12 – Legendary Superstar Air-Drops into a Dating Show
At this moment, the production team was still struggling desperately.
Ji Fanxing noticed the pitiful looks from the crew and, after thinking for a moment, answered seriously, “I like someone older than me.”
The Director tried hard to pair them up, asking, “Someone like Actor Zhu?”
Ji Fanxing glanced sideways at the gentle and refined man, then said with a serious, adorable face, “Older, not old.”
Zhu Zhou: “…”
The production team: “…”
In the end, only the ex-couple performed as expected.
Chen You smiled and said with clear hints, “I like gentle, innocent, kind-hearted girls.”
【Aww, I knew it! He almost said Zhu Zhu’s name outright.】
【As expected, he still loves her.】
【Brother Chen You is really so devoted!!】
Zhu Luoling acted as if she hadn’t noticed, tilting her head slightly in thought before also giving three keywords.
“Gentle, humorous, witty?”
【These adjectives sound just like Brother Chen You too!!】
【And Zhu Zhu also used three adjectives. The Heart-to-Heart couple is killing me—please get back together already.】
【This girl is quite clever. These three adjectives also kind of describe Actor Zhu…】
【A Zhu-Zhu pairing isn’t bad either. Our Zhu Zhu deserves it!】
【………】
The ideal type Q&A session came to an end.
The production team was practically shrouded in dark clouds.
“A bunch of people who don’t follow the script. Aside from the ex-couple getting back together, the others have zero chemistry together.”
“This is truly the worst season of a romance reality show I’ve ever directed.”
In contrast, the guests were enjoying their meal quite happily.
Especially Bo Zhi.
Unlike her bright and beautiful appearance, when she ate, her cheeks puffed up like a cute, silly little hamster.
The comments were unanimously praising her.
【Oh wow, this little thing is oddly adorable.】
【How does she manage to look cool and stunning but eat so cutely and childishly, lol?】
【Those big eyes blinking like that—oh my, it’s hitting this mom right in the heart.】
【I volunteer to be Bo Zhi’s eating fan, hahaha.】
Even the Assistant Director couldn’t help but say, “Bo Zhi’s audience appeal is pretty good, and she’s getting a lot of discussion.”
He even felt tempted to say something unbelievable—perhaps Bo Zhi could really become a top star in the entertainment industry someday.
“Is that useful?!”
The Director couldn’t help but roar, “This is a romance reality show! A romance reality show! Does she look like she’s here to fall in love?!”
“By the end of the season, she’ll probably have turned everyone into her bros.”
But even the production team couldn’t help but wonder—with Bo Zhi’s personality, did she really chase after Chen You back then?
The Director sighed, “This is truly a career Waterloo.”
He had a sneaking suspicion that this show was doomed.
After all, it’s a romance reality show. No romance, no sweetness—what kind of romance show is that?
The Assistant Director tried to comfort him, “Look on the bright side. Isn’t life just like this? Ups and downs and downs and downs and downs and downs and downs.”
The Director: “…”
Thank you so much.
Suddenly, a ‘ding-a-ling’ phone ringtone went off, and the Director picked up his phone.
He answered weakly, “Hello…”
The next second, he nearly jumped up in excitement.
“What did you say?! Who??!!”
Even the Assistant Director was startled by him. What was going on?
The Director couldn’t hide his joy, his face crinkling into a smile that seemed about to float away.
“Yes, yes, no problem. Rules may be rigid, but I’m flexible.”
“Drop! Just drop! Airdrop!”
“Do you need me to send a parachute to pick them up now?”
Assistant Director: “…?”
This is just too much of a suck-up, bro.
After hanging up the phone, the Director grabbed the Assistant Director by the shoulders and shook him wildly.
“We’re saved, we’re saved.”
The Assistant Director asked with a look of exasperation, “Alright, who’s coming?”
“Fu Jingyan.”
“Fu… Jingyan? Yan Shen?!”
Who in the entertainment industry doesn’t know Fu Jingyan? The Eastern myth, the god-level idol, hailed as a legendary top-tier star.
Such a top idol should stay firmly on his pedestal—how could he suddenly decide to join a romance reality show?
“Are you sure it wasn’t a scam call?” the Assistant Director asked skeptically.
“Of course not! It was his manager who personally called, saying he’s already on his way!”
The Director couldn’t hide his delight. After all, as long as Fu Jingyan came, it didn’t matter whether there was any romance or not.
This show was definitely going to blow up!
Soon after, he informed all the guests about the new arrival.
Zhu Luoling smiled gently. “A new guest? I hadn’t heard about this before.”
The production team replied mysteriously, “It’s a surprise guest who’s dropping in.”
Ji Fanxing propped her chin on her hand and chattered to Bo Zhi beside her, “A surprise drop-in? Seems like the new guest is a big deal.”
As a child star and a second-generation celebrity, she had a general understanding of people’s status in the industry.
Anyone who could drop in unexpectedly at this time must be a very famous artist.
“Mhm, mhm.” Bo Zhi nodded absentmindedly, unconcerned. “Not my business.”
Then she continued to be utterly absorbed in devouring her meal.
Ji Fanxing: “…”
Each person’s plate had a delicate, mini-sized cake. Bo Zhi had already finished hers and even snatched Jiang Can’s too.
But she still wanted more.
She felt too embarrassed to ask to take the little sister’s cake.
So, she just kept staring at it.
Ji Fanxing: “…”
She simply picked up her cake and handed it to Bo Zhi. “Here, take it.”
Bo Zhi happily opened her mouth and ate it, sweetly pinching Ji Fanxing’s cheek. “Thanks, sweetie~”
[Is this dead girl flirting with girls again?]
[I think I suddenly understand what Bo Zhi means—no men in her heart, but women, right?]
[Hahahaha damn, it’s like a Myoga eating a Myoga seed and entering Mickey’s Fun House—absolutely brilliant!]
[Honestly, it’s true. She’s so dismissive and cold toward the male guests, only smiling sweetly at the girls.]
[…Can’t a man come and keep Bo Zhi in check?]
As soon as these words were spoken, a pitch-black Maybach pulled up at the villa entrance.
The camera immediately cut to the gleaming car door.
The door slowly opened, and a man’s long, straight leg stepped out. Ivory-black trousers hugged his legs, exuding elegance and nobility in every detail.
[Holy crap! Who is the new guest?! Those legs are longer than my life!]
[These long legs—I’m drooling. I want to get a leg up with this brother! heart eyes heart eyes]
[Brother’s legs aren’t just legs—they’re the spring waters of the Seine River.]
[Looks like a 187cm hottie. Who is it?! Who is it?!]
But the production team knew how to play it up—the camera only showed those impossibly long legs the entire time.
Until the mystery guest reached the villa door.
His pale, slender fingers rested on the silver door handle, pressing down with a slight force. The lock made a soft click.
All the guests inside turned their heads at the sound.
In that instant, everyone’s expressions could only be described with four words:
Dumbfounded and stunned.
Even the strawberry Bo Zhi had been holding in her mouth dropped with a soft plop.
The barrage was nearly going crazy, 【Director, do you even know how to shoot? If you don’t, then get lost and go dig coal in Africa!!】
The next second, a low, lazy, and magnetic chuckle rang out.
It was so captivating it made one’s ears tingle.
【Wait, why does this voice sound a bit like my husband??】
【? What nonsense are you talking about? That’s clearly my husband!!】
【Looks like we’ve got the same husband, folks. Time to draw our swords.】
【Holy shit holy shit holy shit, could the mystery guest be Yan Shen?!!】
To confirm the netizens’ guesses, the production team finally revealed the true face of the mystery guest.
Under the cool moonlight, an exceptionally handsome man stood before the villa gate.
His casual silk shirt hung lazily, the lines of his collarbone clear and seductive. A faint, elusive smile lingered in his reserved, cool eyes, exuding a mesmerizing, enchanting allure.
He spoke, greeting everyone with a light, gentle smile.
“Hello everyone, I’m Fu Jingyan.”
The next moment, the livestream exploded.
So did Bo Zhi.
