Director Yuan peeked out and looked at the screen on the computer next to him.

You won't be surprised if you don't look, because once you do!

This scene is absolutely breathtaking.

"This... Director Yuan, this definitely needs to be cut, right? If it airs, the whole program might get banned!" The staff member looked at the scene on the screen, which should almost be covered up with a mosaic, and silently recited the words "prosperity, democracy, civility, and harmony" in his mind.

"Whose room is this?" The more Director Yuan looked at the dark scene with the lights off, the more he felt that the moving figures looked slightly familiar.

I took a closer look at the room number that the device was connected to.

This...this isn't Chu Yu and Lu Xiangxi's room?

Holy crap, it's not even midnight yet, how dare they do that?

The production team rented a small villa with four floors for filming the variety show.

The guests all stayed on the top floor.

Lin Yang left the room and went straight to the bottom floor.

She wanted to go for a walk to give Xu Chengzhi some time to calm down.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Chu Yu smoking as soon as I stepped out of the lobby for some fresh air.

He leaned against the wall, a cigarette just lit in his hand.

But it definitely wasn't the first cigarette he'd just smoked; there were seven or eight cigarette butts scattered around his feet.

She instinctively wanted to quietly bypass it.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yu had sharp eyes and was stopped by him before he could even turn around.

"Lin Yang." Chu Yu stubbed out the cigarette he had just lit and called him by his name.

"Oh...what a coincidence, you're here for some fresh air too?" Lin Yang greeted him awkwardly, then suddenly remembered something and continued, "I remember I told you, don't call me by my name. I'm older than you, just call me Sister Lin."

Chu Yu smiled but didn't say anything about the title she requested.

"..."

"..."

The two remained silent, the surroundings eerily quiet except for the sound of the biting cold wind.

Lin Yang pulled her coat tighter around herself, pointed to the lobby, and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll go in first?"

She couldn't walk any further; it was too cold outside.

"Can you talk to me for a while?" Just as Lin Yang was about to leave, Chu Yu suddenly spoke up again, his tone humble as if he were begging her.

Lin Yang stopped and pulled her coat tighter around herself.

She glanced up at the machines flashing red lights everywhere, then lowered her gaze. "No, it's too cold outside."

I politely declined his request.

She didn't want to be recorded and have any dirt on her, which would only lead to another wave of cyberbullying.

"Let's go inside and chat for a bit, just a little while, okay?" Chu Yu kicked the cigarette butt off his foot and followed Lin Yang into the lobby.

Chu Yu smoked several cigarettes in a row, his body reeking of tobacco. Lin Yang frowned at the smell, and even keeping a distance of two meters didn't make her feel any better.

With cameras watching and the show about to air, it makes their relationship seem strained, and netizens will criticize her for being unfriendly.

well.

Lin Yang sighed silently to herself.

This won't work, that won't work.

Having suffered from cyberbullying multiple times, she felt utterly helpless.

There are several sofas in the lobby for people to rest on.

Lin Yang chose a seat furthest from Chu Yu, covered her nose, and asked, "What do you want to talk about? Go ahead."

"Tell me, what does it feel like to love someone?" Chu Yu casually took out a can of chewing gum from his pocket, poured out two pieces, and chewed them to get rid of the smell of smoke.

Without any preamble, Chu Yu bluntly asked this inexplicable question.

"You're asking me? You've got the wrong person, haven't you?" Lin Yang felt that Chu Yu was playing a trick on her.

Whether in her original world or this one, Lin Yang never understood love.
