Companions turn against each other

"Boss, rest assured, I'll arrange everything properly."

Su Yang had always trusted Jiang Hei's efficiency. He nodded at Jiang Hei and said, "Good, thank you for your hard work. Take your vacation after Yuan Kui and the others finish theirs."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Hei chuckled, "Boss, you know me. My current situation is already like a vacation, and I can't stop. Even if I were forced to take a break, I wouldn't be able to sit still."

Jiang Hei was highly dependent on the internet. He had his own pursuits, constantly improving his skills and striving for greater heights.

Su Yang nodded and smiled, "Alright, take a break and don't overwork yourself."

After a few more words, Jiang Hei left. Su Yang didn't ask Jiang Hei to rest there, as Jiang Hei couldn't go to Su Yang's area.

Returning to his room, Su Yang tidied it up. The soundproofing in this house was quite good. Su Yang opened the window and could only hear the chirping of birds outside.

Hearing the sounds outside, Su Yang felt very pleased.

It was 3:10 PM. Su Yang still had a long time to rest, but he didn't immediately do so. Instead, he took out his electronic device, connected to the internet, and went to the official website of the "You Nong Wo Nong" program to see the evaluations from various countries regarding the live recording that day.

There were many comments, and the messages had already exceeded ten million within just one morning.

On the homepage of the official website, there was a "Black and Red List." Su Yang saw his avatar displayed on both lists.

After a moment's thought, Su Yang understood what these lists represented.

It meant that since the program began airing, Su Yang was both the most popular and the least popular.

Looking at these two lists before him, Su Yang smiled faintly.

This was actually quite close to Su Yang's expectations.

Su Yang had predicted that he would be the least popular, but also that some people would still favor him, given his excellence in various aspects.

However, being the most popular exceeded his expectations.

When participating in a program, it's not about being hated, but about generating buzz.

Now, Su Yang alone had generated far more buzz than the other participants combined.

Su Yang felt quite happy. When he arrived, no one had high hopes for him, except for those in Long Country. It was unlikely anyone else had.

Even the program team hadn't thoroughly investigated him.

Yet, Su Yang had become the guest with the highest buzz on this program.

This truly made Su Yang feel quite comfortable.

Who could understand this feeling of proving others wrong?

Su Yang had experienced it several times today.

Looking at the online comments, Su Yang felt relatively calm.

After browsing foreign comments for a while, Su Yang then looked at the comments from Long Country. Su Yang had been trending for the entire day, not just trending, but with sustained explosive popularity.

Originally, Su Yang had multiple trending topics, very similar to the scene when he participated in the election that day.

However, due to server limitations, the programmers had consolidated all topics related to Su Yang into one, which was the "Su Yang" topic that had remained at the top.

Clicking into it, Su Yang browsed through. There were very few negative comments about him; most praised him, and many specifically mentioned his wealth.

Su Yang hadn't explicitly revealed his wealth in Long Country before, but it was close. This series of actions in Mei Country this time had further changed people's perceptions of him.

Su Yang looked at the comments here for a while and then exited.

He found these comments somewhat scattered. However, later, Liangli would send him the data he wanted to see, so there was no need for him to keep looking at it alone.

After exiting the internet, Su Yang clicked into the live broadcast channel on the official website.

Currently, Su Yang's live broadcast channel was black.

This was because Su Yang's cameraman was outside, and the camera in Su Yang's room had not yet been turned on.

This aspect of the program was quite humane.

The cameras in the rooms could only be turned on with the homeowner's consent, which, to some extent, protected the guests' privacy.

Su Yang observed that several other live streams were also black, indicating that many people were resting at the moment.

Su Yang clicked on Charlie's channel. Charlie was currently taking a walk with Meimei in Central Park.

But... it was just a walk.

The two of them weren't saying a single word.

Passersby spoke more than these two.

Su Yang felt a bit helpless.

When Charlie told Su Yang that he was going for a walk with Meimei, Su Yang thought Charlie was quite capable, managing to ask a female guest for a walk on the first day.

But Su Yang never expected that what Charlie called a "walk" was just a walk.

Not a single word was exchanged.

Su Yang watched Charlie's live broadcast for ten minutes. During this time, Meimei even tried to talk to Charlie, but Charlie's replies were extremely brief.

Su Yang suddenly felt a sense of disappointment, like a teacher frustrated with a student.

Charlie was truly a dense straight man at this moment. Meimei had actively initiated a conversation, and he still managed to give such dead-end replies.

Su Yang watched for a while, feeling a headache coming on from frustration, so he exited Charlie's live stream.

Then, Su Yang clicked on George's live broadcast.

George and Emily were still eating.

Emily could barely eat anymore, taking small bites of dessert.

But George, visibly, was already stuffed. Yet, he continued to eat relentlessly.

Looking at George on the screen, Su Yang's lips curved into a mocking smile.

Plates were scattered all over the table. George's mouth was messy, and it was unclear how much food he had stuffed into it, making one feel physically uncomfortable.

The comments section had already started to scold George.

But what surprised Su Yang was that more people were speaking up for him.

[Didn't they look down on Su Yang before? He's now paying ten million Mei dollars and covering your expenses. How can you eat so shamelessly now?]

[His eating posture... reminds me of our little piggy.]

[Above, this pig isn't fragrant.]

...

Looking at these comments on the screen, Su Yang felt much happier.

When these commenters started scolding, they were far more vicious than Su Yang.

Su Yang watched the comments for a while, feeling even more satisfied.

George, oblivious on this side, kept eating until he couldn't stuff any more food into his mouth.

Only then did George stop eating.

"Comfortable..."

George rubbed his stomach and leaned back in his chair, saying to Emily opposite him.

Emily glanced at George with disdain and said, "Didn't you just say you weren't hungry? You were just afraid of spending money, so after Su Yang paid, you ate like a pig."

Emily never minced her words, and this statement made George feel incredibly uncomfortable.

"Emily, aren't we at least friends? How can you talk about me like that?"

Hearing George's words, Emily rolled her eyes and said, "Who's friends with you?"

"If we're not friends, why did you come to eat with me?"

At this, Emily rolled her eyes even more intensely.

She looked at George and said, "If you hadn't begged me, and if you hadn't said you'd take me to this restaurant, I wouldn't have bothered with you. Do you think I dislike Su Yang, so I don't dislike you? You're even more detestable than Su Yang."

Emily's words made George so angry that he wanted to smash the plates.

He glared at Emily and said angrily, "Why are you talking like that? After you've eaten your fill, you turn your back on me?"

Hearing George's words, Emily looked him up and down and said, "Did you treat me to this meal? If I recall correctly, all the expenses here were paid by Su Yang, right? Are you Su Yang?"

This matter was also a sore point for George.

After Emily said this, George felt even more distressed.

He glared at Emily and said, "But it was I who invited you to dinner at the beginning! So, I invited you!"

Hearing this, Emily stood up and splashed a glass of water, worth 999 Mei dollars, onto George's face.

"You lunatic!" George stood up, looking disheveled, and glared at Emily, "What are you doing?"

"I want you to wake up. You can't afford so many dishes. If Su Yang hadn't taken pity on you, you wouldn't have been able to leave here today."

Saying this, Emily rolled her eyes at George again and said, "Be grateful to Su Yang. Although he's not good-looking, he's at least rich, and Su Yang's money... I don't know how many more zeros it has compared to yours."
