Reborn to bury love, I can reach for the stars.

Aside from the awkward moment earlier, the singing segment was a rare harmonious one. Even Su Muqing, who had always said she couldn't sing, started singing after everyone egged her on, and sure enough, she was... tone-deaf.

This provides yet another piece of material for her and Gu Ling's fan war, and it's the kind of material that the creator actively provided.

Su Muqing also made it to the trending topics with this performance, but when you clicked on it, all you saw were "hahahahaha".

Of course, none of that matters now, because the paparazzi have released new photos, and they're really punctual, even earlier than expected.

The photos show Zhou Ran escorting Song Yan home against the backdrop of a luxury mansion; the two holding hands while traveling and shopping, entering a hotel together; and the two embracing and kissing late at night. The backgrounds range from spring/summer to autumn/winter, and anyone who sees them would agree they are a sweet couple.

The photos quickly sparked public outcry, completely contradicting the clarification issued by Song Yan's studio earlier that morning.

Leftovers: Hahahaha, the slap in the face came too fast!

The moon is so beautiful tonight: My goodness, how long has this paparazzi been following them??

Carefully selected high-quality goods: Although, these two are quite a good match.

Say "I love you" right now: Song Yan really has no chance to turn things around; the mistress has been exposed.

You find it strange: Song Yan might have been cheated on.

Out of Control Today: I think so too. Song Yan's personality makes it impossible for her to be a mistress; it's more likely that the scumbag is deceiving both sides.

Big Grey Wolf: Maybe Zhou Ran and Yuan Xin broke up a long time ago.

Xiao Xin Xiao Xian: I really feel sorry for my Xin Jie, pshaw!

Suddenly, a chaotic battle broke out among the various factions. Apart from Zhou Ran, who suffered a huge loss of fans during this period, with fans constantly posting farewell messages in the super topic, and even the fan club's account had not been updated for several days.

Of course, the new photos provided a lot of material for gossip netizens, and the timeline they had previously deduced was confirmed.

The two should have confirmed their relationship around May of last year. The last time their interaction was exposed was four months ago. After that, they may have broken up for various reasons. A little over a month ago, Zhou Ran appeared on the show again to pursue Yuan Xin.

AAA Jade Specialty Store: This week, Ran is even worse than I imagined. Today, I'm not selling jade; I'm going to expose this scumbag.

Yuanqi Xiaobao: So Yuan Xin found out and broke up with him. Later, he broke up with Song Yan for some reason, and then came back to Yuan Xin?

Mamma Mia: My God, this is too much! They should be banned; this kind of person shouldn't be a public figure.

Rice ball without rice: Zhou Ran admitted to cheating on his wife on the show; now it remains to be seen whether Song Yan is also a third party.

Suddenly, Weibo and major forums were full of discussions about the three of them, and the popularity of the dating show "Love Code" reached an unprecedented level.

After being exposed by paparazzi in the morning, Song Yan, who had remained silent until now, finally spoke out amidst the online backlash.

Song Yan V: First of all, I want to apologize to Yuan Xin. No matter what, she was hurt. But there are some things I also need to explain.

I met Zhou Ran in January last year through a TV program. After the program ended, he started pursuing me, and we officially started dating in April last year. Throughout this relationship, I was completely unaware of Yuan Xin's existence.

In February of this year, we had an argument due to differences in our beliefs, and officially broke up in mid-March. We have no contact with each other since.

I apologize for taking up public resources for personal matters, and I also apologize to my friends who care about me.

The post also included several chat screenshots, showing the two confirming their relationship and deciding to break up, to prove that she was telling the truth.

This article was widely reposted by various marketing accounts and immediately trended on social media. Fans in the comments section expressed sympathy for their idol, and of course, also condemned the scumbag boyfriend.

Zhang Jie was unaware of the specific details of Zhou Ran's relationship with Song Yan. When she saw this Weibo post, her already throbbing head felt even more throbbing in her temples. It turned out that the so-called joint effort to clarify the mistress rumors was just a way to shift all the blame onto Zhou Ran; if she was unaware, she wasn't a mistress.

This was even worse for Zhou Ran.

Dong Ming smiled upon seeing the statement but made no move. His boss was probably still on the plane; he was curious to see his reaction upon landing.

The live stream chat was now unreadable, filled with all sorts of people cursing Zhou Ran. Director Wang was practically tearing his hair out from watching it.

This is the kind of buzz he wants, but this is supposed to be a sweet dating show, so why are all the people here criticizing scumbags?

Those present were unaware of what was happening outside; the karaoke session had just ended.

As Zhou Ran left the room, she was still a little reluctant to leave: "It's been so long since I've sung so freely. Sigh, I kind of want to hold a fan meeting."

【呸，渣男！】

[A fan meeting? You'll probably find boxes of eggs waiting for you there!]

If he holds a fan meeting, I'd like to ask someone to take my Didi (ride-hailing service) offline for me.

[Sisters in front, no, no, we don't do illegal things.]

There won't be a fan meeting. People on Weibo are already calling for Zhou Ran to get out of the entertainment industry.

[Exactly, who would dare to give him a chance? Your last chance to sing is today.]

Huang Chen checked the time; it was already past lunchtime. He walked over to Shi Wanmeng and asked, "Are you hungry?"

She touched her stomach and shook her head: "I ate a lot this morning, so I'm fine now."

"or……"

Before Huang Chen could finish speaking, Bai Zhu came up from behind and said, "Let's go out to eat. I didn't use the 400 yuan the production team gave me yesterday. If I don't use it today, I'll have to return it. It's a waste."

Director Wang, watching the monitor backstage: "..."

“Oh right,” Su Muqing reached into his pocket and took out a banknote: “I have fifty yuan here.”

Shi Wanmeng also started rummaging through her pockets: "I have a little bit here too, if we pool our money, we should be able to have a good meal."

Looking back at Yuan Xin walking behind her, Shi Wanmeng smiled and asked, "Sister Xin, we're going to eat, do you want to come along?"

“Great, I happen to have plenty of funds.”

As she spoke, she quickly took two steps forward, completely ignoring Zhou Ran, who was following behind her and trying to find a chance to speak.

Originally, it was just a small gathering of a few people, but more and more people came, and eventually even Zhou Ran joined in, turning it into a dinner for everyone.

The group of eight arrived at the restaurant, but there weren't enough tables, so they had to split into two.

Before anyone could react, Huang Chen naturally sat down next to Shi Wanmeng, who then waved to Yuan Xin: "Sister Xin, come over here!"

Seeing that the seat opposite Huang Chen was still empty, Gu Ling lifted her leg to walk over there, but Su Muqing ran past her and sat down on her bottom.

Gu Ling: "..."

Looking back at the three male guests already seated at the other table, she was even more speechless.

If I had known, I would have done my diet at noon today.
