After Going Viral on a Dating Show, I'm Pampered by All-Chapter 119 - : He Really Hated that Iron Could Not Become Steel, He Was About to Remind When the Collision Happened
Chapter 119: Chapter 119: He Really Hated that Iron Could Not Become Steel, He Was About to Remind When the Collision Happened
The two of them didn’t speak again the rest of the way, as if that confession-like topic had never been mentioned.
Upon arrival at the airport, a group of people entered the waiting hall through the VIP access, ahead of the others.
Meng Wange, though pampered at home, had never flown on an airplane. This was her first time, and she was somewhat excited at the sight of the airplanes outside the window.
“Wange, you look very excited?” The director immediately noticed her shining eyes.

Meng Wange nodded vigorously, finally feeling that the production team had done something nice for her.
“Thanks to the show, I get to fly for the first time. I’ve wanted to before, but the destinations were always reachable by bullet train or regular train.”
“Unsophisticated.” Lu Tianxin’s lips curled in disdain. Getting all proud over a plane ride; she really was an unsophisticated bumpkin!
Meng Wange couldn’t be bothered with her and certainly didn’t want to let her spoil her good mood.
“Seeing Meng Wange like this reminds me of my grandpa, and it really hurts. He kept saying he wanted to fly in a plane at least once in his life, but by the time I got my leave approved and went back, all I got was news of his passing. He never flew on a plane, and that will always be my regret.”
“Stay strong, hugs~”
“Your grandpa will definitely get to fly somewhere else, with someone to take him!”
The online comments suddenly turned sentimental, something unknown to them.
While waiting, a young man, dressed in work clothes and trotting, held a bag respectfully with both hands and approached Sang Qiao.
“Miss Sang Qiao, someone asked me to deliver this breakfast to you.”
“Can you return it for me? Or could you transfer the money to him for me?” Sang Qiao’s gaze inadvertently scanned the surroundings, busy with people coming and going, but no familiar face to be seen.
For the moment, she couldn’t guess who might have sent it.
“I’m sorry, the person paid and then left, and I don’t know him. Could you please take it? Otherwise, I’d have a hard time explaining to my boss.”
The young man’s tone held a hint of humble pleading; the handsome customer promised him a delivery fee just for handing the breakfast over, so naturally, he tried his best.
“Then just throw it away. Who knows if something from a stranger is safe to eat.” Si Chenli’s dark eyes were full of intimidation as he glanced warningly at the employee.
The young man froze under the gaze, but having received a generous delivery fee, he insisted, “Rest assured, our shop is right across from here. We would never do anything to harm anyone, and the customer didn’t touch the breakfast, just bought it and had me bring it over.”
Having said that, and with no other choice, Sang Qiao reluctantly accepted the breakfast, “Okay.”
“Thank you.” With that, the young man ran back to his shop.
Si Chenli watched as she accepted it, his penetrating gaze resting on that breakfast as if to see through it.
“Who is it? It couldn’t be a fan, could it?” Meng Wange was also very curious. After all, the production team would definitely not arrange breakfast for just one person.
“I don’t know.” Sang Qiao had eaten breakfast before coming and wasn’t hungry, “Anyone else who hasn’t had breakfast?”
“Could you give it to me?” Meng Wange asked boldly. Although she had eaten in the morning, she felt her stomach could accommodate a bit more.
“Sure,” Sang Qiao didn’t hesitate and handed it over to her.
“Thank you!” Meng Wange opened it and immediately smelled the tempting scent. Inside was a cup of soy milk and a hamburger-shaped bun with egg and meat in the middle.
She took a bite and the runny yolk oozed out, a sensation of satisfaction exploding in her mouth right away.
Meanwhile, upstairs in the shop, Sang Shen watched this scene without feeling downhearted. Qiaoqiao didn’t know the breakfast was from him and had no aversion to the concept; she must have given it away because she wasn’t hungry enough to eat it herself.
He looked at the time, saw it was about right, and boarded the plane first with his mask on.
As for Meng Wange, after she finished eating, it was almost time for them to board as well. They went through the VIP channel and were surprised to find that the show had booked first-class seats for them.
After all, the production team was usually quite stingy. The first-class cabin must have cost a tidy sum for so many people.

After they got off the plane, the group left the airport and took transport arranged by the production team to a manor with a strong Republic of China vibe in its layout.
If it had been springtime, the trees on both sides would have been covered in lush leaves, but now in winter, the branches were bare, hanging with snow.
“Inside the manor, there are a total of five adjacent small houses. Apart from the beds, all other items must be exchanged using work points, and the same goes for food.”
“Shortly, an announcement will be posted on the board here. It will tell everyone how to earn work points, and the quality of the houses will be decided by drawing lots.”
No sooner had the director finished speaking than he expertly took a box from one of the staff’s hands—the one used especially for drawing lots.
Then, with a gentle and friendly smile on his face, he said, “This time, we’ll decide who gets to draw first by playing a game. Do you see that group of coats over there? The male guests will put them on, stay silent, and not move. Our staff will arrange for you to hide, and the range is just this manor.”
“And the female guests will have their eyes blindfolded with ribbons to find their respective partners. Once found, they must hold his hand and wait until time is up. The first one to find their partner will be first, and finding the wrong person doesn’t count. Everyone else will line up in order.”
The coats on the ground could be described as an upgraded version of trench coats; they came with a hood. Once buttoned up, nothing but a pair of eyes and lower legs would be visible.
Two groups of staff led the male and female guests to the north and south ends of the manor.
The ribbon was black and nearly opaque, plunging their vision into darkness once tied, and its soft fabric completely blocked their sight.
Even if they looked down, they couldn’t see their feet clearly. Once all five female guests were blindfolded, they stood still and waited for the staff to signal that the male guests were hidden.
The five male guests, who were supposed to be hiding, were actually just standing in five different corners.
After all, apart from a few trees, there were no other fixtures inside the manor, so there was no risk of tripping.
“Okay, everyone can start searching. Be careful of what’s ahead, and don’t run into a tree…”
The director hadn’t even finished speaking when Meng Wange, who moved first, “bang,” hit her forehead directly against a tree.
“Ah…” Meng Wange covered her forehead, feeling a bit hopeless. Thankfully she was walking slowly and didn’t hit the tree too hard; otherwise, her forehead would certainly be swollen.
The director: “…” He was truly frustrated! She ran into it just as he was about to warn her!
The other four also set out, walking very slowly because they couldn’t see the path and stretching their hands out in front of them.
Learning from Meng Wange’s experience of bumping into a tree, they dared to move only a tiny step at a time, fingers feeling the emptiness ahead, signaling that there was no one in front.
