Chapter 15 Chapter 15 When choosing a gift, let her choose first...
You Zhi's eyes lit up and he was already looking forward to the gourd seedlings growing.
"What are you talking about?" Du Yanting walked over, still upset about Xu Qinghu's words "very stupid and rude". "I think I should reiterate that I am not stupid, nor am I rude."
Xu Qinghu: "..."
"I didn't mean any harm in what I said. I hope you won't misunderstand me anymore." He looked at Xu Qinghu sincerely, as if he really didn't mean it.
But is he really innocent? Of course not.
He is an investor, and his primary task in participating in the dating variety show is to make this half-dead variety show popular and bring him a steady stream of traffic and revenue. To this end, he will try various methods.
For example, provoking competition between Xu Qinghu and Qiao Wanshu, or sacrificing a small amount of his own reputation to test Xu Qinghu's bottom line.
If she didn't overreact to what he said, he might use a more sharp way to provoke her anger next time. As long as she loses control of her emotions, this show will make a splash even if it is black or red.
In the novel, Du Yanting often revealed the whereabouts of Qiao Wanshu and Gu Jingchen to Xu Qinghu, hinting that she should hold on to Gu Jingchen, otherwise it would be a waste of time and she would get nothing in the end.
She and Qiao Wanshu were at loggerheads, and thanks to his help behind the scenes, the romance show was finally revived.
Not only did he make a lot of money, but he was also able to easily return to normal life.
Only she became an abandoned child.
Thinking of his various methods, Xu Qinghu wanted to applaud him.
It would be a waste of his talent not to let him be the matchmaker in this amazing show.
"You think too much," Xu Qinghu said with a smile, "I'm not that stingy."
Du Yanting breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
"Want to play a game together?" It was still early today, so Ruan Xiaoyu suggested relaxing. "How about truth or dare, or maybe finger-breaking?"
Before anyone else could answer, the male guests collectively received a text message.
"Let's not play games today," Gu Jingchen stood up from the sofa and subconsciously looked at Qiao Wanshu. However, when he glanced at Xu Qinghu, his gaze paused for a moment, and then he explained: "We have to go out."
"What are you doing out there?" Zhong Zi asked, her head full of concentration. "Did the production team assign you some kind of mission?"
"Keep it a secret." Gu Jingchen put on his thin coat and said with a smile, "Don't worry, it's not a bad thing."
You Zhi also stood up from the sofa and whispered to Xu Qinghu: "If you are tired, go upstairs and rest. I will call you when I come back."
"Okay," Xu Qinghu's eyes curved slightly, "Be careful on the road."
Her tone was ordinary, but it had a special meaning to You Zhi, and his ears felt hot. "Okay, okay."
After saying that, he didn't dare to look at Xu Qinghu, and walked out with the others with his head down.
"Where are you going?" Ruan Xiaoyu leaned against the window and watched them drive away. "You're leaving in such a hurry."
"Maybe it has something to do with tomorrow's date," Wen Ruoxi was very attentive and guessed something immediately, "Don't forget, we go out on dates every weekend."
"It's possible," Qiao Wanshu continued. "We'll know what they'll do after they come back."
"So what should we do now?" Ruan Xiaoyu asked, "We're not just going to sit there and wait for them to come back? That would be too boring."
"Let's chat," Qiao Wanshu, who wasn't very interested in playing games, said calmly, "We've only known each other for a short time, so we can get to know each other better."
"Then I'll go to the kitchen and make some fruit tea," Wen Ruoxi stood up. "What flavor would you like?"
"Oranges, please," Ruan Xiaoyu said enthusiastically, "and some apples and pears."
"Okay." Wen Ruoxi opened the refrigerator and took out some fruit to process.
"What are you talking about?" Zhong Zining leaned on the sofa, her eyes unconsciously falling on Xu Qinghu. Xu Qinghu's slender body was sunken in the soft sofa, his eyelashes drooped slightly, and he looked a little tired.
But she is still extremely beautiful like this.
It reminded her of Sleeping Beauty in the fairy tale, beautiful, delicate and quiet.
If she was not the catfish that appeared later, but came to the cabin at the beginning, Zhong Zining was not sure whether Gu Jingchen and others would be attracted to her.
No matter how good Qiao Wanshu's temperament is, when she is in the same picture with Xu Qinghu, her temperament seems to become less obvious.
What's more, Xu Qinghu is not only beautiful.
No one in the cabin is a fool. Xu Qinghu looks easy to get along with, but the sharpness that she occasionally reveals is her true nature.
She is not the crabapple in the garden that is washed by the rain, she is a climbing rose.
Untamed roses are wild.
If you are not careful, you will feel a dull pain from the prick.
Even Du Yanting would be humiliated in front of her.
While Zhong Zining rejected Xu Qinghu, she was also very curious about her. She wanted to chat with her to find out what she was thinking and whether it would affect her situation in the cabin.
Noticing Zhong Zining's gaze, Xu Qinghu slowly opened his eyes and gave her a puzzled look, "Something wrong?"
Zhong Zining had no good impression of her, but being looked at by such a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes, she sat up straight. "You've only been in the cabin for two days, and we haven't done a complete self-introduction. How about we make up for it now?"
"Sure." Xu Qinghu did not refuse and took the lead in introducing her age and occupation. When Zhong Zining heard that she was an artist, although she was well prepared, she was still a little surprised.
"I suspected you were from the entertainment industry before, but I didn't expect you to be one." She looked at Xu Qinghu with understanding, and she just said that she wanted to make her debut through the dating variety show.
Xu Qinghu didn't continue talking about himself, but asked them what they did.
Zhong Zining runs two restaurants in the city. Her dream is to open a chain store and then switch to e-commerce.
Ruan Xiaoyu is an employee of a well-known bank who deals with bonds every day. In addition to finding a partner, she came to the show to make a living in the Internet industry.
Wen Ruoxi comes from a scholarly family and is currently an art teacher in an institution. She wants to open her own studio and art exhibition by attracting traffic.
As for Qiao Wanshu, a rich second-generation who works in his own company and has countless suitors around him, his purpose of appearing on the show is even more futile.
Of course, they only introduced their age and occupation, and did not point out their selfish motives. These are all the information Xu Qinghu extracted from the novel.
All the female guests are not here just for dating. Each of them has their own ambitions and wants to make their lives better.
The same is true for Qiao Wanshu.
Although Xu Qinghu had no feelings for her, Qiao Wanshu finally succeeded in getting together with He Shengnian, and relied on marriage to improve her social class. She also opened her own internet celebrity incubation company, and she was able to achieve both career and love, making many people jealous and envious.
"Why do you want to enter the entertainment industry?" Zhong Zining didn't intend to let Xu Qinghu off easily. "You have a good education, you can obviously do other things."
"I want to experience a different life," Xu Qinghu said calmly, "I want to experience life in 208 the most."
Zhong Zining: "..."
[My old swan, Xu Qinghu is really bold in saying that. It made me laugh for no apparent reason.]
[I can see that Xu Qinghu is really brave. He says whatever he thinks. It's so funny.]
[The girls in the hut are all very nice. Not only are they pretty, they also have nice personalities.]
[Except Zhong Zining, I still remember her implication about Xu Qinghu.]
[Don't be so serious. Zhong Zining is doing this for Qiao Wanshu. She's not a bad person.]
As she spoke, Wen Ruoxi's fruit tea was ready. She poured a cup for each person and said with a smile, "For everyone's weight, I didn't put sugar in the pot. It's all about the taste of fruit. How about trying it?"
Her smile is subtle and gentle, and her voice is even softer and more pleasant, giving people a very comfortable feeling.
Ruan Xiaoyu quickly took a sip and gave a thumbs up, "It tastes good."
"Really?" Wen Ruoxi tasted it herself and thought for a moment before saying, "It's good. Next time, I can add two pieces of sugarcane. It should taste even better."
"Sure," Qiao Wanshu said, "If you come back early tomorrow, we can go to the supermarket together."
No one had any objection.
The time we spent chatting passed quickly, and soon the sound of an engine was heard outside.
Ruan Xiaoyu rubbed her sleepy eyes and stood up from the sofa, "I'm finally back."
Unexpectedly, the five men did not come in, but gathered together, doing something unknown in the garden.
Zhong Zining wanted to go over and take a look, but the director held her back, saying, "It's not time yet."
After about ten minutes, all the lights in the garden were turned on, and the originally dim corners were instantly shrouded in brilliant light.
A pink table was set up in the garden at some point, and several beautifully wrapped gift boxes were placed on the table.
"So you're going to buy gifts?" Ruan Xiaoyu blinked. "I know the rule. Whoever's gift you choose gets to go out on a date with them."
As soon as these words came out, everyone became excited instantly, "Let's go and see what's there."
When the men came over, they were driven away by the director, who resolutely refused to give them any chance to quietly hint to the girls.
When they came to the table, everyone could see the wrapping paper of each gift box clearly. Some were clean and simple pure white, while others were black, blue, green, and purple. The boxes were of different sizes, making it impossible to tell what was inside.
Zhong Zining looked around, trying to figure out which one was He Shengnian's gift, but she hadn't spent much time with He Shengnian and didn't know him well enough, so she couldn't choose at all.
"This box is so big," Ruan Xiaoyu hugged the black gift box, "but it doesn't weigh much."
She subconsciously looked at Xu Qinghu, "Do you have any choice?"
Before she finished speaking, Zhong Zining said, "We can't be so careless when choosing a gift."
She was quite afraid of Xu Qinghu and didn't want her to choose first.
If anyone has to choose, Qiao Qiao should choose first.
Ruan Xiaoyu put the box back on the table, put her hands on her hips, and said unhappily, "Then what do you say we should do? You can't just let you choose first, right? I don't agree."
"I didn't say that," Zhong Zining thought for a moment, "How about we guess Ding Ke, and whoever wins gets to choose first?"
