Switched Life:I Went Viral on a Family Variety Show-Chapter 64 Everyone Goes Hungry Together

Chu Wei huffed and puffed as she lugged a basket of yellow peaches onto the pickup truck, then took the chance to pull Sang Ning aside.

"I just looked it up online, what you said was wrong—see for yourself," Chu Wei said, grabbing a phone from the cameraman and showing her a screenshot.

But Sang Ning only glanced at it briefly before casually replying, "Alright, alright, I admit you’re absolutely right. Happy now?"

After speaking, she walked back to the pickup truck, continuing to help the others load the yellow peaches onto it.

[Sang Ning’s nonchalant response is way too obvious. At least pretend to look at it more seriously!]

[The screenshot says the same thing Sang Ning did; no matter how many times you look at it, it’s the same—what’s the point?]

[Honestly, Sang Ning showed so much grace by not pointing out Chu Wei’s mistake in front of everyone and embarrassing her. That level of tact? I’m officially a fan now.]

"Hey, hold on—are you genuinely admitting defeat here?" Chu Wei shouted at Sang Ning, clutching her phone.

Sang Ning placed her right hand over her left chest solemnly and nodded earnestly. "Absolutely—truer than gold."

Sang Ning felt there was no point in explaining herself to someone as carefree as Chu Wei. As long as Chu Wei was happy, that was enough.

"Hmph~" Chu Wei tilted her chin up, flashing a somewhat triumphant smile. "See? My title as class biology representative wasn’t just for show."

As Sang Ning buried her head in work without sparing her another word, Chu Wei suddenly found the entire exchange unfulfilling. She didn’t feel victorious at all.

Probably because Sang Ning had been so dismissive when glancing at her phone. Thinking it over, Chu Wei decided that if Sang Ning wouldn’t take a proper look, she’d simply read the content to her instead.

She lowered her head to the phone and began reading aloud, word by word: "The centrosome is an organelle present in animal cells and cells of lower plants—"

Midway through, Chu Wei’s voice grew quieter and quieter until it faded entirely.

This doesn’t match the knowledge she remembers! She distinctly recalls that higher plants also have organelles!

Kill me—how could she forget such a basic fact? What kind of face does she have left to claim she used to be the high school biology representative?

"Forget it, there’s no point debating right and wrong. I’m not going to make things awkward for Sang Ning," Chu Wei muttered as she shoved the phone back to the cameraman, stubbornly clinging to the last shred of her dignity.

[Chu Wei must be part duck—the stubbornness is unreal.]

[She just recently finished the college entrance exams but has already returned all the knowledge to her teachers, yet she has the nerve to call herself the high school biology rep.]

[Once again, major respect for Sang Ning! She graduated college this year and hasn’t touched high school biology for years yet remembers it all perfectly. How is that kind of memory even possible? Insane!]

Chu Wei glanced up at Sang Ning and saw her still buried in work. Taking the chance, she snuck away.

If Sang Ning mocked her publicly, the embarrassment would be unbearable!

The other guests gradually finished loading the peaches they’d picked onto the truck, and Director Sun started to panic.

It wasn’t even noon yet, and the guests were already collectively slacking off. What could he possibly film for the rest of the day?

To avoid wrapping up today’s shoot prematurely, Director Sun decided to change the rules on the spot, grabbing a megaphone to address the guests.

"Since you’ve all decided to slack off together, you’ll also bear the consequences together. Starting today, you’ll have to earn your own money to pay for all three meals. Chu Xi, Chu Wei, and Qin Kai’s families will no longer enjoy free meals provided by the host families."

As soon as he said this, the guests paused their peach-loading and collectively turned to look at him. Was he messing with them?

Director Sun snorted coldly, feeling satisfied, then added, "Moreover, you’ll have to pay back the show for what you already owe before using the extra money to buy ingredients."

"Director Sun, you’re deliberately starving us, aren’t you?" Qin Jiaxiang protested.

The other guests looked equally displeased, while Li Sulan clapped her hands enthusiastically.

"Serves you right! Who told you to slack off along with Sang Ning? Now look—everyone’s going hungry!"

"Exactly! Mrs. Chu is completely right!" Director Sun quickly agreed with Li Sulan. "Only diligent little bees deserve to eat. So here’s the deal: forget about the debts for now. As long as you complete today’s task of picking 400 pounds of yellow peaches, the show will provide your ingredients for free!"

The guests all began grumbling and swearing. It was now clear that earning money to buy food wouldn’t work, but picking 400 pounds of peaches seemed doable.

Satisfying their hunger was priority number one! freewёbnoνel.com

"Director Sun, no trickery—you absolutely have to feed us if our group picks 400 pounds today!" Chu Wei, clearly mistrustful of Director Sun’s integrity, pressed him for confirmation.

Luckily, their group had Shen Yi. As long as Director Sun didn’t set a time limit, picking 400 pounds today wouldn’t be a problem.

"I swear on it!" Director Sun confidently assured Chu Wei, thumping his chest.

[Chu Wei’s way too naive to believe anything that comes out of Director Sun’s mouth.]

[What choice does she have? Sang Ning started the whole back-and-forth; Director Sun’s just retaliating.]

[Honestly, Sang Ning is such a troublemaker. Why not just work properly? She thinks driving a pickup truck makes her something special? Hate to break it to her—even if she drove the peaches into town, there’s no guarantee she could sell them. Does she really think running a business is that simple?]

The guests grumbled about Director Sun for a good while, then reluctantly returned to the orchard to continue picking peaches.

Sang Ning had just finished loading a basket of peaches onto the truck when she headed back to the orchard, only to be intercepted by Director Sun.

"Mr. Sang, hold up—your right to work has just been revoked."

Director Sun raised an eyebrow and continued, "Weren’t you planning to drive into town to sell yellow peaches? Then I’m assigning you to investigate the local market and help everyone open up a sales channel."

He wanted Sang Ning to experience the harsh realities of society first-hand. Once she returned with no money earned, she’d be begging to return to the orchard.

"Very well. Don’t worry—I’ll do my best to avoid disappointing you," Sang Ning replied before walking away calmly.

Director Sun was confused. Wasn’t she just returning to pick peaches?

Watching her movement closely, Director Sun noticed Sang Ning walk over to the scales and pick up two baskets of peaches before heading back.

As she passed Director Sun, she remarked leisurely, "Peaches loaded—heading out now."

Director Sun: ?! He had assumed she was coming back to work.

Fine! Since Sang Ning was still refusing to fall in line, he could only hope she wouldn’t manage to sell a single peach today, completely crushing her ego!

Sang Ning drove the pickup truck out of the orchard, while Li Sulan called over Chu Xi to join her in full-on slacking. She self-righteously declared to Hu Zhi, "Sang Ning’s off being lazy, so why should we bother working? The 320 pounds of yellow peaches we’re short can just be picked by you and your son!"

"As if you’ve picked so much yourselves! If you’re not moving, why should I?" Hu Zhi retorted, plopping down right next to Li Sulan.

After all, Sang Ning had said her group could pick peaches if they wanted to, or not pick if they didn’t—a guarantee that they wouldn’t go hungry.

Hu Zhi outright refused to let Li Sulan get her way!
