Mimi and the others also knew that their attitudes changed too quickly. With such a huge contrast between before and after, the audience would definitely laugh at them.
But what can we do? It's their fault for being so mean and saying so many offensive things.
They would rather become a clown than a shooting star, because the people they offend really have the ability to make them disappear from the entertainment industry overnight.
Mimi wiped the sweat from her forehead and instructed the director, "Director, can you rewind the show to the part where Zhuang Li and Xi Ming first met? I suddenly think they're such a sweet couple!"
The director quickly rewound the video back to the three-person date in the second episode.
The audience was finally able to put aside all prejudice and view this couple with a normal eye. They discovered that when Zhuang Li and Xi Ming saw each other, their eyes sparkled, as if they had penetrated the vast sea of people and finally found the one who belonged to them. This was a fateful encounter.
At that moment, Zhuang Li, who had always been arrogant, proud, and indifferent, smiled like a child.
And Xi Ming's smile is brighter than the sun in the sky.
Fang Yuwu covered her chest and murmured, "They really fell in love at first sight. This look can't lie."
Mimi explained, "It's certain that Xi Ming fell in love with Zhuang Li at first sight, but Zhuang Li clearly came prepared. Do you remember his personal interview at the beginning of episode two? The director asked him what his criteria for choosing a partner were, and every condition he listed was a reference to Xi Ming."
The director very cooperatively switched to a scene of Zhuang Li's personal interview. In the camera, he described his significant other with a longing smile.
This expression is so passionate and pure.
Mimi somehow thought of her ex-boyfriend. Every time he faced her, he would smile like this, as if his heart was beating for her and his whole life was burning for her.
For some reason, Mimi suddenly closed her eyes, not daring to face the camera. But tears still flowed from her eyes, and she couldn't stop them.
She quickly lowered her head and covered her face, mumbling, "Sorry, I'm going to put on some makeup." Then she rushed out of the shooting area, turned her back to everyone, faced the wall, and cried silently.
Her agent quickly asked the bodyguard to open two umbrellas to cover her, and then whispered comforting words.
The other four stars didn't care what happened to Mimi at all, they just wanted to clear their name as soon as possible.
Seeing this scene, Ma Hui sighed, "I know why Zhuang Li chose to participate in this program. As he said, he was fulfilling his dream. After suffering such emotional pain, he did not back down, but became braver. He said Xi Ming was a star in the sky, and he wanted to try to get closer to this star, and he really did it."
Fang Yuwu immediately applauded and agreed: "Yes, he is really brave!"
Roger immediately flattered her, "Of course, this isn't something most people can imitate. If you want outstanding people to fall in love with you, you must first be outstanding yourself. In fact, if you discard all prejudice and only look at a person's conversation, knowledge, temperament, and inner qualities, Zhuang Li is definitely the best among these amateur guests."
"I saw some netizens complaining that Zhuang Li lowered the standards of the other guests. Could you please stop blindly talking and be more objective? Look at Zhuang Li. How did he lower his standards? He's so young, so handsome, so elegant, and so capable!"
Roger stared at Zhuang Li on the big screen, whose every move was full of romantic charm. He actually swallowed his saliva secretly and said sincerely, "If I had known earlier, I would have signed up for the Love House. I also want to go on a blind date with Zhuang Li."
This sentence is definitely not flattery, but an expression of true thoughts.
At this moment, those who shared the same idea as him included Ma Hui, Fang Yuwu, Liao Yuan, and thousands of viewers waiting in the live broadcast room.
"Young, handsome, elegant, noble, affectionate, and most importantly, rich! Who wouldn't want a boyfriend like this?" one viewer typed, drooling.
[I also want to be tricked into marriage by Zhuang Li, without signing a prenuptial agreement!]
【Han Kun has no idea what he has lost! 】
[Once Zhuang Li gets the marriage certificate, half of the family property will be divided up, right? Let me calculate how much money that is.]
Xi Ming is so lucky! Zhuang Li wasn't kidding when he said he'd give him the MAX Club and all those luxury cars. Mimi was practically laughing her to death. She actually said Zhuang Li was getting something for nothing!
[I want to be tricked into giving away something for nothing too! Mr. Zhuang, come and get me! I've already washed my neck!]
This show is probably the pinnacle of all dating variety shows! No other variety show will ever invite an amateur guest of a higher caliber than Zhuang Li!
The audience sent barrages of comments praising Zhuang Li.
After the news that Zhuang Li was Mr. Zhuang spread, more people came to watch the live broadcast.
In just a few dozen minutes, four topics related to this program rushed to the hot search list. The first one was "Shocking! Asia's richest man actually pretended to be a poor internet celebrity", the second one was "Xi Ming suspected of defrauding Asia's richest man into marriage", the third one was "Asia's richest man suddenly appeared on a dating variety show and got married", and the fourth one was "Xi Ming was deceived into marriage by an internet celebrity".
The audience was stunned to learn about the plot of this show through trending searches. Even the most imaginative writers wouldn't dare to write this, and it actually happened. This show is a must-see! If you don't, you're missing out on a billion dollars.
Through extensive publicity, the ratings of the first few episodes of the show exploded and set a new historical record.
The director almost fainted from laughing in the monitoring room after learning the data.
The huge influx of viewers was also genuinely captivated. This couple is simply perfect for each other! Zhuang Li is handsome and proud, Xi Ming is sunny and cheerful; Zhuang Li is delicate and delicate, Xi Ming is tall and strong; from a physical point of view, they are a perfect match, not to mention the passionate atmosphere they create when they are together.
[Seeing them hugging each other and whispering, I couldn't help but smile like an auntie!]
[The couples I chased before were all fake, breaking up quickly after the show. But this couple is so reassuring. I didn't have to swallow the key or help them move to the Civil Affairs Bureau. They locked it in on their own!]
[So sweet! I can’t handle it, sisters! I want to fall in love!]
Almost in the blink of an eye, the audience who once shouted for the fight between Zhuang Li and Xi Ming all became their CP fans.
The comments and Weibo posts insulting Zhuang Li disappeared completely, and what followed were overwhelming praise and flattery. This was due to the truth being revealed, but also to the influence of money and power.
Mimi cried enough, put on her makeup, and sat back on the podium.
She first apologized to the audience, saying her false eyelashes had fallen off and she went down to get them glued back on. Then, looking at the big screen, she saw Zhuang Li leaping from the high stands into Xi Ming's arms. She said sincerely, "I only dare to jump like this when I rely on someone wholeheartedly. That's wonderful! They're so kind! I wish them happiness forever."
Ma Hui and the others immediately applauded and said with a smile, "We wish the newlyweds eternal happiness."
The show ended here, and the five stars collapsed on the podium as if exhausted.
The audience in the live broadcast room felt that they were still not satisfied, so they went back to watch the previous episodes. After watching, they found that the complete video of the third episode had been uploaded by the program team, so they hurried to watch the replay.
Zhuang Li and Xi Ming, the least favored CP, have become the most popular CP among the audience because they are not fake. Love is love and marriage is marriage without much hesitation.
At the same time, Wan Annie and others who were sitting in Green Lake Castle watching the live broadcast were still unable to come back to their senses for a long time.
In the live broadcast room that has not yet been closed, there are still scattered comments from netizens. Some people are supporting Wan Annie and Yi Jiangnan, some say they like Xu Jingjing and Zhou Banxia very much, and some say that Ou Lu and Lin Caixiu seem to be incompatible.
Meng Lan, who was the most popular in the previous episode, was severely criticized this time. After Zhuang Li's true identity was revealed, not only were the five celebrities ridiculed by netizens, but Meng Lan also became the target of ridicule.
It would be fine if all the amateur guests rejected Zhuang Li, but Wan Anni and the others all believed that Zhuang Li was not a liar, while Meng Lan was the only one who kept attacking Zhuang Li. This undoubtedly made her look stupid, pretentious, and sarcastic.
Zhuang Li just changed his identity, and Meng Lan's once righteous act became extremely foolish.
A bright red barrage of comments streaked across the middle of the livestream room—[Meng Lan is nothing but a clown!]
This sentence seemed to trigger a switch, and the audience who had originally forgotten about Meng Lan immediately attacked her: [Yes, everyone else can see through the surface and see the essence, but Meng Lan is just jumping around aimlessly. Is there something wrong with her IQ?]
[She doesn't have an IQ problem; she's just trying to stand out. This makes her look special and unique.]
[Then she succeeded. Now I think she is very special! ]
【Isn’t it really stupid? 】
[Yes, very stupid, hahaha! ]
Young people who are obsessed with becoming famous are generally brainless. They believe whatever others say and lack the ability to think independently.
[Meng Lan is really too fake, too bitchy, too green tea! ]
[Have you noticed? She wants to snatch Xi Ming away from Zhuang Li, so she's always trying to sow discord between Zhuang Li and Xi Ming!]
[Fuck, she's so disgusting!]
[Isn't Meng Lan a true mistress? Zhuang Li and Xi Ming are already married!]
[Whoever comes between this couple will be killed! I mean what I say!]
Don't forget Meng Lan's previous Weibo post! She hinted that Zhuang Li was still recording the show, and she was trying to use public opinion to drive him out!
[This scheming bitch! She's the guest I hate the most right now!]
This comment resonated with the vast majority of viewers. Meng Lan's popularity plummeted. Her Weibo follower count initially surged, but those who followed her were all cursing her, and then they unfollowed her, causing the number to plummet again.
Looking at the screen full of insults, humiliation, and slander, Meng Lan's nerves were on the verge of breaking at any moment. She simply couldn't believe what she was seeing.
How could Zhuang Li be Mr. Zhuang? Impossible! The system's judgment process can't be wrong!
Meng Lan noticed the strange looks from the people around her, but with nowhere to hide, she could only shout anxiously, "System, system, Zhuang Li and Xi Ming are already married! Can I still complete my strategy? I'm being scolded by so many people now, what should I do? How can Zhuang Li be the richest man in Asia? Is he a liar?"
She was still wearing clothes, but she felt like she was stripped naked, and the huge sense of shame made her breathless.
The system's tone was extremely panicked: "Host, I have some bad news for you. Please remain calm! The glitch in the level test program has been resolved. Just now, the question mark after Zhuang Li's name changed to SSS. This means he is also your capture target. You must capture both him and Xi Ming at the same time to have a chance of survival."
Meng Lan: “!!!”
She collapsed on the sofa.
"Zhuang Li is also an SSS target? Why didn't you say it earlier? I have done so many stupid things and ruined all his favorability. How can I gain his favor? He is also so smart, I can't fool him at all! This is a hell-level mission! System, you want to kill me!" In front of the camera, Meng Lan could no longer hide her hideous face.
Seeing her extremely distorted face and eyes full of murderous intent, Ou Lu, who had originally had a slight fondness for her, suddenly lost his appetite.
This woman’s true appearance is truly terrifying!
The system seriously corrected: "To be precise, this is the Purgatory difficulty."
Meng Lan: “…” Thank you so much for your reminder!
