Chapter 175
The Finale Celebration and Private Dates
[Ahhhh so sweet!]
[Old Shen, you really love her!]
[Please film the entire date as a vlog! Don’t cut a single second, I beg you!]
[So this counts as Xie Yiqun’s first private date!!]
[Never expected that the two most wild personalities in this dating show became the most stable CP.]
The last guest to make a public invitation was Xie Mi.
As the only guest who had already had two dates, Xie Mi didn’t want the already-short holiday to be entirely consumed by “assignments.”
So she had a sudden inspiration.
With fiery enthusiasm, she said:
“Shen Yiqun! I invite you to a gathering in the King’s Canyon!”
Director Niu, who had just been enjoying the shallow CP moment, was immediately snapped back to reality.
“You really don’t want to go outside at all!!”
But even so, Shen Yiqun still lifted his mouth in a pleasant curve and, with great ceremony, replied:
“I agree.”
With that, the public invitation segment concluded.
As for the anonymous invitations, Director Niu explained:
“Since it’s anonymous, they won’t be revealed on the show. The cards in the anonymous box will eventually be delivered to the invitees.”
“Everyone can follow the guests on Weibo to find out the outcomes.”
“And now—”
“The finale banquet officially begins!!”
As light, cheerful music played, the finale party entered its final stage.
Five-star chefs appeared carrying a variety of dishes, filling a five-meter-long table.
Wine glasses were stacked into a pyramid, overflowing with rich red wine.
Guests and staff celebrated together, marking the successful completion of the first phase of the dating show.
“Dear viewers, please look forward to the second phase of ‘Love Observation.’ There will be even more exciting segments and upgraded interactive games waiting for you!”
“Remember to follow the official account. You’ll be the first to know when it goes live!”
Director Niu shouted excitedly at the camera, while behind him a chaotic party scene unfolded.
Xie Mi rode a unicycle recklessly across the venue; the assistant director followed behind with a red cape, trying to trip her; Qiu Chengye screamed in pain after getting his foot run over by the wheel; Lai Bingxuan laughed mercilessly.
Shen Yiqun’s laughter shook even his eyelashes; Liu Woxing filmed the scene on her phone; Yu Jinzhe watched quietly; Xu Shuangrong and Xiao Jingxi expressed their emotions in the corner.
Amidst all the laughter, the audience wailed with reluctant sadness:
[Love Zi! Will we see you again, Love Zi! Be happy when we meet again, Love Zi! Take me with you, Love Zi!]
[I’ll say a number—1 second—and the second phase will start immediately!!]
[I’m crying, are you satisfied now, you cold-hearted person? I’ll never forgive you!!]
[I just came to ship the CP, but somehow it turned into my life show. Watching Love Observation every day feels like having a group of people with me. I can’t imagine life without it—boohoo.]
[Waiting for phase two!]
[Waiting for phase two!]
[…]
The first phase of Human Love Observation officially wrapped.
As the cameras turned off, the banquet ended.
“Thank you everyone for your hard work during this month of filming. Take this time to rest and adjust for our next shoot.”
“Thanks to the eight guest teachers and all staff. See you next time!”
After farewells, the guests packed up and prepared to leave.
Xie Mi and Diao Mao, carrying numerous bags like fleeing refugees, were stunned by the scene before them when they reached the hotel entrance.
Good grief!
A glance revealed various celebrity business vans, luxury sedans, supercars, and even a professional convoy!
Drivers, housekeepers, and agents from each family were standing ready by the car doors.
So this is the world of the rich and powerful?
“Teacher Xie!”
A familiar voice sounded. Xie Mi turned to see Liu Woxing rolling her suitcase out of the hotel.
“Hi, Liu Woxing!” Xie Mi waved. “Ready to go back?”
“Mm.” Liu Woxing nodded, seemingly wanting to say something, but was interrupted by another voice.
“Miss Liu.”
A butler standing by a luxury car spoke.
He slightly bowed, a respectful stance, yet his tone carried an unspoken pressure.
“Time to get in the car.”
Liu Woxing paused briefly, then pressed her lips together, holding back the rest of her words. She smiled at Xie Mi, nodded lightly, and got into the car.
The butler closed the door, placed her luggage in the trunk, then got into the driver’s seat and drove off.
Liu Woxing sat quietly in the back seat, only catching a faint glimpse of her profile through the window.
Xie Mi watched the luxury car slowly pull away, deep in thought.
Others gradually emerged as well.
“Xie Mi.”
Xiao Jingxi approached. “Ride in my car. I’ll take you, and we can chat on the way.”
Xie Mi didn’t respond, merely watching him as if entertained.
Thinking he was being sincere, Xiao Jingxi continued:
“We’ve been living under the cameras this whole time. Our misunderstandings never got cleared. I want to take this chance to talk to you properly. There are many things you don’t know…”
“Don’t know what?”
Xie Mi smiled.
“You don’t know that you were deceived by Xu Shuangrong’s act and CP-ed with her. You don’t know you were actually a victim. Or that, upon learning the truth, you would regret it so much.”
Xiao Jingxi’s expression changed; he hadn’t expected Xie Mi to know everything.
“If that’s all you want to say, there’s no need.”
Xie Mi lifted a brow lightly.
“You just wanted to justify your own vile actions, and conveniently discovered Xu Shuangrong’s true nature, convincing yourself that everything you did was reasonable. In short, you’re just trying to pass the blame—I get it.”
With a smile, she unveiled Xiao Jingxi’s excuses and, with a bewildered Diao Mao in tow, turned to leave.
Xiao Jingxi, suddenly embarrassed and furious, lunged to grab her arm.
“Xie Mi! You can’t just leave me like this—”
Bang!
A flying stone hit him squarely, causing him to scream in pain.
Xie Mi and Diao Mao turned their heads in unison.
Not far away, Shen Yiqun casually tossed small stones in his hand, a faint smile on his face as he watched Xiao Jingxi.
“Looks like you’ve lost your mind a bit. Let me fix your head.”
“You shouldn’t mind, right?”
“Film Emperor Xiao?”
