Yang Xu stuffed the slip of paper into the hand of his roommate that was standing next to him and was from the same company as him as if it were a hot potato. “Only two people are sleeping in their dormitory, does anyone here want to go? I don’t want to offend both of them because of the matter of luggage checking,” he lowered his voice and frowned slightly, “I heard that the trainees that offend them will have their screen time cut by the people in charge of editing the footage.”

Xia Dongchan found it funny, “If you don’t go, you won’t get any screen time either.”

Yang Xu wanted to say more, but his roommate from the same company stopped him, “If they want to go, let them go. We’re scared of offending the two of them, but Xia Dongchan isn’t. Isn’t he the only one that Jiang Lian cued in front of the camera besides for Ming Rang?”

Lin Ye was a little surprised, “What cue?”

Xia Dongchan pulled his arm and walked two steps away with him, “There’s a rumor going around that Jiang Lian mentioned my name in his solo recording last time. I don’t know if it’s true or not, but if it’s true, that would be for the best,” he smiled, “If that happened, I’ll be able to gain fans due to him.”

Lin Ye smiled as well but did not say anything.

The other two roommates from the same company as Lin Ye did not have any objections to the matter of having Xia Dongchan and Lin Ye participate in the filming for this segment. They waited for the others to come to their dormitory to do the luggage check before the two of them followed the camera crew to Jiang Lian and Ming Rang’s dormitory.

The corridor was full of the immersion heaters and rice cookers that had been found in the various dormitories. The management staff was even holding a bag of phones and tablets. Xia Dongwei walked over to knock on the door and the person who opened the door was Ming Rang.

(T/N: I’m not super sure it’s an immersion heater, the direct translation is heat fast, if you’re able to check it up, it’s 热得快, and the idea is that it’s an electronic heater that you can stick into liquids to heat it or boil it)

Both of them had personalities that made them able to joke about in front of the camera. Their conversation and interaction attracted the gazes of most of the camera crew behind them.

Jiang Lian sat on the sofa and flipped through a magazine. When he saw the camera crew enter, he put down the magazine and stood up.

The staff shook the big bag of electronic products in his hand and said that in addition to the luggage, the beds also needed to be checked. Xia Dongchan raised his legs and headed towards the upper bunk which Jiang Lian’s name tag was pasted on.

When Ming Rang saw this, he raised his eyebrow and smiled, “Take a guess, which bed is mine and which bed is Jiang Lian’s?

Lin Ye knocked on Ming Rang’s name tag that was pasted on the side of the bed and said, “Isn’t it written here?”

Ming Rang showed a look of confusion, “Are we not allowed to swap beds between roommates? If it’s not allowed, should I have hurried to swap my name tag with Jiang Lian’s before all of you came in?”

Lin Ye stopped moving for a moment. He did not have the habit of touching the beds other people slept on and just pretended to touch around. After that, he retracted his hand and turned around to look at the staff, “There’s nothing on the bed.”

The trainee, who was behind the staff member and had sadly lost his second mobile phone after the inspection cried out as if he was trying to make trouble, “Did you check below his pillow?”

Lin Ye lied without batting an eyelid, “I’ve checked.”

That person was still dissatisfied and pointed at the upper bunk, “Climb up and touch the other side of the pillow. My hidden phone was found from under the other side of my pillow.”

The others also made a ruckus, “Climb up and check!”

At that moment, Lin Ye finally understood what Yang Xu’s words meant. He first looked at Jiang Lian, who was standing at the side and not speaking, from the corner of his eyes. He quietly surmised that there was not much unhappiness on the other’s face before he took off his shoes to step on the staircase and climb up under everyone’s watchful eyes.

When he climbed up the last step, Jiang Lian suddenly took a step forward, opening his eyes to give Lin Ye a look.

Lin Ye was slightly stunned, and he only realized after that Lin Ye was telling him not to climb onto the bed sheets. He stopped raising his legs and stepped directly on the stairs and stretched out his arm to check under the pillow on the bed.

Originally, he did not take it seriously, but unexpectedly, his fingertips touched something thin and hard. Lin Ye’s fingertips hesitated for a moment, he did not know whether he should advance or retreat. Then, he recalled the other’s impolite evaluation of him last night and he made up his mind, stretching out his fingers to grab the thing under the pillow.

The cluttered footsteps got closer to him from behind. Lin Ye held the thing in his palm and turned his gaze sideways slightly. While the questions of the other trainees sounded from behind him, the cameraman was already carrying the camera and walking towards him.

Lin Ye had already started to smile, preparing himself to open his mouth and speak to the camera.

However, there was a sudden tight feeling under his armpit, and slender and powerful arms grabbed onto him, the two arms resting across his chest.

Lin Ye’s grasp loosened.

Jiang Lian carried him down from the stairs like he was holding a child.
