Quick Transmigration: The Female Supporting Character's Counterattack, A Guide to Cunning Strat

That evening, the male guests received another text message from the production team:

The second date is here! Send a date invitation to the girl you like and start your second sweet date together!

A friendly reminder from the program team:

The early bird catches the worm, and the male guests who arrive early have the right to go on dates earlier, provided that the female guests agree.

After reading the text message, Feng Yueze suddenly stood up, opened the door, and strode towards Lin Shuwan's room.

I hadn't noticed before, but now I realize that his and her rooms are quite far apart. On the way, he passed Fang Yu, who was standing in front of Jiang Wei's door, and Xu Angran, who was on his way to Gao Manyi's room.

When he arrived, there was already someone standing in front of Lin Shuwan's door—it was Shen Qingyang.

"There's a Western restaurant in Shengxin Plaza that's really good. Would you like to come with me to try it tomorrow at noon? It would make up for my mistake in choosing a restaurant last time."

Lin Shuwan stood inside the room, and Feng Yueze couldn't see her expression, only hearing her say, "Sorry, I have work tomorrow."

Shen Qingyang looked somewhat surprised, as if he was astonished to be rejected, but he quickly composed himself and said politely, "Business is important, so please take care and get some rest. I'll be leaving now."

Shen Qingyang turned around, greeted Feng Yueze who was standing not far away, and then left.

Lin Shuwan then noticed Feng Yueze and tilted her head to ask, "What's wrong?"

Feng Yueze stood in the spot where Shen Qingyang had been standing: "You, do you have something to do tomorrow?"

"Yes, I need to go back to the research institute tomorrow." Lin Shuwan was noticeably more patient with Feng Yueze. "It should be over around 2 o'clock."

"Well," Feng Yueze's Adam's apple bobbed, his voice a little dry. Unlike Shen Qingyang, who had planned the date in advance, his mind was blank. "Can you leave the arrangements after this to me? I'll pick you up. Would you like to go shopping with me?"

He felt his heart was beating too fast; his heart was racing all day, and the wait for a response felt like a long trial.

"Okay."

A surge of surprise welled up inside him, and Feng Yueze couldn't help but smile, looking a little silly: "How about I take you to the research institute tomorrow morning?"

"Wouldn't that be too much trouble?" Lin Shuwan couldn't help but smile.

"No," Feng Yueze replied quickly.

"it is good."

The two, one inside the door and the other outside, looked at each other and smiled, like two silly little fools.

The next day, Feng Yueze took Lin Shuwan to the research institute and then drove back to his usual residence—where the selection of clothes was more complete.

After searching through all the clothes, Feng Yueze still felt something was missing. In the end, worried about not having enough time, he reluctantly chose the blue casual suit—Lin Shuwan was also wearing blue today.

He tidied his hair a bit, changed his clothes, put on a matching watch and cufflinks, picked out a sapphire blue car in the garage, and set off.

I returned to the research institute at 1:21 PM.

With nearly 40 minutes to go, Feng Yueze was reviewing his date plans in his mind while keeping a close eye on the people coming and going.

The arrangements are actually very simple, just two things: watching a movie and having dinner.

But it wasn't easy; these two arrangements alone took him an entire night.

He carefully searched online for guides: places suitable for couples to go on dates alone.

Just seeing the words "couple" made him feel sweet inside. "Alone" could also be considered a kind of thing; he just needed the production crew to set up the equipment beforehand and then leave.

But the thought of the show's production team quickly brought him back to reality. They weren't considered a couple yet; they were missing a formal confession—the production team forbade confessions beforehand, so he could only grit his teeth and silently resent it.

It's okay, it's all just a "date" anyway, so let's treat it as a rehearsal for a real couple's date. We can't be too casual about it.

The amusement park was the same one I went to before; nothing new. Pass.

It's a real-life escape room, a bit like a haunted house. He wouldn't mind carrying her through the whole thing, but he decided against it; she's easily frightened, and he didn't want to scare her. Pass.

Pottery? He's not very good at it. If the things he makes are too ugly, it will damage his image. Pass.

……

After much deliberation, he finally decided to watch a movie. It was the most conventional option, the least likely to go wrong, and most importantly, it was a private cinema with a small, independent box. It offered an intimate private space where you could sit on the same sofa, elbows touching in the dim light – perfect.

Forty minutes seemed to pass quickly; in the blink of an eye, Lin Shuwan had come out of the building.

Feng Yueze glanced at his glasses; his hair wasn't messy. He got out of the car, gestured to her, and opened the passenger door for her.

She closed the door, walked a few quick steps, and got into the car. After sitting down, Feng Yueze looked at her, a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

Lin Shuwan consciously fastened her seatbelt, and seeing that he hadn't, reminded him, "Don't forget to fasten your seatbelt."

"Okay." Feng Yueze turned his head regretfully, sighing silently to himself. His plan to help her fasten her seatbelt and increase their intimacy had failed again. It had failed this morning too; Lin Shuwan's safety awareness was still very strong. He shouldn't even think about it again.

Lin Shuwan asked, "Where are we going?"

"Let's go see a movie first." Feng Yueze turned on the navigation.

"what type is it?"

"It's an art film."

His top movie recommendation was a romance film, where the kisses between the male and female leads when they fall in love would quickly escalate the relationship. However, he worried that this might make him seem too eager, so after much hesitation, he decided not to choose one.

The second option is a horror movie, which would allow me to hold my girlfriend in my arms when she's scared, but I'll pass for the same reason.

After careful consideration, he chose a highly-rated art film that was both profound and visually stunning, fitting the romantic atmosphere of a date.
