When they returned home after eating their fill, they saw Liang Qi waiting for them with a longing gaze.
Although they had sent him a message earlier saying they would be back late, coming back after dark was indeed a bit too much.
"You guys... you know your punishment for today isn't over yet." Liang Qi had just started speaking when he saw Lu Yiwei's warning, and he abruptly changed his words.
He couldn't afford to offend his sugar daddy. However, he wasn't completely helpless against Lu Yiwei, his sugar daddy.
At this point, if he was still narcissistic enough to think that Lu Yiwei had joined this show because of him, then he might as well quit the entertainment industry.
As soon as Mu Zhengqing heard that the punishment wasn't over, without being urged by Liang Qi, he turned on the camera himself.
After turning on the camera, Mu Zhengqing took out his phone and started reading the content Gu Da had sent him.
Mu Zhengqing: "You have a devilish figure, an angelic face, and you're the coolest guy on Earth."
Lu Yiwei: "You're the brightest guy in the universe."
Mu Zhengqing: "You're both eloquent and capable, obviously the number one."
Lu Yiwei: "You're my top 1."
Liang Qi listened to the two of them engage in mutual flattery for over half an hour.
He had been taking care of Mulu for most of the day and just wanted to go home and rest.
If you asked why he was personally taking care of Mulu instead of just finding someone else, it was because Mulu was now the rising star of their show, his popularity surpassing even Mu Zhengqing and Lu Yiwei, and he didn't trust anyone else to look after him.
"Why are you still here?" after cooperating with Mu Zhengqing to complete the punishment, Lu Yiwei saw that Liang Qi was still there, and said with dissatisfaction.
"I..."
"You two chat, I'll go check on Mulu," Liang Qi was just about to explain why he hadn't left when he was interrupted by Mu Zhengqing.
Looking at Mu Zhengqing's departing figure, Lu Yiwei immediately realised his reason for doing so. He still thought Lu Yiwei liked Liang Qi. No, I have to take this opportunity to settle this matter.
"Tomorrow is the last day of you two living alone. There will be no more tasks or punishments, so if there's nothing else I'll be going now." Liang Qi said, as he was about to leave.
The reason he stayed behind to specifically say this was also due to his own doing.
Because of today's hidden mission, the guests directly lost trust in the program team, and they insisted that he come and announce that there would really be no tasks or punishments tomorrow before they believed it.
"Wait, don't go yet." Lu Yiwei called out to Liang Qi who was about to leave.
Liang Qi looked at Lu Yiwei with a bit of confusion, wasn't the person who wanted him to disappear on the spot just now, him? How come now that he was about to leave, he didn't want him to go.
"There's something I need you..."
"Baby, don't come over yet..."
Before Lu Yiwei could finish his sentence, he heard Mu Zhengqing's voice coming from the room. He immediately got up to find Mu Zhengqing, and Liang Qi quickly followed.
When Liang Qi walked to the door, he saw Mu Zhengqing hiding behind Lu Yiwei, while in front of Lu Yiwei was their show's new top star - Mulu.
"Are you scared of it?" Lu Yiwei asked worriedly, standing in front of Mu Zhengqing.
He thought Mu Zhengqing was afraid that Mulu would scratch him again, so he was hiding from it.
"No, it's just that it smells so bad, and it insists on me holding it." Mu Zhengqing said, hiding behind Lu Yiwei.
He saw Mulu next to the litter box, and was about to go over and hold it, but he smelled a very unpleasant odour first.
Mulu ran towards him as soon as it saw him, and thinking of the smell just now, Mu Zhengqing shouted and dodged.
"It's okay, Mulu doesn't smell, don't you believe me, smell it," after hearing Mu Zhengqing's words, Lu Yiwei bent down and held Mulu in front of him.
Mu Zhengqing lowered his head and sniffed, and found that it didn't smell at all, and happily took Mulu over. He didn't know if his behaviour just now hurt Mulu's feelings, no matter how much he apologised, it ignored him.
"You go out first, I'll clean up here."
Mu Zhengqing walked out with Mulu, leaving Lu Yiwei to clean the litter box.
"It's not easy to find someone as good as Lu Yingdi(1) these days," Liang Qi said this based on the idea that helping his sugar daddy was helping himself.
"It's indeed hard to find, so you should cherish him." Mu Zhengqing replied.
"Cherish what?" Liang Qi asked, confused.
Hearing Liang Qi ask like that, Mu Zhengqing glanced at the camera with a knowing expression.
Liang Qi was even more confused when he saw him like that, but because he was live-streaming, he didn't ask any more questions.
The netizens in the live chat room were also very confused about their conversation. What should Liang Qi cherish? Why should Liang Qi cherish him? Did they miss something?
However, their attention was quickly diverted, and the cat owners in the live chat room started to send bullet comments saying that Mu Zhengqing's reaction just now was exactly like them.
However, when they realised the problem was with the cat litter, they could only hold their noses and change it, unlike Mu Zhengqing who was lucky enough to have someone else do it for him.
