The grouping results are: Jian Zhizhen and Li Nanyan, Zhai Qinghe and Qin Yubai, Xie Anxia and Zhou Sui, Xu Qiuyuan and Li Ze.

Subsequently, Lin Yi also announced the game rules.

The female guests blow up balloons, and the male guests pop them. The team that pops the most balloons wins.

Female guests may use an air pump, but male guests are not allowed to use any equipment.

On the surface, it tests the girls' lung capacity and dexterity, and the boys' physical strength.

In reality, what's being tested is whether this couple will feel sorry for each other.

If a girl cares about a boy, she definitely won't let him pop too many balloons, because it hurts his hand when the balloons pop.

If a guy cares about a girl, he definitely won't let her blow too many pills, afraid of tiring her out, so he'll spend a long time kneading one pill.

This is an old segment of the show, and many people used to be willing to give up the chance to win so that the other person would suffer less.

Only fake couples who hate each other would desperately try to inflate the numbers and sabotage each other.

There are also some fools who, if they like someone, will frantically blow up and pop balloons. They usually win the game but lose love.

After Lin Yi explained the rules, he gave each group time to discuss their tactics.

Li Nanyan, who was wearing sunglasses, glanced in Jian Zhizhen's direction before quickly looking away.

He was so angry with Jian Zhizhen last night that he couldn't sleep all night. When he woke up the next day, he had bags under his eyes, which made him look several years older. He had to wear sunglasses to cover them up.

Fortunately, today's recording was outdoors, and the sun was scorching, so it's normal for him to wear sunglasses.

He never expected that he would be paired with Jian Zhizhen today.

Jian Zhizhen, on the other hand, was quite frank. Since they had already been paired together, she walked towards him confidently and asked directly, "Do you want to win?"

The moment Li Nanyan heard her speak up, all the anger he had felt that night vanished.

She's still willing to talk to him, so he still has a chance.

But he still maintained his superior attitude, holding his head high: "I won't be so petty when recording the show. I'll cooperate well. I want to win."

“Okay.” Jian Zhizhen took out a small metal tube from his pocket, about the size of a cigarette.

This thing was invented by Chien Chih-chen. It's a small vacuum cleaner, specifically designed to clean nooks and crannies such as car seat crevices, bedside crevices, and cabinet crevices. It's easy to use, and she usually carries it with her.

Don't let its small size fool you; it's incredibly powerful. Just put a garbage bag on the back, and it can suck up a bagful of filth in no time.

She planned to make some minor modifications and turn the miniature vacuum cleaner into a balloon blower on the spot.

It's definitely better than the air pump provided by the production team.

Although Li Nanyan didn't know how to use this thing, he was already starting to get scared.

Because he personally experienced Chien Chih-chen's inventions, which were simply beyond human endurance!

He asked nervously, "You're going to use this to blow up balloons later? How long does it take to blow up one balloon?"

Jian Zhizhen thought for a moment and replied, "If I'm fast, I can do it in 0.5 seconds."

Li Nanyan's eyes behind his sunglasses were filled with terror: "No way!"

Jian Zhizhen asked, puzzled, "Huh? The director said the female guests could use tools. Don't you want to win too?"

Li Nanyan: "It's easy for you to blow up balloons, but I couldn't keep up with you even if I broke my arms!"

Jian Zhizhen understood, smiled, and glanced at the fruit laid out in the rest area behind him.

Don't worry.

I won't give you a chance to drag me down!

Soon, the competition officially began.

The first pair to appear were Qin Yubai and Zhai Qinghe.

Zhai Qinghe wanted to establish her image as a laid-back, non-competitive person, and since she did have some feelings for Qin Yubai, she symbolically used an air pump to slowly inflate a balloon.

Qin Yubai saw through her thoughts and politely asked her, "You don't want to win, but I do. Can you please not drag me down?"

Zhai Qinghe smiled awkwardly.

She had initially thought that it was an incredible stroke of luck that she and Qin Yubai had been paired together today.

Unexpectedly, he showed absolutely no mercy to women!

Zhai Qinghe had no other choice but to speed up the process slightly.

But it's still quite slow.

The second group consists of Xu Qiuyuan and Li Ze.

They were both quite proper, neither feeling sorry for each other nor harboring any deep hatred.

In order to win, we also try to blow up as many balloons as possible within the time limit.

...

During the second group match, Qin Yubai had just returned to the rest area when Zhou Sui pulled him aside.

Zhou Sui said with a smile, "I wrote the second chapter yesterday and sent it to you. Could you take a look and give me some feedback?"

He couldn't send it to his fans from his original timeline, and he was afraid that if he wrote it all by himself, he would get stuck in a rut. So he asked Qin Yubai to be his reader.

Qin Yubai then went over to take a look.

Zhou Sui changed the entire "intense and passionate" plot from yesterday.

Change it to childhood sweethearts who secretly love each other.

It was supposed to be a very sweet and innocent story, but for some reason, Zhou Sui always seems to write that the male lead has "red eyes," "holds the female lead's waist," and "tells her he'd give her his life"...

Qin Yubai also expressed his incomprehension: "Why does this man always have 'red eyes'? Does he have conjunctivitis?"

Zhou Sui smiled and said, "No, it's just an emotional state that readers enjoy reading."

The two of them chatted as if no one else was around.

The other guests also didn't pay attention to them.

However, many viewers noticed that:

[Wait a minute, Zhou Sui writes rebellious novels, not those 'red-eyed, desperate' kinds of literature, right? Does he have another persona?]
