Green Onions Aren’t Onions: By the way, who is the mystery guest for this variety show?

Love Eating Coriander: Ahhh, I love cats! Looking forward to the guests!

Chili Shoes are People: I heard it’s a very heavyweight figure.

Love Brother: It seems my “Gege” is also participating in this show. Support!

……

Social Animals Aren’t People: They haven’t even released the guest list this time. With such high buzz, the final mystery guest definitely won’t be an ordinary artist.

Love Eating Pig Feed: It’s about to be revealed. Everyone, take a guess!

“Welcome, everyone, to the Cat Cafe Variety Show. First, let’s give a warm welcome to the fans in the live stream,” Zhang Song announced festively, dressed in a pink cat suit. “Next, let us invite our contestants to the stage.”

“First, Number One is Teacher Jing Xianmeng, welcome everyone!”

“Number Two is Teacher Jiang Nannan, welcome everyone!”

“Number Three is Teacher Ying Chen, welcome everyone!”

“Number Four is Teacher Xu Sheng, welcome everyone!”

“Number Five is Teacher Tang Jingran, welcome everyone!”

“Number Six is Teacher Bai Wensheng, welcome everyone!”

“Number Seven is Teacher Tao Shuiyuan, welcome everyone!”

Love Eating Ginger: Teachers One and Two are actually girls!

Love Brother: Ah, I see my Gege! Tao Tao, Sister loves you!

Social Animals Aren’t People: Teacher Number Three is so refined. Slurp slurp, I like him!

Green Onions Aren’t Onions: Teacher Number Four looks like a little puppy! Wow, Teacher Number Five is so striking, I love it! Light up the signal!

Living Thread: I like Teacher Number Six, a gentle gentleman. Love it!

Dreaming of Being a Salted Fish: I like Teachers One and Five. Support!

Riding a Broom to Mars: I like…

Stubborn Donkey: Teacher Number Seven is quite cute.

Red High Heels: Who is the mystery guest?

“It seems everyone has a teacher they like in their hearts. Now, let us invite our mystery guest for this session.”

“3, 2, 1!”

As soon as the curtain was drawn, the screen was terrifyingly filled with comments!

Three Eyes: Holy crap! Holy crap! Daddy! Why are you here! Ahhh! So excited.

Dreaming of Being a Salted Fish: Hubby! Hubby! It’s actually you!

Red High Heels: My god, let me kiss you!

Social Animals Aren’t People: Hubby, I feel human again! Wuhu!!!

Green Onions Aren’t Onions: Ahhh, Father, I forgive you for not producing anything for half a year!!!

……

The red, green, blue, and purple comments completely blocked the figure behind them.

“Hello everyone, I am Gong Yingxiao.” Gong Yingxiao faced the camera with a faint smile. “Thank you all for your love, and I understand your excitement. But this variety show is not a one-man show. I hope everyone can find a teacher they like during this program.”

“Thank you, everyone.”

As expected of a Film Emperor, his influence was extraordinary. As soon as he finished speaking, the comments noticeably quieted down. Although there were still many, the full picture was finally visible.

“Thank you all for your love for Teacher Gong and the Cat Cafe Variety Show. Next, our program involves getting close to the cats, grooming them, and bathing them,” Zhang Song continued, hosting. “Now, I’ll give the floor to our eight teachers. Please complete your pairings within five minutes.”

“Once a team is formed, we do not allow switching. The two teachers who form a team will need to complete all future segments of the show together.”

“Now, teachers, please begin pairing up.”

Gong Yingxiao was standing right next to Tao Shuiyuan. Tao Shuiyuan immediately said, “Teacher Gong, why don’t we team up?”

Gong Yingxiao looked over toward Tang Jingran’s side, his expression indifferent. “No rush. You can go look for others to team up with as well.”

Tao Shuiyuan’s face stiffened, and he said uncomfortably, “I’m not in a rush either.”

“Mm.”

After saying that, Gong Yingxiao walked toward Tang Jingran.

“Has Teacher Jingran found a partner yet?” Gong Yingxiao looked at Tang Jingran with a smile.

Tang Jingran was about to say he had already teamed up, but Bai Wensheng, who was beside him, cut him off first.

“Not yet, Teacher Gong.” Bai Wensheng tugged at Tang Jingran’s sleeve. “You two chat first, I’ll go ask over there.”

Tang Jingran: “…”

“I’m not interrupting you, am I?” Gong Yingxiao looked down at Tang Jingran.

“Of course not, Teacher Gong.” Tang Jingran flashed a wide smile. “You came just in time. I happened to be unable to find a partner.”

Rather than being chosen passively, it was better to take the initiative.

He wanted to see exactly what this Film Emperor was up to.

“I’m glad I’m not interrupting.” Gong Yingxiao reached out his hand in a friendly gesture. “Happy pairing, Teacher Jingran.”

“Happy pairing, Teacher Gong.”

Tang Jingran shook his hand.

“OK, time’s up. Teachers who have paired up, please stand together. We will begin our activity shortly.”

“First, our first team consists of our two female teachers, Jing Xianmeng and Jiang Nannan,” Zhang Song continued. “The second team is Bai Wensheng and Teacher Ying Chen. The third team is Xu Sheng and Teacher Tao Shuiyuan.”

“The final team is Tang Jingran and Teacher Gong Yingxiao.”

Love Brother: Tao Tao, Jia You! We believe in you!

Social Animals Aren’t People: Teachers Three and Six are together. Slurp slurp, love it!

Dreaming of Being a Salted Fish: Love seeing the two female teachers together. Heart

Everyone was heatedly discussing their favorite artists until a different comment appeared.

Anonymous: By the way, do the Film Emperor and Teacher Tang Jingran know each other? I feel like the Film Emperor is… enthusiastic and gentle toward Teacher Tang?

Screaming Duck: Ahhh! I noticed it too! We are kindred spirits!

Dreaming of Being a Salted Fish: Brave soul, you said what I didn’t dare to say!

Green Onions Aren’t Onions: Damn, I feel like I can ship this!

“Alright, the teachers have been divided into groups. Now, please carry out the first task.”

“Establish a close relationship with the cats and successfully bathe them. Time limit: two hours.”

“Note that this task will be scored based on the number of cats successfully bathed and the quality of interaction. The team with the lowest score will face a penalty.”

“Good luck, teachers!”

As the host, Zhang Song finished his sentence, a group of various cat breeds emerged from under a curtain.

Since it was a collaborative task, Tang Jingran took the initiative to say, “Teacher Gong, let’s act separately. Each of us will establish a bond with the cats first, and then we will bathe them together.”

Gong Yingxiao looked into Tang Jingran’s dark eyes and smiled softly, “Alright.”

Screaming Duck: It’s not my fault for overthinking! I’ve never seen Father smile so gently. Wuhu!

Anonymous: Replying to the person above, me too! Wuhu.

Tang Jingran was himself a Li Hua cat shapeshifter, so he naturally knew how to quickly build a relationship with cats.

Tang Jingran slowly crouched down and called out a few times to a cat not far away. Hearing the sound, the cat stopped licking its fur, looked at Tang Jingran twice, and slowly walked over.

Just as the cat was about to reach Tang Jingran, it was scooped up by a hand that reached across.

Tang Jingran looked up and met Tao Shuiyuan’s smug expression.

“I’m sorry, Teacher Tang. This cat seems to really like me. You don’t mind, do you?”

Tang Jingran was slightly taller than Tao Shuiyuan. He stood up and looked down at him through narrowed eyes. “I don’t mind. After all, Teacher Tao is still ‘small’ (inexperienced).”

After saying that, Tang Jingran ignored Tao Shuiyuan and quickly went to call the next cat.

Red High Heels: It’s not my fault for overthinking, but is this Teacher Tao targeting Teacher Tang?

Riding a Broom to Mars: I noticed it too. We came for the cats. Can we not do this kind of thing?

Love Eating Ginger: Teacher Tao looks quite cute. Could it be a misunderstanding?

Love Brother: Tao Tao isn’t that kind of person. Is there some kind of mistake?

Coriander Hotpot: Everyone, stop arguing for now. Let’s keep watching.

While Tang Jingran was calling other cats, he kept a constant eye on Tao Shuiyuan’s movements. Every time, he would lure Tao Shuiyuan into trying to grab a cat, only to pick it up himself a step ahead.

As a result, Tao Shuiyuan only had that first cat he had snatched from Tang Jingran.

“Teacher Tao, you need to work harder,” Tang Jingran said with a smile. “Even though you are ‘small,’ our Teacher Jiang Nannan should be even younger than you, and they already have four cats.”

Tang Jingran placed the cats he brought back with Gong Yingxiao’s. Together, the two of them had over a dozen.

Gong Yingxiao noticed the situation on Tang Jingran’s side and asked, “What happened?”

Tang Jingran shook his head. “Nothing, just playing with a ‘kid’.”

As he spoke, Tang Jingran held a Ragdoll cat by its paws next to his face, his eyes curving into a bright smile. “Isn’t that right, Mimi?”

Gong Yingxiao was caught off guard by the sight of that smile; his breath hitched for a moment.

This smile happened to be caught by the camera and was broadcast in real-time. Every netizen watching the show was instantly dazed by the cuteness.

Screaming Duck: Ahhh! My god, so cute! My maiden heart!

Riding a Broom to Mars: Ahhh, no, is this trying to kill me with cuteness!!!

Love Eating Ginger: This person is a cat themselves!!

Social Animals Aren’t People: In one minute, I want all the information on this teacher!

Three Eyes: Replying to the person above, me too!

“Alright, time’s up. Now let us count the number of bathed cats.” Zhang Song took the list organized by his assistant and continued to announce: “Alright, Team One washed a total of six cats, which is quite good.”

“Team Two has seven cats.” He paused for a moment. “Ahem, our Team Three has three cats; there is still a lot of potential.”

“Our Team Four has eleven cats!”

“The champion of this task is Team Four, Tang Jingran and Gong Yingxiao!”

Tang Jingran noticed Tao Shuiyuan’s gaze, raised an eyebrow, and spoke up: “Teacher Tao, there are ten lotus flowers in the pond. I only picked one, so how many lotus flowers can you still pick?”

Tao Shuiyuan didn’t know why math was suddenly involved, but instinctively replied, “Pick… pick nine lotus flowers (Cai jiu duo lian).”

Tang Jingran gave a gratified smile. “It’s good that Teacher Tao knows.”

Not only was Tao Shuiyuan confused, but most people in the comments didn’t understand either.

Riding a Broom to Mars: No, what does that mean? I feel like something is off, but I can’t put my finger on it.

Love Eating Ginger: Hiss, I feel like I’ve heard this before.

Anonymous: No, do you guys really not know?

Anonymous: It’s a homophone.

Anonymous: ‘Picking nine lotus flowers’ (Cai jiu duo lian) sounds like ‘You really need to practice more’ (Cai jiu duo lian ).
