Mid-meal
Su Peishan made up an excuse to have Bai Qianmo accompany her to the restroom.
Just as she reached the washbasin in the bathroom, Su Peishan grabbed her arm.
"When did you get together with Gu Jueye? Wow, you're amazing. You just casually started dating someone and easily snatched the young master of the Gu family. This girl is young, but she's quite capable."
Bai Qianmo looked at Su Peishan through the mirror: "You're not bad either."
Su Peishan was touching up her makeup when she took out a makeup mirror from her bag. Upon hearing Bai Qianmo's words, her hand holding the makeup mirror froze for a moment.
"Why are you dragging me into this?"
Bai Qianmo gave a meaningful laugh: "Leaping over the storage room, Sister Su, do you want me to explain it more clearly?"
"Don't talk nonsense. I...we have no relationship whatsoever. It's definitely not the kind of relationship you're thinking of."
Bai Qianmo raised an eyebrow: "I didn't say anything, how did you know what I was thinking?"
Su Peishan suddenly became a little reserved: "You saw everything?"
“My office is connected to the company’s surveillance system. I accidentally saw you lingering outside the storage room for a long time before finally going in. Out of curiosity, I reviewed the footage and found that Brother Chen had also gone in a few minutes earlier. Your relationship seems to be more than just casual.”
Su Peishan sighed, "I'm having absolutely terrible luck lately, everything I do is unlucky. Last night I went to see that senior from university, and then..."
Su Peishan briefly recounted what had happened last night to Bai Qianmo.
After listening, Bai Qianmo quickly sorted through the information.
"So the person you were with last night was Brother Chen? The two of you..."
Su Peishan widened her eyes guiltily and hurriedly waved her hands: "We... I was drugged at the time, and I don't know the specifics. In short, I'll treat last night's events as a nightmare, and I don't plan to have any further contact with him in the future."
"Are you really just going to move on like this?"
"What else can we do?"
Bai Qianmo pondered for a moment: "Perhaps you and Brother Chen could try dating again?"
Su Peishan crossed two fingers to form an "X".
"Absolutely impossible!!"
Although we don't know what happened between Su Peishan and Chen Ge in the past, one thing is certain: Su Peishan harbors resentment towards Chen Ge.
As an outsider, this is all she can do to bring them together. Whether Brother Chen and Sister Su can be together next depends on whether they still have feelings for each other.

Bai Qianmo and Gu Jueye had just returned home
Su Peishan then called.
"Hey, Qianmo, are you home yet?"
"Yeah, just got home. What's up?"
"Go check Weibo quickly, Yang Caiwen and Wu Youxuan have indeed made their move."
After hanging up the phone, Bai Qianmo logged into Weibo.
Number 1 on the trending searches
#Wu Youxuan, what a wild woman#
Second on the trending searches
#Woman rescues photographer from crocodile jaws, proving she's just as capable as any man#
Both of these Weibo trending topics are marked as "hot," indicating that they have garnered a very high level of attention.
Clicking on the second trending topic leads to the first item on the homepage, which is a promotional video released by the official website of "Extreme Challenge".
The title is: #In a moment of crisis, she stepped forward and saved a photographer from a crocodile's jaws. Wu Youxuan is a kind girl you absolutely deserve to love. @WuYouxuan#
The video below the title is four minutes long. Bai Qianmo clicked on the video, and the first thing that appeared was a calm lake. Then Wu Youxuan appeared in the frame. At this moment, she was not squatting by the river, but standing three meters away from the river.
The figure squatting by the river, though only a back view, was wearing a black team uniform—the uniform of Bai Qianmo and Du Muchen.
Then, the crocodile suddenly emerged from the water, and the girl impersonating Bai Qianmo screamed in fright and ran away, covering her head.
The crocodile then bit the photographer next to it and dragged him into the lake.
Then, the whole process was about Wu Youxuan outsmarting the crocodile.
Since the footage is edited and composited in post-production, it's obviously not a real crocodile. However, the video is more than enough to fool the average viewer.
This Weibo post already has 100,000 comments and over a million reposts.
The video showed an upload time of only 45 minutes.

The people on the trending list are mostly fans of Wu Youxuan.
[I knew my sister was kind, but I never imagined she was so great. She stepped forward in that moment of crisis and saved the photographer from the jaws of a crocodile. It's truly unbelievable that a girl could do something like that.]
Sister, you are so wonderful and kind. Becoming a fan of you was definitely the wisest decision I ever made.
[After all, Youxuan is a beautiful woman who served in the field army. She is brave, resourceful, and possesses the fearless courage and determination of a soldier. It is my good fortune to have the opportunity to know such a brave and kind idol.]

The art style gradually changed, I don't know when it started.
[My eyes were glued to Youxuan the whole time; I was really worried for her. But then I realized what I'd discovered! Upload image]
The other party sent a screenshot from a video, showing "her" squatting by the lake playing in the water.

[I'm certain that the figure in the background is Bai Qianmo. The "Extreme Challenge" team's uniforms come in three colors, and Bai Qianmo wore a black uniform in the last episode. Judging from her hairstyle, it's definitely Bai Qianmo. So she was playing in the lake, which led to the cameraman being attacked by a crocodile!]
