In Episode 25, Lu Chen ate breakfast alone in the kitchen, silently facing away from the camera. He looked lonely and desolate, forming a stark contrast with the sweet scenes being filmed in the other split-screen livestream rooms.

The comments began condemning them, and public opinion only grew more heated.

Thus, the moment the irritated Fu Zhouchi returned to his room, he received a call from his secretary. "President Fu, your online reputation has taken a sharp downturn. If it isn't repaired promptly, it could affect the company."

A professional, responsible voice came through the phone receiver.

Fu Zhouchi irritably rubbed the space between his brows. "Release Yan Group's scandal first. Divert their attention."

After two seconds of silence, he added, "Fine, Assistant Vice President."

He did not hang up immediately. After hesitating for a moment, the secretary asked again, "About today's date with Lu Chen—"

Fu Zhouchi's voice was cold. "I don't need your reminder. I know what to do."

He cut off the call, entered the bathroom, and quickly took a shower. Amid the misty vapor, a faint flush rose on his refined, jade-like face, and his eyes were slightly unfocused.

In the mirror across from him, he seemed to vaguely see a pair of long, pale legs and that beautiful face, three parts cool detachment and seven parts mockery.

A few seconds later, he came back to his senses. Embarrassed and annoyed, he raised a hand and wiped the moisture from the jade bottle, cursing under his breath, "Damn it!"

What the hell am I thinking?

Downstairs in the kitchen, Lu Chen slowly drank his milk. Just as he swallowed the last mouthful, a deep, magnetic voice sounded behind him.

"Ready to see whether I learned it?"

Lu Cheng froze and instinctively turned around. The instant he saw Fu Zhouchi's extraordinarily handsome face, his heartbeat abruptly sped up.

"Because I take my first time with you very seriously..." He deliberately paused for two seconds, then curled his lips into a faint smile.

"A date?"

"So I went back to Lou City and got myself ready again."

The scent of expensive perfume drifted over. Lu Chen's cheeks reddened slightly. "I thought Song Yichuan had charmed you."

He did not say the latter half aloud, merely changing the subject. "Thank you for breakfast."

Seeing the two interact, the livestream viewers finally stopped rolling their eyes and reluctantly accepted the belated sweetness. Though this sugar seemed to come with a taste of additives, at least it showed some sincerity.

Let's keep watching Fu Zhouchi's performance. I'm not ready to remove his scumbag label yet.

Hey, aren't you guys being a little hypocritical?

Song Yichuan chose Fu Zhouchi twice, but sent his third heartbeat text to Yan Jinyu. Why don't you call him fickle?

How is that the same?

Clearly, Brother Yu's persistence moved our Chuanbao.

The commenter above is right. Chuanbao clearly picked someone at random only because he hadn't completed his mission. Besides, Fu Zhouchi was always useless. Wasn't Brother Yu the one who stepped in every time? Chuanbao and Brother Yu obviously deepened their relationship while competing in the Magic Box. Changing his choice was only natural, the inevitable result, okay?

The loving breakfast segment was nearing its end when the other two pairs finally arrived late.

The four of them lazily sat down on the sofa, showing no intention of doing anything further.

A staff member could not help reminding them, "Would you like to make a delicious breakfast for your heartbeat guest?"

"Tch!"

Huo Renjie gave a lifeless sneer. "Forget it. I'm afraid I'll get poisoned."

"Where's your face?"

Meng Qiongqi shot him a sidelong glare. "Who said I was making breakfast for you?"

The cameraman: ...

Ai, love, hate, and tangled feelings were hard to film. Better turn to the other pair.

So the camera shifted to the other side.

The mature Chen Qiwei did not even raise her head, her fingers rapidly swiping across her tablet as she handled work.

"Not eating breakfast?"

The sweet-looking Yu Jiajia lifted her face. There were dark circles beneath her eyes, so pronounced that even foundation could not conceal them.

"I stayed up late last night, so I have no appetite. Stop shoving the camera in my face. I think this dating show should just change its name—call it The Young Lady and Young Master's Daily Outbursts."

The atmosphere in the living room was deeply discordant. Without the King of Gossip around, the wealthy heirs could not even be bothered to restrain their tempers.

Just as they were about to slack off through their date, they heard the inner voice they had been awaiting all night.

"Hm?"

Yu Jiajia didn't leave the show?

Something so huge happened at home, and he doesn't plan to go back and take a look?

Could it be that he's already completely confident he can handle that gold-digger?

The four people sprawled across the sofa abruptly raised their heads and looked toward the stairs, their eyes gleaming with hungry anticipation like flies spotting a cracked egg.

The director did not know whether that description was particularly apt, but seeing the perfectly synchronized scene through the monitor, that was the sentence that popped into his mind.

Song Yichuan's gaze fell on Yu Jiajia's dark circles, and he silently sighed. Sigh, being the newly acknowledged biological granddaughter isn't easy either. She even has to help Grandpa deal with his girlfriend.

Come to think of it, the wealthy circle is really fucking chaotic!

I remember that rich mutt's mom also...

Pfft!

In the corner of the kitchen, Fu Zhouchi, who had been drinking water, unexpectedly choked and sprayed water everywhere from his nose and mouth.

Song Yichuan glanced over. "Ew, disgusting."

Fu Zhouchi: ...

Ignoring Lu Chen's concerned questions, he hurried out of the villa. Once he found an angle the cameras could not capture, he pulled out his phone.

The call was answered quickly.

"Find out when I had contact with Song Yichuan and when I offended him. Give me the results in ten minutes."

The seaside date activities were provided by the production team and decided by drawing lots. Song Yichuan stepped up without hesitation, drew first, opened the slip of paper, and read it aloud.

"Two-person ocean surfing."

He turned toward Yan Jinyu.

"Ah, do you know how?"

"A little."

Yan Jinyu pressed his lips into a faint smile. "Song Yichuan, it's fine. If you're not skilled, I'll teach you."

Lu Chen saw his confident demeanor and immediately sneered inwardly. Surfing is a game for rich people, yet you actually have the nerve to say you'll teach someone? Isn't that just pretending to be something you're not?

Yan Jinyu is pretty hypocritical too. Didn't the trending searches reveal not long ago that he got a surfing certification?

Now, just to please someone else, he's willing to play dumb. So the Jade-faced Yama of the business world is nothing special after all.

Thinking this, Lu Chen quickly stepped forward.

"Then I'll draw one too."

He opened the slip and read it aloud.

"Two-person self-drive speedboat tour?"

Lu Chen turned his head, revealing an awkward expression. "Chi-ge, do you know how?"

He understood a thing or two about manipulating men's little thoughts. Showing a little weakness at the right time could stir up their protective instincts, and it was especially effective on a second-generation tycoon like Fu Zhouchi.

Sure enough, a hint of indulgence flashed across that refined, jade-like face.

"Of course. I'll take you there when the time comes!"

It was as though he had deliberately repeated those words to irritate someone.

Fu Zhouchi swept a sidelong glance at Song Yichuan. The latter seemed unaware, but his inner voice sounded the next second.

Fuck, that rich mutt is so shameless. He actually pulled this trick behind everyone's backs!

Fu Zhouchi, I'm fucking done with you again!

I'm fucking done with you again!
