#A Despicable, Dark Man#

Chu Xiyue:?

She took a moment to process what the system had said.

Fuck!

Chu Xiyue cursed inwardly.

#A Despicable, Dark Man#

Chu Xiyue could not help asking, "Does Miao Qingran know about this?"

If Miao Qingran knew and still stayed with Wei Shaolin, then Chu Xiyue would respect her choice and wish them well. But if Miao Qingran did not know...

[Miao Qingran did not know. She had always thought that she got diarrhea during the college entrance exams because she ate something unclean. She believed she was simply unlucky, which was why she failed to get into her dream school.]

"Damn it, that bastard!" The more Chu Xiyue thought about it, the angrier she became.

[That was not all. During her sophomore year, Miao Qingran wanted to run for student union president, but Wei Shaolin secretly sabotaged her. During her junior year, Miao Qingran secured an exchange-student spot at a top overseas university, but Wei Shaolin anonymously reported to the school that Miao Qingran had improper conduct, and her exchange-student slot was revoked.]

[During her senior year, Miao Qingran decided to apply for graduate school at Tsinghua. Wei Shaolin drove her to the interview, but deliberately got into a car accident on the way, causing Miao Qingran to miss the interview and lose her admission.]

Damn it! My fists are clenched!

Chu Xiyue looked at Miao Qingran and Wei Shaolin, who appeared perfectly matched.

If the system had not told her, she never would have realized that Wei Shaolin, a man who looked so humble and polite and seemed to obey his girlfriend's every word, was actually so selfish and despicable.

Miao Qingran probably never dreamed that she had not missed out on her ideal schools twice because of bad luck. In truth, all her misfortunes had come from the jealousy of a despicable, dark man—and that man was the person she trusted most.

"Hello, Teacher Chu." Miao Qingran greeted Chu Xiyue. She had a sweet appearance, and when she smiled, her eyes curved like little crescent moons, making her especially endearing.

"Hello," Chu Xiyue said with a smile.

She merely gave Wei Shaolin a cold nod before turning and heading back to her room.

Wei Shaolin watched Chu Xiyue's retreating figure, a slight furrow forming between his brows.

"What's wrong, A-Lin?" Miao Qingran noticed something off about Wei Shaolin and asked with concern.

"Nothing." Wei Shaolin withdrew his gaze. "I just feel like Teacher Chu doesn't seem to like me."

"Then you must be imagining it," Miao Qingran said with certainty. "Teacher Chu is so beautiful. She looks like such a gentle girl—how could she possibly dislike you?"

Wei Shaolin:?

What did those two things have to do with each other?

Miao Qingran seemed to realize that as well. She cleared her throat and said, "If you think Teacher Chu doesn't like you, sometimes you should consider your own reasons too. Maybe there's something you haven't done well enough?"

Wei Shaolin:...

The system vividly relayed the conversation in the living room to Chu Xiyue.

Chu Xiyue felt that Miao Qingran truly was a hidden gem of a girl with a discerning eye. This only strengthened her resolve to let Miao Qingran learn the truth. Such a wonderful girl should not be tied down by this kind of trash!

However, if she rashly told Miao Qingran that Wei Shaolin was a bad person without any evidence, Miao Qingran probably would not believe her. She needed to find a way to make Miao Qingran see Wei Shaolin's true colors.

While Chu Xiyue was in her room thinking of a plan, news of He Jinyuan and Xu Wenchong getting into a violent fight on the show shot to the top of the trending searches!

Stories of wives confronting mistresses were common every year, but explosive news of a wife and mistress—both well-known figures—fighting on a dating show was rare indeed!

The video of He Jinyuan and Xu Wenchong fighting spread widely online. Countless netizens joined in to watch the drama. It was even livelier than when paparazzi exposed some top celebrity secretly meeting his girlfriend, and Weibo's servers nearly crashed from the traffic.

The dating show The One She Loves Most had undoubtedly gone viral. But it was not because the show was especially sweet or because its iconic scenes had gone viral—it was because everyone wanted to see Wan Zhen openly build a bridge while secretly crossing a river, with the wife and mistress gathered together!

Thrilling! It was truly too thrilling! You could not see such openly dramatic scenes on any other variety show!

The netizens could not help pulling out yesterday's video of the wife confronting the mistress and rewatching it from beginning to end.

But as they watched, someone suddenly spotted a blind spot!

[Why does that person hiding in the corner, peeking out with half her head and an excited expression while watching the drama, look so familiar?]

[Chu Xiyue's expression while watching the drama is basically me.]

[Everyone! Look carefully at the morning's recorded footage! I suspect Chu Xiyue may have known about Wan Zhen and He Jinyuan's affair long ago! She looked at He Jinyuan and Wan Zhen seven or eight times that morning. Don't think I didn't see her just because she hid in the corner—her expression was exactly the same as mine when I'm watching drama!]

[That's right. When Xu Wenchong suddenly attacked He Jinyuan, she was the only one who did not look surprised at all. It was like she had known something all along!]

[Everyone, I rewatched every scene from yesterday where those three appeared together. I found that whenever those three were in the same shot, Chu Xiyue was there too. Several times when Wan Zhen and He Jinyuan interacted, she would subconsciously glance at Xu Wenchong! That look of watching a show was impossible to hide! I study microexpressions and behavioral analysis, and I guarantee that Chu Xiyue absolutely knew about Wan Zhen and He Jinyuan's affair!]

Someone simply went to Chu Xiyue's Weibo to ask whether she had known about Wan Zhen and He Jinyuan all along. However, Chu Xiyue did not have a phone, so naturally she could not answer their questions.

That afternoon, the production team announced that He Jinyuan, Wan Zhen, and Xu Wenchong would be withdrawing from the show.

@The One She Loves Most V: @Wan Zhen and @Xu Wenchong will temporarily withdraw from filming due to personal reasons. @He Jinyuan will not continue with the remaining recordings due to health issues...

[Let me translate for everyone: Xu Wenchong discovered Wan Zhen's affair, and the two are probably getting divorced, so they withdrew from this dating show. He Jinyuan was probably beaten into the hospital by Xu Wenchong, so he can't continue filming either.]

[I never expected He Jinyuan, that young man who looked so strong and healthy, to be unable to beat even middle-aged Xu Wenchong. Tsk, tsk, tsk. What a disappointment!]
