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

"Let's find a seat first," Su Yi'an said.

The five boys, Xu Muyang and Ling Yan, sat in the left row, while Su Yi'an, Lin Zhao, and Chen Yuze sat in the right row.

Wen Shanshan has already chosen to sit between Su Yi'an and Lin Zhao, which means that the remaining four girls can only choose the seats between Lin Zhao and Chen Yuze, to the left and right of Xu Muyang and Ling Yan, and between the two of them.

Choosing a seat is also a problem.

Currently, only Bai Nianchu has romantic storylines with these male guests. The other female guests are not in a hurry to choose and want to wait and see.

Xu Muyang bit his lip.

Reason told him to give Bai Nianchu room to choose, but he couldn't control his anxious emotions.

He didn't want it to be like this either.

But Bai Nianchu is just too beautiful and too popular. If he doesn't say or do anything, other men will definitely beat him to it.

How could he just stand by and watch this happen!

So the next second, before he could even sit down properly, Xu Muyang jumped up again, his eyes blazing with fury.

"Nianchu, you...you sit here with me."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room froze.

Xu Muyang ignored the several glares thrown at him, his gaze fixed firmly on Bai Nianchu.

As the other person's gaze slowly lingered on his face and then fell down to his tie clip, Xu Muyang felt a surge of joy and, feigning indifference but with considerable pride, puffed out his chest.

That little expression seemed to say: Look! I've been wearing the gift you gave me very carefully!

His cheerful demeanor even prompted the system administrator to chime in with a comment:

Does he think he's a puppy? What's he getting so worked up about!

[It's just a tie clip; anyone who didn't know better would think you'd put a collar on him.]

Bai Nianchu: "..."

That being said, Xu Muyang's appreciation for and careful selection of tie clips still pleased her.

She has no preference for dog or cat breeds, as long as they are obedient.

So, with Xu Xiaogou's eyes growing brighter and brighter, Bai Nianchu sat down between him and Ling Yan.

Although she didn't choose the seat right next to him on the far side, Xu Muyang was already very happy.

They were pouring water, getting blankets, and urging the waiters to hurry up and serve the food.

They're busy as a spinning top, but they're still enjoying it.

Lin Zhao couldn't stand his sycophantic behavior, and her face visibly darkened. Chen Yuze chuckled, his tone also carrying a hint of sarcasm. Even the most composed Su Yi'an's smile faded considerably.

Wen Shanshan sat in a row with them, and with a slight glance to the side, she could sense the changes in the men's emotions, which made her think more deeply.

"I didn't expect there to be a restaurant in the park." Wen Shanshan's eyes lit up as she started a new conversation. "This is my first time here."

"I looked up this place before I came," Su Yi'an said. "If you want to experience an outdoor picnic, the place can also provide setup."

"Wow, that's awesome!" Jiang Meng exclaimed enthusiastically. "We can have a picnic while listening to live music."

"Okay." Su Yi'an nodded. "However, let's eat and listen here tonight. It's inconvenient for you girls to sit on the floor since you're all wearing skirts."

Wen Shanshan raised an eyebrow: "Teacher Su is so thoughtful."

Su Yi'an had previously called her Teacher Wen, and she had returned the greeting by calling her Teacher Su.

This restaurant serves affordable Western food, such as handmade pizzas, tapas, borscht, and baked pasta. The food looks good and tastes decent.

After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, the accompanying director had the staff bring out small desserts. Underneath each person's dessert was a card, which contained a small game provided by the production team.

"What is it? Is it Truth or Dare again?"

Everyone looked at the cards in their hands, their expressions varying.

"This is so embarrassing! Is the production team deliberately trying to make me look bad?" Xu Muyang scratched the back of his neck, looking miserable. "Who wants to go first?"

Everyone: "Whoever proposes first, goes first."

Xu Muyang: "..."

His expression was extremely pitiful, but with everyone watching him, Xu Muyang could only drag his heavy steps and pick and choose from the audience watching the live show not far away, finally selecting a boy who looked quite young.

"Hello," Xu Muyang said stiffly as he approached, "Do you know me?"

Stranger: "Huh? Who are you?"

"I'm going to be incredibly famous someday!"

The stranger: "..."

Xu Muyang: "(╥_╥)"

The stranger: "Uh... well, I wish you success."

Xu Muyang returned to his seat, and someone couldn't help but laugh, and everyone burst into laughter.

Even those who don't usually smile had bright smiles on their lips.

Whether it was mockery or something else, Xu Muyang didn't care at all.

He looked like a wilted cabbage; his once golden hair had turned a shade grayer, and his eyes drooped down, like a puppy soaked by the rain.

The puppy felt wronged, but it didn't say anything.

Xu Muyang noticed the faint smile in Bai Nianchu's eyes, and his own blue eyes became even more moist.

He sat close to Bai Nianchu, tilted his head, and leaned his whole body towards her, looking at her with a hint of reproach, his drawn-out voice sounding like a coquettish plea: "Nianchu~ even you are laughing at me."

Everyone: "..."

Viewers in the live stream: [...]

[What is Xu Muyang doing here...?]

I must say, he's incredibly cute when he acts like a child.

[Hehe, your throat must be burning from all that talking.]

Ling Yan frowned, his long arms and legs giving him a significant advantage at this moment.

He reached out, placed his palm on Xu Muyang's shoulder, and pressed him back into his seat through Bai Nianchu.

Xu Muyang: "?"

Ling Yan said expressionlessly, "Too close."

Xu Muyang: "..."

He's close to Bai Nianchu, what does that have to do with Ling Yan!?

Xu Muyang gritted his teeth, but refrained from retorting on the spot because so many people were watching.

"Let's continue."

Everyone turned their attention to Jiang Meng, who was sitting to Xu Muyang's right.

"My task is very simple," Jiang Meng blinked and said, "Choose someone present and use a very sweet and coquettish tone to fawn over them."

Jiang Meng also has a bit of a wicked sense of humor and a vengeful nature.

Her gaze swept over the five male guests, lingering particularly long on Xu Muyang and Su Yi'an.

"I choose..."

Just as the two men were feeling a little uncomfortable under her gaze, Jiang Meng changed the subject and sweetly announced to Bai Nianchu, another female guest, "I choose Nianchu!"

Xu Muyang and Su Yi'an: "?"

It's hard to describe what this feeling is like.

If I had to put it in perspective, it was a bit like being ambushed and then having your base attacked.

It was just a small game, and she didn't have to do anything, so Bai Nianchu naturally wouldn't refuse.

She raised her hand, only slightly shaking her wrist and fingertips, as if gently brushing the air.

The original intention was to have Jiang Meng come closer to talk, making it easier for her to complete the task.

Jiang Meng, however, was like a kitten that had caught the scent of cat treats and rushed over, meowing incessantly. In a flash, she jumped from her seat to behind Bai Nianchu, hugging her from behind, chair and all: "I'm here!"

Male guest: "..."

A strange sense of crisis has increased.

Bai Nianchu didn't show much expression, but her eyes held a hint of amusement and helplessness: "Stop fooling around."

"I wasn't messing around," Jiang Meng blinked her big eyes innocently. "I was doing a mission."
