    Chapter 53: CEO Male Supporting Character

    However, before he could fully exhale, the person who had already gone up the spiral staircase suddenly glanced down, their gaze falling directly on Xiao Wen.

    Yan Ye’s single glance sent a shiver down Xiao Wen’s spine, sweat breaking out on his forehead.

    The Director thought he was also uncomfortable and asked with concern, “Are you uncomfortable too? Do you want to go up and rest?”

    How could Xiao Wen dare to go up at this time? He stiffly replied, “No need, I’m not uncomfortable. Isn’t the live broadcast starting? Do I need to interact with the audience?”

    His words hit the Director’s sweet spot. The Director was just worrying that if all the guests went to rest, wouldn’t the flow of traffic in the live stream disappear?

    Seeing this, he nodded with satisfaction, putting away his earlier feigned concern, and let Xiao Wen come over to look at the comments in the live stream and interact with the netizens.

    The netizens had many questions and were very enthusiastic, questions coming one after another.

    Wow, this is the legendary Crescent Moon Island! This villa looks so impressive!

    I wish I had a villa like this.

    Forget it upstairs, this villa isn’t clean.

    Who cares if it’s clean or not, it’d be great to own such a luxurious villa.

    A master said before that this villa has something dirty, is it true?

    As the chat continued, the topic went off-topic. Since it was a live broadcast, Xiao Wen couldn’t easily answer these topics from netizens. One wrong move and the live stream could be blocked.

    Xiao Wen could only smile. When the topic passed, everyone started asking about others. Some people were concerned about Yang Fan’s health. Xiao Wen simply replied that he was seasick and had gone to rest.

    I was watching the live stream just now, Brother Xie is so concerned about Yang Fan.

    Brother Xie is really nice, he’s good to other guests. Seeing Yang Fan seasick, he even took the initiative to help him with his luggage.

    Xiao Wen had fewer fans than Xie Jifeng. Occasionally, a few comments about him would drift by, but they were quickly pushed down by Xie Jifeng’s fans. Seeing that the topic was being entirely led by Xie Jifeng and Yang Fan, Xiao Wen’s smile wasn’t looking so good anymore.

    Who joins a show without wanting to increase their popularity and become more famous?

    Originally very annoyed that everyone kept discussing Xie Jifeng and Yang Fan, Xiao Wen kept staring at the comments, wanting to see if there were any comments saying something else so he could bring up other topics to chat about.

    However, Xiao Wen saw netizens mentioning Yan Ye’s name.

    When the ship was live-streaming just now, I didn’t seem to see Yan Ye?

    Exactly? How did he appear again later!

    Wuwuwu, I thought Brother Yan had quit the production team, I wasn’t even planning to watch, thankfully I persisted.

    Seeing everyone mention Yan Ye, Xiao Wen’s throat felt dry. His mind kept recalling the memory from that night.

    The person was clearly dead, he had personally thrown them into the sea, how could…

    “Good morning, everyone?” A magnetic voice sounded from above Xiao Wen’s head.

    Xiao Wen was too familiar with this voice. His hand that was holding the tablet to look at comments trembled, the tablet nearly falling to the ground. Thankfully, it was caught by a pair of slender, well-defined hands.

    “Look how scared you are, did you do something guilty?” Yan Ye smiled gently, his eyes looking at the comments on the tablet. That ‘Good morning’ just now was also a greeting to the audience.

    Originally, he had gone to the room with Song Yang and the other two, but in the room, seeing those two take turns showing concern for Yang Fan, even scaring an uncomfortable person into hiding under the covers, he had to suggest everyone come outside to let Yang Fan rest in the room first.

    Yan Ye came down not long after, followed by the other two.

    Xie Jifeng and Song Yang naturally didn’t get along. Walking together, neither spoke a word, not even bothering with superficial politeness.

    Xiao Wen slowly reacted, suppressing the anger in his heart, “Little Yan, why did you come down so soon?”

    Because he was a senior, Xiao Wen always liked to call him Little Yan in front of the original host, using it to constantly remind the other party that he was the original host’s senior.

    Yan Ye was still looking at the comments, not answering Xiao Wen’s question. Instead, he picked a few comment questions to answer, “How did I get here? Of course…”

    He deliberately paused for two seconds, “I woke up on the beach after drinking too much last night, do you believe me?”

    Whether the netizens believed him or not, Song Yang had already looked over.

    Last night, Yan Ye’s explanation to him was also like this.

    Truly speaking nonsense, does he think everyone is a fool?

    Xie Jifeng’s mind wasn’t here, he didn’t listen to what Yan Ye was chatting about with the comments. He just quietly held a bottle of water and took two sips, then remembered something and walked into a kitchen.

    Hahaha, Brother Yan, don’t joke, hurry up and tell us, we want to know.

    Yan Ye, you might as well tell everyone you swam here, that’s more believable than what you just said.

    Seeing the netizens probing, Xiao Wen’s heart was in his throat, afraid that Yan Ye would tell everyone what happened last night.

    On the other side, Xie Jifeng, who entered the kitchen, didn’t know where to start. The kitchen looked like it hadn’t been used for years, accumulating a thick layer of dust. He couldn’t even find a clean kitchen utensil, only finding a bag of rice that seemed to have appeared recently, the date was still quite new.

    He originally wanted to come out and boil some hot water to give Yang Fan medicine, but now it seemed impossible.

    Xie Jifeng came out and asked Song Yang in confusion, “CEO Song, don’t you use the kitchen?”

    Song Yang had already seen him come out of the kitchen, his smile casual, “I only arrived on the island yesterday, and I can’t cook. What kitchen would I use?”

    Who is qualified for him to enter the kitchen and cook for them?

    “Then CEO Song, don’t you eat?” Xie Jifeng asked good-naturedly. Although he couldn’t stand the other person, this was Song Yang’s territory after all.

    Song Yang chuckled, he had already seen what the kitchen was like.

    The people the assistant hired to clean the villa had already run off with the money. He only found out when he arrived on the island. What could he do? Was he supposed to clean it himself?

    But thankfully, these people had at least cleaned out four rooms, so they could at least sleep.

    Song Yang smiled at the Director, “Director, I borrowed your island for filming. So as not to disturb your filming, I didn’t even bring an assistant or a chef. You won’t short me a meal, right?”

    The Director peeked into the kitchen, thinking that there was nothing to eat in the crew’s supplies, and could only force a smile, “Naturally, naturally. Whatever the guests eat, CEO Song will eat. How does that sound?”

    Song Yang pursed his lower lip, “I’m not picky.”

    The Director smiled and turned back to tell the guests about today’s mission. Today’s exploration content was to find edible food on this island.

    Everyone had to participate, except for the uncomfortable Yang Fan who could rest in the villa.

    Song Yang’s lips curved up when he heard this. He wasn’t a guest, so he could stay in the villa.

    Yan Ye saw his subtle action, “Presumably CEO Song hasn’t eaten anything since yesterday!”

    Song Yang nodded, giving a soft ‘mm’.

    After Yan Ye said that, he suddenly felt a bit hungry.

    “To help everyone find edible food sooner, why doesn’t CEO Song join us in looking for food? After all, we are new here and not familiar with this island.”

    “Director, what do you think?” Yan Ye asked, completely ignoring Song Yang’s dissatisfied look.

    The Director also considered that everyone wasn’t familiar with the island and thought his idea was feasible, so he said, “Yan Ye makes sense, then we’ll trouble CEO Song.”

    Song Yang’s words of refusal were on the tip of his tongue, but were unexpectedly interrupted by the Director’s words. He nodded with a dark face, his cold eyes glancing at Yan Ye, mentally taking note of him.

    Yan Ye was oblivious, he went upstairs to call the others to leave.

    Around ten minutes later, all the guests gathered downstairs.

    Hearing that they were going out to find ingredients, Huo Sang raised his hand and asked, “Are there other people living on this island?”

    Song Yang lowered his eyes, his emotionless voice telling him there weren’t.

    Without people, where would they find ingredients? Huo Sang asked resignedly, “There are no people, so where are we going to find ingredients?”

    He had watched other travel shows. Everyone either exchanged ingredients with some passersby or did physical labor to get ingredients. It wasn’t like them at all.

    Qin Yan couldn’t stand seeing him like this, walked over and kicked him, “There’s plenty of food in the sea, it just depends on whether you have the ability!”

    Huo Sang was about to kick back, but paused at the words, “Then are we going to the beach to catch fish now?”

    Seeing his eyes shining and looking eager to try, Qin Yan spoke to dampen his spirits, “Can you scuba dive?”

    Huo Sang’s smile immediately disappeared, and he slowly looked up at Qin Yan, raising an arm, “You just shut up, don’t talk.”

    With that, he raised his hand to cover Qin Yan’s mouth.

    Yet Qin Yan still wanted to say something. The two, one fleeing and one chasing, ran outside first.

    The Director chuckled and told everyone to follow the two of them, and also had the staff bring out two sets of diving equipment.

    Yan Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, it seemed they were prepared early.

    The Director gave a dry laugh at being watched by him, put a sun hat and sunglasses on his head and face, looking exactly like someone on vacation.

    There was another person dressed like they were on vacation. When everyone was getting ready to leave, Song Yang had gone upstairs at some point and came down in a change of clothes.

    A very casual shirt paired with beach shorts, flip-flops on his clean feet, and a pair of sunglasses exactly like the Director’s.

    Xie Jifeng saw Song Yang like this and showed a disdainful look.

    Song Yang scoffed in response, raising his chin arrogantly as he walked past him.

    The group followed Song Yang grandly to the beach. It was then that everyone discovered there was also a patch of coconut trees on the island.

    Huo Sang was the first to exclaim in surprise and the first to climb up a tree.

    Wild coconut trees were not as straight and upright as cultivated ones, but grew slanted towards the sea.

    Huo Sang’s agility was quite good, and he quickly picked several coconuts for everyone.

    The Director also couldn’t stop smiling, the thirst problem was solved.

    He had the staff bring out the coconut opening tools that had been prepared earlier. He and Song Yang each held a coconut in their hands, savoring them with great relish.

    Netizens in the live stream commented one after another, saying the two knew how to enjoy themselves.

    Before long, comments appeared in the live stream asking about the diving equipment.

    There were only two sets of diving equipment, so who would use them?

    The Director read out this comment, scanned the male guests, and first excluded He Lin. “Besides He Lin, who is willing to scuba dive?”

    Xiao Wen’s eyes flickered, and he was the first to speak, “Little Yan is quite good at swimming.”

    The Director’s gaze immediately looked towards Yan Ye, but before he could open his mouth, he was interrupted, “Does scuba diving have anything to do with swimming?”

    Yan Ye looked at Xiao Wen with a half-smile. Although he said that, he wasn’t unwilling to scuba dive, he just needed someone to go with him. Xiao Wen was a pretty good candidate.

    “But since you said so, then it will be me and Brother Xiao. I remember Brother Xiao got his diving certificate before.”
