The group set off from the guesthouse and didn't see anyone else along the way, proving that the production team was indeed going all out.

Shen Shiqing walked in front, with the others behind. Realizing that Shi Xia hadn't caught up yet, Shen Shiqing stopped.

Unexpectedly, he was hit directly on the back.

Summer crashed into it, and even the emergency brakes couldn't stop it.

Shen Shiqing turned around and saw Shi Xia covering her forehead, as if she had bumped it and hurt herself.

Yes, the little girl has delicate skin, she must have really been hurt.

Shen Shiqing reached out and brushed aside Shi Xia's bangs, finding them stained red. Just as he was about to rub them for her, Shi Xia suddenly raised her head. They met eyes, and a flicker of trembling crossed Shi Xia's round eyes, like a startled fawn, before she quickly lowered her head again.

Shen Shiqing withdrew his hand and coughed awkwardly a few times. "Sorry, I thought you hadn't caught up when I suddenly stopped. I'm sorry."

"No, no, it's alright. I was just walking too slowly. I'm so sorry, Senior Shen," Shi Xia stammered, trying to explain hastily.

"It's okay, I was just walking too fast. Let's walk together now."

Upon hearing this, Shi Xia was delighted, and even the blush on her forehead faded.

The two walked side by side, with Shen Shiqing deliberately slowing her pace to match, since it didn't matter whether she walked faster or slower. However, she noticed that Shi Xia always seemed a little nervous when she was with her, though she wasn't sure if it was just her imagination.

"Are you afraid of me?" Shen Shiqing asked.

"No, no, no!? Senior Shen, I absolutely did not!"

"So you hate me?!"

"No, no, Senior Shen! Absolutely not!" Seeing how anxious she was, Shen Shiqing didn't want to tease her anymore.

"So you have something to say to me?" Shen Shiqing had already noticed that Shi Xia seemed to be looking at her all the time, wanting to say something but saying nothing at all.

"Senior Shen! I, I, I want to say, you, you, you are really, really super good-looking! I, I really like you! I want to be your friend!" Shi Xia said as if she had mustered up her courage, her hand clenched into a fist.

"This is it?!" Shen Shiqing was somewhat incredulous. If so, then the little girl in front of him was simply too adorable!

“Yes, that’s it.” Shi Xia finished speaking without daring to look at Chen Shiqing, her head drooping like a little rabbit that had been rained on. “It’s okay if you don’t want to be friends with me.”

"Thank you for liking me, and I like myself too." Shen Shiqing leaned closer and whispered, "I don't like many people, and you are one of them."

Shen Shiqing has always liked cute people. She used to have a lot of crushes on sweet idols like Shi Xia, regardless of gender.

Shi Xia looked up with some surprise, "Then can we be friends?"

"certainly."

[What the heck?! Is this something I can even hear?! Shen Shiqing, Shi Xia, you, you all!!]

【Wow, this is something I can listen to for free?! This is something I can listen to for free?! I'm going to sign up for a membership right away!】

[Sister Shi has never said this to us fans. Sister Shi, we are really heartbroken.]

[Shi Xia's obsession with good looks is confirmed once again! This further confirms that Shen Shiqing is indeed a celestial being.]

[No way, Shi Xia is too cute! Who can resist her? Shen Shiqing, I want to possess your soul!]

[May the good things come to the newlyweds! May their fortunes be excellent! May their fortunes be excellent! Let us wish the newlyweds all the best.]

Okay, I declare that the two-hour agreement is real.

...

"Sister Qing, could you teach me how to swear? I saw you swear so well on Weibo, it's so different from before," Shi Xia whispered in Shen Shiqing's ear.

"I'll teach you myself." Shen Shiqing agreed without hesitation. She didn't mind taking on another apprentice.

Shi Xia beamed with joy upon hearing this, "Thank you, Sister Shi Qing!"

What exactly did Shen Shiqing say to my daughter? He's not allowed to corrupt my daughter!

What is it that Mom can't know? Shen Shiqing, just what abilities do you have?!

I'll pay a dollar; I want to hear what they have to say, otherwise I won't have peace.

Thanks for the invitation, I'll offer two.

...

Shen Shiqing: Why does it feel like things are starting to go wrong? Did I win over my sweet idol with my looks?

However, she always felt that Shi Xia didn't like her entirely because of her looks; perhaps there was some other connection between them that she didn't know about.

"Then let's go first. Don't forget to finish the mission first, do you remember?"

"Yes, Sister Shiqing, I've memorized the whole thing. I guarantee I'll complete the task!"

"Let's look for a place with water first, a river or a lake."

"good."

Shen Shiqing left marks along the way, after all, it was his first time in this mountain, and he really didn't know if he would be able to get out.

On the other side were Wen Xinran and Xing Jianan.

The two walked side by side. Xing Jianan remained indifferent, but Wen Xinran did not feel awkward. This was Xing Jianan's nature. He had always followed her silently before. If she didn't speak, he wouldn't speak either. He was no different from before.

If there was anything different, it was Xing Jianan's seemingly casual gaze towards Shen Shiqing that made her a little strange.

A gentle breeze blew through the mountains, lifting Wen Xinran's skirt. The sunlight shone brightly on Xing Jianan, as if bathing him in gold. Their shadows intertwined, creating a beautiful scene even without words.

[How peaceful and wonderful life is, everyone! Who's been touched by this? It's me!]

At first glance, they actually seem quite compatible: a gentle and charming female celebrity versus a cold and aloof male actor. I'm shipping this couple!

Hey, haven't you guys heard? They were college classmates, and some people have even seen them together all the time.

I think there's potential between these two. Although neither of them speaks, there's a certain unspoken understanding between them.

[Do these two have a CP name? Do they have a super topic? If not, I'll start! Let's call them "Promotion Jiaxin"! And their fan name will be "Jiaren"]

[Those mentioned above, please refrain from being bound by agreements.]

...

"Ah Xing, how have you been lately? I haven't had a proper chat with you yet," Wen Xinran said gently after walking for a while.

"Hmm, it's alright."

"You haven't seen Shi Qing in a long time, have you? Don't you feel that Shi Qing seems a little different? I always feel that she and Actor Lu have a close relationship." Wen Xinran continued to probe.

"Well, let's finish the task first," Xing Jianan replied vaguely. Wen Xinran didn't know what to say and remained silent.

Why is the topic back to Shen Shiqing again? Does this woman have to constantly seek attention?

[Hey, don't talk nonsense. Wasn't it Wen Xinran who brought up Shen Shiqing first?]

[Xing Jianan knew Shen Shiqing before? Why is Shen Shiqing always flirting with men? Disgusting!]

[I think Shen Shiqing pressured Wen Xinran to mention her behind her back, deliberately trying to get her attention. Shen Shiqing, Xing Jianan, Qin Shiyue, and Movie Emperor Lu—is Shen Shiqing trying to collect them all in the entertainment industry?]

To be honest, my husband is as cold and indifferent as ever, which puts my mind at ease.

...

Du Hewen and Qin Shiyue had already entered the mountains.

Qin Shi Yue is an idol with a rather carefree personality. She hummed a song the whole way, looking very cheerful.

On the other hand, Du Hewen remained very composed, occasionally reminding Qin Shiyue to be careful where she was stepping.

The two chatted from time to time and gradually became acquainted.

"Mr. Du, could you please give me an autograph after the show? My mom really likes you."

"Sure, I'll give it to you after the show."

[Aww, the baby is so cute! He's actually asking for an autographed photo! Tell me, do you like it more, or does your mom like it more?]

[Yes, it's similar to, I have a friend.]

[Mommy wants one too, Shiyue baby, Bonnie mommy, I want one too!]

[The one in front, I am Shiyue's mom.]

[But I always feel like the two of them together are like a father taking care of a child, hahaha, but it's still pretty sweet, isn't it?]

[Attention, Actor Du is married. Please watch your words and actions!]

Du Hewen agreed and continued on with Qin Shi Mingyue.

When the scene shifted to Lu Jingchu and Xia Chun, the comments section became a bit chaotic.

What is Xia Chun doing? Stay away from Actor Lu, and stop getting so close to him.

[Exactly, it's happened so many times along the way, even the Best Actor can't avoid it.]

[A mature, sophisticated woman meets a movie star and a seemingly helpless, vulnerable little rabbit? How did I become a shipper?! I declare the "Early Summer Couple" a perfect 10/10 in terms of heart-fluttering moments.]

[Those in front, eat something good, don't just eat anything, don't worry about getting a stomachache.]

[Isn't Xia Chun always going for a mature, sophisticated image? Why does she suddenly seem so aloof and tea-like around Actor Lu?]

[Don't spread rumors. When did our sister deliberately try to get close to the movie star? It's just that the road was too slippery, and she couldn't stand steadily.]

[And did the movie star Lu say anything? No, right? Stop being so aggressive.]

But doesn't anyone notice that Actor Lu's expression is a bit off? I look like that when someone's bothering me.

The two of them continued forward, but the distance between them had widened considerably. Lu Jingchu, with his longer legs, was able to take larger strides.

What they didn't know was that while the program was being broadcast live, related terms had already become trending topics.
