After being reborn, I became a top-tier celebrity by resetting my game history.

Shen Qingyue reluctantly accepted the card, still complaining, "Don't think that I'll be grateful to you just because you gave me some benefits."

Su Qi shrugged and said helplessly, "Whatever, I don't care who I'm with. But if it's you, wouldn't it be awkward if no one else chose you?"

"you--"

"Goodbye." Su Qi waved her finger and returned to the preparation area for the dating reality show recording with a relaxed pace.

The host kindly reminded everyone, "Ladies and gentlemen, please watch your words. Our cameras are on, and we've been recording for a long time."

"..."

Shen Qingyue was speechless. She clenched the card in her hand, looked at the male guest opposite her, and thought she might as well just pick someone at random.

"Who wants to team up with me?"

No one answered.

Shen Qingyue stood awkwardly to the side until Jian Yuxi walked over and said, "I'll go with you."

Perhaps because everyone had found a suitable partner, Su Qi gave the card to Shen Qingyue, and Jian Yuxi had no choice but to turn to Shen Qingyue instead.

Having saved face, Shen Qingyue was too lazy to make a fuss.

Jiang Ze held the card, knowing that he had just been rejected by Su Qi, leaving only Zheng Xin unselected.

However, Zheng Xin wanted to partner with Gu Xing.

"Brother Gu, given our relationship, you'll have to choose me no matter what, right?"

"I know, if it weren't for the large number of people in my group, you wouldn't have been able to go to Su Qi, right?"

Gu Xing didn't speak, but looked deeply at Su Qi, who was sitting alone behind him combing her hair.

Just as Gu Xing was about to hand over his card, Jiang Ze's card blocked it instantly.

"what are you doing?"

"I know you wanted to give it to Zheng Xin, but I came first."

Gu Xing: "..."

Before Gu Xing could speak, Zheng Xin proudly boasted to a short-haired woman, "I knew it, some people's glory is only temporary."

In the end, it was she who was the one who was outcompeted.

Gu Xing asked in bewilderment, "Zheng Xin, what's wrong with you? Before, even though you used to throw little tantrums, everyone just thought you were cute. But now you're acting like a jealous woman."

Zheng Xin stomped her feet: "I'm your CP! How dare you say that to me? Our fan club has already gotten into trouble, and if you don't defend us, it will affect both of us!"

Gu Xing smiled nonchalantly: "Really? It won't affect me, it will only affect you."

Because Zheng Xin is a woman, the cost of spreading rumors about women is much lower than the cost of spreading rumors about men.

A beauty mark on Gu Xing's brow was somewhat dazzling under the light, and Su Qi only glanced at it before turning away.

Gu Xing pushed Jiang Ze away: "Sorry, I never intended to choose her in the first place. The person I wanted to choose was..."

He walked up to Su Qi: "It's Su Qi."

Zheng Xin covered her mouth, unable to believe that things had turned out this way. She kept crying, but dared not shed a tear, and turned away, not wanting others to see her disheveled appearance.

Everyone abandoned her—her team, her fans, her friends, her brother—and now, even her on-screen couple of many years has fallen apart.

Su Qi took the card from Gu Xing's hand, leaned back on the sofa and played with it, nodding slightly: "Thank you."

Her tone was indifferent, and after receiving an affirmative answer, Gu Xing tentatively sat down next to Su Qi.

However, Su Qi acted like a queen, supporting herself on the sofa armrests with both hands and holding a burning Ribin in her mouth.

Her aura was so powerful that Gu Xing felt somewhat overwhelmed sitting next to her.

However, he didn't know why, but this woman had a special attraction to him. She had secrets, and he couldn't help but want to get closer to her and explore the unknowns within her.

Su Qi glanced at Zheng Xin beside her, knowing she was crying, and for some reason, she felt inexplicably unwell.

Just like when I saw her sister Su Xuezhao cry.

Su Qi turned her head and glanced at Gu Xing, who was smiling at her. She smiled back with a malicious grin, then her eyes turned cold.

"How selfish. Zheng Xin has worked with you for so many years. How could you say such vicious things? You're not simple."

Gu Xing's face turned cold: "Don't mind her, it was just a fling between us."

Su Qi replied, "Oh, so you're not just putting on an act with me? This is a variety show recording, so please watch your words, Mr. Gu."

Su Qi hates it when people bring up gender, but Gu Xing just happened to hit her sore spot.

Gu Xing lowered his head awkwardly and hummed in response.

The military picnic was held in a field on the western outskirts of the training ground, where the wheat fields were blooming in patches of golden yellow.

The recording crew gave each couple a shot, and when the camera focused on other couples, the atmosphere was warm and filled with happiness.

Jiang Ze was a low-key and sincere person, and he quickly became friends with Zheng Xin, but their conversations were limited to discussing what kind of movies were currently popular in the industry.

But netizens have long since shifted their focus away from Zheng Xin and instead are calling out Jiang Ze:

[A male artist who has been retired from the entertainment industry for so many years but still pays attention to film and television! He's a good actor!]

[A true actor, you can't criticize him. When Su Qi won, this guy was only thinking about finding out from Su Qi how to achieve three consecutive 10-ring scores.]

Is this guy really incapable of coming back to save the Chinese entertainment industry? He's good-looking, but he just loves making war movies.

Seriously, I really hope he and Su Qi collaborate; if they made a war film, it would definitely be a box office hit.

Su Qi's system records the popularity of Zheng Xin. He heard that Zheng Xin's popularity had dropped to a certain level. The system prompted that if Zheng Xin's popularity did not change after the variety show ended, her status would be lowered.

Everyone took their partners and found a place to have a picnic. Gu Xing added the charcoal to the small round stove.

Seeing that Su Qi was not interested and did not move, Gu Xing very attentively brought over the barbecue ingredients. After everything was set up, the camera of the variety show recording focused on Su Qi and Gu Xing.

At this moment, Su Qi finally came to her senses and began to "grill the meat first" in front of the camera.

Gu Xing was stunned: "Huh? Okay."

The reaction was so quick, it was as if Su Qi was really there to work, not wanting to bring in any personal agenda.

This left Gu Xing completely baffled. What female star wouldn't seize the opportunity to market their on-screen couple status if she had a male co-star? But Su Qi's actions made him somewhat undecided.

He could only obediently grill the meat and ask Su Qi what dipping sauce she wanted.

She couldn't get used to human food; to be precise, Su Qi could have chosen not to eat at all: "Whatever."

"The seasoning of lemon, cilantro, and salt is quite refreshing."

"Hmm." Su Qi remained silent.

Of the five couples in the reality show, only Su Qi and Gu Xing's pairing didn't make a splash at all, while the other pairs had already been edited into amazing pieces by the editors in the editing room.

"Last week's hot topic was Miss Su, but now there's nothing to edit out. Sigh, even when there's a hot topic, we don't know how to capitalize on it."

"Exactly. Gu Xing even came to ask her to be his partner. Isn't he just obviously trying to ride on her popularity to boost his own? His reputation has been affected by Zheng Xin, and now he needs to salvage it."

"You can't just say that. You say Gu Xing only wants to salvage his reputation? He could have easily put on an act, but now he's helping Su Qi grill meat without complaint..."

The next second, the editors realized something and suddenly stopped talking.

Everyone seized on the hot topic: "Yes, yes, this is it! A top-tier movie star is developing feelings for a young actress, personally grilling meat for her, and with the movie star wearing an apron, isn't this bound to be a viral sensation?"

Su Qi got burned by the barbecue. Gu Xing noticed her unusual condition and asked with concern, "Did you get burned? Well, I brought some cola."

The scene of someone handing out Cokes that weren't available at the venue was recorded.

[Was this specially prepared for Su Qi by Actor Gu?]

Is a new couple about to appear?

Thankfully it wasn't Zheng Xin; I get goosebumps just looking at her now.
