“Then let’s start now,” the host said. “First of all, everyone will draw lots to determine the order of play.”
Ji Yuxiao looked down at Lin Luoqing. “You draw it.”
Lin Luoqing wasn’t shy. He reached out and drew a wooden stick from the host’s hand. “Number 3.”
“Very good.” Ji Yuxiao nodded. “It is just in the middle.”
Lin Luoqing also felt it was good. He pulled Ji Yuxiao to sit down on the bench, ready to see what level the other couples were at and whether they could win.
“Do you think we can win?”
“We probably can,” Ji Yuxiao guessed.
“Why?”
“You are so smart. You can definitely win,” Ji Yuxiao looked at him with a smile.
Lin Luoqing listened to his words and laughed happily. He felt that this person could really speak.
The netizens watching the live broadcast also had an aunt’s smile that hadn’t disappeared from their faces for the past two days. [It is so sweet. Chairman Ji is really good at sweet talk.]
[Chairman Ji: Is there anyone who hasn’t eaten breakfast with low blood sugar? I have sugar here. You are welcome.]
[Thank you, Chairman Ji. I already feel much better. Please continue to give out sugar!]
This time, the one who drew number one was the young couple, Yang Xinyue and Li Zhiyuan. The two of them discussed it and decided that Yang Xinyue would draw first.
She looked at the idioms on the staff’s board, scratched her head, looked down and started to draw on the whiteboard.
Once she finished drawing, she raised the whiteboard and showed it to Li Zhiyuan. Li Zhiyuan looked confused.
“A stormy sea?” He asked.
Yang Xinyue shook her head. “No.”
“Turned upside down.”
“Not really. It is far away. The previous one was closer.”
“Previous one?” Li Zhiyuan was a bit worried. “Rough waves?”
Yang Xinyue still shook her head. “Think again, think again.”
“…What else could it be? An endless flow?”
“Wrong.”
“Or let’s pass,” Li Zhiyuan suggested.
Yang Xinyue was simply furious. “It is big wind and waves! Can’t you see such an obvious wind?”
“Is that wind?” Li Zhiyuan was surprised. “I thought it was the character ‘Chuan (川)’.”
The barrage laughed and Lin Luoqing also couldn’t help laughing.
Yang Xinyue huffed while watching the staff member raise the second idiom. She lowered her head to start drawing again.
After one round, the two people had guessed a total of six idioms correctly. The host encouraged them, “Not bad, not bad. It is very good.”
Yang Xinyue snorted at Li Zhiyuan. He touched her head with a smile and coaxed her with a good temper.
The second group to play the game was Li Jiamao and Cai Shiyu.
Cai Shiyu’s fans immediately filled the barrage. [Cai Cai has drawing skills. He will definitely draw well.]
[That’s right. It isn’t fair to everyone, but Cai Cai’s group should win. Hahaha.]
[That is no way. Cai Cai’s drawings are so beautiful. He deserves to win.]
[Yes, it is simply unreasonable if Cai Cai doesn’t win.]
At this time, the guests were gathered together and several live broadcast rooms had merged into one. Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao’s CP fans saw this and weren’t very satisfied. [This isn’t necessarily the case. Ji Yuxiao has always been leading in the games, right? Maybe it is the same this time.]
[Lin Luoqing is very powerful, but everyone knows Lin Luoqing’s drawing level. So… it isn’t impossible to be overtaken this time?]
[Yes, it would be fine if Ji Yuxiao was alone, but it is two people this time. Lin Luoqing is very bad at this. It is normal to lose.]
Lin Luoqing’s pure fans didn’t like to hear these words!
After all, their brother was a top celebrity. He didn’t dislike other people, but someone actually disliked their brother first? What was this?
The fans instantly turned on the mics. [Does Luoqing’s drawing have anything to do with you? It was first in the whole art selection process!]
[I remember that Luoqing and Chairman Ji were the only ones who chose correctly the first time the warrior chose the drawing. There was no need to choose a second time, right? It can be seen that Luoqing’s painting is very expressive. This is why Chairman Ji could choose the right one at once.]
[Hehe, some people boast so much about how well their brother draws. When choosing the drawing at that time, why did their CP have to choose three times before choosing it correctly? Isn’t it because the drawing isn’t similar enough?]
[No no no no, do you really think this is a competition of drawing skills? Why don’t you go to a drawing variety show if you are so good? Isn’t it more about the couple’s tacit understanding? This still needs to be said?]
[Hahaha, I suddenly remembered last night’s cooking session. Some CPs almost got into a fight. just this and they still think they can win? How strong is their self-confidence?]
Cai Shiyu’s fans wanted to fight back at first. However, there were too many fans of Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao. They didn’t give Cai Shiyu’s fans an opportunity to speak, nor did they give others a chance to speak. After a while, only the praises of Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao remained on the barrage.
Li Jiamao’s fans were simply speechless. In terms of celebrity status, Lin Luoqing overwhelmed all the guests. Just from the number of fans alone, Lin Luoqing completely crushed them. This show was so popular the moment it started recording without being aired. Wasn’t it relying on Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao?
It was like this but Cai Shiyu’s fans had to argue with others. It was simply rushing to recruit sunspots and implicating their brother.
They quickly expressed their attitude. They said that they also felt that Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao had a very tacit understanding and this link was suitable for them.
Lin Luoqing’s fans also didn’t want to quarrel with Cai Shiyu’s fans and give Cai Shiyu more attention.
So after winning the battle, they stopped talking and continued to watch the live broadcast quietly.
Cai Shiyu’s fans lost this barrage battle and were dissatisfied. They secretly gritted their teeth. ‘Just wait. After a while, Cai Cai will start drawing and you will know what the gap is. A poor drawing is a poor drawing. Last time was a mistake. How can it be so easy this time?’
This time, they would definitely win!
Cai Shiyu also thought so. Of course, he had more ideas than his fans. He wanted to take this opportunity to show off his drawing skills.
To set up his character, he had to strengthen it so as to leave an impression on the audience. Cai Shiyu had prepared a rich and full character setting for this variety show. He was just waiting for a chance to perform repeatedly on the show. Now was the time.
“I’ll draw first,” Cai Shiyu said.
Li Jiamao didn’t care about this and agreed. “Okay.”
He sat down on the chair with his back to the board.
Cai Shiyu looked at it and saw a staff holding up a sign that read: [Lying on the ice and begging for carp.]
Cai Shiyu lowered his head and started to draw.
Li Jiamao waited a while. He saw that Cai Shiyu still didn’t lift the whiteboard and urged him, “Isn’t it okay?”
“Wait.” Cai Shiyu was still busy drawing the person lying on ice.
He only had a black marker in his hand and there was no way to draw it very delicately. Even so, Cai Shiyu was very patient with this design. The person lying on the ice not only had facial features, but also a hairstyle and clothes.
Li Jiamao couldn’t wait for him and urged him again, “Isn’t it okay?”
“Wait a minute.” Cai Shiyu was a bit dissatisfied.
Li Jiamao was also dissatisfied.
He and Cai Shiyu weren’t a so-called couple at all. They were purely taking advantage of the hype.
‘Let’s Fall in Love Together’ had signed Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao and were worried that these two people would feel awkward being the only same-sex couple on the show. They wanted to find another same-sex couple. The companies of Li Jiamao and Cai Shiyu got the news and decisively asked them to pretend to be a couple. Then they contacted the program team to participate in the recording of the show.
It was a pity that the two of them didn’t get along with each other. They were even a bit annoyed.
Li Jiamao felt that Cai Shiyu was forceful, troublesome and hypocritical. He clearly knew that he was on the show to gain popularity from Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao, but he also wanted to step on the opponent and use the opponent to get the upper hand.
Cai Shiyu thought that Li Jiamao was brainless, had a violent temper and didn’t know how to seize opportunities. How many times could they cooperate with a top celebrity in their lives?
It was naturally necessary to fully prepare for this rare cooperation and use the flow of the top celebrity. It was best to take advantage of this popularity to create an impression of ‘I watched this show for Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao, but I prefer the pair of Cai Shiyu and Li Jiamao.’ This was the real value of the recording!
It was a pity that Li Jiamao didn’t appreciate it and didn’t cooperate. Therefore, Cai Shiyu decided to fly solo. He didn’t care about whether Li Jiamao would use this show to gain more popularity or not.
Li Jiamao’s fans saw that Cai Shiyu was slow to raise the whiteboard and said angrily: [Why hasn’t he finished drawing yet?]
Cai Shiyu’s fans hurriedly said: [Of course, it is to draw better. This way, Li Jiamao can guess it more easily.]
A melon-eating passerby looked at the whiteboard and said: [He draws quite decently.]
Cai Shiyu’s fans instantly straightened their backs. [You see? Cai Cai is good at drawing.]
Lin Luoqing looked at Cai Shiyu and also felt that it had taken him too long. “It is a bit of a waste of time.”
The moment his words came out, Cai Shiyu raised the whiteboard.
Li Jiamao could only see a person lying on a straight line. He wondered, “What is this? Fall to the ground?”
Lin Luoqing smiled and thought in his heart, ‘You can’t draw this way. Why didn’t you draw a carp?’
Cai Shiyu also seemed to realize it. He quickly added a carp under the straight line and another next to the person’s head.
Now Li Jiamao guessed it. “Lying on ice and asking for carp!”
“Yes.” Cai Shiyu laughed.
His fans boasted once again. [Sure enough, Cai Cai’s drawings are very vivid!]
[Stop urging. Isn’t it to let you guess it all at once? If it wasn’t for the image he drew, would you have guessed it?]
[Li Jiamao really isn’t gentle at all. How can someone who is as gentle and delicate as Cai Cai like him?]
[Yes. Ji Yuxiao next door is more handsome than him, richer than him, taller than him, more capable than him and so gentle.]
[I think Cai Cai is very compatible with Ji Yuxiao! One is a handsome boss and the other is a cute star. Perfect!]
[Yes, if only Cai Cai’s CP was Ji Yuxiao.]
[That’s right. Li Jiamao isn’t worthy. Ji Yuxiao is worthy of Cai Cai!]
The Passion CP fans, “???”
The passersby. ‘Ah, this…’
Li Jiamao fans, ‘Thank you for the invitation. We also feel unworthy. Please break up as soon as possible!’
[No, did some fans forget that the live broadcast rooms are merged? Do you have the nerve to say this publicly in person?] Passion CP fans were shocked. [Do you have no shame?]
[Hahaha, I’m laughing to death. This is the first time I have seen someone who is so impatient to die. It is indeed a handsome and domineering boss x cute star, but unfortunately, it isn’t your brother. What type of cutie is your brother?]
[No no, I thought that Ji Yuxiao likes Lin Luoqing. This is obvious to all. How can there be blind people who want to dismantle the CP and ship him with another person?]
[Lin Luoqing has good looks, is famous, won awards and has popular works. What does your brother have? Aren’t you too embarrassed to pull people into a ship here? Do you deserve it? Ji Yuxiao might be worthy of your Cai Cai but do you think your Cai Cai is worthy of him?]
[The most important thing is that Chairman Ji hasn’t seen Cai Shiyu once since he started recording the show, hahaha. Can this also be pulled into a CP? I know that Chairman Ji is handsome and gentle, but isn’t this gentleness only toward Qing Qing? I haven’t seen him being gentle to other people.]
[It is true that Chairman Ji doesn’t seem to talk much with other people.]
[F*k, yes. New sugar has appeared!]
[So sweet, so sweet. Chairman Ji and Qing Qing are really easy to ship. There are different candies every day and every day is sweeter than the day before.]
[That’s right!]
Soon, the Passion CP fans returned to the state of happily eating sugar. Meanwhile, Cai Shiyu’s fans became more and more dissatisfied and felt that these people were managing things too much. They had CP freedom. Why hinder their brother’s CP? Could they enforce the law?
Ji Yuxiao and Lin Luoqing weren’t married yet. Maybe they were just a superficial couple?
The fans thought so. They looked at Cai Shiyu and felt more and more that it wasn’t easy for him. Alas, their brother was so good. Why couldn’t he have a CP as good as Ji Yuxiao.
It was too unfair.
