Ning Xiaoyu didn’t have much luggage to bring so she didn’t need to organize anything. She could just pull up her suitcase and leave.
So while everyone else was sorting out all kinds of clothes and skin care products, she was lying on the bed playing a farming game.
This casual game was called 《Farm King》 and its recent download volume had been astonishingly high. This included Lu Jingdu’s credit. For this reason, the love system had scolded the game company a lot, saying that they have taken advantage of its host, otherwise how could the movie king promote them without spending a penny?
While Ning Xiaoyu was engrossed on growing crops, the love system was still babbling in her ear.
【Girl, that was really too sweet just now. Wuuwuuwuu, I’m so excited that I can’t stand it, system’s CPU is so hot it’s burning up.】
Ning Xiaoyu asked sincerely while playing, “So you’re going to burn out?”
She didn’t really do anything, right? Wasn’t it just that she chose option C, saying that it was Lu Jingdu’s own initiative, and Lu Jingdu himself didn’t deny it? To this extent, the love system’s CPU was about to burn out?
The love system shyly said, 【I’m still a new system and don’t have much experience. If there are more exciting things in the future, the host doesn’t have to pity me, even if the chip is burned, it doesn’t matter!】
Ning Xiaoyu: “……”
Eating sugar to this extent, the love system probably was the only one.
After the love system said so, it continued with a sweet expression, 【However, Host, you wearing a salted fish face while talking with tea flavor, the lethality really doubled.】 Ning Yuwei’s face was almost deformed from anger. The system was truly satisfied.
Ning Xiaoyu shrugged and said nothing. She continued to grow crops.

In the afternoon, all the guests gathered at the first floor of Friends Lodge and then drove to the airport together.
Three hours later, the plane landed at the airport in N city of S province.
After arriving, the twelve guests took the bus to the Jiangnan water town next to N city.
Upon reaching their destination, they first had a random spade money segment.
The program team would put papers with different denominations of friendship coins together. The guests would put on blindfolds, shovel the papers using a spade, and put it into the bamboo basket. They could exchange as many friendship coins as they shoveled.
This was a recently popular game.
The program team keeps pace with the times and the trends by adopting the same approach when giving out pocket money this time around.
Each guest had three chances to use the shovel. If they were unlucky and the friendship coins they shovel weren’t enough for food, drink or shelter, they could only work to pay off the debt or ask other guests for coins.
However, even if a guest asks, it depends on whether other guests would be willing to give them any. If they didn’t, it was cool.
The first guest to try was Xi Rui.
After she put on the blindfold, she kept whispering, “More, more.”
The amount of friendship coins directly determined her quality of life for the following three days.
If she got more friendship coins, then for these three days, she could live in the best guest house, eat well, and dress well. If she got fewer, then she could only have three difficult days.
Traveling to Jiangnan, she naturally wanted to make her life better.
Xi Rui took a shovel for the first time. However, it came empty.
【Laughing to death. Not a single piece of paper was scooped up. This is too unlucky.】
【The shovel is too flat, it’s not easy to do.】
【A moment of silence for Xi Rui.】
Xi Rui didn’t know how much she got on her first try. She continued to scoop 50 friendship coins in the second attempt.
In the third one, she got 70.
In other words, Xi Rui’s living expenses for these three days were 120 coins, and on average, the daily accommodation expenses were 40 coins.
Xi Rui took off her blindfold and was devastated after knowing the amount of friendship coins she got. What could 40 coins a day do? The cost of accommodation alone was far from enough.
But her three chances have been used up and she could only wait to see how much the others got. If someone got a lot, she had no other choice but to harden her face at that time.
The second one to challenge was Mu Jiajia.
After she put on the opaque blindfold, she got 30 with her first try, 60 in the second, and 90 in the third, for a total of 180 coins.
【The luck of this two guests is really amazing.】
【How shall I put it, as long as they got a face value of 100, it won’t be so bad.】
【The trick with this thing is not the quantity scooped up but the face value! Face value!】
【However, it also depends on luck. The more you shovel, the higher the probability that there’s a large denomination in it.】
【I can only wish all the guests good luck.】
After the two female guests, Xu Cheng was the third to try.
He should have carefully observed the operations of the previous two female guests and summed it up by himself, so as soon as he came up, his first action was to gather all the paper together with the shovel and then starts to lift them up from the thickest part in the middle.
It’s a pity that he had the theory understood but his hands don’t listen to him. His first try was the same as Xi Rui’s, he scooped up nothing.
【Laughing my head off. Sisters, just having the theory is not enough!!】
【Yes, practice and theory are two different things, please be aware.】
【Watching this thing is really addicting! After this I’ll go and pick up a shovel to play myself. It looks so fun!】
Xu Cheng’s second shovel was 10 and his third shovel did slightly better, getting 50.
He reached a total of 60 coins. He was the most unlucky among the current three guests.
【Carry him away. Next one.】
【Is Xu Cheng going to the rooftop[1]to jump off? Hahaha.】
【Xu Cheng, don’t panic. If you save your money and scrounge up, 60 can do enough.】
After Xu Cheng, other guests also stepped forward. The best one was Ning Yuwei, who shoveled up to 450 coins.
The denominations set by the program team varied with the smallest being 10 and the largest being 100. There were also intermediate values. All denominations have the same amount of 5.
As a viewer said before, as long as they shovel a few 100 yuan denominations, friendship coins were secured.
It’s a pity that the first few guests were unlucky and none of them got the face value of 100.
When Ning Yuwei came up, she was lucky, shovelling in two 100’s, one 20, one 30, and four 50 face value papers.
Ning Yuwei became the richest guest, instantly becoming the most popular person and surrounded by Xi Rui and the others.
Ning Yuwei smiled sweetly. “When the time comes, everyone can eat together and share a room, this way the cost will be much less.”
Xi Rui: “Okay, Weiwei.”
Mu Jiajia: “Weiwei, I’ll stay with you then.”
After Ning Yuwei, it was Lu Jingdu’s turn.
Lu Jingdu’s fans looked on in anticipation, wanting to see him sweep the entire scene.
Unfortunately, when Lu Jingdu came up, he was even worse than Xu Cheng. His first attempt was empty, his second one continued to be empty, and the third one had some gains. Although it was only a piece of paper with a face value of 10, at least he didn’t end up with 0 friendship coins.
【I feel sorry for Brother. His luck is really extreme.】
【Brother only has 10 friendship coins for living expenses! What to do?】
【What else? Ask for it!】
【The one with the highest coins right now is Ning Yuwei. If Brother goes to ask Ning Yuwei, there should be no problem.】
【But somehow I feel that Brother won’t ask her, and I also don’t want Brother to go to her for friendship coins.】
After Lu Jingdu was done, only Ning Xiaoyu was left.
She took the blindfold and shovel from Lu Jingdu’s hand. She put the blindfold on casually, sat down lazily on the ground, and began to scoop up paper.
【Love System: Go for it, Girl!】
Ning Xiaoyu didn’t know much about other people, but she often did things with her eyes closed.
Why? Because there were times when she was sleeping in a daze and there’s suddenly something that she needed to do. She wanted to keep her eyes close and solve the matter quickly, so that she could continue to lie down and sleep.
Typing back messages with closed eyes was a common practice.
She had even cooked porridge with her eyes closed. To be honest, there was no difference between cooking it with eyes closed and cooking it with eyes open.
Compared to cooking porridge, responding with closed eyes was nothing.
After putting on the blindfold, Ning Xiaoyu, like Xu Cheng, first sorted all the papers together, and then shoveled them down neatly. She got a shovel full and it steadily fell on the bamboo basket.
【???】
【!!!】
【Why is the salted fish king so talented?!】
【This is simply amazing!】
【What can I say? Truly the king of salted fish!】
【Quickly count. How much money is there?!】
The staff immediately came to count the friendship coins.
After counting clearly, the staff couldn’t help drawing in a breath. “450!” Compared with other guests, Ning Xiaoyu’s performance was really outstanding.
【450 for the first shovel! My scalp is tingling.】
【One try reaches Ning Yuwei’s three tries.】
【I’m dying of laughter. The movie king don’t even have a fraction of Xiao Yu’s coins.】
【I feel sorry for the movie king.】
【I feel sorry for Xu Cheng.】
【Xiao Yu, go on, keep going!】
The paper that Ning Xiaoyu shoveled wouldn’t be put back. The total denomination was 2,750 and Ning Xiaoyu had already gotten 450. There were still 2,300 left.
She didn’t let the audience wait with bated breath and quickly scooped up the second one.
Just like the first time, her hands remained steady and she continued to put the papers into the basket.
Under the impatient urging of the audience, the staff quickly carried out the second round of counting.
After doing so, the staff said with a complicated face, “Second shovel, 560.”
【Laughing to death. The second one is more than the first!】
【Xiao Yu may be getting more comfortable, after all, playing this kind of game also depends on your grasp!】
【Xiao Yu, continue to charge! All the other guests combined are probably no match for Xiao Yu alone!】
【In this trip to Jiangnan, Xiao Yu is bound to become the richest one!】
Soon it was the third time.
No one could have too many friendship coins. After all, this thing was equivalent to real currency. If guests had a use for real currency, such as paying for accommodation or something like that, they could exchange friendship currency into real currency.
Ning Xiaoyu’s third try did not disappoint the audience.
It only took ten minutes for the staff to go from being surprised at the beginning, to being shocked, to being numb.
The staff member said without any fluctuation in his tone, “Third shovel, 570.”
【450 + 560 + 570 = 1,580. Xiao Yu got more than half of it by herself!】
【Awesome, really awesome! Xiao Yu is something else!】
【Ahhhhh, how can Xiao Yu be so good at this?! Really skillful!】
The director also wondered how Ning Xiaoyu was so good at playing this game.
If he knew that Ning Xiaoyu often did things with her eyes closed and even cooked porridge like so, he wouldn’t have this doubt.
After Ning Xiaoyu removed the blindfold, she took the papers from the staff.
1,580 friendship coins meant she had more than 500 friendship coins to use every day. Compared with other guests, it could be said she’s holding a huge sum of money.
But before the friendship coins could get warm in her hands, the voice of the love system rang in her ears again.
【Girl, there’s one thing that many people don’t know. In fact, the movie king is afraid of the dark. If you observed carefully, you should have noticed that the movie king’s right hand was shaking slightly when he was shoveling paper with his blindfold on. Although the trembling was very small, it was still noticeable if one looked closely. I feel greatly distressed for the Movie King Brother.
The movie king only got 10 friendship coins, can you bear to see him have no money for accommodation?! Do you have the heart to watch him ask other people for friendship coins? At this time, you can——
A: During these three days, let the movie king eat whatever you’re eating. Share your for food and drinks with him, hehehe.
B: During these three days, let the movie king share a room with you and spare him from paying the accommodation fee, hehehe.
C: During these three days, be domineering and cover all his expenses, hehehe.】
These three ‘hehehe’ of the love system following each option were very spiritual.
Ning Xiaoyu tried to talk to it with her deadpan face, “Can you be normal?”
The love system didn’t answer directly, but only said, 【Hehehe, Girl, go for it, you can choose whichever!】
In fact, Ning Xiaoyu preferred option A. Lu Jingdu could eat whatever she eats, it’s just a matter of having an extra pair of chopsticks and wouldn’t cost much. But if did so, then she would have to eat three meals with him.
It would be too much of a hassle.
Therefore, option A was ruled out by Ning Xiaoyu.
As for option B, Ning Xiaoyu laughed twice. Only the love system could come up with an option that could easily invite trouble. How could someone afraid of trouble cause one for herself? No need to think about it at all, she directly chose C.
Ning Xiaoyu herself had 1,580 friendship coins, so she generously handed 700 coins to Lu Jingdu.
“Here, for you.” If he spends conscientiously, 700 coins would be sufficient for Lu Jingdu to spend these three days. The price of a room at a guest house there was around 100 per night. Excluding the accommodation fee, Lu Jingdu’s food expenses for three days were a full 400 coins, which was enough for him to eat and drink well.
Everyone: “???”
Love system: “!!!”
Xi Rui looked remorseful. Had she known that Ning Xiaoyu was so generous, why would she need to build a good relationship with Ning Yuwei?! Wouldn’t it be better to go to Ning Xiaoyu’s side to brush up on their familiarity?
While the others were still stunned and shocked, the screams from the love system almost deafened Ning Xiaoyu’s ears, 【Ahhhhhh, Girl, you’re so A[2]alpha! I just ate sugar! Ate sugar ah!!】 Directly covering all of the movie king’s expenses for three days was really too sweet. It’s so sweet and thrilling that its CPU heated up!
Ning Xiaoyu had a salted fish face on.
What else could she do if she met a runaway prince?
