28: New event

Bai Tingxin was busy calculating in her mind. She regretted not having paired up with Lu Qingyu for activities earlier, missing out on so many opportunities to ship a CP.

This time, she wanted to make an effort.

"Qingyu, we were partners last time, but it's a pity we didn't have the chance to do activities together. I hope there will be another opportunity."

Bai Tingxin had been quite direct, and Lu Qingyu understood the implication behind her words, but he didn't care.

"Hmm, is that all? If there's nothing else, I'm heading up."

Lu Qingyu's indifferent attitude made Bai Tingxin feel frustrated. She turned back, fuming. What does this mean? Is he going to write to me or not? So annoying! If it weren't for his popularity, who would even bother with him?

Yao Yiyi, standing to the side, witnessed the whole process of Bai Tingxin being rebuffed and lowered her head to smile.

Bai Tingxin had treated Lu Qingyu so poorly before—anyone could tell she was dissatisfied with him—yet she still wanted Lu Qingyu to choose her?

Yao Yiyi lowered her head and began writing her own letter.

From the moment PD Zhao announced the start of letter writing until the guests began, only ten minutes had passed, but the netizens were already in an uproar.

"It looks like Bai Tingxin will write to Lu Qingyu this time."

"Wen Minmin will definitely write to He Chenguang, I can guarantee that."

"You don't need to guarantee it; the way Wen Minmin looks at He Chenguang is practically sparking with electricity. Everyone can see it."

"I'm curious who Lü Qing will write to. Although he is very enthusiastic towards Yao Yiyi, he doesn't seem to treat Bai Tingxin badly either."

"Doesn't Yao Yiyi like Lü Qing? She shouldn't change her mind."

"What about Kaluo? Her feelings for Su Jing are just average, so she probably won't give it to Su Jing, right?"

"I'm just curious who Lu Qingyu will end up writing to?"

Fifteen minutes later, all the letters were in place.

The eight guests went downstairs, opening their respective mailboxes with anxious hearts.

The first to bounce downstairs to open the mailbox was He Chenguang. He had written to Yao Yiyi, and before writing the letter, he had even sent her a text message, confessing his feelings first, hoping that Yao Yiyi would choose him.

Opening the mailbox, there was only one letter inside. He Chenguang thought it was from Yao Yiyi, and he couldn't hide his grin, but when he opened it and saw it was from Wen Minmin, his expression instantly slumped.

Wen Minmin was sensitive; she immediately realized that He Chenguang didn't like her. She stood to the side, head bowed, picking at her fingers.

The second to open the box was Yao Yiyi, who received one letter. Bai Tingxin had one, Kaluo had one, and Wen Minmin had none.

Su Jing opened his mailbox, expecting at least one, but there were none. Lü Qing also thought he would have at least two, but he didn't receive any either.

Both of them frowned. No way, what's going on? PD Zhao came out at this moment and said:

"Unfortunately, in this round, no one was able to form a CP."

Everyone exchanged glances. The female guests found it unbelievable—none? How could that be?

At this moment, Lu Qingyu slowly opened his mailbox, and surprisingly, there were three letters inside.

"Wow, what kind of miraculous plot twist is this? Clearly, yesterday Lu Qingyu's popularity among the guests was at the bottom, how did he suddenly become so popular?"

"That means, except for Wen Minmin, the other three people all cast their votes for Lu Qingyu."

"This is too dramatic, all three women chose Lu Qingyu."

"Wait, that's not right. All three female guests voted for Lu Qingyu, and Wen Minmin had no letters. That means Lu Qingyu could have formed a CP with any of them. So why did PD Zhao say that no one formed a CP in this round?"

The female guests also realized this problem.

Yao Yiyi: "Director, that's not right, Lu Qingyu has three letters, so who did he vote for?"

PD Zhao gritted his teeth as he took out Lu Qingyu's letter and displayed it for everyone to see.

"To PD Zhao: Please send me the prize money for tonight's performance. Thank you."

The female guests really couldn't help but roll their eyes this time.

No way, are three beautiful women actually less valuable than 200 yuan?

"Pfft, I'm dying of laughter. I'm really curious what expression PD Zhao had when he received that letter."

"You're really something, Lu Qingyu. Did you really forget that you're participating in a love sect?"

"PD Zhao miscalculated. For any show that Lu Qingyu participates in, you must list everything that cannot be done; otherwise, if you don't write it down, it means it can be done."

"Hahaha, hilarious. Lu Qingyu is editing out his own CP pairings; he's too cute."

"What's even funnier is that if not for his performance tonight, maybe Su Jing and Kaluo, or Yao Yiyi and Lü Qing, could have managed to form CPs."

"Does he have a grudge against the Matchmaker? He's such a CP-breaker."

However, there was an even bigger surprise: Lü Qing's letter wasn't written to Yao Yiyi, but to Bai Tingxin instead.

Su Jing's letter wasn't given to Kaluo, but to Yao Yiyi.

Yao Yiyi's letter was from He Chenguang.

"The adult world is truly complicated; I can't understand it, I just can't understand it."

"Lu Qingyu is a breath of fresh air in this chaotic world. I hope you don't change."

"I came here expecting to see sweet love, but instead, I've seen through love in this show."

The next day, the show announced a new task.

Since everyone had almost finished the previous tasks, PD Zhao opened up a new project: a one-day trip to the seaside.

At the seaside, fifty kilometers away from the village, all eight guests gathered.

Today's time was dedicated to helping everyone improve their relationships, and the guests were free to engage in Freedom.

The female guests had put on the most sexy and beautiful bikinis and swimsuits, while the male guests were wearing floral shirts, looking strikingly handsome.

Lü Qing knew how to surf, and he had even borrowed a surfboard, hoping to use this opportunity to show off his charm.

He Chenguang and Su Jing both hovered around Yao Yiyi, trying to curry favor with her.

Lu Qingyu borrowed a set of equipment to go diving.

Seeing that Lu Qingyu was about to leave, Bai Tingxin immediately stepped forward and said: "Qingyu, are you going diving?"

Lu Qingyu paused and replied: "Yes."

Bai Tingxin: "Can you take me with you?"

Lu Qingyu: "Do you know how to dive?"

Bai Tingxin: "I don't, but I've always been very interested and want to learn."

Lu Qingyu thought for a moment—a girl had asked to do an activity together, which was a good opportunity for their relationship to heat up. Surely Lu Qingyu would agree, right? But then Lu Qingyu suddenly said: "There are professional instructors over there."

An instructor not far from Lu Qingyu heard this and immediately came over to sell his services: "Hello, Miss. I am a professional diving instructor with a certification. My skills are very good. I offer one-on-one instruction and supervision. If you sign up now, you get one free lesson for every ten lessons."

Watching Lu Qingyu's dashing retreating figure, Bai Tingxin was practically petrified.

This guy is truly a blockhead.

The cameraman knew how to swim but couldn't dive, so Lu Qingyu took the waterproof equipment and went into the ocean alone.

The audience in the livestream followed Lu Qingyu to witness the beauty of the seabed and many other things under the sea.

"The ocean is so beautiful. There are even sea urchins! Can you eat them directly?"

"These corals are so beautiful. This younger brother's diving skills are excellent."

"Hey, why is there a slipper here? Protecting the ocean is everyone's responsibility; let's not litter, okay?"

Lu Qingyu swam around at the bottom for a while, and feeling it was about time, he started to swim up, when suddenly, someone fell onto him from above.
