Desire! This Romance Is Overflowing with Ambiguous Atmosphere! So Sweet! - Chapter 10

The day of the dating show’s premiere arrived quickly.

The guests boarded flights and headed to the first filming location, Yalan Island, situated at the southernmost tip of the country.

As a top-tier S+ blockbuster variety show on Matcha TV, the previous two seasons had already earned the title of “Gossip God Show” among netizens for uncovering plenty of juicy stories. Every year it aired, it trended on social media.

This season was no exception.

Moreover, with the star power of Wen Shiwu and Yu Zheng, along with the recent scandal buzz, the anticipation was sky-high.

Thus, an hour before Scandalous Lovers officially premiered, the number of pre-registered viewers had already surpassed 30 million!

Netizens eagerly waited to get the first-hand gossip.

When the live stream began, tens of millions of viewers flooded into the broadcast simultaneously, nearly crashing Matcha TV’s servers!

Fortunately, the signal stabilized in the end.

The camera cut precisely to the off-site observation panel, where the guests gradually came into the audience’s view.

Luo Xuan greeted everyone with a sweet smile: “Hi, everyone! I’m this season’s observer, Luo Xuan.”

[Ahhh Luo Xuan, my baby!!!]

[So happy! Even though I knew Luo Xuan would be an observer, I still can’t stop smiling when I see her!]

[Baby looks even sweeter today!] [

Is sis here to expose that Wen someone?]

[Watching the live stream the other day broke my heart! Wen is definitely going to show her true colors in this dating show!]

The observers could see the live comments because they not only had to comment on the guests’ behavior in real-time but also interact with the audience.

Luo Xuan couldn’t help but curl her lips in satisfaction.

But she didn’t voice her thoughts.

The camera then shifted to the person beside her. When the close-up landed on his face, all the netizens were stunned.

[Holy crap!! It’s actually…]

Jiang Ran sat on the sofa with a sour expression.

He wore a fluorescent color-blocked jacket that stood out starkly against the studio’s backdrop, his hair still dyed the same blue as before, and a silver necklace hung casually over his inner shirt.

He looked thoroughly displeased.

Facing the camera, he sat slouched, legs spread wide, and lifted his chin to deliver a perfunctory introduction:

“Yeah, I’m this season’s observer, Jiang Ran.”

The comments section instantly exploded with laughter.

[Hahaha it’s actually Jiang Ran!]

[This guy looks so pissed, like he’s being forced to work! Who even dragged him here?]

[I’m literally dying of laughter!]

[Bro Ran, if you’re being held hostage, blink twice.]

Jiang Ran glanced at the live comments, his eyelids drooping.

He blinked twice, looking utterly defeated.

The audience erupted into merciless laughter again, boldly voicing their speculations,

[Hahaha it must be Yu Zheng! It has to be Yu Zheng’s doing!]

[True brothers share hardships, I go on a dating show, you sit on the observer panel. Let’s make sure neither of us has it easy.]

[But speaking of which, since Bro Ran and Yu Zheng are so close, he must know a lot about the Dimple Girl, right? Maybe we’ll finally get some big revelations this time!]

Everyone: !!!

Yu Zheng’s “white moonlight” was shrouded in mystery, and everyone was curious about the story behind it. They couldn’t help but rub their hands in anticipation.

There were only three guests on the observer panel this time.

The other one was a lesser-known actress, Lin Xingyou, a fangirl at heart. Everyone knew she was a fan of the movie emperor, Shengyi.

But her fame was limited.

After a brief greeting to the audience, her screen time quickly ended.

The program displayed a subtitle on the screen: [The fourth guest is on their way, shrouded in mystery…]

The audience didn’t pay much attention.

After all, the observation panel had never been the highlight of Rumor Lovers. Everyone was far more excited for the main segment!

Fortunately, the production team knew what the viewers wanted.

After introducing the observation panel guests, the camera abruptly cut to the highly anticipated main segment.

A gentle and radiant figure was the first to appear on screen.

Even from behind.

Fans quickly recognized her.

[Ahhh! That butterfly back! That slender waist! The first one on screen has to be my girl!]

[She really kept her promise and came to the dating show! Sob sob, come here for Mommy to kiss, hug, and cuddle!]

[Wow! My girl looks so beautiful today!]

The camera panned upward.

Sure enough, Wen Shiwu’s face appeared on screen.

Compared to her fresh, makeup-free look during the livestream with Luo Xuan, today she wore a delicate, pure-yet-seductive makeup style.

As the camera zoomed in for a close-up.

Wen Shiwu happened to look up at the lens. Her long, distinct, curled lashes fluttered upward like tiny fans, and her full, beautiful under-eye bags sparkled brightly.

Instantly captivating.

As if realizing the camera was focused on her.

She smiled sweetly, revealing two small dimples: “Hello, everyone! We meet again!”

[Ahhhhhhh! So beautiful! So gorgeous!]

[Help! A beauty overload! Those two little dimples always hit me right in the heart!]

[Who wouldn’t be moved by this? Even Yu Zheng would have his heart racing like crazy if he spent day and night with her!]

[Wen fans, stop trying to ride on others’ coattails! Watch out or your idol’s sasaeng image will be exposed and she’ll get humiliated! No one wants to be around a jinx with a racing heart. My brother is here to clear up the rumors!]

The fans from both sides clashed, sparks flying.

But Wen Shiwu couldn’t see the barrage of comments. She had no idea how chaotic the livestream had become.

She just looked at the cameraman in confusion: “What’s next on the agenda? Where should I go now?”

The cameraman pointed to the side.

Wen Shiwu turned her gaze and indeed spotted an arrow not far away, seemingly pointing toward a separate studio.

“Thank you!” She was always polite.

After sweetly thanking the cameraman, she picked up the hem of her dress without hesitation and walked over.

Meanwhile, director Shi Ke was closely monitoring the screen.

As soon as Wen Shiwu stepped into the studio, the director’s robotic voice sounded: “Wen Shiwu,”

Wen Shiwu stood in the designated spot.

Hearing the command, she glanced around curiously, taking in the studio’s surroundings, only to find it completely empty.

The robotic voice spoke again: “Are you ready to face the rumor challenge?”

At that moment, Wen Shiwu had no idea what danger awaited her.

She nodded: “I’m ready.”

The camera captured her clear, deer-like eyes: confident, pure, and composed, without a hint of guilt.

Even her two small dimples were unbearably sweet.

But the very next second.

The entire livestream screen abruptly went black, and a loud noise erupted without warning.

Followed immediately by Wen Shiwu’s scream:

“Ahhh!!!”

One moment, the audience was captivated by the girl’s sweet smile; the next, they were startled by the sudden turn of events.

[What the hell! What happened?]

[Why did the screen go black? Why all the secrecy when it’s a livestream? I want to see! I want to see!]

[Did something happen? That scream from my girl was so piercing, it felt like my heart was being wrenched out!]

[I suddenly remembered the terrifying scenes from the previous two seasons! Ahhh, is this the hell-level interrogation segment? Damn director, don’t bully my girl in the very first episode!]

The live stream signal cut off.

Wen Shiwu’s fans were frantic with worry. Even Jiang Ran gasped sharply, “What’s going on? Did the camera break?”

Luo Xuan, who had been an observer in the previous two seasons, simply smiled. “Don’t worry, it won’t involve any personal danger. You’ll see soon enough.”

Jiang Ran furrowed his brows and continued watching the live stream.

Sure enough, the signal quickly returned, but the perspective no longer focused on Wen Shiwu. Instead, the camera captured a striking figure with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.
