My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

should be.

but……

Looking into An Youyu's clear eyes, she couldn't muster any anger at all.

"Ahem... An Youyu, why don't you reconsider? I'm very strong."

Despite Zhuang Ling'er's renewed efforts, An Youyu did not change her mind and smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I refuse."

Zhuang Ling'er clicked her tongue, her helpless expression eliciting bursts of laughter.

He Shui smiled and reminded her, "Ling'er, An Youyu has clearly rejected you. You can't try to win her back anymore. Please make a different choice."

Zhuang Ling'er sighed, "Teacher He, I'm choosing Lin Mo for the second time."

Lin Mo shook his head. "I refuse."

Zhuang Ling'er: "..."

The cameraman gave Zhuang Ling'er a close-up of her face, and at that moment, she practically had the word "speechless" etched on her face.

Hearing the laughter from the audience, He Shui probably wouldn't have been able to keep his composure if he hadn't been so professional. Normally, no one would refuse Zhuang Ling'er's invitation.

But the truth is that Zhuang Ling'er was rejected twice in a row, and neither An Youyu nor Lin Mo gave a reason for the rejection.

Zhuang Ling'er said with a bitter face, "Teacher He, aren't you going to do anything about this? Are you suggesting that whoever I choose will reject me? Don't I have any pride?"

He Shui laughed, "Ling'er, I can't control that. That's how the program rules are. You can choose someone else, and they can refuse. It's okay. You can hold a grudge against the person who rejected you and get revenge later."

Zhuang Ling'er: "..."

Laughter erupted from the crowd.

He Shui's frank and candid way of chatting is really hard to keep up with.

"Teacher He, please don't make jokes like that."

Meeting Zhuang Ling'er's resentful gaze, He Shui smiled even more happily, "Alright, alright, Lin Mo has also rejected you, please continue to choose."

Zhuang Ling'er sighed softly, her gaze sweeping over the remaining eighteen people before finally making her choice, "Teacher He, I choose Shen Wangmian."

The next second, Shen Wangmian's voice rang out, "I refuse."

Zhuang Ling'er's face twitched.

Selecting people?

What a load of rubbish!

These people seem to have planned it all out in advance, deciding who to choose and who to refuse. How is she supposed to play the game now?

He Shui stopped joking; this situation was truly unexpected. "Ahem, Mr. Shen Wangmian, could you explain why you refused?"

Shen Wangmian glanced at Zhuang Ling'er and said in a flat tone, "She doesn't seem to be very smart."

Zhuang Ling'er: "..."

You have to destroy a person's spirit before you can kill them, right?

How is she not very smart?

She was just choosing someone; if she refused, she refused. Why did she start making personal attacks?

The audience burst into laughter continuously, and even many of the production crew members had smiles on their faces.

Zhuang Ling'er took a deep breath and gave He Shui a reproachful look. "Teacher He, it's all your fault for having to ask. Is everything alright now?"

He Shui looked embarrassed and half-jokingly said to the celebrity team, "You've all seen it, these members of the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking are no pushovers. Now Ling'er has set an example for you to see their personalities, so you should be mentally prepared."

The celebrities looked at each other, exchanging bewildered glances.

As He Shui said, Zhuang Ling'er's three rejections are enough to show how arrogant the members of the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking are.

Fortunately, Zhuang Ling'er was not rejected the fourth time and successfully teamed up with a boy named Qi Xingzhi.

The celebrities who were choosing their teammates were very conscientious and automatically filtered out An Youyu, Lin Mo, and Shen Wangmian. As a result, no one was rejected.

As more and more people successfully formed teams, Lin Mo leaned close to An Youyu's ear and asked, "Little Yu'er, who do you want to team up with?"

"With you."

An Youyu's answer made Lin Mo smile wryly, "Little ancestor, we can't team up."

"I know."

"Then you still..."

"It's just a thought, thinking about it isn't illegal."

An Youyu smiled with a hint of naivety as she explained, "The reason I rejected that celebrity named Zhuang Ling'er earlier is because I think she's a very calculating person. I don't like dealing with people like that; it's exhausting."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo's expression gradually became strange. "Well... Little Fish, I'm not exactly naive either."

"Different."

An Youyu shook her head slightly, "No matter how cunning you are, you are still my boyfriend."

The words had barely left his mouth when Lin Mo objected, "What boyfriend? That's all in the past. I'm your fiancé now."

"Pooh--"

An Youyu's cheeks flushed. "We've only set a date for the engagement, but we haven't had the ceremony yet, so you're still just my boyfriend, not my fiancé."

"Which celebrity would you like to team up with?"

Lin Mo's lips twitched, and she helplessly skipped the topic of her fiancé. There was nothing she could do; the truth was just as this little thing had said: he was not her fiancé yet.

An Youyu looked up at the person opposite her. "Let it be."

Lin Mo tentatively asked, "May I make a request?"

Suddenly, An Youyu seemed to have guessed something, and a charming smile bloomed on her flawless face, "Not teaming up with a male celebrity?"

Lin Mo blushed, realizing his thoughts had been exposed. Before he could explain, An Youyu's voice rang out again, "Don't worry, I never planned to team up with a male celebrity. You know, I don't like being around men except for you."

"So nice."

Lin Mo habitually reached out and ruffled her hair, unaware that a camera was pointed at them. The cameraman, seeing such a loving scene, gave the two a close-up shot on a large screen.

In an instant, gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd.

Wow! So pleasing to the eye!

"Let go of your dog paws!"

"My goddess...why do you even want to be in a relationship? I support you living a solitary life forever."

"Does it feel like a real-life idol drama?"

Chapter 864 focuses on honesty.

"Cough...cough!"

He Shui walked up to Lin Mo and An Youyu while coughing.

Both of them were completely bewildered by He Shui's arrival, and couldn't help but exchange a glance, neither of them knowing what was going on.

Finally, Lin Mo spoke up and asked, "Why is Teacher He here if he's not hosting a show?"

It would have been better if they hadn't asked, because this question made everyone who was enjoying the sweet moments burst into laughter.

He Shui looked resentful and pointed to the large screen behind the two of them, "Come on, take a look at this first."

Lin Mo and An Youyu turned around and looked behind them. The big screen was playing a replay of the scene where Lin Mo had rubbed An Youyu's head.

In an instant, An Youyu's face turned red.

Lin Mo, on the other hand, waved his hand calmly, adjusted the microphone to his lips, and complained, "Are the cameramen so free? Shouldn't the camera be on the star contestants at this moment? What are they doing with us?"

Cameraman: "..."

He Shui rolled her eyes. "Lin Mo, you're really bold. Criticizing the cameraman in front of so many people, aren't you afraid you won't get any more screen time?"

"Not afraid."

Lin Mo smiled calmly.

He Shui looked curious. "Why aren't you afraid?"

Lin Mo put his hands behind his back and said, "I'm not afraid, that's all."

Actually, before he could say a word, he fired the cameraman because the cameraman wouldn't give him any screen time.

His own company is refusing to give him screen time because of the variety show he and An Youyu created.

What an international joke!

This way of chatting left He Shui both amused and exasperated. He couldn't ask any more questions and could only continue to have the star players form teams.

As more and more people successfully formed teams, only Leng Wanwan and Wang Ruran, two top-tier celebrities, remained to form a team. Wang Ruran smiled at Leng Wanwan and said, "Sister Leng, you go last. I'll choose first."

Although Leng Wanwan is much younger than him, it doesn't stop him from calling her "Sister Leng." That's how realistic the entertainment industry is; whoever has the highest status can call someone "brother" or "sister."

Leng Wanwan smiled and shook her head in refusal: "Brother Wang is joking. I'm young, you should let me have my way. I'll choose first."

The two vying to choose first drew continuous laughter from the audience.

Wang Ruran chuckled and suggested, "Sister Leng, let's not worry about who chooses first. Let's just discuss it. Anyway, it's just Lin Mo and An Youyu left, so it's not a difficult choice. If we can come up with a good idea, I think Lin Mo and An Youyu will give us some face."

After saying that, he gave Lin Mo and An Youyu a friendly smile.

Leng Wanwan smiled meaningfully, "In that case, Brother Wang, you can choose first. I'd be happy to team up with either Lin Mo or An Youyu."

Hearing Leng Wanwan say this, Wang Ruran didn't stand on ceremony and nodded with a smile, "I choose An Youyu. As the saying goes, it's easier for men and women to work together. Perfect, you and Lin Mo can form a team."

Leng Wanwan just smiled and said nothing.

He Shui asked, "An Youyu, Wang Ruran has chosen you. Would you like to team up with him?"

An Youyu shook her head without hesitation and refused, "I refuse."

Wang Ruran's smile froze instantly, turning bitter the next second. "Little sister, I just smiled like that, do you know what kind of smile that was? It was a fawning smile!"

"Can't you think about it before you refuse? This makes me lose face."

His words, tinged with a sense of humor, kept the recording session filled with joy.
