Chapter 174
The Invitation Segment Continues
Xie Mi’s Weibo post instantly blew up under trending topics.
[Too Handsome, Please Spare Us]: Well said! There’s nothing wrong with bravely expressing your thoughts. If you want to refuse, refuse—that’s your personal right!
[Slap a Mistress]: Ahhh, Xie Mi completely spoke to my heart. If even expressing your own thoughts gets you snubbed, then what use is keeping such a person around?
[Dark Crawler]: Some people in the comments are so scary. Never mind whether Qiu Chengye’s invitation was presumptuous, even Director Niu said during the rules explanation that refusal was allowed. So why can’t Liu Woxing refuse? Those saying Liu Woxing deserved to be scolded—do they even have brains?
[Imperial Knife Chef]: Just watching this clip, it’s obvious Qiu Chengye has too much ego. The girl just refused slightly, and he instantly threw a tantrum. Why is nobody calling him a master of sudden mood swings?
[Can’t Sleep Vegetables]: Qiu Chengye is too emotionally unstable. If I were Liu Woxing, I’d be scared to death. Besides, Liu Woxing has been very polite—she hasn’t completely rejected him, just thought the two-day, one-night plan was too much, and even invited him to a meal. What’s the problem?
[My Beard to the Waist]: Even if God came down, it would still be Qiu Chengye’s fault!
The discussion on Weibo raged on, while the livestream chat filled with words like “Feeling sorry for Sister Liu.”
The show had to continue.
After that suffocating scene, Director Niu quickly cued the second guest who had chosen a public invitation to go on stage.
Lai Bingxuan stepped up with a microphone.
“Yesterday the production team said we must invite a male guest for a date, but I really don’t fancy any of them.”
“Then I’ll invite a female guest instead.”
Director Niu: “?”
Wasn’t it said that only male guests could be invited?
Ignoring Director Niu frantically signaling from the sidelines, Lai Bingxuan looked at Xie Mi.
“When are you free?”
Director Niu gave up completely.
“Me?” Xie Mi pointed at herself, puzzled.
“Yes.”
Lai Bingxuan lifted her chin lightly.
“Aren’t you going to be my most loyal servant? I’m going shopping, and you’ll carry my bags. I’ll pay you then.”
Xie Mi’s eyes lit up immediately, almost spinning 360 degrees in the air, wanting to kneel before Lai Bingxuan.
“At your command!!”
“Alright, we’ll coordinate later.” Lai Bingxuan was satisfied.
But after finishing her invitation, she didn’t leave the stage, still holding the microphone. After thinking for two seconds, she looked at Liu Woxing.
“When are you free?”
Liu Woxing, quietly observing, was momentarily stunned. “…Me?”
Lai Bingxuan nodded nonchalantly.
“Yes, it never said you could only invite one person, right? I don’t like quiet environments, so I invited both you and Xie Mi. The three of us will go shopping together.”
Actually, she was slightly bending the truth.
Her original plan had been to invite Xie Mi. She didn’t like quiet environments, and with Xie Mi there, it wouldn’t be too quiet.
But seeing Liu Woxing sitting there looking a bit lonely, she decided to include her.
Three people having fun together was fine anyway.
Liu Woxing’s eyes flickered, and she instinctively glanced at Xie Mi before gently nodding.
“I should be free. We can discuss the timing later.”
“Alright, it’s settled then. I’ve finished inviting. Next!” Lai Bingxuan cheerfully left the stage, passing by Xu Shuangrong and satisfiedly noticing her ugly expression.
She also successfully isolated Xu Shuangrong—well done.
[Ahhhh Lai Lai, you’re such a little cake!]
[Sister Lai is tough on the outside but soft inside. She probably invited Sister Liu out of concern. Girl friendships make me cry.]
[These three, lock in the best friendship vibes!]
[Never thought of this combination, but it seems pretty good?]
[Hahaha Xu Shuangrong’s expression seems to be cracking.]
[This proves, being kind is always worth it.]
Xu Shuangrong didn’t say anything more, just enviously glanced at the three girls, then lowered her eyes in disappointment.
“Next—Mr. Shen!”
The called guest hadn’t reacted yet, but Xie Mi, excited, patted him on the arm.
“It’s your turn! Remember: you invite me, I refuse. I invite you, you refuse. That way, neither of us has to film a vlog, and we skip an assignment over the break. Perfect~”
From her actions, it was clear she and Shen Yiqun were already in cahoots.
Though she lowered her voice, the microphone still captured it clearly.
[What? You brat, what are you doing?!]
[No way!!!]
[Director Niu!! I must report Lady Xie for secretly conspiring, she must be punished!!]
[Noooooooo!!!]
Fans in the chat, aware of Xie Mi’s intentions, wailed, trying to appeal to her conscience.
But Xie Mi had no conscience at this moment; her eyes sparkled with excitement at the idea of skipping assignments over the break.
Shen Yiqun simply looked at her with a gentle smile, not responding directly. He softly said,
“I’ll go on stage.”
Then he took the microphone and walked up.
Xie Mi below was ready to dramatically stand up and shout, “I refuse!”
But the man on stage didn’t act as she expected.
His first words were:
“Teacher Xie, don’t refuse yet.”
Caught off guard, Xie Mi blinked. “?”
“No need to wake up early. Sleep in until noon. I’ll pick you up at 12, take you for hotpot, then to the internet café to play games. When hungry, we’ll go to the night market and try everything. Afterwards, I’ll drop you home directly—you can go straight to bed.
“I’ll film the whole trip, edit the vlog, and post it on Weibo.”
He paused, his stunning peach blossom eyes captivating her completely, a soft glow shimmering.
“So, can you not refuse now?”
Already shaken by the perfect itinerary, Xie Mi was completely conquered by the deliberate charm in his gaze.
She immediately threw all thoughts of skipping homework over the break aside and excitedly declared:
“I agree!!!”
Shen Yiqun’s lips curved slightly.
Little Teacher Xie—completely under control.
