Cen Yu looked at Xie Jinshen, who was staring intently at him, and said, "Let's go back."

After saying that, he returned to the living room... Seemingly finding it too troublesome to go back to his original seat, he stood directly behind the sofa, causing Li Yanxiao and Jiang Jueming to turn around.

"What are you doing standing at the back?" Jiang Jueming asked.

"Aren't you going to sit here?" Li Yanxiao glanced at the empty seats next to him and Jiang Jueming.

“If you’re tired of sitting, stand for a while.” Cen Yu said, then pointed to Zhan Kongqing next to him, “Little Zhan can sit here.”

Zhan Kongqing: "..." Actually, he didn't really want to get involved in this strange and chaotic situation either.

So he pretended not to hear and continued to look up intently at the variety show on the screen, as if he were seeing an alien for the first time.

This small interaction naturally sparked another round of speculation in the live chat, especially among a few CP (couple) fans who were fighting fiercely. Cen Yu glanced at it and found that apart from the American fans, it was just a few very niche IDs making a fuss—

[Your wife is also my wife: Who understands! This is too much!]

Cen Yu: "..."

He felt that the ID looked familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere before.

When he returned, the variety show happened to show the loud noise in the room before Ning Yiran opened the door, and her very surprised expression after she opened the door.

This is completely different from Ning Yiran's usual glamorous and popular appearance; she looks a bit haggard.

Fans are also feeling sorry for Ning Yiran right now, explaining in the comments that her schedule is too tight and that her company is being inhumane, which is why the beautiful woman looks so haggard.

But some with a keen sense of smell noticed something different about the atmosphere—

[...I have a feeling she's afraid of something?]

[Wasn't this segment of the show planned out in advance? Did Ning Yiran really not know?]

[Impossible! Just between you and me, I've worked on similar shows before. These things always require going over the script and flow with the celebrities beforehand. Purely impromptu events are unlikely...]

Cen Yu stood behind the sofa, looking at Ning Yiran in the picture.

Because it was a fixed camera, although everyone could tell that Ning Yiran looked a little haggard, they just assumed that she was too busy with her schedule, and those "conspiracy theories" didn't attract much attention.

Until Ning Yiran drew Mu Fengyin's room—

The audience already knew the names of the rooms where the guests would be staying, so when Ning Yiran drew her room, there were already some hidden fans shipping the two of them.

It wasn't until Cen Yu spoke up, saying that they could also accompany Ning Yiran.

[...I'm jealous.]

[It's definitely jealousy!]

My sister-in-law is angry (shy)

[Can't you guys who ship CP (couple) fans go away? This is a scene featuring a beautiful woman and Mu Fengyin.]

Cen Yu: "..."

Being shot innocently, I feel so helpless.

In the scene, Ning Yiran seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and directly chose Cen Yu and Zhuang Zemin to accompany her.

In reality, they walked for quite a while, but in the variety show, they were only filmed arriving at Mu Fengyin's house.

And the scene of Mu Fengyin lying on the bed without wearing pajamas...

The three of them were tiptoeing in the scene, while Mu Fengyin lay on the bed, seemingly unaware that the three had arrived. The production team also added a lot of on-screen text.

—Then an advertisement appeared.

[...You really do know how to get into ads (laughs wryly)]

[The lifestyle of top celebrities is quite Westernized, huh!]

[Nine episodes already! A full nine episodes! This is the first time I've seen a top star selling sex appeal (not really)]

Cen Yu stood there. The system had disappeared right after he finished speaking, but now, having apparently found something, it was chattering away again—

"Reporting to the host," the fat cat said, sounding aggrieved. "This part really wasn't in the novel!"

I swear you read the entire script!

Cen Yu was not surprised by the system's survey results.

From the novel's perspective, the protagonist is Xie Jinshen—

Of course, the story won't delve into the emotional journey of Cen Yu, the scumbag ex-boyfriend. Their past is only briefly mentioned, with just a few strokes. The story focuses on how the two met on campus, followed by Cen Yu's participation in a talent show.

In order to depict how much of a scumbag Cen Yu is, the novel portrays him as a major villain in the early stages.

They threatened Xie Jinshen backstage during the talent show, demanding that he not reveal their relationship.

Even knowing that Xie Jinshen "had no money," she still insisted that he would rather not work ten jobs than not vote for her.

He arranged for Xie Jinshen to be his personal assistant, monitoring Xie Jinshen's movements at all times.

It wasn't until the "honest guy" Xie Jinshen made a comeback and truly became a big star that Cen Yu, the ex-boyfriend, left the scene due to the exposure of their relationship and Xie Jinshen's shameless PUA behavior.

Let Cen Yu look at this story from a different perspective now.

How could Cen Yu, a person with no background, have the ability to arrange for Xie Jinshen to become an assistant at Yunxing?

He kept emphasizing "don't let the relationship be exposed," as if that was his Achilles' heel... But for someone like Xie Jinshen, that was also his weakness.

He deliberately released this weakness just to entice Xie Jinshen to take the bait.

Cen Yu watched the commercials on TV, carefully recalling Xie Jinshen's behavior.

Judging from the other person's personality, this person should find it difficult to accept Cen Yu leaving their side and being out of their control. However, whether it was recording a variety show or the previous events, Cen Yu was not always in the other person's sight.

"Could you scan me?" Cen Yu suddenly asked. "Do I have some kind of listening device on me?"

[Host, please wait a moment.] The fat cat scanned Cen Yu as instructed.
