A person in Wuha: The whole internet is urging me to get back together with my ex!

Chapter 69 The Unlucky Trendy Guy's Dao Heart Shattered, My Wife Gains His Soul in One Shot!

Apart from the carefree Chen He and the starving Lu Han, everyone else ate the meal with great resentment.

A perfectly good Golden H ham and old duck stew was somehow transformed into a final, savored gift before execution.

Chen Ye put down his chopsticks.

He grabbed a tissue and wiped his mouth.

The duck meat was indeed delicious, but paired with Wang Zhengyu's old face, it had a rather strange taste.

"Alright." Seeing that everyone had put down their chopsticks, Wang Zhengyu finally stepped out from the corner.

He pulled out a large sheet of bright red paper and waved it in his hand.

Chen Ye squinted and took a closer look; it was a scratch-off lottery ticket.

"Is everyone full?" Wang Zhengyu asked, his hands behind his back, his face crinkling with smiles. "Then let's start the games."

"Can you see clearly what I have in my hand?"

"I saw it." Chen Ye leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs.

"A scratch-off lottery ticket, face value twenty." Chen Ye curled his lip. "Old Wang, did you embezzle all the crew's funds and plan to have the seven of us play scratch-off lottery tickets to cover your deficit?"

A burst of laughter erupted in the pavilion.

Chen He laughed so hard he slapped his thigh: "That was a killer move by Ye Zi!"

Wang Zhengyu's old face twitched twice.

That kid has a really sharp tongue.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Wang Zhengyu cleared his throat, forcibly bringing the conversation back on track. "Listen to the rules."

"There are seven of you. Send two of you up here," Wang Zhengyu tapped the table. "Each of you pick a scratch-off lottery ticket."

"Once you win the prize by scratching it, you can get on the Coaster and comfortably head to the next stop."

The pavilion was silent for a second.

Chen Ye raised an eyebrow.

The rules sound simple, but given Lao Wang's nature, there's definitely a huge trap waiting behind him.

"Old Wang," Chen Ye stared into his eyes, "what if you don't win?"

"Yeah, yeah!" Deng Chao immediately tensed up. "What if we don't get it?"

Upon hearing the question, Wang Zhengyu revealed a lewd smile.

"If you don't succeed," Wang Zhengyu said in a tone so light it made you want to punch him, "then I'm sorry, you'll have to turn back to Y-Wu and start all over again."

Even the chewing sounds in the pavilion stopped.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at Wang Zhengyu.

"You son of a bitch, Wang Zhengyu!" Chen He was the first to explode. "We drove for an hour to Jin H, and now you're telling us we didn't win and have to go back to Y Wu?!"

"Are you out of your mind?!" Deng Chao exclaimed, waving his hands wildly in the air.

Lu Han had just swallowed half a duck leg when he fell into a clear, blank state again.

This show is so exhausting!

Chen Ye looked at Wang Zhengyu's smug expression and mentally ranted.

This is equivalent to the save point being destroyed, forcing you to start over in the starting area.

"Then we're not playing anymore." Chen Ye crossed his arms, adopting a "what the hell are you going to do about it?" attitude. "We'll just sit here, what are you going to do about it?"

"Exactly!" Chen He immediately chimed in, "We're settling down here in Jin H today! We're not going anywhere else!"

Wang Zhengyu remained completely calm.

He even leisurely picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

"It's fine if you don't want to play," Wang Zhengyu smacked his lips. "Then our production team's bus will leave first."

"As for you guys," Wang Zhengyu pointed outside the pavilion, "walking from Jin H to Jing D town isn't impossible. Just consider it a workout. I checked, it's only about 300 kilometers."

Depend on.

Chen Ye couldn't help but curse aloud in his heart.

It's been over 300 kilometers. By the time you get to Jingdezhen, your legs must be completely worn out!

"Old Wang, you're really not a human being," Chen Ye said, pointing at Wang Zhengyu with a smile.

The live stream chat was instantly flooded with comments.

[Hahaha! A 300-kilometer hike! Old Wang's abacus beads just blew my mind!]

[The production team is too cunning! The pandas didn't get any food because Old Wang stole bamboo shoots!]

[What kind of last meal is this?! After eating it, you're immediately exiled 300 li!]

Chen Ye's expression was priceless; it perfectly mirrored my reaction on my first day at work when I discovered my boss was insane.

There's no escaping the game.

"Alright," Chen Ye sighed. "Whether you stick your neck out or not, you're going to get scalped anyway. Who's going to do the scraping?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Nobody dared to go up.

If they miss and everyone ends up being deported to Ukraine, they'll definitely be criticized.

Especially when subjected to the relentless barrage of sharp-tongued remarks from someone like Chen Ye, no one can withstand it.

"I think..." Chen He glanced around furtively, his eyes finally settling on Song Yuqi, "This important task must be entrusted to Yuqi!"

Chen Ye's eyes narrowed.

That fat bastard Chen He is really good at making plans.

He sent Song Yuqi because he knew Chen Ye was a fiercely protective person.

If Song Yuqi misses, Chen Ye definitely won't scold her at all; he might even join in cursing the lottery ticket.

Deng Chao immediately realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes, yes! Yuqi is the most suitable! Girls are lucky!" Deng Chao echoed loudly.

Song Yuqi pointed to her nose, blinked her big eyes, and her face was full of clear innocence.

She turned to look at Chen Ye.

Chen Ye looked at Chen He and Deng Chao's cowardly appearance and sneered inwardly.

You want to use my wife as a shield, huh? Fine.

"Okay, Yuqi counts." Chen Ye made the decision.

Chen He was just about to breathe a sigh of relief.

"But there are two spots available." Chen Ye changed the subject, his gaze immediately fixed on Deng Chao.

"Brother Chao, you look radiant today. The other spot is yours." Chen Ye smiled very gently.

Deng Chao's smile froze instantly.

Why did it have to be me?! I was just agreeing!

"No, no, no, no!" Deng Chao waved his hands frantically, rambling incoherently, "Xiao Ye, I think Yu Qi alone is enough! We have to trust Yu Qi's abilities! I don't need to play, right?!"

"Enough with the nonsense." Chen Ye stood up abruptly.

He grabbed Deng Chao's arm and dragged him to the table with the scratch-off lottery tickets.

"Hurry up, stop dawdling." Chen Ye pressed Deng Chao into a chair. "The hopes of the whole village are pinned on you, Brother Chao."

Chen He stood by, laughing like a 200-pound fat man, relentlessly kicking someone when they're down.

"Brother Chao, it's up to you now!"

Even Tao Zhe, who was standing next to him, chimed in, "Go for it, Chao Ge! I trust your intuition!"

With nowhere to turn for help, Deng Chao could only stare at the bright red scratch-off lottery ticket in front of him, utterly dejected.

Song Yuqi also walked over with a smile and stood in front of the scratch card table.

"Brother Chao, you choose first." Song Yuqi very considerately gave up her right of first choice.

Deng Chao took several deep breaths.

He closed his eyes, waved his hands in the air above the scratch-off lottery ticket, and muttered incantations, looking every bit like a shaman performing a ritual.

"I sensed it!" Deng Chao suddenly opened his eyes, his finger jabbing hard at one of the scratch-off lottery tickets. "This is it! It's calling to me!"

Chen Ye rolled his eyes.

These old fogies are still spouting mystical theories.

Deng Chao took a coin from Wang Zhengyu.

His hands trembled uncontrollably as he scraped away the first layer of the covering film with extreme slowness.

No numbers.

Scrape a little more, still no numbers.

Three seconds later.

Deng Chao scraped the entire scratch card clean.

None of them were found to be positive.

The pavilion was completely silent.

Deng Chao stared wide-eyed at the scratch-off lottery ticket.

Chen Ye's cold laughter rang out right on time.

"Brother Chao," Chen Ye's voice was devoid of warmth, "is this the call you sensed? It's calling you back to Y-Wu, isn't it?"

"Yes, I actually believed your nonsense." Chen Ye launched into a barrage of questions, "With this kind of luck, did you wash your hands with a toilet brush last night? You're not just unlucky, you're practically a black hole come to life!"

Chen He seized the opportunity and immediately followed up with his own attacks.

"Brother Chao! You've disappointed me so much!" Chen He pointed at Deng Chao with heartache. "Three hundred kilometers! Do you really want us to beg for food in Jing'an Town?!"

"I was thinking of going back to your hometown in Chang'an to eat mixed rice noodles, and now you want me to go back to Wuxi to eat small commodities!"

After being relentlessly attacked by the two sharp-tongued brothers, Chen Ye and Chen He, Deng Chao's face turned bright red, and he stomped his feet in grievance.

"Well... then it won't work either! The probability is already very low!" Deng Chao weakly retorted.

At this moment, it was Tao Zhe, this "demon pill," who displayed astonishing composure.

Tao Zhe walked over and patted Deng Chao on the shoulder.

"It's okay, Chao Ge, it's just a game," Tao Zhe comforted gently. "You've already done your best. You can't predict luck. Besides, there's still another one."

Deng Chao was moved to tears and hugged Tao Zhe tightly: "Brother Zhe! You're my real brother!"

Chen Ye felt disgusted watching the two of them being so affectionate, and kept rubbing his arms.

Now all the pressure is on Song Yuqi.

If Song Yuqi doesn't win either, everyone will just go back to Y-Wu.

Song Yuqi nervously clutched the coin.

She looked at the table full of scratch cards and thought they all looked exactly the same.

"Just pick one." Chen Ye walked to Song Yuqi's side.

His voice dropped eight decibels instantly.

He seamlessly switched from a berserk damage dealer to a gentle, doting husband.

"It's okay, take it easy." Chen Ye reached out and tucked a stray hair behind Song Yuqi's ear, his tone extremely gentle. "Even if we don't win, it's fine. At worst, we can just buy two plane tickets and fly home to lie down. We won't film this stupid show anymore."

Chen He stared wide-eyed at him.

Deng Chao stared at Chen Ye with his mouth agape, his fingertips trembling wildly.

"Chen Ye! Have some decency!" Deng Chao shouted in despair, "That's not what you said when you were cursing me! You have two faces!"

The live stream chat exploded with comments.

Holy crap! Even Sichuan opera face-changing isn't as fast as Chen Ye!

[You hypocrite! Chen Ye, you're the ultimate hypocrite!]

[Deng Chao: If I miss the scratch card, it's because I'm incredibly unlucky; if my wife misses, it's the show's fault?]

This display of affection is giving me diabetes; I'm kicking over this bowl of royal dog food!

[Old Wang: If you dare not record this, believe me, I'll lie down on the ground right now and stage an accident to extort money!]

Song Yuqi felt a sweet warmth in her heart as Chen Ye protected her.

With Chen Ye's reassuring words, she instantly calmed down.

She held the coin and scanned it back and forth across a sheet of scratch-off lottery tickets.

Suddenly, her gaze settled on a photo in the corner.

There were no mystical practices, and there was no hesitation.

Song Yuqi reached out and tore off the lottery ticket.

"That's it!"

She laid the lottery ticket flat on the table, with the edge of the coin touching the coating.

Chen Ye stood next to her, his hands braced against the edge of the table.

He doesn't care whether he wins or not; it's all just for the sake of the show.

Deng Chao and Chen He were so nervous that they didn't dare to breathe.

Lu Han closed her eyes and clasped her hands together in prayer.

"Sizzle."

Song Yuqi scraped hard.

The gray coating was scraped off as the coin was moved, revealing the hidden pattern underneath.

Song Yuqi lowered her head and carefully looked at the numbers and rules on it.

Then, she carefully checked the winning pattern next to her.

I stared at it for a full five seconds.

Just when everyone thought he had failed again, and Chen He was ready to roar to the sky.

Song Yuqi suddenly sat up straight.

The coin in her hand fell onto the table with a clatter.

Then, she jumped up and down happily on the spot.

"Aaaaaaah!" Song Yuqi hugged Chen Ye tightly, as excited as a child who had just gotten a perfect score on a test. "Chen Ye, I did it!!!"
