Jealousy (1) – unedited
Xi Chengyun looked up for a moment and said, “I see.” He looked at Bai Qi and continued, “Careful, look where you’re going, enough chatter for now.”
【He saw Su Meng?】
【He saw a huge fanatic】
【Xi-laoshi expresses his unhappiness when he sees Qi Qi talking to another woman】
Su Meng held back a sniffle when she heard Xi Chengyun’s voice. She lowered her head in disappointment while she struggled to breathe in enough oxygen. A buzzing sound resounded in her mind.
Just then, Bai Qi  reached forward to lend her a hand.
“You have great will and stamina, but… do you really not need a helping hand?”
Su Meng was panting frantically and she couldn’t take it any longer. She hurriedly took his arm.
‘It’s so difficult to be a homewrecker!’
Xi Chengyun, who was following behind them, was speechless.
“Bai Qi, what are you doing?”
【HAHAHA, Xi-laoshi is the one who is hurt in the end】
【A gut feeling tells me that Su Meng and Bu Xiao are merely acting as a couple, they aren’t actually together】
“ Your fans who are… joining forces?” Bai Qi finally spouted. He immediately realized that what he was doing was a little inappropriate, so he lended a hand to Bu Xiao too.
The corners of Bu Xiao’s mouth twitched, he raised his eyebrows as he coldly and nonchalantly said, “What?” Despite that, he still reached to hold Bai Qi’s hand.
However, before he could fully savor the warmth from the palm, Bai Qi linked his and Su Meng’s hands together; as if he were a dad giving his daughter off during marriage.
“Alright then, take your time up the hill,” Bai Qi said before he took a few steps back to help Fu Chunying.
【The God of Marriage and Matchmaking?】
【Hilarious, just look at Bu Xiao and Su Meng’s dumbfounded expressions】
After some time, all of them finally reached the halfway point of the hill.
There were many things to do in the area; there was even a hotel that was built into the wall of the hill.
The program team pointed at the huge empty space in front of the hotel and said, “Other than today’s Number 1, everyone else will be camping here tonight.”
The guests of the show instantly frowned.
“Isn’t the outcome guaranteed? Xi-laoshi has so many votes, we’re better off setting up camp right now,” Zhou Yanfeng grumbled.
“Zhou-ge, don’t you want to give it one last try?” the crew asked.
Zhou Yanfeng was stunned for a moment. His chauvinistic mentality couldn’t allow him to lose face. “… Well, let’s give one last try.”
The other guests looked at each other and started discussing their plans among themselves.
【I’ve got to give it to them, they turned a simple minded couple’s variety show into an exciting show which requires strategizing… Would we get to see the guests writing their own script and acting them out?】
Soon, Yang Yiru and her husband also arrived by car.
The team cleared their throat and said, “As all of you know, in most movies and dramas, the relationship between the main characters only improves when they face challenges together…”
Bu Xiao eyebrows furrowed. “Just get to the point.”
“Today, other than ziplining and rock climbing as a couple, and everyone will also be crossing the tightrope together…”
The guests were at a loss for words.
【Oh my gosh HAHAHA. What sort of deadly activities are these?】
【Hello, team, please come to your senses! This is a variety show for couples, not a circus!】
However, despite the criticism, the audience were also excited to see what would happen next.
The activities were no doubt exciting.
And through these thrilling activities, they’d be able to see the damsel being saved by the hero and the hero fighting for her; what a view that’ll be!
Bu Xiao’s fans seemed to be the only ones who were unhappy.
【It was a f*cking stupid idea to invite him and Su Meng to participate in the show together, and now, you guys are asking him to do such dangerous acts? Are celebrities not humans too? Who will guarantee his safety?】
【The crew hasn’t given Bu Xiao much chance to shine. Less popular celebrities always get the shorter end of the stick】
The melon-seed eaters were the first to refute them.
【Please, “The Perfectly Married Pair” has been the loveliest show I’ve watched thus far. The guests are always harmonious and the commenters went from being haters to the most supporting fans. I feel happy every time I watch them. Do you all think Bu Xiao can ruin all that single-handedly?】
【It’s hard to say, his fans are absolutely insane after all】
【Got a feeling that he’ll be destroyed by Xi Chengyun’s fans】
The crew clapped their hands and said, “Here’s a list of activities we’ll be attempting today. We’ve printed it out, so here, please take one each. Then, you all can proceed to the next station…”
The door in front of them opened, and the staff from the resort escorted them into the area.
To “cross the tightrope together”, all the couples will be tied together with a safety harness and proceed to walk past a 12 meter tightrope. The tightrope is around three stories away from the ground.
If one of them falls, the other would fall along with them.
Zhou Yanfeng wanted to give up on the spot.
On the other hand, the couples wouldn’t be tied together when rock climbing. However, if one of them doesn’t make it to the top, they still won’t win.
To provide encouragement for them, the crew said, “There’s no time limit! As long as you finish one of the activities, you get the opportunity for a lucky draw. You’ll randomly get one of the special treatments of the VIP package.”
“Can I get two chairs please, thank you,” Xi Chengyun said.
The staff were stunned, but they ended up getting the chairs for him.
When the chairs arrived, he ushered Bai Qi to sit down.
“Go on, you all can proceed now,” Xi Chengyun said.
The other guests were speechless.
【Xi-laoshi and Bai Qi have decided to become melonseed eaters instead!】
【They have a point, they don’t even need to work more for the VIP treatment】
【Aren’t they worried that their votes would be surpassed!!! Ngaw, I wanted to see them rock climbing together】
Just then, Su Meng slowly approached them. She looked extremely embarrassed as she bit her lip.
“Are you here for Xi-laoshi?” Bai Qi asked.
“Oh no, I’m here for you,” she replied.
Xi Chengyun, who had looked calm, suddenly turned and fixed his gaze on her. This was the first time he looked at her properly.
【Oh gosh, has Su Meng figured out a way to get Xi-ge’s attention?】
Su Meng bowed and smiled, “Bai Qi, can you help me with one of the activities? I’m not really skilled in any of them.”
【???】
Bai Qi was confused and came back to his senses after some time. “How am I supposed to help you? We’re supposed to finish these activities as a pair, no? So, you and Bu Xiao would make a good pair…”
【Wow, look at the change in Xi-ge’s expression. Bai Qi sure saved the situation】
【Su Meng is in danger】
“Oh my, can we actually replace one another in an activity made for a couple?” Bai Qi exclaimed in shock.
Xi Chengyun looked at Bu Xiao who was standing at a distance. He calmly asked, “Why don’t I help instead?”
“No.”
“It’s alright, Xi-laoshi.”
Bai Qi immediately said while Bu Xiao replied concurrently.
Xi Chengyun turned to look at Bai Qi, and his lightened mood was clearly written on his face. The corners of his mouth were drawn upwards as he said, “Mn, I’ll go with whatever Bai Qi says.”
Without a thought, instinctively, Bai Qi responded, “And I’ll follow Xi-ge’s wishes.”
