Chapter 2037: My Wife Keeps Throwing Herself Into My Arms Every Day 27

Variety Show Day 4.

Whether it was the new member joining or yesterday's half-day date choice, the atmosphere in the cottage changed.

Contrastingly, the dead‑enemy duo who initially refused to even talk are now improving at a visible pace, thanks in part to Jin Chen's fatherly‑like meddling.

"Good morning, guests!"

Gou Ge reappeared in the living room, after swapping back the original director, and even his hosting enthusiasm increased considerably.

After all, not everyone likes there being a dark secret among the guests.

"After these few days of bonding, your mutual understanding has improved a lot, so today's game theme is: Trust! Please move to the backyard, guests!"

The backyard, set up overnight by the Program Team, looks colorful and childishly fun, but when it comes to trust between people, even a strand of hair tells you it won't be that simple.

At least it doesn't match the Program Team's taste for melodrama.

Gou Ge stood on the log bridge reciting the rules; to stir emotions, his gestures were a bit exaggerated, and the bullet comments were all laughter.

"To welcome the new guest, before today's game begins we will hold a rematch‑pairing choice: all eight guests choose simultaneously, and if they match they become today's CP."

"If multiple people choose the same target, we open the competition arena for a runoff among those with the most votes. The remaining guests automatically form pairs."

: Here we go again, another melodramatic choice!

: Mindlessly guessing, the lovebirds pair pick each other!

: Jin Yingdi probably won't choose the new guest, no no no!

: I'm more worried about the older couple…… I feel their relationship is on the verge of collapsing.

Staff handed over the selectors; after Gou Ge counted down three‑two‑one, the guests pressed their choice numbers simultaneously.

The selection results appeared on the projection screen in the yard.

Jin Chen and Qiao Yu linked to each other, Xu Jia and Chen Cheng linked to each other.

"Oh……" Qiao Yu saw Chu Yi's line gradually linking with Ning Tong's, shocked to the point of gritting her teeth.

Hu Shi's single line went to Chu Yi, while Jin Lai still chose Jin Chen, similar to the half‑day date situation.

Jin Chen glanced at Jin Lai with annoyance.

"Oh dear, I want to compete fairly with Qiao Yu." Jin Lai chuckled and gave Jin Chen a wink.

Qiao Yu's attention snapped back, and she gripped Jin Chen's hand tighter.

: Ahhh what are you doing!! Chu Yi won't really be attracted to Ning Tong, right?

: What spell is the older couple under—could a little novelty make the elders betray love……

: Ah, don't forget this is just the show's rule—if you get bored, swap partners; since you're not married, joining the show means you accept the rule by default.

: …Oh no, when the show first aired Hu Shi posted a video saying they were invited by the Program Team to be the control group…… sad.

: I'm even more curious that the new guest actually chose Jin Yingdi! Hahaha Qiao Yu's wife's face changed instantly.

: Jin Chen: Are there too many rivals for me on this show!

Gou Ge, watching the bustle without minding the fuss, said: "Then now please, the several guests who chose the same person, give reasons why that person should choose you! The competition includes but is not limited to intimate actions that can be shown on camera~"

Jin Lai bumped right up to Jin Chen's face; even in this heat he was still extremely flamboyant, saying, "I'm young, good‑looking, and I know how to cherish people—of course I should be paired with you, you blockhead~"

Blockhead‑natured Jin Chen: "……"

"I feel like hitting you." Jin Chen said calmly.

Qiao Yu's emotions shifted subtly in an instant; thinking of Jin Chen's promise last night, her jealousy was slightly suppressed.

He shook Jin Chen's hand lightly, completely free of any guilt about copying others' answers.

"Brother, I'm young, good‑looking, and know how to cherish people too."

To be more convincing, Qiao Yu flashed an unprecedented bright smile at Jin Chen, as if midsummer flowed through his radiant eyes.

Jin Chen then turned, his gaze focused on Qiao Yu; a smile appeared in his usually stern brows, and the back of his hand brushed her cheek.

"Of course I'll only choose you."

Jin Lai stared for a moment, gave Jin Chen an odd glance, almost writing on his face, "Hey, they call you brother and you just accept it."

Jin Chen's expression didn't change, and he refused to accept Jin Lai's accusation.

Qiao Yu's heart fluttered like a startled deer; she didn't notice Jin Lai's gaze at all, lowered her head and bumped Jin Chen's shoulder, muttering, "Your smile is totally against the rules."

The ultimate weapon is still that ultimate weapon; Xiao Qiao couldn't resist at all, being flirted with to the point of being unable to Fu Xi.

〖Today's Mission 1: Make the mission target jealous for you. 〗

Qiao Yu was stunned instantly, 〖Is this something I can control! 〗

〖Host, keep going! ^-^〗

Over here, Xiao Qiao was racking her brains, while over there the shuraba was equally intense.

Chu Yi's pairing had always involved hesitation; after seeing the connection result clearly, he rare‑ly showed a clueless expression and immediately explained to Hu Shi.

"I…… I promised Ning Tong yesterday that his ankle isn't healed yet, so if there are more physical games later I'll help him."

Ning Tong lowered his head, wringing his fingers as he looked at Hu Shi, sounding aggrieved: "Hu Ge, sorry, but I really need Chu Ge‑ge."

Hu Shi: "……"

Hu Shi ignored Ning Tong, merely looking at Chu Yi and asking: "Do you remember promising me before the show that no matter what happens, you wouldn't change your choice of partner?"

He suddenly found it hard to understand this person he'd known for nearly seven years.

Chu Yi is always soft‑hearted; he of course knows this, but time and again, even his soft‑heartedness gets mixed with other things.

Hu Shi had never felt his eyes were so intolerant of a speck.

Chu Yi came to his senses, stepped forward two steps and took Hu Shi's hand: "Wife, I……"

"All right, Ning Tong is injured; wanting to help him is understandable—go ahead."

Hu Shi pulled back his hand, and just then saw Jin Lai walking over.

Jin Lai exclaimed, "Turns out my one‑day lover today is so good‑looking—can I call you Xiao Hu Gege?"

He deliberately learned Ning Tong's affected, coquettish tone of voice.

Hu Shi was stunned for a moment, …… "Can."

As soon as those words were spoken, Ning Tong's expression changed several times; the other few people almost couldn't hold back their laughter, and Jin Chen also let out a low laugh, not giving her any face.

: Hahaha, I died laughing, Jin Lai blended in so fast!

: Even a younger boyfriend isn't out of the question! Chu Yi repeatedly refused to choose Hu Shi, and I feel heartbroken.

: If there's any contact later in the game, I can't even imagine how awkward it would be.

: So this is the correct way to pair the new guests, hahaha.

Gou Ge came over from the corner, "Looks like everyone paired up successfully! Then let's hurry up and start today's first date game!"

"Two teams compete, one person blindfolded, under the lover's guidance they navigate obstacles and a log bridge; falling into the pool counts as a game loss, and the pair with the shortest time wins."

The first team needing to be blindfolded are Qiao Yu and Hu Shi.

After putting on the blindfold with the lover's help, they know nothing about what's happening outside.

They also don't realize that the guide actually has another hidden task.
