With a budget of one hundred yuan, the other guests split it in half, teaming up separately to buy ingredients.
Murong Yan also took fifty.
Jiang Lai walked forward, didnāt say a word, arranged the ingredients, and then picked up his phone, adjusted the angle, and casually took a photo featuring himself, all the ingredients, and Murong Yan standing not too far away.
[Hahaha, he really doesnāt care about the Domineering Presidentās well-being at all]
[Is this treating Murong Yan as a background prop?]
[A useless man and my charming, capable husband, what a perfect pair this makes]
[The Domineering President is really useless, it reminds me of how he doesnāt even know how to use a kettle. Itās really hard to find another person like him whoās so incapable in real life]
[Who can relate? Clumsy Dominating President VS Capable Female Star, am I the last to know Jiang Lai is a talent under the Domineering President?]
Jiang Lai took a few photos "click-click" and then directly uploaded them.
"Jiang Lai, Murong Yan, task complete."
When the director announced task completion over the speaker, the person involved, Murong Yan, remained clueless.
He turned his head in confusion to see Jiang Lai walking over with large bags of ingredients and without a word, threw them into his arms.
"What are you looking at? Are you too weak to carry things?"
Murong Yan looked at the full hands of stuff and Jiang Laiās sun-reddened cheeks. Despite feeling irritated, he didnāt show much of it.
"How did you get done so fast?"
Even Shang Qingrao had only bought part of her things, and she was riding an electric bike, while Jiang Lai on a bicycle not only caught up but did it so quickly.
Jiang Lai ignored him, directly took the water beside him, twisted it open, and drank heartily.
Seeing this, Murong Yan frowned in dissatisfaction.
"Canāt you just buy another bottle yourself?"
Jiang Lai glanced at him sideways.
"Whereās the money?"
"..."
Watching Jiang Lai gulping down the water, Murong Yan inexplicably felt a bit guilty, though parched himself, he didnāt get mad but instead, took the initiative to push up the bicycle beside him.
Shang Qingrao, witnessing this scene, the always confident her, suddenly sensed a bit of crisis.
After all, she has a system.
From the system, she knows how close Jiang Lai and Murong Yanās relationship used to be.
Though she now believes that Murong Yan likes her, sheās not sure that under Jiang Laiās temptation, this man wonāt go soft-hearted.
So Shang Qingrao stepped forward directly.
"Are the things so heavy? Let me help you with some."
Murong Yan shook his head.
"Youāve got plenty of stuff in your hands too, besides, these arenāt heavy to carry."
[Qingqing is really so considerate]
[Something feels odd, they arenāt even in the same group, why are they always hanging out together]
[Is there a problem with them liking each other? Plus, whoās unaware of Jiang Laiās intentions towards the Domineering President?]
Jiang Lai followed behind them with the mineral water.
Occasionally glancing left and right, then looking down at the card in his hand.
Knowing the plot beforehand, Jiang Lai knew the purpose of this card.
Understanding the directorās quirks, the other guests were also focusing on their cards, though they didnāt know what the reward was, they were sure it was something good.
"Found it, the positions of the ten cards are marked, letās set off."
Little Buding spoke with a hint of excitement, finally being of use again.
Jiang Lai looked at the position on the first card.
"Letās go."
The bicycle was still in Murong Yanās hand, and he was chatting and laughing with Shang Qingrao when Jiang Lai directly walked up to him.
"Give me the bike."
"What for? Youāre riding back again?"
Murong Yan thought about how he walked all the way here, so he gripped the bikeās handle tightly.
He didnāt want to walk back all exhausted alone again.
Not wanting the two to engage too much, Shang Qingrao suggested from the side.
"How about this, Jiang Lai, you go back with Weiwei on the electric scooter, I still have some groceries left to buy, anyway, Iām not in a hurry to return."
[Right, if Jiang Lai wants to go back, just ride the electric scooter, itās faster]
[Hahaha Qingqing must be jealous!]
[Qingqing: My husband is mine!]
[I canāt stand it anymore, Jiang Lai and the Domineering President are the real pair, if Shang Qingrao is so domineering, just announce the relationship, and step out!]
[Why step out? The love variety show is about dating, why should she step out?]
Shang Qingrao smiled harmlessly.
Murong Yan also found it reasonable.
"Gao Yanweiās electric scooter is just beside, Iāll go with you to buy the remaining groceries."
"I need the bike, and besides, if you donāt do the task with me now, the final reward will be mine alone."
Murong Yan found it amusing.
"How much time is left? The task time is about to end."
"Boss Murongās concept of time is quite different from normal folk; ten minutes means almost nothing to you.
However, these ten minutes are really significant for regular workers like us.
The bike was brought by me, if you want to enjoy the fun of riding together, see over there? Thereās a tricycle."
After saying that, Jiang Lai directly pulled the bike over, didnāt say more, got on and pedaled away rapidly.
[Why does Jiang Lai always manage to disrupt othersā atmosphere?]
[Some people are just excessively blind, theyāre trying to date, donāt delay others from doing their tasks!]
[Resonate with Jiang Laiās words, rich people must really have more time than us common folks. To survive, we canāt slack off for even a second]
[Why does someone like the Domineering President even join a love variety show? Itās just uncomfortable to watch]
Watching Jiang Laiās departing figure, Shang Qingrao sighed helplessly.
"Iāll buy the remaining groceries myself, you go do the task with her."
Murong Yan naturally shook his head in refusal.
"Iāll stay with you; sheās already completed her task, if you donāt get back by lunchtime, it could be a problem again."
Jiang Lai didnāt waste words, followed Little Budingās guidance, pedaled freely on the bike, the position on the first card was quickly reached, Jiang Lai swiftly got the flag, and immediately moved on to the next point without delay.
In the remaining ten minutes, Jiang Lai found and marked eight places in total, taking eight small flags.
[What kind of bike warrior is this, is she not getting tired at all?]
[Seriously impressed with Jiang Laiās stamina, truly impressed]
[Didnāt you notice, her heart rate hasnāt changed at all?]
Despite nearly an hour of continuous cycling, Jiang Laiās heart rate remained below one hundred, a normal person would surpass that after a few steps, yet under the blazing sun, Jiang Lai sped around for tens of minutes with an utterly steady heart rate.
[Thereās something off with Jiang Lai, maybe the relevant departments should check it out]
