Chapter 5 You are special, you are different from other girls.
According to the program's rules, people who receive text messages can decide whether to reply.
If you reply, you can only reply one message.
The person who receives the reply can no longer continue the conversation.
Of course, Qin Shuo would definitely not reply to her letter.
He would be lucky if he didn't get mad to death after receiving such a text message.
Chu Ling originally thought that he would not receive any heart-warming text messages.
It was only the first day, and aside from the original male lead who had obvious feelings for the female lead, and the male lead Lu Shixuan who clearly disliked her, the other people's relationship lines were unclear. Furthermore, she hadn't interacted with any other male guests today.
Unexpectedly, when she came back from taking a shower, she found a new message on her phone.
Anonymous text message: [Excuse me, what color do you like?]
What color do you like?
Chu Ling thought about it and replied: [Gold.]
Gold, the color of gold.
Expensive, very safe.
That night, neither the text messages exchanged nor the male guests' dates were announced.
Audiences in the live broadcast room can predict the results on the platform, and all selected viewers will have a chance to win a lottery from the program team, so everyone started placing bets.
[Who will Qin Shuo choose? To be honest, I don't want to choose anyone. I can't tell who would be his ideal type. It's too difficult to choose!]
[Compared to Qin Shuo, isn't it harder to choose Chu Ling? ]
[It's not difficult. First, we have to rule out the male lead.]
【Then Qin Shuo is ruled out.】
[This is so funny. Who would want to choose Chu Ling?]
[I just took a look at the order in which they answered the questions. Male No. 3 Jiang Yicheng got the fewest questions right. So that should be him, right? Hahaha?]
[Anyway, I won't watch whoever chooses Chu Ling. If I had that much time, I'd definitely be watching the other three groups and definitely not contributing any traffic to Chu Ling's livestream!]
…
The next morning, Chu Ling finally woke up reluctantly after three alarm clocks rang.
Today is the date day. After waking up, all the female guests will receive a letter from the program team, which will mark the meeting place between them and the male guests.
Chu Ling washed her face, sat in front of the dressing mirror and started to put on makeup.
She thought casually, the person who texted her yesterday was probably the one who would ask her out today, right?
So what did his text message yesterday mean?
Chu Ling communicated with the system: "Isn't it going to ask about my preferences and then buy me gold as a gift?"
Then she would really be a little moved!
System: "...You think too much."
After completing the preparations, Chu Ling took the car prepared for her by the program crew and arrived at the meeting place.
As soon as she got off the car, she saw a young man wearing a black and gold suit, a pair of black-framed glasses, and long wolf-tail hair leaning against the car not far away. When he saw her coming, he turned around and smiled at her.
The second male lead is Lin Zirun.
The young writer who exudes the aura of a literary youth.
This surprised Chu Ling a little.
When she approached, Lin Zirun considerately opened the car door for her: "Ms. Chu, welcome."
Chu Ling sat in the passenger seat confidently.
Lin Zirun got in the car. She glanced at his clothes and showed a playful expression for a second: "You were the one who sent the text message yesterday, right?"
"uh-huh."
Lin Zirun smiled slightly and said, "However, there are really few golden clothes, so I paired them with black as a foil. I hope you like it."
He looked at Chu Ling, hiding a hint of disappointment.
Who would have thought that she said she liked gold, but she didn't wear any gold elements and couldn't even pick up on any hints.
Chu Ling: “…”
Thank you, she thought it was a hint to ask her what color gift she wanted.
It turns out that the only question is, what color do you like to see me wearing?
This way of pleasing people...really has zero cost.
"Which one are you chosen?"
Chu Ling lowered his head to fasten his seat belt and asked casually, "The last one?"
Lin Zirun shook his head: "No, the second one."
Chu Ling raised an eyebrow: "Really? Why?"
Lin Zirun had already decided to choose Chu Ling.
A female star like Chu Ling, who has a beautiful appearance but an empty brain, doesn't seem to be a good match for him.
However, he certainly did not come to this dating show to find a partner, but to establish a good persona so that he could sell books later.
Among these female guests, although Chu Ling has negative rumors, she is also the absolute queen of topics. Being with her, the traffic will definitely not be less.
If Chu Ling performs well, he can go for a warm and healing style, hype that he discovered and saved a girl who was deeply trapped in negative public opinion, unearthed her shining points, and even create a CP with a female star to attract fans.
If Chu Ling's performance is really as bad as the rumors say, then he can naturally serve as a foil for him.
Of course, Lin Zirun also has a very selfish motive.
He glanced at Chu Ling secretly.
Chu Ling is worthy of being a female star. Even though she is not dressed very formally today and her skirt is very plain, her beauty is still rich and sharp.
Being able to date a beautiful star of this level is a win no matter how you look at it.
When the time comes, he will process this experience and write it into his next book, which will earn him another wave of traffic.
Lin Zirun coughed and pretended to be shy, saying, "When we first met, I felt that you were very special."
Chu Ling said with a forced smile: "Special?"
Very annoying, right?
"I've seen you on TV before, but I didn't expect that when I first saw you, you were much more beautiful than on TV."
Lin Zirun said, "Also, the feeling he gave me was different from other stars I've seen."
oh.
This is a combo that shows you are special and different from other girls.
That's enough bro.
I'm tired of hearing this trick.
Chu Ling didn't want to continue the topic, so he just asked, "Okay, where are we going today?"
Lin Zirun said mysteriously, "You'll know when you get there."
At this moment, the program team detected that the number of people waiting in the live broadcast room of [Chu Ling-Lin Zirun] dating was increasing.
Apart from Qin Shuo who has his own fans, Chu Ling is actually ranked second.
[With this number of viewers, didn't you say last night that you wouldn't watch no matter who chose Chu Ling?]
[…I’m not here to see Chu Ling, I’m here to see the second male lead! After all, the second male lead is indeed my ideal type!]
[+1, if it weren't for the second male lead, who would contribute traffic to Chu Ling?]
[Forget it, let's not beat around the bush. I came here to see Chu Ling. I wanted to see what she was going to do this time, hahahaha.]
After driving for an hour and arriving at the destination, Lin Zirun revealed the answer to her.
"A photographer I really like is coming to this city to hold a month-long photography exhibition."
"I've always wanted to come and see it, but I've never had the time or opportunity, and no one is willing to accompany me."
Lin Zirun looked at her and invited her tenderly, "I wonder if I would be honored to be with you today?"
Chu Ling: “…”
Everyone is here, the tickets are bought, and the cameras are facing each other.
How could she refuse?
Sure enough, Lin Zirun seemed to be at his ease in this photography exhibition.
"Look at this one. It's the photographer's most famous work, the one that won the Hasselblad International Photography Award that year. It's also my favorite of his."
“Both the composition and the color tone are simply perfect.”
Lin Zirun said with an immersive look on his face, "Looking at his works is a complete visual aesthetic feast."
Chu Ling followed beside him, but seemed to be lacking interest.
【What's with Chu Ling's expression? 】
[He seems uninterested, and probably doesn't even know the photographer.]
[What does she know? She can tell at a glance that she is a fool.]
[I knew I chose the wrong guy for the second male lead, ahhhhh Lin Zirun, run away!]
Chu Ling: “…”
In fact, Chu Ling just wanted to say that this was also a pretense.
It turns out that no matter when or where, as long as men think they know something, they will deliberately try to show it off.
If Lu Shixuan is pretending, he is pretending to be an elite and superior person.
Lin Zirun, on the other hand, has another level of petty bourgeois and intellectual style.
Lin Zirun asked Chu Ling: "Do you know why I like photography?"
Chu Ling shook his head.
Lin Zirun said: "Many people have asked me where I got the courage to quit my job—"
Chu Ling: “?”
She looked around.
Zero people here asked you.
The topic turned even harder than the beef Qin Shuo stewed yesterday.
"I said, because the world is so big, I want to see it."
"During my unemployed travels, I experienced a lot of natural beauty. Because my eyes couldn't see enough, I thought of using a camera to record them and make them my precious memories. That's how I gradually fell in love with photography."
"Although I have seen many beautiful scenery along the way, but——"
He looked at Chu Ling affectionately and said, "I have never seen a scenery like yours. Perhaps this show will also be an important experience in my life."
"If I have the chance, I'd also like to take a precious photo of you. Even if... we don't have any development in the future, I dare say that it will still be a treasure that I'll treasure once in my lifetime."
When the barrage of comments erupted with calls of romance, Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly.
"You want me to take a photo?"
She asked.
Lin Zirun nodded, but vaguely felt that there was something wrong with what she said.
“That’s for a fee.”
Chu Ling thought for a second, then pretended to be generous and said, "But if you don't use it for commercial purposes, I can reluctantly give you a discount."
Just kidding, how much does a normal model photography session cost.
She is still a star. Even if it is not used as a business order, at least she has to be paid.
system:"……"
Lin Zirun: “…”
Lin Zirun laughed awkwardly twice: "This joke is really funny."
He was silent for a moment, then continued, "Chu Ling, I believe you are not as you appear. Perhaps you are used to using jokes to close your heart and want to keep others away. I guess, deep down, you are actually a soft-hearted girl who is afraid of getting hurt."
Chu Ling: “…”
Really not.
"You've been keeping yourself very closed off, but this isn't good for your relationships."
Lin Zirun looked at her and said gently, "This state is like a typical defense mechanism of avoidant attachment. I'm guessing that your childhood—or perhaps your original family—has brought you bad memories or experiences, causing you to subconsciously avoid intimacy in adulthood."
【Oh my god, I feel like he's really good at analysis.】
[He's so gentle to Chu Ling, who has such a bad personality. The second male lead is truly an ideal person.]
Only Chu Ling curled his lips and sneered secretly.
Are you using her to apply the formula?
