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

Chapter 65 Luckily I made it in time

Not only Bai Nianchu was stunned, but Ye Siyao and Chen Yuze were also speechless for a moment.

This cluster of pink roses was a surprise gift from Xu Muyang, not flowers he had ordered in advance.

That is to say-

He rushed downstairs and bought it from a flower shop on some street, I don't know how far he ran or which street he went to.

The system checked the route and silently told Bai Nianchu: "It was bought from a flower shop on the next street; it's a two-kilometer round trip."

Running two kilometers in ten minutes is not difficult for the average person.

But Xu Muyang was able to complete the entire process of "finding the way - running there - selecting and buying flowers - running back" within ten minutes.

I can't imagine how fast he ran.

[Oh my god! We're back from the third male lead's perspective; the flower shop on that street is really far from here.]

You must be exhausted after sweating so much.

Of course, the third guy didn't want to disrupt the fourth girl's date, and he was also worried that the first girl wouldn't be able to hold him back, so he had to run as fast as he could... He really wanted to give her that bouquet.

[Oh my god, his back is completely soaked... I'm starting to feel sorry for him (˘•̥⧿•̥˘ )]

Why are you so insistent on sending flowers?

Because dates always start or end with a flower, baby.

Life needs a sense of ritual, and so does dating. It should start with receiving a bouquet of flowers and a formal confession. An ambiguous beginning will only end in ambiguity. Sending flowers is a very clear expression of 'liking' someone.

"Ha ha…"

Xu Muyang was still trying to regulate his breathing. He swallowed large gulps of air, and an uncontrollable tremor rolled in his throat.

"The flowers Nianchu... gave you..."

Sweat rolled down Xu Muyang's forehead, dripped down his chin, and flowed into his collar as he panted.

At this moment, he was hardly a good-looking man; in fact, he looked rather disheveled.

But... his eyes are very bright.

Those blue eyes were clear and bright, as if they had been immersed in water.

A relieved and joyful smile spread across his eyes, like the blazing sunlight piercing through the sea, instantly igniting his entire face with a vibrant and energetic aura.

"Thankfully... I made it in time," Xu Muyang said.

Bai Nianchu's originally calm gaze flickered.

She took the flowers and handed over a tissue with her other hand.

Why?

You can send flowers anytime you want.

Why make yourself look so pathetic?

Xu Muyang sensed the doubt in her voice and smiled brightly.

"As for the reason... I'll write to you tonight."

After finally getting rid of those two big shots, Chen Yuze's expression softened slightly.

But when his gaze fell on the flowers in Bai Nianchu's arms, it suddenly darkened.

Xu Muyang hugged her right in front of her, kissed her cheek, and gave her flowers.

Chen Yuze felt as if he had swallowed a whole lemon; his tongue, throat, and even stomach all felt an undeniable sour taste.

He admitted that he was jealous.

The jealousy was very obvious, to the point that it was "visible on his face".

This was a feeling Chen Yuze had never experienced before; it was novel, yet extremely uncomfortable.

Before appearing on this show, he had also watched previous seasons of "Heartbeat House".

The ambiguous entanglements between men and women and the various "famous scenes" of emotional breakdowns all seem fake no matter how you look at them.

He couldn't understand: how could there be genuine feelings between people who had only spent a month together, with so many cameramen and staff following them around all the time?

When it was his turn, he suddenly understood.

It was fortunate that he could endure it, digging his nails deep into the flesh of his palms to keep himself awake through the pain.

He also had to be patient.

We must at least endure until... we are qualified to intervene.

He noted down what Xu Muyang did today.

In the afternoon, Chen Yuze took Bai Nianchu to visit bookstores and some antique shops, and finally they had dinner at a well-known Cantonese restaurant.

He didn't forget to prepare a gift for today's date.

After dinner, Chen Yuze took the gift out of the trunk after Bai Nianchu got into the car.

"A gift for you."

The gift was a bit heavy; it was a YSL skincare gift set and a bracelet box.

The bracelet is really pretty.

[After checking, it turns out to be a Van Cleef & Arpels four-leaf clover bracelet, with a market price of over 40,000 yuan.]

My boyfriend only goes to Xixi (a Chinese online forum) to look up gifts that make his girlfriend cry on her birthday or that make women cry...

[Hahaha, if you send something so cheap and low-class, won't it just get thrown away as trash?]

Chen Yuze took out a bracelet and said, "Want to try it?"

"Okay." Bai Nianchu reached out her hand to him.

So Chen Yuze naturally lifted her wrist.

Compared to his wheat-colored, large, and somewhat calloused hands, Bai Nianchu's hands were fair and smooth like works of art, and his wrists were so slender that they were pitiful.

Temperature too.

His palms were as hot as a heater, but her hands were always ice-cold.

He really wanted to wrap both of his hands around Bai Nianchu's palms, wrists, and every finger, making them warm.

Chen Yuze kept his head down, his movements as he put on the bracelet were very serious, and his slightly furrowed brows betrayed the tension beneath his calm surface.

After fastening the bracelet, Chen Yuze did not immediately unfasten her hand.

Instead, he gently stroked the part of the bracelet that touched his skin with his hot fingertips, as if he were caressing some precious treasure.

That brief touch and warmth vanished as the hand withdrew.

"It's beautiful," Chen Yuze said in a deep voice, "and it suits you very well."

"Thanks."

Bai Nianchu and Chen Yuze are not talkative people.

But there's a magnetic pull between them; whether they're chatting casually or in complete silence, they never feel awkward.

While waiting at the traffic light, Chen Yuze turned his head and glanced at Bai Nianchu.

He noticed that Bai Nianchu would sometimes drift into a deep, silent state, and at those times, she would appear quite detached.

It's as if... they don't belong to this world.

Chen Yuze couldn't fathom her erratic thoughts.

He could only say or do something to attract her attention, using himself as an anchor to pull her back to this world.

So he asked, "Did you have a good day?"

Pulled back to reality by Chen Yuze, Bai Nianchu blinked and said, "Mm."

Her answers were always short and concise.

Chen Yuze's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he continued to ask.

"Is it more fun at the cat and dog cafe, or at the arcade?"

This question already made Sima Zhao's intentions obvious to everyone.

It was practically asking outright: Was it happier being with him or with Xu Muyang?

Chen Yuze's thoughts were not hidden, and even people who were not sensitive to emotions could hear the hidden meaning.

Besides, Bai Nianchu was simply too lazy to bother with it.

That doesn't mean she couldn't hear it.

Bai Nianchu remained silent for a while.

Chen Yuze patiently waited for her answer.

Whether it's good or bad, it won't affect his choices and actions.
