Chapter 35

[Ahhh! I knew the Program Team’s interview wouldn’t be that simple!]

[This rapid-fire round is so satisfying!]

Ning Xi was momentarily stunned, but she still answered within the time limit: “…Xie Lanchen.”

Staff: “Xie Lanchen or Shen Yibai?”

Ning Xi’s expression was hard to describe: “…Xie Lanchen.”

Staff: “Xie Lanchen or Wei Xuan?”

Ning Xi thought about how Jiang Sheshe usually protected Wei Xuan like a mother hen, terrified that Ning Xi might even glance at him: “…Xie Lanchen.”

[Ahhh! My ship is slaying!]

[Ning Xi is really… I’m crying my eyes out.]

[She’s been firmly choosing Xie Lanchen from start to finish. I ship it!]

Fans of the Xilan Flower CP were in a frenzy of celebration.

However, they stopped laughing in the next second.

Staff: “Xie Lanchen or Ning Mingyue?”

[??? What kind of ghost of a question is this?]

This time, Ning Xi didn’t hesitate: “Ning Mingyue!”

Staff: “If one day, Fu Zhi, Shen Yibai, and Wei Xuan all fell into the water and only one could be saved, who would you save?”

Ning Xi said without thinking: “I’d throw stones at them.”

Staff: ?

Netizens: ?

CP fans who were currently shipping Ning Xi and Fu Zhi to death: ?

Staff: “No, you have to save one person.”

Ning Xi: “Then I’d throw stones at the person trying to save them.”

[Good, good, good. You really are a Living Yama.]

[Hahaha, I’ve figured it out. Out of all the Guests, Ning Xi likes Ning Mingyue the most. Among the male guests, she merely doesn’t dislike Xie Lanchen, and then she equally loathes the other three men.]

The ten questions ended quickly, leaving Ning Xi wanting more.

Nowadays, there really weren’t many people left who loved being as chaotic as she was.

Because Ning Xi’s interview was so entertaining and full of personality, the netizens also became interested in the interview segments of the other Guests.

However, when they went to the other Guests’ livestreams, they found that each person’s interview format was different.

Xie Lanchen’s livestream involved answering questions asked by netizens in the bullet chat.

[I’m the Most Stubborn Duck in the Circle: If Xie Lanchen and Shen Yibai pursued me at the same time… well…]

Xie Lanchen raised an eyebrow and replied, “Sorry, I don’t pursue people.”

[My Homework is Pristine and Untouched: I can’t even imagine being with him. If I tried to run away because I was angry, he’d grab me and drag me into his Cullinan, pinning my hands with one hand while steering the wheel with the other as he drives back to his six-story villa. He’d hoist me over his shoulder, stride into the room, and throw me onto that low-key, luxurious, yet sophisticated king-sized bed. Then, pinning my hands above my head, his eyes would turn red as he rasps, ‘Weren’t you so capable? Why aren’t you running now?’ Then he’d grip my waist tightly, hot tears falling onto my back as he says, sounding utterly aggrieved, ‘Don’t leave me, okay?’… I really can’t even imagine it…]

Xie Lanchen read these words out loud, one by one, and then his gaze revealed pure confusion:

“Pinning your hands while driving with one hand? That behavior would be classified as obstructing safe driving, resulting in a fine and a warning. Also, to the student ‘My Homework is Pristine and Untouched,’ I suggest you finish your homework first.”

The netizens were dying of laughter at Xie Lanchen’s deadpan, serious answers. Only ‘My Homework is Pristine and Untouched’ was cringing so hard her toes were curling as she logged off and left this beautiful internet world.

To think someone could read those insane copypastas without changing their expression-was this some new form of public shaming ritual?

…

Shen Yibai’s livestream, on the other hand, was a quiet dialogue-style interview.

When the netizens arrived at his room, they happened to catch the staff asking:

“Since the recording of the variety show began, is there anyone on the program you like?”

Shen Yibai remained silent for several seconds.

It wasn’t until the staff repeated the question: “Mr. Shen Yibai, do you currently have someone you like?”

[So anxious, so anxious! I’m the King of Impatience! Shen Yibai, do you like Ning Mingyue or not?!]

On the other side.

Ning Mingyue was also watching this segment in her own interview room.

She, along with the staff and the netizens, held her breath as she waited for Shen Yibai’s answer.

“Yes.”

A cold, clear voice came from the phone, like a drop of water creating ripples in the lake of Ning Mingyue’s heart.

Finally!

She had finally waited for Shen Yibai to admit he liked her!

The white moonlight CP fans in the bullet chat were all going wild.

[Ahhh! So sweet!!!]

[I knew white moonlight was real, boohoo!]

The staff looked at Ning Mingyue: “Mr. Shen Yibai said he has someone he likes. Miss Mingyue, who do you think he’s talking about?”
