Chapter 76: They Indirectly Kissed!

Finally, after much trial and error, everyone learned to use the tools correctly.

Each group had a telescopic pole about five to six meters long, with a sickle-shaped blade at the top. Once assembled and tested for strength, they were ready to use.

Perhaps due to innate talent, Qi Le’s group quickly picked the first coconut.

“Thud!”

The sound of the coconut hitting the ground was dull and heavy. Some people clapped, encouraging the other groups.

On Fang Zhou’s side, due to his injured hand, he was assigned the final task of collecting coconut meat.

Sun Haotian was responsible for getting the coconuts down and then cutting off the hard bottom part.

Qin Yun gathered the coconut juice, while Tang Wan scraped out the coconut meat.

Initially, everyone had their role, and it should have gone smoothly.

But the problem started with Sun Haotian’s first step.

What seemed like a simple task of picking coconuts proved challenging for him.

Five minutes passed with no results.

Ten minutes later, not a single coconut had fallen from the tree.

The longer Sun Haotian held the pole, the more the live stream audience laughed.

“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter! He looks so determined, but he hasn’t gotten anything!”

“Qi Le on the other side picks one silently and has already gotten five or six. They’ve moved on to opening the coconuts, while this side hasn’t even started!”

“Hahaha, the first group must be thinking: People’s joys and sorrows are not connected; I only find them noisy.”

Even Tang Wan couldn’t watch any longer and volunteered to help.

“Brother Sun, why don’t you let me try?”

To the proud Sun Haotian, this sounded like, “Can’t you do it? If not, let me.”

A man can’t admit he can’t do something! He had to prove he could!

“Tang Wan, you sit down for a bit. I’ll get it done soon!”

Sun Haotian, now sweating profusely, sped up his actions, but haste makes waste.

Despite the pain in his arms, he still couldn’t get a single coconut down.

Even the injured Fang Zhou felt sorry for him, thinking: If I weren’t hurt, we might already be drinking coconut water.

Unable to watch any longer, Tang Wan took the pole from Sun Haotian and started finding the right angle.

In less than a minute, the first coconut finally hit the ground!

“Yay!”

Tang Wan’s cheerful shout broke the silence, finally bringing some laughter.

“Great!”

Qin Yun stood up and applauded Tang Wan.

“Keep going, a few more and we can drink coconut water!”

Fang Zhou looked at the green-skinned coconut on the ground, feeling thirsty but knowing he couldn’t drink it yet.

Maybe this is what they call ‘looking at a coconut to quench thirst’?

About half an hour later, thanks to Tang Wan’s efforts, the first group had a pile of coconuts.

Next up was the challenging part—opening them.

“I really don’t know how to do this.”

Tang Wan shrugged, indicating it was difficult.

Freshly picked green coconuts are very hard to open if you don’t cut them at the right spot.

Sun Haotian, feeling he had lost face, quickly took on the task.

“I got this! This kind of hard work is for us men, haha.”

He picked up the knife prepared by the show and started chopping at the bottom of the coconut.

Fang Zhou watched him, noting that his technique was skilled, chopping at an angle from the base, swiftly revealing the meat.

“No wonder he’s in the food business! Brother Sun’s technique is clean and sharp!”

He never hesitated to praise genuine skill.

“Of course, everyone has their specialty. I wouldn’t boast about anything else, but in this field, I’m number one!”

Sun Haotian smiled proudly, chopping a large opening in the coconut, making it easy to scoop out the meat.

The clear, sweet coconut water also came into view.

He handed the coconut to Tang Wan with a grin.

“Here, you worked hard picking the coconuts, so you get the first sip.”

Tang Wan didn’t hesitate and drank with a straw.

Sun Haotian continued opening more coconuts, and soon everyone was enjoying one.

“Ah! So refreshing!”

“One must enjoy life to the fullest!”

Sun Haotian began to reflect on life.

Fang Zhou used his uninjured hand to sip from a straw, the sweet taste refreshing him completely.

A joke suddenly came to his mind.

“The imperial jade liquor!”

“One hundred and eighty a cup!”

Sun Haotian caught the joke, and they burst into laughter.

“The code matches!”

Qin Yun and Tang Wan also smiled contentedly.

While they enjoyed their quiet moment, they heard repeated shouts of “Eighty!” from the nearby group.

“Eighty!”

It sounded just like a skit about breaking down walls, and Fang Zhou almost laughed out loud at the thought.

“Hahaha, what’s going on?”

Sun Haotian recognized the sound immediately.

“They must be chopping coconuts the wrong way!”

Seeing a chance to show off, he quickly put down his coconut and rushed to help the other group.

He shouted, “Hey, that’s not how you open a coconut!”

Tang Wan, also amused, followed him to watch.

This left Fang Zhou alone with Qin Yun. They glanced at each other, and the atmosphere changed.

Qin Yun, with her striking features and heavy makeup today, looked even more alluring.

The live stream audience described her as “someone who could kill with her beauty.”

With Sun Haotian and Tang Wan gone, her gaze fixed on Fang Zhou, making it impossible to ignore.

Not wanting to engage, Fang Zhou silently drank his coconut water.

After a few sips, Qin Yun approached him.

“How is it? Tasty?”

The mature woman slightly bent over, leaning on the table in front of him, tilting her head to look at him.

Her eyes sparkled, filled with infinite charm.

Fang Zhou’s heart skipped a beat, sensing trouble.

Every time he was alone with Qin Yun, something bad happened.

He looked up, put down the coconut, and answered honestly, “It’s good.”

Freshly picked coconut, how could it not be good?

Then, her next move stunned him.

“Tasty? Let me try.”

She leaned in, her red lips parting, and the straw he had been using went into her mouth.

This action was an indirect kiss!
