Chapter 80 Observation Room vs. King's Game "Which pose do you like best..."

【Aaaaaaah! Please! You two are so sweet, okay?! Do you two define what a perfect match is, or does being a perfect match define you two?!】

[Just had surgery to remove my "love brain," now I love you all without a care in the world, my darlings [pity]]

Do you realize how poisonous your public displays of affection are to a strong, independent woman?!

【Holy crap...am I overthinking this? Did the Best Actor just mention "past life"?】

Lu Huaijin accepted the flowers with flushed cheeks, his heart pounding so fast it was almost unrecognizable. He was bursting with joy and excitement, his chest overflowing with boundless happiness and joy that he couldn't contain it all.

He didn't answer Wen Yinhe's question directly. Instead, he slightly raised his chin, revealing his delicate Adam's apple, and parted his thin lips slightly. His deep voice was more melodious than any musical instrument in the world.

Why aren't you coming over to kiss me, boyfriend?

Wen Yinhe's heart pounded violently. He quickly took two steps forward and pressed Lu Huaijin's back against the bridge railing.

One hand grasped Lu Huaijin's waist intimately, while the other hand pressed against the back of Lu Huaijin's hand as he leaned against the bridge railing, their fingers sliding in and interlocking.

Then, with great care, she kissed Lu Huaijin's lips.

Lu Huaijin leaned back, his posture slightly lowered, only able to raise his head slightly, his mouth open, and he kissed Wen Yinhe tenderly and passionately.

The blooming wildflowers, brimming with vitality, were held tightly in Lu Huaijin's hands, nestled between their chests, reflecting the throbbing of their hearts, making it impossible to tell whose bloom was more intense or whose colors more vibrant and dazzling.

After the kiss, both of them were flushed, their eyes shimmering, gazing intently at each other with deep eyes that they couldn't look away from, as if two magnets were firmly drawn together.

Then, they all burst into laughter, though no one knew what they were laughing about.

Or perhaps it was simply because they saw each other and instinctively felt happy, without needing a reason.

They looked like they had fallen in love.

Lu Huaijin stroked Wen Yinhe's chin with his fingers, a happy smile lingering on his lips: "By the way, boyfriend, I still don't know your name."

Wen Yinhe answered softly, his voice low and slow, filled with joy and warmth: "My name is Wen Yinhe."

Lu Huaijin chuckled softly, and his next answer caused the live chat to explode.

"Like a hermit, unassuming and unassuming; like a crane, elegant and refined; concealing one's sharpness within and displaying one's elegance without—this suits you perfectly."

The deep, magnetic voice seemed to travel through time, coming from the same person, slowly chewing on the same name with the same affectionate and ambiguous tone, making one's skin crawl.

Hearing that familiar praise again, Wen Yinhe blushed uncontrollably once more, his heart filled with a mixture of shyness and elation.

No matter how many times he heard it, he couldn't resist the praise from someone he liked.

He raised his hand and covered Lu Huaijin's hand, his burning cheek gently rubbing against Lu Huaijin's palm, his gaze tender and affectionate:

"And you? What's your name?"

Lu Huaijin stroked Wen Yinhe's face and smiled beautifully: "My name is Lu Huaijin."

Wen Yinhe's gentle voice was so tender it seemed to evoke all the most beautiful things in the world. The vibrations traveled from Lu Huaijin's ear to the tip of his heart, stirring up ripples of emotion.

"A name that is as deep and tranquil as a river, and as fiery and passionate as a flame, washing away the superficial with the force of a prairie fire, allowing for a rebirth and a profound transformation. It is a very beautiful and powerful name that suits you perfectly."

[No mistake! Absolutely! This is the actor portraying the modern-day reunion of the reincarnated Immortal and Demon Lord! Even the lines are exactly the same! I'm so excited I did a 36,000-degree backflip!]

[Actor, you're amazing! I'm crying my eyes out!!! He definitely knew we couldn't let go and didn't want to leave the audience with any regrets, so he staged this whole thing! How can there be such a fan-loving celebrity in the world? Waa ...

Ah… let’s create some amnesia fiction, where the movie star is forever trapped in the same day, repeatedly suffering from amnesia, but every time he sees President Lu, he repeatedly falls in love with the same person, without exception…

[Holy crap, this is so good! It's angsty, sweet, satisfying, and delicious! These two are such a perfect match! I'm going to eat and eat and eat and eat... (buries head in food)]

[Who in their right mind only confesses their love and introduces themselves after seven years of marriage?! These two are so eloquent, I'm crying because I'm illiterate! Who's still criticizing the actor for being uncultured?! [crying]]

[Speaking of which, they became a couple not long after they recognized each other, and this must be the first time they've called each other boyfriend and girlfriend.]

[Great! So these two came to a dating reality show to rekindle their first love! Let's congratulate this male guest on successfully finding a partner!]

This film studio has such a great environment; it's perfect for a date.

The wet stone pavement underfoot reflected a bright light, and the willow branches along the river drooped down, swaying gently in the wind, creating ripples in the water.

Wen Yinhe and Lu Huaijin held hands together, Wen Yinhe's knuckles were more distinct, and he held Lu Huaijin's hand with a firm but not too heavy grip.

Both of their palms were warm, fitting together as if they were born to hold each other.

Lu Huaijin kept bringing the flower to his nose to smell it, looking at it again and again, and occasionally even putting it under Wen Yinhe's nose so he could smell it too, looking like he liked it very much, and couldn't help but exclaim, "This flower is really beautiful."

Wen Yinhe stared at him intently, her voice soft as if melting into water, flowing into Lu Huaijin's heart: "Not as good-looking as you."

The viewers in the live chat erupted in screams, exclaiming that the internet was going crazy.

Lu Huaijin's smile was so sweet it was almost overflowing with honey. He couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his face. Flowers landed on his handsome face, and his bright, joyful eyes were even more dazzling than the flowers. He could hardly withstand the overwhelming happiness.

Wen Yinhe wiped a petal off his face, her voice even lower and softer: "Do you like it?"

Lu Huaijin's nose and below were obscured by flowers, revealing only a pair of deep black eyes. He narrowed his eyes slightly, then suddenly pulled away from the bouquet and quickly kissed Wen Yinhe's lips, showing a rare moment of innocence: "I like you more."

This time, Wen Yinhe covered his mouth, his face flushed, looking so sweet he was about to faint on the spot.

The screen was flooded with "Ahhh" and "Oh my gosh~~" comments, it was so sweet it made me want to roll on the floor!

After the couple returned from their sweet stroll, the other guests also came down one after another.

Everyone greeted each other.

Lu Huaijin asked the production team for a vase, put the flowers he was holding into it, and placed it in the center of the dining table.

Wen Yinhe went to the kitchen and brought out the breakfast he had made that morning, and also gave Lu Huaijin a dumpling.

Lu Huaijin ate half of it and stuffed the other half into Wen Yinhe's mouth.

Wen Yinhe was worried that it wasn't enough for him and wanted to continue serving him, but Lu Huaijin resolutely refused.

"Don't worry about me, I'm not hungry," Lu Huaijin said, resting his chin on his hand and admiring the way the boy looked so adorable while eating. He raised an eyebrow slightly. "If you don't eat properly, I'll feed you?"

Wen Yinhe wasn't that shameless; upon hearing this, he indeed dared not say anything more.

The main point is that if Lu Huaijin really put the chopsticks to his mouth, he would have no way of refusing.

Then he'll be the only one who's shy.

Seeing that Lu Huaijin was only staring at Wen Yinhe without eating, Xiao Jue politely asked with concern, "Mr. Lu, aren't you going to eat?"

Lu Huaijin had been waiting for this question from them, and immediately turned to look at them with an arrogant air, his eyes and brows brimming with pride:

“I’ve already eaten. Yinhe got up this morning to make it especially for me. Honestly, he’s gone to so much trouble for me. I don’t know what to do with him.”

Wen Yinhe coughed lightly, then quietly buried his face in the bowl, his ear tips flushing slightly.

"..." Xiao Jue responded with a formulaic smile, "Mr. Wen is so good to President Lu, President Lu is so lucky."

Lu Huaijin nodded with satisfaction. That was it.

Xiao Jue maintained his smile: "..."

He just asked that one question.

An Zicheng noticed the very eye-catching bouquet of flowers next to Lu Huaijin and couldn't help but ask, "Did you pick these flowers together when you went out earlier? They're so beautiful."

Xiao Jue's brow twitched; he had a bad feeling.

really.

Lu Huaijin abruptly turned to look at An Zicheng, his gaze intense, giving him a "you're very teachable" look, but his expression remained calm as he said:

“After Yinhe made me breakfast, he didn’t eat first. He insisted on going out to pick wildflowers for me and said I was prettier than the flowers. Oh dear, I just can’t do anything with him.”

An Zicheng: "..."

The food in my mouth suddenly didn't taste good anymore.

Wen Yinhe hurriedly stuffed half a dumpling into Lu Huaijin's mouth, his face flushed. The redness on his ear tips had spread all the way to his ear roots. He was the one who truly couldn't do anything about Lu Huaijin.

The viewers in the live chat were laughing so hard they wanted to die.

Why did you two provoke them?

[Tsk tsk, this is what happens when you mess with couples in love. Cool is just bombarded with dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).]

【Aaaaaaah, I love dog food! Please don't hesitate to shower me with dog food! Woof woof woof!】

During breakfast, Wen Yinhe noticed that the crew members were constantly busy downstairs, looking somewhat anxious, and he wondered what had happened.

When the actual game time arrived, everyone's ominous premonition was indeed confirmed.

Tianyin apologized to everyone inside and outside the live stream:

"I have some very bad news to share with you. Due to some equipment malfunctions that may affect the upcoming live broadcasts, today's live broadcast has been temporarily cancelled, and the games scheduled for today will be automatically moved to tomorrow."

"The incident happened suddenly, and Ali would like to express her sincere apologies to all the guests present, as well as all the viewers in the live broadcast room. The production team is urgently contacting professionals, and we believe the machine will be repaired by tomorrow, so please don't worry too much."

"After breakfast, the production team will close the live broadcast room, collect all the live broadcast equipment, and carry out repairs and inspections one by one. The broadcast time tomorrow is still tentatively scheduled for 9:00 AM. We hope that we can meet everyone again in perfect condition then."

"Finally, I sincerely apologize. A new game awaits you tomorrow morning at nine o'clock. See you there!"

The live chat was immediately flooded with question marks and groans.

Jiang Hengchuan looked suspicious: "Huh? Really? It's not like last time, where they pretended to stop broadcasting but there were cameras secretly filming us!"

The assistant director, sweating profusely, came over to apologize: "Mr. Jiang, I'm very sorry, this time it's a real malfunction. As you can see, our switchboard can't even be turned on now, and the technical team is working like crazy!"

Jiang Hengchuan glanced at the messy pile of iron blocks, wires, and other things, but couldn't understand them either. He just clicked his tongue in exasperation.

"As expected, it's a small workshop, not up to standard. It broke down after only a few days. Could it have been salvaged from a scrap yard?"

The assistant director's anger surged to his head, and he clenched his fists.

He took a deep breath, silently admonishing himself that he couldn't afford to offend anyone and shouldn't ruin things, so he could only smile obsequiously.

Because of the show's past record, many people present actually had doubts about this incident.

But this time, the production team actually put away all the live streaming equipment in front of all of them.

Everyone was busy making phone calls and looking up information, looking completely overwhelmed, as if they really had no time to deal with them.

Wen Yinhe wanted to go over and take a look, hoping it could be fixed before tomorrow.

However, before he could get there, a staff member suddenly walked over with an apologetic look and said, "In order to prepare for tomorrow's game, we may need to ask some of the guests to go out and do some hidden tasks."

The people whose names were mentioned are: Lu Huaijin, Xiao Jue, Du Ruopu, Xiao Ye, and Tao Miler.

Those who remained were: Wen Yinhe, Shu Baoer, An Zicheng, Zheng Shuming, and Jiang Hengchuan.

Half of them left, and half remained.

The nanny van was already parked outside, so Wen Yinhe had to say goodbye to Lu Huaijin in a hurry and personally see him into the car.

However, only the viewers in the live stream know that the live stream has never stopped until now.

【Wait, weren't they saying they were going to stop broadcasting? It's still watchable, isn't it? (scratching head)】

[Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap... This is going to cause trouble!]

[This stealth filming is so cool! Who can beat you, Ali? You know what I mean, right? (winking)]

Viewers watched helplessly as the van towed the group to a private movie theater.

Everyone got off the car with bewildered expressions and entered the cinema. The room had a huge screen, and opposite it was a row of sofas.

Everyone sat down on the sofa and couldn't help but speculate.

"What are we doing? Watching a movie?" Xiao asked curiously, looking around with excitement for a day trip.

With the romantic sensibilities of a novelist, Du Ruopu speculated, "Could they have prepared some kind of surprise? A pre-recorded love confession? A marriage proposal?"

“Impossible,” Xiao Jue rejected outright, giving Du Ruopu a blunt look. “If that were the case, I shouldn’t be sitting here.”

Du Ruopu understood the deeper meaning in his words, her face suddenly turned red, and she dared not look Xiao Jue in the eyes again.

Xiao Ye and Du Ruopu's guesses were too kind, unlike the show's style. Lu Huaijin had a vague suspicion in his mind.

The next second, the screen in front of me turned on, and the image that appeared was the hotel's surveillance footage.

The group's expressions changed immediately, realizing the production team's intentions.

Xiao Jue reacted quickly: "Could it be that the live stream hasn't ended yet?"

The viewers in the live chat were stunned. Before they could even express their praise for Ali's cunning and treacherous nature, the elusive Tianyin had already appeared in the darkened theater.

"As you may have noticed, yes, our live stream is not over yet. We're just kidding you again, haha. Has anyone been fooled by us?"

"The malfunction is real, and the game pause is real, but we still have a backup machine, didn't expect that, did you? The incident happened so suddenly, our brilliant and resourceful directing team had a flash of inspiration and quickly devised an Easter egg game."

"So, I hereby announce that everyone is welcome to the eighth Easter egg game!"

"Are you curious about what the other person says about you when you're apart? You're together all the time, do you ever get annoyed with the person next to you? After all these years of living together, have you really never been fake, pretentious, or deceitful?"

"Now, I'm giving you a chance to see what the other person thinks of you from God's perspective. Enjoy it to the fullest!"

"The Seven Year Itch Season 2, Episode 8: The Observation Room Surprise Attack – Now Begins!"

Holy crap! Ah Li, you...you're really something else! (Thumbs up)

I'm speechless. They're practically begging people to divorce! Oh, they're already divorced? Never mind then.

[What a genius director! He even managed to get the guests involved when the equipment malfunctioned, hahaha! So clever! How did he come up with the idea of ​​splitting the guests into pairs and having half of them watch the monitor in such a short time?!]

Indeed, some money should be earned by those with brains...

But those people in the hotel can't just suddenly reveal their own secrets for no reason, can they? That would be just plain crazy. (scratching head)

The production team naturally took this into account.

So Wen Yinhe, who was left at the hotel, watched helplessly as the staff brought in a bunch of game consoles with apologetic expressions.

There are handheld consoles, PS5s, and even two arcade machines.

Jiang Hengchuan, who was originally planning to go upstairs to sleep, stopped in his tracks, turned around, and plopped down in the living room without moving.

After all, there isn't a huge screen upstairs.

An Zicheng hugged an arcade machine so tightly he couldn't move.

Even Shu Bao'er and Zheng Shuming each grabbed a handheld game console and curled up on a single sofa in the corner, not moving an inch.

Wen Yinhe had never played a game before, so he was quite eager to try it out. He figured the production team had technicians to fix it, so they wouldn't need him. He curiously approached the production team and touched and looked at everything.

Seeing that he looked like a complete novice, An Zicheng immediately pulled him over, patted his chest, and said, "Come on, little brother will show you how to fly."

He dragged Wen Yinhe to a two-player arcade machine, turned on the most classic "King of Fighters", and guaranteed to get Wen Yinhe hooked from the start!

No boy can resist a video game console! Of course, girls can't resist either, hahaha!

We can't leave now, we're completely stuck.

Human decoys are considered to be of any age.

But everyone's too engrossed in playing games, nobody's chatting.

Just then, the production crew brought in another truckload of ice buckets filled with various types of alcohol.

White, red, beer, distilled spirits, cocktails...

It has everything.

The men who were engrossed in playing games on the spot immediately brightened up when they saw this.

At this point, the program team's purpose is crystal clear!

First, use a game console to keep everyone in one place. After playing for a long time, won't they get thirsty? And if they get really into the game, won't they get carried away?

At this moment, if a bottle of chilled, sweet and refreshing wine were right in front of you, who could resist taking a sip or two?

And nobody is even taking care of it.

They can play as long as they want, drink as much as they want; the whole day belongs to them alone.

Who could resist this temptation?

[Hahahaha, this is it! Teacher Jiu is here, he'll spill everything he should and shouldn't have said!!!]

[More importantly, sometimes the actual situation might not be that serious, but after drinking, people get carried away and tend to exaggerate, getting more and more excited as they talk, you all know what I mean... _(:з」∠)_]

Since they already had alcohol, An Zicheng made a deal with Wen Yinhe: he would teach him first, then they would have a PK (player versus player) competition, and the loser would have to drink a cup.

Wen Yinhe was clever and quick-witted. In just over ten minutes, he successfully completed his training and knocked out An Zicheng with a single move using the Great Serpent's Sunshine.

He immediately took a liking to Orochi, and refused to switch for the next five or six matches, saying that Orochi was the most handsome.

An Zicheng understood; this guy was obsessed with looks.

Wen Yinhe paused, his eyes flickering slightly, a blush creeping onto his face, as if he were a little embarrassed about what he was about to say:

"And don't you think his temperament is very similar to Huai Jin's? They are both very domineering, with great physiques, especially their legs, which are so long and very handsome."

An Zicheng: "..."

No, brother, I'm begging you, brother.

At this point, Wen Yinhe's romantic tendencies were beginning to show, but An Zicheng was so engrossed in the game that she didn't pay any attention to it.

Although it's a bit frustrating, it's not unbearable.

After losing three games in a row, An Zicheng chugged an entire bottle, then, unable to take it anymore, abandoned the arrivals counter and dragged Wen Yinhe to play handheld game consoles instead.

"Ugh, I'm not playing anymore! Let's try something else. You'll definitely like this one too. Come on, let's play online!"

Wen Yinhe had also drunk two cups. He had thin skin and his face was flushed easily. At this moment, two faint red patches appeared on his fair cheeks, and his clear and bright eyes were full of interest. He looked like a peer of An Zicheng.

Lu Huaijin stared intently at Wen Yinhe on the screen, unable to resist licking his lips, his eyes darkening.

Holy crap, so cute?

What's the difference between this and boys growing up?

He was a workaholic and naturally didn't have a game console at home, so he never knew that Wen Yinhe would be interested in games.

But thinking about it, it makes sense; new things are bound to be interesting.

Lu Huaijin secretly decided that after he finished recording the show and went home, he would immediately buy a bunch of games. He had never played any of them before, so he would teach Wen Yinhe once he learned how to play them.

Whoever loses will have to take off a piece of clothing. Isn't that much more interesting than losing and having to drink? Yinhe will definitely be happier.

Of course he was happy too.

[Please, stop playing games and start talking about something dirty! I admit I'm a pervert, so when are we going to talk about dirty stuff?! I can't wait any longer, I really want to hear it!!!]

A group of people played games for more than two hours straight, and finally got tired, so they all collapsed on the sofa and lay there like corpses.

The viewers in the live chat are almost exhausted, but they're tough and can wait!

Everyone had drunk a little bit of alcohol, and were slightly tipsy, but not drunk.

It seems the effort wasn't enough.

Fortunately, the production team left behind a powerful assist.

finally.

An Zicheng, young and energetic, was destined to be anything but still. After lying down for a while, he suddenly jumped up under the expectant gazes of thousands of viewers, drank the last bit of wine in the bottle, and slammed it on the table with a "thud," attracting the attention of everyone present.

"It's still early today, and playing games is boring. Let's play the King's Game and hear some gossip. The rules are simple: everyone takes turns being the king, and then you spin this bottle. Whoever it lands on can ask that person a question."

"If the other party is unwilling to answer, they must drink a glass of wine. If they accidentally bump into themselves, they have to start over. If there are no objections, I will start first."

An Zicheng didn't give anyone the right to refuse. The group of drunk people were already lying there too lazy to move, and they didn't intend to move their butts after hearing this.

The King's Game was thus forced to begin.

An Zicheng excitedly rubbed his palms together, placed the wine bottle upside down in the middle of the table, and spun it hard.

The bottle spun rapidly, and then, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the bottle's mouth slowly pointed at Wen Yinhe.

Wen Yinhe looked completely bewildered, as if he hadn't yet come to his senses.

"Haha, I finally caught you!" An Zicheng had gotten quite familiar with Wen Yinhe over the past few hours. He struck a fighting pose like a character from a game, his face flushed from drinking, exuding a strong sense of adolescent chuunibyou. "Brother Wen, take this!"

Wen Yinhe: "..."

Is it too late to run now?

An Zicheng had always felt that Wen Yinhe was too shy, so he couldn't resist taking the opportunity to ask some sensational questions.

However, I was also afraid of scaring people away right away, so after thinking about it, I asked a slightly gentler question.

What's your favorite position? Why?

Lu Huaijin's eyes lit up, and he sat up straight, thinking to himself, "Wonderful! I want to know the answer to this question too."
