Join a Dating Reality Show with the Aloof, Fishing-Style Richest Man - Chapter 36.2

This time during dinner, the director didn’t pull any more stunts; he basically let them act freely. After all, even without a scripted process, the popularity and buzz surrounding these three couples were already very high.

Rather than the production team forcing interactions, it was better to let them follow their own lead, which could create even more topics of conversation.

During the meal, Xu Miaomiao nudged Lu Zhao’s arm, leaned in, and whispered, “What do you usually talk about with President Ji when you’re in bed?”

Lu Zhao: “…”

Lu Zhao looked at Xu Miaomiao with a gaze full of conflict. “Sister, I didn’t expect you to be so perverted—you actually want to pry into other people’s bedroom fun?”

Xu Miaomiao looked anxious and lowered her voice: “Where is your mind going?! Am I not sleeping with my sister (Zhou Jiayan) tonight? I was just thinking of finding some topics to talk about so the atmosphere won’t be awkward!”

She felt she was being very reasonable, okay? She even had to worry about whether her sister would feel awkward sleeping with her.

Hearing this, Lu Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. She glanced at Zhou Jiayan sitting on the other side of Xu Miaomiao and whispered in Xu Miaomiao’s ear: “That’s easy. Like you said, what a great opportunity for the two of you to be alone.”

“Forget talking. The most important thing for you is… seduction~”

Xu Miaomiao’s eyes lit up slightly, and she asked hurriedly, “Then how do I seduce her?”

In her momentary lapse of focus, her voice was a bit loud, and everyone else’s eyes turned toward them.

Xu Miaomiao immediately covered her mouth, her eyes darting around, full of guilt.

Lu Zhao was much calmer than her. She patted Xu Miaomiao’s leg, gave her a look that said “we’ll talk later,” and then very calmly asked the others.

“Why are you looking at us? Aren’t you eating?”

The others: “…”

Ji Zhaoxi glanced sideways at Lu Zhao. She didn’t even need to guess to know that this person must be giving Xu Miaomiao ideas again. Thinking about how these “tricks” hadn’t been used on herself at all, the food in her mouth suddenly lost its flavor.

Meanwhile, Zhou Jiayan swept a glance over Xu Miaomiao and then continued eating her food quietly.

After finishing the meal, the director didn’t forget to remind them to write their “Heartbeat Confession Letters” before going to sleep.

Hearing about the confession letters, Ji Zhaoxi’s and Zhou Jiayan’s expressions remained indifferent, unlike the excited looks of the others.

Lu Zhao wasn’t exactly excited; she was just distressed. She was worried about how she should write this letter to make people believe she actually liked Ji Zhaoxi.

Sigh, being a “licking dog” (devoted follower) is so hard; now she even has to expand into the letter-writing business.

The director left after finishing his announcement. Lu Zhao originally wanted to go upstairs to shower, but she was grabbed by Xu Miaomiao, who was winking frantically.

Lu Zhao was almost amused by her. It wasn’t that she had forgotten; she just wanted to shower and get comfortable first. But seeing how anxious Xu Miaomiao was, she pulled her toward the outside of the courtyard.

Last time her conversation with Qiao Wei was overheard, so the inside of the courtyard was definitely not safe.

Once outside, without letting the cameraman follow, and under the dim light, the two of them crouched on the ridge of the field not far from the courtyard. With such an open view, surely no one would come close to eavesdrop?

Seeing no one around, Xu Miaomiao said hurriedly, “Quick, tell me, how do I seduce her?”

Lu Zhao looked at her and said seriously, “First of all, this seduction definitely cannot be like what you did before—rushing up and hugging or kissing people. That can easily be classified as sexual harassment!”

“The seduction we’re talking about is a gradual process. You have to seduce her imperceptibly.”

Xu Miaomiao blinked her large, confused eyes and said sincerely, “Keep it simple. Specifically, how should I seduce her? What you’re saying is too abstract; I don’t understand.”

Lu Zhao: “…”

Fine, she’d stop acting profound.

“Like this: inadvertent physical contact. It’s easier to create that electric feeling~”

Xu Miaomiao rubbed her chin. “I’ve had a lot of physical contact with her before.”

Lu Zhao: “…Sister, your physical contact was too obvious. It was so obvious it looked like you wanted to execute her on the spot.”

Xu Miaomiao’s eyes widened, and she said with a look of pleasant surprise, “Sister, you’re amazing! Yes, I really wanted to execute her on the spot!”

Lu Zhao: “…” Fine, she knew it.

“But you can’t do that!” Lu Zhao advised earnestly. “Your sister’s situation is special. she definitely needs time to get over the hurdle in her heart. Your previous large-scale physical contact invisibly put pressure on her, making her avoid you more.”

Xu Miaomiao opened her mouth to say something, but eventually closed it somewhat dejectedly and said dryly, “Then tell me what I should do.”

“For example, when you’re sleeping in the same bed, you can say: ‘I might need to turn over while sleeping, I might accidentally touch you.'”

“Originally, it wouldn’t be a big deal if you touched her, but after you say that, she will definitely start to care! Then for every subsequent touch, she’ll be paying attention in her heart!”

“And since she knows your feelings, at the same time, she’ll wonder if you’re doing it on purpose or by accident.”

“Doesn’t that pluck at her heartstrings?”

Xu Miaomiao’s eyes widened slightly, and she looked at Lu Zhao with admiration, sighing, “Sister, why is it that even though we’re both ‘licking dogs,’ you know so much?”

Lu Zhao felt a bit proud and hummed in her heart—she didn’t want to think about how much she had sacrificed for this job in the past.

“Is there more? Is there more?” Xu Miaomiao pressed.

“Yes. Since you two are sleeping together, you have to choose your pajama style carefully!”

“Huh?” Xu Miaomiao was puzzled.

“You’re so stupid!” Lu Zhao, frustrated by the lack of progress, felt like knocking some sense into her. She continued, “After you shower, you can wear sexier pajamas!”

“Oh~” Xu Miaomiao suddenly realized.

“Seduction by appearance!”

Lu Zhao nodded vigorously!

“Exactly. But this seduction shouldn’t be as obvious as before. No matter how sexy you dress, remember not to intentionally pose or flirt in front of her!”

“You need to let your charm flow naturally and let her be unconsciously attracted to you!”

Xu Miaomiao nodded with a look of half-understanding, then became determined.

“Don’t worry, sister! I will definitely win her over!”

Lu Zhao didn’t doubt her. Given Zhou Jiayan’s temperament, she probably just needed time to accept it.

“Sister, you’re so good to me, coming up with strategies for me.” Xu Miaomiao held Lu Zhao’s hand, looking moved. “If you have any problems with Ji Zhaoxi, you can tell me too! I’ll give you ideas!”

“Um… then I’ll thank you in advance,” Lu Zhao said with some difficulty.

Xu Miaomiao giving her ideas? She didn’t even need to think to know they would be the very bold kind.

After the two finished exchanging “tips” and went back, they saw Qiao Yang still waiting in the hall like a hunter. Only this time, he wasn’t waiting for Lu Zhao; he was actually trying to win over Xu Miaomiao.

Lu Zhao’s face was full of question marks at this sight, but she didn’t say anything. She gave Xu Miaomiao a “good luck” look and quickly ran upstairs.

Qiao Yang eagerly handed a fruit plate to Xu Miaomiao and asked her what fruit she liked.

Xu Miaomiao didn’t take the bait. She just folded her arms, glanced sideways at Qiao Yang, and snorted, “Speak up, what’s your plan, kid?”

Qiao Yang wasn’t intimidated by her attitude and said with a flattering smile, “Aren’t you and Zhaozhao good sisters? So I wanted to get close to you.”

“How do you think I can win Zhaozhao over?”

Hearing this, Xu Miaomiao suddenly understood. “So you want to pursue Lu Zhao by flattering me?”

Qiao Yang nodded frantically! He almost had a tail wagging behind him.

Xu Miaomiao sneered and said coldly, “Haven’t you heard the saying? Don’t easily approach the target’s best friend.”

“Huh?” Qiao Yang was confused. But when others taught him, didn’t they say he could take a indirect route?

Xu Miaomiao patted his shoulder. “You want me to help you chase my sister, but my sister doesn’t like you. Wouldn’t that be equivalent to asking me to betray my sister?”

“To betray my sister for a man—who do you think you are?”

Xu Miaomiao originally stood up to leave, but after thinking about it, she gave a kind reminder: “You flatter me, but have you ever considered that if I don’t like you, you’ll be even less likely to catch my sister?”

“And if I did like you, wouldn’t the result be even worse? You’d have provoked me and still not caught the person you like.”

Finally, Xu Miaomiao shook her head. “When chasing someone, don’t think about taking shortcuts through the people around them.”

“A shortcut might also mean a quick death.”

After Xu Miaomiao left, Qiao Yang’s shoulders slumped, his face full of dejection.

At that moment, Lu Xunyou sat beside him and said softly, “Senior, some things can’t be forced. Look back—maybe the right person is right beside you?”

Hearing this, Qiao Yang looked up at him. For the first time, he observed his features seriously. He was undoubtedly very delicate-looking and had an air of obedience.

Qiao Yang was stunned for a moment, but only for a moment. Then he snorted, “Then what’s the difference between you and me? Isn’t it all forced?”

Lu Xunyou was taken aback, smiled, and didn’t speak again.

Meanwhile, upstairs, Lu Zhao was looking for her change of clothes. Ji Zhaoxi had already prepared the bath water for her, and she couldn’t wait to soak and get comfortable.

Tangyuan circled around her feet. Before entering the bathroom, Lu Zhao glanced at Ji Zhaoxi. Seeing her still working seriously, she couldn’t help but sigh in her heart.

Why did she feel that Ji Zhaoxi was working harder and harder?

After taking a comfortable bath, Lu Zhao practically crawled out of the bathroom. Once she relaxed, exhaustion crept up, and her waist felt like it couldn’t even straighten up.

Ji Zhaoxi looked up at her, sighed softly, and said, “Go lie down on the bed. I’ll rub some medicated oil on you.”

“Huh?”

Lu Zhao looked at Ji Zhaoxi in surprise. She didn’t expect her to be so kind—this boss was practically a “Person Who Moved China” (an award for altruism).

“Babe, tell me the truth, were you sent by the heavens to rescue me?”

Lu Zhao was moved. How much incense had she burned in her past life to meet a boss like Ji Zhaoxi in this life?

Ji Zhaoxi glanced at her. “You can still talk so much; it’s not painful enough?”

Lu Zhao immediately shut up, crawled onto the bed, and lay face down. Tangyuan also came over to lie beside her, turning its head to stare at her.

Lu Zhao stuck her tongue out at it.

Watching them, Ji Zhaoxi’s expression softened. Both were very cute.

She lifted Lu Zhao’s pajama top, revealing her smooth waist and back. The waistline was fluid and without any excess fat, showing how strictly Lu Zhao managed her figure.

Ji Zhaoxi poked her waist with her fingertip. “Is it sore?”

“Hiss, definitely!” Lu Zhao bared her teeth. Now that she was lying down, she didn’t dare move her waist casually; it felt painfully sharp with every movement.

Ji Zhaoxi didn’t speak again. She poured the medicated oil into her palm, rubbed her hands together to generate heat, and then pressed her palm against Lu Zhao’s waist.

“Hiss—”

Lu Zhao squinted, feeling half-pleasure and half-pain. Especially when Ji Zhaoxi’s hands pressed down, Lu Zhao’s heart trembled for a moment.

The temperature was so high, and the palms were so soft, yet they were very powerful when massaging her.

Lu Zhao felt like she had died and come back to life.

“Meow~”

Tangyuan watched curiously from the side and stepped forward to lick Lu Zhao’s face.

Lu Zhao reached out to rub its head, but she couldn’t control a few soft moans escaping her mouth. As soon as she made a sound, she immediately shut her mouth and held it back.

That sound was too strange!

The hands massaging Lu Zhao paused slightly. Ji Zhaoxi lowered her eyes to hide her thoughts and continued to massage her carefully with an unchanged expression.

The scent of the medicated oil spread through the air, and Lu Zhao could no longer smell the orange fragrance on Ji Zhaoxi.

It was very strange; every time she was with Ji Zhaoxi, she would subconsciously take a sniff, wanting to make sure she still smelled that way.

Ji Zhaoxi massaged her for over half an hour. Finally, it was Lu Zhao who called a stop. After massaging for so long, Ji Zhaoxi’s hands must be tired.

“Are you better?” Ji Zhaoxi asked with some concern.

Lu Zhao touched her waist. “Much better, thanks, babe~”

Ji Zhaoxi looked at Lu Zhao’s lower back, which was now completely red, and finally patted it, saying, “Your waist… needs more exercise.”

Lu Zhao: “…”

If she didn’t misunderstand, was she saying her waist wasn’t good enough?

Watching Ji Zhaoxi go into the bathroom to wash her hands, Lu Zhao snorted. She had the nerve to say her waist wasn’t good enough—why didn’t she try it herself?

With some difficulty, she turned over and pulled Tangyuan into her arms, whispering to it, “I always feel like your mother is a tsundere! Don’t look at how serious she acts on the surface.”

What kind of serious person confides their secret, hidden thoughts to a cat? And so resentfully, too.

“Meow.”

Tangyuan let out a cry, and it was unclear if it was agreeing or disagreeing, but it knew how to respond to the person speaking at the right time.

When Ji Zhaoxi came out, she saw Lu Zhao whispering something to Tangyuan, and Tangyuan seemed very happy, responding from time to time. The two of them were like a folk song duet.

Ji Zhaoxi glanced at them without saying anything and went to find her own change of clothes. Before entering the bathroom, she said, “Behave yourself. Don’t lead Tangyuan astray.”

Lu Zhao: “…?!”

Her eyes widened, and she shouted in disbelief, “How could I possibly lead it astray!”

Not only were they different species, but she herself was clearly so pure and innocent—how could she lead anyone astray!

Ji Zhaoxi just gave her a faint look, her eyes full of the meaning that she should have some self-awareness.

Lu Zhao: “…”

The world must be isolating her!

“Sigh!”

Lu Zhao sighed. Looking into Tangyuan’s watery blue eyes, she sighed heavily again.

“Tangyuan, oh Tangyuan, why don’t you have a bank account? Otherwise, President Ji would definitely send you money, and then you could ‘sponsor’ (keep) me.”

Looking at Tangyuan’s cat snacks and canned food—that wealthy lifestyle—wasn’t it normal to want to be a “gold digger” for a cat?

Tangyuan rubbed its head against Lu Zhao, let out a soft meow.

Lu Zhao’s heart softened, and she began to hate herself again. How could she be so shameless! She actually fantasized about being sponsored by a cat!

In the bathroom, Ji Zhaoxi didn’t know what Lu Zhao was thinking. After her shower, she looked at the nightgown hanging on the wall, pursed her lips, and finally reached out to take it down. Enduring the shame, she put it on.

She opened the door and walked out.

The moment Lu Zhao looked up, she was completely stunned. Her gaze was blank, and she subconsciously swallowed.

A sexy white silk V-neck camisole nightgown, with translucent lace connections at the V-neck and waist. The length of the nightgown barely reached her thighs; if she bent over, one could easily see what was underneath.

Lu Zhao: “…”

Is she trying to test some kind of effect?

She’s dressed too sexily!
