44 044 The so-called surprise
◎Meet up.◎
Hearing Lu Sinian's righteous tone, Ren Lu rolled her eyes, obviously not wanting to talk to him any more.
"Did Si Yue leave the island?" She asked, remembering what happened before going to bed.
The man nodded: "I went back, and my father followed me. There was something urgent at the company."
Ren Lu curled her lips secretly. Lu Hui probably left not because of the company's advantages, but because he was bored and couldn't stand the loneliness on the island.
After all, this is not his territory. Although there are many beautiful women in bikinis, the risk of hooking up with them is too high. It is easy to get caught, so he finds an excuse to slip away early.
When Ren Lu and the others appeared in the living room, the camera was already on, facing them, and the recording began.
"Now that I'm here, are you acclimated to the island's climate?" Ren Lu changed her previous decadence, cheered up, put a smile on her face, and greeted the staff behind the camera.
"I've adapted quite well to the beautiful environment. Let's go meet up with the other guests first."
Under the guidance of the director, the couple immediately left the villa and came to the private beach, where the other three couples were already in place.
However, their arrival did not attract anyone's attention, because everyone's attention was on other people.
Under the heart-shaped flower arch set up in front of the beach are Peng Hongyu and Xu Shiqing.
Both of them were dressed up. Xu Shiqing stood there, wearing a white short dress with a layer of puffy tulle outside the hem, while Peng Hongyu knelt on one knee in front of her, holding a bouquet of flowers in his hand. At this moment, his mouth opened and closed, obviously saying touching love words.
The other two couples stood on both sides and watched the show, like guardians on the left and right.
Ren Lu and Lu Sinian looked at each other and tacitly quickened their pace, wanting to watch the show up close.
"Shiqing, this bouquet of flowers, this sea, and this island can all testify to my love for you. I wonder if you are willing to accept my feelings?"
When the two of them arrived, it was already coming to an end, and Peng Hongyu also said the most crucial closing words.
Ren Lu couldn't help but want to laugh when she heard this. Maybe she didn't hear the first half of the emotional journey, and only this sudden affectionate confession. She was completely unable to empathize with it and even found it corny.
Xu Shiqing half lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, and she looked completely shy.
The two of them were so engrossed in their performance that no one else disturbed them and they just sat there quietly as spectators.
Xu Shiqing did not take the bouquet immediately, but pricked up her ears to listen to the movements around her.
This was also what she and Peng Hongyu had discussed in advance. When they saw the beautiful scenery of the island, they wanted to have a super romantic moment and confess their love in the most beautiful place.
In fact, this scene and step is equivalent to a marriage proposal.
Now the grand confession ceremony is going on, but the effect has not met expectations.
Faced with such a romantic and almost sacred scene, the other guests did not react at all. Shouldn't they applaud and cheer and say they agree to him?
Why was there so much silence? How did other people react?
Xu Shiqing was in a dilemma. She really wanted to turn around to see other people's reactions, but facing the live camera, she couldn't look around, otherwise it would be distracting.
Her thoughts were a little confused and she was unsure, but she had to bite the bullet and continue, remaining shy, reaching out to take his flowers, and saying loudly, "I do!"
Fortunately, after she finished speaking, applause finally broke out around her.
The heavy stone in Xu Shiqing's heart finally fell, and a smile appeared on her face.
She looked up and saw Ren Lu and his wife coming over. They were also applauding. Xu Shiqing felt a little more relieved.
"Is this a proposal?" Ren Lu asked with a chuckle.
"Yes. We agreed before that every time we come across a particularly beautiful scenery, we will reminisce about the past. Then I will ask Shiqing again if she is willing." Peng Hongyu answered. As he said this, he turned his head and looked at Xu Shiqing. The two held hands tightly and looked very affectionate.
"Actually, I also said that we should just forget about it, after all, we're already married. But Hongyu insisted. He said that this is a relationship preservative, and it can also confirm each other's love in time and make them more determined to choose each other." Xu Shiqing echoed him.
"Young people really know how to have fun and be romantic," Chen Wan praised.
Zhai Jin immediately turned his head and looked over, saying disapprovingly, "Mr. Chen, I don't agree with what you said. We were not bad when we were young, and it was quite a sensation at the time."
"It was quite a sensation. I took out my phone to check the news during the breaks, for fear of missing out on any important news about the two of you."
When talking about the actress' official love affair when she was young, Yang Zhi, who is usually quiet, couldn't help but speak.
Soon the topic shifted from Xu Shiqing and his wife to Chen Wan and her husband, and everyone was chatting animatedly, which made Xu Shiqing and his wife feel a little uncomfortable.
Clearly, the two of them were so big on screen just now, being the focus of everyone's attention, I'm sure the audience in the live broadcast room were all eating sugar.
But in just a few words, the focus was shifted, and Chen Wan and her husband did nothing at all. They just changed the topic with a few words, which easily caused a sense of disappointment.
Ren Lu occasionally added a few words, but her eyes were always wandering, and Xu Shiqing's reluctant state did not escape her eyes.
In fact, she could understand that Xu Shiqing had always been the heroine that everyone admired, and other people had always been the foil for her in everything, but the situation had changed now.
From the moment Ren Lu and Lu Sinian joined the live variety show, the entire plot began to change. The butterfly's wings were flapping, shattering all the supporting plots and turning it into a matter of everyone's own ability.
The blogger couple Hong Qing Lv Yi have less traffic than real stars, and they show their love on the platform every day. They are not as mysterious as the domineering boss and secretary Ren Lu, so they are simply blocked from both ends.
"Mr. Lu, I heard that you are the owner of this island?" Zhou Shanshan kept in mind her identity as the host and got back to the topic.
"Yes, for now, but not necessarily in the future." Lu Sinian nodded, leaving the question in suspense.
"Hmm? Mr. Lu is planning to transfer the island?"
"As the name suggests, I bought this island for someone else." He blinked and started to keep the secret.
Ren Lu's eyelids twitched and she immediately turned to look at Lu Sinian.
"This island is called Mermaid, right? But they don't refer to human beings, but kind people. When I started searching for information, I didn't find the right place." Zhai Jin was also very interested.
He looked around as soon as he arrived. Not only was the scenery beautiful, the flow of people was not very large, and all kinds of recreational facilities were available. It was a perfect Feng Shui location and very suitable for filming.
"It's Ren's Ren Lu." Lu Sinian corrected.
As soon as he said this, there was a sudden silence. The guests were all a little surprised. Although this character was the same as Ren Lu's surname, no one thought about it for a moment. After his reminder, they suddenly understood.
"Ah~" Several people started to make a noise.
"So this mermaid is Ren Lu. No wonder she was given this name. Will this island be transferred to Ren Lu in the future?" Chen Wan took the lead in gossiping, looking very excited.
Lu Sinian nodded: "Yes, the construction facilities on the island are also based on her preferences. I hope Mrs. Lu likes it."
Ren Lu stared, she was also very surprised.
"This is the first time I've heard of it too. Why didn't you tell me before?" She tried to keep smiling and asked softly.
"Of course it's a surprise for you. Oops, I shouldn't have asked. I ruined the surprise." Chen Wan answered for him and couldn't help blaming herself.
Of course, she couldn't conceal the excitement on her face, which caused a lot of laughter in the barrage.
——Hahaha, stop making trouble, and say something about ruining the surprise. I see you are very happy.
——Tsk tsk, even the movie queen is addicted.
——I didn’t expect that in this live broadcast, Lu Luhengtong would be the first to show off, and show off such a big thing.
——Who said that? It was obviously Hongqing Luyi who showed off first, and he was proposing just now!
——Oh, those two hug each other every day and show off too much, to the point where no one cares anymore.
——Besides, it’s actually quite embarrassing. This island was bought by Lu Sinian for Ren Lu, and the decoration style is all based on Ren Lu’s preferences. Maybe they were planning to have a romantic moment on the island, but they got there first. Do you have any sense of boundaries?
"It's not a surprise. It's just that when I saw this island, I thought of her, just like seeing jewelry. I thought it was suitable, so I bought it." Lu Sinian said calmly, his tone was casual, as if he was talking about eating and drinking.
After hearing this, everyone fell silent again. Wow, this is truly a Versailles statement.
——Lu Sinian, will you die if you don’t pretend?
——Fuck, let’s fight with you rich people.
——Whoever it is, can you please let this pretentious person fall from grace right now? I can’t stand people showing off their wealth and pretending to be noble.
Ren Lu had a happy smile on her face, but she was actually worried in her heart.
What's wrong with Lu Sinian?
He never liked showing affection, and there was nothing to show about their affection in the first place. Mr. Lu was not interested in all this romance. Instead of wasting time on creating the atmosphere, he might as well just take off his clothes and have sex.
But now, he waited until the camera to reveal the name of the island, clearly to show how much he loved her.
This is extremely abnormal.
Four groups of guests were assigned the task of making money. This arrangement was obviously intended by the director team to make the guests suffer and improve the show effect.
"Director, after picking cotton last time, you still dare to set up this money-making task? It's very unfair!" Chen Wan was the first to say she refused.
"Yes, director. Last time the place was very unfamiliar, but President Lu came up with new ways to do it. Now he is the owner of the island, and this is his territory. How could he not know how to make money?" Even the honest man Yang Zhi couldn't stand it anymore and protested actively.
When the director heard this, he thought it made sense and was suddenly in a dilemma.
"We can replace the new content. Does anyone have any good suggestions?" He handed the task to the guests.
"The scenery here is beautiful. It's obviously a tourist destination. Why don't we go around and become travel bloggers?"
"Yes, yes, that's fine. We don't have to beg for food to look good. It's also fun for everyone to dress up nicely and eat and play at the same time."
"Yeah, this is a couples variety show, not a competition, why do we have to do so many things all day long!"
Everyone brainstormed and not only put forward suggestions, but also took the opportunity to vent their dissatisfaction with the program team.
Finally, the guests unanimously passed a resolution and decided to go on their own.
"Okay, then you decide for yourselves." The director compromised.
"Great, there are all kinds of water sports and diving at the public beach, let's go over there quickly. By the way, Mr. Lu, can we use the VIP channel if I tell you your name?" Chen Wan jumped up first, and seemed particularly impatient.
Lu Sinian nodded and gestured behind the camera. The assistant waiting on the side immediately led a few young people over.
"Follow the guide."
"Mr. Lu is very thoughtful." Zhai Jin gave him a thumbs up.
The other three groups each found a guide and left quickly, leaving Lu Sinian and his wife staring at each other in dismay.
"Where do you want to go?" he asked.
"Since you built this island specifically for me, I'll have to trouble Mr. Lu to take me around." Ren Lu shrugged.
The couple was about to leave when two people squeezed in.
"Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, do you mind taking us with you?" Huo Xiao grabbed Feng Yuwei's wrist and trotted over, appearing directly in the camera.
Feng Yuwei's face turned red, and she was obviously a little embarrassed.
