains, doing farm work.

Sleeping on hard plank beds, riding in broken tricycles.

She nearly believed she’d be stuck planting crops in this mountain hole for the rest of her life.

Perhaps feeling that this wasn’t enough, Wen Jiaojiao shifted her position and then slowly and elegantly rolled down the window, looking arrogantly at Jiang Yan still bewildered on the side of the road and lifted her chin.

“How about it, Young Master Jiang? Congratulations on winning a week-long rural experience card, I’m genuinely happy for you.”

Jiang Yan: “……”

Damn it, he better not bump into this woman once he’s back in the Capital!

However, before he could finish his thought, the window was raised, and the stretch Lincoln emitted a puff of exhaust, disappearing down the road in a cloud of smoke.

Jiang Yan: ?

Was he just abandoned like that?

“Young Master Jiang, wait a moment!”

A voice suddenly intruded into his ears, instantly igniting hope in Jiang Yan.

He knew the crew wouldn’t really abandon him!

However, as he turned around, before he could see the person properly, a suitcase was thrust into his hands.

“This was given to me by Director Sun for you. He hopes you can persevere, successfully transform!”

“Good luck, Young Master Jiang. We’re all looking forward to your performance!”

Once the staff member had finished speaking, they swiftly climbed into the van parked nearby and, in the next second, both the person and the vehicle had vanished.

Jiang Yan weighed the suitcase in his hand, which was less than a few pounds, and fell silent again.

Then he laid the suitcase down flat on the ground and opened it.

“Hmph.”

Jiang Yan let out a scornful laugh.

Sure enough, just as he expected, besides a change of clothes, some cheap toiletries, and an old-fashioned cell phone, there was nothing else in the suitcase.

Oh wait, that’s not quite right.

He found a bag of instant noodles in a side compartment.

This Director Sun wasn’t even willing to give him an instant noodle cup!

The audience in the live stream was about to die laughing.

Although most of the crew members had left, to ensure the progression of what followed, Director Sun had still assigned one cameraman to continue filming Jiang Yan.

Confronted with this camera guy, who never said a word to him and was cold as ice, Jiang Yan fell even more silent.

Damn it.

Could his situation get any worse?

[I’m dying of laughter. I just thought Director Sun had finally relented and become generous to the guests, but nope, he’s still the same old, same old, hahaha.]
[Young Master, although you’re having a tough time, you’re bringing joy to everyone [heart].]
[Wait a minute, the crew only gave Young Master Jiang an old phone, and Jiang Li has also left. Does this mean that he now has absolutely no way to access the internet?]
[?? Is this real life? I’m going to complain about Young Master Jiang on Weibo now, and I’ll just delete it after a week.]
In the end, Jiang Yan had no choice but to drag along his basically useless suitcase, after standing around and cursing the show crew for half an hour.

After all, it was getting dark.

After all, he was hungry.

And after all, he really couldn’t use a bag of instant noodles without even a fork for dinner.

Following a familiar road, Jiang Yan returned to the small cabin once more.

But when he pushed on the door several times, he found that the door was actually locked!

This was truly strange.

The residents of Chixia Village were simple and honest, and almost no one locked their doors after nightfall.

At most, they would just keep a dog as a guard.

It was the same at Uncle Zhao’s house.

After all, even the table in his house had peeling paint; a thief would shed tears if they broke in.

“Uncle Zhao, Uncle Zhao, open the door. It’s me, Jiang Yan,” Jiang Yan called out while knocking on the door.

Then he saw the cameraman almost pushing the lens into his face.

Jiang Yan: “…..”

“Look, man, can you not be so dedicated? I’m already miserable enough, and now you want to broadcast my misfortune to the public.”

The cameraman coolly shook his head.

Jiang Yan: “Can you just film the scenery for, like, a minute?”

The cameraman coolly shook his head again.

Jiang Yan: “Not even for a second?”

The cameraman finally spoke up, “The scenery isn’t as good-looking as you are.”

Jiang Yan immediately got goosebumps from the creepiness.

“Fine, man. I won’t say anything about you anymore, but please, please don’t say such cheesy things with such a cold expression. I really can’t handle it.”
