Chapter 37: Whoever Was Not Chosen Would Be Embarrassed
Bai Jingtian was stunned for a moment before he smiled gently. “You’ve changed quite a lot.”
Shi Ran suddenly remembered what the original owner of this body had done in the past and touched her nose. “People have to grow up.”
“You’ve grown up very quickly.” Bai Jingtian patted the top of her head gently, as gentle as a neighbor’s brother.
Shi Ran felt a little awkward, but because of what the original owner of this body had done, she felt guilty towards Bai Jingtian. As the camera was filming, she did not want to embarrass Bai Jingtian.
[What is this scene???]
[Master Ran’s words are so valiant!! I love it, I love it!]
[Shi Ran is right, but this has to be based on strength. Otherwise, she’s just putting on a brave front.]
[Am I the only one who thinks Master Ran and Brother Tian look good as a couple?]
[Our Brother Tian is handsome on his own. Can Shi Ran stop trying to gain popularity through him?]
When Shi Ran and Bai Jingtian returned with the wine, dinner was already ready.
After everyone had finished eating, the director appeared again.
“We’re now making public the rules for our romantic date. Today is the first day and the staff has already placed four mailboxes outside with the names of the female guests.”
“The male guests can choose the female guest he has the most affection for. Write her a letter and drop it into her mailbox.”
“If more than two male guests choose a female guest, the female guest gets to choose her partner. The female guest can also decide to choose neither.”
“Now, can I ask the male guests to go outside and start choosing the female guest they like?”
“Excuse me…” Liang Bu interrupted. “Will the be made public?”
“That depends on the program team’s mood,” Director Wang said.
[?????]
[The production team is awesome]
[Public reveal will be like a scene from hell. I like it! Go public with it!]
The comments were abuzz, but in the next second, the camera went black.
[The program team is inhumane?? They turned off the live broadcast at the critical moment?]
[Damn!! My curiosity is piqued.]
[Although I know that these scenes can only be seen in quality shows, the production team is still too much!]
The live broadcast was turned off and the male guests walked out. Only the female guests remained in the living room.
“Why don’t we guess who they’ll choose?” Yu Ziqian suddenly had an idea.
“Sure.” Shi Wenfei nodded with interest.
“Who do you think our President Zhou will choose?” Yu Ziqian looked at Shi Ran meaningfully.
“What do you think?” Gu Jia looked at Yu Ziqian with a half smile.
Yu Ziqian pretended to think. “I think it would be too boring if CEO Zhou chose Shi Ran. The two of them are engaged, so there’s no suspense.”
Shi Wenfei glanced at Yu Ziqian with admiration.
Yu Ziqian was smart.
With this sentence, even if Yufan chose her, it could temporarily be classified as an act for program effect so she was not afraid of being attacked by netizens.
Shi Ran leaned back against the sofa, her eyes half-closed. “So what do you think we’re participating in the romance program for?”
“Maybe to show off your love?” Yu Ziqian answered uncertainly.
“We’re engaged. We can show off our love whenever we want. Why do we have to be on the show?”
The atmosphere was too strong, and Yu Ziqian gradually became weaker. She could only ask, “Then why?”
Shi Ran glanced sideways at Shi Wenfei.
Shi Wenfei met her gaze and had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, she heard Shi Ran’s words the next second.
“To make some shady relationships more logical, of course.”
“Sister, what do you mean?” Shi Wenfei looked terrible, but she had to smile because of the camera.
At this moment, Gu Jia took over. “Whether it’s the program’s effect or not, there’s no reason for CEO Zhou to not choose his fiancée. you should choose someone else later.”
“Since you both are already participating in the variety show, I don’t think it’s strange for CEO Zhou to choose someone else. Shi Ran shouldn’t mind, right?” Yu Ziqian smiled at Shi Ran.
The only response she got from Shi Ran was a sudden yawn.
She didn’t even bother to look at Yu Ziqian.
Who Zhou Yufan chose had nothing to do with her.
Shi Wenfei bit her lip in resentment.
Yu Fan would definitely choose her so she wanted to see how Shi Ran would pretend to be indifferent then!
Director Wang looked at the scene on the monitor and was amazed. “This Shi Ran is really bold. No wonder the investors wanted to stuff her in.”
“We have to add this segment as a preview!” Director Wang’s tone gradually became excited.
The male guests quickly finished choosing.
One by one, the female guests went out to check the mailboxes next.
The first to go out was Gu Jia.
Shi Wenfei and Yu Ziqian looked at each other.
Yu Ziqian sighed, feigning concern. “Would it be very awkward if I’m not chosen later?”
“That won’t happen,” Shi Wenfei said with a smile. “I see you and Liang Bu are getting along well today.”
“Doesn’t this rule mean that you have no charm if you’re not chosen?” Yu Ziqian said, glancing at Shi Ran.
“Shi Ran must have many candidates. The scene in the afternoon was so cool. Everyone will definitely choose Shi Ran.” Yu Ziqian looked at Shi Ran enviously.
A treacherous light flashed in Shi Wenfei’s eyes as she echoed, “Yes, Sister must have many candidates.”
Did that b*tch really think that she was in the limelight this afternoon?
How could any man like a woman who loved to fight?
When the time came when no one had chosen Shi Ran, she would definitely be in an awkward situation.
‘I can hardly wait.’
Gu Jia returned. She smiled at Yu Ziqian’s curiosity, but did not answer.
The second person to go out was Shi Ran.
The mailbox was set in the front yard, which was surrounded by flowers. The moment she stepped in, the fragrance of flowers filled her nostrils.
The night sky was starlit, and the yard was lit by warm yellow lights.
She strolled through the warm light, a breeze stirring her long hair.
Four wooden mailboxes twined with light, and Shi Ran walked to the one with her name on it.
Opening of the box.
The camera advanced closer.
Two folded white letters stood out in the small, dim space.
She reached for the letters and opened them one by one.
… .
Shi Ran went back into the living room.
Shi Wenfei observed Shi Ran’s expression, wanting to know if she had received any letter.
However, her expression remained the same so one could not tell anything.
She was next.
A sweet light came into her eyes.
Yufan would definitely choose her.
She smiled all the way to her mailbox and opened it. It was empty.
How is this possible?!
Unwilling to believe it, she reached in and fumbled. She didn’t find the envelope. Instead, sawdust scraped her hand.
She was incredulous.
‘How!’
The person Yufan chose was actually not her?!
Shi Wenfei walked back with a strange expression. She scanned the three people in the living room and finally settled on the female CEO, Gu Jia.
‘It must be her! It must be Gu Jia!’
Yufan must be afraid that if he chose her now, she would be scolded by the netizens.
Therefore, Yu Fan chose Gu Jia, who was also the CEO of a company.
It didn’t matter. She couldn’t be the only one who hadn’t been chosen.
She looked at Shi Ran.
No one would choose Shi Ran either. Yufan had said that he would never choose Shi Ran!
At that moment, Shi Wenfei was extremely certain.
The female guests had all checked their mailboxes.
Just then, Director Wang’s voice sounded again. “Since it is the first day of our show, the production team has decided to announce the results of our first date.”
“Unfortunately, one of the female guests was not chosen by the male guests tonight, and there has been an instance whereby two male guests had written to the same female guest.”
“Now I’ll reveal the delivery of tonight’s envelopes, one by one.”
