Romance Variety Show: The aloof and beautiful fourth female lead is always coveted.

Bai Nianchu was awakened by the sounds and aromas coming from the kitchen.

After she finished washing up, she went into the kitchen and saw Gu Jinxing wearing an apron and frying eggs.

A plate of sausage and cheese rolls, milk pancakes, and two bowls of cooked pumpkin soup were already on the table.

Gu Jinxing was very perceptive and noticed Bai Nianchu before she could speak. "Good morning, Xiao Chu."

"I made breakfast. I'll take you back after you eat." He turned off the stove, scooped the soft-boiled eggs from the frying pan into a plate, and put them on the table.

"Thank you for your trouble, Brother Jinxing." Bai Nianchu glanced around and said, "It looks delicious."

She wasn't just being polite.

Gu Jinxing's cooking skills are excellent; the presentation alone surpasses that of many others. This breakfast not only smells delicious but also looks very appetizing.

"No trouble at all, I've always enjoyed cooking." Gu Jinxing chuckled softly, his eyes filled with doting affection.

The system suddenly appeared and solemnly exposed Bai Nianchu's lie: "[Big Brother is lying! He doesn't make breakfast when he lives alone; his assistant buys it for him.]"

[He will only cook for the host himself.]

Bai Nianchu remained silent.

She knew in her heart that, given Gu Jinxing's temperament, even if she exposed him to his face, he would only smile helplessly and praise her in a deep voice, "Xiao Chu is really smart."

This breakfast was indeed very delicious.

The moment food enters the mouth and is slowly swallowed, both the taste buds and the stomach feel satisfied.

The pancakes were as soft as clouds, with a light milky aroma, not too sweet or greasy; the sausage and cheese rolls were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a perfect balance of salty and savory; the pumpkin soup was cooked until soft and sweet, and one bite warmed even the stomach; even the simplest fried egg was made exceptionally delicious by Gu Jinxing.

"How's the taste? Is it alright?"

Before Gu Jinxing could even raise the corners of his lips, a gentle warmth had already spread across his eyes.

Bai Nianchu met his smiling eyes and nodded.

"Eat more if you like it," Gu Jinxing said softly. "If you like it, your brother will make it for you often in the future."

[Huh?] The system had just finished watching an episode of a short drama and couldn't even understand what people were saying. [Will your brother make it for you from now on?]

Bai Nianchu: '...'

Bai Nianchu: "What show were you watching just now?"

The system chuckled and said: "[The short drama I saw on the Green Fruit homepage is called 'What to Do, I Don't Want to Be Your Brother']"

Bai Nianchu: "...Don't look at that messy stuff."

The system scratched its head sheepishly: [Actually, I also have other titles in my collection: "Seven Powerful Brothers Pamper the Heiress," "Reborn: I Rewrote My Brothers' Fates," "My Brothers' Beloved," "After Refusing Blind Dates, Nine Brothers Pampered Me Like a Treasure," "The Heiress Returns, and My Brothers Take Turns Pampering Her"...]

Bai Nianchu paused for a moment, then said, "It's alright, go play."

Chen Yuze had insomnia last night.

He lay on the bed, and as soon as he closed his eyes, the scene of Bai Nianchu turning and leaving with Gu Jinxing was fixed in his mind.

The more he forced himself not to think about it, the more uncontrollably those images of what might happen when they were alone appeared in his mind, making his chest ache. He tossed and turned in bed and only managed to get a few hours of light sleep in the middle of the night.

When Chen Yuze opened his eyes, it was not yet fully light.

The space next to it was always empty, and the pillow and blanket were folded neatly without a single crease.

Chen Yuze sat up, leaned against the headboard in silence for a long time, and suddenly felt like a resentful husband.

……Hold.

Chen Yuze was visibly upset—his face in the mirror while washing up looked as fierce as if someone owed him eight hundred lifetimes.

He didn't have much luggage at Love House, just a briefcase, which he packed in a few minutes.

Once outside, the photographer, carrying his equipment, followed at a distance, not daring to get too close.

Chen Yuze's facial features were already cold and hard, and he had a somewhat fierce look when he wasn't smiling. This morning, he kept a straight face the whole time, and the low pressure around him was frightening.

Even from three meters away, the photographer could feel the oppressive "don't mess with me" vibe.

The villa for ten people has just started to get lively.

They all gathered in the restaurant on the first floor to eat breakfast and chat, occasionally glancing towards the door.

When Chen Yuze pushed the door open and entered, all eyes in the room fell on him.

"Brother Yuze?" Jiang Meng peeked out, looking around curiously. "Why are you alone? Where's Nianchu?"

Chen Yuze wasn't in the mood to say more, and only coldly said, "She'll be back later."

Everyone was stunned, watching him walk straight into the living room, ignoring everyone.

Is this... a conflict?

A few girls peeked over and whispered, "This is the first time I've seen him look so pale." "Did he and Nianchu have a fight?"

Did they have an argument? Or did they make Bai Nianchu angry?

The men's little calculations subtly reached a consensus at this moment.

Although it is very immoral to gloat at such a time.

But since they are rivals for each other's affections, morality is the last thing they need.

Not only did she fail to suppress her smile, but her expression while eating breakfast also became much more cheerful.

Chen Yuze glanced at them, too lazy to explain.

Anyway, once they see Gu Jinxing, their smiles will shift from their faces.

This delicate atmosphere lasted for twenty minutes.

When the production crew's car pulled up in front of the villa and the door opened, the first person to step out wasn't the person they had been longing to see, but rather Gu Jinxing, whom they had met once before.

Bai Nianchu's brother who is not related to her by blood.

The men's faces stiffened, and they all sat up straighter in unison.

Gu Jinxing wore a smoky gray shirt and black trousers. He was tall and slender, with a calm and reserved yet noble demeanor.

His appearance wasn't the flamboyant kind of handsome, but rather the refined and elegant kind. Just by standing there quietly, his aura completely overshadowed everyone else.

Then, he reached out and helped Bai Nianchu out of the car, while carefully shielding her from the door with his other hand.

Bai Nianchu hadn't had time to do her makeup yet; her bare face and radiant white skin gave her a more serene and delicate appearance compared to when she was made up.

Although her expression remained as indifferent as ever, standing next to Gu Jinxing, she inexplicably exuded an atmosphere where no one else could intrude.

There's a sense of harmony, and a sense of compatibility.

Not only did the guests at the scene fall silent, but the viewers in the live stream also went quiet for a few seconds:

[What a perfect couple... wait, isn't that the fourth female lead and her brother?]

[Wasn't last night the night of Love House for Girl 4 and Boy 5? Why was it her brother who brought her home?]

No wonder Chen Yuze looked so grumpy this morning and went back to the villa alone; it turns out he got robbed of his chance last night.

[It's probably because the older brother is worried about his younger sister and doesn't want her to sleep in the same bed as the male guest.]

[How pitiful! We're not even together yet, and my brother-in-law is already targeting me ^^]

[That's only natural! If my sister looked like the fourth female lead, there'd be no way I'd let her on the show.]
