Chapter 449: Chapter 449
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Lang and Mansa also arrived.
Xiao Nai’s eyes lit up, "Oh, now that everyone is here, let’s have a competition. Whoever comes in last will be responsible for making breakfast tomorrow. How about that?"
Qin Lang still didn’t know what was going on, "Compete in what?"
Xiao Nai: "Go-kart racing competition. Do you dare to join?"
Mansa immediately said, "Husband, go for it!"
With his wife saying that, how could he refuse?
Qin Lang laughed, "Sure, I won’t talk about coming first or second. I’ll try to aim for the fourth place."
That was a very modest statement.
Su Ye was already gearing up, "Then let’s play, I’ll aim for third place, okay?"
Shen Dang and Sheng Chao had no objections, although go-karting seemed a bit childish for them, it was just right for Su Tutu and Qiao Xi.
Xiao Nai: "Alright, it’s settled then. The last one will take care of tomorrow’s breakfast."
Su Ye: "Looks like I can rest tomorrow then."
"Don’t speak too soon. Let’s compete first," Qin Lang said, "President Sheng and Boss Shen haven’t spoken yet."
Both big shots looked composed, it was still uncertain who would lose or win.
The go-karts were two-seaters.
All guests had sports cameras installed.
Shen Dang let Qiao Xi sit in the passenger seat.
Qiao Xi looked at him, "You haven’t driven a go-kart before, have you?"
Shen Dang leaned back, a relaxed and lazy demeanor, "No."
But this was child’s play to him.
"You better not end up last then."
Shen Dang gently pinched her face, "Don’t you trust me?"
Qiao Xi playfully said, "I’ll see your performance first."
"Then I must show off myself today."
Qiao Xi clenched her fist, giving him a go-for-it gesture.
The host asked, "Is everyone ready?"
"Good, I now declare, ’How Can I Not Be Moved’ season one outdoor go-kart racing competition, officially starts!"
With the command, the five go-karts at the starting line dashed out simultaneously.
The racing type go-karts were fast, with very low chassis. The drivers felt motion two to three times more intense than the actual speed.
The roaring and rumbling was exhilarating.
With their own wives next to them, each male guest was all pumped up to charge forward.
The structure of the go-kart was very simple, and so was the operation. Shen Dang, holding the steering wheel, maneuvered past each bend.
He was all laid back, a lazy arrogance about him, as if not racing but simply enjoying a ride.
Yet, his speed was not slow, and he could even afford a leisurely chat with Qiao Xi.
Sheng Chao was almost keeping pace with him.
The other couples were also hot on their tails.
Zhu Zhu urged Xiao Nai nervously and excitedly, "Husband, go a bit faster! Go for it, go for it!"
Xiao Nai flustered, "It’s fast enough already, stop rushing me."
Zhu Zhu laughed out loud, "You’re falling behind!"
She seemed quite happy about him lagging.
Mansa waved her arms and cheered, "Husband, go for it! Push, push, push!" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet
Qin Lang: "Okay, I’m pushing!"
But with Shen Dang and Sheng Chao like two big mountains pressing in front of him, he couldn’t get past.
Gu Yingying was much calmer, "Husband, let’s just prioritize safety."
Su Tutu: "Brother Chao, we need to overtake Boss Shen and Xixi."
Sheng Chao was calm and collected.
An upcoming bend was the last on their route.
Sheng Chao turned the steering wheel to the left, pressing his kart next to Shen Dang’s, attempting to squeeze him out.
Just to pass this bend first, and they would win.
Shen Dang dodged by turning the steering wheel, letting Sheng Chao seize the opportunity to rush out first, reaching the finish line ahead of everyone.
As soon as Su Tutu unbuckled her seat belt, she immediately hugged Sheng Chao.
Sheng Chao patted her back, "You’re hugging too tightly."
He had a smile on his face.
Su Tutu was delighted, her eyes sparkling as she looked at him, "How come my husband is so outstanding."
Being praised made Sheng Chao happy, yet his expression remained composed, "That’s why he’s your husband."
After removing his seatbelt with his left hand, Sheng Chao with one arm wrapped around Su Tutu’s waist, lifted her down.
Shen Dang and Qiao Xi came second.
Qiao Xi’s eyes curved, "This result is also quite good."
Her hair tousled, Shen Dang brushed her hair, his eyes brimming with a smile, "Didn’t disgrace you, did I?"
Qin Lang and Mansa followed closely.
Fourth place went to Xiao Nai and Zhu Zhu.
Zhu Zhu: "We still managed fourth place, I’ll grudgingly give you a ’Not Bad.’"
Xiao Nai with his arm around her shoulder, "Didn’t I say with you here I wouldn’t lose?"
He was still recalling the volleyball game from the morning.
Zhu Zhu removed his hand, "By ’Not Bad’ I mean luckily you didn’t end up last, otherwise all of us would have to go hungry during tomorrow’s filming."
Hearing everyone’s laughter, Xiao Nai scratched his head, "Wife, give me some face, will you?"
Zhu Zhu consoled, "It’s okay, husband, after all, everyone knows you can’t cook, thanks to Teacher Su letting us off."
Su Ye chuckled and shook his head, "You guys are really something. I lost, so everyone can sleep a bit longer tomorrow, I’ll prepare breakfast."
Back at the bed and breakfast, Su Ye considerately asked, "What does everyone want to eat? You can order by writing it on a Post-it note."
Qiao Xi said, "Whatever Teacher Su cooks is fine by me, any objections?"
She asked the others.
Zhu Zhu raised her hand, "I have no objections."
Su Tutu was even more indifferent, "I’m not picky, anything edible is fine."
Su Ye smiled, "Then, I’ll have free rein tomorrow."
’How Can I Not Be Moved’ was truly the most relaxed show he had ever filmed.
Today’s shoot ended early.
The last part was an exclusive task for the male guests.
After doing their wives’ eyebrows in the morning, was it not their task to remove the makeup before bed?
That was their assignment.
Shen Dang looked at Qiao Xi’s full array of skincare products, somewhat puzzled, "Xi Bao, which one is for makeup removal?"
He actually couldn’t tell.
"Makeup remover wipes."
Shen Dang fumbled on the table, "Is it this one?"
Qiao Xi looked at the green packaged wipes he was holding and nodded, "Yes, that’s it."
"Come here, I’ll help you remove your makeup."
Qiao Xi approached him, "Then you better clean it thoroughly."
The two went into the bathroom.
The follow-along cameraman dodged the bathroom mirrors, looking for angles to shoot.
Shen Dang unpacked it, pulled out a wet wipe, and as Qiao Xi was about to instruct him, he slaps the whole wet wipe onto her face.
Qiao Xi was about to burst into laughter in exasperation, "Not !"
Shen Dang innocently, "Then how should it be?"
"Use the wipes to gently rub it across your face."
Qiao Xi was exasperated.
Did he really get it, or was it just pretense?
Getting Boss Shen to do these tasks really was a challenge.
Seeing Qiao Xi’s skeptical look, Shen Dang, with a sullen face, "I really got it. If you’re not satisfied, you can hit me, okay?"
