☆, Chapter 177: Couple Variety Show 6
"Okay, our rankings are out. Now it's time to start selecting a room." Chen Ning took out the photos again and placed them in front of everyone. "Now, please let the first person come forward and make their choice."
The dark horse actor couple of the game won the first place. They walked forward together and picked the largest and most huge villa.
Then the second person came forward and picked a house in the Mediterranean. The third person was Gu Feicheng and his friends. They did not choose a wooden house, but a motorhome.
"Yinyin likes RVs, so she chose this one." Gu Feicheng said as he took the photo.
The camera gives Chen Yin a close-up of a wasted interaction.
Next it was Wen Mianyu and his group's turn. There was only one wooden house and one tent left.
When Wen Mianyu was looking at the pictures, she liked the wooden house very much. After comparison, she naturally did not hesitate to choose one and walked forward to take the photo of the wooden house.
The last one, Chen Kai, had no choice but to ask for a tent.
He felt uncomfortable, but he couldn't show his displeasure in front of the camera, so he could only pretend to be magnanimous.
But this magnanimity did not last long. After each group of guests checked into their own houses, Chen Kai and Nan Xin had to set up the tents by themselves. Neither of them was very good at it, and after trying hard to do it, they couldn't get it right. Chen Kai became impatient and spoke to Nan Xin in a bad mood.
Reality shows are very challenging for the guests' personalities because of the long duration and the frequent camera angles. The production team always makes up various rules and props to make things difficult for the guests, which results in the guests being able to act for a while but not all the time. If they forget to act without paying attention, their true nature will be easily exposed. Chen Kai made this mistake.
Nan Xin was scolded for no reason for a long time, and only stopped talking when Chen Kai realized that there was a camera. Nan Xin felt very aggrieved, and considering what had happened in the past few days, she felt rebellious for the first time.
"I'll take a break first." Nan Xin put down her tools and turned to leave.
"Hey you..." Chen Kai called her, hoping to salvage the relationship, but he saw Nan Xin walking away without even looking back.
Oh shit!
Chen Kai cursed in his heart, but didn't show anything because he was in front of the camera.
On the other side, Nan Xin went to Wen Mianyu's wooden house.
Nan Xin was not very familiar with any of the five groups of guests on the show, and she had nowhere else to go. She only had to chat with Wen Mianyu before, so she finally knew him. Wen Mianyu was also friendly to her, so she went to Wen Mianyu's place.
When I entered the room, Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu were building a bookshelf in front of the window. They were talking and laughing. Lu Congxu was working while Wen Mianyu was handing him tools. It looked very sweet.
Nan Xin felt a little embarrassed to step forward.
It was Wen Mianyu who noticed her when she looked up, "Nan Xin, you're here, come in quickly."
"Miss Su." Nan Xin walked over.
"Are you here to visit us? I'll take you around." Wen Mianyu stood up and walked towards Nan Xin.
"..." Lu Xin breathed a sigh of relief instantly. She was a little worried that she had come at the wrong time.
"Let's go to the front. There is a small balcony there with a nice view." Wen Mianyu enthusiastically pulled Nan Xin out the door and left Lu Congxu in the room.
She knew Nan Xin's personality well. If she had nothing to do, she would not come to her house at this time, so she made room for Nan Xin to talk.
Sure enough, being alone with each other made Nan Xin relax a lot. After walking around the wooden house and reaching the balcony, the vast sea and sunshine in front of her made Nan Xin feel much more relaxed.
"Have you and Chen Kai finished setting up the tent?" Wen Mianyu took the initiative to start the topic.
Nan Xin's expression suddenly turned bitter when she mentioned this, but this time she didn't sugarcoat it anymore. Instead, she told the truth, "Akai was impatient to set up the tent and took it out on me. We've had a lot of conflicts recently."
"Ah..." Wen Mianyu responded. At this time, some words were inappropriate. It would be appropriate to pause and wait for the next sentence.
Sure enough, Nan Xin continued, "Maybe after hearing what you said today, I suddenly reconsidered my relationship with Akai and felt that between us... maybe I was the one who was giving in all the time. Seeing how affectionate you and Mr. Lu were, I suddenly felt that I..."
Nan Xin stopped talking here.
His voice was a little choked.
Wen Mianyu knew that her previous words had taken effect, so she struck while the iron was hot, "As an outsider, I shouldn't interfere with your relationship, but I don't think it's healthy. Your concession itself isn't the biggest problem. The problem is that Chen Kai doesn't know how to be grateful..."
Wen Mianyu paused, looking at Nan Xin's expression, "There's something I haven't told you before. Actor Lu once worked with Chen Kai and caught him in bed with another woman. I don't think you know about this."
"What?" Nan Xin widened her eyes, obviously very surprised.
"He and that woman are a couple on the crew. He is not as good as you think. He has been lying to you." Wen Mianyu simply said it firmly.
Sometimes a blow is necessary, otherwise Nan Xin will not give up easily.
"How could it be...Akai..." Nan Xin was struck by lightning.
"You know I have no reason to lie to you." Wen Mianyu said seriously, "These things are not secrets in the crew. You don't know that he deliberately hid it from you because you don't go out often. You can ask around and you will know if what I said is true."
Nan Xin was speechless for a long time, staring at her blankly, as if her worldview had collapsed.
Wen Mianyu patted her shoulder and said, "Calm down. Rest here for a while. I'll go back to the room and get something to drink."
"Don't bother Miss Su." Nan Xin stopped him, "I just need to be alone for a while."
"Okay." Wen Mianyu knew that she needed to be alone, so he left tactfully.
When she returned to the room, Lu Congxu had already repaired the small wooden chair. He was a little surprised to see her come back so soon, "Why didn't you spend more time with her?"
"I told her the truth." Wen Mianyu said.
"Then it probably won't be easy for her to accept." Lu Congxu curled the corners of his lips.
"Whether you accept it or not, it's the fact. Chen Kai doesn't love her and is still using her. There's no need to continue this marriage." Wen Mianyu walked over and sat down on the small chair.
Lu Congxu sat down next to her and put his hand on hers. "You are still the same as before, so righteous."
"I just can't stand a bastard like Chen Kai." Wen Mianyu leaned on him. "Okay, let's not talk about other people's business. Everyone has to make a dish for dinner later. Think about what we should make."
"What do you want to do?" Lu Congxu was used to listening to her and laughed again after saying this. "I should say, what can you do?"
Wen Mianyu is not very good at cooking, which is something that everyone who knows her knows. It is better to say what she can do rather than what she wants to do.
Simple ones are fine, but complex ones are impossible for two people to accomplish even if they work together.
…
Nan Xin was more clear-headed than Wen Mianyu had expected. When they had dinner together in the evening, Nan Xin did not show up, and neither did Chen Kai.
Chen Ning secretly told her that the recording would most likely be suspended because Nan Xin and Chen Kai had a quarrel and wanted to stop recording.
The program team may add another group of guests, or just record with four groups, and remove Chen Kai and others when the show starts.
Chen Ning didn't know everything. In fact, Nan Xin had already left the island. Chen Kai was communicating with the program crew at the villa, hoping that they would give him some time.
The program crew took into consideration that the two had a quarrel as soon as the recording started, and were afraid that they would really divorce, and the program would not be able to be broadcast, so they wanted to terminate the contract.
Anyway, even if there are four groups of guests, they are enough, and they don’t need to invite other guests. Four groups were originally confirmed, and Chen Kai and others were added at the end.
Chen Kai couldn't convince himself, so he could only chase Nan Xin, hoping to solve the problem before dawn.
That night, neither Chen Kai nor Nan Xin slept well.
Wen Mianyu slept well. When she woke up early the next morning, she received news from the program team.
"Nan Xin has filed for divorce, and Chen Kai and his team have terminated their contract. From now on, only the four of you will continue recording, and there's no need to add anyone." Chen Ning told Wen Mianyu the program team's decision.
"So soon?" Wen Mianyu thought that Nan Xin would not tolerate her husband's infidelity, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon. This was really beyond her expectations.
"Yes, I was shocked when I heard the news. This is the first couple to divorce right after the show was filmed. I wonder if the production team will use this to hype it up." Chen Ning said.
"That shouldn't be the case. Couples programs are for showing affection. It would be too strange to hype up their departure." Wen Mianyu said.
…
As Wen Mianyu expected, the program team did not use Nan Xin to hype anything, but quietly changed the officially announced five groups of guests to four groups.
The rest of the journey was recorded by the remaining four groups. In the twelve episodes, Wen Mianyu traveled around the country and abroad.
The four couples all get along well and the show has a great atmosphere. Occasionally, people will mention Nan Xin and Chen Kai, whose divorce lawsuit is still ongoing.
Nan Xin did not show any mercy this time. She obtained evidence from the media and exposed the fact that Chen Kai had cheated on her. Public opinion was on her side, and Chen Kai became a synonym for a scumbag, and his image collapsed.
Chen Kai did not give up and frantically searched for evidence to fight back and clear his name. Unfortunately, even though he and Nan Xin had lived together for many years, Nan Xin was a kind person and had been a housewife at home all these years, so he could not find any negative information about Nan Xin.
On the contrary, he made many enemies in the circle. This time, several young actors who had been bullied by him on the crew took the opportunity to expose his secrets on Weibo and slander him in various ways. On the one hand, it earned him popularity, and on the other hand, it made his negative news more powerful.
Even if Chen Kai tried every means to discredit Nan Xin, there was no substantial negative information. In addition, Nan Xin had not been working in the circle in recent years and did not have much popularity and attention.
When the recording of the twelfth episode was completed, Wen Mianyu received the news that Nan Xin and Chen Kai had successfully divorced and the division of property had been completed.
Nan Xin got what she deserved, walked out of the shadow of this marriage, and is planning a comeback.
Wen Mianyu also called Nan Xin to show her concern. From the phone call, it could be heard that Nan Xin was in good condition and was not affected by the divorce.
Wen Mianyu was relieved.
Because of this incident, for a long time afterwards, Wen Mianyu and Lu Congxu occasionally joked with each other, and Lu Congxu said that Wen Mianyu had broken up a pair of CPs at the beginning of the show.
Episodes like this become little joys in the lives of two people.
