Zhao Dashan's words were simple and sincere, which made Lu Yao's smile even more genuine: "Of course, Mr. Zhao, you're too kind. It's my honor to be liked by such an excellent florist as you."

Zhou Hui stood to the side, smiling gently, and lightly tugged at Zhao Dashan's sleeve: "Dashan, when are you going to get rid of this habit of rubbing your hands together when you get excited?"

Zhao Dashan chuckled sheepishly, "I can't change it; I just can't control myself when I get excited."

Xie Linyu watched this scene, a slight smile playing on his lips. He leaned down and whispered in Lu Yao's ear, "This couple is so cute."

Lu Yao nodded gently, her eyes filled with smiles.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Zhang Hai clapped his hands: "Now that everyone understands each other, let's take a short break. We'll officially start recording soon. Today's theme is 'Knight.' Each group of guests still needs to complete tasks to obtain clues. The specific tasks will be announced later. As guest stars, Teacher Lu Yao and Actor Xie will need to take a simple compatibility test after the show starts. Don't be nervous, it won't be too difficult."

After giving a brief explanation, Zhang Hai went off to get busy.

Lu Yao also took the time to take a photo and get autographs from Zhao Dashan and Ye Nuannuan.

Chu Feng sat on the sofa, holding a teacup in her hand, her gaze drifting towards Lu Yao almost imperceptibly.

Watching the lively scene of Ye Nuannuan and Zhao Dashan's family surrounding Lu Yao for autographs, she slightly pursed her lips and let out a barely audible snort.

"It's just a script, what's so great about it?" she muttered under her breath.

Lu Zhanting was looking at the documents on his terminal when he heard this. He looked up at her, his brows furrowing slightly as he reminded her, "Fengfeng, watch your words."

Chu Feng pursed her lips and didn't say anything more, but her gaze kept glancing in that direction from time to time.

On Lu Yao's side, Ye Nuannuan had already taken no less than ten selfies with her, each one requiring a different angle and expression.

"This one is beautiful! This one is beautiful too! Teacher Lu Yao, how come you are so photogenic!" Ye Nuannuan held the terminal, her eyes sparkling.

Lu Yao was a little embarrassed by her praise: "It's because you took the good photos."

Zhao Dashan finally got the autograph, carefully put the autographed book into his pocket, patted it, as if it were some rare treasure.

Seeing her husband's expression, Zhou Hui couldn't help but shake her head with a smile: "Alright, alright, keep it safe, it won't get away."

Zhao Dashan chuckled sheepishly, "That's hard to say. This is Teacher Lu Yao's autograph, so you have to keep it safe."

Xie Linyu watched from the side, a slight smile playing on his lips, and whispered in Lu Yao's ear, "Your fans are quite cute."

Lu Yao gently pinched him, signaling him not to talk nonsense.

Just then, Zhang Hai's voice came from the loudspeaker: "Attention all guests, recording is about to begin. Please assemble in the garden."

Everyone got up and walked towards the garden.

At this moment, an exquisite white gazebo was erected in the center of the lawn in the garden. Comfortable chairs and a coffee table were placed in the gazebo, and there were also exquisite tea snacks on the coffee table.

The five groups of guests took their seats in the pavilion.

Lu Yao and Xie Linyu sat on the side, next to Zhao Dashan and Zhou Hui, opposite Lin Shen and Shen Qingyun, and diagonally opposite Gu Xinghe and Ye Nuannuan, as well as Lu Zhanting and Chu Feng.

Chu Feng's gaze fell on Lu Yao again, full of scrutiny.

Lu Yao naturally sensed the unfriendly gaze. She tried to recall if she had ever offended Ms. Chu Feng, but she had no recollection of it and had no idea where the other party's opinion of her came from.

Unable to come up with an answer, she simply stopped thinking about it. After all, she wasn't a hundred-dollar bill that everyone could like.

Besides, if I don't like her, that's her problem, what does it have to do with her?

Zhang Hai's voice rang out from outside the camera: "Welcome, everyone, to 'Matching Diary'! This episode is set on Ocean Flower Island! Today, we are honored to have Ms. Lu Yao and Actor Xie Linyu as our guest stars. Let's welcome Ms. Lu Yao and Actor Xie!"

"According to our usual practice, each guest must complete a compatibility test before we can move on to today's topic. Ms. Lu Yao, are you nervous, Mr. Xie?"

Lu Yao smiled and said frankly, "A little."

Xie Linyu raised an eyebrow and said arrogantly, "What's there to be nervous about? Do we need to test each other?"

He spoke with such confidence that Ye Nuannuan couldn't help but cover her face and scream.

Zhang Hai chuckled and replied, "In that case, let's test Actor Xie's confidence! Staff, please bring up the board—"

Two white answer boards were handed to Lu Yao and Xie Linyu.

Zhang Hai cleared his throat and asked his first question: "May I ask, what color clothes was Actor Xie wearing when you two first met?"

Lu Yao paused for a moment, then smiled and wrote her answer on the answer board.

Xie Linyu also lowered his head and wrote, a faint smile on his lips. His pen paused on the board for a moment, as if he was recalling some details.

A moment later, Zhang Hai said, "Three, two, one, please show your answer boards!"

The two of them raised their answer boards at the same time.

Lu Yao's whiteboard read: [Black Shirt]

Xie Linyu's answer sheet read: [Black Shirt]

The entire room fell silent for a second.

Immediately, Ye Nuannuan exclaimed, "Ah? Same here! It seems that Actor Xie is indeed confident!"

Xie Linyu gave Ye Nuannuan a look that said, "You understand me."

Lu Zhanting jokingly asked, "Did you two look at each other's answer sheets?"

Everyone was amused by his words, and even Shen Qingyun couldn't help but smile.

Xie Linyu said dismissively, "Do we really need to look at each other to answer such a simple question? Don't we already know the answer?"

Zhang Hai interrupted the chatter at the opportune moment and continued, "Alright, alright, you pass! Second question. Where did you two first kiss?"

Upon hearing this question, Lu Yao lowered her eyes, her eyelashes trembled slightly, her hand holding the pen tightened slightly, and the tips of her ears turned pink at a visible speed.

Xie Linyu remained calm, even curving his lips into a meaningful smile, as he lowered his head and began writing on the answer board.

Ye Nuannuan excitedly tugged at Gu Xinghe's sleeve: "It's here! It's the important question!"

Gu Xinghe helplessly let her pull him along, but there was a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Zhao Dashan scratched his head and asked Zhou Hui with a sheepish look, "Are all young people these days so direct?"

Zhou Hui laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't say anything."

Chu Feng's gaze was fixed on the answer boards in the two people's hands, her lips pursed into a thin line, and she seemed to be deep in thought.

Zhang Hai's voice rang out again: "Three, two, one, show the question board!"

The two of them raised their answer boards at the same time.

Lu Yao's whiteboard read: [Restroom.]

Xie Linyu's answer board read: [Restroom.]

There was a moment of silence, then someone asked, "The restroom?"
