Chapter 6 of the show was good, but it was a bit too much for the male guests.
The show is called "Love Detective Journey," and all the challenges are designed to test the depth of the couple's love.
Especially now that it's the third season, the regular guests have already passed the basic test in the previous two weeks, and the difficulty has been further increased.
As a guest traveler, one should naturally follow the example of others.
The female guests were gathered together, and the production team gave each of them a script.
"This morning's challenge requires everyone to act out a scene with their boyfriend based on the script. Guests, please read the script carefully and memorize it, and then perform it within the allotted time. After all the performances are finished, the judging panel in the observation room will give the final evaluation results."
"Lunch will be distributed according to your evaluation results, based on your different levels."
As the female guests flipped through their respective scripts, the content of each person's script appeared simultaneously on the live stream screen.
Upon seeing this, the live chat exploded.
[Is the production team trying to stir up trouble?]
Are you just trying to stir up trouble? But what if you suddenly find it even more interesting?
[It not only tests the guests' acting skills, but also the depth of their relationship, which is a bit tough on the male guests... I'm already starting to feel sorry for them.]
The clock struck ten, lunch was at noon, leaving only two hours for preparation and the performance.
So the four female guests quickly flipped through the script.
Upon seeing this, everyone's expressions turned strange.
Song Ying, in particular, immediately uttered a phrase about traditional Chinese culture after reading it, then turned to the staff and asked, "What idiot came up with this script? Can I abstain?"
No, you can't!
"Can I just admit defeat?"
"That's not possible either~"
"..." Song Ying was speechless.
Just then, Zhou Ruoyu raised an eyebrow and asked, "What, Miss Song, are you worried about your acting skills?"
Song Ying already knew what kind of person Zhou Ruoyu was, so when she saw Zhou Ruoyu's provocation, she nodded perfunctorily, "Oh right, I really don't have that ability."
Like punching cotton, Zhou Ruoyu was rebuffed and finally glared at Song Ying before snorting and ignoring her.
Apart from Sweet Bean, the others are all actors. Jiang Yueyao debuted the earliest and has been in the industry for nine years. Next is Zhou Ruoyu, who has been in the industry for six years, and finally Song Ying, who has been back in the industry for less than a year.
Viewers have already realized that the show set up this challenge to test acting skills and emotions, and Jiang Yueyao is no exception.
Half an hour later, she closed the script and stood up confidently.
"I'm ready."
The camera follows her as she walks to the small garden outside.
"Linzhou, what are you doing?" Jiang Yueyao sat down next to Shen Linzhou.
"Isn't the new drama starting filming next month? Let's take advantage of the remaining time to look at the script." Shen Linzhou turned off his phone screen, put his arm around Jiang Yueyao, and asked, "What tasks did the production team give us? What about the others?"
In the previous tasks, couples completed them together. The female guest had been gone for a long time, and the male guest seemed fine, so Shen Linzhou guessed that they had gone to pick up a new task.
"The director said that since we have a guest star today, we have some free time this morning, and the mission will begin in the afternoon."
Jiang Yueyao continued speaking according to the script. Because her tone and expression were natural, Shen Linzhou did not notice anything amiss and even nodded in agreement, "It's good to take a break. Filming for half a month straight is indeed a bit tiring."
After exchanging a few more casual words, Jiang Yueyao suddenly looked at Shen Linzhou and began to gaze at him with deep affection.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Shen Linzhou asked with a smile, then leaned forward and placed a light kiss on Jiang Yueyao's curled eyelashes. "The way you look at me makes me want to kiss you."
Shen Linzhou has a typical deep voice, and when he knows the camera is rolling, he adds a bubbly tone. His sweet words are meant for Jiang Yueyao, but they are actually meant to flirt with the audience.
Sure enough, these words caused a huge uproar in the live chat.
My brother kissed me!
[Looking down on our VIP members? Give me two more hours!]
[If Emperor Shen knew that his precious Yueyao was preparing a powerful move, would he cry his eyes out later?]
Shen Linzhou was unaware that Jiang Yueyao had a script, so he was as gentle as ever.
As soon as he removed his lips, he saw Jiang Yueyao suddenly frown, cover her nose, and hesitate, "Lin Zhou..."
"What's wrong?" Shen Linzhou asked.
"Did you not brush your teeth this morning? They smell a bit..."
"..." Shen Linzhou stood there, completely bewildered. "I swiped it."
"Then why does it smell..." Jiang Yueyao hesitated, revealing a complicated expression, "...so...unpleasant."
In the footage, Shen Linzhou stood awkwardly frozen in place, his facial expressions completely out of control, and the look in his eyes towards Jiang Yueyao was no longer as affectionate as before.
His gaze held a mixture of emotions: embarrassment, shame, blame for Jiang Yueyao's public remarks that disrespected him, and even a hint of anger.
[The production team is so inhumane; I feel embarrassed for Shen Yingdi even through the screen.]
If it were me, I would definitely lose my temper on the spot. What kind of twisted script is this?
[The more blatant the lack of boundaries, the more it tests whether it's true love? I have to admire the show's producers' twisted logic.]
Whether it was true love or not, Shen Linzhou didn't consider it; he just hadn't forgotten that he was still live-streaming.
Taking a deep breath, he suppressed his emotions and suddenly stood up. "I'm going to the restroom."
Brush your teeth and relax.
"Linzhou, are you... angry?" Jiang Yueyao stood up, a hint of self-reproach in her eyes, and gently tugged at Shen Linzhou's sleeve, shaking it slightly. "I didn't mean to, I just..."
"Alright, stop talking." Shen Linzhou's knuckles turned white as he gripped his phone, and with his other hand, he pulled out the hem of his shirt and turned to leave.
At this moment, Jiang Yueyao suddenly hugged him from behind, "Okay, Linzhou, I'm sorry... that was just the script from the production team..."
"?" Shen Linzhou's body stiffened again and again, and it took him a long time to process it before he could suppress the slight anger in his heart.
"Are you angry with me...?" Jiang Yueyao pouted, nervously trying to look cute.
"How could I... be angry with you?" Shen Linzhou forced a smile. "Don't we know each other well? I know you didn't mean any harm. Just, next time, you can't be so naughty."
"Mmm!" Jiang Yueyao nestled in Shen Linzhou's arms, revealing a confident smile.
She successfully fooled Shen Linzhou, which proves that her acting skills are not a problem.
Although Shen Linzhou almost turned on him and left, he didn't get angry after learning it was a script, which shows that their relationship had withstood the test.
She's definitely the winner in this round!
-
The production team deliberately caused trouble. Everyone's script was pretty much the same: to make their boyfriends extremely socially awkward or to anger them, and then test their boyfriends' reactions afterwards.
While Jiang Yueyao escaped unscathed, in another split-screen view, Zhou Ruoyu, the second to leave, was not so lucky.
Her boyfriend, Qiao Yu, was in the room. When he saw Zhou Ruoyu coming over, he quickly hid what he was holding behind his back.
"Honey, what are you doing? Are you hiding something?"
"It's nothing..." Qiao Yu tried to hide it, but Zhou Ruoyu eventually pulled the things out.
It is a notebook.
The above contains a list of many breakfast recipes.
"What is this...?" Zhou Ruoyu was a little confused.
"Aren't you envious of Lin Zhou making breakfast for Yue Yao? I was thinking of learning how to do it so I can cook for you in the future..."
Zhou Ruoyu and Qiao Yu are in a relationship where the woman is older than the man. There have been rumors online that Qiao Yu is not considerate enough and that Zhou Ruoyu is simply throwing herself at him and indulging in self-pity.
Now that Qiao Yu's little notebook has been revealed, Pisces CP fans are screaming like groundhogs.
[Qiao Yu is climbing the ranks like crazy! Go, little brother!]
[Mom, I'm ready again! Older woman/younger man relationships are just so amazing!]
If I were Zhou Ruoyu, I definitely wouldn't be able to keep up the act... Please don't hurt my brother!
Zhou Ruoyu bit her lip, clearly struggling with her decision.
Her script... was very unfriendly to Qiao Yu.
"What's wrong, baby?" Qiao Yu noticed Zhou Ruoyu's hesitation, but being young, he didn't think too much about it, assuming Zhou Ruoyu didn't believe he could do it. "Don't worry, if I said I'd help you, I'd definitely do it. Tomorrow morning, I'll..."
"You don't need to do it anymore." Zhou Ruoyu suddenly interrupted Qiao Yu, her tone somewhat unfriendly. "No matter how well you do, you can't compare to even one ten-thousandth of Shen Yingdi's skill."
"What...what did you say?" Qiao Yu wondered if he had misheard.
“I’m telling you, when will you be able to walk on your own? Didn’t you see what’s said online? You’re only getting these variety show opportunities because of me. Don’t you have any self-awareness? You want to compare yourself to Actor Shen? Do you even think you can compare?”
These words were a devastating blow to Qiao Yu.
In the two weeks since he started broadcasting, he has already endured a lot of criticism every night. As he spends more time with others, he has also discovered many gaps between himself and them, which has put him under tremendous psychological pressure.
For her, Zhou Ruoyu was the only person who could give her strength and a sense of security.
But now, what did she say?
Qiao Yu's notebook fell to the ground with a thud. His eyes reddened, and he stared at Zhou Ruoyu in disbelief and disappointment.
"So even you think that way?"
"That's true... I'm just a nobody, it's normal that you look down on me."
Qiao Yu nodded repeatedly, then suddenly ripped off his headset and threw it aside. "Since you look down on me, there's no need for us to continue this relationship."
"Go find your Shen Yingdi!"
Qiao Yu was furious and turned to leave, but Zhou Ruoyu sensed something was wrong and quickly grabbed him to explain.
"Honey, I'm sorry, don't be angry. That wasn't what I really meant. It was a script from the production team. That's not what I thought. Don't be sad."
Upon hearing that it was a script, Qiao Yu's anger intensified.
"A script? Heh, Zhou Ruoyu, you're really something!"
“You know perfectly well what I care about most! ... You want to be on the show, and I endure the pressure of being called a gigolo to go with you. When netizens criticize me, you also say to bear with it, because controversy brings popularity.”
"I'm willing to endure all this criticism as long as you're happy, but now, just for a TV show assignment, you're expected to say whatever they tell you to say?"
"Zhou Ruoyu, do you even consider me your boyfriend?! Do you even have me in your heart?!"
Qiao Yu practically shouted the last sentence.
After saying that, he turned around angrily and stormed out the door without looking back.
"Qiao Yu!"
Zhou Ruoyu quickly chased after her.
I feel so sorry for Qiao Yu...
Although the production team was being inhumane, Qiao Yu was right. If someone truly cared, they wouldn't care about winning or losing the show; they'd only be concerned about whether their loved ones would be upset.
[Shen Yingdi must have been very angry just now, right? His expression changed, but he still forgave Yueyao in the end, didn't he? If you ask me, Qiao Yu is just being dramatic and can't take a joke.]
Anyone who plays this kind of joke on me, I'll twist their head off!
Do you think that by setting up this outrageous activity, the production team might be testing not only the men's tolerance but also how much the female guests care about them?
True love is never just about a man's one-sided tolerance; it also requires a woman's mutual understanding.
A healthy relationship is one where both partners support and care for each other.
Some people gradually realized the deeper meaning behind the program.
Meanwhile, Sweet Bean and Big Meng are also making their move.
The script they received was for Sweet Bean to mock Da Meng for being ugly and not as good-looking as Shen Linzhou, Qiao Yu, Qin Shu, and others.
However, because Sweet Bean forgot her lines, and after watching Da Meng stumble several times, she burst out laughing on the spot, which Da Meng immediately guessed was a prank by the production team.
This group was thus eliminated.
However, the interaction between the two was full of laughs, which attracted a lot of attention from fans.
Even if you lose the game, you've gained popularity, so it's not a complete loss.
A series of shots are focused on Song Ying.
From the very beginning of the script reading, Song Ying was not very cooperative. Later, while others were memorizing their lines, Song Ying would take a nap on the sofa, completely giving up.
Guests have two hours to themselves and can arrange their own time.
But with it almost midnight and Song Ying still asleep, the cameraman couldn't hold back any longer.
"Miss Song Ying, wake up, time is almost up, please complete the task as soon as possible."
Song Ying opened her eyes with a yawn, and the fatigue from the flight and the transfer finally dissipated a little.
"Do I really have to act in this?" Thinking about the script, she really felt it was ridiculous.
"Yes, I'll have it~ Otherwise, there won't be lunch~"
We can lose the game, but we must eat lunch!
Song Ying had to get up for lunch.
