Chapter 81 I Didn’t Choose Her, We Are in Love
"There are... six."
Rongzhen's words were met with boos from everyone, especially the audience in the live broadcast room.
I thought Cheng Shen would have eight-pack abs, but why only six?
In fact, six-pack abs are normal. Eight-pack abs are either a natural gift or the result of deliberately spending time in the gym or doing hard labor. No one can have eight-pack abs easily.
After this episode, the game continued.
Finally, after Rongzhen's efforts, he managed to pull himself out of the bottom three and became the fourth from the bottom.
So Yun Fanfan, who was originally second to last, became last, while Chu Xicheng remained at the top of the list until the end of the game.
It can be said that they are worthy of being the hero and heroine in the story. One is the first in the positive number, and the other is the last in the negative number. They look at each other from afar, how perfect a match they are.
It is just right for the male lead to use his rights as the top three to select the female lead, and pull her out of the bottom three, so that they can develop feelings for each other in the next episode.
This is driven by the power of the plot, and it depends on whether the male and female protagonists are willing to cooperate.
Rongzhen believes that he does not have the ability to influence the plot. The collapse of the plot of each mission is actually caused by the protagonist himself from within, such as the male protagonist.
Outsiders, supporting characters, or cannon fodder don’t have that much ability.
Now, with the help of the plot and his own efforts, Rong Zhen has finally escaped the crisis of being forcibly chosen by Chu Xicheng, and has also barely brought the plot development back on track. I hope he can cooperate more in the future and not go astray again.
With such expectations, Rongzhen didn't stand by to watch him choose the female lead. Instead, she turned to Li Jin and asked, "I wonder if our Captain Li is planning to participate in the next episode of the follow-up variety show?"
Li Jin understood: "You want to successfully hold hands with me in this episode, and then become my partner in the next episode?"
Rong Zhen nodded. "Only if you're willing to participate and your people agree."
Li Jin performed well in this episode and is very likely to participate in the next episode, but he has a team behind him and may not agree to let Rong Zhen team up with him.
After all, no matter how popular Rongzhen is now, he is just an 18th-tier unknown star who has just started out. Who knows if he will be a flash in the pan.
What's more, her only popularity came from her relationship with the big movie star. If Li Jinmao rashly intervened at this time, it would easily cause attacks or disgust from the other party's fans.
Even though they all knew how rational the movie emperor's fans were, Li Jin couldn't afford to take that risk considering his status and influence.
But sometimes, wealth and honor are often sought at the cost of risk. If Li Jin's team can withstand the pressure and allow him to successfully snatch the best actor's 'sweetheart', spark controversy and popularity, and then prove himself with his strength, it can be regarded as a shortcut to leapfrogging from an idol to a top star.
Li Jin himself is not uninterested in this, otherwise he would not have suddenly confessed to Rong Zhen before.
Rongzhen knows her own limitations and doesn't think she can attract Li Jin away from the heroine unless the other party has other purposes.
She now wants to use this purpose to complete the plot mission and avoid the male protagonist at the same time.
Although this is not very friendly to the male protagonist, it's his own fault for going astray.
"Go back and think about it. I'll wait for you for three days." Rong Zhen didn't persist. After extending an olive branch to Li Jin, she prepared to leave.
Li Jin suppressed the playful smile on his face and nodded seriously: "Okay, I'll discuss it with my agent and give you an answer later."
The two shook hands and reached a preliminary cooperation intention.
"What are you doing?" Chu Xicheng asked quietly from a distance while they were shaking hands.
Rong Zhen naturally let go of his hand and turned to look. Seeing Yun Fanfan beside him, she smiled with satisfaction: "Nothing, have you made your choice?"
In fact, what she wanted to ask more was whether the hero had chosen the heroine this time. At this point, he should have a normal mind and know that he should choose his true love.
How come the male protagonist always takes advantage of a supporting role like her?
Amidst Rong Zhen's inner complaints, Chu Xicheng nodded and said, "Well, I've chosen."
Rongzhen's smile suddenly turned into a smile, "Congratulations, and I hope to see you again on the next show."
Li Jin understood what she meant and looked back and forth between the three of them in surprise. "I didn't expect this to be the final result. No wonder Jiaojiao wanted to team up with me. It turns out that they..."
Before he could finish his words, Yun Fanfan hurriedly explained: "You misunderstood. Actor Chu didn't choose me. I, I came here to find my idol." As he said this, he looked at Li Jin shyly.
Chu Xicheng kept staring at Rong Zhen, "Do you want to choose him?"
Rongzhen avoided his gaze and said, "I just discussed it with him. If nothing unexpected happens, we will participate in the next show together."
"I understand." Chu Xicheng walked past her and went straight towards Li Jin.
Yun Fanfan smiled shyly at Rong Zhen and followed.
Rongzhen should have been happy when she saw them passing by one after another, but she felt a little lost for a moment.
Maybe this is a flaw in human nature, and she will try hard to overcome it.
The show finally came to the hand-holding segment.
Of the original five male and five female guests, only two pairs successfully held hands in the end, namely Wei Qiheng and Qiao Yuzhu, and Yun Fanfan and Li Jin.
In the end, Li Jin chose Yun Fanfan and gave up the risk of cooperating with Rong Zhen.
Rongzhen thought that the hero and heroine could be together successfully this time. Even if not, they could just hold hands and participate in the show together according to the plot. As a result, the Nth male supporting role suddenly appeared, and it seemed that he was the heroine's white moonlight.
Rong Zhen felt choked up, and waved her hands weakly at Li Jin who came to apologize: "It's okay, you have the right to choose freely."
Li Jin glanced at someone walking towards him without leaving any trace, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay, I hope we can see you in the next episode."
He ran away before the movie star arrived.
"What's wrong? Are you sad because you didn't succeed in holding hands with her?" Chu Xicheng asked with a smile while standing one step behind Rong Zhen.
Rong Zhen turned around and looked at the tall and graceful him, shaking her head and sighing, "No, it's just that my original plan fell through. By the way, why didn't you choose Yun Fanfan?"
If he had chosen Yun Fanfan, she wouldn't have to worry now.
Chu Xicheng's smile disappeared, and he crossed his arms and looked up and asked, "Why should I choose her?"
Rong Zhen noticed that he didn't seem moved at all by the mention of Yun Fanfan. Her bad feeling instantly reached its peak, and she asked tentatively, "Don't you think she's adorable? She glows like an angel, doesn't she?"
Chu Xicheng looked her up and down with an unfathomable look in his eyes, then suddenly walked closer, patted her shoulder with his big hand and said, "Come, look up at me."
Rongzhen looked up at him with a puzzled look in his head, "What?"
Chu Xicheng uttered a few cold words from between his warm lips: "Wash your eyes!"
Rong Zhen: “…”
What do you mean? Do you think she has low standards?
But Yun Fanfan was the one you were supposed to like, it has nothing to do with her.
After being rejected, Rongzhen simply ignored it.
After the recording of the show was over, her agent Sister Zhang drove with her assistant Xiaoyue to pick her up in person.
Rongzhen greeted everyone, turned around and got into the car and left without looking at someone's expressionless face.
In the car, Sister Zhang was very satisfied with Rongzhen's performance on this dating variety show. "Jiaojiao, you've become famous. Although not as famous as that little amateur Yun Fanfan who came out of nowhere, you've benefited the most among the other female contestants. Recently, several brands have contacted me, wanting you to endorse them. I've also received many business invitations. I've picked out two or three of the higher-end ones. I'll definitely not let you down."
Rong Zhen paused after hearing the last sip of water and warned her in advance, "Sister Zhang, I've been kicked out. I'm no longer a young lady."
She was telling the truth, but people who heard her would misinterpret it.
Sister Zhang was only surprised for a moment, then quickly understood and said, "Did your family find out you've been secretly entering the entertainment industry? It's okay, it's okay. Once I've made you a big star and achieved some success, I'll prove it to them. Then they'll give in."
After all, there is no overnight hatred among relatives. As long as they know that the entertainment industry is not just about those messy people and things, but also about clean places and people who are dedicated to their artistic careers, they will naturally accept their daughter's career.
Sister Zhang believed that the Qiao family was against their daughter entering the entertainment industry and that was why they kicked her out. However, she did not know that what she thought was based on the premise that Rong Zhen was really the daughter of the Qiao family.
Considering the original owner's personality and the development of the plot, it was not the time to tell her the truth, so Rong Zhen did not reveal any further information, but just laid the groundwork in advance.
Sister Zhang comforted her and did not ask any further questions. Instead, because of the information she told her, she began to arrange activities for her.
In the past, out of consideration for the Qiao family's reaction, they were very cautious in accepting jobs, and always stayed at the 18th line to play house with the young lady. They didn't dare to make more money, nor did they dare to provide her with more opportunities, for fear that they would become popular by accident and be discovered by the Qiao family.
Now that the Qiao family knows that the eldest daughter has officially left the castle and is ready to support herself, shouldn’t they work harder to let the Qiao family see their abilities?
There is an opportunity right now, maybe we can help the young lady soar to the top.
Sister Zhang was thinking about the plan, and after sending Rongzhen to the apartment, she left with great enthusiasm to make arrangements.
Rongzhen, on the other hand, had some free time and a day off.
She didn't do anything that day. She just fell into a deep sleep, making up for the sleep she had missed during the past few days of participating in the dating variety show and relieving her tense emotions.
After all, she is not a professional in the entertainment industry. When she first arrived, she was suddenly sent to the scene of the show for live broadcast and recording. There was also a male lead who was ready to go off the rails at any time. You can imagine how much psychological pressure she was under.
Rongzhen wanted to give herself a thumbs up for being able to persevere to the end.
Now that she could finally relax and rest, she lay down all day until she had enough sleep, and only got up to look for food at Xiaoyue's worried urging.
Xiaoyue brought her the fat-reducing meal that she had prepared earlier, and while watching her finish eating, she reported on what had happened that day.
"Tomorrow you have an endorsement and two business events. Sister Zhang has arranged them for you."
"We're still selecting roles for several scripts. We've got a new acting teacher at our company, and Sister Zhang wants you to learn from her and hone your acting skills."
"Also, there's a friend request from a stranger on your private contact number. The note seems to be Mr. Chu. Do you want to accept it?"
Rongzhen took the phone and looked at the friend request.
The avatar is a hand holding a pen in a black suit, as if signing some document. The nickname is "Wind in the Sky", and the note contains a single character "Chu".
