Chapter 87 You just kissed Gu Junsheng? ...
Chu Ruofu was pulled up by Gu Junsheng. The guests looked over, and several male guests frowned as they watched the two leave, seeing Chu Ruofu letting Gu Junsheng hold her hand.
The castle is very large, with so many rooms that it's easy to get lost.
The stairwell on the third floor was sealed off, and a warning sign was posted saying "No entry without permission." The only spaces available for guests were the first and second floors.
Gu Junsheng led Chu Ruofu to the kitchen on the first floor of the castle, which was fully equipped with garlic and various fruits and vegetables hanging or placed in baskets.
"You didn't eat dinner, are you hungry now?" Gu Junsheng asked, rolling up his sleeves.
Chu Ruofu was slightly taken aback and said, "I'm a little hungry."
The production team did not prepare dinner for the guests tonight, obviously leaving them to fend for themselves. Having suddenly arrived at an unfamiliar castle, the guests were all busy packing their luggage, and no one was cooking.
There were some dry foods in the living room, but the biscuits and baguettes were too hard for her to eat.
Gu Junsheng took some meat and vegetables and said, "I'll make you a bowl of noodles."
Chu Ruofu asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
"I ate at the airport during my layover this afternoon." Gu Junsheng lowered his eyes as he cut the meat, his tone gentle: "I'm not hungry now."
Chu Ruofu responded with an "oh".
The kitchen fell silent for a moment, with only the crackling sound of the flames.
I don't know where the production team found the deserted island castle, but the kitchen uses dry firewood to cook, and the burning wood makes the kitchen extra warm.
Chu Ruofu stared blankly as Gu Junsheng cooked, then kissed Shen Wuyang again behind his back. She also thought of the love messages Gu Junsheng had sent to Qiao Yimo. All sorts of turbulent emotions made her feel a little depressed.
Chu Ruofu is timid and introverted, and not very good at chatting with people. Without careful observation, it is difficult to notice that she is unhappy.
Gu Junsheng prepared the ingredients needed to cook the noodles. While waiting for the water to boil, he came to her and asked, "Are you unhappy?"
Chu Ruofu let out a sound of surprise, looked up at him, and her lips moved slightly: "...No."
Gu Junsheng lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Is it because of me?"
Chu Ruofu's expression changed slightly, and she wanted to say no against her will.
Gu Junsheng gazed at her fair face and said, "I came to Lianzong to promote a new project developed by the company."
Chu Ruofu looked surprised and glanced at the camera in the kitchen. She wanted to remind Gu Junsheng that no one would reveal their hand on a live broadcast. Everyone who comes to a dating show has a purpose and will not say it on camera.
For example, Song Yi wanted to promote her brand and increase its brand awareness through a dating reality show.
Xia Yuqing and Qiao Yimo want to gain a lot of traffic and popularity to increase their fans. Everyone knows this, but they won't put it out in the open, after all, this is a dating reality show.
It's like I spend hundreds of millions to film a dating reality show, but you use the show to promote your own career; it's like you're playing me for a fool.
Gu Junsheng didn't want to have any misunderstandings with Chu Ruofu, so he explained with a slightly solemn expression: "At first, after thinking it over, I thought Qiao Yimo was the best female guest to be paired with, so I sent her my heart-fluttering text message."
Chu Ruofu stared at him blankly.
Isn't Gu Junsheng afraid of being criticized by Qiao Yimo's fans and viewers?
He is ruining his image and damaging his reputation.
How can you just say "exploit" directly?
Gu Junsheng looked at her with deep eyes and said, "Until later, after getting to know you, I couldn't control my feelings for you. When I saw other male guests getting close to you, I felt unhappy and annoyed."
"I think I can no longer ignore my feelings. I like you, and I want to be with you."
Chu Ruofu was completely stunned.
Live stream chat:
[The male lead is too outspoken.]
At first, I thought Gu Junsheng was a cold and aloof person, but I didn't expect him to be so hypocritical, actually trying to take advantage of Sister Momo.
Does the male lead ever tell the truth? Who would dare believe him now?
【Ahhhhhh, he confessed?!】
[So sweet! I'm totally shipping them! The female and male leads are a perfect match, wishing them a long and happy life together.]
In the kitchen, the water was boiling, emitting white steam.
Chu Ruofu's heart pounded faster as she stared blankly at Gu Junsheng, her ears almost unable to believe that Gu Junsheng had actually confessed his love to her during a live broadcast.
Seeing her dazed and adorable appearance, Gu Junsheng couldn't help but lower his head and naturally kiss her lips.
Chu Ruofu felt a warm, moist touch on her lips, and her pupils dilated slightly.
Gu Junsheng pulled her into his arms, gently caressing her lips, his cool voice low and deep: "Don't be unhappy, it will make me feel bad."
He held her lips in his mouth, the cool, woody scent of sandalwood enveloping her entirely, the delicate fragrance so alluring it was intoxicating.
The live stream was so choppy with all the comments.
[The confession and kiss are so sweet, I'm dying of love!]
[He licked me so hard I rolled around in bed. Mr. Gu is so charming! Please let them be together in the finale!]
[It seems like Fu is completely smitten.]
The sound of boiling water came from inside. Chu Ruofu shyly nudged Gu Junsheng and whispered, "The water's boiling."
A faint smile flashed in Gu Junsheng's eyes as he released her.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and a person walked in. Li Yichen looked at the two people standing face to face with a probing gaze.
"Did I disturb you?" His tone showed no sign of apology.
Gu Junsheng glanced at him indifferently.
Li Yichen looked at Chu Ruofu, whose cheeks were flushed, and narrowed his fox-like eyes. He said, "I've come to talk to Chu Ruofu about tomorrow's wilderness survival challenge. She's my partner this time."
Chu Ruofu looked at him: "Let's talk later."
Li Yichen asked lazily, "Are you busy now?"
Chu Ruofu: "I want to eat dinner."
Gu Junsheng turned around and started cooking beef noodles, his movements practiced and efficient.
"I'm waiting for you."
Li Yichen's gaze lingered on Chu Ruofu's lips, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. Even a fool could see what Gu Junsheng and Chu Ruofu had been doing in the kitchen.
Gu Junsheng, who appears aloof and ascetic on the surface, is actually so shameless in private that he can't even control his own desires.
"I really want to wipe away those unsightly marks," Li Yichen thought to himself.
There were three people in the kitchen. Li Yichen was good at livening up the atmosphere, so he talked about some recent events in the entertainment industry. Chu Ruofu wanted to keep her distance from him, but she didn't want to deliberately ignore him.
Gu Junsheng exuded a slight chill. Men are full of hostility towards rivals in love, and if given the chance, they would want to rush up and tear them apart to hunt them down.
“I forgot to tell you, I also accepted the script for ‘The Villainess’,” Li Yichen suddenly said.
Chu Ruofu looked at him with slight shock: "The male lead has been changed?"
How could she not know? Her agent and the production company didn't tell her.
Li Yichen looked at her with lingering eyes: "I'm playing the second male lead, not the male lead."
In the movie "The Villainess," she plays the female lead, while the male lead is a controversial police officer. The story begins from the male lead's perspective, but later unfolds through multiple visual storylines. In the end, the male lead brings the murderer to justice, while she escapes with a clear conscience.
As for the second male lead, he is a villain who has turned evil. He is obsessed with the female lead and has killed many people for her. Because the male lead found out the evidence, he wanted to take her abroad, but she refused. So he tried to kidnap her to go with him.
The two failed to escape, and the male protagonist led the police team to surround and corner them on the road.
He loved her to the point of madness and wanted to take her to hell with him.
She had finally managed to infiltrate high society and gain wealth and fame. She didn't want to die. The second male lead knew she was hypocritical and greedy, but he still loved her. Seeing her pitiful state, he couldn't bear to kill her.
He committed suicide, dying in front of her, finally experiencing the love he had longed for deep in his heart.
She loved him, but that love wasn't enough for her to die with him.
The actor who played the second male lead at the last dinner party was not there. Chu Ruofu knew that the second male lead was not Li Yichen, and a hint of suspicion appeared in her eyes. Could it be that Li Yichen had done something wrong?
Li Yichen's lips immediately darkened: "Don't overthink it. I didn't steal anyone's role. The actor playing the second male lead is sick and needs to have surgery, so he can't perform. I'm here to help him out."
"The beef noodles are ready," Gu Junsheng's cool voice came from inside. "Would you like some cilantro and chopped green onions?"
Chu Ruofu quickly looked at him and said, "No."
Seeing that Gu Junsheng's handsome face was slightly cold, clearly jealous, she quickly walked to his side and tugged at his sleeve.
Gu Junsheng served her a bowl of hot beef noodles and said, "Let's eat at the restaurant."
Chu Ruofu hummed in agreement and followed him to the restaurant.
Li Yichen glanced at their backs, scoffed, and followed them. He was determined to compete and snatch them away. If he didn't step between them and just watched Gu Junsheng and Chu Ruofu's relationship deepen, he would be eliminated.
Chu Ruofu was so hungry that she ignored the two men sitting on either side of her and started eating noodles.
"Be careful, it's hot," Gu Junsheng gently reminded him.
Chu Ruofu gave a soft "hmm".
Li Yichen finally waited until Chu Ruofu finished her beef noodles, then rudely ushered her out: "President Gu, Fumei and I are discussing game missions together, and it's not convenient for outsiders to hear. Please leave."
Chu Ruofu looked at Li Yichen, then at Gu Junsheng, her eyes pleading.
Gu Junsheng was always aloof and polite. He stood up and said indifferently, "It's getting late. Let's get some rest after we finish talking."
Chu Ruofu smiled gently at him: "You should get some rest too."
Li Yichen felt a surge of anger welling up inside him. She had smiled at him so beautifully back when they sang together a few episodes ago.
He secretly used some tricks this time and finally got the chance to work with her, but she kept looking at other male guests.
"Gu Junsheng is gone." Li Yichen's tone was tinged with bitterness. "Don't look anymore."
Chu Ruofu turned around and saw his displeased expression. Her eyes flickered slightly. Shen Wuyang had already entered between her and Gu Junsheng, and she couldn't let anyone else interfere.
"What shall we talk about?" she asked politely.
Li Yichen moved his chair closer to her: "Have you ever played survival games before?"
"No." Chu Ruofu shook her head: "I have zero experience."
"What a coincidence, I don't have any either. Let's watch a wilderness survival video together and learn some important knowledge."
Just as Chu Ruofu was about to search for the video, she heard Li Yichen's voice.
"Before that, I have another question."
Chu Ruofu looked up at him in confusion.
Li Yichen's face was gloomy, his eyes dark and sinister: "You just kissed Gu Junsheng?"

A note from the author:
I was rushing back late last night when I encountered a car accident on the highway. The cargo was scattered all over all four lanes, and I almost couldn't brake in time and crashed into it. It was terrifying.
There will be another update tonight.
