I was slacking off on a dating reality show when the female guests treated me like a treasure chest.
Chapter 25 You're here to buy goods, right?
Soon, the other guests also finished writing their marriage plaques.
As per the previously agreed-upon rules, everyone would inform each other before hanging up the sign, without letting everyone know, only the person whose name was written on it. However, everyone could actually see it clearly.
Seeing everyone leaning towards the marriage tree, Chen Nian put away his pen, got up, and walked towards the ancient tree.
He figured he'd find a secluded corner to hang it up so tourists wouldn't find it later. Hanging up the names of five female guests by himself would definitely make him infamous and cause him trouble.
"Chen Nian, what did you write?"
Li Tian suddenly called out to him, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
"Just now at the entrance, Chen Nian asked the master if he could write down his wishes. He must have written down his wishes," someone casually remarked.
Everyone nodded, curious about what kind of wish he would write down.
Zhou Yu's gaze fell on the wooden plaque in his hand, and she reminded him, "By the way, if you write any of our names on it, you should let us know in advance."
Chen Nian paused slightly, glanced down at the wooden sign in his hand filled with writing, and asked helplessly, "Do I really have to say it?"
"Huh? So you really wrote about one of us?" Tang Xi seemed slightly surprised, casually guessing, "I didn't realize it, it should be Liu Ting, right?"
Xia Yao gently raised her hand, a faint smile on her face: "Then here's the question: Li Tian wrote Liu Ting's name, and Chen Nian also wrote Liu Ting's name. Whose name should the God of Marriage listen to?"
"That depends on who Liu Ting writes down." Zhou Yu's beautiful eyes darted around as she looked at Liu Ting beside her.
Liu Ting was speechless and waved her hand: "We've only known each other for three days, why would I write a boy's name on the sign? You're overthinking it."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded slightly and stopped paying attention to what Liu Ting had written. In fact, apart from Li Tian and Su He, they really couldn't have done such a thing.
Soon, everyone voluntarily revealed their secrets, and the result was unexpected.
After going around once, only Li Tian and Su He wrote down the names of the female guests.
The two exchanged a glance, their expressions simultaneously crumbling.
So, among the entire audience, only the two of them were truly serious and superstitiously believed in the marriage tree, which was somewhat awkward.
"Chen Nian probably didn't write it either, right?" Su He looked at Chen Nian, trying to find a companion.
Chen Nian's lips moved, trying to bluff his way out, but he had no way to explain himself.
He simply reached out and handed over the peach wood plaque.
"I've written it all down."
"Did they write everything down?" Suhe was completely bewildered. He stepped closer to take a look and froze on the spot.
Li Tian, who was standing nearby, followed closely behind and, after seeing the contents clearly, couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "Brother, are you here to buy goods?"
The two people's exaggerated reactions instantly piqued everyone's curiosity, and the crowd immediately gathered around.
The moment the names of the five female guests were neatly arranged on the wooden sign, the room fell into a deathly silence.
After a long pause, Qi Feng raised his hand and patted Chen Nian on the shoulder, saying with emotion, "I really misjudged him. He is a role model for us all."
Wen Jingran nodded slowly in agreement.
Silence is the best answer.
The five female guests were all stunned and stood there with complicated expressions.
Once this sign is put up, it'll probably be trending on TV tomorrow, and looking back, it'll definitely be a black mark on my past.
Tang Xi frowned slightly, her usually cool expression now showing a hint of helplessness and displeasure: "Chen Nian, you've gone too far."
Zhou Yu's eyes widened in shock: "You really intend to hang this sign up? You seem so honest, I didn't expect you to be so bold."
Five different gazes fell on him at the same time, and Chen Nian felt a mix of emotions.
They were so focused on completing the task and earning the bonus that they didn't consider the consequences at all, and now they are truly speechless.
He considered for a moment, then calmly said, "Think about it, isn't this a dating reality show? We don't know who we'll be lucky enough to pair up with, so writing down five isn't a problem, is it?"
"It's like telling the God of Love that your romantic relationship might happen among these five people."
"That's exactly what I mean," Chen Nian said seriously, speaking with conviction. "Otherwise, it's only been three days; it's not like you've already decided on someone, right?"
After saying that, he added, "Of course, Li Tian and Su He are special cases."
Li Tian and Su He: "..."
I was inexplicably stabbed, but upon closer reflection, Chen Nian's words made perfect sense.
By each locking onto one person, they've effectively blocked all future possibilities. If they end up not getting along, it will be incredibly awkward.
In an instant, the two men looked at Chen Nian with nothing but admiration.
However, in the eyes of Liu Ting and the others, although the reasoning was barely understandable, it was still awkward to have all of them write their marriage cards on the same person.
After a brief silence, Tang Xi was the first to speak up, turning around and walking towards the ancient tree with her wooden sign, which could be considered an acceptance of the decision.
"What a greedy person." Xia Yao chuckled and pulled Su Xiao away with her.
Zhou Yu's eyes flickered slightly, feeling that this guy didn't really mean it, but she was too lazy to investigate further.
Liu Ting was too lazy to think about it, so she waved her hand and took the wooden sign to find a place to hang it.
In the blink of an eye, only five male guests remained in the courtyard.
Chen Nian let out a heavy sigh.
He didn't consider fate at all; he never thought about dating in a dating reality show.
The top priority is to lie down, slack off, and make money steadily; dating is just a waste of time and a way to slack off.
Soon, everyone dispersed, deliberately avoiding the aerial camera, trying to find a secluded spot to hang up their wooden signs to avoid being zoomed in on or teased by the audience.
Chen Nian looked around and quickly spotted an excellent spot.
Hundreds of peach wood plaques hung densely overhead, layer upon layer, intertwined and overlapping.
Once you blend in, no one can easily find you.
"This tree must have several hundred kilograms of wooden plaques hanging on it, that's too exaggerated."
He muttered to himself, tiptoed, and carefully tied his wooden sign to the layers of knots.
With a few random flicks, the sign with five names on it was instantly lost among a pile of wooden signs, and even he couldn't tell its exact location.
Before long, everyone had hung up their wooden plaques and reunited in front of the ancient tree symbolizing marriage.
The photographer stepped forward and took the first group photo of all ten members since the start of the show "Heartbeat Rhythm".
The people stood in order of their neighbors' positions, with Su Xiao and Liu Ting standing on either side of Chen Nian.
After the group photo was taken, someone suggested, "Let's go down the mountain for lunch?"
"Agreed, we'll take the sightseeing bus down the mountain and never walk the stone steps again."
Everyone agreed that no one wanted to walk back the same way.
The afternoon's itinerary is currently unknown; everything will be arranged by the villa manager.
Li Tian and Su Xiao, who were the first to complete the mountain climbing task, were granted the privilege of free movement, which drew envy from the others.
Suhe sighed softly, full of regret: "We were only a dozen seconds short, otherwise we would have been there first."
The group chatted and laughed as they walked together toward the sightseeing station at the foot of the mountain.
After everyone had left, the monk looked at the photographer who was trying to find the location of the guest's peach wood tablet, clasped his hands together, and murmured, "Everything is predestined..."
Photographer: "Does that mean we're not meant to be?" After a search, the photographers who were looking for close-ups could only leave helplessly.
