Huayu: Starting with Rejecting 00s Actresses on a Dating Show

These rules are just unbelievable!

On the surface, it's about letting you "choose your teammates," but in reality, it's forcing you to personally push your "dating partner" out and pair them up with other people.

If it's not something they're interested in, then it's fine; at most, it's just a little awkward.

But if someone has designs on it, this rule is nothing short of a public act of betrayal, utterly disgusting!

At this moment, Lei Yi was leisurely leaning back in his chair in the monitoring room, while the rapidly scrolling comments on the screen were filled with praise and criticism from the viewers:

"What kind of underworld rules are these?!"

"Has the planner lost their mind?"

"It's so disgusting!"

"So exciting, I love watching it."

"What interesting rules! The production team has really figured out how to create drama."

Seeing these strong words, Lei Yi's lips curled into a satisfied smile.

This is exactly what he wanted—to tear away the veil of warmth from the guests and thoroughly stir up the undercurrents hidden beneath the surface.

Human selfishness, possessiveness during the ambiguous period of a relationship, pretense when facing competition, and that bit of hypocrisy that one is unwilling to expose in front of others...

What he wanted was to force out this naked psychological game!

The staff member cleared his throat and continued:

The scoring mechanism and rewards/penalties will be announced below.

The scores are divided into five levels, with each item ranging from a maximum of 10 points to a minimum of 2 points. The final ranking is based on the total score.

Penalty: The pair with the lowest score will have one member 'exiled'.

Reward: The pair with the highest score will get a special date; details of the date will not be announced at this time.

Okay, please start forming groups now.

Before the staff member finished speaking, everyone was already making plans in their minds.

William was conflicted. Of the four aspects of the competition—morality, intelligence, physical fitness, and aesthetics—the one that was the most intense and gave people the most direct experience was the physical fitness competition.

The feeling of stepping on someone with force is the most exhilarating.

Of all the male guests so far:

Tan Wen's figure appeared the thinnest.

Jiang Yi goes without saying; he's like a wild bull.

Gu Beiyu was also tall and strong.

Ao Ruipeng is a bit taller than Tan Wen.

As for himself, he has been working out for five or six years, so he is definitely much stronger than Tan Wen.

So he wanted to push Liu Haochun to Tan Wen, he wanted to see Tan Wen lose in front of Liu Haochun, and he wanted to see the two of them suffer a crushing defeat.

However, deep down he was unhappy that Liu Haochun had teamed up with Tan Wen, since Liu Haochun was someone he wanted to get to know.

Finally, he made a decision: "Haochun, why don't you team up with Tan Wen first?"

Liu Haochun was quite surprised to hear this. How could William suddenly be so understanding and know what she was thinking? She nodded happily, put her hands behind her back, and walked towards Tan Wen.

William opened his mouth, intending to give her some instructions on how to be careful, but she didn't stay for a moment, as if she had wanted to leave for a long time.

Ao Ruipeng's last date was with Sun Yike, and he gave her the complete choice.

She glanced at Tan Wen, pursed her lips, then turned her gaze to Jiang Yi. Tsk tsk, those muscles, I don't like them. In the end, he chose Gu Beiyu.

Lu Yuxiao and Gu Beiyu were her date last time. After she kissed Tan Wen last night, she no longer hesitated about her feelings, so she didn't need to consider anyone else except Tan Wen.

Before she could discuss it with Gu Beiyu, she saw Liu Haochun walking towards Tan Wen.

She bit her lip, the strong side of her personality was brought to the fore, and she decided not to back down anymore, letting Tan Wen choose instead.

"Why don't you team up with Ao Ruipeng?" Gu Beiyu said before Lu Yuxiao could speak.

In his eyes, although the result of the competition was important, preventing Lu Yuxiao from teaming up with Tan Wen was even more important.

He had keenly observed all the scenes from last night and knew he couldn't allow the two of them to interact intimately any further.

"But….."

"Xiao Ao, would you like to team up with Xiao Lu?"

Gu Beiyu shouted at Ao Ruipeng, his voice completely drowning out Lu Yuxiao.

Ao Ruipeng glanced at Tan Wen, then at Lu Yuxiao, and said, "I'm fine, it's up to you guys."

"Oh well!"

She glanced at Tan Wen, who gave her a knowing look, which made Lu Yu feel guilty.

Jiang Yi's last date was with Xu Jing, but he had no interest in her at all, thinking she was too thin.

"Why don't you team up with William?" Jiang Yi said casually. He didn't care who Xu Jing teamed up with; his eyes were fixed on He Mi'er's side, and he was eagerly anticipating it.

Xu Jing doesn't care who she teams up with, but her PD advised her to continue contacting Ao Ruipeng, at least to leave the audience with the image of a devoted lover, as sympathy votes would bring her a large number of fans.

So she still showed some hesitation, but finally nodded reluctantly.

After Lu Yuxiao teamed up with Ao Ruipeng, Tan Wen agreed to team up with Liu Haochun without any psychological burden.

Of course, if he had to choose between Liu Haochun and Lu Yuxiao, he would choose Lu Yuxiao without hesitation.

"Who do you want to team up with?" Tan Wen asked He Mi'er.

"Who do you want me to team up with?"

"I don't want to!" Tan Wen said the truth.

He Mi'er smiled slightly, "Then let me rephrase my question: Who would you be comfortable with me teaming up with?"

"I won't accept any of them!"

"It seems your possessiveness is no less than mine, but the rules are what they are, and I have to choose one."

"So you choose."

······

In the end, the selection process alone took a long time before the groups were finalized.

Ao Ruipeng and Lu Yuxiao.

Gu Beiyu and Sun Yike.

Tan Wen and Liu Haochun.

William and Xu Jing.

Jiang Yi and He Mier.

Since only Jiang Yi was left, He Mi'er had no choice. She raised her chin at Tan Wen, looking quite provocative.

Jiang Yi's wish had come true, and he couldn't contain his excitement. He spoke to He Mi'er in as gentle a tone as possible:

"I will definitely win for you today, do you believe me?"

He Mi'er nodded politely.

Liu Haochun beckoned to Tan Wen, and Tan Wen leaned closer to listen.

"I want to get first place, is that okay?"

Tan Wen did not give a clear response. He planned to observe the situation on the field first and adapt accordingly, as sometimes being first is not necessarily the most suitable.

When Liu Haochun saw that Tan Wen had not made any promises, he thought that he had put pressure on Tan Wen again.

She was somewhat annoyed, having embarrassed Tan Wen twice today. Sigh, when will she learn to think things through before speaking?

The group stood in pairs, facing the staff.

The staff member smiled slightly and said, "The first round of assessment has concluded. The scores will now be announced."

What······

What does that mean...?

Everyone was a little confused; when did the first round start?

The staff didn't keep us in suspense: "The first round of assessment focuses on 'morality,' aiming to showcase integrity and kindness."

In the team formation segment just now, Ao Ruipeng gave the choice entirely to the girls, demonstrating respect and gentlemanly conduct towards his partners, thus earning him first place with 10 points.

Ao Ruipeng's inner thoughts: Is it possible that I don't care at all who she chooses?

"Second place goes to Gu Beiyu, with 8 points," the staff member continued.

"During the team formation process, he not only asked the girls for their opinions, but also asked the other party for their opinions, effectively avoiding the embarrassment of being rejected, hence his second-place ranking."

Lu Yu's inner monologue: But why do I feel like I'm being pushed...?

"William and Jiang Yi tied for third place. They both asked the girls for their opinions, and both scored 6 points."

Liu Haochun felt that William's score should be higher because he accurately chose Tan Wen for her among all the boys. Wait a minute, wouldn't Tan Wen be the last one?

"Tan Wen, 2 points." The staff member read out emotionlessly, "Although Tan Wen superficially inquired about the girl's wishes, he repeatedly interfered with her when she expressed her thoughts, showing a lack of respect."

Tan Wen's inner thoughts: ......

He Mi'er laughed inwardly, but she knew that Tan Wen's so-called intervention was very useful to her, which proved that he cared.

Liu Haochun looked at Tan Wen with sympathy.

Jiang Yi and his companions were secretly pleased; they were happy to see Tan Wen make a fool of himself.

The staff member cleared his throat and continued, "The current scores are as follows:"

Ao Ruipeng and Lu Yuxiao. 10 points

Gu Beiyu and Sun Yike. 8 points

Tan Wen and Liu Haochun. 2 points

William and Xu Jing. 6 points

Jiang Yi and He Mi'er. 6 points

Okay, now we will announce the second assessment, which is "intelligence".

Intellectual depth and communication skills are important criteria for measuring the longevity of a relationship.

Now, each boy will draw a card about a relationship issue, think about it, and then answer it. The other four girls (excluding their partner) will then score the answers.

Tan Wen stepped forward to draw a card, and after seeing the question, he felt that he was being targeted today...
