Love Variety Show (Fifty-one)
Xi Jiu is Ruan Qi's biggest fan, Ice Cube Boss - although this matter has not been confirmed by the parties involved, Xi Jiu's Weibo homepage and various evidences have proved everything.
Ruan Qi’s fans, the audience in the live broadcast room, and the onlookers were all shocked.
#XijiuLittleSunBigIceCube# quickly became a hot search.
Ruan Qi, who was recording the show, was completely unaware of this. She was still rummaging through the drawers to help Wang Leke find his cell phone.
"Wang Leke, I don't have it here. Have you looked in the cracks of the sofa? Could it have fallen in there?"
Ruan Qi's question received no response.
She waited for a few seconds, but didn't hear Wang Leke's voice, so she turned her head in confusion.
"Wang Leke, what are you doing sitting there like an idiot?"
Wang Leke was sitting on the sofa, his eyes wide open and his limbs stiff. He stared at his phone, which was lying upside down on the sofa beside him, his face filled with the despair of someone about to walk into a grave.
"...Sister Ruan," he said desperately, "I seem to have gotten into trouble."
Ruan Qi: "What are you talking about?"
Wang Leke stared at Xi Jiu's phone with tears in his eyes, gritted his teeth and prepared to confess the stupid thing he had just done.
At this moment, the cell phone in Ruan Qi's pocket suddenly rang.
I took out my phone and saw that it was Shen Wenqian calling.
Ruan Qi was recording a program recently, and Shen Wenqian wouldn't call her unless it was something very important. Ruan Qi was worried that Shen Wenqian had encountered some difficulties, so she gestured to Wang Leke to wait, dodged the camera, and answered the call.
"Hello, Brother Shen?"
As soon as Ruan Qi finished speaking, Shen Wenqian's scream exploded in the phone like the collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth.
"Ruan Xiaoqi! Ruan Xiaoqi! How could you and Mr. Xi be involved in a dating show and cause so much trouble for me?!"
Ruan Qi was startled by her agent's heartbreaking scream.
She had no idea what was going on, and asked him in confusion, "Brother Chen, what are you talking about? What happened between Jiujiu and me? I've been very obedient recently."
"You're very obedient, but where's Master Xi?" Shen Wenqian was about to collapse when he thought of the trending searches on Weibo. "Why didn't you tell me that Master Xi was the Ice Cube Boss?! Why didn't you two tell me in advance about such an important matter?!"
Ruan Qi: ???
"What Ice Cube Boss?" Ruan Qi's head was full of question marks. She didn't understand Shen Wenqian's words at all. "Brother Shen, what are you talking about? Isn't Ice Cube Boss my very rich fan? What does he have to do with Jiujiu?"
Ruan Qi asked in confusion.
Shen Wenqian heard the doubt in her tone, and his panicked mind finally calmed down a little.
"Don't you know that Mr. Xi is the Ice Boss?"
"Of course I don't know." Ruan Qi finished speaking, then realized that the point was wrong, and hurriedly asked Shen Wenqian, "Brother Shen, what do you mean when you said Jiujiu is the Ice Cube Boss? Is that the Ice Cube Boss I know? Where did you hear that?"
Shen Wenqian's tone collapsed again: "Do I need to hear this? The whole internet knows it now! Your fiancé, Mr. Xi, is your big, wealthy fan - Little Sun and Big Ice Cube!!! Ruan Xiaoqi, do you really not know about this? Such a big thing, do you really not know?!"
Ruan Qi: ???
Ruan Qi was also confused.
What is Brother Shen talking about?
Why are every word in Chinese, but she can't understand them when they are put together?
Jiujiu is the little sun and big ice cube? The rich fan who has been following her since her debut?
...How is this possible? !
Ruan Qi was confused and her head was buzzing.
Shen Wenqian was still chattering on the phone, but Ruan Qi's brain had frozen and she didn't hear what the other party was saying at all.
At this time, the living room door was pushed open and a staff member walked in.
"The next person to enter the small dark room is Teacher Ruan. Teacher Ruan, please get ready."
"..." Ruan Qi's phone remained frozen and there was no response.
Seeing her in a daze, the staff couldn't help but come over and pat her gently.
"Teacher Ruan?"
Ruan Qi shuddered and came back to her senses: "Ah? What happened?"
"You should go into the small dark room." The staff politely reminded her, "Master Xi has finished."
Ruan Qi said "oh oh" twice quickly, and left the living room in a daze with the phone in hand.
The small dark room was set up in a side room in the yard of the villa.
When Ruan Qi arrived, Xi Jiu just came out of the house.
When he saw Ruan Qi waiting at the door, his expressionless face immediately softened.
"Is the baby next?"
"Ah...ah," Ruan Qi was still immersed in the shock that Xi Jiu was the ice boss, and even the look in his eyes when he looked at Xi Jiu was a little strange.
Xi Jiu noticed her strangeness and raised his eyebrows. Just as he was about to ask her what was wrong, the host Xiao Yuan suddenly poked his head out of the room.
"Is Teacher Ruan here? Come in quickly, we'll start right away."
Work is the most important thing.
Xi Jiu had no choice but to swallow his doubts for the time being and raised his hand to rub Ruan Qi's hair.
"Go ahead, baby. I'll wait for you outside."
Ruan Qi looked up at him, and Shen Wenqian's heartbreaking scream rang in her ears again.
[Master Xi is your wealthy, big-name, ice-cube guy! He's been exposed online! He's been posting all your birthday gifts, razors, and green plants on Weibo under a fake profile! Ruan Xiaoqi, Master Xi's fake profile has fallen off!]
Ruan Qi: ...
The incident happened so suddenly that Ruan Qi is still confused.
In her ears was Shen Wenqian's scream, in front of her was Xi Jiu's gentle caress, and not far away was the host Xiao Yuan's urgent urging. Under this triple pressure, Ruan Qi felt like she was going schizophrenic.
She didn't have time to figure out what was going on. She raised her hand and gently hugged Xi Jiu, then quickly walked into the small dark room.
Although it is called the "little dark room", the layout of the room is actually very cozy.
A comfortable leather sofa and a small table filled with delicious food. If it weren't for the cameras placed all around, Ruan Qi could definitely take a nap and rest here.
"Teacher Ruan, please sit down." When the host Xiao Yuan saw Ruan Qi come in, he immediately waved to her with a smile.
Ruan Qi walked to the sofa and sat down.
The staff immediately poured her a glass of lemonade.
"Thank you." Ruan Qi took the lemonade and took a big gulp, trying hard to suppress the shock she had just received.
Host Xiao Yuan: "Teacher Ruan, what was he doing outside just now? Was he playing Landlord with Si Lin and the others?"
Ruan Qi paused, hesitated for a moment, and nodded.
"Yes, I played Landlord for a while."
Xiao Yuan: "Who won?"
"Me." Ruan Qi curled her lips, "I'm lucky today, I'm on a winning streak."
Xiao Yuan smiled and said, "It seems that this nerd is not only good at studying, but also a great card player. I remember that Mr. Ruan is a very famous Dragon God in the esports world, right?"
Ruan Qi shook his head modestly. "That's just everyone's flattery. I'm not a god by any means. My ID in the esports world is Xiao Qinglong."
"Teacher Ruan is so modest. Even though I'm not involved in the esports world, I've heard of the Dragon God's reputation." Xiao Yuan looked at the girl sitting on the sofa, his eyes full of admiration. "Teacher Ruan is one of the most amazing people I've ever met. She excels in everything she does. And this time, you and Mr. Xi won several first places in the dating variety show."
Ruan Qi: "Jiujiu and I are better at sports."
"Not only are you athletically gifted, but you two also have a very high level of chemistry," Xiao Yuan said, gradually getting to the point. He asked Ruan Qi, "Do Teacher Ruan and Master Xi usually work well together? Have you ever had an argument due to a disagreement?"
Ruan Qi thought for a moment, shook his head, then suddenly thought of something and nodded again.
"Only once."
Xiao Yuan: "Why?"
"Because of the mission." Ruan Qi replied with a smile, "During the last mass poisoning incident, Jiujiu and I led the action team to carry out a mission abroad. In order to penetrate the enemy camp, we needed someone to disguise themselves as a hostage and go undercover. At that time, I was the person who most met the requirements."
Realizing what Ruan Qi was going to say, Xiao Yuan and everyone else on the show turned serious.
The mass poisoning incident and the Nightmare poison had always been a top-secret file sealed by the top brass. The common people only knew that this matter was serious and dangerous, but they didn't know the extent of the seriousness.
And now, Ruan Qi actually openly revealed such a top-secret matter.
Xiao Yuan was a little uneasy, not knowing whether to let Ruan Qi continue. She glanced at the director nervously, and the director gestured for her to continue asking questions.
Ruan Qi was a person of measure, and she would never say anything she shouldn't say in front of the camera. Since she dared to bring this up, it meant that the higher-ups had given their permission.
Xiao Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue asking Ruan Qi: "Why were you the most qualified person at that time? Was it because you were the best?"
"No." Ruan Qi shook her head. "It's because I look the weakest. Those people wanted to capture people for experiments, and I'm thin and a girl, which is the best condition for them to capture hostages. And I'm a doctor, so I'm the most suitable person to go deep into the enemy camp to find relevant information about poisons. So I took the initiative to ask to go undercover, but Jiujiu didn't agree."
Everything Ruan Qi said was too confidential. Xiao Yuan became more and more frightened the more he listened, but at the same time, he couldn't help but be attracted by Ruan Qi's story.
She suppressed her curiosity for a moment, but couldn't help asking, "Why didn't Mr. Xi agree? Is he afraid you'd be in danger?"
Ruan Qi nodded.
"Emotionally, as my boyfriend, Jiujiu didn't want me to take any risks. And intellectually, I wasn't a member of the action team, so I didn't have to bear the responsibility of going deep into the enemy camp. So Jiujiu wanted to go undercover himself and didn't want me to go. Because of this, we had our first argument since we got together."
Xiao Yuan: "So what happened next? Who won the argument?"
"Neither of us won." Ruan Qi smiled helplessly. "I insisted on going, but Jiujiu wouldn't give in. We were deadlocked for a long time, and finally we had to give in. I went undercover, and he disguised himself as someone from that organization and sneaked in."
Ruan Qi said it easily, but in just a few words, Xiao Yuan could imagine the danger at that time.
Her heart couldn't help but rise. "How big is that organization? If only the two of you sneaked in, would it be dangerous?"
Ruan Qi: "It was huge, with at least several thousand people. Sneak in and the two of us had our heads hanging on a rope. But luckily, good prevails over evil. We hid there for three days and finally found the poison information."
Xiao Yuan finally let go of his worries.
"So, the only time you and Mr. Xi argued was because of that mission?"
"Yes." Ruan Qi nodded, her voice a little gentle. "Jiujiu has a very good temper and never argues with me. When we are together, he takes care of me most of the time. Aside from that mission, he has never lost his temper with me. And even though he lost his temper that time, he still compromised with me in the end. Sometimes I always feel that Jiujiu is too good to me and I owe him something."
There is a saying that goes, love is always feeling indebted.
People who truly love each other will always feel that they have not done enough and have wronged the other person.
Ruan Qi is like this. She always feels that she is not as good as Xi Jiu and she wants to give all the best things in the world to Xi Jiu.
And Xi Jiu had the same idea.
Xiao Yuan couldn't help but say, "When we interviewed Master Xi just now, he also said that he always felt that he owed you. Every time he thought of you, he felt that he hadn't done enough. He wished he could hold you in his hands and let you be his little baby for the rest of your life."
These were the words Xi Jiu could say, and Ruan Qi couldn't help but frown.
Xiao Yuan looked at her sweet smile and curled his lips as well: "Teacher Ruan and Master Xi have a really good relationship. You've been through so much, you must have considered each other your closest people, right?"
Ruan Qi nodded.
Xiao Yuan: "Do you have any secrets between you? Whether you're lovers or married, even the closest people will have secrets. Do you and Mr. Xi have any?"
Ruan Qi wanted to say no.
But just as she was about to nod, Shen Wenqian's heartbreaking scream rang out in her mind again.
[Master Xi is your die-hard fan, Little Sun and Big Ice Cube! Ruan Xiaoqi, are you really not aware of this? ! ! !]
Ruan Qi: “…”
Just as he was about to click, his head got stuck.
She showed hesitation on her face, and her tone was a little complicated: "If you asked this question ten minutes ago, I would definitely answer with certainty, 'Jiujiu and I have no secrets.' But now..."
Xiao Yuan has been staying in the small dark room and has no idea what is happening on the Internet.
She asked Ruan Qi puzzledly: "What's wrong now? Why didn't you and Mr. Xi have any secrets ten minutes ago?"
Faced with Xiao Yuan's ten thousand questions, Ruan Qi opened her mouth, but was unable to express herself in words.
At this moment, a staff member walked up to Xiao Yuan with a mobile phone.
He handed the open Weibo page to Xiao Yuan. Xiao Yuan took a look and his eyes widened in shock.
"Ah, this..." Xiao Yuan, who has always been very professional, lost control of his facial expressions in front of the camera for the first time.
She snatched the phone from her colleague and quickly scrolled through the Weibo page. Hot and unbelievable topics flashed before Xiao Yuan's eyes like a kaleidoscope.
#XijiuIce Mountain Boss#
#Xijiu is Ruanqi's die-hard fan#
#Xijiu has been chasing stars for a long time#
#Do you know how hard Mr. Xi worked to pursue his wife?#
Over a dozen topics, each one related to Xi Jiu. Xi Jiu's alter ego was exposed clearly and unequivocally by this generation of netizens.
Xiao Yuan was dumbfounded on the spot.
She stared at her phone for a long time, then raised her head and looked at Ruan Qi blankly.
Ruan Qi had already guessed what Xiao Yuan was looking at.
At this moment, she didn't know what expression to make, so she could only force out a wistful smile: "Lovers need a little secret sometimes. How about it? Surprising? Exciting?"
Xiao Yuan: Oh!
The romance variety show is not finished yet, it will definitely end tomorrow!
