Chapter 115 Chapter 115 Do what you can’t do…
"Is it my turn?" Qiao Wanshu looked at the book in Ruan Xiaoyu's hand, his eyes becoming a little obscure.
She was in an awkward position in the cabin, and any question she asked seemed particularly inappropriate, so it would be better not to ask.
But facing everyone's gaze, she still took the answer book and said calmly, "Then let me ask about something I want to do in the future and whether it will succeed."
After saying that, she closed her eyes and slowly turned one of the pages. It read:
"A broken plate can't be put back together."
Qiao Wanshu's fingertips trembled, the glimmer in his eyes disappeared in an instant, and even his breathing became shallow.
She didn't let anyone see her answers. She closed the book as quickly as possible and said calmly, "I'm done."
She returned the book to Ruan Xiaoyu and said, "The answer is not bad."
But his fingertips secretly dug into his palms, as if this was the only way to maintain the calmness on his face.
[What? If you don't tell me the questions or show me the answers, what kind of game are you playing?]
[She and Gu Jingchen are both people who can't afford to play tricks. They think that this way they can hide their little thoughts. It's really ridiculous.]
[It's really unlucky for the production team to invite them to this show.]
[This is definitely not a good answer, otherwise she wouldn't care so much. It's probably related to He Shengnian.]
[Even after all this, she still hasn't given up? She's really shameless.]
Ruan Xiaoyu didn't ask any further questions after hearing this. Instead, she handed the book to Xu Qinghu and said with a smile, "Hulu, it's your turn."
Xu Qinghu took the book and said with a smile: "Since everyone is asking about things related to love, I'll ask about it too."
She paused and said, "They asked me if I would hold hands with a certain male guest during the confession night."
Everyone opened their eyes wide in surprise. They didn't expect her to ask such a question.
[Damn, Xu Qinghu is really brave to ask this.]
[It’s almost like choosing He Shengnian, who is still a junior.
[This is indeed the question I'm most looking forward to. I hope there will be a definite answer.]
Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Qinghu's face, Wu Xuan and He Shengnian's eyes were particularly focused, until Xu Qinghu opened the book and said slowly -
“You have to do things you think you can’t do.”
He Shengnian's brows furrowed instantly. This answer was too subtle, making him inexplicably unhappy.
"What?" Ruan Xiaoyu was surprised. "Is this even an answer? That's too inaccurate."
Xu Qinghu closed the book, raised his head and said, "Why do I have to believe this book? Aren't my own thoughts less important than this one?"
She said meaningfully: "Compared to these answers, I believe more in man's ability to conquer nature."
Hearing this, He Shengnian's brows immediately relaxed.
He and Xu Qinghu had discussed this topic. They both did not believe in fate, but believed that they could control their own destiny.
Xu Qinghu's answer instantly dispelled his unhappiness and softened his expression.
"That makes sense," he said, looking at Xu Qinghu. "It's just a game, don't take it too seriously."
As for whether to believe it or not, it depends on what each person thinks.
[This answer is strange, as if asking Hulu to do something it doesn't like.]
[+1, I'm really worried that she won't make the choice that follows her heart.]
What are you thinking? Xu Qinghu is so popular, and he has two high-quality suitors, Wu Xuan and He Shengnian. He definitely won't let himself down.
"It's getting late, let's go upstairs and rest first." Ruan Xiaoyu said: "Hulu and my junior have to get up early tomorrow to cook."
Hearing this, everyone stood up and went back to their rooms.
Gu Jingchen fell last, looking at Xu Qinghu's slender figure, thinking of the thought-provoking answer just now, his eyes suddenly flashed.
It seems that Xu Qinghu doesn’t know the ending of everyone in the previous life, so who will she choose in the end?
Is it Wu Xuan or He Shengnian?
If it was Wu Xuan, she would most likely go with the flow without much reluctance, which is completely contrary to the Book of Answers.
But what if it was He Shengnian? She had already awakened her self-awareness and should be very clear that He Shengnian was married to Qiao Wanshu in his previous life. If she was with He Shengnian to get revenge on Qiao Wanshu, it would be too irrational.
[You have to do things you think you can’t do.]
What she couldn't do, she now had Wu Xuan to rely on, so what else could she not do?
At this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed through his mind, but it suddenly disappeared when he was about to grasp it and express it.
Gu Jingchen tried hard to recall, but he could no longer grasp that trace of consciousness.
The next day, when Xu Qinghu and Wu Xuan arrived in the kitchen, He Shengnian was already making soy milk. Seeing them, he said naturally, "I got up early today, so I can help you."
Wu Xuan's eyes narrowed when he heard this, "Are you so free?"
After saying that, he ignored He Shengnian and said to Xu Qinghu: "Since you have someone to help you, you can go to the living room to rest. He and I will make breakfast."
Xu Qinghu glanced at He Shengnian and asked, "Is it okay?"
"Of course," He Shengnian said calmly, "I'll arrange whatever you want to eat."
"Whatever you want," Xu Qinghu did not refuse, "Call me anytime if you need help." After saying that, he left the space to them.
When the others came down, they saw two big men busy in the kitchen, and then looked at Xu Qinghu sitting on the sofa watching the news, and they all showed surprise and understanding.
In the evening, Wu Xuan and He Shengnian still cooked. Xu Qinghu had nothing to do, so she went to the garden with You Zhi to look at the gourd vines. After a month of careful care, their leaves were bigger than her palms, and the entangled tentacles were like little snakes, constantly climbing upwards.
"It's growing really well," Xu Qinghu couldn't help but sigh: "If it continues like this, it will soon bloom and bear fruit."
"Yeah," You Zhi said with a hint of smile in his eyes, "I checked the information, it should be about half a month away."
"I guess I won't be able to watch it," Xu Qinghu said. "The live broadcast will end next week."
"I can send you photos and videos," You Zhi said, "so you can understand its growth."
Xu Qinghu was silent for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
After dinner, the director appeared in front of everyone and said with a smile: "I think everyone has guessed what I am going to say, right?"
"Isn't it just a date tomorrow?" Zhong Zining asked, "How are you planning to embarrass us this time?"
"It's not difficult, it's not difficult," the director looked around and coughed lightly. "Since the show started, do you remember how many text messages you've received?"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized something and showed expressions of almost shock on their faces.
The director remained calm and said, "You guessed it right. Tomorrow's date will be decided in order based on the number of text messages each guest receives."
"The guest who receives the most text messages will have the right to choose the person of the opposite sex first."
He added: "Before each text message, I clearly remind everyone that the heartfelt message must be based on one's true feelings. Once sent, there is no possibility of regret, because it is related to the subsequent development of the program."
"Perhaps some people clearly have the opportunity to go out on a date with someone they like, but because of overly rational considerations at the beginning, they lose the right to choose, which makes them regret it."
"But no matter what everyone thinks, this show is so realistic. Everyone has to pay the price for their choices. Even though the show is about to end, there will be no possibility of any change."
The director's gaze paused on He Shengnian for a moment. Seeing the man's gloomy expression, he announced slowly, "The guest who received the most text messages in the room was Qiao Wanshu."
He handed a pink date card to Qiao Wanshu and said, "Before 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, you can write the name of the person of the opposite sex you like on the date card and give it to them. The person of the opposite sex invited does not have the right to refuse a date."
This development made everyone gasp. It seemed like the production team was deliberately trying to annoy people.
Knowing who Qiao Wanshu would invite, he still made such dating rules. Aren't you just trying to stir up trouble?
[Damn, the director wants to die!]
[Saturday finally arrived, and I thought Mr. He would have a chance to go out with Hulu, but this is what happened?]
[I could already see the veins on He Shengnian's forehead; this rule was clearly aimed at him.]
[The production team is so disgusting. Even if Mr. He and Qiao Wanshu were to date, what would that change?]
[Although, this was He Shengnian's own choice. If he hadn't texted Qiao Wanshu so aggressively in the early stages, would she have received so many? All the landmines planted in the early stages will explode in the end. This is a common pattern in every season of Love Diary. Since he's on the show, it's unavoidable. Is there anything wrong with him paying the price for his own choices?]
[I like this arrangement the most. Every time it is mentioned, it makes those who are insincere feel pain. This is the most exciting part of this show.]
[+1, no matter how much you like someone now, you can't ignore the heart-warming text messages. If you want to hold hands with the person of the opposite sex you like, you have to go further.]
When Qiao Wanshu took the date card, her heart seemed to skip a beat. She didn't expect that she would have such an opportunity. She looked at He Shengnian and saw that the man was frowning and looked a little irritated.
He was unhappy that he couldn't go on a date with Xu Qinghu.
Qiao Wanshu's eyes darkened, but he did not let go of the date card.
This was an opportunity she had finally caught, and she must not let it go.
"The person with the second most text messages is He Shengnian," the director said, handing him the date card and smiling, "Mr. He, you can also write the name of the person of the opposite sex you're attracted to, but if someone with more text messages invites you, you must give them priority."
Afterwards, the director gave the date cards to Xu Qinghu, Gu Jingchen, and Du Yanting respectively...
"After everyone has written their names, the rules mentioned earlier will still apply. Those with the most text messages will have priority. If there are any remaining guests, they will automatically form teams."
Wu Xuan sat next to Xu Qinghu with a date card, and almost asked her to write her name.
Xu Qinghu glanced at him and said, "I won't go out on a date with you."
Wu Xuan lowered his eyes to look into hers, and said with a slightly pitiful look: "Really? You really don't want to go out with me?"
"Yeah." Xu Qinghu didn't even move his eyelids.
Wu Xuan still looked at her and said sourly: "If you don't date me, who will you date?"
"What do you care about me?" Xu Qinghu stood up and walked upstairs.
Wu Xuan followed her, clearly still unwilling to give up. "Why don't you just write my name on it?"
"No." Xu Qinghu didn't even turn around. "Don't bother me."
Wu Xuan: “…”
Watching the two people disappear at the stairs, He Shengnian frowned even more tightly. He had originally planned to date Xu Qinghu and take the opportunity to eliminate the grudge in her heart, but now a huge mountain has descended from the sky.
He looked at Qiao Wanshu, and after a moment of silence, he decided to talk to her, and it would be best to let her write other people's names.
Before he could speak, Qiao Wanshu lowered his head and left the living room.
He Shengnian's eyes darkened, and he immediately realized that she would not agree to his proposal, and his expression became even colder.
What is Qiao Wanshu trying to do? He Shengnian has made it so obvious, yet she still refuses to give up.
The Qiao family is about to go bankrupt. She wants to change her fate, so she has to find someone who can help her in a dating show. This person obviously can't be Gu Jingchen or You Zhi. Adding to that the uncontrollable nature of Du Yanting and Wu Xuan, her best choice is He.
[Why bother? This will only make He Shengnian hate her even more. It's better to let He Xu and her be together.]
[She wanted to crush Xu Qinghu to death. Do you think she would let this opportunity go? Stop being ridiculous.]
[I feel like her face has changed. It's very different from when she first came. The more I look at her, the uglier she gets.]
It was late at night and most people in the cabin had fallen asleep. The door of the room at the end of the corridor was slowly opened, and a white figure tiptoed to He Shengnian's door and slipped a date card into the crack of the door.
The next day, as soon as Gu Jingchen got up, he saw the date card behind the door.
Not one, but two.
He bent down to pick it up and saw his and He Shengnian's names written on it.
Someone actually invited him?
Gu Jingchen lowered his eyes. Who could it be? Wen Ruoxi? She hadn't given up yet.
He put his own away and lowered his eyes to look at the one from He Shengnian. It was written in Qiao Wanshu's handwriting. She had not given up pursuing He Shengnian yet.
The plot of this life has deviated so much, and she still hasn't given up?
She even gave up her dignity for He Shengnian. That's right, she was always someone who wanted to climb the social ladder. Add to that the magnetic attraction between the hero and heroine, and it's understandable that she chose He Shengnian.
Gu Jingchen put the card aside and wondered whose name to write. The first person that came to his mind was Xu Qinghu's.
no.
He closed his eyes. Given Xu Qinghu's dislike for him, she would not choose him even if she chose You Zhi.
He picked up a pen and casually wrote his name on the date card. Since Wen Ruoxi chose him, then they should choose each other.
However, after breakfast, he received a notification that said, "A female guest who sent more text messages than you has chosen to date you. Your original date card is invalid. You need to go to the designated date location immediately to meet the female guest."
A female guest who sends more text messages than him?
Gu Jingchen suddenly opened his eyes wide. There were only two people who liked him more than him. One was Qiao Wanshu, who had already chosen He Shengnian. The other was...
Gu Jingchen's breathing stagnated. He took out the date card and carefully identified the handwriting on it. He found that he had received a date card with the same handwriting before. Just two days after Xu Qinghu came to the cottage, she used the privilege card to invite him to a date at Donghu.
At that time, she wrote his name in the same way.
As time passed, he had almost forgotten her handwriting.
Xu Qinghu, it was actually Xu Qinghu.
