I was criticized on a dating reality show, but I retaliated and became an internet sensation.

The staff began to pack up the equipment and props on site.

Director Liu stood behind the monitor, looking at the frozen image on the screen, and let out a long sigh of relief, a satisfied smile on his lips.

He picked up the walkie-talkie and whispered, "That's it."

The screen slowly went black, revealing a line of text:

"Thank you for the encounter, thank you for the feeling."

The crowds on the beach gradually dispersed, and the lights went out one by one.

Gu Yan took Shu Zi's hand and slowly walked back along the coastline.

He turned to look at her and said softly, "Let's go home."

Shu Zi glanced at him sideways and smiled, "Okay, let's go home."

A few steps away, Su Yanhuan was tugging at Jiang Yunyou's sleeve, complaining that she was hungry.

A little further ahead, Han Jingxue and Shen Yihuai walked side by side, leaving a trail of deep and shallow footprints behind them.

……

At midnight that night, Director Liu updated his Weibo account for "For Your Heart's Desire" with the following post:

"Heartbeat for You" V:

Many netizens are curious about why the 301 live stream camera frequently "malfunctions." Now, let me reveal the truth. [Images][Videos]

The image is a screenshot of a WeChat conversation, as follows:

Mr. Gu: Turn off the camera in the living room of room 301.

Director Liu: ...Closed again? Mr. Gu, please don't! The netizens are going to scold me again! (crying)

Gu Yan: Guan.

Director Liu: You should withdraw your investment! I quit!!!

Director Liu: "A tough-guy image."

Gu Yan: We can record it, but we can't broadcast it now.

Director Liu: "Okay, here it is."

Director Liu: "Happy GIF."

Director Liu: "Spinning GIF."

Director Liu: Closed (heart emoji)

The video has no sound, only visuals.

The scene shows the living room of apartment 301.

Gu Yan was blow-drying Shu Zi's hair. After saying something to Shu Zi, he took out his phone, tapped a few times, put the phone down, and turned off the hairdryer.

He stood quietly behind her, looked at her for a while, and then said something.

Shu Zi looked up at him, her expression one of shock.

He curled his lips into a smile, leaned down, lifted her chin, and kissed her.

Shu Zi seemed stunned, tilting her head back and passively enduring it.

A moment later, she leaned back slightly and punched his chest with her hand, as if in protest.

He stopped and glanced at her, then put his hands under her armpits and lifted her up onto the back of the sofa.

The phone slipped from her hand, and the image finally focused on the phone lying on the sofa cushion.

[All those who bully Ranyu deserve to be rats]: Ahhhhhh, is this what late-night perks are like?! Thank goodness I'm still awake!!!

【Late Moon and Huai Wind】: Holy crap! So Gu Yanrang turned off the camera in room 301?! I was wondering why it always "malfunctioned" during their crucial moments!

[Director Liu: You should withdraw your investment! I quit! Next second: Okay~ Hahahaha, that's hilarious!]

[Director Liu, how much of your personal stuff have you been hoarding?! Release it all at once! Don't force me to kneel down and beg you!]

[Screeching, that kiss! Does anyone understand? I watched it twenty times, screaming at every single frame! Director Liu, why didn't you finish it?! There's definitely more to come!]

So the live stream was suddenly interrupted that day not because of equipment failure, but because Gu Yan was kissing his wife???

[Gu Yan: Turn off the camera. Director Liu: Okay, boss.]

[Director Liu's outward expression: I quit! In reality: It's already closed (heart emoji)]

[If this video had been broadcast at the time, Weibo would have crashed that very night. Director Liu, you really know how to choose your timing.]

[Director Liu: I've been holding back for so long, I can finally release this!]

[It is suggested that this video be burned onto a disc and permanently preserved as a prized possession of the "For Your Heart's Desire" museum.]

Although Director Liu deleted the post less than ten minutes after posting it, screenshots and screen recordings had already been spread across the entire internet by quick-fingered netizens.

On various platforms' discussion forums, this video was repeatedly reposted and analyzed frame by frame, and along with the WeChat screenshot, it became the most popular material that night.

A Douban group quickly built a thread overnight, with the title prominently displayed:

"The biggest unsolved mystery of 'For You, My Heart Flutter'—the truth behind the 301 camera has finally been revealed."

You wouldn't believe it, but he had something big planned.

He deleted the posts, but he didn't miss a single one of the ones he was supposed to see.

This is the legendary "victory through post deletion".

...Actually, he was mainly afraid that Shu Zi would come and destroy his account, otherwise he could stay online until next year's Chinese New Year.

The night was deeper.

Most of the lights at Yunqi Platinum Hotel have been turned off.

The moonlight streamed through the window like flowing water, and the curtains were gently stirred by the night breeze, casting flickering shadows on the floor.

The three kittens huddled together in their cat bed, fast asleep.

The door to the master bedroom was ajar, from which whispers occasionally escaped, interspersed with intermittent laughter, before gradually fading into silence.

The city lights outside the window gradually went out, and the night, as soft as water, gently covered everything.

……

The next morning, when Shu Zi woke up, she found that Gu Yan was no longer by her side.

She reached out and touched the spot next to her; it was still slightly warm.

There was a glass of warm water on the bedside table, with a note pressed under the bottom of the glass.

She picked up the note; it was written in Gu Yan's handwriting:

Good morning, my fiancée.

Shu Zi stared at those words for a long time, then smiled, stuck the note to her chest, turned over and buried her face in the pillow.

Outside the window, the sun is shining brightly.

This book has come to an end. Thank you for your support, companionship, and love along the way.

I've seen many comments from readers asking for a series of articles, and I'm seriously considering that direction.

However, I plan to start with a historical romance novel.

The release date has not yet been finalized, but we aim to publish it before the middle of next month.

Alright, see you again with the new book!
