Ning Chuchu gritted her teeth, wishing she could pull this thief's system out and give it a good lesson.

So if she used that lying reward, her "transformation plan" would be far from success?

Ning Chuchu snorted coldly and silently made a note of this in her heart.

However, now is not the time to settle accounts. Ning Chuchu felt the tense atmosphere at the scene and quickly asked the system: "Can the 'Word Spirit' reward be redeemed now?"

Ning Chuchu was eager to try it. This reward simply made her turn around!

However, the system smiled awkwardly and said, "No, host. This reward can only be redeemed when you have completely completed the original plot - become a shining movie queen!"

Ning Chuchu: “…”

She narrowed her eyes dangerously. "So... I can't use this reward now?"

"Yes..."

"Then why did you announce it so excitedly just now?!" Ning Chuchu felt the veins on her forehead throbbing and her fists stiffened.

It made her happy for nothing!

The system bit its hand in grievance, "Such a big happy event, of course I have to tell you first!"

"Don't worry, host. You have already successfully transformed, and the finale is not far away! Once you win the Best Actress award, you can use this reward to your heart's content!"

Ning Chuchu twitched her lips speechlessly, "Why do you make winning the Best Actress award sound as easy as drinking water?"

The system chuckled and asked expectantly, "Host, have you decided what wish you want to fulfill with this reward? Can you tell me now?"

Hearing this, Ning Chuchu's eyes flickered slightly, and a playful smile unconsciously appeared at the corner of her lips.

But she quickly gathered her thoughts, put this temporarily unrealizable reward behind her, and focused on dealing with the problem at hand.

What she said just now was truly earth-shattering. Telling the truth may make you feel good, but if you don't handle it well afterwards, you will end up in the crematorium.

Sure enough, Yun Yirou said sarcastically: "Ning Chuchu, you said there is no relationship between you and Xie Jinqiu, I believe it."

"But if you say that you plan to terminate your engagement with Xie Jinqiu, that would be ridiculous." Yun Yirou sneered, "A woman like you who is obsessed with profit will only stick to the wealthy Xie family, how can you let go of your own initiative? Don't You’re so proud of yourself! Why are you pretending to be noble?”

Ning Chuchu raised her eyebrows slightly. Her expression was calm, but she had a confident and determined aura. When the corners of her lips curled slightly, there was an indescribable pride in her smile.

She laughed and said, "Yun Yirou, you underestimate me too much."

Ning Chuchu tilted her head in a puzzled manner and said lightly, "Is marrying into a wealthy family such a big deal?"

"I am now rich, pretty, and successful. Marrying into a wealthy family is really unbearable." Ning Chuchu's eyes were slightly cold, and the curve of her lips was a little cold. "Yun Yirou, don't try to guess my thoughts with your narrow-minded and short-sighted vision."

Yun Yirou was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then her face turned very ugly. She opened her mouth to refute, but suddenly realized that what Ning Chuchu said seemed to be true.

Ning Chuchu is now very successful and has a bright future. She is no longer the poor little girl who had to rely on the Xie family to barely fight against them and their daughter.

Now Yunshu is in prison and will spend the rest of her life in jail, and she has nothing left.

She thought that this time she would take the opportunity to turn the tables, but Ning Chuchu didn't take her plan seriously at all and admitted it openly. Yun Yirou felt like she had punched a cotton ball.

Meanwhile, the other guests slowly recovered from their shock.

Deng Xueer gritted her teeth, suddenly stood up, and walked quickly to Ning Chuchu's side. She looked directly at Yun Yirou and said word by word: "Your 'accusation' against Chuchu is nothing more than two points."

"First, Chuchu hid the fact that she was engaged. Second, Chuchu still participated in a romance variety show when she was already engaged, right?" Deng Xueer was a gentle girl. At this moment, she rarely showed her sharp side and stared straight at Yun Yirou.

Yun Yirou was caught off guard by Deng Xueer's sudden appearance. She didn't even have time to think carefully about what Deng Xueer said. She nodded hastily under her questioning, "Yes."

Although Deng Xueer stood on Ning Chuchu's side, what she just summarized were exactly the "black spots" of Ning Chuchu that Yun Yirou wanted to accuse.

Xueer Deng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled faintly: "First of all, Chuchu is not an idol. She is an excellent actress who makes a living with her acting skills. I don't think it is necessary for her to announce her marriage status."

Yun Yirou sneered, "Even if you are right, what about her participating in a romance variety show when she is already engaged? Isn't this deceiving the public?"

Ning Chuchu frowned imperceptibly. She grabbed Deng Xueer's wrist and tried to pull her behind her.

Yun Yirou was obviously coming for her, so there was really no need for Deng Xueer to wade into this mess.

Deng Xueer stood in front of Ning Chuchu with her back straight, raised her chin and said, "Yun Yirou, you don't really think... that we participate in the romance variety show just to fall in love, right?"

Ning Chuchu raised her eyebrows in surprise, and then a smile appeared on her face.

It seemed that she and Deng Xueer were in tune with each other. Moreover, these words spoken by an outsider should be more convincing than those spoken by her.

Thinking of this, Ning Chuchu chose to follow Deng Xueer's pace and remained silent for the time being.

And Xueer Deng did not disappoint her.

Xueer Deng took a deep breath and said, "Everyone knows that I am a food blogger. The reason why I participated in "Love is not to get a good match. To put it bluntly, it's just for traffic and popularity, so that my self-media career can reach a higher level."

"This love variety show, apart from not making people fall in love, actually brings me a lot of benefits." Xueer Deng shrugged and joked, "It has increased my popularity and gained me a group of good friends. Therefore, the meaning of this variety show is definitely not just about love."

As soon as Xueer Deng finished speaking, Zhong Xinyue also stood up and said, "I didn't come to participate in "Love" for the purpose of falling in love, but... I wanted to take this opportunity to become famous and become a small internet celebrity in the future. Because I don't want to always rely on my family."

After Zhong Xinyue finished speaking, she stared at Ren Zihe with burning eyes, her eyes filled with a sense of oppression.

Ren Zihe swallowed his saliva and said awkwardly, "Well... I came to the show to have a romantic relationship."

Seeing that Zhong Xinyue was about to glare at him, Ren Zihe quickly added: "But...you should know that my uncle is the chief producer of this program. He told me a lot of inside information. This program has never been about being a matchmaker to bring people together. The ultimate goal is definitely popularity and traffic."

"The show's guests are carefully selected. From family background, personality to character, the show crew will make a series of arrangements and also give a rough script."

Ren Zihe scratched his head and said, "It's just that Sister Ning's personality changed a lot later on, and she single-handedly led the show astray. Otherwise... this show is just a fake situation variety show, and there can't be any real feelings between the guests."

Ren Zihe easily exposed the program crew's past.

Ren Zihe's uncle: "..." This guy is really his nephew. :)

Mo Yao looked at Ning Chuchu with complicated eyes for a long time, then sighed faintly and said, "The company asked Sister Chuchu and I to participate in this variety show mainly so that Sister Chuchu could take me."

"At first, Chuchu was under pressure from the company and tried to hype up a couple relationship with me, but later she didn't want to do that and stopped following the arrangement."

Liang Rui also said, "I came to participate in the show for the popularity... The company also specifically warned me not to have a private relationship."

The guests spoke one after another and frankly expressed their reasons for participating in this program.

Finally, Xueer Deng smiled and concluded, "So, those who understand romance variety shows will understand. No one goes on romance variety shows just to fall in love."

"I believe that for Chuchu, the love variety show "Love" is just like any other variety show, it is just a part of her job."

Deng Xueer looked at Ning Chuchu with a smile, "Right, Chuchu?"

Ning Chuchu looked at her steadily, and her eyes slowly swept over all the guests who spoke up for her. A warm feeling surged in her chest, and a brilliant smile gradually appeared on her face, "Yes."

The director of the show "Love" has always been a smart man who only cares about pursuing profits. At this moment, he weighed the pros and cons for a moment, gritted his teeth and made a decision.

The director also appeared in front of the camera and said solemnly: "When planning the variety show "Love", there was indeed a script. The criteria for selecting guests has never been whether he is single, but whether he is popular or a hot topic."

"In a sense, we, the program team, have deceived the public." The director bowed deeply. "The essence of the program 'Love Is Coming' is not to let the guests fall in love. I'm sorry to disappoint everyone."

The director gritted his teeth with a serious look on his face. He thought Ning Chuchu was a bit weird, so he stood firmly on her side!

Ning Chuchu looked at the scene in front of her in surprise, feeling deeply moved for a moment.

After a long while, she sighed to the system in her heart: "Tong, it turns out that people should be more honest."

If she hadn't been inexplicably bound to the truth system, how could she have gained so many close friends in this romance variety show?

Now that they took the initiative to speak for her, it really solved Ning Chuchu's urgent problem.

After this incident, Ning Chuchu knew that her crisis was basically resolved.

[Ah, so that's how it is, it's a business marriage! Sister Ning is indeed a rich lady, so it seems that Sister Ning must have accepted this marriage contract out of necessity, right?]

[Wuwuwu, I feel sorry for Sister Ning! Yun Yirou and her mother must have been against her in every way before. Sister Ning must have had a very hard time in that family. I guess her marriage was also used as a bargaining chip by her scumbag father. How could she make her own decision? ]

[Yes, yes! Fortunately, Sister Ning is now successful, her career is going well, and she has also drawn a clear line with that terrible family. I support Sister Ning in breaking off the engagement! I want freedom of marriage! ]

[Sister Ning is really open and honest! She never tells lies! She will always be the honest and fearless person in the entertainment industry! ]

[It's so funny, the guests of the romance variety show have revealed their true colors. But it doesn't matter if they don't say anything. No one really watches "Love Is Not Blind" just to see the guests fall in love, right?]

[Is "Love" a romance variety show? Why do I remember it was a variety show where sisters chat? [狗头]]

[The guests of "Love" are all very nice! Just look at how they speak up for Sister Ning, and you'll know that Sister Ning must be a very nice person! As for Yun Yirou... those who understand will understand. ]

[I just went to check out the first two episodes of "Love Is Destiny". Sister Ning once said, "Joining a romance variety show is just a change of acting." Isn't it obvious? Sister Ning just treats this as a normal job. How is that possible?]

[Let’s take a step back and say that Sister Ning’s fiancé has agreed to her joining the romance variety show, so there’s no need for outsiders to make any comments, right? ]

[Hehe, Yun Yirou is such a wicked person, can you please get out of the recording site! Haven't you harmed Sister Ning enough times before? You still want to mess things up, get out of here! ]

…

Outside the camera, Ning Chuchu's assistant excitedly made an OK gesture to her with an obvious relaxed smile on her face.

Ning Chuchu's heart immediately calmed down, and the corners of her lips slightly raised.

It seems that... public opinion has turned around.

Ning Chuchu looked down at the pale-faced Yun Yirou. The other party had a dull look in her eyes and a hint of panic in her expression. It was obvious that she knew that the situation was hopeless.

At this moment, Ning Chuchu heard the system's excited voice in her mind: "Host! The jade bracelet failed to trick you this time. It has already run out of steam! I will catch it now!"

As soon as the system finished speaking, the black jade bracelet on Yun Yirou's left wrist shattered.

The dark jade body shattered and fell to the ground with a crisp sound. The originally dark and shiny jade seemed to suddenly dim, as if it had lost its soul.

The strange feeling coming from her left wrist suddenly brought Yun Yirou back to her senses. She stared blankly at her empty wrist, then at the debris on the ground, a look of despair gradually welling up on her face, and even her body was shaking slightly.

"Failed..." Yun Yirou murmured softly. Thinking of the consequences of mission failure, Yun Yirou covered her head and screamed, "No! I don't want to die!"

This time, when the program crew stepped forward to pull Yun Yirou, there was no hindrance. Soon, the troublemaker disappeared from the camera.

Ning Chuchu looked at Yun Yiru being dragged away with pity and pride.

Since she has the courage to cooperate with Yuzhu, she must bear the consequences of failure.

Ning Chuchu knew that from now on, the mother and daughter of the Yun family had completely disappeared from her life. She no longer needed to waste a bit of energy on them.

Due to Yun Yirou's interference, the ending of "Love in the Sky" ended abruptly.

Ning Chuchu sincerely said to the guests: "Thank you everyone."

If it weren't for these guests taking the risk and confessing their reasons for joining the romance variety show, Ning Chuchu would probably still have a headache.

Ning Chuchu was extremely grateful that the existence of the truth system not only helped her advance in her career, but also allowed her to gain such reliable friendships.

"You're welcome?" the guests laughed.

"Please treat everyone to dinner when you are free. I am leaving now." Ning Chuchu waved at them. She still had a lot of follow-up matters to deal with.

"Wait!" Deng Xueer said sternly, "Take the dog away!"

Ning Chuchu: “…Okay.”

On the way home with Huahua, Ning Chuchu received a call.

Looking at the name on the caller ID, she paused slightly, with a complicated look in her eyes.

Ning Chuchu took a deep breath and answered the phone calmly, "Hello, Mr. Xie?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment before Xie Jinqiu's deep magnetic voice sounded.

"Chuchu, do you want to terminate the engagement?" Xie Jinqiu said straight to the point.

Ning Chuchu knew that he must have seen her performance in the live broadcast. She felt very complicated at the moment, a little guilty and a little bit embarrassed.

But she calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Yes."

An engagement without emotional foundation is torture for both parties, and there is really no need to continue. However...

"You helped me a lot before, and I'm really grateful to you." Ning Chuchu didn't want to owe others a favor, let alone owe Xie Jinqiu a favor, which would make her feel very uncomfortable.

So she said seriously: "I am willing to promote any product of Xie's for free, without taking any profit. If you need my help with anything else, I will also be happy to help..."

Xie Jinqiu's voice was calm, but there was a sense of indignity, "It doesn't have to be like this."

Ning Chuchu's heart tightened. Could it be that Xie Jinqiu still didn't agree to terminate the engagement?

However, the next second, Xie Jinqiu said in a deep voice: "I agree with the dissolution of the engagement."

Ning Chuchu was slightly stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Xie Jinqiu did not hesitate at all, "In this case, let me make the announcement to terminate the engagement."

He actually agreed so readily?

Ning Chuchu was speechless and choked up, and just said "OK" in a daze.

Ning Chuchu didn't react much until Xie Jinqiu hung up the phone.

Is this... her illusion? Xie Jinqiu clearly showed he cared about her before? Why is it...so weird now?

Although canceling the engagement was exactly what Ning Chuchu wanted, but...her mood at the moment was really indescribable and subtle.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Ning Chuchu saw Xie Jinqiu's statement on the Internet that she felt a sudden realization.

Xie's official Weibo released an announcement regarding the termination of the engagement between Xie Jinqiu and Ning Chuchu.

The post was very concise and the wording was very cold.

The Weibo post was written in the tone of an official document, making the emotional event of breaking off an engagement sound like a business announcement. The content directly announced that the previous engagement between the Xie and Ning families had been decided to be broken off after friendly negotiations between the two parties.

"There is no other connection between Mr. Xie Jinqiu and Miss Ning Chuchu outside of work." With a final word, any seemingly non-existent feelings between the two were wiped out in this sentence.

Xie Jinqiu also clearly emphasized that the two parties had negotiated about Ning Chuchu's work content, and he respected Ning Chuchu's work very much.

In other words, Ning Chuchu fell in love with Zong, and Xie Jinqiu loved it and agreed. It also defines "Love" as "work", which is the same as Ning Chuchu's meaning in the live broadcast.

At the same time, Xie Jinqiu supports Ning Chuchu’s career pursuits and respects her personal choices. Therefore, after mutual discussion, the two parties decided to terminate the engagement.

"Spring comes and summer goes, there is still a long time to go." The last sentence of the notice reads, "I wish Miss Ning Chuchu all the best and a bright future."

Xie Jinqiu himself spoke out and not only confirmed that what Ning Chuchu said in the live broadcast was true, but also terminated the engagement simply and neatly. This act made the last bit of controversy about Ning Chuchu dissipate.

[Oh, my fiancé has spoken out himself. He didn’t say anything. There’s no need for outsiders to stand up for him! Sister Ning has not let anyone down! ]

[Great! Sister Ning can finally be beautiful on her own! ]

[It’s not the place for outsiders to comment on the agreement between the engaged couple, so let’s just go our separate ways! ]

[It seems that this is a purely business marriage between the two, and there is no love at all! Fortunately, the engagement was cancelled. I hope Sister Ning can be with the person she really loves in the future! ]

[Fuck... "Xie Xie Ning" CP fans haven't had time to celebrate yet, and the CP has already broken up... Who understands this kind of pain? ]

[They don’t necessarily have no feelings for each other… Haven’t you watched “My Brother”? It’s actually quite subtle…]

[No matter how their relationship is, the most important thing about this matter is that Sister Ning has always been upright! Everyone, please don't believe Yun Yirou's rumors! ]

【Sister Ning will never let you down! 】

…

After Xie Jinqiu issued the statement, public opinion became visibly clearer, and Ning Chuchu's last worries were resolved.

Ning Chuchu got what she wanted, but for some reason she didn't feel happy.

She could feel that even after breaking off the engagement, Xie Jinqiu was still thinking about her wholeheartedly. This feeling was a bit heavy, leaving Ning Chuchu speechless for a moment.

Just when Ning Chuchu was feeling complicated, she received another call from Xie Jinqiu.

"Chuchu, I agree with you." Xie Jinqiu's tone was as strict as ever, "This marriage started with interests and has no emotional support. There is really no need to exist."

Ning Chuchu's heart was slightly moved, and she didn't answer, just listened to him quietly.

"So... there is nothing wrong with simply breaking off the engagement." Xie Jinqiu paused slightly, seeming a little nervous, "At least for me, this is an opportunity to start over."

Start over? Ning Chuchu was a little confused.

Xie Jinqiu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Chu Chu, we have no relationship now, but..."

"I want a chance to woo you."

"Is it okay?"

Ning Chuchu: “……?”
