Even monkeys would call you uncle

With that bit of gossip over, everyone went back to following the program.

Picking up where she had left off, Xue Ruyin asked Xu Guanghao, "If you've been watching our livestream all along, who left the best impression on you?"

Xu Guanghao looked a little embarrassed, but eventually answered, "Zhizhi."

[Huh? Is he a fan of our Zhizhi?]

[Sure enough, no one can resist our adorable Zhizhi, but she only likes Chen Sinian!]

Xue Ruyin's face darkened.

An Ruzhi, the person in question: "???"

Stay away from me!

I'm not interested in overcooked noodles!

She hurriedly scooted to the side.

Su Tangtang was sitting there. Perhaps the nudge finally prompted her to speak: [Oh, so he's here to hook a rich woman. No wonder he was so eager to break up with his girlfriend.]

Xu Guanghao: "...?"

Doesn't everyone know she set me up?!

Why are you still taking her side!

Luckily, Su Tangtang couldn't hear his thoughts, or she would have torn him apart.

If he hadn't run his mouth and mocked that girl in front of so many people, would any of this have happened?

So what if she was a little fat? She wasn't eating his food!

Oh, sure, he was skinny. So skinny that even monkeys would call him uncle!

With the room suddenly falling silent and nobody speaking, the director couldn't help coughing and had someone keep writing on the whiteboard to prompt them to continue interacting.

Once Xue Ruyin learned that he had come for An Ruzhi, she had no intention of saying anything else.

Seeing that, the others had no choice but to speak up.

Fortunately, they only had to exchange a few awkward lines before a staff member called from outside, announcing that another new guest had arrived.

"This one should be a female guest, right?"

They headed outside while discussing it.

Once they reached the courtyard, they saw a woman stepping out of a minivan parked beyond the large iron gate. She wore a white spaghetti-strap dress, her long black hair softly curled, with matching lace-up heeled sandals on her feet and white flowers in her hands. She smiled gently at everyone. "Hello, everyone."

They greeted her and opened the iron gate.

Su Tangtang seemed to recognize her, but only vaguely. She couldn't recall who she was right away, only that she was an actress.

Qi Zhaoyi took her suitcase, and the group soon went inside.

When they reached the living room sofas, Chen Sinian had barely sat down before she went straight over and sat beside him.

Oh?

She's here for Chen Sinian?

You don't know yet, do you? He already has a young sponsor!

A man!

Although everyone knew, none of them let it show.

Time to enjoy the show. Hehehe.

Watching this unfold, Su Tangtang blinked. [Getting close to my sugar daddy? Should I step in?]

Huh???

What sugar daddy?

Everyone was puzzled.

The newly arrived female guest was puzzled too. Who's speaking?

While she was distracted, Chen Sinian quickly scooted away and signaled to Su Tangtang with his eyes.

[Sigh~]

[Money sure is hard to earn~]

Su Tangtang went over and sat between them.

The new female guest looked at her and immediately frowned.

[Our Brother Nian is so popular!]

[Could Chen Sinian and Su Tangtang actually like each other? That was so natural!]

[What's going on with An Ruzhi? Didn't she say she liked Chen Sinian? Why hasn't she interacted with him at all since today's stream started?]

The viewers discussed their own topics in the comments, while the guests discussed theirs on the livestream.

Seeing Su Tangtang sit between Chen Sinian and the new guest, they raised their eyebrows but said nothing, each finding somewhere to sit.

Qiao Yufan glanced at the whiteboard the director had someone holding up nearby and asked the new guest to greet the camera.

She raised her hand and waved. "Hello, everyone. I'm Zeng Xinwei, an actress. I played Consort Yu in The Legend of Qin Yi."

[Oh, it's her! I was wondering why she looked so familiar!]

[Now that you mention Consort Yu, I remember! The one with the really good acting!]

Zeng Xinwei was a professionally trained actress with both talent and looks, but her career had remained lukewarm all these years. Even though several of her roles had gained widespread attention, she still couldn't land a lead. Her agent always said she lacked a little luck and had already reached her ceiling.

She refused to believe that.

She had only decided to join the dating reality show after seeing that Chen Sinian was participating. This was an opportunity for her.

Everyone in the industry knew that Chen Sinian had access to excellent projects. Since his debut, he hadn't appeared in a single bad film!

She believed in herself. As long as she landed the female lead in a good film, she was sure she could become an overnight sensation!

Sitting between them made Su Tangtang extremely uncomfortable, but that couldn't stop her from enjoying the gossip!

After all, the woman was watching Chen Sinian, not her. She leaned back against the sofa, trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible, then searched the book for Zeng Xinwei's name.

[Uh... is this for real?]

Zeng Xinwei had just finished giving herself a mental pep talk and working out what to say to Chen Sinian when that abrupt voice rang out again.

Perhaps because they were so close, she heard it clearly. Her gaze landed directly on Su Tangtang beside her. Was she the one speaking?

Everyone else's eyes instantly lit up again. This woman had gossip too!

Su Tangtang, you're really delivering today!

We don't even have to ask, and you're already digging into their gossip!

Xu Guanghao also turned his gaze toward Zeng Xinwei. So this is what enjoying someone else's gossip feels like!

Under Zeng Xinwei's gaze, Su Tangtang's inner voice rang out again, louder than usual, probably because she was so shocked: [Her mom set her up on a blind date, but during the date, her mom and the guy fell for each other and eloped?!]

What???

What did you say???

The revelation was probably so shocking that nobody could process it for a moment.

Zeng Xinwei: "?!!"

Who the hell is talking?!

How do they even know about my family?!

Seeing that Su Tangtang hadn't opened her mouth, she instinctively ruled her out, then swept an unsettled gaze over everyone.

Eventually, Xu Yuntong couldn't stand watching anymore. She stood, went over, and whispered something in her ear.

Then Su Tangtang noticed her gaze falling on her.

[Hmm? What's wrong?]

She looked up at her.

The woman was still frozen in place after hearing Xu Yuntong's explanation.

When she got no response, Su Tangtang looked at Xu Yuntong instead.

Xu Yuntong smiled and shook her head at her.

[Something feels off.]

Su Tangtang raised a hand and scratched her head. [Were they talking about me just now?]

[Is Zeng Xinwei mad because I'm sitting here? But that's not my fault! If she wants to blame someone, blame that scumbag Chen Sinian! He already has a young sponsor, yet he's still spreading his charm everywhere, seducing pretty girls!]

Chen Sinian: "..."

I'm your sugar daddy when I'm paying you, but the moment there's work to do, I'm a scumbag, huh?

Zeng Xinwei: "?!!"
