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

It was nearly 10 p.m. when we returned to the Heartbeat Hut from Qingshan Park.

"Nianchu—have you rested?"

There was a knock on the door. Bai Nianchu opened it while drying her wet hair.

She had just finished showering and removed her light makeup. Her long, black hair, damp with water, cascaded over her shoulders, and water droplets clung to her eyelashes. Even her cool eyes were misty with moisture. Below that were her thin lips, made extra moist by the steam, redder, more vibrant, and more alluring than usual.

Even complete strangers couldn't help but take a second look at her when they saw her like this, let alone her roommate who admired her.

"it's me."

Xu Muyang hadn't changed out of his suit yet, clearly having waited by her door for a long time before knocking after hearing the noise.

Xu Muyang has short, dazzling golden hair, like flowing honey, and clear blue eyes like a clear sky, easily reminding people of vibrant scenes like beaches, sunshine, and waves.

He himself is indeed like that.

Upon seeing Bai Nianchu, he couldn't help but smile, a joy spreading across his face.

It really looks like a cheerful golden retriever.

Bai Nianchu thought.

"Is there something you need?"

"Uh... I..." Xu Muyang stammered, paused for two seconds, and then said haltingly, "I wanted to ask... are you free tomorrow night?"

"I didn't mean anything by it!" the man explained, gesturing wildly, veins bulging on his arms and neck, clutching a theater ticket in his hand. "I have a performance tomorrow night at the A City Grand Theater. If you're free..."

"Okay," Bai Nianchu said calmly.

"Huh!?" Xu Muyang was stunned, as if he had been hit on the head by an unexpected joy. "You...you agreed?"

The comment section was filled with laughter:

[Hahaha, Xu Muyang is acting like a complete idiot.]

[Woman 4: What are you babbling about? If you want to ask me out, just say so. It's not like I'm against it.]

[Shouldn't we be on a private date?]

[Well...maybe not. The third male lead just invited the fourth female lead to a play.]

【That's pretty ambiguous ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ】

[If the other male guests find out, they'll probably be furious~]

[I'm still reeling from the last game... the hug between the fourth male and fourth female characters was so sweet!]

[Xiao Xu is great too! He's handsome, sunny, and good at making money. I checked, and tickets for almost every one of his tour shows sell out as soon as they go on sale; you can't get one even if you want to. That ticket for the third male lead giving away to the fourth female lead must have been a pre-arranged front-row seat.]

Wow... that's really thoughtful.

After Xu Muyang realized what was happening, he quickly handed over the tickets and the bag he was carrying in his other hand. "Here are your theater tickets. And this is what I bought at the nearby pharmacy. I noticed you coughed a few times tonight and seemed a bit chilly, so it must be a cold cough. I bought you some cough medicine. I also boiled some ginger and tangerine peel water downstairs. It will make your throat feel much better. I'll bring it up to you in a bit."

Bai Nianchu lowered her eyes, somewhat surprised that he was so thoughtful.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome!" Xu Muyang glanced at Bai Nianchu's still-wet black hair and worriedly reminded her, "Remember to dry your hair, or you'll catch a cold."

"Yes, I will."

When he went downstairs, Xu Muyang was still in a daze.

The thought of Bai Nianchu accepting his ticket and appearing in the audience tomorrow night to watch his performance intently... made Xu Muyang almost faint with happiness.

Anyone with eyes could tell from that excited expression that something good had happened.

Xu Muyang was boiling a large pot of ginger and tangerine peel water in the kitchen, and everyone got a share.

Seeing him come down excitedly, Liu Zhiwei filled a bowl and was about to take it upstairs when, out of consideration for the ginger water, she kindly reminded him, "Nianchu has a cat's tongue."

Xu Muyang paused, looking annoyed: "I almost forgot. I'll let it air out for a bit, and then I'll put it up when it's not so hot anymore. Thank you, Zhiwei."

A good ally is in my heart!

"I'm leaving." Liu Zhiwei waved his hand, concealing his achievements and fame.

The second floor.

Bai Nianchu had just dried her hair and put down the hairdryer when there was another knock on the door.

The door opened, and this time it was Chen Yuze.

He seems to be born unable to dress properly; he can never button up the top two buttons on any shirt with buttons.

Because of the height difference, Bai Nianchu could see the firm pectoral muscles exposed below the collarbone with just a glance.

It's still wheat-colored.

Suddenly, a dry, low voice rang in her ear.

"Is it pretty?"

Chen Yuze bent down, his lowered posture highlighting the powerful muscles in his body, making him look like a wild beast poised to pounce, intimidating and intimidating...

It also carries a strong seductive connotation.

Bai Nianchu showed no embarrassment or shyness whatsoever. Upon hearing his question, she even glanced at him again.

"It's alright," she said.

She has never liked lying.

Compared to his followers who had fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood in his previous life, Chen Yuze's muscles were indeed insignificant. After all, the muscles he had built up through years of exercise were no match for the steel-like bodies of those battle-hardened veterans... to put it another way, it was like the difference between an athletic student and a special forces soldier.

"...?"

For a moment, Chen Yuze's aggressive face showed surprise, and the arrogance in his eyes disappeared.

He reached down and pulled open his collar, looking down at his well-toned physique: well-developed pectoral muscles, firm eight-pack abs, and smoothly defined V-lines...

Is this just "okay"?

Chen Yuze's expression became even more surprised, even somewhat shocked. He looked at Bai Nianchu as if he were looking at a highly accomplished monk who had cultivated for many years.

He could tell that Bai Nianchu was speaking from the heart.

So either she's not interested in male beauty, or she feels he still has potential.

After a long silence, Chen Yuze finally spoke hesitantly, "Is it... not big enough?"

Bai Nianchu: "?"

Gradually, Chen Yuze's gaze changed from disbelief to understanding.

"I see."

Everyone has their own XP. When he occasionally came across male mothers with bulging chests on Little Green Book, he scoffed. But if Bai Nianchu's type was like that... he couldn't understand it, but it wasn't impossible for him to do some targeted training.

Let's start today.

Before leaving, Chen Yuze also handed Bai Nianchu a gift bag, which contained cough medicine and a cute hand warmer.

The viewers in the live stream were completely dumbfounded.

I can't take it anymore...

Did the fifth male lead misunderstand something?

I don't know. They said "not big enough" and turned away, as if they'd made up their minds...

[This guy's physique isn't good? Bai Nianchu is too picky.]

So what? They're rich, powerful, and good-looking. Why would they choose you ugly ducklings instead of the good ones?

Are these guys lining up to "check in" at the fourth female contestant's spot? The first two left, and now Su Yi'an is here.

[And she even bumped into Xu Muyang, who was delivering ginger water (penguin covering mouth and laughing jpg.)]
