A Favor Done, A Husband Won

Chapter 670 - 664: Sweet Extra - Couples’ Variety Show 149

"So what’s the plan for tonight’s unexpected situation? Are we going to keep filming, or is everyone free to do whatever, with the cameras rolling?" Xv Qingqing asked.Mr. He thought for a moment and decided, "We’ll film it. Sometimes unexpected situations can really pique the audience’s curiosity."

Hao Jin chuckled immediately, "Mr. He, wasn’t this arrangement made on the fly?"

Mr. He shot him a glance, "If it was an impromptu setup, would we have let the other staff and equipment leave on the first boat? Now we’ve realized that our camera gear isn’t here. It’s just me and the assistant cameraman, along with you guests staying here tonight. The camera we’re holding will last for about two hours at most, so let’s record what we can and edit it later."

Jing Jihan picked up on the key part, "No generator?"

Mr. He looked apologetically at Jing Jihan and sighed, "Yes, our group’s generator was also on the first boat."

Shi Su glanced around and said, "So the island won’t have any lights tonight then?"

"Even charging our phones isn’t guaranteed," Meng Li sighed along.

Luo Fang laughed, "Is this a program shoot or a real deserted island survival night? Didn’t they say the tourist area on this side of the island is separated? It’s just a few hours; going back to the tourist area would be a hassle. So during this wait, we’ll just be in the cave, fumbling in the dark."

"It’s not that bad, just a couple of hours. Everyone’s phone is fully charged, so we can take turns using our phone lights," Xv Qingqing said. "Besides, we’ve been together for so many days; it won’t be difficult to get through one night."

"Whatever works is fine, but everyone needs to eat at night. We can’t go hungry. I have some biscuits and milk in my bag. Let’s share them later," Fang Lihua offered as she took out her bag.

"No need, Auntie Lihua. The pot we used earlier is still here; we can make it through a meal. I brought a lighter, so we just need to gather some firewood later," Hao Jin finally got to show off the lighter he had been hiding in his pocket every day.

But as soon as he took it out, Mr. He gave him a direct stare, and Hao Jin grinned mischievously as he put it back in his pocket.

"Alright then, apologies to everyone. Let’s go with this plan. If the boat arrives sooner, we can leave early," Mr. He said, turning to the assistant cameraman, "Record whenever there’s a chance. Turn off the camera when you can to save power. It would be a shame to miss out on any excitement tonight."

The assistant cameraman nodded repeatedly.

The evening passed quickly without the boat’s arrival, so everyone simply packed their things and headed back to the cave.

Luckily, the cave was already clean and ready for use, so they laid out some simple bedding and sleeping bags for rest.

The female guests sorted through their bags to get food and drinks, while Luo Fang, having nothing to do, made another trip to the beach to dig up some shellfish for soup.

They all made do with a simple meal together until it got completely dark, and there really were no lights outside.

Liu Guochun took out a deck of cards, mentioning it was a game for elderly people to pass the time, so he occasionally carried them around but hadn’t had a chance to play yet.

Hao Jin immediately turned on his phone’s flashlight and suggested playing ’Fight the Landlord.’

He turned to invite Jing Jihan, "Come on, Mr. Jing, let’s play ’Fight the Landlord.’ We may not beat you at basketball, but maybe we can win a round in cards?"
