CHAPTER 67: CHAPTER 67: TOTALLY UNDER CONTROL

"Have some more, I can handle another bowl," Qin Yun said generously, nodding without hesitation.

Upon hearing this, Yang Leqi’s eyes lit up, and she put down her porridge to start eating the noodles as well.

"Brother Yao, your cooking is amazing. This is one of the top three scallion oil noodles I’ve ever had," Yang Leqi nodded in agreement.

"Thank you all for being so supportive," Chen Yao laughed.

Because the two were eating so appetizingly, the other three each had another bowl of scallion oil noodles as well.

Qin Yun ate two bowls of scallion oil noodles, one bowl of century egg and lean pork congee, and a basket of soup dumplings.

After eating, it was almost ten forty. As they walked contentedly to the lobby, the director asked, "Are you all full?"

"..."

Reflexively feeling something was wrong, Wang Sirui immediately pulled a face, "No, we haven’t eaten much. We were just planning to go out and find something to eat."

"Oh... is that so? Then you probably don’t have much money left, right?" the director continued to ask.

Even though they didn’t have much money left, Wang Sirui confidently patted his bag, determined not to fall for the production team’s trick, "... Director, I still have money!"

"Do you have enough left for dinner?" The director gently suggested.

"Director!! We’re not having dinner!!!" Yang Leqi immediately shouted.

"If you all aren’t eating, is she not eating too?" The director looked at Qin Yun, smiling kindly.

"I have snacks," Qin Yun calmly took out a bunch of treats from her pocket and confidently opened a bag of cookies to eat.

The smile on the director’s face cracked slightly.

He swore that next time he would thoroughly search Qin Yun’s bag!! He couldn’t believe she’d have anything hidden next time!!!

"Are you sure you don’t want to participate? The winner can enjoy a lavish dinner this evening," the director said with a mysterious smile.

Qin Yun’s radar immediately went off, her eyes laser-focused on the director as she asked, "Dinner? What kind of dinner?"

"A feast prepared by a team of five-star chefs featuring seafood and top-grade 5A Wagyu beef."

"I’m in!!" Qin Yun’s eyes sparkled openly as she was effortlessly lured by the director.

"Director, just tell us what we need to do," Pei Yan looked at Qin Yun, then at the others, and sighed lightly.

"I love speaking with Mr. Pei," the director immediately replied, "Each person chooses an envelope, which contains the information about the target person you need to find. Once you locate the target person, complete the task they assign to receive a token from them. The first person to bring the token back here will enjoy the luxurious dinner. The last will have to get up early to make breakfast for everyone."

"Director, can’t you change the punishment? You know Brother Yao wouldn’t let me help. I can’t do it," Wang Sirui pouted.

"No worries, you can ask someone to help you as long as they’re willing," the director firmly refused.

"You’re always so whiny, even more than me," Yang Leqi commented expressionlessly.

Wang Sirui: "..."

The director stifled a laugh, "The target person is within a kilometer radius. They might be in the streets or alleys, or even in an office building. In any case, they’re famous locals. Also, there’s a machine at the hotel entrance that offers clues for ten yuan each every ten minutes. The clues might be for someone else or for yourself. Whoever has the most money has the greatest chance of winning. Now, you can pick your envelopes."

The six individuals each drew an envelope and set out based on the descriptions to find their targets.

Wanting to enjoy the dinner, Qin Yun was the first to dash out.

"Sister Yun! Sister Yun, wait for me!" Yang Leqi was stunned. The moment she realized Qin Yun had disappeared, she immediately ran after her, shouting.

The others, not willing to be up early making breakfast, and especially not those who had just done it that morning, quickly followed.

Qin Yun opened her envelope, which read: ’Indispensable.’

Qin Yun was baffled, "???

That’s it??

Yang Leqi quickly caught up, saw that Qin Yun had already opened her envelope, and immediately opened hers too.

Hers read: ’Early riser.

The other four gradually gathered, seeing the bewildered looks on the two’s faces. They peeked at their papers and then opened theirs.

Wang Sirui’s read: ’Face-lift.’

Pei Yan’s read: ’Burns oneself.’

Chen Yao’s read: ’Move up and down.’

Qin Hao’s read: ’Shrouded in smoke.’

Their initial reaction was all the same: Are they serious? With such scarce information, how are we supposed to find them in such a large area??

They quickly realized that the director’s earlier mention of a machine at the hotel entrance where they could buy information... made sense now.

The problem was, they didn’t have any money!!

"I think I saw a job posting at the entrance?" Chen Yao hesitated for two seconds before saying.

When he passed by earlier, he seemed to notice a paper at the entrance. It seemed to be a job opening, but he didn’t pay any attention to it as they were there for a mission, not job hunting.

Suddenly, they all fell silent, "..."

The production team really knows how to push us around!!!

They silently returned to the hotel entrance, and sure enough, there were four job postings. It was clearly prearranged, just waiting for them to take the bait.

Knowing that Qin Yun loves to eat, if lavish meals are on offer, Qin Yun would surely agree, and if she agreed, Yang Leqi would certainly comply too.

Wang Sirui would likely also agree, making it three out of six down. With only three more to go, it couldn’t be that hard, right?

No doubt, the production team has them completely under their control!!

"Let’s each pick a job to earn some money and exchange information later. We have enough for two pieces of information," Chen Yao took a deep breath and reluctantly pulled out two ten-yuan bills from his pocket.

"Sister Yun, let’s be greeters at this store. It’s sixty yuan an hour," Yang Leqi quickly picked a job and suggested.

"Okay." Qin Yun agreed, indifferent to what she would do.

"I’ll take this moving job," Chen Yao immediately chose one.

"I’ll be a promoter at this mall," Pei Yan finally chose the mall job.

"We’ll do deliveries," Wang Sirui and Qin Hao looked at each other and said.

"Alright, let’s split up," and with that decision, they headed out.

They went their separate ways to the jobs they chose.

Qin Yun and Yang Leqi headed to a newly opened mall that needed greeters for its opening ceremony.

Once there, they found the person in charge, who, upon seeing their looks and heights, promptly decided and had them change into their outfits.
