Love? I'm reborn and I just want to get rewards

Chapter 380 I Can’t Give Her What She Wants Most
"Yueyue baby, I'm afraid I can't be your bridesmaid. My company has arranged for me to participate in a dating variety show, which is Penguin's flagship program and coincides with our cooperative project..."

Chen Nuanhan and Gu Jiuyue held hands and faced each other, speaking apologetically.

"Dating variety show?" Gu Jiuyue was stunned. "You're the female guest?"

"Yeah." She looked expectant. "I heard that the male guests are all very outstanding. I also want to give it a try and see if I can find my own happiness."

Having said this, Gu Jiuyue could only wish: "Then I wish you all your wishes come true."

After a pause, she raised her hand and touched Chen Nuanhan's cheek, and said seriously: "If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. You have to be happy, but don't force it."

"Okay, don't worry, don't you know me yet?"

Chen Nuanhan was very relaxed, smiled brightly, and then patiently helped Gu Jiuyue sort out the wedding procedures.

After the two separated, Chen Nuanhan suddenly turned around and stared at the Xingyu Building, feeling mixed emotions.

In this life, she did not choose the path of a financial blogger as she did in her previous life.

On the contrary, she joined Tianyi Investment in her junior year, starting out as a slave and working her way up to become the head of a department.

At work, she relies on her natural sixth sense and is particularly good at handling interpersonal relationships. She is able to communicate efficiently with entrepreneurial teams and evaluate them, so she thrives in Tianyi.

In her personal life, she and Gu Jiuyue became besties, and she was close to Su Huai but not too close, maintaining a moderate friendship of "I clearly love you but I will never disturb you".

She knows what she is waiting for, and is extremely patient and resilient. She slowly enriches herself and waits for the right opportunity.

But...the situation was deviating further and further from what she had expected.

Gu Jiuyue’s recovery was the first surprise, Xing Yu’s explosive development was the second surprise, and then an irresistible force was added together, making all her efforts in vain.

give up?

But why? I waited so long!

continue?

But what's the point? The closer I get, the more desperate I feel.

Chen Nuanhan was rarely confused. For almost two whole months, she was extremely upset and at one point wanted to hide back in her small hometown and spend the rest of her life in this small town.

But she is not an ordinary woman after all, and in the end, she decided to fight to the death.

The method is... to participate in a dating variety show.

She needed a stage where she could fully display herself without appearing deliberate, without arousing anyone's suspicion, and yet fully test Su Huai's thoughts.

In reality, she no longer had enough opportunities to meet Su Huai alone.

On the one hand, Su Huai was too busy, and on the other hand, her identity was no longer suitable for her to do anything without Gu Jiuyue's permission.

Staying by Gu Jiuyue's side is both a brilliant move to prevent being thrown away and a huge shackle.

Today, she no longer has any other choice.

Therefore, with the attitude of being independent if she fails, she submitted her information to the program team of Heart Signal through Xingyu.

Either succeed, clarify Su Huai's ideas, retreat to advance, and get a result.

Either you fail, but you build up your personal IP through the show, then turn around and reap the traffic dividend, earning enough wealth to build your personal career.

"I don't have time to waste any more."

So she thought.

"I will never be able to catch up with Su Huai and Gu Jiuyue even if I try my best in my whole life, but I am not a loser who relies on others to live. Even if I am doomed to fail, I will leave with my head held high and be my own goddess."

Look, actually she knew that she couldn't win, but this was Chen Nuanhan. Even if she lost miserably, she had to save face.

When the day comes that she resigns, she will proudly tell everyone: I am not a deserter, I just found a career that is more worthy of my attention, so I took the initiative to let go.

But she knew the truth clearly.

Therefore, with deep melancholy in her eyes, perfect image, cheerful and generous attitude, she became the goddess in many people's minds as soon as Heart-beating 7 was launched.

Most of the people who watch this show are here to support the couple, but after two episodes, a voice began to spread on the Internet - it feels like no one is worthy of my Sister Nuan.

In fact, the male guests are all good. The top student Gao Ge is enthusiastic and sincere, the second-generation rich Oscar is loyal and persistent, Tomo is sunny and handsome, and Min Die is mature and has high emotional intelligence...

But Sister Nuan easily dominated everyone.

In the first episode, when she appeared in the villa wearing a tight leather jacket cosplaying as Catwoman, the men were shocked and the women were silent.

That exotic face had an indescribable allure, and just one shot of her making the show a hot topic.

But she didn't flirt with anyone on purpose. She just sat there lazily, with most of her attention focused on herself, as if she was thinking about something. Only a little bit of her attention was scattered outside, and she seemed to be observing everyone.

Maybe aura really exists. She just sat there quietly, and she felt like she was a level higher than everyone else.

No matter they were the second generation of rich people or the daughter of a wealthy family, they all looked extremely uneasy in comparison with her.

Then, just when the atmosphere seemed to be getting more awkward, she took the initiative to break the ice, and soon, she had led the most outgoing people to start talking.

In the observation room, the celebrity observers participating in the recording said confidently: "Chen Nuanhan's level is very high."

Yang Chaoyue seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Yang Di noticed it keenly and immediately cue her: "What's wrong, Chaoyue?"

"Um, I've met Sister Nuan..." She let out a little reveal, "We had an important project before, and she was the one who confirmed and decided to invest in it."

In fact, Tianyi generally does not get involved in Starry Sky Film and Television's projects, unless they are annual priorities, in which case Tianyi + Tingxun will serve as fixed external investors.

In this way, the review by Tianyi is almost just a formality and has no importance at all.

However, it was Chen Nuanhan who led the team every time. In addition, some people knew that she was Mr. Su’s classmate, so naturally, Starry Sky spread the news about Chen Nuanhan in a mysterious way.

Xiao Chaoyue is very smart and knows what can be said and what cannot be said, so he just said this and stopped there.

But the stars knew how to perform well, and they immediately shouted: "Wow! Such a young investor? Isn't that amazing?"

Rao Xueman sighed: "Either they have strong abilities, or they have a good family background, or even both."

"Besides, they are so beautiful. She and Le Yan are really the kind of beauties that would make any girl's heart flutter when they see them."

The stars no longer have in-depth conversations, but clips like this are enough.

In terms of pain news, the main focus of the first issue is Chen Nuanhan. After a lot of press releases, all kinds of super white, rich and beautiful women, strong women, and genius investors were arranged.

But in fact, including her internship in her junior year, she has only been working at Tianyi for 4 years. However, in the past year and a half, she has indeed personally negotiated many specific projects as an executor. She is well-known in the venture capital circle and has become a good investor.

In the first episode of guessing each other's occupations, she introduced herself as "a newcomer in the investment industry and a team leader of the Tianyi Investment Project Team", very modestly.

None of the guests present understood her value, and Weng Qingya asked "foolishly": "Nuannuan, how much is your annual salary?"

Chen Nuanhan smiled and winked at her mischievously: "Before coming here, I asked the program team for a guest profile. Qingya, I know your uncle~~~"

Weng Qingya's face changed and she froze there.

The program crew was very clever and secretly gave her a close-up and edited it out, creating a "female competition" atmosphere.

As a result, within less than two days, during the second episode, all the girls were completely obedient to Chen Nuanhan, and the female competition ended before it even began.

After two episodes of the show, Chen Nuanhan became a hot topic and her goal of becoming famous was achieved.

But in terms of love, things are not going well.

The academic master Gao Ge fell in love with the pure and delicate Weng Qingya at first sight. Oscar chatted with Chen Nuanhan for a few words and then decisively turned around to pursue Le Yan. Zhao, T, and Min all wrote letters to her, but no one dared to take the lead because they were timid.

The male guests in this episode are not stupid. The only fool went straight to the green tea. The rest of the men are in a dilemma of "knowing that the chances are slim but eager to make a move but helpless". And Chen Nuanhan's first letter was written to Brother Gao.

Just one sentence: "You look a bit like a friend of mine."

Just this one letter has built up tens of thousands of floors in the program’s super topic.

Netizens speculated: "That person must be Sister Nuan's first love."

"Alas, I don't know which bastard is so lucky to make Sister Nuan miss him so much..."

"I'm sorry, it's just me."

"tui!"

……

This season of Heart-beating was unsurprisingly popular. The male and female guests were of extremely high quality and there were a lot of topics. It topped the variety show popularity list after only two episodes.

Then Chen Nuanhan remained on the hot search list and never left.

Xing Yu did not contribute much, but the popularity was real.

Her exotic appearance is not inferior to Reba Nazha.

Her unique hearty smile is generous and charming.

She manages her time very well, working, recording, socializing, and reading. Although she is very busy, she appears very calm.

She never talked nonsense and always spoke with substance, and soon became the center of life in the villa.

She is not picky about the male guests and praises everyone's strengths fairly, but she never goes on a date with the same person a second time. She seems close to them, but in fact she is distant.

She is not a good cook, but she is very good at washing dishes and doing housework. She can appreciate red wine and champagne, and occasionally she will pick up a whole can of beer to quench her thirst.

She looks particularly capable when she is busy working with glasses on, and looks even more lazy when she is lazily leaning on the sofa and looking at the sky.

In the eyes of the audience, she is a mature, extremely mysterious and powerful woman, but in the chat she admitted: "I have never been in a relationship, don't ask me what kind of boyfriend I want to find, what feels right is right."

After six episodes, her feelings have not changed at all. Star observers have been breaking up one couple after another, and fanatical fans have been shouting: "My sister Nuan is beautiful on her own, these male guests are not worthy of her at all."

While shouting, I also look forward to her interaction with everyone.

Because it is very interesting, it can always create different sparks, and it is not limited to men and women.

Together with Brother Gao, we chatted about the in-depth application of existing algorithms in different fields, as well as the attributes of the final stage of application implementation, and encouraged him to dig deeper if he had good ideas.

With Oscar, I talked about "the quality requirements and preferences for actors from the perspective of investors", and praised him for his good vision and his cheerfulness and family rapport.

As for Weng Qingya, he would tease her whenever he had nothing to do, sometimes showing concern for her and sometimes criticizing her, just like he was petting a pet.

Le Yan mostly helped and encouraged the little girl. Every time the little girl came back from a date, she would review the past. Several of her hot comments went viral, and netizens shouted: "If I had such a military advisor when I was in school, why would I worry about not being able to fall in love?"

"Sister Nuan, please start the class. I really want to listen to your emotional teaching!"

At first glance, this matter seems quite funny. How crazy is it that a girl who has never been in a relationship teaches others how to fall in love?

But this is the norm in modern life and is in line with the spirit of abstract entertainment.

Moreover, Chen Nuanhan might be a wholesaler of brushes. He is very skilled and gives people the impression that he is extremely smart, rational, sharp and perceptive. Every word he says is right and he sits high up in the clouds.

Netizens are increasingly curious: "Who on earth can make Sister Nuan's heart flutter?"

Soon, an alumnus of Beijing Normal University came out to reveal: "Chen Nuanhan is a very famous goddess in our school. She has always had someone she likes, a very famous male god in our school."

He didn't mention Su Huai's name because it would be blocked if he did.

But the omnipotent netizens finally found out that Sister Nuan’s secret crush was the man of destiny who had briefly become popular on the Internet five years ago.

Then, as they dug deeper, they found Xingyu, and also dragged in Pei Shuyu, Yan Mengqing, Chu Changkuo, Quanquan, and Yang Chaoyue.

Gradually, related topics began to appear in Su Huai's circle of friends.

Among classmates: Wow, Chen Nuanhan has also become a famous internet celebrity, our class is really full of talented people!

Among the alumni: Wow, my sour plum soup goddess, from the small window in the school cafeteria to the coolest female guest of Heart-Stirring 7, she is still her!
Inside Xingyu: There are several good talents in this season of Heartbeat, do you want to try to sign them?
Mom: Ouch! Why is Nuan Nuan looking for a date on the show? Pipi, you are not sorry for me and Yueyue, right?!
Xiao Gu also started following the show, and whenever he had some free time, he would open his tablet and take a look.

In such an environment, it was impossible for Su Huai not to know, nor was it possible for him to pretend not to know.

That day, Xiao Gu nestled in Su Huai's arms and clicked on the latest episode of the show. Halfway through, Le Yan asked Chen Nuanhan: "Sister Nuan, confession night is coming soon. I'm particularly curious about one thing: what kind of confession would you accept?"

"Confession is just a ritual. If we can really be together, there is no need to confess."

Chen Nuanhan smiled and replied slowly: "So if that person is wrong, I will not accept any form of confession. If that person is right, then as long as he sends a signal, I will take the initiative to throw myself into his arms."

Gu Jiuyue suddenly turned around and glanced at Su Huai.

Gou Huai was panicking inside, but on the surface he was as calm as an old dog: "Wife, what are you looking at me for?"

The word "wife" made Gu Jiuyue smile, and she replied in a babyish voice: "Don't play dumb, Nuannuan is asking you for a signal!"

This daughter-in-law is so smart...

Gou Huai was sweating profusely and resolutely denied it: "I'm not a traffic light, where do all the signals come from?"

Gu Jiuyue gave him a kiss as a reward, and then sighed, "Actually, Nuannuan is quite pitiful. She coaxed me for so many years just for you..."

Gou Huai stared at the screen absentmindedly, and suddenly said, "She is quite mature now? We haven't contacted each other for a long time, and she has changed a lot."

"puff!"

Gu Jiuyue was so amused that she burst out laughing and stopped making things difficult for him.

On the screen, Le Yan asked in astonishment: "Sister Nuan, you are so brave, but you still can't win over your secret crush?"

"I didn't know much at the time."

Chen Nuanhan replied casually: "Whether it's a man or a woman, the arrogance of youth will eventually cost you the price. I'm not an isolated case, there's nothing strange about it, you must not learn from me."

"Sister Nuan, you are so open-minded."

Le Yan was impressed, and so were the audience.

Such a beautiful goddess openly admits that it is her fault. This can really arouse men's white moonlight complex and make girls feel unfair for her.

Seeing this, Gu Jiuyue suddenly said, "She told me that she wanted to sign with Xingyu and create a personal account when she has time."

Su Huai was stunned: "When did it happen?"

“Just before the show.”

"Not resigning?"

"She's not resigning. She's continuing to invest as her main business and managing the account in her spare time. She's already found an assistant. Guess who it is?"

Su Huai quickly thought about the girls in the e-commerce class and thought of one person: "Shu Shengnan?"

"So smart~~~" Gu Jiuyue patted him again, raised her head and asked: "Then will you sign it?"

"Sign it." Su Huai did not deliberately avoid it. "It's a win-win situation, why stop it? After the show, her traffic will be enough to sign an S-level contract."

"Yeah." Xiao Gu nodded, his voice gradually lowered, "I can't give her what she wants most, so if I have to settle for the next best thing, I hope she can shine."

Su Huai hugged Xiao Gu tightly, stroking her hair and cheeks, without trying to persuade her or saying much.
