Dilraba was completely dumbfounded.

Looking at Deng Zhe lying on the ground before her, she suddenly felt a pang of pain in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Deng Zhe..." she murmured, her voice trembling.

The next second, she staggered toward Deng Zhe, her knees buckled, and she knelt down beside him.

She reached out, wanting to touch him but not daring to use force, and only gently pushed his shoulder.

"Deng Zhe? What... what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!!" Her voice was choked with sobs, and large tears fell down, landing on Deng Zhe's sleeve.

Deng Zhe, lying on the ground with his face pressed against the ground, was still wondering to himself whether this "final performance" was a bit too much.

Suddenly, he heard Reba's voice, which sounded like she was really crying, felt the force of her push, and felt the wetness on the ground nearby. He was stunned.

This girl...really cried?

His first instinct was to open his eyes, sit up, and tell her it was all an act, and not to cry.

Before he could move, he heard Reba sniffle and choke out, "Then...then I'll keep you company."

What?

Before Deng Zhe could react, he heard two spraying sounds: "biu! biu!"

Immediately afterwards, a soft, warm body gently pressed against his back.

Dilraba wrapped her arms around his shoulders and rested her head in his chest, remaining still.

Deng Chao, holding a water gun, stared in disbelief at the scene before him.

Deng Zhe was "shot" and fell to the ground, dramatically delivering his "last words." Dilraba instantly broke down in tears, rushing to his side and crying out.

Then, before he could even recover from the melodramatic scene, Dilraba unexpectedly used her own water gun to spray her own name tag!

Then she lay down on Deng Zhe!

What... what's going on? A double suicide? A suicide pact on the spot?! Then what am I?

Deng Chao stared, mouth agape, at the two people piled on the ground, then at the water gun in his hand, feeling a bit bewildered.

"No..." he blinked, "You two... are you kidding me?! Are you messing with me?! How did I become the villain?!!"

"Pfft!" Dilraba finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Reba got up, tears still on her face, but her eyes were already curved into crescents.

She looked at Deng Chao, her tone slightly mischievous: "Brother Chao, how was my acting just now? Was it better than my assistant's?"

Deng Zhe also sat up and looked at Deng Chao with Reba.

Looking at the two of them, Deng Chao felt a lump in his throat.

He pointed at the two people in front of him, saying irritably, "Screw you guys! You think you can play with me like I'm nothing? I'm leaving!!!"

At that moment, in the studio, the four hundred audience members watching on the screen erupted in enthusiastic applause and laughter.

"Well done!!!"

"Dilraba's tears just fall like that, amazing!"

"A double suicide!!! This is a double suicide! The best scene of the day, bar none!"

"The trendy guy was dumbfounded, hahaha!"

"Deng Zhe and Reba, it's a shame you two aren't acting!"

In the corridor, the loudspeaker blared again, "Deng Zhe, Dilraba, OUT! Deng Zhe, Dilraba, OUT!"

Deng Zhe patted his pants and stood up, then reached out and pulled Reba, who was still sitting on the ground, up as well.

Deng Zhe took out a tissue from his pocket and carefully wiped away Reba's tears.

"Why would you commit suicide? Don't you want to play anymore?"

Reba let him wipe her, "I'm a little tired. And... you're already eliminated, so I don't want to play anymore."

She spoke so naturally, as if it were the simplest of reasons.

Deng Zhe wiped her face clean, crumpled up the used tissue, and accurately threw it into the trash can a few meters away.

He nodded. "Let's go then. There should be food in the lounge; let's grab something to eat."

Upon hearing about food, Dilraba immediately nodded, "Great! Great!"

Neither of them mentioned the performance that had been mixed with real emotion, as if it were just a slightly funny little episode in the game.

Deng Zhe naturally extended his hand. Reba looked at his hand and placed it on his.

He took her hand and turned to walk towards the lounge.

The lighting in the lounge was softer, and there were several sofas and armchairs inside.

Zheng Kai and Li Chen were sitting on one of the sofas, gesturing with their heads down, as if they were reviewing why they had been eliminated.

Upon hearing the door open, the two looked up simultaneously.

Seeing that it was Deng Zhe and Reba who came in, Li Chen leaned back:

"Oh, look who's here! Isn't this our dear Bonnie and Clyde thieves?"

He then pointed at the two men with a resentful expression: "You two, you're really something! Teaming up to pin me to the ground and kill me!"

Dilraba hid behind Deng Zhe, covering her mouth and laughing, because he was staring at her.

Zheng Kai looked at Reba with an admiring expression, "Reba! I trusted you so much!! You actually lied to me!! I believed you were a good person, and you turned around and eliminated me??"

He clutched his chest, "My heart is broken. I'll never trust women again!"

Li Chen, standing nearby, scoffed, "Give me a break! When haven't you ever said that? And when have you ever escaped death at the hands of a woman?"

Reba stuck out her tongue and pushed Deng Zhe forward without hesitation: "It was all Deng Zhe's idea! He said... he said you trust women the most!"

After saying that, she nodded vigorously in a cute way, trying to make her point.

Li Chen and Zheng Kai exchanged a glance, then stood up from the sofa together.

Li Chen stretched his neck, Zheng Kai clenched his fists, and the two walked towards Deng Zhe with malicious smiles on their faces.

"Xiao Zhe..." Li Chen squinted and drew out his words.

"Zhe..." Zheng Kai called out as well, closing in step by step.

Deng Zhe immediately took two steps back, raised his hands, and put on a smile.

He tried to evoke some brotherly affection with words: "Brothers! Both of you brothers! Calm down, calm down! This isn't my fault!!"

Li Chen had already walked up to him, his large frame exuding an imposing aura: "Then tell me, who's to blame? Hmm? Blame ourselves for being too foolish and naive?"

Deng Zhe blinked, his expression innocent: "Difficult, isn't it?"

Zheng Kai chuckled, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked: "You... say that again, try it?"

Deng Zhe quickly pointed to himself and Reba, "Brother Chen, Brother Kai, do you guys remember when Reba and I were eliminated not long after the game started?"

Li Chen thought for a moment and nodded: "That's right. And then?"

He still doesn't understand what this has to do with the present.

Deng Zhe patiently explained, "Then think about the rules: what happens if an audience member attacks a person who isn't the target?"

"Both will be eliminated." A voice came from the side.

Everyone turned to look and saw Lu Han sitting on the other side, holding a guitar.

He hadn't said much until now, then he put down his guitar and said, "That's how Zhu Lan and I ended up."

Wang Zulan sat next to him, helplessly shrugged, confirming Lu Han's statement.

"So what??" The big black bull, whose mind was full of muscles, still didn't understand.

"Brother!" Deng Zhe looked at Li Chen pitifully, "How about we get some brain training?"

"What did you say??" Li Chen clenched his fist again. "Open it, get them!!"

"ah…………!!"
