Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Chapter 1304: Chapter 1213: A Shifted Life 6

Because of Shuangshuang’s whims, the evening’s planned scenes of cooking, finding ingredients, and so on, set by Zhang Huijuan, were all dismissed. Helplessly, it was announced that today’s filming had concluded.

With Zhang Huijuan announcing the end of filming for today, all overt cameras were shut off, and covert angles were activated. The participants, unaware, immediately relaxed.

The life assistants began clearing all sorts of trash, as it’s a reality show, the stars participating weren’t allowed to bring personal assistants; everything was looked after by the filming team.

After a day of hustle, Shuangshuang, soaked in sweat, wanted to take a shower. However, there’s no tap water here; villagers use water drawn from distant underground springs stored in vats.

The crew uses large bottles of mineral water purchased in advance. Although it’s a truckload, the many crew members mostly use it for eating and drinking; using it for showers would run short.

Luckily, there’s a big water bucket half the height of a person inside the house, looking like it can hold quite a bit of water.

Shuangshuang directly picked up a bucket and got ready to head out to collect water. Just as she picked up the bucket, a life assistant quickly came over.

”Teacher Wenren, what are you planning to do? If you want water, I can go fetch it for you; no need for you to do it yourself.”

The title ”Teacher Wenren” sounded odd to Shuangshuang. She glanced at the camera clamped onto the assistant’s chest, realizing they were afraid of her moving out of camera range.

”I feel sticky and want to heat some water for a shower. You all have numerous tasks, fetching water is a small thing I can handle myself. You go on with your work, don’t mind me.”

”Just as I also want to fetch some water, how about I help you carry it over at once? You’ve been filming all day, you should rest well.”

The assistant couldn’t allow Shuangshuang to be alone, but seeing Shuangshuang insist on fetching water, they reluctantly agreed to help.

”No need for trouble, I’m idle anyway, I can do it myself. If you also want water, come along with me.” Shuangshuang politely refused, then picked up the bucket and left, with an attitude neither warm nor cold.

The life assistant had no choice but to accompany Shuangshuang to fetch water. As Shuangshuang was leaving the room, she happened to hear Su Jinjiang and Xi Shuang instructing a life assistant to move two buckets of water inside.

A nearby manager was advising them, ”It’s not that I’m unwilling to provide more, but mainly our crew’s water supply isn’t sufficient; one bucket for bathing is enough if used sparingly, two buckets would be wasteful.”

Su Jinjiang grumbled impatiently: ”Your show won’t let me bring my own people, yet you can’t manage our daily necessities properly. I saw a truckload of water before, and two buckets can’t be too much to ask.”

The manager explained with a headache: ”Mr. Su, it’s not about unwillingness, but with so many people and extended filming, these water supplies that appear plenty might not last if not conserved. It’s best to economize.”

Xi Shuang frowned similarly: ”If water runs short, just buy more. Quickly deliver the water to me, I’ll make a call and have two more truckloads sent over.”

Xi Shuang’s words left the manager speechless; truly money talks. Ultimately, they reluctantly provided the requested water to these two individuals.

Nearby, Wang Hanshao saw Shuangshuang heading to fetch water and smiled at Xie WenAn, saying, ”I want to fetch some water too, do you want to join me?”

Being a new star, Xie WenAn wouldn’t put on airs in front of seniors. With Wang Hanshao’s invitation, he promptly nodded: ”Indeed, it’s better not to waste drinking water for bathing.”

Su Jie looked around, wanting two buckets of water for a shower as well, but seeing Shuangshuang heading out herself, she thought for a while and decided to find a bucket to get her own water.

Fortunately, the place to fetch water wasn’t far from where everyone stayed; it took only a three-minute walk to reach a small spring eye, with a pool below collecting water.

Shuangshuang fetched a full bucket of water, intending to pour it into the vat upon returning. However, noticing the vat was slightly dirty, her compulsive tendencies kicked in, washing the vat inside and out, leaving only half a bucket remaining.

This vat was extraordinarily large, and the meager half-bucket of water at the bottom appeared as a thin layer.

Shuangshuang stood in front of the vat, expressionless, eyeing the paltry water within, growing more displeased. The emptiness of the vat was eye-catching.

Puffing her cheeks, Shuangshuang circled around, found a carrying pole, and another bucket, then hooked two buckets onto the pole and went straight to the spring.

After making no less than ten trips, each time fetching full buckets, Shuangshuang finally filled the vat.

Looking at the full vat and two extra buckets, Shuangshuang was satisfied, her face finally breaking into a small smile.

She patted the well-filled vat contentedly, found a lid to cover it, to prevent dust from settling in and rendering it undrinkable.

Shuangshuang fulfilled her hoarding habits, feeling gratified, yet poor life assistants who took turns accompanying her to fetch water just to keep her within camera range suffered.

Shuangshuang went to heat water for a shower, while the life assistants collapsed from exhaustion, wondering where Shuangshuang, looking so delicate and frail, got such energy.

Meanwhile, the bullet chat and comments were filled with amazement.

”I truly sympathize with the life assistants encountering such an industrious star, must be exhausting.”

”No, this isn’t industriousness, but a combination of cleanliness compulsion, obsessive compulsion, and hoarding impulse—won’t rest until the vat is filled. I have the same compulsion.”

”I’ve suddenly grown fond of Shuangshuang, she’s so adorable! Although her face seems cold and aloof, I feel she’s quite expressive. Are my eyes failing?”

”Upstairs, your eyes aren’t failing, I took screenshots: see, here’s Shuangshuang looking at the vat, her cheeks slightly puffed, seeming displeased.

See here, when the vat is filled, look at her lips slightly curled, a bit smug and satisfied.

Though she appears cold, these subtle expressions reveal that Shuangshuang’s inner self is far from aloof.”

”Impressive upstairs, these subtle facial expressions are spot on; luckily you screenshot it, otherwise it’d be overlooked.”

”Does this mean the lady isn’t actually aloof, but just struggles with social interactions, thus appearing aloof?

See, although she rarely talks, she’s quite considerate towards people, taking good care of Miss Xi.

Later, she even cooked delicious meals for the other two groups to share, certainly compassionate seeing them tired, inviting them to dine together.”
