Lu Liruan didn't do it on purpose, but her actions on camera made it seem as if she deliberately touched Cheng Nianzhi.

The sensation of the skin on her fingertips hadn't faded yet when Lu Liruan quickly curled her hand up. In a moment of impulsiveness, she blurted out, "Ah, you're prettier than a flower. I touched the wrong person."

……

There was silence.

Lu Liruan wished she could sew her mouth shut, for making a fuss about something she shouldn't have done.

[Hahahaha! I burst out laughing at the office!]

[She uttered that incredibly corny pickup line so effortlessly, hahaha! For a moment, I couldn't tell if it was her true feeling.]

Cheng Nianzhi, more beautiful than any flower, has driven Lu Liruan to the brink of crime!

[I'm dying of laughter! Someone please control Lu Liruan and save Cheng Nianzhi! I feel like Cheng Nianzhi shouldn't have to endure this kind of mental attack; he's just a pitiful, delicate flower!]

[I can tell that Lu Liruan genuinely thinks Azhi is handsome. She's such an aggressively attractive person! I'm coming clean, I also want to touch Azhi's face~]

When the host first got stuck there, he even felt that his career was being challenged.

"Hahaha, you're right, it's Nianzhi who made the mistake of being too good-looking!" The host laughed awkwardly twice: "Then let's count how many flowers Nianzhi and Liruan's group found in total!"

The final result was obvious: Lu Liruan's team almost defeated the second-place team by a margin to win the championship.

"Do you have any acceptance speech to give?" the director's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

“Why bother making a fuss about something so simple? The strong are always silent!” Lu Liruan raised an eyebrow.

"Heh, you weren't exactly silent just now..." The director's voice was rough and sarcastic.

Lu Liruan shut her mouth: ...

"Does Nianzhi have anything to say?" The host, always eager for drama, cued Cheng Nianzhi.

Cheng Nianzhi's smile, unnoticed by others, became more genuine as he softly asked, "Can we choose a room now?"

Oh no, he's gone astray!

"Okay, okay, let's start the room selection process!" The host pouted, "Let's begin with Li Ruan and Nian Zhi's group!"

"We want the two rooms on the third floor facing each other, the two with the large balconies!" Lu Liruan didn't hesitate for a second; she had already scouted the area while looking for her things.

Lin Qianyou interrupted the host once again before he could speak.

"Huh? Didn't you just cheat?" she asked, looking aggrieved.

"We all carried our own luggage up here, you didn't lift a finger, and you still won in the end. How cunning!"

"The director said..."

"What, is using your brain cheating?" Lu Liruan didn't tolerate her and retorted directly.

Lu Zheng had long found being in a group with Lin Qianyou annoying, and he was now eager to find a new partner.

He originally wanted to be in a group with Shi Jingyun because Shi Jingyun was the most popular among the female guests.

Lu Zheng thought it would be very easy for him to win a woman's heart with his charm, but now it seems that the young master of the Fu family came for Shi Jingyun.

It wasn't that he was less charming than Fu Tingshen, but rather that he couldn't afford to offend the Fu family; that's what Lu Zheng thought to himself.

Xiao Yiyi should be paired with Lu Yuan. Between Lin Qianyou and Lu Liruan, Lu Zheng weighed the options and felt that Lu Liruan was better, since Lu Liruan liked him and was easier to control.

Moreover... judging from the program just now, Lu Liruan is actually quite good at creating program effects, and the popularity has benefited Cheng Nianzhi for nothing.

After making up his mind, he didn't stop Lin Qianyou from questioning the fairness of the game, because if Lu Liruan stayed on the third floor with only two rooms, it would be difficult for him to communicate with Lu Liruan later.

After all, he couldn't possibly go up to the third floor and bump into Lu Liruan, could he?

Lu Zheng decided to show Lu Liruan some kindness; if Lu Liruan was sensible, he could coax her a little more.

Lu Liruan didn't have time to figure out Lu Zheng's thoughts right now. After all, he didn't seem to have much ability, and it would be a waste of her brain cells to deal with him seriously.

"You're just being opportunistic. What, do you think you're the only one with brains on this show?" Lin Qianyou stood up and looked around, as if she had caught a loophole in Lu Liruan's words, hoping that others would share her indignation.

Instead of getting any support, Xiao Yiyi whispered, "The rules of the game are that you can just say you're talking about the villa, so walking up or taking the elevator up shouldn't violate the rules, right?"

“You…” Lin Qianyou suddenly looked at Xiao Yiyi, wanting to ask her why she was speaking up for Lu Liruan, but fortunately she held back in the end.

Xiao Yiyi was startled and shrank back. Lu Yuan, standing to the side, straightened his chest and shielded Xiao Yiyi behind him, his handsome eyebrows and eyes showing a firm and youthful protectiveness.

"Jingyun, what do you think?" Lin Qianyou turned her attention to Shi Jingyun.

She was talking to Shi Jingyun, but her eyes were fixed on Fu Tingshen, as if she was hoping that Fu Tingshen would uphold justice for her.

But her feigned strength in her eyes was a complete charade; Fu Tingshen didn't even spare her a glance, his attention entirely focused on Shi Jingyun.

“The director set the rules, so if the director says there are no violations, then there are no violations… If I find an elevator, I will take it up.” Shi Jingyun was very fair.

Since Shi Jingyun had no objection, Fu Tingshen couldn't possibly have one either. For a moment, not a single person supported Lin Qianyou.

She looked at Lu Liruan, who leaned back in her chair with a look that said: Let's see how you try to cause trouble now.

Lin Qianyou was utterly bewildered: What exactly happened? Did Lu Liruan drug you? She was implying that you were all brainless, she thinks she's the smartest!

None of you have any objections? Have you all admitted it?

Xiao Yiyi gave Lu Liruan a shy smile from behind Lu Yuan: "She just told me where to find flowers. She's such a good person!"

Shi Jingyun looked at Cheng Nianzhi thoughtfully. Cheng Nianzhi's gaze followed Lu Liruan gently, something Shi Jingyun had never seen before.

Shi Jingyun knew that Cheng Nianzhi was a good actor, but he had always disdained acting for people he didn't care about.

The Cheng Nianzhi she knew was always restrained and polite, never revealing his true feelings, perfectly considerate like an ethereal shadow. But now…

"Alright, don't worry about these little things!" Lu Zheng said at the right moment.

Lin Qianyou turned around and gave him a resentful and mocking look: Now it's this coward's turn to play the good guy! Didn't you just agree by not saying anything? Let me charge ahead.

They're all scheming and backstabbing people, how could Lin Qianyou not understand Lu Zheng?

Now he's pretending to be a good guy.

Lin Qianyou wasn't one to suffer in silence: "Hey? Didn't you just tell me you felt it wasn't fair?"

The provocative intent behind these words is obvious.

"You must be mistaken. Okay, Qianyou, it's just a game, don't take it so seriously!" Lu Zheng didn't expect this woman to be so outspoken, not even considering the occasion!

Lu Liruan had already stood up, ready to enjoy her room, but now she sat down again.

"What's this called?" Lu Liruan muttered softly.

"Dogs fighting, a mouthful of fur?" Cheng Nianzhi's calm yet highly aggressive reply came from beside him.

Lu Liruan's eyes lit up, and she secretly gave Cheng Nianzhi a thumbs up: Very good, spot on.
