Rong Zhen died unexpectedly and was bound to a small, newly-released system. In their rookie phase, the person and the system couldn't snag any good missions, so they could only go to novel wor...
Chapter 90 Let’s go on a date
[I'm asking this in the family group right now. My relatives and friends are also confused after hearing about it. Right now, everyone's running around like wildebeests in a melon field. Wait for me to clarify things for you guys.]
No one expected that there was actually an insider peeking at the screen. After asking, they found out that the person came specifically to watch Young Master Wei recording a variety show.
In the end, instead of seeing Young Master Wei's joke, a secret of a wealthy family was revealed.
Wei Qiheng, unaware of the onlookers surrounding him, frowned and said to Rong Zhen after she finished her Q&A session, "It's actually not in your best interest to expose this now. The Qiao family hasn't said anything, so why are you so eager to distance yourself from them?"
For a young master who has received an elite education, self-interest is an instinct. He does not think it is wrong for Rong Zhen to take advantage of the Qiao family's relationship and seek benefits for herself after being kicked out of the Qiao family.
After all, the Qiao family took back everything. If they didn't even leave her with this little chance to survive, it would be too petty and narrow-minded.
"Do you think I can take advantage of them for free? I'm afraid that what I gain won't be as much as what I lose." Rong Zhen obviously had something else in her words.
Others might not understand the wit between their words, but Qiao Yuzhu, as one of the parties involved, could not help but understand it.
She bit her lip and said dissatisfiedly, "My family is not as heartless as you say. Even if you are resentful because of... you can't confuse right and wrong."
Rongzhen looked at her innocent expression, one that showed she trusted her family, and smiled meaningfully, "You'll soon find out whether I've been confusing right and wrong."
The Qiao family's plan to support Qiao Yuzhu by stepping on her was overturned by her, and Wei Qiheng fell in love with someone else. Under such circumstances, did Qiao Yuzhu think that the Qiao family could still treat her like a little princess as before?
The original owner had lived with them for so many years but hadn't received much care and love. Qiao Yuzhu, a daughter who had been lost and then found again, thought that blood ties alone could change the nature of those naturally cold-hearted people?
Definitely not. To put it bluntly, it’s all about interests.
The Qiao family raised the original owner, so even if she was not their biological daughter, they would not let her go for nothing. Only through marriage could her greatest value be realized.
Unfortunately, Qiao Yuzhu openly and secretly did not want to coexist with the original owner, and she also snatched Wei Qiheng away. After weighing the pros and cons, the Qiao family decisively abandoned the original owner, and by the way, made use of the waste to please Qiao Yuzhu, and sent her to a high position, so that she could repay the Qiao family after she succeeded.
Judging from the current situation and developments, their plan is bound to fail, and it will be difficult for the Qiao family not to reveal their true colors. I hope Qiao Yuzhu can still trust them like she does today.
Rongzhen had no intention of arguing with her now.
You know, for some people, they won't believe something unless it happens right in front of them, so why should she waste her breath?
"Are you okay?" Chu Xicheng looked worried after she sat back in her seat, and there was concern in his words.
Rong Zhen thanked him gratefully, "I'm fine. Be careful when you go up to answer questions later. They might set traps for you in their questions."
The program director monitoring the scene: "..."
I wanted to say that she was slandering me, but I felt I was in the wrong about what just happened, so I could only swallow my bitterness in silence.
Everyone in the live broadcast room was laughing about this, saying that she was too tough and straightforward, and only spoke the truth, so she would have no friends.
The commotion on the Internet did not affect the recording of the program for the time being. After Rongzhen came down, the question-and-answer session continued.
I don’t know if it’s because netizens are too mean or the program crew is inhumane, but almost every question that the guest draws is a sensitive topic related to them, and they have to answer it.
Fortunately, the guests were no pushovers either, and Rong Zhen had set a good example for them. They could either deal with it evasively like Qiao Yuzhu, or face it head-on like Wei Qiheng, leaving the program crew and netizens speechless.
When it was Yun Fanfan's turn, the online atmosphere had become calm and peaceful after several rounds of fierce competition. The question she drew happened to be very considerate and friendly, which made Rong Zhen feel the charm of the aura of a heartthrob again.
Li Jin benefited from Yun Fanfan's help, and the questions were not too tricky, so he passed them smoothly.
By the time Chu Xi got on the bus, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening.
Instead of falling asleep, netizens were very energetic and wanted to see his fun.
The first question I drew was: "Do you have any intention of developing a real relationship with a cat?"
Chu Xicheng looked towards Rong Zhen below the stage and uttered a single word from his thin lips: "Yes."
The members of the Wolf Cat Brigade who were waiting in the live broadcast room burst into tears of joy, and ran around to tell each other and waved flags and cheered.
Victory is coming, sisters, hope is coming, sisters.
Second question: "What do you think about becoming a son-in-law of a wealthy family?"
Chu Xicheng: "I have no opinion. I won't marry into a wealthy family."
Netizens booed, saying that of course you would not marry into a wealthy family now, because the little kitten who they previously thought was of noble birth is no longer a wealthy lady.
The third question: "Why are you on a dating show? Are you planning to get married, have children, or transition your career?"
Chu Xicheng answered as honestly as Rong Zhen: "I did have that plan. Fortunately, I didn't refuse the director's invitation at the time."
Otherwise you will miss the right person.
Many people understood the hidden meaning of his words and couldn't help but smile.
Although Chu Xicheng looks very young and is a celebrity, marriage and childbirth are still the mainstream in this world. When a young man wants to start a family and settle down, most people will bless him instead of mindlessly blocking or criticizing him.
After all, a man with a stable family and a successful career always seems more mature, reliable and has more charisma than a single playboy who is fickle.
Although this world is derived from a narcissistic novel, and entertainment and love are generally prioritized, it is not about mindless star-chasing and mindless love. Everyone is quite rational.
Before we knew it, the question-and-answer session was over and the clock struck midnight.
The program team finally announced the disbandment and reminded the guests to get up early the next day to participate in the group date activity.
After one night, someone on the Internet had already uncovered the secret of the real and fake daughter of the Qiao family, and also exposed part of the Qiao family's good plan, causing the Qiao family father and son who planned the whole thing to be helpless and furious at home.
Isn't that just incompetence? He only knows how to sell his daughter and use nepotism to lead the family up, but he doesn't think about making some achievements to bring the family to a higher level.
Now that their plan has failed and things have not developed as they expected, Father Qiao angrily puts all the blame on Rong Zhen for not cooperating.
"Damn this ungrateful little bastard. She's been raised by my family for so many years, and yet she's not even willing to cooperate."
Father Qiao could no longer maintain his gentle and refined face, and shouted angrily with a ferocious expression.
Qiao Da, sharing the same hatred for his enemy, cursed skillfully, "Don't worry, Dad. If this doesn't work, there's always another time. Once she's off the show, we'll have plenty of ways to deal with her."
Qiao Er rolled his eyes and said comfortingly, "Yes, big brother is right. Don't worry, Dad. How can a young girl who has not experienced much of the world escape the palm of your hand?"
Seeing that his father was still unhappy, Qiao San turned to talk about Qiao Yuzhu and Wei Qiheng's marriage, "That girl has some conscience and didn't compete with Yuzhu for her fiancé. Once our family successfully marries into the Wei family, good things are still to come. There's no need to get angry over someone you hate."
Under the persuasion of his three sons, Father Qiao soon smiled again and imagined with them the various benefits and conveniences that would come after he got into the Wei family.
They didn't know that worse was waiting for them. Even though they saw from the live broadcast that Wei Qiheng was obviously interested in Yun Fanfan, they didn't think there would be any changes in the marriage between the two families.
It was not until many days later that the Wei family proposed to cancel the engagement.
It is not yet time for that, and the cancellation of the engagement that shocked the entire Qiao family has not yet happened.
On the second day of the program recording, Rongzhen woke up early and went downstairs to find that someone had gotten up earlier than her.
"What delicious food are you making?" Rong Zhen followed the smell to the kitchen and saw Chu Xicheng busy inside wearing an apron, with curiosity on her face.
I didn’t expect that such a great movie star can cook, and he seems to be quite good at it.
Chu Xicheng heard her question and turned around to greet her: "Are you awake? The fried lotus flowers I made will be ready soon."
As he spoke, he turned sideways to show her.
I saw a few lotus petals wrapped in batter being fried in the hot oil pan. They were golden yellow and their original pink and white appearance could no longer be seen.
Although it’s not good to eat fried food in the morning, Rongzhen still couldn’t help drooling at the sight of fried lotus.
He actually cooked the lotus flowers they picked yesterday.
If she didn't give herself the courtesy to try some, she would feel guilty about all her hard work yesterday and would definitely have to eat a few more when they came out of the pot.
Seeing her greedy look, Chu Xicheng knew she was hungry. He took out two fried pieces for her to try, and reminded her, "Be careful of the heat. Remember to change into a pair of sneakers after eating, and wear loose and comfortable clothes."
He seemed to be saying it casually, but Rongzhen didn't dare to take it lightly and immediately nodded in agreement.
As the male lead, he must have his own information channels. Maybe he has already received the news and knows the arrangements of the program team for today.
The facts were just as she expected. Chu Xicheng learned that the program crew planned to let them go hiking after breakfast and would not come back at noon, so they had to prepare dry food for lunch in advance, so he specially reminded Rong Zhen.
Rongzhen understood and quickly finished the delicious fried lotus. She gave a thumbs-up and praised, "It's delicious. Fry some more so you can take some with you when you go."
Chu Xicheng thought so too and turned around to continue his work.
Rongzhen quickly went back upstairs to change her clothes, and when she came down again, the other guests were already there.
Yun Fanfan was still helping out in the kitchen.
Rong Zhen felt a sudden pang in her heart and went to take a look in the kitchen. She found that the person cooking inside was not Chu Xicheng, but Wei Qiheng, who wanted to get close to the heroine and was ready to show off his skills in front of her.
Seeing the two of them getting so close, Qiao Yuzhu naturally felt unwilling and wanted to squeeze in. Unfortunately, the kitchen was too small to accommodate three people at once. She could only stare at them from outside the door, hoping to prevent the two of them from sparking love.
Yun Fanfan felt creepy when she stared at him, and felt that Wei Qiheng was a disaster and he had to stay away from her in the future.
So when the program crew arranged for them to go hiking together after dinner, Yun Fanfan plucked up the courage to discuss with Li Jin to avoid the route up the mountain taken by Wei Qiheng's group and deliberately chose another route.
Wei Qiheng didn't notice it at first. After walking and stopping but still seeing Yun Fanfan and the others not catching up, he suddenly realized that they were avoiding him.
As for the reason, he probably knew why and was working hard to solve it.
Qiao Yuzhu, who is about to be "solved", knows nothing about this and is still immersed in the sadness of his infidelity. She wants to win him back while feeling sad.
However, she doesn't know that in the eyes of someone who no longer loves you, everything you do is wrong, and the more you do, the more you lose favor.
With nothing else to do, Qiao Yuzhu accidentally made a mistake.
