31: Only flesh-colored ones are available.

"Hurry up, Brother Fan, we're just waiting for you!"

"Yeah, you're the only one who blanked today, yet you're still dawdling. We're starving to death."

Gao Xiaofan carried the large iron pot and placed it on the table with the induction cooker groove. The fish stew inside, which had just settled, began to bubble and boil again.

After putting down the iron pot, Gao Xiaofan wiped his sweat with his elbow.

"Alright, hurry up and eat. I told you guys not to wait for me."

Beside him, Intentional Punch also came over from the kitchen, carrying the steamed fish head with chopped chili.

"Smells good, it smells so good."

At the square table, Gao Xiaofan sat on one side alone. Zhang Dali and Hu Bu Shi Lang sat on the left, the crouching dragon and fledgling phoenix duo sat on the right, while Li Yuer and Zhao Yuling sat opposite him.

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together. Having been busy until now, they all let out a refreshing sigh after drinking the ice-cold beer.

Everyone laughed heartily, then their fingers moved in unison, frantically grabbing for the fish head without giving an inch.

The massive fish head was completely devoured in less than three minutes.

Intentional Punch said indistinctly while eating the fish meat.

"Why is this so delicious? Brother Wo Zi, your skills are amazing. I feel like this tastes better than what they serve in restaurants."

"That's because you've been working hard all afternoon," Gao Xiaofan said with a smile.

Strong Hand Cracks Skull looked at the Golden Retriever beside him and curled his lip. "You had a great time fishing today, didn't you? A Bighead Carp over thirty pounds."

Once the fish head was finished, everyone slowed down, drinking beer and chatting while the barbecue grill beside them sizzled.

The ingredients at the farmhouse were all prepared—chicken wings, pork belly, beef—they just needed to be skewered and grilled.

Zhang Dali, who was sitting close by, would occasionally get up from the table to flip the skewers and brush them with oil and seasoning.

"Brother Dali, are you trying to dodge the drinks? Come back quickly. Brother Dali worked hard today, let's give him a toast."

Gao Xiaofan said with a smile, holding up his glass.

Zhang Dali wiped his hands, returned to the table with a smile, and raised his glass.

"Thanks for the hospitality, Brother Dali."

"Thanks for the hospitality, Brother Dali."

...Halfway through the drinks, Gao Xiaofan suddenly smiled and said softly.

"Brothers, I might not be able to livestream for a while."

After saying that, he let out a deep sigh.

The previously heated atmosphere cooled down instantly, and everyone was a bit stunned.

Intentional Punch put down his chopsticks. "Brother Wo Zi, is there some kind of trouble? Tell us, and I'll help you solve it."

At that moment, Zhao Yuling couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing.

Gao Xiaofan gave Zhao Yuling a helpless look and waved his hand, signaling her to speak.

How boring, no cooperation at all.

Everyone turned their gaze toward Zhao Yuling.

Zhao Yuling said with a smile, "It's a long story, but if nothing goes wrong, Brother Wo Zi should be going on a variety show."

Intentional Punch: "???"

Strong Hand Cracks Skull: "???"

Hu Bu Shi Lang: "???"

Zhang Dali: "???"

What does fishing have to do with variety shows???

Li Yuer had a look of surprise, her mouth hanging wide open.

"It wouldn't be the Ai Qi Film and Television variety show at the end of the month, would it??"

Zhao Yuling nodded with a smile.

Gao Xiaofan took a bite of a skewer and said, "I should also thank Little Yu. If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have this opportunity."

Zhao Yuling quickly waved her hands. "No, I was just auditing at the station today. It wasn't just our station; Ai Qi Film and Television also had you on their shortlist. So when our station made the proposal, it was approved immediately."

The men at the table finally realized what was happening and became excited instantly.

Intentional Punch: "Nice one, you're starting to play tricks on us now. You gave me a fright just now."

Strong Hand Cracks Skull said enviously, "Going on TV, that's something to be proud of."

Zhang Dali: "You must take a penalty drink, definitely a penalty drink, for being so dramatic."

Gao Xiaofan hurriedly begged for mercy. The table had already gone through six crates of beer, and he had the lowest tolerance; any more and he'd really be dizzy.

Hu Bu Shi Lang: "Then if Brother Wo Zi goes to record the show, he really won't have the chance to livestream."

Li Yuer didn't join in the heckling; instead, her eyes lit up.

"Then you guys don't know, right? This time, the Ai Qi Film and Television show is a 24-hour non-stop livestream. What does that mean? It means you can see Brother Wo Zi at any time."

"Holy crap! Brother Wo Zi is awesome."

Intentional Punch stood up abruptly, so emotional that he left everyone at the table stunned.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Intentional Punch gave a dry laugh and sat back down.

God knows how bored he was at the company every day. Having watched so many scripted livestreams, only Brother Wo Zi's livestream had the most explosive effect.

Gao Xiaofan smiled and raised his glass. "Alright, Brothers, our gathering today has been a complete success. I'm very happy. Drink!"

After saying that, he downed the wine in his glass in one gulp and collapsed dizzily onto the table.

The others laughed at the scene. After Zhao Yuling and Li Yuer helped Gao Xiaofan to the guest room to lie down, they came back out to continue chatting.

As they drank more and more, the table full of food was finished. It was now early morning, and everyone finally dispersed.

There were many guest rooms in the farmhouse, but to prevent any accidents, they still stayed two to a room. After all, the surrounding area was undeveloped; there might be snakes or rats, and two people wouldn't be as scared.

As for Gao Xiaofan, he was already snoring, sleeping alone in a room.

Inside the guest room, Zhao Yuling sat on the bed, watching Li Yuer take stockings out of her bag, and asked curiously.

"Sister Yuer, why did you take off your stockings?"

Li Yuer sniffed her stockings. Besides the fragrance of her own body, there was no other odor. Hearing Zhao Yuling's question, she said casually.

"Oh, Brother Wo Zi told me to take them off."

Zhao Yuling: "???"

After Li Yuer finished speaking, she pounced over excitedly.

"Little Yu, hurry up and tell me, which celebrities are participating in the variety show? You must know, hurry and give me some inside info."

Zhao Yuling had to piece together her fragmented consciousness and thought for a moment before replying.

"Currently, it seems two are still unconfirmed, but those confirmed so far are Mi Mi... Hua Hua."

"Oh man, Hua Hua is there too? I kind of don't want to watch it now." Li Yuer looked disappointed, but her interest was piqued again in an instant.

"What's the content of this variety show? I mean, is there any possibility of Brother Wo Zi slapping some faces?"

Zhao Yuling shook her head and smiled bitterly.

"I really don't know that. It should be considered the core of the show. iQiyi has invested so much this time, and their confidentiality work is very meticulous."

Hearing this, Li Yuer lost her energy as well. She didn't even bother washing up, hugged her pillow, and fell asleep.

Zhao Yuling looked at Li Yuer's long white legs, then at the [redacted content] being squeezed out because she was lying face down. She couldn't help but look down at the [redacted content] on her own chest and subconsciously bit her lip.

She lay down on the bed, covered herself with the quilt, and blinked her eyes.

"Mine... are only flesh-colored..."
