Chapter 55 - 55 A Little Wooden Stick
55 A Little Wooden Stick
“Is that the new male guest?” Yu Ziqian secretly sized up the back of the man.
This man was dressed in custom-made clothes, and even his wristwatch was a luxury brand. It was worth more than a million yuan, even more expensive than Zhou Yufan!
They only wondered how he looked.
The others were all curious about the new male guest, but their expressions were unpredictable.
Others might not recognize him, but how could she not know this back?
Even last night she had encountered this sight at the gym.
Shi Ran put her hand to her forehead helplessly.
At that moment, the man in front seemed to sense movement behind him and turned.
It was morning, and the sun was strong and warm by the sea. It shone on the man like a halo.
The sea breeze ruffled the man’s short hair as he stood there and smiled elegantly at everyone.
“So handsome…” Yu Ziqian could not help but exclaim.
She had thought that with so much money and a good figure, it wouldn’t matter if he looked average.
In the end, she did not expect this man to be so handsome!
‘But… he looks familiar.’
The next second, Yu Ziqian’s eyes widened in shock. “Is it Chu Jinchen?!”
The others gasped, too.
Before this, perhaps very few of them knew what Chu Jinchen looked like, but they had already seen him from the scandal between Shi Ran and Chu Jinchen.
This man’s appearance was too demonic. He could be remembered at a glance.
Everyone stepped forward, feeling a little uneasy as they greeted him.
On one hand, it was because they did not know each other. The other being that the other party’s identity was too different from theirs.
Such a big shot would actually participate in a romance variety show?
In a daze, everyone dragged their suitcases into the cottage.
The cabin was only two stories tall, but whether it was the shell decorations or the decoration on the wall wounds, it was filled with the smell of the ocean.
After touring the house, everyone came to the living room.
Chu Jinchen naturally sat beside Shi Ran.
“KT going out of business?” Shi Ran asked.
Little did she know that the people around her were shocked by her direct question.
This was no ordinary person. He was the president of the KT Group and the main investor of this show.
Shi Ran didn’t know that she was courting death?!
Chu Jinchen chuckled softly. “I’ll experience the variety show KT invested in personally.”
Director Wang shuddered. He could no longer relax from then on.
If his investor came to experience it personally, he would have to be extremely vigilant.
“Ahem.” Director Wang coughed. “First of all, let’s welcome our new guest, Chu… Jinchen.”
It was too difficult for him to directly say this big shot’s name.
Applause then sounded.
“Starting this week, we’re going to use a whole new set of rules. We’re going to use full-stream mode. We’ve been doing it since you guys got off the bus.”
Saying that, the big screen beside Director Wang opened. The screen was playing the scene of the guests sitting on the sofa at this moment. There were even comments flying past crazily.
[So handsome!! The new guest is so handsome!!!]
[Is it marketing? He had only appeared on Shi Ran’s live broadcast last week, but he immediately became a new guest this week.]
[Are you serious about marketing? Does a sugar daddy need marketing?]
[That scene at the door just now was so cool!!]
[Could it be that the handsome guy is here for our Master Ran??]
[Can those people who say Shi Ran is a couple with Chu Jinchen wake up? Does Jinchen even like her?]
[Full-stream mode!! Does that mean I’ll get to see so many handsome men and beautiful women every day?]
From the moment Chu Jinchen appeared on screen, the comments went crazy.
The future heir of a top wealthy family and the youngest president of the KT Group. Just these two points alone were enough to make people feel inferior.
And now someone at the top of the pyramid was right in front of them, and he was so handsome. How could anyone not be excited?
A certain dressing room.
“Sister Yufei! You’re really too beautiful!” Xiao Qi exclaimed. “If I were Third Young Master Chu, I would die of happiness to have such a beautiful fiancée.”
“You’re so talkative.” Wen Yufei poked Xiao Qi’s forehead.
Xiao Qi smiled foolishly. “It’s the truth. Shi Ran thought that she could get close to Third Young Master. Third Young Master probably doesn’t even know what kind of little onion she is.”
Wen Yufei smiled and did not take Shi Ran to heart.
At that moment, the manager walked in quickly. “Yufei, do you know about Third Young Master being on ‘Love Warning’?”
“What?” Wen Yufei was stunned.
‘Love Warning?’
Then, the manager showed Wen Yufei the trending content on her phone.
Wen Yufei felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She looked at the contents of the trending topic in disbelief.
“How… how is this possible…” She lost her balance and almost fell to the ground. It was Xiao Qi who quickly caught her.
“Why would Jinchen go on a love variety show?” She looked at Chu Jinchen’s face on the screen in a daze and the scene that flashed past.
Her eyes darkened.
She picked up her phone and dialed Ji Wenfeng’s number.
The House by the Sea
Director Wang continued, “Not only will it be broadcasted live, but the elimination rules will also change. In the next three days, the male and female guests will have to form teams. They will play in pairs and win points together.”
“Points can be used to exchange for daily food ingredients and on the last day, you will be ranked according to your points. The person who comes last, unfortunately, will have to leave our show.”
“Director Wang, do you mean that the person you team up with has to be different every day?” Yu Ziqian asked first. When she asked, she even glanced at Chu Jinchen from the corner of her eye.
If she could team up with Chu Jinchen, she would gain benefits for sure!
“Every day, a team of guests will be selected through different methods. Today’s team method is telepathy. There are four cabins outside. The female guests can choose a token to enter the cabin.”
“The male guests will decide their order of cabin selection through a competitive game. They will then get to choose their cabins and guess who is the owner of the token through the small hole in the cabin. If they guess correctly, they will be able to team up successfully.”
“Now the female guests can take the tokens and choose a cabin to go in and wait.”
The female guests rose and headed out.
Shi Ran rummaged through her bag and finally took the candy that Fang Tongtong had given her in the morning.
There were four cabins, each a meter apart. Except for the small opening in front of them, they were almost airtight.
Shi Wenfei was the first to suggest, “Let’s just take our pick. It’s all pretty much the same.”
“Sure.”
“Then I’ll take the first room,” Yu Zixi said eagerly, holding the pen in her hand.
The male guests would definitely start from the first room first. This way, she would have a higher chance of coming into contact with Chu Jinchen.
“Then I’ll be second,” Shi Wenfei said.
“I’ll take the last one.” Shi Ran headed for the last one.
Five minutes later, Chu Jinchen, who had won the game, was the first to appear by the sea.
Chu Jinchen came to the first wooden house, sat on a stool, and reached into the hole.
The camera zoomed in on Chu Jinchen’s hand.
In the close-up shot, Chu Jinchen’s hands were fair and slender. His slender knuckles were slightly curled, and his short fingernails looked healthy and clean.
The slightly bulging veins on the back of his hands and wrists were explosive, making people feel even more conquered.
[This hand!!! I love it!!!]
[I’m simply a hand obsessed fan.]
[It would be a pity not to touch this hand.]
Yu Zixi’s eyes lit up when she saw the rolled-up sleeves of his shirt.
Couture!
It was the person she had been longing for!
She was restless, but she had to suppress her excitement in front of the camera.
Then, Yu Zixi pinched the middle of the pen and placed it in Chu Jinchen’s hand.
When she retracted her hand, she even pretended to casually brush his fingertips across Chu Jinchen’s palm.
Under the camera, Chu Jinchen’s hand stroked the pen in his hand, his knuckles moving across the pen from time to time.
[It’s a pen! It’s a pen that’s been touched.]
[No dirty thoughts!!!]
[Just came in and he got tripped over by this sister’s pretentious act.]
[That’s a pretty easy guess for a pen, right?]
[Yu Zixi is smart. The pen is the easiest to guess.]
[These two have decided to form a team, right?]
When the touching time was over, Chu Jinchen put down the pen in his hand.
The camera cut to his face, which was even more delicate in close-up HD.
One could see his lips curve. “I guess what I just touched was…”
Yu Zixi’s heart pounded hard, and the excitement in her eyes was almost uncontrollable.
“A little wooden stick.”
Everyone was speechless.
