"The first round is over, and the second round is about to begin! Guests, please get ready!"
[Waiting for Chi Yining to embarrass himself!]
[I'm already embarrassed for him!]
[Can you stop going on about Chi Yining? You're blocking my view of the hot guys!]
[True, true. Why talk about him? What a downer.]
"Next! Group 9!"
Chi Yining stepped forward and picked up a blue recurve bow.
His gaze was aloof and calm as he shot, his jet-black wolf cut resting against the back of his neck. He was so handsome that people couldn't help silently marveling.
No one had much hope for him. They merely watched casually.
Whoosh!
A black arrow struck the bull's-eye! It seemed to occupy the very same spot as Yan Guiyun's earlier arrow!
"Beautiful!" Wang Xinyang clapped without a care. He had known Chi Yining was no ordinary man! What his dad had taught him really was right!
After putting down the bow, Chi Yining returned to Yan Guiyun's side. Yan Guiyun held out a fist toward him. Oh, was this a congratulatory fist bump between guys?
Chi Yining unconsciously clenched his hand into a fist, raised it, and gently bumped it against his. It was his first time experiencing this feeling, and it was quite novel.
A few of the guests still applauded him, and the host clapped with wide eyes.
The director sat on the sidelines watching and took another deep drag on his cigarette. He didn't quite understand this world, nor did he quite understand Chi Yining!
So had Chi Yining been doing performance art before? A perfectly decent guy, yet he insisted on getting up to all that nonsense! Could his agency have forced him? It didn't look like it! It felt like this agency couldn't even keep Chi Yining in line! Every time I see Ma Ling, she's sighing...
"The third round has begun! Let's welcome the contestants from Group 5 back onto the field!"
Chi Yining looked at the bald host. To be honest, his hosting was a little awkward. They would probably have to rely entirely on editing and postproduction to make a full episode look presentable when it aired! Heh~
Chi Yining was staring blankly at the distant targets until another cry of "Beautiful, another ten!" nearly startled him.
If I remember correctly, this is a dating show, right? Where did all these kings of the grind come from?
He glanced over at the contestant who had scored a ten: Shao Chongsi from Group 5. He remembered that the man was a lawyer. It wasn't that he had made a point of remembering; his brain was just good. What could he do~?
The contestant sent out by Group 6 was Gu Chengyuan: nine points!
Chi Yining: "..."
Ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous! How was this Love Competition? This was clearly a talent competition, okay?
Another round of applause rang out at the venue.
He remained expressionless and didn't clap. He would get cursed at whether he clapped or not anyway.
He might as well lie flat.
The livestream chat started arguing again.
[The world is getting kind of surreal. Chi Yining didn't even look at Film Emperor Gu as long as he looked at Yan Guiyun beside him.]
[I know Film Emperor Gu has a lot of fans, but I'll still say this quietly: on this dating show, his looks are only average...]
[The person above must be a paid troll hired by Film Emperor Gu's rival, right? What a joke. Film Emperor Gu is the hottest in my heart!]
[Heh... he's really nothing special!]
[So we're not even allowed to say it? Does the whole world belong to your Film Emperor Gu?]
[Exactly, exactly. I'm sick to death of seeing this Gu guy on my feed every day. He's hogging public resources so we can't see any other stars.]
[Finally, someone who gets it~]
[What does this have to do with Film Emperor Gu?! Isn't this all Chi Yining's fault?!]
[Oh, but your fave hasn't said a single word this whole time.]
The director watched the livestream chat erupt into arguments again. It really was a world of ice and fire. Oh well, as long as it doesn't cross into anything illegal or anything bad, the more they argue, the livelier it gets! Heh~
