Do You Still Hate Her? 07 – The most handsome man in Shang Lu’s eyes

At this moment, chaos broke out at the scene, and no one noticed Xu Ze.

Ye Lu couldn’t accept it, and Xia Yuan naturally couldn’t understand it either. It was the first time Xia Yuan felt so ignored.

After the production team took back Shang Lu’s phone, Xia Yuan made a sad expression and said, “I didn’t expect Shang Lu’s taste to be like this. It’s quite strange. By the way, this is also the first time Yu Su’s small eyes have been recognized by someone.”

Lin Yanyan rolled her eyes at Xia Yuan in the video and said directly, “Why do you care about what she likes?”

Although Lin Yanyan didn’t think Yu Su was a handsome guy, Xia Yuan had no right to dictate Shang Lu’s taste!

At the same time, Shang Lu finally understood why she and Xia Yuan didn’t get along.

He seemed gentle on the surface, but in reality, he was just a male version of Ning Lin. The only difference was that he was not targeting Shang Lu.

Shang Lu found it annoying and said directly, “I just think small eyes are beautiful. It’s boring to keep repeating the same thing.”

Realizing that both Lin Yanyan and Shang Lu were not supportive of him, Xia Yuan felt a loss of face. His smile became stiff, but he still said, “We are teammates and good friends. It’s okay.”

Someone shared Shang Lu’s opinion and felt that this was not showing enough respect for Yu Su.

[Is it really appropriate for Xia Yuan to say such things in front of so many outsiders? It’s a bit excessive.]

[Occasionally making a joke is fine, but how many times has it been repeated in just a few minutes? I’m annoyed, let alone Shang Lu.]

Immediately, Xia Yuan’s fans came to refute.

[This is because they have a good relationship, and friends can make these jokes. What’s the big deal? The people earlier probably have no friends like Shang Lu, so they wouldn’t understand.]

[But is Yu Su angry? Sorry, I really can’t tell from his expression.]

[Isn’t it normal for boys to make these jokes with each other? Does it need to be blown out of proportion like this?]

However, Ye Lu deeply understands how terrifying Xia Yuan’s fans can be in terms of combat power. While he doesn’t care much, Shang Lu and Lin Yanyan are girls after all, and it won’t be good for them if this continues.

So, Ye Lu, who is usually not very reliable, surprisingly showed some emotional intelligence this time. He stood up, directly waved goodbye to Xia Yuan, wanting to end this video chat, and said, “You’re welcome to come to our live broadcast next time.”

Xia Yuan also sensed the subtle atmosphere, and there wasn’t much left to talk about in this video. So, he followed the path given by Ye Lu and ended the conversation.

The video call ended, everyone gathered together, and today’s recording officially began.

And Ye Lu also realized that his unlucky day was not ending, but rather just beginning.

Because the first game segment of today was—

Haunted House.

They were going to the haunted house to find different colored pieces of a tangram puzzle. The objective was to collect all the pieces and assemble them into a square to win.

Since Jiang Jing had a weak heart and couldn’t participate in this kind of horror game exploration, she decided not to join in this round. Instead, she stayed back at the villa to prepare lunch for everyone.

The remaining six people were divided into two teams, with two people from each team entering the haunted house to search, while one team member waited outside for their teammates to gather all the puzzle pieces and complete the puzzle.

Teammates within the same team could communicate using walkie-talkies at any time. The team that lost would have to endure a punishment of bitter gourd juice for all members.

The power to form the teams was given to Jiang Jing, and she could pair up the members as she pleased. She placed magnetic name tags with each person’s name on the whiteboard, representing their team assignments.

So, Jiang Jing happily placed the names of Shang Lu and Yu Su on the same side.

The audience laughed.

[Hahaha, Jiang Jing, are you leading the way in shipping CP?]

[Putting Shang Lu and Yu Su together first, and in the same team, isn’t it too obvious?]

[Jiang Jing, have they corrupted you too? Don’t forget that you’re a mature senior!]

After recording two episodes of the show, Jiang Jing realized that the person who naturally attracted attention and had a built-in fan base was the originally the least popular contestant, Shang Lu. Only matters related to Shang Lu could garner more camera time and discussions among netizens.

Then Jiang Jing thought for a moment and let Ye Lu’s name go as well.

Ye Lu : “?”

Why did she let him go? Was she going to let him watch as Shang Lu continued to praise Yu Su’s beauty? Oh my heavens! He couldn’t accept it!!!

Someone succinctly summarized this group in one sentence.

[Shang Lu and her ideal handsome man Yu Su, along with the untalented and redundant Ye Lu]

[Ye Lu’s fans say: We want to refute, but we’ll finish laughing first]

Of course, even if Ye Lu didn’t want to be in the same group as these two right now, the grouping results couldn’t be changed.

Lin Yanyan was also very unhappy because she wanted to be with Shang Lu, not become Shang Lu’s opponent.

Moreover—

She didn’t want to place Shang Lu next to Yu Su!

What if a beauty like Shang Lu actively showed interest and Yu Su developed feelings for her? What would they do if they fell in love? And what if Yu Su turned out to be a scumbag like before, and Shang Lu repeated her mistakes?

Lin Yanyan looked at Shang Lu and then at Yu Su, and then began pulling her own hair.

Lin Yanyan’s thoughts were practically written on her face, and everyone in the barrage comments could only laugh and cry at her.

[If the first person on the entire internet to agree to this marriage and start matchmaking is Jiang Jing, then it’s obvious that the first person to oppose it would be Lin Yanyan, hahaha.]

[Lin Yanyan looks so angry, hahaha, there’s a sense of immediate danger like her freshly planted cabbage is about to be stolen by a pig.]

When they set off for the recording location, even though they weren’t teammates in the same group, Lin Yanyan forcefully sat in the car with Shang Lu’s group.

Yu Su sat in the passenger seat, while Lin Yanyan squeezed into the backseat with Shang Lu and Ye Lu.

Shang Lu felt Lin Yanyan grabbing her hand and found it a bit strange, so she turned her head.

Lin Yanyan didn’t look at Shang Lu on the surface but quietly wrote a sentence on the palm of Shang Lu’s hand with her fingertip :

[Idols who date will be beheaded.]

So Shang Lu can’t like Yu Su either! Superficial love at first sight based on appearance will definitely not lead to a good outcome!

Shang Lu : “…”

—What strange things are on Lin Yanyan’s mind?

She just thinks the other person looks good, just like appreciating a beautiful flower, without any romantic feelings involved.

So Shang Lu also held Lin Yanyan’s hand and responded to her by lightly writing words with his fingertips.

[My goal is to be a top actress, not to fall in love.]

Lin Yanyan : “!”

Great!

Seeing Shang Lu’s serious expression, Lin Yanyan felt relieved.
