I was slacking off on a dating reality show when the female guests treated me like a treasure chest.

When Chen Nian's voice rang out, everyone's expressions were filled with surprise. This opening was quite interesting.

However, this is not the end.

Chen Nian knew this classic line from Supreme Treasure by heart.

He could be described as a movie enthusiast.

He has written many film reviews on Douban, so he felt he could at least imitate a line of dialogue.

What's more, he's watched A Chinese Odyssey at least ten times.

After reciting the first line, Chen Nian naturally continued with the next line.

"There was once a sincere love placed before me."

I didn't cherish it.

"I only regretted it when I lost it."

"There is nothing more painful in this world than this..."

If there were water right now, Chen Nian wouldn't mind letting out a couple of drops to use as tears.

Would this classic piece be even better with someone else performing it?

Chen Nian was completely unaware that he was simultaneously performing and muttering to himself, managing to multitask.

If Tang Xi and others knew, they would probably be incredibly shocked; this is a natural talent for acting.

As the lines and facial expressions were delivered, the audience below the stage became completely engrossed.

Even the staff off-camera were deeply moved; Chen Nian was almost in tears.

"Slice my throat with your sword!"

"Don't hesitate any longer."

On stage, Chen Nian tilted his head back a few degrees higher, and with his dramatic expression, the words he uttered finally broke the defenses of everyone else in the audience.

"Pfft!" Liu Ting covered her mouth tightly, trying hard not to laugh. She looked up at Chen Nian holding a cucumber, preparing to commit suicide, and her stomach ached from holding it in.

The others weren't much better off; it was supposed to be a touching scene, but the cucumber part just made it hard to look away.

"Damn it, why didn't he just pick up a twig? Why did he have to grab a cucumber!"

Chen Nian was engrossed in his performance on stage and didn't notice anyone else at all. He was holding a cucumber to his neck with his right hand.

"If God could give me another chance..."

"I will say three words to that girl."

"I love you..."

"If I had to put a time limit on this love..."

"I hope it's...ten thousand years~"

These words deeply moved Liu Ting and the others, who had been trying to laugh just moments before.

"Ah~~"

Suddenly, Chen Nian let out a coquettish cry, and the cucumber in his hand fell to the ground. Clearly, this was another character's scene, which he had taken the opportunity to play in.

As the cucumber fell to the ground and broke in two, Liu Ting and the others in the audience couldn't hold back any longer.

"Hahaha~~"

"I can't take it anymore, I'm so sorry, I just can't hold it in!"

"The cucumber... the cucumber broke." Liu Ting laughed out loud, clutching her stomach. The next moment, noticing everyone's gaze on her, she grabbed Tang Xi's clothes and covered her face.

"Sorry, please continue, please continue!" Liu Ting said.

Tang Xi covered her neckline, speechlessly tugging at Liu Ting's head, "Get off me, I'm going to expose myself, you brat!"

These words immediately drew the attention of the male guests present.

Tang Xi felt utterly hopeless; nothing good could come of meeting this guy.

The farce that ensued took a while to end, at which point everyone looked at Chen Nian apologetically and clasped their hands in apology.

"It's alright, the performance is over," Chen Nian said. Thanks to their commotion, his wildly beating heart had calmed down.

"what?"

"It's over in less than a minute?"

"No, you need to do another piece. We still have cucumbers here."

"Shouldn't it take at least three minutes?"

When everyone heard it was over, they protested, saying that a one-minute talent show was far too short.

The butler chuckled sheepishly, then looked at Chen Nian and said, "Does guest Chen Nian have any other segments? How about we do another one?"

"That's all, I can't think of anything else." Chen Nian shook his head. He could only bear to do something so embarrassing once.

"In that case, let the other guests decide. Those who think it's worth voting for, please raise your hands to vote," the butler said to everyone.

Although everyone wanted to watch more, they still thought carefully when it came time to vote.

In the end, Su Xiao cast her vote first.

Following that, Tang Xi, Xia Yao, and others also cast their votes.

Time passed slowly, and eventually, after Qi Feng cast his vote, no one else voted.

"Chen Nian, eight votes," the butler announced.

Chen Nian looked surprised, not expecting to get eight votes, which was the second highest number of votes so far.

He bowed slightly to everyone in thanks, then returned to his seat.

Next, Liu Ting and Wen Jingran are the only ones left to perform. One will play the piano, and the other will sing.

Liu Ting was the fifth to perform. As a singer, she had only recently crossed over into the music industry and was still considered a newcomer.

However, when she sat down at the piano to play, she was just as good as everyone else, winning seven votes with a lyrical piece.

Wen Jingran was the last to go on stage and won six votes with a love song.

At this point, the results for the six individuals have been released.

To everyone's surprise, the singers received the fewest votes, while those who actually performed talents received the highest scores.

Su Xiao, who won the talent show tonight, received a gift, which was packaged in a gift box.

Everyone immediately gathered around, curious about what was inside.

Su Xiao curiously untied the ribbon on the gift box, and soon, the contents were revealed to everyone.

"Um?"

"A pair of necklaces?"

"No, these are couple necklaces!"

Everyone was surprised to see that the gift box contained a pair of couple necklaces.

"Who are you going to give it to, Su Xiao?" someone asked curiously.

Su Xiao shook her head and whispered, "I won't send it for now, I'll keep it for later."

She was a little dumbfounded at this moment, having inexplicably won a pair of couple necklaces. Fortunately, she wasn't asked to give one to someone else.

With the talent show segment over, it was already 9 p.m.

With one hour left before the recording ended, everyone's conversation revolved around the talent show segment. As they chatted, several girls quickly steered the conversation towards Chen Nian.

"Chen Nian, what did you mean by the classic quote from Supreme Treasure just now?"

"There was a female lead in the performance just now, right? I'll cooperate with you one more time."

Wouldn't it be better to be with the love of one's life?

"..."

Everyone was talking, and Chen Nian had a headache listening to them. He could only hear the chatter in his ears and had no idea what they were saying, which was affecting his eating.

"Why don't you and Wen Jingran come together once? You're professionals," Chen Nian replied to Liu Ting's question.

"That's right!" Liu Ting realized, then pulled Wen Jingran to the stage to do it again. This time, Liu Ting picked up a tree branch.

The scene was incredibly lively for a time.

Looking at the two people on the stage, Zhou Yu said to Xia Yao, "The piano piece you played the other day was very beautiful. Why don't you accompany them?"

"Oh! Xia Yao is going to accompany us? Come on!" Liu Ting gestured with the tree branch in her hand, full of enthusiasm.

Xia Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Which day?" She remembered that she had used the piano on the third floor once, on the first day when she was choosing a room.
