Chapter 35 Life Choices (Seeking Follow-up Reading)

Under the dim light, the surroundings were pitch black.

Chu Hang and Su Jinrou sat opposite each other at the dining table. No staff from the program crew disturbed them. Only a few fixed cameras and hidden microphones were working.

"You have a good attitude. It seems you have been prepared for this."

Su Jinrou looked at Chu Hang, whose eyes were filled with confidence and composure, and chuckled softly, saying, "Are you confident that you can win this ranking competition? I'm just asking casually. If you find it difficult to answer, you can choose not to answer."

"There is definitely confidence."

"If you're afraid before the fight, then you might as well just admit defeat."

Chu Hang did not hesitate and expressed his attitude frankly.

Su Jinrou's eyes flashed with admiration when she heard this: "If you are chosen as the singer to compete, I will be cheering for you in front of the TV on Friday."

The two chatted for a while at the dining table. Chu Hang took the initiative to stand up, put away the dishes, and then took them to the kitchen sink to clean them.

"Eh……"

"Let me do the dishes."

"How can you let the cook wash the dishes?"

Su Jinrou put her coat back on and followed Chu Hang to the kitchen, wanting to take over the dishwashing job from Chu Hang.

"That's true, but isn't today a special case?"

Chu Hang raised his hand to slightly stop Su Jinrou, then said with a smile, "If you're not feeling well, just rest over here. Once you've recovered, I won't fight with you if there's a similar situation again."

Because washing dishes requires water, Chu Hang rolled up his sleeves in advance, exposing half of his strong and sturdy arms. When Su Jinrou took the initiative to step forward to wash the dishes, her hands accidentally touched Chu Hang's arms.

Their skin touched each other, and although it was only a moment's touch, Su Jinrou couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster.

Seeing that she couldn't win against Chu Hang, Su Jinrou simply didn't insist any more. However, she didn't choose to leave either. Instead, she half-leaned not far from the kitchen sink, silently accompanying Chu Hang.

"Sister Jinrou, I remember you said a few days ago that your transition from broadcasting to producing was an accident. Did you ever regret your work as a producer? If you hadn't chosen to change careers, you might have been an excellent host now."

This kind of atmosphere can be said to be a godsend. Chu Hang naturally would not waste such a good opportunity, and took the opportunity to throw a more profound topic to Su Jinrou.

Jiang Shu and Su Jinrou are completely two different types of women. The former is inexperienced in the world, has a simple and pure upbringing, and her emotions are as pure as a blank sheet of paper, so Chu Hang only needs to show her enough preference and provide enough emotional value.

The latter are obviously mature women with rich social experience. It is very likely that their emotional experience is not blank. If you want to get into their hearts, it is obviously not feasible to deal with them in the same way as you dealt with Jiang Shu. The communication must be deep enough to allow each other to blend and resonate with each other in spirit.

"Do you regret it?"

When Su Jinrou heard Chu Hang's question, she subconsciously lowered her head and tucked her neatly-knit hair around her ears. A hint of sadness flashed in her eyes. "There was a time when I did have those feelings. Just like you said, I thought if I hadn't chosen to switch to producing, I might have become an excellent host by now. During that time, I often felt internally drained, but later I gradually figured it out and stopped dwelling on it."

"Oh?"

"Tell me?"

There were clearly only two sets of bowls and chopsticks, but Chu Hang managed to wash them at the speed of ten sets. Chu Hang didn't know how many times he had washed the two pairs of chopsticks. The wooden chopsticks were almost reflecting the light because of Chu Hang's rubbing.

"Life is made up of countless multiple-choice questions. Each seemingly insignificant choice may create a different life. Multiple-choice questions are not judgment questions. There is no right or wrong in multiple-choice questions. So no matter what you choose, there will be regrets, because people always believe that the road not taken will be full of flowers."

"In fact, the flowery path you imagine is just an illusion. Everyone has troubles, every industry has difficulties, and no life is perfect. Instead of wasting your time, it is better to firmly believe that your current choice is the best one. My future will surely be filled with flowers, and the blooming flower path will surely belong to me."

At this moment, Su Jinrou showed her strong inner strength.

"Sister Jinrou, do you believe it?"

Chu Hang looked at Su Jinrou and smiled, "After the show airs, you'll have countless fans just based on your queenly speech."

"Oh?"

"Then I'm overshadowing you, aren't I?"

Su Jinrou raised her eyebrows slightly and joked with a smile.

"It's okay. You've snatched the fangirl away, so be it." Chu Hang shrugged. "Based on my cooking skills, I'm sure there will be a bunch of greedy girls following me after the show airs. Our paths don't conflict."

"Greedy girl?"

Su Jinrou couldn't help laughing: "Why does this name have a northern flavor?"

“I’m from Northeast China.”

"My family is from Inner Mongolia, one of the four northeastern provinces of Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning and Inner Mongolia."

"Sister Jinrou, where are you from?"

Even though Chu Hang had tried his best to delay, he still finished washing the two sets of dishes and chopsticks. He took out the two sets of brand new dishes and chopsticks from the sink and asked Su Jinrou at the same time.

"My family is from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces."

Su Jinrou stood up and followed Chu Hang out of the kitchen.

"So your current workplace is also in Jiangsu and Zhejiang?"

"No, I'm currently in Yanjing."

"What a coincidence, I'm in Yanjing too."

"It seems like quite a few people on the show are in Yanjing."

The two chatted as they walked, and soon came to a fork in the road.

"Chu Hang, thank you for today."

Su Jinrou turned around and thanked Chu Hang.

"You're welcome."

Chu Hang waved his hand: "We are roommates, we should help each other."

"See you tomorrow then, good night?"

"good night!"

……

In the next two days, the program team did not arrange any special procedures for Chu Hang and other guests. The guests were basically free to move around and choose to contact guests of the opposite sex who they wanted to get to know better.

During this period, Chu Hang lived a very regular life. After getting up at nine o'clock every day, he would practice singing on the balcony for about two hours. When it was almost noon, he would take the initiative to go to the kitchen to make a hearty lunch for everyone, and by the way, complete his daily camera KPI to avoid going too far and attracting Gu Yu's interview.

After lunch, Chu Hang would return to his room and start typing until the effect of the memory pills completely wore off. Then he would walk out of the room and go to the restaurant to have dinner with everyone.

Because everyone pays great attention to body management, people like Shen Qingyuan, Su Jinrou, and Jin Yuzhe do not eat dinner after lunch, so Dong Xiong is basically responsible for dinner. He simply stir-fries two dishes and heats up the leftover dishes from lunch.

After dinner, Chu Hang would go to the gym to exercise as usual. Jiang Shu had also developed a habit of following Chu Hang to the gym every day and always insisted on attending her Cantonese class. As they spent time together day and night, the two of them got along more and more naturally. The seeds that were planted on the beach a few days ago gradually took root and sprouted without them noticing.

After daily exercise, Chu Hang and Jiang Shu would occasionally go for a walk on the beach, or play some group games with Hu Jing, Su Jinrou and others.

Speaking of Su Jinrou, ever since that late-night chat, they had inexplicably developed a tacit understanding with each other. They might not communicate much on weekdays, but Chu Hang could clearly feel that the "shell" that Su Jinrou had always been wrapped in was slightly removed in front of him, and occasionally she could reveal some of her true self.

As for Shen Qingyuan, Chu Hang still kept a sense of distance. He would avoid contact if possible and would not communicate if possible. Only when encountering unavoidable situations would the two of them have a brief exchange of words, and Chu Hang would maintain a strong sense of distance.

However, although the two of them rarely communicated, Chu Hang could clearly feel that Shen Qingyuan was trying hard to suppress a certain emotion. The more indifferent, distant, and indifferent Chu Hang appeared, the stronger the emotion that Shen Qingyuan suppressed became.

Chu Hang found this not difficult to understand, because he had traveled through time seamlessly, so his attitude towards Shen Qingyuan changed drastically.

Obviously, nothing happened between the two of them, but Chu Hang's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees. This drastic change in attitude gave Shen Qingyuan a strong sense of detachment.

In addition to this, Chu Hang suddenly became dazzling. He amazed the audience with two rock songs on the stage of "Singer" and showed his superb cooking skills beyond everyone's imagination in the Love House. The most important thing is that there is a perfect girl beside Chu Hang, who even she feels inferior to. The two of them are inseparable and hang around in front of her every day.

For various reasons, Shen Qingyuan's mentality gradually began to become unbalanced...
