Chapter 108: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character in the Love Variety Show
The time in Sanya was all about having fun, and there were also some small games planned by the program team that everyone had to participate in, so that everyone could form teams and increase their understanding.
On the second night after arriving in Sanya, you need to choose to leave a message.
Gu Wan took the card and put it into Chen Xiu's mailbox again.
So did Shen Xiu.
Tonight is also the time when another program will be broadcast.
The content was about their last lottery draw.
Shen Xiu's name was a high trending search.
The director put the part where Gu Wan and Shen Xiu were chatting outside as a trailer.
The trailer also became a hot topic, and everyone was very anxious. When they finally saw the main film, it was still a scene with no audible content. The director's Weibo was full of comments cursing him.
But the director was very happy, because this was exactly the effect he wanted, proving that the trailer was not deceiving.
The few words Zhou Xiao said to Shen Xiu face to face were also edited by netizens and posted on various video platforms.
Completely exploded.
Neither pair admitted defeat.
The "Xiu Wan" CP has the upper hand.
"Are the people next door blind? Can't they see that Gu Wan likes Chen Xiu?"
"Brother Xiu is a good man. I love him deeply. Who says old men are unreliable?"
"Brother Xiu upstairs is only 26, not an old man."
"Hahahahahahahaha, I almost fainted from laughing."
…
The "Xiao Wan" CP was not affected by the outside world at all, because they believed that Gu Wan really liked Zhou Xiao, and they edited a lot of parts of the two of them, with their eyes full of love. The most popular one was naturally the night talk, and the questions that Gu Wan asked Zhou Xiao made everyone go crazy.
"Gu Wan and Zhou Xiao are real, that's all."
"Of course, they are a perfect match."
…
The broadcast program is as popular as ever.
Gu Wan was standing on the balcony on the second floor and saw that Zhou Xiao seemed to have gone out. She picked up a shawl and went downstairs in slippers.
I happened to meet Zhou Xiao.
"Zhou Xiao, do you want to go out for a walk together?"
Zhou Xiao was surprised by Gu Wan's initiative.
"good."
Two people walked side by side on the beach, enjoying the breeze.
Zhou Xiao looked at Gu Wan's profile.
"The show will end in a week." His tone sounded very relaxed.
Gu Wan looked off into the distance. "Yes, it's nice to meet you. I just returned home and don't have many friends."
Zhou Xiao just raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "Me too." He seemed to be trapped by his past self, thinking that there was only Yang Ruoruo in his life, but now it seems that is not the case.
He can walk out.
The two of them walked and stopped, and talked about many interesting things.
Follow the camera silently behind.
Time always passes quickly in Sanya. When I flew back to H Province, I was actually recognized at the airport.
Later, the airport photos of several people became a hot topic.
"Gu Wan is so beautiful, ahhhhhhhhhh."
"She's a truly elegant and beautiful lady with fair skin."
"I'm uneducated, let me wipe it first."
"It's really beautiful, how did she do it?"
…
Gu Wan clicked on the trending searches on Weibo on the plane and saw photos of herself from various angles.
Not only Gu Wan, but others have also been on the hot search.
Everyone knows that this program is about to end, and they can't wait to see the ending. The part in Sanya has not been aired yet.
After getting off the plane, several people took the car prepared by the director team directly back to the villa. They waited until everyone had rested well before continuing with the following rules.
At eight o'clock in the evening, everyone sat in the living room on the first floor.
Meng Jiaojiao read the card.
"Everyone can make their own choices tomorrow night. We will also record a video for everyone, and you can specify who the video is for."
After she finished reading, she looked at everyone. Speaking of which, should she leave a video for Gu Wan?
"I really miss you all. I won't be able to see you every day anymore."
There was some silence for a while, and although there were some adjustments, the final result was right.
Soon the next morning, everyone went in one by one to record the video, with each person having five minutes.
Meng Jiaojiao went there first.
The director was also in the room where he was recording the video. Since it was the end of the show, he also cleaned up.
Meng Jiaojiao didn't recognize her. She sat on a high bench and made an OK gesture.
"Dear fairy, I'm glad to meet you. Although you don't like to talk and you always make me feel difficult to approach because of your beautiful appearance, I found that you are really a good person during the process of getting along with you. I still remember that night when I cried so hard and you stayed with me silently. Although you didn't say anything, I could feel your love."
The director raised his hand and gestured for pause.
Meng Jiaojiao frowned. What was she doing? She was just getting emotional. Was she being sentimental?
"What's wrong, Director?"
The director pushed up his glasses and said, "The target of this video should be a man."
Meng Jiaojiao just glared at him fiercely, then started recording again angrily. When she turned on the machine, she put on a smiling face again.
"Dear director, I have something to tell you. Although you are stingy and serious, you are actually a good person. I hope your future shows will be popular."
It's very simple, she said, then got off the bench, snorted, turned around and left the room.
The staff in the room looked at each other in confusion.
"Will this work?"
The director nodded and said it was okay. He had observed the discussion and found that everyone really liked watching Meng Jiaojiao's arguments with him. Everything was for the show, and it was nothing to him personally.
The staff member said "oh".
The next person to come in was Gu Wan, and she chose Chen Xiu without any surprise.
Many people recording in the room are actually "Xiu Wan" CPs, and they firmly believe that their CPs will definitely be together in the end.
Gu Wan is very good at finding the right balance, half true and half false, because this is for the audience to see.
After several people finished recording, the director looked at the situation and found it was similar to what he had guessed before.
In the evening, several people had their last meal on the show.
All six people were helping in the kitchen, chatting and laughing.
Zhou Xiao's phone vibrated. He picked it up and saw it was Yang Ruoruo. He turned off the microphone and went to the corner to answer the call.
Yang Ruoruo was crying inconsolably on the phone.
"Zhou Xiao, I'm heartbroken and we broke up again. He said I have someone else in my heart. How is that possible? I was really with him."
Zhou Xiao frowned slightly.
"Ruoruo, where are you now? Today is my last day of recording, and I can't take leave to come see you." He heard the drunken voice, and it was not safe for her to be alone outside.
Yang Ruoruo seemed to have burped.
"Zhou Xiao, don't worry about me."
Zhou Xiao was a little anxious, but the phone had already hung up. He stood there in a daze. Yang Ruoruo could only rely on herself here. If he didn't go, there would be really no one who could help her.
He walked to the director's office.
"My friend has an urgent matter, Director. I have to take some time off. I'll probably be back before the confession ceremony."
The director looked at his anxious expression and said, "Zhou Xiao, this evening is not a joke. I suggest you contact someone else to pick her up."
Zhou Xiao was really worried about her. "No, Director, I have to go back." He said as he took down all the equipment.
The director had no choice but to ask, "Is it someone you like?"
Zhou Xiao was stunned for a moment as he dismantled the equipment. "No, it's just my friend."
The director was not a man without temper. "Okay, if you want to go, it will be considered as withdrawing from the program early. You can't participate in this confession, and you have to pay the penalty."
He knew that Zhou Xiao liked Gu Wan. If he really went there tonight, he would not be able to confess his feelings to Gu Wan. Zhou Xiao did not care about the penalty for breach of contract, but he would definitely care about Gu Wan.
Zhou Xiao was silent for three seconds and then made a choice, "Then consider it as a breach of contract." After he said that, he turned and left the room, then left the villa and drove away.
Gu Wan and the others also received the message that Zhou Xiao gave up on his confession.
Meng Jiaojiao was the least skeptical. How could this be possible? Zhou Xiao was clearly very attracted to Gu Wan.
Gu Wan was not surprised and didn't even react at all.
Zhou Xiao repeatedly persuaded himself on the way that he could explain to Gu Wan later, but it was really dangerous for Yang Ruoruo to get drunk outside alone, so he had to go.
"Ruoruo, where are you? Give me your address."
Yang Ruoruo hesitated for only a moment before giving an address. After hanging up the phone, her eyes were full of smiles, and her friend beside her touched her shoulder.
"Look, we have to give it a try. Otherwise, when will you and Zhou Xiao finally take this step?"
It was because of the show that Yang Ruoruo realized that she actually liked Zhou Xiao.
The friend continued to analyze the situation, "He knows you have friends and has my contact information. He could have called me, so he chose you tonight rather than confessing his feelings to Gu Wan. How sweet! Remember to treat me to wedding candy."
Yang Ruoruo hummed awkwardly, "I'll go put on some makeup."
The friend understood and said, "Go ahead."
It takes Zhou Xiao two hours to drive here.
Things in the villa were continuing to move forward, and the sky gradually darkened.
Zhou Xiao drove to the destination. He was so scared for two hours and was always worried that something might happen to Yang Ruoruo.
Yang Ruoruo was standing at the door, dressed elegantly. She saw Zhou Xiao's car and waved with a smile.
Zhou Xiao got out of the car and strode to her, "Are you okay?"
Yang Ruoruo smiled and said, "What could possibly happen to me? I was the one who broke up with him because I knew I didn't like him, so I came here to eat with Jingjing."
Zhou Xiao looked at her in disbelief.
"Then why did you lie and say you were drunk?"
Yang Ruoruo pursed her lips slightly. She hadn't noticed anything different about Zhou Xiao yet. "Because I want to see if you will give up your show for me. Zhou Xiao, I like you, and you like me too. I don't want to be friends with you anymore. How about we have a relationship?"
She looked at Zhou Xiao boldly and sincerely, her heart full of joy.
Zhou Xiao chuckled and shook his head, taking two steps back, "Yang Ruoruo, what are you crazy about? Are you sick?" He paced back and forth angrily, then opened the car door and got in.
Yang Ruoruo didn't understand what was going on, so she followed him and put her hand on the car door to prevent him from leaving.
"Zhou Xiao, what's wrong? Don't you like me?"
Zhou Xiao's eyes were red, and he suddenly remembered all the questions Gu Wan had asked him. She asked him again and again whether he liked Yang Ruoruo, and asked him who he would choose between friends and girlfriend?
It turned out that she had seen the ending from the beginning. It was his fault for making the wrong choice.
Zhou Xiao didn't push her hard, but raised his hand to check the time.
"Yang Ruoruo, if you dare to waste my time again, I will make you regret it for the rest of your life." He spoke word by word, gritting his teeth.
Yang Ruoruo had never seen Zhou Xiao like this before. She subconsciously let go of his hand, and the car door slammed shut, as if closing the relationship between her and Zhou Xiao for so many years.
Five people were having dinner and recording.
The director also posted on Weibo at the same time.
"Due to Zhou Xiao's personal reasons, he will no longer participate in the subsequent recordings. Thank you for your support."
For a time, it topped the hot search list.
#Zhou Xiao quits the show#
Many people below are still questioning.
The people who care the most are the "Xiaowan" CP, and they don't know what exactly happened.
But the progress was still going on in the villa. After dinner, the yard of the villa had been decorated and everyone went into the small room one by one to watch the video.
Gu Wan went in first because she had two sections, one was left by Shen Xiu and the other was left by Zhou Xiao.
Gu Wan went in and stood in front of the big screen.
The first one to be released was Zhou Xiao’s.
"Hi, Gu Wan, I really don't know what to say. I remember all the questions you asked me, and I think I can do it."
Zhou Xiao on the screen felt a little embarrassed and reached out to scratch his hair.
"So even though there are some misunderstandings between us, I can explain them all. Besides, I'm very determined and just want to leave you a message."
The screen turns off.
There was no expression on Gu Wan's face, but it was indeed a little funny, because what she said and what she did were different. Isn't this the best explanation now?
The director team then played a video.
"Good evening, Gu Wan. It's a pleasure to meet you and get to know you. I hope we can continue to be friends after we leave this show."
Gu Wan likes to be friends with people who can speak normally.
Chen Xiu saw the video Gu Wan left for him.
"Thank you for your care. I hope we can continue to support each other in the future." She spoke briefly.
Shen Xiu was not surprised, but he was thinking about whether to confess to Gu Wan tonight.
Everyone watched all the videos.
The program team arranges the next process.
Everyone was in their own room, making phone calls to the people they loved.
Zhao Qizhen called Xia Meng.
Xia Meng also chose to call Zhao Qizhen.
The first couple successfully chose each other.
The remaining few people did not call.
The director was surprised, but he couldn't deny that it looked best this way, without any arrangements.
The follow-up is a separate personal interview, and it is an interview with people who still choose to be single.
The director and Gu Wan sat opposite each other.
"Don't you have someone you like?"
Gu Wan nodded, "Why else wouldn't I choose?"
The director then asked questions.
"Does this result have anything to do with Zhou Xiao?"
Gu Wan just shook her head.
The director nodded in understanding, "Okay, Gu Wan, I hope you can find your own happiness in the future."
Gu Wan stood up and shook hands with him, "Thank you, Director."
Gu Wan’s dating variety show ends here.
The director continued his interview with Shen Xiu. He actually always admired Shen Xiu. He had a rigorous logic, mature thinking, and knew how to use tactics.
"Why?"
Shen Xiu knew what he was asking, "The time is not up yet."
The director smiled and shook his head, "Okay, then I wish you good luck." After that, both of them ended the interview.
This is his style. He doesn't drag things out or even explain things clearly, so that the audience can't understand.
The last one is Meng Jiaojiao.
The director knew what was going on between them.
"No regrets? No regrets?"
Meng Jiaojiao was completely relieved. "Of course not, but I really like the people I know, especially the fairies."
The director raised an eyebrow. "Okay, that's good. I hope this show brings you a lot of experience and reflections."
Meng Jiaojiao just realized that the director was dressed very respectably today, and she squinted her eyes to look at him.
"Director? What's your name? Do you have a girlfriend?"
The director was immediately stumped by these questions, "What are you talking about?"
Meng Jiaojiao took out her cell phone and handed it to him.
"Leave me your contact information, or I won't leave."
The staff in the back all lowered their heads and tried to hold back their laughter, without saying a word. Their director was highly educated, had his own ideas, and was a very serious person, yet he had ended up like this today.
The director knew Meng Jiaojiao could do it, so he reluctantly took the phone and left his name and contact information.
"You can go now."
Meng Jiaojiao took the phone with satisfaction and said, "Goodbye, Director."
Three people walking in different states.
Today is their last night in the villa, and everyone will return to their own lives tomorrow morning.
The staff are also collecting the equipment.
Zhou Xiao drove back. The equipment in the villa had been packed up and the staff had left overnight. There was still some editing to do later. Everyone hadn't had a rest for a month, so of course they wanted to go home quickly during the holiday.
Gu Wan and Chen Xiu sat on the stairs behind the villa, drinking and chatting.
Zhou Xiao saw the two of them and strode over.
"Are you guys together?"
Gu Wan didn't expect that he would come back?
"Zhou Xiao, didn't you quit? Why are you back? The show is over."
Shen Xiu stood up and stood slightly in front of Gu Wan.
"Yes, I am in trouble. My friend said she was drunk and I was worried she might be in danger."
Gu Wan nodded in sudden realization, "Is that so? She's the girl we met that day."
Zhou Xiao clenched his fists, "Gu Wan, I like you, seriously."
Chen Xiu looked at them quietly. He was very sure that Gu Wan would not agree.
Gu Wan was a little stunned. After a few seconds of silence, she spoke again, "Zhou Xiao, thank you for your love. I don't like you." Her tone was very flat, as if she was talking about today's weather.
Zhou Xiao took another step closer to Gu Wan.
"But you remember what I like to eat? What flowers, drinks, and fruits I like? How could you not like me?"
Gu Wan glanced at Chen Xiu next to her, "Zhou Xiao, I'm really sorry that this has caused you any misunderstanding. In fact, I also remember all of Brother Xiu's habits, including other people, not just you."
Zhou Xiao listened to Gu Wan's cold voice. What she said was indeed so cruel that he was unwilling to believe it.
"But you clearly cared about Yang Ruoruo that day and kept asking me questions?"
Gu Wan denied everything.
"I didn't expect you to think this way, Zhou Xiao. I asked you that question because of the online discussion. I'm really sorry for causing you to misunderstand."
The apology he said was insincere.
Gu Wan looked at Zhou Xiao in front of her. His hair was messy and he looked very tired. Where had he come from? Compared to what the original owner had experienced, these were nothing worth mentioning.
Zhou Xiao still didn't believe it.
Gu Wan looked at him sincerely, "If there is anything you misunderstand, you can tell me and I will answer all of your questions."
Zhou Xiao lowered his head, clenched his fists, and walked straight into the villa without saying a word.
Shen Xiu looked at his back.
"He'll probably be hurt."
Gu Wan didn't care. "Really? But what can we do?"
Chen Xiu was wearing a shirt with sleeves braided to his elbows, and gold-rimmed glasses. He turned his head to look at Gu Wan beside him.
"Come to my house for dinner tomorrow. My mom watched our show and really likes you. She really wants to meet you."
Gu Wan checked the time and said, "Okay, but I have to go home first this morning."
The next morning, everyone left the villa with their suitcases, but Zhou Xiao was nowhere to be seen. He seemed to have left in the middle of the night.
Meng Jiaojiao took Gu Wan's arm and pulled her aside mysteriously.
"What's going on? Brother Xiu didn't choose you? You didn't choose Brother Xiu either. Could it be that you really like Zhou Xiao?"
Gu Wan found her adorable. "No, don't overthink it. Emotional issues are too complicated."
A week later, the finale was aired.
That night almost dominated the entire trending search list, there were too many people crying, and only one couple became a couple.
But fans of the other two couples were crying loudly.
"Can someone tell me why Zhou Xiao left!!! I'm going to become a hater."
"Zhou Xiao, what are you doing?"
There are 200,000 comments under Zhou Xiao’s Weibo, all questioning what he is doing?
But his Weibo post is still just a greeting.
Shen Xiu was not immune to this, but because he didn’t have a Weibo account, he didn’t receive any private messages or comments, but the director received a lot.
In addition, people were asking the same question everywhere under Meng Jiaojiao’s Weibo. She also posted a crying emoji and replied to the hot comments.
"Stop talking. I'm also a fan of the bowl repair shop. Do you know how painful I was when I heard the news?"
Below are a series of crying expressions.
The director’s three subsequent interviews also had a huge number of views, but just watching them was horrible.
The director’s interview with Shen Xiu was sent in a separate Weibo post.
"No? What does that mean?"
"Can you speak human language?"
"Why don't I understand?"
"I want the truth about what happened."
"The people upstairs won't tell us the truth."
…
The first domestic dating variety show has come to an end, although there are many regrets.
The director posted on Weibo.
"It's normal to feel unhappy. A good relationship requires the right time, place, and people."
Then this Weibo post was scolded over and over again by fans. Later, if they saw a variety show directed by this director, this sentence would still appear in the barrage, constantly reminding them that this was the BE love variety show given to them by this director.
Gu Wan didn't expect to see Yang Ruoruo at the door of the studio. She was a little surprised.
"Who are you?"
She said that just meeting him once was not worth remembering.
Yang Ruoruo looked very haggard.
"You were dating Zhou Xiao. We met at the amusement park."
Gu Wan thought for a moment before nodding.
"So it's you?"
Yang Ruoruo pursed her lips tightly. She didn't know why she was always confident when she saw Gu Wan, and she pinched her sleeves.
"Can we talk?"
Gu Wan nodded, "Of course, please come in." She then asked someone to make coffee.
Yang Ruoruo followed Gu Wan into the office. The office was a mess, with drawing boards and paints everywhere. She suddenly realized what the gap was.
"Please sit down." Gu Wan sat casually on the sofa next to her.
Yang Ruoruo hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Can you go see Zhou Xiao? He's not feeling well."
Gu Wan asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
Yang Ruoruo explained what happened that day again, "Actually, he likes you, but he gave up because of me. Can you give her a chance?"
The secretary came in with coffee, put it down and left.
Gu Wan refused directly, "Ms. Yang, what should I say? I think Zhou Xiao likes you. He ran over when he heard you were in danger. Deep down, he must be thinking of you, not me. Besides, I don't like him either."
Why did he go to see him? Where was he when the original owner gradually became depressed under his mental pressure?
Yang Ruoruo snapped her fingers together and asked softly, "You really don't like him?"
Gu Wan pursed her lips and nodded, "Yes."
She is always a man of few words.
Yang Ruoruo didn't stay any longer. "Sorry to bother you," she said and left.
Gu Wan was in a good mood and picked up the paintbrush and started painting again.
