About ten minutes later, everyone gradually came out of the house.
He Pijiu brought up last week's task and asked Su Tangtang and Chen Sinian to come with him to a room to arrange everyone's partners for their second date tomorrow.
Su Tangtang, who hadn't even had a chance to sit down yet, turned around and left with him.
Chen Sinian stood up and followed.
The three entered the room, closed the door, and sat facing one another.
"Since the three new guests today didn't take part in last week's task, you don't have the right to assign them partners. No objections to that, right?" He Pijiu said.
The two exchanged a glance and nodded.
He Pijiu handed them the cards he was holding. "Just like last week, there are four locations. You can assign the guests who joined at the same time as you. The remaining three guests will decide where to go themselves."
Su Tangtang remembered Liao Xuliang and asked what they should do about him.
He was probably still at the hospital with his father. They couldn't bring him back, but they still had to stop the bleeding!
He Pijiu glanced at her with a complicated look, then sighed. "He probably won't be coming back. Just arrange things for the remaining guests."
"Oh."
A few minutes later, once the two had finished, He Pijiu asked Chen Sinian to leave first, saying he had something to discuss with Su Tangtang.
Su Tangtang was startled. "!"
This damn Beer guy isn't planning to do something to me, is he?
Does he have no self-awareness? With that face and body, plus his age, divorced with two kids, how could he possibly deserve a gorgeous woman like me!
He Pijiu: "..."
What on earth made you think I was going to do anything to you?!
I really do have something to discuss with you!
Didn't you say I had bad taste? Well, today I'll let you choose!
He had forgotten that Su Tangtang's inner voice carried quite far and could even be heard by people standing close to the room outside. He stopped worrying about Chen Sinian and picked up the tablet beside him. "Here's the situation."
"For personal reasons, Chen Sinian will be leaving after we finish filming this week. That'll leave us one male guest short, so we'll have to find a replacement. I have a few candidates here. Help me take a look."
He Pijiu unlocked the tablet and held it out to Su Tangtang.
Su Tangtang: "?"
She looked up. "Is this also a reward for the last task?"
Otherwise, why would he ask her to help choose? She knew her limits. Even if she knew she was beautiful, that didn't give her this kind of authority.
She had already found him a perfectly good excuse, so why wouldn't He Pijiu use it? He quickly agreed. "Ah, yes! A reward for the last task. Since Chen Sinian won't be coming back next episode, I figured this didn't really concern him, so I asked him to leave first."
Su Tangtang was skeptical, but seeing that her bestie Chen Sinian was still sitting there, she picked up the tablet and shifted a little closer to him.
Chen Sinian: "..."
Although her inner voice hadn't sounded this time, Chen Sinian didn't need to think to know what she meant. The corners of his lips twitched involuntarily.
She first looked at the first photo, which had the man's name beside it. Yue Chengkai?
Su Tangtang searched through the book. Holy crap! How wild! He was having fun with a hookup and ended up in the hospital?
He Pijiu: "...?"
It's fine. I'm not panicking at all. There are still three more!
I refuse to believe none of them are decent!
Let me see how they ended up in the hospital. Hehehe~
Her voice grew increasingly excited. Huh? The condom slipped off and got stuck inside?
Wait, how could it slip off? I've never tried it, but I know how businesses work! Why would they sell something that slips off? Wouldn't that just ruin their reputa-huh? Because it was too short and small?
Hahahahaha, seriously? He bought the smallest size and it still didn't fit, hahahahahaha! If his didn't slip off, whose would!
Buddy, if you can't manage it, maybe just stop? Do you absolutely have to hook up? This wasn't even the first time? It's happened loads of times? I'm dying!!!
He Pijiu and Chen Sinian: "..."
Everyone standing close to the room outside: "..."
The corners of everyone's mouths twitched involuntarily.
Some even made a point of looking at Gu Yeting to see whether he could hear Su Tangtang's thoughts. She couldn't look up information on him, so surely it would be perfectly normal if he couldn't hear her thoughts either, right?
But they discovered they'd been overthinking it.
Gu Yeting could hear her, and his lips unconsciously curved into a faint smile too.
Everyone still couldn't understand. Seriously, why does he get to?!!
We object!!!
Inside the room, Yue Chengkai was ruled out. He Pijiu pointed to the second candidate. "Take a look. What do you think of this one?"
Su Tangtang lowered her eyes, following his finger, and glanced at the man's name. Shi Guifan?
Isn't he that cat abuser?
He Pijiu: "..."
It's fine, it's fine. I still have two more!
I refuse to believe neither of those two is decent!
Oh my god, what kind of sick fixation is this?! Whenever he sees a male cat, whether it has an owner or not, he takes it to be neutered, then brings it home and abuses it! Dozens of male cats have already suffered at his hands!
Fuck! Fuck your *****!
Everyone gathered close to the room outside loved cats. When Xu Yuntong had said she owned three cats, Qi Zhaoyi had been the only person besides Su Tangtang to lower a finger.
Now almost all of them were furious.
Some couldn't hold back and began swearing under their breath.
[What's going on? Who is Qiao Yufan cursing at?]
[No idea. I keep getting the feeling he's about to murder someone /facepalm/]
[I don't know if you've noticed, but everyone seems to look pretty upset.]
[Why have Chen Sinian and Su Tangtang been in there so long? They still haven't come out?]
Chen Sinian and the director were sitting in silence.
As for Su Tangtang, she was still flipping through her book. There has to be a reason for such a bizarre fixation, right?
Holy shit! His college roommate actually raped him while he was drunk and unconscious?!
The next day, the pain in his ass woke him up. He thought it was hemorrhoids and rushed to the hospital. Even the doctor was shocked after examining him and kept asking, both directly and indirectly, whether he had any unusual sexual preferences. Only after talking it through did he realize his roommate had most likely raped him.
He called to ask, and his roommate actually admitted it outright?! Admitted it??? He even said he'd liked him for ages and asked him to accept him?
Fuck, if I were him, I'd have hauled that bastard into court!
Oh, wow! That roommate is actually Wang Chengyu, the guy in the third photo???
Double kill!
He Pijiu: "..." He went numb all over again.
He raised a hand to his forehead, barely wanting to look at the last candidate anymore.
But Su Tangtang's inner voice hadn't stopped. He admitted it so readily. Could he be a repeat offender?
