Chapter 11: The Film Emperor Has a Black-Hearted Vixen Under His Roof

Hearing this, Su Tang’s expression turned blank for a moment, and then her previously joyful face instantly fell, as if a child waiting for praise had suddenly been dealt a blow. Su Tang said in a wronged tone, "Sister Tian, don't you believe me?"

Those around them cast complex looks at Wen Tian. Shen Lü spoke up directly, "What is there to doubt? Just check the recording."

Wen Tian realized what had happened and hurriedly waved her hands, "No, no, that’s not what I meant." She tried to justify herself, "I was just a bit surprised."

Even though Wen Tian tried her best to explain, most discerning people could see that her attitude toward Su Tang was perhaps not as warm or kind as it appeared on the show.

Salted Egg Superman: [Tsk, tsk, tsk, showing her true colors now, aren't we?]

Ultraman: [This Wen Tian is definitely calculating. Don't forget how many followers she gained by riding on Su Tang’s coattails earlier.]

It wasn't just the netizens in the live chat who noticed the issue with Wen Tian’s attitude; even the artists present felt quite surprised. Although Wen Tian tried hard to defend herself, Su Tang’s mood remained visibly depressed.

Ultraman: [Su Tang probably didn't expect that the sister who was always so good to her would have that kind of attitude just now.]

Salted Egg Superman: [Case closed, this Wen Tian is a total two-faced person.]

Wen Tian secretly gritted her teeth, knowing that the current situation was unfavorable for her. She quickly put on her usual kindly smile and walked up to Su Tang.

"Tangtang," she reached out and took Su Tang’s hand, "You know I didn't mean that. I was just worried about you, afraid you wouldn't be able to catch any wild chickens. I was just a bit surprised this time."

Su Tang blinked and looked at Wen Tian earnestly, "Really?"

Wen Tian nodded, "Of course, we have always been good sisters."

As Wen Tian spoke these words, her fans became active in the live chat again.

Tian-Tian’s Darling: [Exactly, our Tian-Tian was just feeling sorry for her earlier.]

Cute Tian: [Our Tian-Tian has always been kind, okay? Don't go around slandering others for no reason?!]

Ultraman: […………Speechless, is this Su Tang actually going to believe her? I can see the exasperation on Shen Lü’s face through the screen.]

Hulala: [This girl seems so straightforward, how is she so easy to fool?]

Salted Egg Superman: [Looking at this green-tea behavior from Wen Tian, I only care about whether she’s really not going to eat lunch.]

The group returned to their small courtyard with their respective ingredients. The production team made another announcement, "Everyone can now process their ingredients, store them, or sell them to the production team."

"However, according to the rules, Ms. Wen Tian will not be able to eat lunch this time," the production team emphasized once more.

Wen Tian’s expression changed slightly, but she immediately smiled indifferently, "I promise I won't eat; I’ll just treat it as dieting."

Cute Tian: [Wuwuwu~ I feel so sorry for Tian-Tian.]

Tian-Tian’s Darling: [Exactly, Tian-Tian is so thin, and she's been working hard all day. How can she go without food?]

Cute Tian: [Exactly! Besides, Shen Lü clearly didn't have enough either. Those in his basket were clearly given to him by Su Tang. Isn't he cheating?]

The resentment of Wen Tian’s fans directly provoked Shen Lü’s fans.

Shen Lü is My Husband: [What do you mean by that? Even if Shen Lü is in last place, our popularity vote is in second place, okay?]

Ultraman: [Exactly! The production team never said we couldn't help each other, did they?]

Hulala: [Who are you blaming for Wen Tian having no one to help her and having a bad reputation? If you’re so capable, why don't you get the popularity vote to first place? Don't be so bitter when you don't have the strength!]

Shen Lü was a top-tier idol, and his popularity votes had even come close to surpassing Song Heqing’s several times. His fans didn't usually speak up often, but once they saw someone bad-mouthing Shen Lü, they weren't people to be trifled with.

Following this, the live chat turned into a counterattack from Shen Lü’s fans, directly leaving Wen Tian’s fans speechless. What was worse, Shen Lü’s fans even dug up Wen Tian’s past scandals and posted them directly in the chat.

In the courtyard and the living room, there were huge screens displaying the real-time comments from netizens. Wen Tian had been stealing glances at the screen, feeling smug, and never expected things to reach this point. Her face changed instantly, and she quickly walked away, pretending not to look at the screen.

Shen Lü and Su Tang walked past the big screen side by side, and upon seeing the comments, they both scoffed. Su Tang didn't look at the chat; this wasn't a good time to be checking it. She had 001 report the live situation to her in her mind.

If there was one thing Su Tang couldn't cook, it would be anything else, but wild chicken—the favorite food of the Fox Clan—was something she was an expert at.

The group discussed it and decided to sell the excess prey and store the rest in the refrigerator. Su Tang kept two chickens, and the others also kept two each; that was enough for them to eat for quite a while. Only Wen Tian sold all of hers. Since everyone had earned some game coins after selling the prey, she decided to sell all of hers as well.

Anyway, the other four people had plenty of food left, and it wouldn't be a problem to eat with them later.

Chang Qinghua clapped his hands, "Alright, let’s start cooking? We’ll have to trouble Chef Song Heqing again."

Yes, surprisingly, the one with the best culinary skills in their group was Song Heqing. Song Heqing was very easygoing; he rolled up his sleeves and began to skillfully process the game, "What do you want to eat for lunch? I’ll make it for you."

The usually cold Shen Lü looked much more human when facing Song Heqing, "Brother Song, you’re so amazing, anything you make is fine."

Chang Qinghua nodded with a smile, "Exactly, we have been completely conquered by your cooking."

Su Tang, however, was not polite at all. She raised her hand excitedly and said, "Brother Song, I want to eat beggar's chicken!!"

Wen Tian smiled, "Tangtang, that would be too much trouble for Brother Lu. Brother Lu has to cook for five people; beggar's chicken takes too much time."

"Ah?" Su Tang blinked in confusion, "Isn't it dinner for four?"

Shen Lü chuckled, "Yeah, isn't it for four people? Is Sister Wen Tian trying to be thick-skinned and eat anyway?"

"This..." Wen Tian smiled awkwardly. She had indeed been planning on that. She had thought that once everyone finished cooking, they would surely offer her a taste out of courtesy, and she had planned to decline at first before joining in. She didn't expect Shen Lü to be so blunt. "I just said it out of habit. I definitely won't violate the production team’s rules."

Shen Lü didn't reply, but he looked at Wen Tian with a strange expression.

Seeing this, Chang Qinghua quickly stepped in to mediate, "Alright, alright, it’s getting late, shall we start?"

Song Heqing, however, furrowed his brows slightly, "I haven't made beggar's chicken before; I need to go check a recipe first."

"In that case, Brother Song, you can start on the other dishes, and I’ll make the beggar's chicken," Su Tang offered.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Su Tang with surprise, especially Wen Tian. She hadn't expected Su Tang to take on this task. She looked at Su Tang with concern, "Tangtang, are you sure? Do you know how to make beggar's chicken?"
