Chapter 15: Little Monkey

Qi Xingchen stared at the chat screen for a moment, reluctantly grabbed his jacket and pulled the door open.

Bai Ye was standing outside the door, a bag in his hand. The wind is a bit strong in Denmark late in the spring, and Qi Xingchen can feel the lingering, wispy coolness of his body.

Qi Xingchen put his left hand behind his back, blocking the doorway with his body, and asked lazily, "Something wrong?"

Bai Ye said, "Can you let me in."

The man's mouth was questioning, but his tone was affirmative, and whether he said it was convenient or inconvenient the result would surely be the same.

"...... Come in." Qi Xingchen took a step back in resignation, just wishing the other man would finish his questioning and get it over with sooner.

Bai Ye went inside and locked the door behind his back. Qi Xingchen was puzzled by his action - why lock the door when you can ask?

He was then enveloped in a shadow as Bai Ye walked up to him and whispered, "Give me your hand."

Qi Xingchen had a bad feeling, "Reach out? Reach for what?"

"Left hand," Bai Ye paused, "the one you hurt."

"......" Qi Xingchen doesn't say anything.

Before the burglar fled, he pushed him with the hand holding the knife. He stretched out his arm to block it and was accidentally cut by the tip of the knife.

But he didn't want to tell anyone he was hurt, he hadn't been in that habit since he was a kid.

Acrobatics is a very bitter art, easy to start, but hard to practice. During practice, it is common to fall or get hurt by props.

On the first day he entered the troupe, the troupe master told him, "If you want to be a man, you have to bear the pain. All of us here can cry, but don't look for me to cry, you go cry yourself, I can't hear you."

So since then, unless he had a fever so bad that he didn't know what was going on, he hadn't alarmed anyone else in the class.

Since the other party had already found out, it was impossible to hide it, Qi Xingchen licked his lips and said perfunctorily, "It's fine, a small wound."

Bai Ye's expression was irresistible, "Reach out."

"It's really okay."

"...... Why are you so hard-mouthed," Bai Ye sighed darkly and softened his voice, "Reach out, Xingchen."

Reach out, Xingchen.

This was the first time Bai Ye had called him by his nickname, his voice was low and magnetic, and he said it in a soft tone, as if a feather had drifted down to his heart, tickling it numbly and itchily, and Qi Xingchen stretched out his little arm in a ghostly manner.

Bai Ye took him by the wrist and pushed up the sleeve of his jacket. On the white, slender wrist of the little fan, a red scratch snaked lividly upward.

The wound wasn't deep, but it was long. The owner should have flushed it with water, it didn't scab over, and it's no longer oozing blood.

"Sit." Bai Ye ordered, pointing to the side of the bed.

Qi Xingchen sat down again and watched Bai Ye take out antiseptic and gauze.

He vaguely remembers that the program didn't have any medicines on hand and curiously rummages through the bag, "Where did these come from?"

Bai Ye: "Asked for it from a neighbor."

"Which ...... Huh, is this a shopping cart?"

"......" Bai Ye stopped talking.

If you bought it, just say you bought it, why would you lie? Qi Xingchen now knew why Bai Ye was so cold, and smiled as he stuffed the receipt back. Thinking about it, he felt embarrassed, so his eyes drifted around, and finally landed on Bai Ye's hand that was bandaging his wound.

After staring at it for a long time, he realized something amazing - Bai Ye couldn't actually wrap it!

That's right, Bai Ye 柏大天王, the owner of top traffic and 80 million followers on Weibo, can't bandage!

The gauze was wrapped in three layers, hard to turn his arm into a mummy. Qi Xingchen pursed his lips and tried to suppress the desire to laugh out loud.

Bai Ye seemed to feel something, maintaining his head down in the bandage position, lifting his eyelids and giving him a faint look.

Bai Ye is an inner double, with thin eyelids and slightly upturned ends. The shape of her eyes is extremely beautiful when she looks at people from this angle, with a wonderful sense of "anger".

Qi Xingchen dared not look directly at him and immediately lowered his head, reaching up to rub his ears.

The eye attack succeeded, and the Park Mummy Production Worker Night finally stopped warning and gave the gauze a dead end, completing the day successfully.

He summarized his statement, "It's too late now, I guess the doctor is off duty, so get up early tomorrow to get a tetanus shot."

"...... No, it's just a simple scratch, no need to waste money."

Bai Ye snorted.

So Qi Xingchen quickly changed his tune, "Okay, I'll get up early."

After fixing the wound, Bai Ye looked at the time on his wristwatch, 1:00 a.m. It was time to say goodbye.

Before going out the door he paused as if he had realized something, his eyes puzzled, "Qi Xingchen, your ears are red, do you have a fever?"

"...... No, what fever fever fever! I, I'm a person, right ...... Just like a monkey ..... Yes, like a monkey, born with red ears!"

.

This night Qi Xingchen sleep very depressed, do not know why his IQ suddenly offline, good people do not do, have to go to be a monkey.

When he woke up in the morning, Zhang Yunfei, who had guarded Liu Ziyu all night, was standing in the living room with the director, talking to two men dressed as policemen.

"Xingchen, you're just in time," Zhang Yunfei said in English, "Officer, he's the one who fought the burglar head-on last night."

"Wow!" exclaimed the officer in amazement, "a young lad actually, handsome and brave, well done!"

Qi Xingchen saw that it was the local police who had come to collect evidence, smiled and thanked them, and very cooperatively recounted last night's events from beginning to end.

While sending off the police officers and having breakfast, Director Zhao and the guests kept apologizing. Especially Liu Ziyu, who was scared last night, and Qi Xingchen, who was injured, Zhao comforted them for a long time.

The program's inadequate security measures had led to a thief with a knife, and if this segment was broadcasted, I'm afraid it would be drowned by fans' spitballs. So in addition to apologizing, Director Zhao hoped that everyone could help hide the fact that "Poor Traveler" had managed to raise its head a bit this year, and didn't want it to go completely mush as a result.

Qi Xingchen and Liu Ziyu expressed their understanding and understanding, but only understanding, it's not good for them if the variety show is muddled. Moreover, as a big platform, McMansion has many self-produced variety shows and online dramas under its banner, so offending McMansion TV is not worth the loss.

The fact that everything was taken care of in the village of Orsay symbolized the end of the trip to the three villages and it was time to move on to the next destination.

Qi Xingchen, who had fewer things to carry, helped Luo Qiuman to carry his suitcase downstairs after he had carried it himself.

Luo Qiuman counted the heads on the first floor: "Still missing Tao Tao, Tao Tao hasn't finished packing?"

"I don't know," Liu Ziyu replied, "it says something is missing."

"Then I'll go help her-"

Luo Qiuman wanted to go up and help Tao Tao to look for them together, but in the middle of his words, Tao Tao came out from the room, his face white and scary: "I'm sorry everyone, I'm really sorry ......"

Luo Qiuman asked, "What happened?"

"Our money ......" Two lines of teardrops slid down from the bottom of her eyes, Tao Tao's voice trembled, "Our travel fund, we lost it!"

.

When the burglar was running away last night, he took something from the nightstand. There was no light on, and Qi Xingchen was pushed away by the burglar, so I didn't see what the burglar took.

Now we know that what he took was Tao Tao's special coin purse for his travel fund.

With three days left in the trip and the money gone, it was a huge blow to the guests. The first floor of the villa fell into silence, and the only sound left in the large living room was Tao Tao's sobbing.

Qi Xingchen then remembered that the original text does have the plot of the thief stealing the money and the hero comforting him. But the theft of money is not the fault of the heroine, see the heroine crying, he went upstairs to help Tao Tao: "Do not cry, do not blame you."

"I didn't do my part, I shouldn't have left the travel fund out, I should have kept it with me!"

"You didn't know a burglar would come in, did you?" Qi Xingchen said softly, "We can find another way if the money is gone, if you get sick, we'll have to stay in the hospital for three days, and the mission will be a failure yet."

Hearing "mission failure", Tao Tao gradually stopped crying. Luo Qiuman came up to comfort her for a while, saying that everyone didn't blame her, and only then did Tao Tao finally turn from a gloomy state to a happy one.

Without the travel fund, the show had to go on, and the crew was more than happy to do so. They filmed a clip of the missing money, changed "burglary" to "theft on the road", and left the comfort of the village in high spirits.

At the end of the village, Qi Xingchen pulled out some change from his pocket, "I still have a little more than two hundred left over from last night's grocery shopping, it should be enough to pay for our trip to Odense."

Odense is the home of Hans Christian Andersen and one of the more popular places to travel in Denmark. Luo Qiuman Surprise: "Xingchen, didn't you take this money out last night, how come you got it back as is?"

"Because of Bai Ye ...... Brother."

Speaking of the word "Bai Ye", the phrase "Xingchen" suddenly came to my mind, Qi Xingchen's ears warmed up and secretly changed his name: "Bai Ye brother relies on his beauty to help us I'm not sure if this is the right way to go, but I'm sure it is.

"...... Well, let's use the money to get to Odense," Zhang Yunfei said, "and then we'll think about it when we get there."

Tao Tao swelled his eyes and nodded, taking out his cell phone and preparing to call a car.

"Wait." At that moment Bai Ye suddenly voiced out to stop.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Ye turns to Qi Xingchen, "You haven't tetanused your hand."

Qi Xingchen has not disclosed the injury, Bai Ye said in the morning before everyone realized, they all think that the thief's knife may not be clean, need to be tetanus.

Then the money was lost and everyone was so busy consoling Tao Tao that they threw the tetanus out of the window.

Zhang Yunfei hit his head, "Right, why did I forget about this, let's take Xingchen to get a shot first."

"Take the shot ......" Tao Tao hesitates slightly.

Zhang Yunfei didn't hear: "Tao Tao, what did you say?"

Tao Tao bit his lower lip and didn't answer.

Qi Xingchen sighed, he knew what Tao Tao meant - there were only about two hundred kroner left, if he took the injection, would he have to drink the northwest wind next?

"It's okay." Qi Xingchen volunteered, "The wound is already scabbed over, no need for an injection."

"No." Bai Ye shook his head.

"The injection is taking too long, and I'm afraid I won't get to Odense today."

Bai Ye gave him a sidelong glance, the little fan purposely didn't mention the money and used the disruption of his schedule as an excuse, obviously to defend Tao Tao.

But it really wasn't a good idea to use the last of the inventory now, either that or it would easily cause disagreements when it was aired. He called Director Zhao aside and said a few words.

A few minutes later the two came back together, and Director Zhao pleaded with Qi Xingchen, "Xingchen, your injury is all because of our unfavorable security, now I'll take you to the hospital to get an injection, and all the travel and medical expenses will be borne by the program group."

Qi Xingchen let out a "hmmm" and thought, "So Bai Ye went to negotiate with Director Zhao.

Scandinavian medical conditions are not as good as those in China, and it takes a whole day to get a shot and make a doctor's appointment. With limited time for filming, the show's crew was sure to cut corners wherever they could. If it wasn't for Bai Ye's personal request to Director Zhao, the program would probably just muddle through.

After buying medicine last night, he owed Fake Ai Dou another favor. Qi Xingchen, who is not good at thanking with his mouth, nodded his thanks to Bai Ye.

Bai Ye still has that same bemused expression, holding his arms and raising his chin, "Get in the car, little monkey."
