Director: "Next, we'll start one by one, from left to right. Our first guest is Duan Yueyang. Please invite the guest you'd like to get to know into our ' Heart-Fluttering Cottage '."

Duan Yueyang put down the skewers in his hand, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and slowly stood up under everyone's gaze. He took a rose from the table, walked to Jiang Ye who was sitting in the center, handed him the rose, and turned to walk into the small house.

Jiang Ye straightened his glasses, held the rose in his hand, and followed the other person away.

Watching the two figures leave, the production team immediately unfolded the screen and projected the live broadcast of the Heart-Fluttering Cottage.

The entire cabin was beautifully designed, with roses climbing all around, two rows of fruit wines on a white wooden table carved with roses, and two small screens behind two chairs. Everyone was a little bewildered.

Zhang Shengsheng asked curiously, "What's the meaning of that screen? And why is there alcohol on it?"

Jiang Yu ate the grapes Yun Li handed her and put them in her mouth, saying, "It's only exciting with alcohol."

Wen He stared at the small wine glass on the screen, her heart filled with apprehension...

He didn't want to drink...

Ji Chi leaned closer to him and whispered, "I'll get you drunk later."

Wen He angrily elbowed him, which landed squarely on Ji Chi's chest.

Ji Chi clutched his chest, looking pained, and buried his head in Wen He's shoulder, feigning pain by softly groaning, "Ouch... it hurts so much~ Ouch..."

Wen He ignored him; he hadn't used any force at all, Ji Chi was just pretending.

Duan Yueyang sat down in the chair, picked up the card on the table, and began to read it aloud softly.

" The No Heart-Fluttering Challenge ' requires each guest to wear a heart rate monitor, and the screen behind them will display their heart rate."

After a brief examination, Jiang Ye put it on his wrist. The moment he put it on, a heart shape appeared on the screen behind him, followed by a series of fluctuating numbers, around 72...

Duan Yueyang glanced at it quickly before looking away. He hurriedly tidied up the instruments in his hands, and Jiang Ye stepped forward to help him.

A heart-fluttering score of 96.

"Wow, that's high!" Zhang Shengsheng stopped eating his skewers and stared at the big screen, trying to catch a glimpse of the drama unfolding.

After putting on the equipment, Duan Yueyang continued reading the remaining content, "Each guest will ask each other ten questions, and the other person must answer any question. If they refuse to answer, they must drink a glass of wine."

Duan Yueyang picked up the glass of wine in front of him and took a light sniff. The aroma wasn't too strong, so it shouldn't be particularly potent.

"Shall I start?" Duan Yueyang put down his wine and politely asked the other person.

Jiang Ye nodded, indicating that the other party could begin asking questions.

" Jiang Ye... do you have someone you like at the cabin?"

[Wow! This is exciting right from the start?!]

[Ahhh! This is the kind of iconic scene a dating reality show should have!]

[I'm so excited! One question, and both of our heart rates are starting to rise!]

Wow...!

The onlookers were all surprised by the other party's initiative and boldness...

Wen He watched the rising heart rates of the two people on the screen, scratched his head, and took a bite of the savory beef skewer...

He was actually quite curious whether Lawyer Jiang had someone she liked.

Jiang Ye steadied himself, and a fleeting image flashed through his mind: a few days ago at the aquarium, when Wen He had put the little jellyfish hat on his head. He remembered how Wen He had smiled so innocently and adorably.

A smile appeared in Jiang Ye's eyes, and he nodded gently. "Yes, there is someone I like."

Duan Yueyang nodded, sitting up straight again. He knew...

"It's your turn to ask me..."

Jiang Ye thought for a moment... Actually, he didn't have anything he wanted to ask the other person, but since they chose him... was it because they were interested in him?

"And you? Do you have someone you like?" Jiang Ye asked the other person in return.

"I wouldn't say I like you, but I'm very interested in you," Duan Yueyang said simply and directly, expressing her feelings without embarrassing Jiang Ye.

" Yangyang likes Lawyer Jiang?" Wen He was clearly puzzled... He remembered that Yangyang didn't seem to have much contact with Lawyer Jiang...

"It's none of our business. Eat some vegetables and don't get a sore throat." Ji Chi wasn't very interested in what the two of them were saying. He was now certain that no one could take his lover away from him.

Two consecutive probing questions excited the guests, and with this good start, everyone knew what to ask next.

" Jiang Ye, would you be attracted to me?" Duan Yueyang gripped his wine glass tightly. After asking the question, he quickly lowered his eyes, avoiding direct eye contact.

Jiang Ye looked at the other person's face, sighed softly, picked up the wine glass on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Okay... I understand." No answer was the best answer. Duan Yueyang swallowed the wine in his glass with bitterness in his heart.

The guests sat at the table, their initial excitement vanishing without a trace.

Wen He turned her head away from Ji Chi's mischievous hands.

"One last question... Will we have a chance to meet again after the show ends?"

"Meeting"

The conversation between the two ended with a single, brief word.

Wen He sat at the table, still somewhat dazed, the tips of her ears, hidden among her dark hair, slightly flushed.

Just now... just now, did Ji Chi act like a pervert...?

As expected, Ji Chi is no good person!

The next person was Wei Xun. He stood up, his gaze wandering before finally settling on Zhang Shengsheng's face. He then handed him the rose in his hand.

Zhang Shengsheng looked at the roses offered by the other person with some surprise... In fact, he had thought that the other person might give them to Xiao Yu, but not to himself.

Because he knew that the relationship between the two of them was gradually drifting apart.

The two entered the Heart-Fluttering Cottage in an awkward atmosphere, and when Wei Xun asked the first question, an awkward silence filled the air.

Zhang Shengsheng gave a casual and brief reply... He didn't want any further involvement with the other party right now...

When faced with a question he didn't want to answer, Zhang Shengsheng would drink the wine in his glass. Wei Xun could see the other's resistance, but he respected the other's choice.

If they didn't choose him in the first place, and stayed away from him... then he wouldn't give them another chance.

Zhang Shengsheng clutched the rose in her hand and jogged out of the house toward the backyard.

Next was Zhou Siyu, who decisively chose Xie Zhengci; the two shared an unspoken understanding.

The guests ate and watched simultaneously, thoroughly enjoying their meal.
