Chapter 25: Courage to be first!

Everyone froze.

Because I didn't expect Pei Xu to lie down for the first time.

A lot of people thought it was going to be two against one between him and Huo Cheng.

Lin Qingning was surprised.

Because Pei Xu's sit-ups have been really easy so far.

He helped him to press his legs, and he knows Pei Xu's condition the best. Pei Xu maintains the same speed from the beginning to the end, without even the slightest sign of slowing down, and there is no sign of any strain at all.

Looks like Pei Xu did it on purpose.

Lin Qingning is not the only one who thinks so, but others as well.

Hu Ying said to the crew, "Pei Xu is down."

Duan Yihua and Wen Nuo both glance toward Pei Xu.

Huo Cheng and Yan Zhi also glanced at him.

Pei Xu has sat up, patting the sand from the back of her neck.

However, Huo Cheng and the others thought that Pei Xu gave up early because he had no intention of competing for first place.

He was not interested in all the guests at the Red and Blue Lodge.

He just wasn't interested in a relationship.

This is very much in line with Pei Xu's style.

Pei Xu was the first to lose, but he didn't show any frustration or embarrassment, he stood up from the ground, and turned his head to look at Di Xingchen next to him.

Once Pei Xu was down, Di Xingchen's initial idea prevailed.

He'll either be the first to go down and give the penultimate place a leg up, or he'll hang on until the end.

Now that Pei Xu is down, he doesn't want to give Pei Xu the impression that he's not even as good as him.

He looked to Yan Zhi and Huo Cheng , pursing his lips and concentrating.

In fact, many people here have overlooked his ability. He was the one who learned to dance, and it was no exaggeration to say that he was the one who trained the most and had the best physical fitness out of the eight. They dance students were really in the midst of high-intensity training every day, and especially for the final exams this month, he had kept up with the hard training for several hours almost every day. Sit-ups are one of the basic training for him.

The program team handed Pei Xu a bottle of water, Pei Xu unscrewed the lid and drank a couple of sips, then turned his head to look at Di Xingchen, the white light shone on his sweaty face, blowing his black hair, which made him look more and more fair and handsome.

Seeing Di Xingchen not showing any signs of stopping, Pei Xu was a bit surprised.

The race continues, and after two hundred, Yan Zhi and Huo Cheng are slowly slowing down.

"Two hundred and one, two hundred and two ......"

As he did so, Huo Cheng looked in amazement at Di Xingchen in the distance and grinned.

He didn't think Di Xingchen was that strong.

Not only him, everyone didn't expect Di Xingchen to be that strong.

In fact, in terms of durability and physical strength alone, Di Xingchen might not be a match for Huo Cheng and Yan Zhi, and he might not be able to win if all three of them played to their limits.

But he was more able to suffer and endure pain than anyone else.

Huo Cheng was the first to lie down on the ground, he laughed and gasped a few times, twisting his head to look at Yan Zhi and Di Xingchen.

Yan Zhi was already sweating profusely, his neck and face were all red, and when he leaned back, his entire upper body was shaking, obviously at its limit.

Di Xingchen looks a little worse for wear.

In the end, everyone looked at Yan Zhi and Di Xingchen.

Yan Zhi turned his head to look at Di Xingchen, and saw that Di Xingchen had already closed his eyes, closed his eyes, and clenched his teeth.

It's a big deal to not stop until you get first place.

He's working so hard to take first place and then ask his favorite person on a date, right?

Hu Ying, or Tuan Yihua.

They all underestimated Di Xingchen, they thought he was a little white flower that needed their attention, but he was actually more resilient than anyone else.

Yan Zhi didn't want Di Xingchen to get what he wanted, and he didn't want it to end up as a rivalry between him and Di Xingchen.

Wrapped up in mixed emotions, Yan Zhi lost his strength and collapsed on the beach.

"Two hundred and forty-nine!" Wen Nuo shouted.

They all turned their heads to look at Di Xingchen. Hu Ying pressed Di Xingchen's leg, because he was too surprised and even a little moved, his eyes were so bright, gazing at Di Xingchen without moving, it looked like an illusion of deep love.

"Two hundred and forty-one, come on Star, do nine more and you win."

Di Xingchen closed his eyes, his thin lips pursed tightly.

This is Di Xingchen as they've never seen him before.

Or even Di Xingchen, which they never thought they'd have.

Duan Yihua, Wen Nuo, and Lin Qingning were all surprised by such Di Xingchen.

Every move he made was tough, and his mind was actually free of the distraction of why he wanted to take first place, completely pure, belonging to a man's fighting spirit of competitiveness, and the sense of fervor that comes with competitive sports.

"Two hundred and forty-nine!" Hu Ying shouted in excitement.

Di Xingchen suddenly opened his eyes, and his body trembled as he leaned upward, finally holding his breath and bending forward all at once.

Hu Ying hugged him, "Two hundred and fifty percent!"

Di Xingchen grinned, slumped over Hu Ying's shoulder, and gasped, "God damn two hundred and five, I'm going to make another one."

Hu Ying laughed out loud, "You don't care if it sounds good or not, a win is a win!"

Pei Xu, who had been watching from the side, laughed softly at this, but he had been too keen and defensive for the camera since he was a child, and when he realized that the cameraman was filming him in close-up, the smile at the corner of his lips faded again.

But the sea breeze couldn't quench the fire in his heart.

He was happier than if he had taken first place.

Di Xingchen took first place, which no one expected.

Including the program team.

But it wasn't easy for him to take this first place, he took it completely on his own, and everyone was convinced.

Wen Nuo was happier than anyone else, he wanted to move closer to Di Xingchen, but felt that he couldn't, so he stood next to him and gently clapped his hands.

Everyone then clapped along.

Hu Ying pulled Di Xingchen up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Your abs are all tired out."

Di Xingchen rolled up his T-shirt at that, and the crowd looked up to his belly, and saw that his lean and reddened belly had a beautifully defined, watery line of visible muscle emerging from it.

The Di Xingchen, still reeling from the excitement of the exercise, raised an eyebrow in triumph.

Cool and offensive.

Lin Qingning also gave a soft "wow". Tuan Yihua and Wen Nuo are not quite bold enough to look directly in front of the camera, ducking and glancing again.

"Everyone is going to be impressed with Star today."

"The Big Flip!"

"Did you film everyone's facial expressions just now?" Guo Bing said, "Cut me out every single change in expression!"

The crew brought towels and water, and Hu Ying herself went to Di Xingchen to clean him.

Di Xingchen took two sips of water and slowed down for a while.

"You guys find us some masseuses." Pei Xu told the crew, "It's been hard enough for everyone today."

Suddenly doing so many sit-ups, regardless of their usual physical fitness, was enough to put them through. On the way back, Di Xingchen was holding his waist.

Hu Ying has been surrounding him, chattering away.

Because he had sweated a lot, the sea breeze blew onto his body and made him a bit cold. As they walked towards the red and blue huts, Yan Zhi looked at Di Xingchen's back, and then at Hu Ying, who was beside him with great joy, and suddenly felt a great sense of loss. He noticed that someone tapped his shoulder, and when he turned around, it was Huo Cheng.

Lin Qingning turned his head to look at Pei Xu beside him and said, "I thought you'd take first place."

Pei Xu said, "Zhai is here, I can't take it."

Lin Qingning said from the bottom of her heart, "Star is really too good today."

Hu Ying smiled back at her words, then said loudly, "Star is really bullish today, MAN exploded, if I can send a heartfelt text message today, I'll definitely send it to you!"

Di Xingchen said, "It's not too late for you to save the last day to send me."

Hu Ying walked backwards while saying, "Then you're asking me on a date tomorrow."

Taking first place means taking tomorrow night's date.

The crew let him pick his own.

"There's no rush, just tell us your answer before you go to bed."

"Do any of you have back problems?" Near the Red and Blue Lodge, the director asked, "Do we need to get you some massage therapists or not?"

The guests' backs are important, they all didn't expect today's game to be so intense, so don't really get tired.

Di Xingchen raises her hand, "I think I might need to. I literally broke my back trying to get first place."

It's time to show some weakness and set off the straight-backed men.

"What kind of massage master are you looking for," Huo Cheng suddenly opened his mouth, "You have back pain? I'll give you a massage."

Guo Bing froze, "You?"

Then it was a slight smile, with a rather meaningful gaze, and asked, "You know how to massage?"

"In the past, my parents were often unwell, and I specialized in getting massages from the old Chinese medicine practitioners in our area."

Huo Cheng said, "If you don't believe me, you can take a look."

"That's fine." Guo Bing then smiled and said to Di Xingchen, "You give Huo Cheng a chance to show off."

It's a picture they'd love to see.

Yan Zhi pursed her lips a bit and said, "I also have back pain. Does Huo press them all?"

Huo Cheng looked at Yan Zhi, to smile but not to laugh, the feeling of sympathy that he had just felt all of a sudden dissipated.

Just then, Pei Xu suddenly spoke up, "It's better to find a few professional massage masters, so that everyone can be pressed. The program group is not so stingy."

Yan Zhi and Huo Cheng all looked towards Pei Xu when they heard this.

Pei Xu spoke up at this time, and they were both surprised.

Pei Xu certainly didn't do it in solidarity with Yan Zhi.

He knows what Huo Cheng is thinking.

But Huo Cheng really didn't want to take advantage of the situation. With the camera rolling and so many people, he wouldn't do such a thing even if he was on fire.

He just wanted to have more contact with Di Xingchen.

He is really good at massaging, and the strength of the average massage master's hands can't even compare to his.

Guo Bing couldn't make a decision for a while and threw the problem to Di Xingchen: "What do you think?"

Di Xingchen said, "Then it's better to be called Master."

We can't let Huo Cheng press everyone all over again.

Huo Cheng stuck his hands into his pants pockets and didn't say anything else. He turned his head to look at Pei Xu, thinking that Pei Xu had said that he knew a little bit about the emotional state of the Red and Blue Hut, but he didn't know shit.

You don't know how to assist your big brother.

The crew then literally got them a couple of massage therapists to come in, three men and one woman.

This time the three were very silent.

One of them chose a male master.

Leave the female master to Di Xingchen.

Screenwriter Liu commented, "Men are really all like this, super wacky and possessive."

But I didn't realize that of the four professional masters, that female master had the strongest hands.

Di Xingchen is grunting from the pressure.

That's what a massage feels like, it hurts and feels good and tickles a little.

It feels natural to hum it out.

Humming next to the three men's ears are red, a dare to say anything are not, all honestly lying there.

"Turn over." The Master said, "Press the front."

"...... No need." Huo Cheng said softly, so gangly a person, voice for the first time so gentle.

He doesn't use it, and neither do Pei Xu or Yan Zhi.

Guo Bing They looked at a couple of people on camera and stifled into a fit of giggles.
