Chapter 93
Time goes back half an hour.
The barrage was actually quite calm when they saw Ye Wangxing.
At most, everyone just acted crazy and discussed the other guests' situations during the past five days.
After all, during these five days, everyone actually got along pretty well with the original guests.
Although those male guests were a bit hard to describe at times, they were still normal people and not the kind of unbearable ones - the kind that would make you want to call the police.
However, the white moonlight and the red rose can never be replaced, just like the position of Ye Wangxing and Chris in their hearts.
Not to mention their looks, their complicated relationship involving other people will definitely attract any audience with a little curiosity.
So when the audience saw the two guests whom they hadn't seen for five days, most people's speeches became wild.
"Oh, oh, oh, Mr. Widow, after five days of vacation, I feel like I've lost a lot of the dead air in me, but I'm still a great beauty!"
"Oh my god, he's obviously a wealthy man, why is he dressed like a male model? A tight short-sleeved T-shirt is fine, but why are he wearing grey sweatpants underneath..."
"Oh my god... such a vicious sexual tension, is this the natural gift of white people..."
"Look at my IP... Believe me, not all white people are like this. Most of them are bald uncles with beer bellies."
"Help! He's been staring at Mr. Widow. I think his huge thing is about to poke Mr. Widow next to him..."
"Something's wrong with you up front. What's the big deal? Can you tell me more specifically?"
While the barrage of comments was flooding the screen like crazy, the host also explained the situation and told them the task this time.
"We've selected projects from the work of several guests that are more suitable for everyone to experience, which also gives them an opportunity to get to know each other better. Of course, this time we still have to work in teams, which not only allows everyone to learn from each other through collaboration, but also further strengthens their connections."
The host said with a smile.
"As for the six guests who have been participating in the program during this period, we will assign appropriate teammates based on their completion of the tasks last night."
"Yesterday's task completion rate was calculated based on a comprehensive consideration of multiple factors, including task quality, completion time, and team collaboration."
"Guests with outstanding performance and high completion rates will be paired with equally outstanding partners. We hope they can create even more dazzling sparks in the new mission. Guests with lower completion rates will also be paired with teammates who can complement each other and make progress together, so as to achieve breakthroughs in this mission."
When the host said this, Feng Chuan was already a little drowsy, but the host's next words made her energetic again.
"...As for the two guests who just arrived today, since they were unable to participate in last night's event, we'll have to ask them to form a team directly for this assignment."
As he said this, the host's smile finally widened, and he announced as if he could not hide the excitement in his eyes.
"However, this also provides you with a unique opportunity to quickly build deep friendships and quickly integrate into this big family while completing missions together. I hope everyone can actively participate in this special experience mission and enjoy this challenging and fun process."
As he spoke, the host showed the list of groups.
The audience had completely ignored the host's last few words. They looked at the group list and the other three male and three female guests who were assigned to their respective groups. They glanced at it, but when they saw that Ye Wangxing was going to experience the domineering white-collar job with Chris, they couldn't help but say something.
"No, he's clearly exposed the black box. I feel like the director is watching the traffic from behind, and his mouth is almost crooked with smiles."
"What else? The director saw that this pairing was a ratings hit, so naturally he wanted to pair them together. Separating them for greater potential would be a much riskier decision. From the previous program setup, it's clear that our director isn't one to take radical steps. He emphasizes a steady approach."
"Seeing this suddenly reminded me of a weird variety show I saw a while ago - I finally found a couple I was rooting for, but the director, seeing how many people were rooting for them online, tore them apart the next day. As a result, the whole show immediately flopped, and they didn't even get to film the final scene where they confirmed their relationship."
Some people are discussing the program team, while others are discussing whether they can adapt.
"This is a real life of cattle and horses. Will these two Tianlong people be defeated on the first day?"
"I don't know, but I feel pretty good about it. I'm ready to watch it while I eat."
"Workplace oppression, the idiotic boss's scheme, and the idiotic colleagues' ever-increasing demands—this director's previous variety show featured torturing the guests to death, requiring these people to torture the guests to death, and they really can do it."
"I've already seen the company! It's so exciting!"
While the audience was discussing these things, the program crew finally brought the people to their workplace.
The audience claims to be experienced and will not be overly surprised no matter what kind of work location it is.
——Until the program team brought them to the workplace of a Fortune 500 company.
"No, the overbearing white-collar guy actually works in this place? No wonder he's so overbearing..."
"I've forgiven him for some of his fatherly words now - but I still can't accept his personality."
"That's true. I really can't stand being stingy. It's one thing for him to be stingy himself, but he's so stingy with his girlfriend that he even splits the bill at Snow King. That's really unbearable. And that's assuming she paid for dinner."
The audience complained, but more of them were concerned about how this overbearing white-collar worker got the job here?
Then they heard the staff say.
"...Because the guest's company was unwilling to cooperate, we had no choice but to contact the sponsor's company to experience a day of office life. Thank you to the sponsor for generously providing their own office space."
audience:"……"
"Suddenly I don't want to forgive anymore."
The audience wanted to make a few more complaints, but before they could react, they saw a blond man coming down from an elevator that was clearly different from the other employee elevators.
——And he immediately grabbed the source of this bloody storm.
Looking at the obvious familiarity between the blond man and Ye Wangxing, and his smile, which seemed almost trained, the audience's conditioned reflex immediately confirmed one thing.
"——This person is definitely having an affair with Mr. Widow!"
The program crew was shocked by this situation, and the director backstage was also a little shocked.
——This time she really didn’t know that Ye Wangxing was actually having an affair with their sponsor!
but……
"I've always wondered why this sponsor, who's never been involved in the entertainment industry before, would suddenly invest in us... Now it seems I've found the reason."
The director looked at the blond man and the handsome young man in the live broadcast room, talking and laughing, and couldn't help but show envy in his eyes.
"Xiao Zhang, tell me...if I go to Mr. Ye after the show to ask how I can maintain relationships with so many men, will I get beaten?"
The assistant gave her opinion tactfully.
“Director, I still think you should rely on Mr. Ye to personally conduct the class online.”
The director couldn't help but sigh.
The audience on the barrage also had the same idea as the little assistant.
"How many is this?! I feel like I've lost count."
"One red-haired one, one white-haired one. Counting Ye Wangxing's husband, there should be two white-haired ones. Now there's a golden-haired one... Let's start the class, Mr. Widow. We'll buy it no matter how much it costs."
"Mr. Widow is truly something. The women he selected are all top-notch, the kind that men and women would fight over. But now, they all seem to be deeply in love with him."
"They're so deeply in love! They're like, 'I'm willing to marry the prince, even if it means being a concubine!' Their desire to be a mistress is practically written on their faces!"
The barrage of comments quickly filled the screen, but the atmosphere at the scene was not that heated - on the contrary, it was quiet but also had a hint of tension.
The source of the tension naturally came from the two men, who hadn't said a word yet but whose eyes were about to start a fight.
The production crew didn't dare to say a word, but fortunately, Ye Wangxing spoke up in time.
"No, today's program team's task is to experience the life of a white-collar worker. Octo, are you here to discuss the project today?"
The handsome young man spoke naturally, immediately shifting the two people's attention to him.
The red-haired man walked closer, as if wanting to show off his identity as today's partner. Unfortunately, the blond man did not respond. He just lowered his head and looked at the handsome young man and said.
"That's quite a coincidence! They've already finished the plan you told me about a few days ago, so we can take a look at it. I don't think there are any requirements for your task content."
The blond man looked up at the production crew and said kindly, "Like who do you have to work with?"
The red-haired man immediately turned his head to look at him, a playful smile still on his lips. But the sense of oppression in his eyes made the production team tremble a little.
The staff in charge of guiding were about to collapse - and at this moment the director called them like a shining savior.
After receiving the instructions, the staff said with a firm look on their face.
"There's no hard and fast rule for them to work together—but they do have to go through the onboarding process together first."
When the blond man heard the first half of the sentence, the smile on his lips became gentler, but when he heard the second half, it was the red-haired man's turn to smile.
On the other hand, the handsome young man in the middle maintained a calm expression the entire time, and even went to the HR department to go through the formalities and get his work badge with a normal look on his face.
This stable mood caused the barrage to praise the general's style.
"...Everyone, here comes the first lesson. If you don't have this person's big heart, don't try to be a sea king. Otherwise, if two fish meet you, they'll panic. Will you still be able to keep them steady?"
"Oh no, it seems like I really learned something."
"Speaking of which, it seems like this new guy is quite scheming."
Following this comment, a class representative immediately came out to analyze the situation.
"Take away the feeling, he's just very scheming. You see, he was discussing business matters with Mr. Widow the entire time, and he didn't reveal any confidential information, just kept using code words. Of course, that's not the point - the point is that he stayed close to Mr. Widow the entire time, holding a document in his hand to show him!"
"Don't underestimate this. Internal company documents aren't usually very important and can be viewed, but the key is that this involves bidding! Furthermore, the Aldrin family has recently been expanding into the domestic market. Who knows if they might suddenly get involved?"
"Of course, Chris didn't mean that. Octo should also know this. So I just went back and replayed it, and found that Octo didn't have any documents in his hand when he came out. The documents in his hand were given to him by his secretary later!"
The class representative couldn't help but say excitedly.
"They went to get their badges from HR. In two or three minutes at most, he had already analyzed the situation and asked his secretary to get the documents. Then, naturally, he moved over to Mr. Widow, making him stare at the documents and ignore his rival. What does this mean?"
"——This means this guy has done this more than once!"
Everyone was shocked by the long string of analysis in the barrage, and even Feng Chuan couldn't help but post a barrage on the screen.
"Holy crap! I felt like I just witnessed a palace fight, and Chris was beaten so badly he couldn't fight back."
"Really, I feel a little sorry for this person now..."
"That golden retriever's creamy golden hair is such a waste. I feel like if you cut it open, you'll find a dark brown, scheming golden retriever underneath."
And it really looked like this on the screen: the handsome young man was talking to the blond man, while the red-haired man beside him could only sulk. The members of the production team felt a little depressed for him.
After all, the first impression is very important. In their cognition, Chris and Ye Wangxing should be bound together. At this time, a blond man suddenly appeared. Even though reason told them that Ye Wangxing was just a widower and was still single, and anyone could pursue him, they still felt a little awkward.
I wish Chris could stand up straight.
But the strange thing was that the red-haired man had changed his previous wild body movements and now he really acted like a little wife, staying obediently by the side. Even when the staff brought him to the workstation and the handsome young man was about to leave with the blond man, he didn't say a word.
Looks quite pitiful.
Now there are more people in the barrage who sympathize with him.
However, Feng Chuan noticed something was wrong, and she couldn't help but send a barrage of comments and asked.
"Wait a minute, don't show any pity yet. Does anyone remember what this guy did abroad before? Doesn't he look like the kind of person who would just sit there and suffer without saying a word?"
As soon as Feng Chuan sent out this barrage, the handsome young man on the screen turned around.
He happened to meet the red-haired man's face, which was nonchalant but somewhat fragile.
The handsome young man sighed, walked away from the blond man with a stiff smile on his face, patted the red-haired man on the shoulder and said.
"Okay, don't be sad. I'll ask Assistant Wang to make reservations for dinner the day after tomorrow."
The red-haired man's eyes lit up instantly. He turned his head to look at the handsome young man, and the smile on his lips became much more genuine.
"Just the two of us?"
The handsome young man looked at the red-haired man's shining eyes and was speechless for a moment.
“please~”
The handsome young man finally gave in and said, "Okay, just the two of us. I'll talk to Assistant Wang."
After saying this, the handsome young man was about to leave, but the red-haired man's mouth was faster than him.
——He simply grabbed the handsome young man’s tie and pulled him down, so that their mouths were right next to each other.
"Thank you, sweetheart~"
The red-haired man said this with a playful smile—and the next second he was hit hard in the stomach.
The handsome young man stared at her rosy lips, retracted his fist expressionlessly, then turned and left after saying something.
"I shouldn't have any soft feelings towards you, damn it."
When the two kissed, the barrage of comments started to flood the screen like crazy. Even the class representative couldn't help but say that the problem of love is not about who has better means, but whether the target will be soft-hearted and give a chance first.
The guests in the observation room suffered another heavy blow five days later.
But this time everyone was not stunned, but each had their own reaction.
The singer and his agent immediately started whistling and cheering, while the top stars and actors had expressions of admiration on their faces, as if they were looking at some seniors in the industry.
The expressions of this veteran actor couple were once again opposite. The husband had a look of disgrace on his face, while the wife's face was full of admiration.
As for Shi Xuanzhu and Song Yun...
Shi Xuanzhu felt so relaxed for the first time. Normally, in this kind of situation, he would have to think about which direction to take, and which direction to lean towards. But now, he could only shake his head helplessly.
——Because Song Yun, who had a dark face, would help him attract all the attention.
"Teacher Song, things have already turned out like this, so stop being so upset. You have to accept the reality." The agent said jokingly.
This has become a must-have joke in their observation room - in fact, their traffic as observation room guests is really not as good as these amateurs. After all, they have to react according to their reactions and also have to be careful to avoid pitfalls.
This also leads to their reactions and opinions being sometimes lukewarm and failing to generate much heat.
——But it’s different with Song Yun here.
To tease someone who has a brother complex, this is simply the safest zone within the safe zone.
As long as it is not excessive, all comments are welcome.
However, after sparking the heat, they have to get down to business - such as discussing which couple is more likely.
There is no need to talk about Ye Wangxing. Although Mr. Octo brought them some sense of crisis this time, what we are discussing here is the CP within the show, so the CP between him and Chris is still as stable as an old dog.
So the focus has to be on the other six guests.
After accumulating materials over the past five days, the program team also issued some reports to them, mainly to see who had the most physical contact and more eye contact expressions.
However, this time the atmosphere in the observation room was not as harmonious as before. On the contrary, they were about to have a big quarrel.
"Even though Female Guest No. 1 is a college student, that doesn't mean she's uninformed, right? In this information age, how could she possibly fall for Male Guest No. 2 just because he's a white-collar worker and knows all about high-end restaurants?"
The agent couldn't help but speak fiercely.
"Then how do you explain her looking at Male Guest No. 2? Look, it's written right there in the report. 'During the teamwork task discussion, Male Guest No. 2 and Female Guest No. 1's eyes accidentally met. Their gaze lasted significantly longer than the others. Female Guest No. 1 blushed slightly and was the first to look away.' Doesn't that mean she's attracted to him?"
The top star also refuted it bluntly.
"Female guest number 1 is introverted by nature, and she looks at everyone like that! And why didn't you mention that when she and male guest number 3, the athlete, sang together, she blushed immediately after their eyes met, and then walked away as soon as their eyes met, causing the other guests to boo her?"
"And when she played the 'Guess the Answer' game with male guest number 1, the two of them worked so well together, high-fiving each other happily after guessing the answer correctly."
The agent spoke so emotionally that he was almost cursing.
The top star wanted to say that she liked three male guests, but fortunately she was stopped by an actor next to her before she could say anything. The topic then changed to who the female fitness coach and the dessert shop owner liked, but most of them were refuted by her agent and his wife, who was a veteran actor.
They felt that the three female guests had not yet determined their goals, and they still wanted to observe further.
This made the husband, an old actor, unhappy. He raised his chin and said.
"How long do we have to observe? Back in our time, we would just meet and decide on the marriage if we were sure it was almost right. Unlike you guys now, you guys have to think about it over and over again, and in the end, I don't know what you're worrying about. It's really tedious."
This directly ignited the veteran actor's wife.
"It's because we made the hasty decision to get married that I ended up marrying you. If I had given it more thought, I wouldn't be in this situation now! I support them in thinking it over so they don't end up knowing someone by heart!"
The veteran actor's wife said this while glancing sideways at her husband.
Her husband was so angry that he couldn't speak, and just kept pointing at his wife.
"Why are you pointing at me? If you have the guts, just tell me your reasons. Aren't you going to say something that will get you buried in the grave? I was wondering why the air in the studio stinks so much today. It's you who opened your mouth!"
The husband was so angry that he almost fainted.
Shi Xuanzhu couldn't help but step forward and join in.
"Teacher, please don't be so harsh. In marriage, everyone has their own place and responsibilities. While it's good to consider everything carefully, if you have to consider everything, then why not get married? After all, who is so perfect?"
These words of persuasion did calm the veteran actor's wife down a bit, but she still looked angry.
Shi Xuanzhu wanted to keep trying, but a word coming from beside him made him look embarrassed.
"Yeah, there's no such thing as a perfect person, and a perfect marriage doesn't exist either. Don't you agree, Xuanzhu?"
Song Yun, who was beside Shi Xuanzhu, chuckled and said after hearing his words.
...Shi Xuanzhu broke out in a cold sweat instantly.
Song Yun's words also sparked discussion in the live broadcast room, and naturally were seen by her little cousin who was following behind her second cousin.
This time she was sent here by her eldest cousin, fearing that she would encounter the same thing as during the last live broadcast.
But now my second cousin is fine, but my eldest cousin seems to have some problems.
Seeing her second cousin enter the meeting room, the younger cousin immediately sent a message to her eldest cousin to ask what had happened.
Then she planned to leave the meeting room, after all, business secrets were about to be discussed there.
But before her eldest cousin could reply, she heard the voice of her second cousin coming from inside, which froze her in place.
"...Are you sure Kaiser's body hasn't been replaced?"
