Chapter 214
#Xie Mi shot the donkey to the sky
#The CP you shipped has flown
Seeing this abstract trending hashtag, curious netizens all clicked in to take a look. At first, they thought it was just CP fans messing around with jokes, but after clicking—
They realized it was literally flying!!
In the picture, a man and a woman were holding hands as they soared into the sky. They gazed at each other, with not a trace of fear in their eyes.
[Carrying the flag for Seedless Watermelon]: Just asking because I don’t get it, is this from a TV drama shoot?
[A Cup of Cat Paw Slushie]: No drama could film something this beautiful. This is the first time in a dating show I’ve actually felt a sense of destiny.
[I Always Lose When It’s My Turn]: At first I thought the two of them being launched together was a program accident, but then I learned it was part of their mission. So they deliberately let themselves be launched together—makes it even more shippable!
[Pure Boy Highschool Boiling Sheep]: That shot of holding hands mid-air and the underwater hug—both could be used as promotional stills for a drama, I’m not joking!!
[AAA Restroom Professional Repair Sister Li]: Trust me, from now on all dating shows should be filmed to this standard!
[Shit Pouring Over My Head but Still Stirring the Pot]: Finally I get why this CP is so popular—because even in such a crazy show, the two of them still manage to be sweet enough to break out of the circle!
[My Social Anxiety Won’t Let Me Join Groups]: Xie Mi killing it!!
One hand-holding flight and one underwater hug once again sent Xie Mi killing-donkey style trending wildly on Weibo.
The clip of them flying into the sky together and falling into the water was endlessly remixed by CP fans, sweeping across every short-video app, and instantly went viral again.
Meanwhile, in the program, the two in the water were still holding hands tightly.
Shen Moqing lowered his gaze, looking at the person in his arms. In those beautiful peach blossom eyes seemed to be unfathomable emotions, like stars in the night sky.
Her hair drifted in the water, softly brushing past his fingertips. His heart trembled slightly, then pounded like a drum.
Xie Mi also lifted her head, her eyes sparkling with laughter as she looked at him in excitement.
Then her lips moved slightly, silently mouthing:
11, 10, 9…
A faint twitch appeared between Shen Moqing’s brows, then he gave a polite smile.
This kid really doesn’t budge, huh.
Splash—
The two of them surfaced together, and all at once the sounds around them became loud and chaotic again.
“Teacher Xie! Mr. Shen! Are you alright?”
“Because the heart-rate monitors are linked with the catapult chairs, once your heart rate hits 120, the chair automatically launches. Didn’t expect it would fling both of you at once—so dangerous…”
“Are you hurt anywhere? Quick, lifeguards and medics, check the two teachers immediately!”
Unlike the calm underwater, the shore was complete chaos.
Perhaps because Xie Mi had so decisively grabbed Shen Moqing’s hand and jumped with him, the staff mistakenly thought it was an accident.
The other guests were dumbfounded too, still shocked that the chair could launch two people at once.
That force was… pretty strong.
After the lifeguards pulled Xie Mi and Shen Moqing ashore, the medical team instantly stepped in to run a full check-up.
Xie Mi seized the chance to make a hand gesture at Director Niu, signaling that the mission was completed.
Director Niu froze for a second, then suddenly realized.
So it was intentional!!
He had nearly thought it was a real accident and was already imagining how to deal with both fandoms coming after him!
Alright, fine, fine, fine.
Being director for this bunch, he was going to get a heart attack sooner or later!
After the brief interlude, Director Niu announced the results of the round.
“So, the champion of this round is Teacher Xie!”
“And at the same time, the Secret Couple has completed their mission this round, earning their exclusive secret bonus!”
As soon as the words fell, the audience burst into chatter again.
But unlike the previous round’s confusion, this time everyone clearly had suspects in mind.
“The Secret Couple is definitely Liu Woxing and Shen Moqing. I overheard their conversation just now, I bet that’s when they finished their mission. I’ve been saying Liu Woxing’s acting weird today. If you believe me, join me in reporting them.”
Qiu Chengye’s heated gaze locked on Liu Woxing, as if trying to see right through her.
Liu Woxing just shook her head, “Your mouth’s like it’s been smeared with laxative.”
Qiu Chengye: “???”
He instantly exploded, “Did you all hear what she just said?! Does that sound like something she’d normally say? She’s definitely suspicious! She’s the undercover!!”
Having recently studied the book How to Roast Basic Bros into Oblivion, Liu Woxing retorted again:
“Life is tasteless; a toad critiques humanity.”
“Liu Woxing, are you insane?!!”
As expected, Qiu Chengye broke down.
Xu Shuangrong then softly voiced her opinion, “Actually, I think the Secret Couple is Teacher Xie and Brother Jinzhe.”
As soon as she said that, everyone turned toward Xie Mi and Yu Jinzhe.
That pairing was indeed unexpected.
Xie Mi smiled, crossing her arms. “I can only say you’re half right. The Secret Couple does include Yu Jinzhe, but his partner isn’t me.”
Hearing this, Yu Jinzhe’s lips curved in an amused arc. He didn’t deny it.
He really enjoyed the feeling of spinning Xie Mi around in circles.
“Teacher Xie, you’re very smart.”
Xu Shuangrong smiled faintly, “Once discovered, immediately betraying your teammate—that is indeed a higher-level tactic. But unfortunately, Jingxi already saw you and Brother Jinzhe completing a mission.”
At that, she turned toward Xiao Jingxi, gesturing with a smile for him to continue.
Xiao Jingxi gave Xie Mi a meaningful glance.
“Your mission was whispering, wasn’t it?”
Xie Mi’s eyes flickered, a flash of unnatural expression sweeping across her face, before she forced a calm smile.
“If the mission were whispering, would I really do it right in front of you? That’d make me an idiot.”
But the guilt written on her face had already been caught completely by Xiao Jingxi.
His confidence only grew, “Precisely because you think we’d never believe an undercover would complete the mission in front of us—that’s why you tried to reverse-psychology us. Unfortunately, your act wasn’t convincing.”
At this moment, Xiao Jingxi looked every bit the detective incarnate.
One hand in his pocket, standing at ease, lips curved faintly, as though everything was in his grasp.
But a glance at the live-stream comments would tell you otherwise.
It was full of people tearing him down.
[No, her acting was way too good]
[Just thinking Xie is faking makes me laugh hahaha]
[Xiao Jingxi thinks Xie Mi is on the first level, and he’s on the second—but in fact, Xie Mi is already in the stratosphere]
[Bro, what are you even hyping yourself up for?]
[Teacher Xie really has skills—if not for the god-view, even I would’ve been fooled]
[Thanks to Xiao Jingxi for delivering us a rhythm storm. I hereby crown him the third undercover]
