After arriving in the elevator, Yun Shu and the others were allowed to take off their blindfolds.
After a long period of darkness, when they suddenly opened their eyes, the dim light in the elevator made them feel uncomfortable.
Yun Shu frowned and closed her eyes again. Tears welled up in her eyes that had just been stung by the light, and her eyelashes were wet.
When she got out of the elevator, she temporarily recovered and was able to open her eyes and look around normally.
Outside the elevator is a long corridor, which is not wide but has a high ceiling with long chandeliers hanging from it.
On the left is an iron-gray stone wall, with a recessed ledge every few meters on which are placed some wine bottles, picture frames, and antiques.
On the right is a strange mirror. Their shadows are deformed and elongated in the mirror, returning to normal every few meters, and then deformed again.
The carpet under your feet was so thick that you couldn't hear your footsteps, and you could still smell a certain fragrance coming from somewhere on the tip of your nose.
It is indeed a place they cannot imagine, and the inferiority complex caused by poverty is infinitely magnified.
Yun Shu withdrew her gaze and looked at the person leading the way.
The man stopped in front of a door and knocked respectfully.
Before the people inside opened the door, two people suddenly walked over from the front, discussing a certain name lazily.
"Gu Xingze just had nothing to do, so he had time to keep an eye on us. He just wants to get involved in this matter, even if he wants to compete with Brother Zhou."
"Actually, what will happen if he finds out? Brother Jingmo is not too worried about this, he just finds it troublesome."
"Ning San's calculation is that the only one who can compete with Gu Xingze now is Brother Zhou. Waiting for Yun...hey, Yun Shu?"
The words Gu Xingze were recited twice and hidden in her heart. Yun Shu looked at the two people walking in front of her and asked without changing her expression:
"you know me?"
Then his eyes swept over their faces openly.
One is carefree, the other is quite...beautiful.
She was a little surprised. Before this, she didn't think there was a man in the world who could be described as beautiful.
Qi Zhou nodded in response to her question, then glanced at Wen Jinnian along her line of sight and asked meaningfully, "Why are you staring at him like that?"
It should be said that Lu Mingzhu and Chu Xiaoqin behind were also staring at Wen Jinnian.
However, after he asked this question, both of them hurriedly lowered their heads, leaving Yun Shu to turn her gaze openly to him.
"He's good-looking," Yun Shu praised him sincerely, then asked him, "Do you know me, am I from the show team?"
Qi Zhou raised his eyebrows and said in a strange tone: "No, audience."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to push the door open and let them go first: "Please come in."
Ning Siyun, who had just turned off the surveillance equipment inside, stood up in time and looked at the people at the door who looked like stars and the moon.
Qi Zhou and Wen Jinnian were watching the fun, while Chu Xiaoqin and Lu Mingzhu were a little shy. She was the only one, like a lost sheep, curiously looking at the things in the private room as she walked.
Then he stood still and reached out to pull the two people behind him.
The three of them felt at ease when they were close together.
After Lu Mingzhu got out of the elevator, she looked like a gourd with her mouth cut off. She didn't say a word, which was completely different from her usual muttering.
Yun Shu could feel her nervousness through their clasped hands.
This private room looked more luxurious than the outside, and there were three well-dressed men staring at them. Their eyes were so serious that they made their hands and feet stiff.
It was like three poor ghosts visiting a rich relative's house. They felt uncomfortable all over. When others looked at each other, they felt that they were mocking their poverty with their eyes.
When they walked to the dining table, the man who had been staring at them stretched out his hand and made a gesture.
"Sit down. You guys haven't eaten yet. Hot pot is prepared here. We can discuss the final prize after eating."
The three men had all sat down, and they cautiously sat across from each other.
The round pot in the middle was bubbling, and the spicy and fragrant flavor was escaping. There were small plates on the side, with a wide variety of meat and vegetable dishes.
Someone was helping to serve the dishes. Amidst the smoke, the man who asked them to sit down pointed to one of the plates of bean paste and said:
"Put more of this."
Yun Shu raised her head and glanced at him. The man's face was a little pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
"Mr. Ning?" She tentatively called out the name.
Ning Siyun was stunned for a moment, and then asked with interest: "How do you know that I am Mr. Ning?"
That Mr. Ning?
Yun Shu quickly went through this sentence in her mind.
The first time she heard the word "Mr. Ning" was when she was pretending to sleep in the hospital, so they probably didn't know. The second time she heard it was in the car she just arrived in.
And he knew that she had heard of the title "Mr. Ning"... There were "eyes" on that car too.
It only took a moment to think about this question. She met the man's eyes and replied: "Feeling."
Then he frowned, looked around, and asked, "Didn't I say there were five people who were promoted?"
Ning Siyun had already prepared his words.
"Their maps are closer. They have arrived a long time ago and have already discussed the rewards."
"award……"
"Don't be impatient, let's eat first." Ning Siyun put a slice of smoked ham on the plate in her hand.
Immediately afterwards, Qi Zhou, who was watching the fun, also put a piece of fish on her plate.
Wen Jinnian did not have the habit of picking up food for others and did not participate in their fun.
Yunshu suddenly had two more things in her bowl, so she could only say thank you and eat them first.
Everyone here knows that she has a big appetite and a good appetite.
The two pieces of meat in the bowl had no effect at all. After eating, she imitated Ning Siyun's movements and took off her chopsticks to scoop out the vegetables.
Seeing her start eating, Chu Xiaoqin and Lu Mingzhu felt a little more relaxed inexplicably, and they moved their chopsticks forcefully, one at a time, with very small movements. They ate when they could pick up the food. If they couldn't pick it up after one pick, they took back their chopsticks and didn't move.
The waiter was still serving dishes. Lu Mingzhu moved her chopsticks for the third time and immediately inserted a beef meatball.
Just as she put it in the bowl and took a bite, the waiter suddenly stopped her in a hurry.
"Hey, that beef meatball is not cooked yet, so you can't eat it yet."
Everyone at the table subconsciously looked at her.
Lu Mingzhu's face turned red and soon turned pale again. She lowered her head and said "I'm sorry" indiscriminately.
She was so embarrassed that she almost ran away, but Yun Shu held her hand down.
"What's there to be sorry for? It's just a meatball. Do you want to eat fish? The kind you eat on an island would make you vomit."
Lu Mingzhu: "...Yes, it's okay..."
"Forget it, you don't want to eat it. Just eat cabbage. Don't you want to be a star? I heard that people who become celebrities are very thin. You can start learning now."
Lu Mingzhu was speechless again.
Qi Zhou couldn't help but laugh, and also smoothed things over: "Yes, it's just a meatball, don't worry about it so much. Waiter, help them get vegetables."
They were not hungry, they sat down just to join in the atmosphere.
This little episode passed quickly, and after almost eating, Yun Shu asked to go to the bathroom.
Ning Siyun asked the waiter to take her there, watched her leave, and took out the long-lost cigarette case.
Exiting the private room and bypassing the mirrored corridor, a short passage appeared with green grass and stone paintings on the wall.
The outside of the toilet is decorated like this, it looks dreamy.
When she stepped into the bathroom and saw a man facing the mirror in the wash area, which was as spacious as a luxurious room, a higher level of evaluation popped into her mind -
