Chapter 269 Night Residence Rights
Except for Lu Qingxi and Shen Ji, who were very satisfied with their meals, the other groups of guests faced challenges due to their cooking skills. On the table, some dishes were dull in color and tasted bad, while others tasted weird and were difficult to swallow. These unsatisfactory dishes made the guests feel a little embarrassed when tasting them, and some even put down their chopsticks after just a symbolic taste.
After the meal, the program team announced the arrangements for the next session in a timely manner. They asked each group of guests to take their suitcases to the cabin where they might stay tonight to check it out, and take a lunch break to reserve energy for the afternoon activities. Although all the guests were in different moods, they quickly packed their luggage and followed the program team to the cabin.
When they arrived at the hut, the guests were shocked by the scene in front of them. The room was decorated in a tatami style, simple and plain. However, for them who were used to a luxurious life, such an environment was indeed a bit shabby. The bed was a simple straw mat, and the windows were simply built with wooden strips. The whole room looked both quaint and simple. The guests looked at each other, with expressions of surprise and helplessness on their faces.
At this time, the comments on the TV screen were already exploding. The audience expressed their opinions one after another:
"This place is too shabby! Did the production team go too far?"
"How can my baby live in a place like this? Does the production team want them to survive this disaster?"
“I feel so sad. I hope they can adapt to this environment as soon as possible.”
Zhou Sibei felt a little dissatisfied and murmured a few words, complaining that the arrangement of the program group always seemed to be unsatisfactory. However, she noticed that Lu Qingxi's face was slightly pale and obviously a little tired. So she chose to shut up and didn't want to cause more trouble for Qingxi. Lu Qingxi smiled slightly, thanked her for her understanding, and then slowly lay down, intending to recover his strength through a short rest.
Both of them closed their eyes, trying to relax their bodies and minds by resting their eyes. However, time seemed to have stopped. Half an hour passed, and they were unable to fall asleep. Instead, an indescribable itch came from their arms, causing them to sit up involuntarily.
They looked at each other, both of them showing surprise. A small red dot appeared on both of their arms, like a tiny flame jumping on the skin. Zhou Sibei's already unhappy mood completely exploded after seeing the red dot on Lu Qingxi's hand. She walked to the door and shouted in the direction of the assistant: "Hurry up and call the doctor! The environment here is terrible!" Her voice was sharp and piercing. Even if she deliberately lowered the volume, it still penetrated the tranquility around her.
The assistant came in a hurry after hearing the noise, and was also panicked after seeing the condition of the two. At this time, Zhou Siming also came over after hearing the noise. He walked to Zhou Sibei and checked the red spots on his sister's arm with concern. When he saw those red spots, the anger in his heart burned like a ignited flame. He turned around and wanted to enter Lu Qingxi's room to check the situation, but his hand stopped a second before touching the door handle. He calmed himself down, then turned to look at Zhou Sibei, and asked worriedly: "Where is Qingxi? How is she?"
Zhou Sibei looked at her brother's anxious expression, feeling both angry and amused. She knew that her brother cared about Lu Qingxi as much as she did, but she couldn't help but feel a little wronged. She snorted and replied, "Qingxi's symptoms are the same as mine, and there are also small red spots on her arms. It seems that we are really infected this time. What on earth did the production team do?" There was a hint of helplessness and dissatisfaction in her tone.
Two minutes later, Shen Ji and Yue Muchen rushed to the scene with the program team's accompanying doctor. They each held one of the doctor's hands, as if they were afraid that the doctor would run away. The funny look made everyone present laugh.
When the doctor entered the room, the first thing he saw was Lu Qingxi's fresh and refined beauty. He couldn't help but be deeply amazed, and even his ears turned slightly red. But he quickly adjusted himself, walked to Zhou Sibei and Lu Qingxi professionally, and began to check the small red rashes on their arms.
He carefully observed the shape of the rash, and then asked the two people in detail about their lunch meals. Then, he checked the bed and quilt to try to find the source of the allergy. After a careful examination and questioning, the doctor finally came to a conclusion.
"This is a mild allergic reaction," the doctor explained. "It's probably caused by the material of the quilt. But don't worry, I've prescribed some medicine for you. Once you apply it, it will subside in about two hours."
Zhou Sibei and Lu Qingxi felt a little relieved when they heard this. They took the ointment handed over by the doctor and began to apply it according to the doctor's instructions. The four male guests outside the door kept staring at the crack of the door, paying close attention to the situation inside.
Zhang Minglian stood at the door of his room, watching all this from afar. Although he did not directly participate, his eyes also showed some worry.
After the doctor applied the ointment, he was ready to leave. As soon as he walked out, he saw four pairs of anxious eyes. He immediately told everyone the diagnosis and treatment just now, and told them not to worry. After hearing this, the four men finally breathed a sigh of relief and let the doctor leave.
The afternoon sun was strong and the warm wind was blowing. The originally planned housing allocation competition was about to begin. However, due to the sudden discomfort of the two female guests, Lu Qingxi and Zhou Sibei, the program team quickly made a decision and decided to adjust the content of the competition.
At three o'clock, with a crisp whistle, the competition among the male guests began on time. Director Song stood on the beach, holding a microphone, with a loud and infectious voice: "Dear guests, due to an emergency, we decided to temporarily change the rules of the competition. Today, there are two precious places to go to the Liu Star luxury hotel to enjoy a night of peace and comfort! This is a rare opportunity, male guests, please show your strength, compete well, and fight for this place for yourself and your partner!"
The atmosphere at the scene was instantly ignited, and all the guests' eyes flickered with light. Director Song nodded with satisfaction, paused for a few seconds, then took a beautifully carved bamboo tube from the assistant and gently placed it in front of her. She continued to speak, revealing a bit of mystery in her tone: "The task of drawing lots still has to be handed over to our female guests. Because there will be a one-on-one PK next, there will inevitably be a bye. So, let's see which female guest can use good luck to gain more advantages for her partner!"
After Director Song finished speaking, he slowly walked towards Lu Qingxi and Zhou Sibei standing together with the bamboo tube in his hand. He noticed a hint of hesitation on Lu Qingxi's face, so he said softly, "The two female guests with allergies, please draw first. I hope this good luck can bring you some comfort." At the same time, she pointed at the outermost stick with her right index finger, as if giving Lu Qingxi a subtle hint.
