I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 195 - 189: The Money-Saving Meeting Gift!

Zheng He couldn’t help but swallow, his eyes widening.

What a temptation!

Is this not enticing him to commit a crime?

Currently, many large supermarkets have automatic payment machines at the entrance, and this large supermarket is no exception.

As for why there are two price tags on the premium fruit basket, he thought it over carefully.

The fruit price tag was intact, but the scallion price tag seemed to have been re-stickered, likely someone carelessly pasted it onto the fruit basket after tearing it off the scallions.

Such mischievous behavior was probably the work of some child.

If... just speaking hypothetically, he pretended not to know, didn’t notice, and scanned the scallion price tag to make the payment, nobody would probably notice, right?

Even if he was unlucky and got caught, he couldn’t be blamed, right?

After all, he wasn’t the one who placed the scallion price tag there!

Most importantly, it felt like a great opportunity; if he didn’t seize it, he would feel somewhat at a loss.

He glanced around furtively and, after mustering his courage, took the premium fruit basket with the scallion price tag while no one was watching.

When he got to the self-checkout machine on the second floor, he prudently turned off the live broadcasting camera, so no one could see how much he was paying.

Only after safely leaving the supermarket did Zheng He allow his uncontrollable smile to form as he walked to a secluded corner.

He carefully opened the cling wrap on the fruit basket, took out a snake fruit and a doughnut peach, then resealed the cling wrap perfectly, just as if it was untouched.

A premium fruit basket bought for only two yuan and ninety-nine cents, how satisfying!

Even though it was for gifting, he had now essentially recouped the two yuan and ninety-nine cents from eating the fruits!

After finishing the fruits, Zheng He turned on the live broadcasting camera.

At one o’clock in the afternoon, five guests gathered downstairs of the apartment.

Apart from Han Qianyi and Zheng He, the other three were empty-handed.

[Han Qianyi bought so much stuff, must have spent a lot, right?]

[In total, she spent over seven hundred just on some flowers and cakes. The cakes are okay, but the flowers seem a bit impractical, kind of a waste of money.]

[Does Han Qianyi even want to win anymore? I just can’t understand her actions.]

[She wants to win! Can’t you all see, she’s not targeting the five million, she wants to be a female star, so she keeps up appearances to not seem as low as other guests.]

[Zheng He is quite generous to have bought a fruit basket!]

[Zheng He is frugal, but unlike Chen Xixi who is stingily indiscriminate, he tailors his actions based on the person. When the sponsor came, he spent quite a bit to treat the sponsor. He sucks up to those with money and status, while he bullies and acts smug towards the less fortunate like Chen Xixi and Han Qianyi.]

[Even Jin Cheng and Wan Chen didn’t buy anything; this makes Chen Xixi not seem so special anymore.]

[Jin Cheng would buy if he had money, but he might as well sell his overseas trip ticket for some good meals! Not sure why Wan Chen didn’t buy anything, but I heard Wan Chen’s family is quite wealthy, though not sure how accurate that info is.]

[Wan Chen’s family is also wealthy? So in this show, only Han Qianyi and Chen Xixi are the poor ones?]

The five guests got into the car together and arrived at the variety show challenge site about forty minutes later.

Zheng He, holding the fruit basket, turned to look back at Han Qianyi.

Han Qianyi was struggling to carry three bouquets of flowers and two boxes of cakes, having difficulty walking.

He stopped, waited for Han Qianyi to catch up to him, and then took two bouquets from her hands, "Let me help you."

Han Qianyi was stunned for a moment. When did Zheng He become so nice?

Was it because his popularity was zero, so he started doing good deeds to accumulate virtue?

No! Zheng He couldn’t be that kind of person!

After being silent for a while, she realized something and hurriedly caught up with Zheng He, "No need for your help, I can do it myself, I can handle it!"

"No, you can’t, let me help you carry it!"

Eventually, Han Qianyi couldn’t outcompete Zheng He. When they entered the reality TV show venue and saw five celebrity guests, that shameless Zheng He actually gave her flowers to Jiang Xingze and Guan Yingying right in front of Han Qianyi.

He then carried a fruit basket, grinned, and said, "Hello everyone, this is the fruit and flowers I brought for you, a little gesture for our first meeting."

Han Qianyi: !!! Are those flowers bought by you?!

She knew this guy definitely had no good intentions!

Furthermore, those two bouquets were supposed to be given to Fang Shihui and another female star. Jiang Xingze and Guan Yingying liked sweets, so she specifically bought them low-sugar, low-fat cakes, which cost a lot of money.

She researched the remaining three guests who didn’t like sweets, so she prepared the flowers accordingly, but that big fool Zheng He completely messed up her carefully planned strategy based on their preferences! ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Since the flowers were already handed out, it wasn’t appropriate to ask for them back. Han Qianyi had no choice but to give the remaining bouquet to Fang Shihui and the two pieces of cake to the remaining two guests.

Han Qianyi politely bowed, moved the stray hair behind her ear, and softly said, "Hello everyone, all the flowers and cakes were bought with my own money, I hope you all like them."

Money should not be wasted, especially since these are big stars, she couldn’t let that scoundrel Zheng He take the credit for her!

On the path to fame, she wouldn’t allow anyone to become a stumbling block!

[Wow! Han Qianyi did great this time!]

[Finally, Zheng He’s schemes didn’t succeed! Good job!]

[Han Qianyi finally made me happy! I hope she keeps it up and doesn’t disappoint me again!]

The celebrity guests on the challenge reality show listened, utterly confused.

Do guests on budget reality shows always make so much drama? Even giving flowers can create a scene.

It’s really an eye-opener.

Jin Cheng and Wan Chen didn’t prepare anything; the two just nodded as a greeting and that was it.

When everyone’s attention was focused on Chen Xixi, both Han Qianyi and Zheng He couldn’t help but secretly sneer inside.

Chen Xixi was famously stingy, also the most controversial online.

Therefore, countless eyes online were watching Chen Xixi, always waiting for her to do something inappropriate, to criticize Chen Xixi’s stinginess.

If Chen Xixi really hadn’t prepared anything this time, then her stingy behavior would definitely become a topic for discussion, criticizing Chen Xixi for her lack of manners.

However, it seemed there wouldn’t be any twist this time since Chen Xixi didn’t have anything in her hands, only a small bag the size of a palm on her shoulder.

What could such a small bag hold?

Definitely nothing!

Chen Xixi is going to be scolded again very soon!

Just as Zheng He and Han Qianyi were smugly speculating, Chen Xixi looked at the celebrity guests, smiled politely, and said:

"Hello everyone, I have also prepared gifts for our meeting. I know the teachers probably don’t need my little gift, but it’s a small token of my appreciation. My gift isn’t anything special, it’s just something that can help the teachers save a little money, I hope you all will like it."

"!!!"

A money-saving gift? What could that be?
