Can You Believe It? I Ran into My Ex on a Dating Variety Show - Chapter 30

The last phone landed in He Xingzhi’s hand.

Xiao Huahua spun around and said, “Brothers, please send the name of your desired date to the designated account now.”

The expressions of the eight guests appeared somewhat uneasy. Yan Jin was the first to finish sending his choice and return the phone to Xiao Huahua.

• • “Movie King Yan was actually the first to choose! It seems he had a favorite candidate in mind long ago.”

• • “Who could it be? Could it be his childhood rival, Xie Yuanzhou?”

• • “Impossible. I still have the video of those two fighting saved on my phone.”

• • “I have not seen Movie King Yan interact much with anyone these past two days, have I?”

• • “My blind guess is Shi Yu. Shi Yu is the most beautiful person here.”

• • “It could also be Liu Xiuxiu. Did Xiuxiu’s cooking capture Movie King Yan’s heart? Xiuxiu’s food is so delicious.”

• • “That is possible. Movie King Yan eats two bowls of rice every time; he seems to really like Xiuxiu’s cooking.”

The second to finish was Zhang Bin. The third was Zhao Yiliang, and the fourth was Liu Xiuxiu.

Livestream Comments:

• • “I thought Xiuxiu would be the first. After all, he has always shown that he likes He Xingzhi.”

• • “I also thought Liu Xiuxiu would choose He Xingzhi without hesitation.”

• • “But He Xingzhi would definitely not choose Liu Xiuxiu, right? Since he will not, this pair cannot become a dating pair.”

• • “I guess Zhang Bin will choose Liu Xiuxiu. Liu Xiuxiu will either choose He Xingzhi or play it safe and choose Zhang Bin.”

• • “Zhang Bin is also very excellent. He is an Olympic champion who brought glory to the country.”

• • “He looks good too. Though a bit rugged, the strong man versus sweet Omega vibe is really something.”

• • “His stamina must be great too!”

The fifth was Xie Yuanzhou, and the sixth was Su Jingxi.

Shi Yu chose Su Jingxi. After sending the name, he handed over the phone. At the same time he handed it in, He Xingzhi also happened to submit his phone.

With everyone having finished their selections, the results were about to be announced. Before the announcement, Yan Jin inserted a live advertisement for the sponsor. The comments were flooded with thanks to the sponsor. Once the advertisement ended, the official results were ready. The audience in the comments was even more nervous than the participants.

Livestream Comments:

• • “I bet Zhang Bin and Liu Xiuxiu will become the first dating pair.”

• • “What about Shi Yu and He Xingzhi? I feel like this pair could work. Can the production team push them? I want to ship it.”

• • “Stop dreaming. He Xingzhi would never agree to a forced pairing. When one of his idol dramas became a hit, he was supposed to fake a relationship with the lead actress to boost the show’s popularity. The actress agreed, but He Xingzhi refused. He was unwilling to form a pairing with anyone.”

• • “I remember that. It was a big deal then. Many people speculated if He Xingzhi was in a secret relationship.”

• • “At that time, the actress tried to pressure him into a pairing by saying ambiguous things during a live interview. Any other male artist might have just gone along with it, but He Xingzhi, known as the straightest man in the industry, made it clear right then and there. He did not leave a single chance for ambiguity.”

• • “He Xingzhi really does not act flirtatious with any female artists, and he does not with male artists either. So I was very surprised when he joined a dating show, especially a BL one. Did the director save his life?”

• • “The reason He Xingzhi joined this show remains a mystery.”

• • “There is another person I do not understand either.”

• • “Who? Shi Yu?”

• • “Yes. If He Xingzhi is a mystery, Shi Yu is another. He debuted earlier than He Xingzhi and became famous early, but he is the only one who has shown everyone through his actions that he is indifferent to fame and fortune. He does not seek wealth, reputation, or applause. He always knows what he wants and never forces himself to do anything that makes him unhappy.”

• • “I would not be surprised if Shi Yu completely disappeared from the public eye at any moment.”

Xiao Huahua announced the results. Her shocked voice rang out in the living room: “Oh my goodness! One guest has received votes from three people! Who could it be?”

Su Jingxi looked at Shi Yu, gently nudged him with his arm, and whispered, “Brother Shi, it must be you. I chose you too.”

Shi Yu gave a faint smile and said, “It is not me.”

Su Jingxi’s eyes widened. “How is that possible? You are so good looking; who would not want to go on a date with you? I bet even He Xingzhi wants to date you.”

Shi Yu replied, “It will not be me, but I can guess who it is.”

Su Jingxi asked, “Is it Liu Xiuxiu? Or He Xingzhi? It is possible; although he has a bad temper, his conditions in every aspect make him a top tier choice in the gay community.”

Shi Yu smiled. “We will find out in a moment.”

Xiao Huahua said, “Yan Jin, Xie Yuanzhou, and Shi Yu all chose the same person! Can everyone guess who it is?”

Livestream Comments:

• • “It is either Liu Xiuxiu or Su Jingxi.”

• • “If it were Liu Xiuxiu, would there not be a vote from Zhang Bin too?”

• • “It cannot be Liu Xiuxiu. It must be Su Jingxi. Shi Yu is a neat freak and does not like physical contact; only a few people can get close to him. Su Jingxi is a special one. I guess it is because of Su Jingxi’s personality, so Shi Yu would definitely choose him.”

• • “Then why did Xie Yuanzhou and Yan Jin also choose Su Jingxi?”

• • “First, we know Xie Yuanzhou and Yan Jin are childhood rivals. So it is possible that one of them liked Su Jingxi, and the other stepped in to sabotage him out of spite.”

• • “You have read too many novels.”

• • “Su Jingxi has a great personality and is good looking. He is a sunny, wealthy second generation kid with low sensitivity; being with him is so easy. It is great.”

• • “I will support Su Jingxi and Shi Yu. The chemistry between them is quite good.”

Xiao Huahua announced, “It is Su Jingxi! Did anyone guess correctly?”

Su Jingxi jumped up immediately, excited. “Brother Shi, does that mean we are a dating pair now? Can I go out and play with you?”

Shi Yu nodded. “Yes.”

He Xingzhi stood some distance away, his face dark and somber.

Xiao Huahua continued, “One more pair was successful! That would be Liu Xiuxiu and Zhang Bin! Congratulations to these two pairs!”

Yan Jin’s expression also turned visibly sour. Xie Yuanzhou, on the other hand, held a spectator’s attitude and appeared somewhat gleeful.

Zhao Yiliang asked, “What about the rest of us?”

Xiao Huahua replied, “The rest of you will draw lots!”

Everyone was speechless.
