Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Who will he choose as a gift again?
"What's wrong?" Du Yanting, who heard the noise, walked over from the other side of the garden.
When he saw Qi Song in a mess and the night light that he kicked over, his eyes flashed.
Qiao Wanshu turned around and explained: "Qi Song fell down."
"Is it serious?"
Qiao Wanshu hesitated, "I'm not sure. Let's ask the medical staff to come and take a look."
Du Yanting picked up the fallen night light and looked at Qi Song's still bleeding wound. "We've added a lot of movable lighting equipment to the garden recently. Look carefully when you go out, so you don't kick them."
Qi Song frowned, wanting to say that the staff were blind and put things in a random place, but when the words came to his lips, he looked at Qiao Wanshu who was particularly concerned about him, and thought that this was not entirely a bad thing.
"Let's go back to the cabin first," Qiao Wanshu said softly, "I'll get someone to come and treat your wound."
Seeing that she cared so much about him, Qi Song raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm a grown man, a few minor injuries are nothing."
Qiao Wanshu said seriously, "Your wound is quite deep and there's a risk of infection. Let's hear what the medical staff has to say."
Seeing her persistence, Qi Song was very pleased. "Okay, there's really nothing I can do about you."
Qiao Wanshu: “…”
[Is Qi Song getting his comeuppance? He just had a conflict with Xu Qinghu and now he's being punished. What a coincidence.]
[I've never seen such a stupid male guest. He falls down even when walking. What a loser.]
[Although, this can be considered a blessing in disguise. He had always wanted to get Qiao Qiao's attention, but Qiao Qiao's attitude towards him was always cold. Now that he finally has her attention, his mouth is grinning from ear to ear.]
[I remember the roadside night light wasn't placed in this place. How did it suddenly move? I don't understand.]
[Maybe it was an adjustment by the production team. It's Qi Song's fault for not looking where he was going.]
[Actually, Qi Song and Qiao Qiao also have a strong CP feeling. He treats other girls badly, but is gentle only to Qiao Qiao. With such an obvious difference, it's hard not to love him.]
Not long after, the medical staff provided by the program team came over to treat Qi Song's wound.
"What happened?" Ruan Xiaoyu said deliberately: "It's so bright in the garden, and you can still fall down."
Qi Song glanced at her and said, "None of your business."
Ruan Xiaoyu gritted her teeth secretly and snorted coldly: "If you say so, then you deserve it."
Qi Song: "..."
"Qi Song was also careless," Qiao Wanshu said calmly, "The night lights on the roadside have been removed. From now on, when you go out at night, you don't have to worry about being bumped into."
Seeing her speaking for Qi Song, Ruan Xiaoyu secretly curled her lips and didn't respond.
Du Yanting's gaze swept over You Zhi, and seeing him looking down at Xu Qinghu, as if he didn't notice the tense situation in the living room, the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.
Not long after, the director pushed the door open and asked the female guests to go out to discuss something, while all the male guests stayed in the cabin.
"I knew the production team would stir up trouble," Ruan Xiaoyu said, feeling hopeless. "They wouldn't let us go even in the middle of the night."
The five female guests walked into the garden, only to hear the director lower his voice and say, "Last week, the male guests prepared gifts for you. This week, it's your turn to prepare gifts for the male guests."
"I'll give you two hours. Choose a gift that best represents your feelings before midnight and return to the cabin as quickly as possible."
The five of them looked at each other, then at the car waiting at the door. Without even changing their shoes, they got in the car and left the cabin.
Watching their backs gradually moving away, the men in the living room vaguely realized something and did not go upstairs to rest.
More than an hour later, the female guests came back one after another.
The lights in the garden gradually dimmed.
When the lights were turned on again, five gifts were already placed on the pink table.
The director sent the female guests outside for a walk and called out the male guests waiting inside. "The female guests have gifts to receive, and the male guests naturally have too. Our show emphasizes fairness, so get ready and come out to choose your gifts."
Gu Jingchen asked: "Just pick any one?"
"How is that possible?" the director said with a laugh. "There must be an order for choosing gifts. It all depends on your ability."
Hearing this, everyone looked at the director, wanting to hear what he would say.
The director's smile deepened. "It's simple. Let's have a push-up competition. The guest who lasts the longest and does the most push-ups will have the right to choose the gift first."
Hearing this, the usually lazy Du Yanting sighed, "Director, do you want to see what time it is?"
"There's nothing I can do about it," the director continued to smile. "If you want to choose the gift you want, you have to pay a price. Otherwise, how can you truly appreciate the value of the gift?"
"Why waste time talking? Come on," Qi Song impatiently found a place to lie down, determined to get the right of first choice. "If you don't want to compete, I'll choose first."
Before he finished speaking, others also leaned forward and expressed their attitudes with practical actions.
The director smiled from ear to ear when he saw this. "That's right. If you want something, you should fight for it yourself."
After saying that, he signaled the staff to start the time.
"I wonder who will choose the gift first," Ruan Xiaoyu said softly while hugging Xu Qinghu's arm on the path, "Anyone can go out with me except Qi Song."
Like the male guests, each of their gift boxes has a different size and wrapping paper. Only if you know someone well enough can you guess who the gift belongs to based on the outer packaging.
Ruan Xiaoyu looked at Xu Qinghu's pretty face and couldn't help asking, "Hulu, what gift did you choose?"
Xu Qinghu raised his index finger, lowered his eyelashes and said, "Keep it secret."
Ruan Xiaoyu blinked and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Is your gift wrapped in white paper?"
"I won't tell you."
"I think so," Ruan Xiaoyu looked at her with a smile, "I think you will like white."
Xu Qinghu's eyes curved slightly, "Maybe not?"
"Then I can't guess," Ruan Xiaoyu said, "I hope neither of us will be chosen by Qi Song."
Xu Qinghu: "..."
Listening to Ruan Xiaoyu mumbling behind her, Zhong Zining secretly rolled her eyes, looked at Qiao Wanshu beside her, and took the initiative to bring up the topic: "Qiao Qiao, do you have any male guests you want to go out on a date with?"
Qiao Wanshu shook his head and said calmly, "Anyone who draws my gift can have it."
But she recalled the self-introduction she made when she first came to the cabin. She told the other male guests her favorite color.
She likes the vibrant green, like the forest after rain and the emerald lake.
Therefore, she chose a wrapping paper in a light green color.
As long as they remember what they said, they will be able to recognize their gifts.
As for Qi Song, he was the last male guest to arrive. As long as he had not watched the previous live broadcast, he would not know his favorite color and would not be able to choose his own gift.
At the door of the cabin, the male guest was still doing push-ups.
Everyone maintained a constant pace and no one gave up easily.
Looking at their broad shoulders, long legs and strong physical strength, the audience praised the production team for being good people.
[Boss He is so strong. His shoulders, legs, and waist are so impressive that I can't take my eyes off him.]
Qi Song has great explosive power and can do push-ups the fastest. I wonder if he can hold on to the end.
[You Zhi is also very hardworking. In order to get Xu Qinghu's gift, he will definitely go all out this time.]
[Seeing them being so desperate, I can only give them a 666. The production team is still really good at making trouble.]
[Now is not the best time for welfare. They will be sweating and panting when they can't hold on any longer. You can imagine it yourself.]
[As expected, the guests on "Love Diary" are the most valuable. Every man on the show looks like the lead in an idol drama. They're so strong and so attractive.]
As time passed, someone soon chose to give up. Although Qi Song had strong explosive power, he lacked stamina and soon collapsed to the ground like a dead dog.
The director called him twice, but he didn't move. He said angrily, "I'll choose last."
[Damn, I knew Qi Song couldn't hold out for long. He always uses up all his strength first and doesn't know how to take it slow and steady.]
[There's really no difference between choosing the gift first and choosing it later, unless someone knows who the gift belongs to.]
[Qi Song looks strong, but he's actually weak inside. He should practice more.]
[Brother, you're always on a motorcycle, and I thought you were really capable, but this is what you end up with.]
[Let's see who else is competing. I think Mr. He will take first place this time.]
Not long after, Gu Jingchen and Du Yanting also gave up the fight.
Only You Zhi and He Shengnian were still holding on on the entire grassland.
The two men had equal physical strength and showed no signs of straining at all.
As they watched their muscles become clearly defined due to excessive exertion, the popularity of the live broadcast room continued to rise. While being captivated by the male beauty, they also held their breath in anticipation of the winner.
[Could it be You Zhi? He's younger than Mr. He, maybe he'll win.]
[It must be Mr. He. When has he ever lost a competition?]
[Although I really want You Zhi to win, He Shengnian has a clear advantage, so he probably has no chance.]
[What's the point of guessing? Even if He Shengnian won the competition, he wouldn't choose Xu Qinghu's gift. He might even think it's unlucky.]
[+1, You Zhi didn't need to hold out this long. As long as he understood Xu Qinghu, he could have chosen her gift. This competition isn't about who wins at push-ups, but about who gets the gift they truly want.]
Even if You Zhi could get Xu Qinghu's gift, he would still give it his all. Isn't that great? He didn't give up just because He Shengnian was too strong. Instead, he fought until he could no longer.
My favorite male guest is Xiao You. He's the youngest, but every time I see him, I feel safe. He's like the gentle and reliable second male lead in a novel.
Soon, the breathing of both men became rapid, and sweat kept sliding from their faces to their necks, soaking their clothes. They looked extremely sexy and full of hormones.
"Is it really necessary to fight so hard?" Qi Song said sourly: "Even if you win, you may not get the gift you want."
Du Yanting glanced at him and said with a half-smile, "If I had more energy, I would definitely hold on to the end. Who wouldn't want to choose a gift first?"
Qi Song's face changed when he heard this. He felt that Du Yanting was provoking him, but thinking of his family background, he did not speak rudely like he did to Xu Qinghu. Instead, he suppressed his anger and did not respond.
Seeing this, Gu Jingchen said softly, "What Qi Song said makes sense. You won't necessarily lose if you're the last one."
Du Yanting raised the corner of his mouth, not knowing whether he thought this made sense or felt that he was deceiving himself. "Then guess whether Mr. He knows which one is Qiao Qiao's gift?"
Gu Jingchen was stunned for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking about, and his brows suddenly frowned.
“You may not win if you choose first, but you will definitely lose if you choose last.”
Du Yanting looked at You Zhi who stood up from the ground, with a faint smile on his face, "Isn't this a coincidence? Mr. He just happened to win."
[I knew it was Mr. He. Mr. He is so handsome!]
The barrage was full of praise for He Shengnian.
[Not only does he have a great figure, but he also has such explosive power and endurance. This is my idea of a boss!]
[I wonder who He Shengnian will choose as a gift. I hope he can go on a date with Qiao Qiao.]
[+1, I've been wanting to see them on a date alone for a while now, it's sure to spark something special.]
[This time, there's no one to bother you, so the two of you must be very sweet.]
After the director announced that He Shengnian was the winner, a trace of disappointment flashed across You Zhi's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and his gaze fell on the pile of gifts.
There are five gifts, each gift box is different in color and size.
The gift box on top is wrapped in cool green paper, looking simple and clean. Then there are white, pink, blue and red gift boxes.
From the outside, it was impossible to tell what the gifts inside looked like.
But color already represents a lot of information.
"Mr. He, you can choose your favorite gift from among them." The director reminded: "Once you choose, you can't regret it."
"Every date on the show is extremely important, and every choice cannot be changed. I hope everyone can be honest with their feelings and make the most authentic choice."
The tall and straight man stood in front of the table, looking at the pile of gifts. He was silent for a moment, then took the green gift box on top in his hand.
He turned around slowly, his face expressionless, "I've made my choice."
The moment Du Yanting saw him receive the gift, his eyes darkened and Gu Jingchen's expression also changed.
He Shengnian indeed chose the green gift box.
He hasn't forgotten Qiao Wanshu's favorite color, and the person he most wants to date is still Qiao Wanshu.
Sure enough, even if someone like Xu Qinghu likes him, he will not waver at all and will eventually return to Qiao Wanshu.
Qiao Wanshu and Xu Qinghu were never a choice.
[Can anyone tell me if this gift is from Qiao Qiao?]
[Of course she did. Qiao Qiao said she loved the color green, so she used green wrapping paper. Mr. He must have remembered that. He really loves Qiao Qiao. I was so sad.]
[Ahhh! Mr. He works so hard just for Qiao Qiao. He loves her so much!]
[Having come this far, Xu Qinghu should be able to clearly realize the gap between herself and Qiao Qiao. No matter how hard she tries, she won't be able to shake Qiao Qiao's position in Mr. He's heart.]
I really like this firm choice. Qiao Qiao is truly the heartthrob of the little house. I'm already starting to support her and Mr. He.
I want to know what's going on in Xu Qinghu's mind. Seeing Mr. He's choice, will she want to find a hole to hide in? I've been watching dating shows for so long, and I've never seen a female guest with less boundaries than her. Mr. He finally slapped her in the face.
[This is so cool! Xu Qinghu wants to compete with Qiao Qiao without even considering whether he's worthy or not!]
He Shengnian stepped aside with the gift. You Zhi came to the table, looked at it for a moment, and then took the white gift box.
The soft wrapping paper reflects a very beautiful pearlescent luster under the light, and it is obvious that it is made with great care.
[The gift You Zhi received should be from Xu Qinghu.]
[Of course he is, otherwise Xiao You wouldn't be so happy. He knows gourds very well.]
[I don't know what Xu Qinghu likes about He Shengnian. Xiao You is obviously very good. Wouldn't it be nice for them to go together?]
[+1, I hope she doesn't go looking for He Shengnian again. Every time I see her being rejected, my heart aches. She's so beautiful, I really want her to be happy.]
Du Yanting stepped forward and chose the blue gift box. Gu Jingchen hesitated for a moment between red and pink, and finally chose the red gift box.
The last pink gift box was taken by Qi Song.
It was not until this moment that he finally realized that he had completely lost the possibility of dating Qiao Wanshu, and his face became extremely sour.
Du Yanting walked up to He Shengnian, looked at the gift in his hand, and said with a smile: "I wonder what gift Qiao Qiao gave me."
He Shengnian glanced at him sideways, and Du Yanting deliberately asked, "Didn't you guess that this was her gift?"
He Shengnian didn't respond and had no intention of opening the gift.
"I thought you would make the opposite decision," Du Yanting said pointedly. "Now it seems that eggs really can't be placed in two bowls. It's more interesting to put them in one bowl."
He Shengnian narrowed his eyes, but Du Yanting remained calm and said, "It's getting late. I'm going upstairs to rest first."
After saying that, he waved his hand and walked towards the cabin.
He Shengnian stood there for a moment. Just as he was about to go upstairs, he heard brisk footsteps at the door. "Hulu, it looks like the gift selection process is over. I wonder who will choose our gifts."
Ruan Xiaoyu is obviously looking forward to tomorrow's date and hopes to travel with the male guest she has a crush on.
"You'll know when we meet." Xu Qinghulu walked forward and pushed open the garden door, just in time to see He Shengnian walking in.
The lights in the garden were bright, and she could clearly see the color of the gift box in He Shengnian's hand.
It is an extremely fresh and elegant green.
Xu Qinghu paused, the smile in his eyes gradually faded, and he stood there in a daze.
"What's wrong?" Ruan Xiaoyu didn't notice her absent-mindedness and looked at her back in confusion.
"Nothing." Xu Qinghu lowered his eyelashes, his voice still calm and pleasant.
She walked into the garden calmly, without showing any strange expression, as if her previous panic was just an illusion.
[Xu Qinghu must have figured it out. He Shengnian didn't choose her gift at all.]
[She thought she could attract He Shengnian's attention just because she was pretty, but she found out she was just a clown.]
[From Xu Qinghu's perspective, it's really pitiful. He Shengnian's last gift was wrapped in white, so this time she chose a white package in the same color as a response, but was ruthlessly rejected by He.]
[All I can say is that girls shouldn't rush into chasing men. The more enthusiastic they are, the more likely they are to be rejected. This is the result she deserves.]
[I still like Fan Qiao Qiao. Almost all the male guests in the room are obsessed with her. Putting myself in her life is a super sweet and refreshing story with no downturn.]
[So Qiao Qiao is the heartthrob, and the other female guests can only serve as supporting roles.]
