After the engagement banquet, Nan Qing and Gu Beiyan returned to the villa with the production crew as usual to continue filming the show.

It's just funny that a dating reality show, which was only on its third day of airing, already had couples formed.

The director's feelings were extremely complicated. On the one hand, the show's popularity exploded, and "Heart Signal" occupied half of the top ten trending topics.

On the other hand, the entire recording schedule was disrupted...

According to the original plan, the guests were supposed to gradually develop their relationship through a series of interactions and tasks. But now, the two of them skipped all the steps and went straight to the finale, becoming a couple.

If we continue to force them into the original dating schedule, it would seem deliberate and unnecessary.

But removing them completely wouldn't be appropriate...

So the program's planning team held a meeting overnight, drinking cup after cup of coffee, and finally, at 3 a.m. that day, they finalized a plan that would overturn all previous program formats.

The next morning.

When Nan Qing and Gu Beiyan came downstairs together again, everyone was no longer surprised.

Compared to yesterday morning, they are now officially engaged...

Moreover, after yesterday's unexpected engagement party, nothing I see anymore will seem strange.

However, compared to the other guests, Nan Qing and Gu Beiyan were quite calm, with one preparing breakfast and the other waiting to start eating.

When Bai Youyuan and others inquired about her, Nan Qing did not hide the fact that she and Gu Beiyan had met for the first time three days ago.

At least in this world, that is certainly the case.

When it was nine o'clock, the producer and cameraman appeared on time.

"Ahem," the producer cleared his throat, holding the new proposal. "Ladies and gentlemen, after careful consideration by the production team, due to some uncontrollable factors, we have decided to make some adjustments to the subsequent recording format."

Uncontrollable factors? Everyone present smiled knowingly, and Nan Qing blinked guiltily, it seemed... it really was the two of them who disrupted the rhythm of the program.

"We've changed our recording plan for the next four days to 'National Romance Producers,' an immersive romance variety show where the audience has 100% control!"

“Every day, we randomly select 100 lucky fans from the live stream to vote on the day's couple pairings.” The producer paused, glancing teasingly at Nan Qing and Gu Beiyan, who were sitting close together, and added:

"Of course, this also refers to all our guests."

Simply put, if the fans want to cause trouble, that'll be fun!

Everyone looked at Nan Qing and Gu Beiyan, as if they were watching a good show.

Nan Qing poked Gu Beiyan's hand. "Gu Beiyan, maybe we'll have to break up for now?" She had read the fan comments online; the fans of this show were all a bunch of adorable, lively people.

She's certain that if the show gives the pairing rights to the fans, the fans will definitely cause trouble!

Gu Beiyan remained calm, glancing at her eager little expression, which shattered her little scheme.

"Won't."

He took out his phone and had someone send out another message using the Gu Group's official account.

[Gu's Group V: Dear fans of the show "Heartbeat Signal", the CEO says that if any viewers voted for our CEO @Gu Beiyan and Gu's Young Madam @Mu Nanqing as a couple during the show, they can send a private message to our official account with proof of their vote to receive a super big gift!]

They even arranged for people to constantly spam the live stream chat to ensure that viewers who were eligible to vote could see the message.

【Great, those damned capitalists, another day of being manipulated. Vote for me, vote for me, vote for me! I will never yield to my sugar daddy, I will never!!】

[Hilarious! This domineering CEO has his own methods.]

[You have to admit, it's brutal, but it works!]

So, could the lucky fans who were selected by the show's producers say something?

[Raise your hand! Raise your hand! I'm one of the lucky ones! I originally wanted to see the domineering CEO get his comeuppance... but thinking about it, I'll go with the flow~]

Actually, I'm not really curious about what's in that "huge" gift package; I just really want to see the domineering CEO and the rich girl.

【Ughhhhhh, why wasn't I selected?!】

Who says money isn't everything? Who said that?!

I'm very curious, what will the result be?

I'm so envious!

[Program Production Team: Another Miscalculation]

[...]

The result was indeed not much of a surprise. In fact, because most fans voted for "Yan Qing CP", the other guests could not be paired up at all.

There was no other way; in the end, each person had to give two votes, which resulted in today's final date couple.

Nanqing*Gu Beiyan 100 votes.

Bai Youyuan*Xie Chi 24 votes

Qu Sheng*Lian An 19 votes

Xie Chi*Shen Yao 17 votes

Shen Yao*Jiang Fan 15 votes

......

The moment the voting results were announced, Shen Yao silently shrank back and quietly moved to the side, trying to stay as far away from Xie Chi as possible.

His facial expressions were almost out of control, his mouth twitching repeatedly. What a bizarre pairing!

Why did 20 votes go to him and Xie Chi for couple pairings?!

Are netizens these days so tolerant?

However, because Bai Youyuan and Xie Chi received more votes, the two straight men narrowly escaped elimination. Otherwise, this show would probably have generated another epic trending topic.

Nan Qing and Gu Beiyan were having a lot of fun, and in every round of voting, they were paired up.

For Gu Beiyan, being able to stay with Nan Qing was all he wanted.

For Nan Qing, nothing had changed; she was still the same person.

Although Gu Beiyan's personality is quite different from before in this life, appearing cold, he is actually the same at heart.

Moreover, in this life, he truly understands her incredibly well!!

Every morning, the breakfast I make is something she really, really wants to eat; it's like it knows her inside and out.

After the dating reality show ended, Gu Beiyan went to the Mu family every day without fail to make his presence known.

Finally, six months later, he and Nan Qing officially held the wedding he had been looking forward to for so long.

In this life, both of them lived a long time. Gu Beiyan lived to be 91 years old, and Nan Qing was 88 years old that year.

In his final moments, Gu Beiyan uttered words that shocked Nan Qing for a long time.

"My love..."

"Promise me, whether it's Qin Mobei, or Shen Moqiu, or Xiao Mobai..."

"Always remember, Gu Beiyan is different..."

end.
