Lin Yunfei lowered her head and chuckled to herself.
It seems Dad made the right choice this time; Muto Makoto pulled this tactic as soon as he arrived.
Although the method was despicable, it did indeed embarrass Jian Zhizhen.
Jian Zhizhen also realized that Muto was bullying her in an American-style bullying manner.
The style of bullying varies from country to country. American bullying can be summed up in one sentence: "I invite everyone to my house, but I won't invite you!"
This is what Muto Makoto did today.
I prepared a gift for everyone, but I didn't prepare one for her.
But... Jian Zhizhen doesn't understand how he came up with this idea?
Most of the guests on the show have a good impression of her. Are they just going to stand by and watch her be bullied?
She trusted her boyfriend, best friend, brother...
She didn't need to lift a finger for this today—
Just as he thought of this, Qin Yu raised his hand and tossed away Mutō Makoto's greeting gift.
Whoosh—snap—
The exquisite little box flew through the air in a perfect arc.
It landed steadily in the trash can.
Qin Yubai said expressionlessly, "If Zhenzhen doesn't want it, neither do I."
Muto Makoto's smug smile slowly froze, and his face instantly turned bright red. He stared at Qin Yubai for several seconds before stammering, "You... it's very impolite of you to directly refuse someone's gift!"
Qin Yubai slowly retorted, "Preparing a gift for everyone is important, but it's impolite to leave out just one person. If you're impolite to others, they'll be impolite to you in return."
Muto Makoto was so angry that his breathing became heavy. He glared at Qin Yubai and said, "Although... although it's not impossible to do this, if you have to do it this way, you should at least throw away the gift I carefully prepared behind my back. Throwing away a gift in front of me is just too much!"
I don't know why, but he rambled on and on, and there was a sense of grievance in his speech.
But Qin Yubai didn't tolerate it at all, and said without changing his expression, "I have no manners."
[A-Tan always wants to eat zongzi: Hahaha, Qin Shen is really making me laugh to death. "Zhenzhen doesn't want it, so I don't want it either." "I have no manners" really doesn't accept moral blackmail at all, hahaha...]
[The Zongzi Who Always Wants to Be Eaten: Ahhh, Qin Shen openly stood up for Zhenzhen! Where are the fans who said the main character hadn't acknowledged it? Come out and see! If this isn't an admission, what is?]
[You're right, but good friends can go to this much; this isn't quite love, so stop hyping it up, CP fans.]
[Jiu Lulu: I was going to recommend you visit our Zhenxiang Dabai CP fan forum to see the details we've always picked out, but I think it's unnecessary. I bet they'll admit to their relationship in this last episode. Just keep watching.]
Xu Qiuyuan had already decided not to accept the gift when he saw that Jian Zhizhen hadn't given him one.
However, she wasn't as direct as Qin Yubai, who threw the things high in the air as if afraid others wouldn't see them.
She simply let it go silently.
Now, noticing that Jian Zhizhen hadn't said anything, she feared that Jian Zhizhen was feeling awkward, so she went over and pulled her along, saying, "Zhenzhen, let's go to the kitchen..."
Jian Zhizhen understood her worries, turned to her and smiled, indicating with her eyes that she was alright.
Then, turning to Muto Makoto, he declared directly, "Muto Makoto, since you've provoked me, we've officially started this feud."
It's the last episode, and she's going to retire from the entertainment industry after it ends.
Why should we show any leniency?
She's already made up her mind and doesn't care about how things will go in the future.
Muto Makoto originally wanted to proceed gradually, but now that even Chien Chih-chen couldn't bear it, he couldn't bear it either.
He snorted coldly, his hot-bloodedness tinged with arrogant disdain: "Hmph, as annoying as ever! Bring it on! Please let me expose your ugly true colors with a death wish! Otherwise, I'd rather be a dog!"
Jian Zhizhen gave a slight smile: "Remember what you said."
[Tang Chu: As expected of this year's finale, the very first day was so explosive! This is the first time Zhenzhen has ever made such a bold statement on a show, I'm really looking forward to it!]
[Qiao: A true fan, he's already ordered a dog leash for Wu online and sent it to him.]
[An ordinary, unambitious person: But what grudge does Mutou Makoto have against Zhenzhen? And what did he say about Zhenzhen's true identity? Zhenzhen's true identity is an incredibly cute, intelligent, and beautiful woman. Did he misunderstand something?]
[Gongsun Sishu: I don't know, it seems like Mutō Makoto isn't thinking straight... He even wants to isolate Zhenzhen, what was he thinking? This behavior is similar to saying "You guys are all surrounded by me," he's the one who's embarrassed.]
Qin Yubai's straightforward behavior did indeed embarrass Mutou, and director Lin Yi also noticed his awkwardness.
At this point, he should have maintained friendly relations with the guests and resolved their grudges to prevent them from escalating the conflict.
But tonight it was Muto Makoto who provoked her first; Zhenzhen did nothing wrong.
Therefore, they couldn't say anything to ease tensions.
He had already quietly put down Muto Makoto's gift, with no intention of accepting it.
At this moment, he stiffly instructed Muto Makoto to go outside and tidy up the garden, and also assigned tasks to the other guests, sending Zhenzhen and Qin Yubai upstairs to tidy up the public corridor.
Having achieved this level of dedication, he has already managed to approach his work with a detached and emotionless attitude.
But Lin Yunfei was still very upset.
She knew he used to be very rational; work was work, and emotions were emotions, and they were separate.
Why isn't he smiling and helping Muto Makoto out of this predicament? Has he started openly favoring Jian Zhizhen?
