Chapter 155

Not only the staff and guests on the island feasted their eyes, but the audience before the livestream also exclaimed that they were seeing the world:

【These are the most beautiful fireworks I\'ve ever seen!!!】

【Thank you honorable island owner for broadening our horizons!】

【Is the island owner celebrating his birthday? He set off so many fireworks】

【No! I imagined the island owner to be a handsome foreign blonde!】

【He could also be celebrating an anniversary with his wife. Rich and doting on his wife, my tears of envy are flowing】

...

After the fireworks ended and the night sky returned to tranquility, everyone was still immersed in it. The director announced the rules for tomorrow\'s guest mutual selection.

"We have prepared four drawing boards in the men guests\' rooms. After the livestream ends, the four male guests need to draw a picture, with no limitation on theme, but cannot reveal personal information. Tomorrow morning the male guests will set off early and go to the date locations we have prepared. The female guests will blindly choose based on the drawings and successively go to the date locations to meet up with the male guests."

Everyone was attracted by tomorrow\'s blind date selection, and no one remembered to ask Zhong Ruanxing the question she had not yet answered.

What the four male guests drew was not shown to the audience, leaving suspense for tomorrow\'s livestream.

After taking a shower, Zhong Ruanxing returned to her room to find Bai Yinyue climbing onto her bed with a massager: "Ruanxing, let me massage your legs. You did too much today, relax a bit so your muscles won\'t be sore tomorrow."

Zhong Ruanxing happily laid down: "Where did you get the massager?"

Bai Yinyue said: "Xia Xi gave it to me."

They had been on the island for a while now, so who was interested in whom was roughly discernible. Xia Xi was clearly interested in Bai Yinyue, wanting to stick with her every day to do tasks together when there was no livestream. Zhong Ruanxing twisted her head and softly asked: "Xiao Bai, what do you think of Xia Xi?"

Bai Yinyue indifferently said: "Pretty funny."

That\'s it, the funny guy label. Xia Xi classmate danger!

Yong Yun walked over while drying her hair: "I feel Xiao Xi has a great personality, very easy to get along with, also very sincere. You can interact more with him."

Zhong Ruanxing immediately nodded in agreement: "Right! I also think you can spend more time with him."

Bai Yinyue casually glanced at her, then suddenly sighed: "Actually, I\'m not over my last heartbreak yet."

Yong Yun was a little surprised: "Heartbreak? When did you break up?"

Bai Yinyue smiled: "Unrequited love, ended without fruition."

Zhong Ruanxing: "............"

Suddenly feeling guilty, she obediently laid still, not daring to interfere again.

Up until now, Bai Yinyue had never asked her anything about the secret swap, but from her various behaviors, she had clearly seen through the truth. Zhong Ruanxing actually wished she would directly ask her face-to-face like Song Shuling did, rather than always leaving her feeling guilty like this.

Fortunately Bai Yinyue did not continue the topic, massaging for twenty minutes before handing the massager to Zhong Ruanxing and laying down herself: "My turn now."

The two took turns massaging each other, appearing very intimate.

When Zhuang Xueyu came over after her shower and saw this scene, a hint of meaning flashed through her eyes. After a moment, she spoke in not very fluent Mandarin: "Yinyue, before coming on this show I saw online netizens all saying you and Little President Cheng are very close, that you\'re a real couple, is it true?"

Bai Yinyue turned her head to look at her in surprise: "Of course it\'s false."

Zhuang Xueyu smiled: "Then I\'m going after Little President Cheng. I\'m very interested in men like him."

Bai Yinyue clasped her hands towards her: "Please go ahead! Don\'t hesitate, I wish you success!"

Zhuang Xueyu looked towards Zhong Ruanxing as well.

Before coming, she had carefully studied every guest on this show. She felt a strong sense of competitiveness towards Zhong Ruanxing as a female celebrity of the same type. She thought she wasn\'t much inferior to Zhong Ruanxing. But seeing her in person, she realized that the camera had actually weakened her beauty. Those exquisite features down to every tiny detail were simply incomparable.

In the daytime she could still compensate through temperament and aura, but now with everyone bare-faced after showering, without the foil of styling, the gap between them was even greater.

Zhuang Xueyu didn\'t understand why some people looked so similar with and without makeup. No wonder Little President Cheng would treat Zhong Ruanxing differently.

Now she no longer had better opportunities in Hong Kong showbiz, so coming to mainland China was her only new way out. This was her first step into the mainland market. Using Zhong Ruanxing as a stepping stone was secondary; most importantly, she had her sights set on Cheng Yaowen.

Before coming, her agent team had thoroughly investigated the Cheng family that controlled the Shiyong Group. The Chengs were one of the top wealthy families in mainland China, and Cheng Yaowen was notoriously a playboy, changing girlfriends as frequently as changing clothes, not only more handsome than those petty tycoons in Hong Kong, but also more generous.

If she could get together with Cheng Yaowen, her future development in the mainland would definitely be smooth sailing. Since Cheng Yaowen liked glamorous beauties like Zhong Ruanxing, she was confident she had a shot. It would be best to marry into this wealthy family; even if that failed, just briefly dating him would gain her the resources she wanted.

As long as she confirmed Zhong Ruanxing had no interest in Cheng Yaowen, her own chances would greatly increase.

That was why she had asked Zhong Ruanxing that question during the game of truth or dare. Zhong Ruanxing had clearly hesitated then, could her guess be wrong? Was Zhong Ruanxing just pretending to be indifferent as part of her schemes?

If so, then she would have to re-examine this rival.

Zhong Ruanxing didn\'t seem to notice her scrutiny, still seriously massaging Bai Yinyue\'s legs. Zhuang Xueyu finally smiled and asked: "What about you, Ruanxing? Will we become rivals?"

Zhong Ruanxing looked up at her with an encouraging smile: "Don\'t worry, never! Please boldly pursue love! You must succeed!"

Zhuang Xueyu: "......"

Somehow it felt strange but she couldn\'t pinpoint why. But since both of them indicated no interest in Cheng Yaowen, she would not stand on ceremony.

Without further ado, when the female guests woke up, washed up, and left the house the next morning, the male guests had already left the base.

The four paintings were arranged in a row in the yard, waiting for their selection.

The painting skills of all of them left much to be desired, probably around elementary school arts and crafts level.

The first painting used red watercolor to draw a sun, green wavy lines as mountains, and blue wavy lines as the sea, with two stick figures holding hands looking at the sunrise on the mountain.

The second painting was slightly better, using blue watercolor as the base depicting the big sea, with colorful little fish and jellyfish inside.

The third painting was even simpler, just a guitar and a piano, with a few music notes floating around.

The fourth painting had the best skill. It painted a long, winding alley, with just a few strokes sketching out the silhouette of a graceful girl walking in the alley holding an umbrella.
