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

Ling Yan's first reaction was to pretend to be asleep.

I am not awake.

Ling Yan silently recited the words in his heart, but his eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.

Bai Nianchu could feel the hand holding her arm stiffen for a moment.

She didn't call him out on it.

The system also woke up groggily: [Hmm... What time is it?]

It glanced at the time, then lay back down beside Bai Nianchu's pillow.

[Host, it's only a little past five... Go back to sleep.]

Now that they were awake, Bai Nianchu withdrew her hand.

She pulled her left hand out of Chen Yuze's palm and her right hand broke free from Ling Yan's embrace.

Both men frowned.

Twenty minutes later, in a half-asleep state, Bai Nianchu felt a weight on her arm.

They crept up on us like octopuses.

"Heartbeat House" starts airing promptly at 7:00 AM.

Seeing the three of them tangled together in their sleeping position, the comment section immediately erupted in excitement:

【Aaaaaaah, what did I just see?!】

Were those three people punished yesterday...? (Their future looks incredibly bright!)

[Excuse me, are you a married couple?]

[Like newlywed couples, they even hold hands while sleeping...]

"No way! There's so much space, why are you all crammed together to sleep? You two are crowding my wife!"

【4499!!】

【5499!!】

I support All First!

[What a mess! I'll just take a sip, then another ....]

【…】

When Bai Nianchu woke up, the sunlight was already shining on the head of her bed.

She sat up and moved her stiff, numb arms.

Chen Yuze leaned against the headboard, a hint of satiated languor in his eyes.

Ling Yan sat on the edge of the bed, dressed neatly, with the tips of his ears still a little red.

They tacitly avoided mentioning what happened last night or how they woke up this morning.

The two men simultaneously looked away when their eyes met Bai Nianchu's.

Looking at her face...

Even though I didn't say anything, I still feel like I was being scolded.

The three returned to the villa from Love House, where Xu Muyang was the first to greet them.

"Nianchu!"

Xu Muyang waved to her.

No matter how far away they were, they couldn't hide the smile that shone on that fair face.

His voice was loud and clear, reaching Bai Nianchu's ears perfectly.

Welcome back!

This scene drew out many viewers who supported Xu Muyang:

[Xiao Xu Belike: You're back! The puppy missed you!]

[The third guy is so sunny and cheerful! He doesn't get internal conflict or anxiety, and he seems to have a fulfilling life every day. Being with him would make me feel like I'm constantly recharged!^^]

That's exactly right! A happy puppy's feelings are never in doubt; they're always direct and passionate. They never calculate how much they give, and as long as the other person shows even the slightest effort or response, they'll wag their tail with joy!

[A little dog that always waits for you to come home... Girl number four, turn around and look at him! TvT]

Xu Muyang truly lives up to his name, radiating energy like a little sun every day.

At first he just waved, but he couldn't stay still at all, and he wasn't the kind of person who would just sit still and wait.

He had just finished greeting her when he took off running towards Bai Nianchu.

The sunlight shone on his cheeks, making them sparkle, and it also shone on his hearty smile.

Xu Muyang is probably the kind of boy that everyone in school would have a crush on: clean-cut, cheerful, and exuding a refreshing and pleasant scent.

Bai Nianchu's eyes met his smiling gaze.

For some reason, I was momentarily stunned by the golden retriever's smile.

Xu Muyang ran up to Bai Nianchu and almost stopped in his tracks.

Ling Yan and Chen Yuze both instinctively reached out to stop them.

Xu Muyang's gaze fell on Ling Yan's arm—it was wrapped in gauze, which wasn't there yesterday.

"How did you get hurt, youngest?" Xu Muyang asked with a perfunctory tone. "Be careful next time."

He didn't even wait for Ling Yan to explain the cause of the injury or how serious it was.

Ling Yan was a man of few words and didn't care.

After casually mentioning it, Xu Muyang immediately turned his attention back to Bai Nianchu, bombarding her with questions: "Did you sleep well last night? Were there any mosquitoes? Was the bed cramped? Did they take the opportunity to bully you?"

Bai Nianchu remained silent for a moment.

So many questions...

Suddenly I felt a strong urge to pinch Xu Muyang's incessantly chattering mouth shut.

He was quite quiet yesterday.

After one night, it returned to its original form.

Bai Nianchu replied expressionlessly, "Okay, no, it's not crowded, no."

This time, Xu Muyang fell silent.

Why is Bai Nianchu acting like a robot...?

At least the AI ​​would reply with a bunch of polite words.

Could it be that she thinks he talks too much? Xu Muyang thought awkwardly.

But... but when he meets someone he likes, he can't help but care about her and want to know about her.

This is not something he can control.

After all the guests had finished breakfast, the director came over.

The director began announcing today's itinerary: "Today's activity is—a jungle adventure!"

Simply put, it's a jungle version of adventure games like bungee jumping, rock climbing, rappelling, and ziplining.

Because the open play area is quite large, the ten guests need to be divided into two groups to go to the locations.

"The way we invite people to team up today is very simple," the director paused, deliberately building suspense before continuing, "We're not making games; it's all about speed—"

"The team that invites first and successfully forms a group is considered a single team!"

Xu Muyang had never been so happy.

He had already taken the seat next to Bai Nianchu before the director announced the event.

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Muyang had already grabbed Bai Nianchu's wrist.

"Nianchu, would you like to team up with me? Please say yes, I beg you!"

The entire sentence was delivered without a single pause, and the speaking speed was as fast as rap.

Before the other male guests could even take a step, the two of them had already teamed up.

Bai Nianchu: "Okay."

Xu Muyang's eyes immediately lit up like stars.

He finally had another chance to go on a date with Bai Nianchu alone!

Xu Muyang was overjoyed and wished he could hug her and spin her around right then and there.

The other men stood frozen in place, their expressions varied.

The only thing they had in common was that they both looked at Xu Muyang with a hint of disdain.

If Xu Muyang's tantrums and relentless pursuit weren't directed at Bai Nianchu, they wouldn't have been prejudiced.

After getting involved with Bai Nianchu, they increasingly felt that Xu Muyang lacked any manly qualities. Not only did he look like a "pretty boy," but he also spoke in a clingy and indecisive way. However, Bai Nianchu readily accepted his coquettish and cute... no, his silly and foolish behavior.

They disliked him more and more, and secretly cracked their knuckles.

Not only did they murmur the crickets in their hearts, but they even cursed them in secret.

The 34 fans in the comment section have already started popping champagne:

【Yay! The third male lead finally has a date!!】

Is this what it means to finally reap the rewards after suffering...? (wiping away tears)

[Xu Muyang finally got a chance, look how happy he is!]

To be fair, the third male lead reacted really quickly. I hadn't even heard what the director was saying before he made the invitation.

[As expected of a stage actor, their improvisation skills are amazing.]

[The other male guests' Sichuan opera face-changing performances were truly excellent (I'm still appreciating them...)]
