Just as Lu Zhen and Yang Nuo were sitting at the table eating snacks and chatting casually, Lei Ming and Ah Pan were also making the best use of their time to prepare lunch in the kitchen.
Ah Pan looked at Lei Ming excitedly and said in Country Z, “Lu Zhen is even more beautiful than on television. When she smiled at me, I almost fainted!”
Lei Ming smiled faintly. “Forget it. Every time a beautiful female guest comes, you say that. Where’s the fish I asked you to kill?”
Ah Pan slapped his head. “I’ll go kill the fish now.” With the cleaver in hand, Ah Pan went to the water pipe in the courtyard. Beside the pipe was a wooden basin in which two fat fish swam.
Ah Pan grabbed a fish and prepared to start killing it.
Lu Zhen and Yang Na watched from afar. Yang Na said, “I’ve seen the first two seasons of this show. When Ah Pan first participated in the show. he didn’t know how to do anything. But now, he actually knows how to kill fish and chickens.’
Lu Zhen nodded. “The production team invited Ah Pan over. The audience will watch him slowly learn one thing after another. It should be a pleasure.”
Although Ah Pan knew how to kill fish, he was not particularly skilled. After killing a fish, his apron became dirty.
Ah Pan sent the sliced fish into the kitchen, and at that moment there was a sound at the door. A man who looked no older than forty and a young girl came into the house.
The man was not very tall and looked like an intellectual. When he saw Lu Zhen and Yang Na, his eyes lit up and he shouted, “Welcome to our house. Ah
Pan, stop cooking. Leave it to Lei Ming. Go and take out your guitar!”
The man’s name was Ji Lai, and he was a famous entertainment emcee of Southern Television Station. He hosted many classic variety shows.
Three years ago, he accepted the variety show Welcome to My Home and became the core figure of this variety show.
As soon as Ji Lai appeared, the atmosphere immediately became lively. Lu Zhen could feel that Ji Lai did this to let her and Yang Na quickly get familiar with the permanent guests.
The girl standing behind Ji Lai was holding a basket with pine eggs wrapped in red mud.
The girl’s name was Lin Mo. She was a few months older than Lu Zhen and had also debuted as a child star. She started filming at the age of 14. At the age of 17, she officially took on the role of the female lead. The art film she starred in was well received. At the age of 18, she went to all the major film festivals in the country and was nominated for many awards. She was a dazzling new star in the film industry.
Lin MO seemed to be more introverted. She nodded slightly at Lu Zhen and Yang Na, then carried the basket into the kitchen. When Lei Ming saw Lin MO return, he said, ‘I l don’t need your help in the kitchen. Go play with them.”
Lin MO shook her head slowly. “I’ll help you with the fire. There’s nothing fun about it.’
Lei Ming glanced at the camera and said helplessly, “Just bring a plate of melon seeds and sit there to eat them. You don’t have to do anything. This is the first time a guest is here, so you have to be more enthusiastic. Go.”
Lei Ming knew that Lin MO had a cold personality. At first, the audience had complained about this, but as time passed, the audience got used to it.
After all, Lei Ming, Ji Lai, and Ah Pan were quite talkative. It was fine for Lin Nio to be the background.
Lin MO sighed and obediently picked up a plate of melon seeds and walked out of the kitchen.
Yang Na and Lu Zhen saw Lin MO sitting on a chair not far away and starting to eat melon seeds quietly.
On the other side, Ah Pan had already taken out his guitar and was looking at
Ji Lai excitedly. “What song should I sing? Welcome to the Hut?”
Welcome to the Hut is an improvised song by Ah Pan from Season 2. The original song is a well-received opening song for the Games. He has adapted it to R&B style and sounds more relaxed and cheerful.
Later, the song became a must on every episode of the show, and after the guests came to the cottage, Ah Pam offered it as a welcome.
Ji Lai said without hesitation, “Of course, let’s begin your performance!”
Ah Pan had already sung this welcoming tune countless times, but every time he sang it, it was as passionate as the first time.
Ah Pan strummed the guitar strings, and a melodious and playful melody echoed in the air. The sunlight shone on the courtyard, making it very warm and bright. Lu Zhen and Yang Na were also infected by Ah Pan’s singing and took the initiative to play along.
After the song ended, Ji Lai, Lu Zhen, and Yang Na applauded warmly..
