Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Pei Simo, you are awake

The night breeze is a bit cold.

They played games for a while and then went into the house.

There is still one hour left before the show is finished.

Wen Yunzhi was sitting on the sofa when his cell phone suddenly vibrated.

She lowered her head and saw that it was a WeChat message from Cheng Na.

Cheng Na: The interview has been cancelled. I’ll arrange it for you when I’m free.

Interviews are indeed very sensitive nowadays, and any question will be awkward.

Wen Yunzhi found an OK emoticon and sent it over.

The director looked at the six guests sitting on the sofa, and then said: "Before finishing today's recording, we have one last thing to do."

【Wow wow wow, it’s time to choose the guests of your dreams again. 】

【So will there be any changes today? 】

[Can you please announce who they chose yesterday? ]

Director: "Now, everyone, please go to rooms 1-6 in the order in which I call your names. Before we choose our favorite guests, we need to announce yesterday's selection list to everyone."

After the director finished speaking, he started calling out the names in order.

The first one is Pei Simo, followed by Wen Yunzhi, Lin Wei, Shen Jichuan, Song Yixing, and Gu Yan.

Wen Yunzhi walked into Room 2, sat down on a chair, and watched the staff hand her two envelopes.

She flipped through them and found two envelopes that had been used. She looked up and asked, "Is this... the envelope from yesterday?"

The staff member replied: "Yes, this is the envelope that you selected your favorite guest yesterday. You can open it now."

Wen Yunzhi opened one of the envelopes and took out the letter paper.

There are only three simple words on it.

The handwriting is a bit erratic, and it is hard to understand what the person was feeling when he wrote it.

He only wrote the word "Wen" on it and signed it as Gu Yan.

Wen Yunzhi: ...

Gu Yan also chose her.

There is a feeling of surprise and not surprise.

What’s surprising is that even though she’s so ooc, Gu Yan still chose her.

It's not surprising because Gu Yan is the male lead after all, so it's normal for him to choose her as the female lead.

Wen Yunzhi picked up another envelope and used 0s to guess the owner of the envelope.

There aren't many words when I open it, only six.

But the handwriting is vigorous and powerful, and you can tell that it has been practiced.

On the letter paper were the three words "Wen Yunzhi" and the signature was Pei Simo.

[Are these two competing to be cooler? ]

【Everyone go to Pei Simo's live broadcast room, I am dying of laughter. 】

[Yes, yes, yes, Mommy, Wen Yunzhi, how dare you do that. ]

Many netizens immediately switched to the live broadcast room after hearing the barrage.

Pei Simo's live broadcast room was immediately flooded with a large number of people who were just watching the show.

[The camera is focused on the letter paper. I want to see what Wen Yunzhi wrote.]

【Hahahaha oh my god, let the newcomer take a look. 】

As the bullet screen urged, the camera once again focused on Pei Simo's letter.

In addition to Pei Simo's name, there was also a long string of flying words on his letter paper.

——Stop making excuses. As long as I am alive, you are alive too. There is no such coincidence in the world. Admit it, you have a crush on me.

The camera quickly moved away and aimed at Pei Simo.

There was no expression on Pei Simo's face, but if you looked closely you could see that the corners of his mouth were raised, and his eyes were gentler than usual, as if he had seen something he liked.

[Boss Pei, what are you laughing at? ? ? ]

【You really scare me. 】

【So you fell for this. 】

The staff handed a new envelope to Pei Simo, "Mr. Pei, now you can write down the guest of your choice for today."

Pei Simo took the letter and wrote his name on it without hesitation.

But it's not just a name, there's also a sentence.

The camera was not aligned, which left the audience in suspense.

[I took 0 seconds to guess "Pei Simo's dream guest", you can try it too. ]

[I'm going to Sister Wen's live studio now. Bye. 】

On Wen Yunzhi's side, the staff had just handed her new stationery and envelopes.

"Teacher Wen, you can now write down the name of your favorite guest today."

Wen Yunzhi held the pen but did not write anything.

She is thinking.

What if she chooses Pei Simo, and Pei Simo, the affectionate second male lead, chooses her again.

Wouldn't it be easy for Pei Simo to repeat the same mistake?

But if you choose Gu Yan, there is no guarantee that the fate between the damned male and female protagonists will not cause any trouble again.

After much consideration, she finally wrote down Shen Jichuan's name.

When writing this name, Wen Yunzhi felt particularly guilty.

But she still stuffed the letter with Shen Jichuan's name on it into the envelope and handed it to the staff.

【Why do you think for so long? 】

[Yes, and it seems that she didn’t write Pei Simo. ]

[Ah? It can't be Gu Yan, in fact, Wen Yunzhi still can't forget it, right? ]

[I hope I can make it to tomorrow morning. I really want to know the result.]

When Wen Yunzhi finished writing his name and returned to the first floor, everyone else had already finished.

It turns out she had been thinking about it for so long.

[I'm late, who can tell me how the remaining four people were chosen. ]

[Song Yixing did not choose, Shen Jichuan chose Lin Wei, Gu Yan chose Wen Yunzhi, and Lin Wei chose Gu Yan. ]

【??? Wow, I really didn’t expect anyone.】

[Why did Shen Jichuan choose Lin Wei? Why did Gu Yan choose Wen Yunzhi? 】

"Okay, today's recording is over. We will gather in the living room at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning. The program team has arranged a mountain climbing activity for everyone. After the activity, the successful guests will be announced as well as the location of the evening date."

After the director finished speaking, the live broadcast room was immediately closed.

Today's recording ended at ten o'clock, and Wen Yunzhi's biological clock was already sleepy.

"I'm going to read the script. You guys should go to bed early. Good night." Song Yixing still kept his good habit of reading the script every night. He said hello and went upstairs.

Wen Yunzhi also yawned, "I'm going back to sleep too, good night."

After saying that, she walked upstairs. When Song Yixing heard her footsteps, he stopped and waited for her for a while.

Wen Yunzhi trotted over and took Song Yixing's arm, and asked curiously in a low voice, "Why didn't you choose?"

Song Yixing answered calmly, "I don't like any of them."

Wen Yun felt that Song Yixing seemed to have answered, but also seemed not to have answered.

But she read the book in a skipped manner, almost only reading the part about the heroine, and even forgot these details.

Seeing that Wen Yunzhi didn't say anything, Song Yixing suddenly seemed to think of something and asked hurriedly: "Yunzhi, if you are not sleepy, please accompany me to review the script. This play is extremely important to me, and I want to give my best performance."

"Sure." Wen Yunzhi agreed immediately.

Although Wen Yunzhi was indeed a little sleepy, he felt quite comfortable staying with Song Yixing. Besides, even if he was sleepy, he would have to watch short videos until late at night if he went back. It would be better to play with Song Yixing, so he did not refuse.

Seeing this, the others returned to their rooms.

Pei Simo returned to the room, sat at the desk and turned on the computer.

He was handling company matters on his computer, and only after he had replied to all the emails did he let out a sigh of relief, leaned back in his chair, and rubbed his brows.

Suddenly, the cell phone rang.

Pei Simo lowered his head and found that it was his assistant calling, so he immediately pressed the answer button.

"Boss Pei, we haven't found out what's wrong with Miss Wen yet."

"Well, no need to check."

The assistant paused for a moment and continued, "Boss Pei, there is indeed a problem with Zhang Ye's new project."

Pei Simo was not surprised by this result. "Withdraw investment and spread the news that Pei Group and Zhang Ye will never cooperate."

"Yes, but Mr. Pei...the board of directors wants you to give them an explanation about your sudden appearance on the dating variety show." said the assistant.

"It's none of your business."

"ah?"

Pei Simo looked at Wen Yunzhi's Baidu Encyclopedia on the computer.

"My words to those old fogies on the board."

"...It's none of your business."

Two hours later, Wen Yunzhi came out of Song Yixing's room.

She was about to go to her room next door when she heard rustling sounds coming from downstairs.

Wen Yun didn't know whether it was a mouse or something else, so he bravely walked downstairs.

But as soon as I reached the second floor, I heard Lin Wei's voice coming from the tea room on the second floor.

"Gu Yan, what does it mean that you chose Wen Yunzhi? You clearly told me that you were not interested in her."

Wen Yunzhi: Oh no.

What a great melon-eating physique she has.

Gu Yan hesitated, "I...I don't know either."

This was the first time since Wen Yunzhi arrived here that he felt that Gu Yan was not so confident.

Well, that's a good thing.

After Gu Yan finished speaking, the floor returned to silence.

Wen Yunzhi didn't want to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, so he turned around and planned to go back to sleep.

But the next second, Gu Yan's voice came over.

"I don't think I really like Wen Yunzhi, but when I wrote my name, I wrote her name unconsciously, and I always think that my behavior is weird, don't you think so?"

Wen Yunzhi stopped.

This is... indeed strange.

Lin Wei denied, "I don't think there's anything strange about you."

But then Lin Wei's sobbing could be heard again, "Ayan, I have given so much for you, and I don't even care about those rumors. You can't do this to me..."

Gu Yan heard Lin Wei crying and seemed to be in a panic. He quickly took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Lin Wei, "I don't have any, but I'm really confused now, and I always feel that I can't control myself. Can you let me be alone for a while?"

Wen Yunzhi saw this and discovered Gu Yan's problem.

He has self-awareness.

This is commonly known as awakening.

But the awakening is not particularly complete.

As for whether Gu Yan would truly wake up, she didn't know.

"Gu Yan, you are lying to me. I will never talk to you again." Lin Wei said and ran out of the tea room.

Wen Yunzhi hid behind a pillar and watched Lin Wei hurriedly run past her, returning to her room and slamming the door.

Gu Yan was not in a hurry to go back. He opened the bottle of beer that he had not finished that night and gulped it all down.

After finishing his beer, he turned off the light in the tea room and returned to his room.

Wen Yunzhi then let out a breath and moved out from behind the pillar.

"You were eavesdropping."

Suddenly, a clear male voice came from behind Wen Yunzhi. It was very soft, and even as he spoke, the breath he exhaled fell on the back of Wen Yunzhi's neck.

Wen Yunzhi was startled and jumped back.

She was about to scream, but someone behind her covered her mouth with his hands.

"It's me, Pei Simo."

Wen Yunzhi then realized that the man in pajamas in front of her was Pei Simo. She patted her heart, then raised her hand and patted Pei Simo's hand, "Are you sick?"

"What are you doing in the boys' dormitory so late at night?"

"I... had something to do. Now that it's settled, I'm going back to sleep. Good night."

Wen Yunzhi finished his words quickly like a machine gun, then suddenly raised his legs and tried to escape.

But Pei Simo stretched out his hand and leaned against the wall to block Wen Yunzhi's way.

"I just heard what Gu Yan said. What do you think he meant by that?"

"Yunzhi, can you understand?"

Wen Yunzhi raised his eyes and looked at Pei Simo.

It was too dark in here, but she could see Pei Simo's eyes flashing slightly.

And the ebony scent that comes with him.

It's inexplicably reassuring.

The two looked at each other, as if trying to find some clues from each other, and neither of them spoke first.

But after a while, Wen Yunzhi opened his thin lips, his voice soft and affirmative.

"Pei Simo, you're awake."
