I don't know if Lu Xiao didn't go for a morning run, or if she went straight back to her dorm after her run, but she didn't come over to be a third wheel.

After the two finished eating the noodles and washed the bowls clean, the other guests still hadn't arrived.

It wasn't that they got up late; it was just that Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue got up way too early.

After all, most variety shows don't officially start until around nine or ten o'clock, and it's only just past eight o'clock now.

Lin Zhou's biological clock hasn't adjusted yet due to his previous work.

Jiang Muxue simply has a very regular lifestyle, going to bed early and waking up early every day.

Lin Zhou didn't intend to make any changes. He felt that it would be too boring for Jiang Muxue to stay here alone.

As her only good friend on the show, Lin Zhou felt obligated to accompany her.

Yes, it is like that.

Bored, Lin Zhou wanted to find something to pass the time.

The production team also thoughtfully prepared a lot of entertainment props for the guests, such as playing cards, chess, Gomoku, and Ludo.

There were only two of them, and among all these things, the only game they could play was Gomoku (Five in a Row).

"Want to play some Gomoku?" Lin Zhou asked her with a smile.

"Okay," Jiang Muxue readily agreed.

The two moved a small coffee table and sat by the French windows in the living room, setting up a chessboard.

"You go first."

"it is good."

The last time Lin Zhou played Gomoku was in high school. He was so bored in class that he and his deskmate played it on their composition notebooks. Since they didn't have composition notebooks, they drew grids on scratch paper. Thinking about it now, it was actually quite fun.

He had previously searched for some tutorials online, such as the "underwear formation," but he had long forgotten about them now.

Jiang Muxue's chess skills weren't very good, and the two played back and forth without either side gaining the upper hand.

Every time Jiang Muxue wins, her eyes light up, and her dimples sink into her cheeks, making her incredibly cute.

Seeing how happy she was, Lin Zhou decided to let loose completely, occasionally even making a few wrong moves to deliberately let her win.

After several rounds, Jiang Muxue won more than she lost, and the corners of her eyes curved into crescents.

"I won again!"

Jiang Muxue placed the black chess piece on the board with some excitement, and the five black pieces on the board were once again connected in a line.

At this point, Lin Zhou would look at her with some "annoyance" and say:

"Wow, you're so good! Let's play one more round. I'm sure I can win this time."

"Hehe, okay!"

The comments section was already filled with disbelief.

That move was clearly a deliberate act of sabotage by you!

[The acting was rather clumsy.]

Look how well we've coaxed Mu Xue!

This is a relationship you should be in!

[Suddenly remembered when I had a crush on my deskmate in high school, we played Connect Four together, and I probably won over fifty games in a row!]

What happened next?

【…】

This is how you should play Gomoku! Hehehe, I'm having so much fun!

……

Around 9:30, the other guests arrived from their dormitories.

The male guests were now completely starving.

The main reason is that apart from Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue, the others didn't eat much last night.

Although I ate some snacks while playing games at night, they weren't filling at all. After a whole night, I was starving.

The female guests were alright, after all, they had eaten the desserts that Jiang Muxue brought yesterday. Seeing the male guests' expressions, they were immediately filled with gratitude towards Jiang Muxue.

As soon as Lu Xiao arrived, he made himself two packets of instant noodles. At this point, he didn't care about health or anything else. The main thing was that he had almost starved to death after running in the morning, and filling his stomach was the most important thing right now.

Jiang Yi went into the kitchen and saw Lu Xiao making instant noodles. He swallowed hard and pulled out a packet as well.

Shen Jiashu simply picked up a loaf of bread from the refrigerator and ate it with milk.

He also completely forgot about his habit of not eating breakfast.

Seeing this, Lin Zhou and Jiang Muxue put the Go set into the box together.

After finishing breakfast, the group returned to the living room.

"Lin Zhou, did you study music in college?" Xia Wanxing suddenly asked him with a smile.

While putting on makeup today, she saw a video of Lin Zhou playing guitar and singing on her phone.

The other guests were obviously unaware of this, as they hadn't paid attention to the live stream after returning to their dorms yesterday. So when they heard Xia Wanxing's words, they all looked at Lin Zhou with blank expressions.

Lin Zhou smiled and said, "No, I studied computer science in college."

"Computer science major?" Xia Wanxing asked, somewhat surprised. "Then how did you learn to sing and play the guitar? You're so good at it!"

Seeing that the others were still confused, Xia Wanxing explained, "Last night after we left, Lin Zhou played and sang in the living room by himself. It was an original song of his, and now the internet is full of praise for his performance."

Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, but he didn't take it seriously at all. He just thought that Lin Zhou was just playing around in his spare time and trying to gain some attention through the program's behind-the-scenes footage.

As if he had found another opportunity to impress Xia Wanxing, he smiled and said, "Not bad, Lin Zhou. I didn't know you could sing and play instruments. We can have a friendly competition sometime~"

Don't humiliate yourself!

I suggest you listen to Lin Zhou's song first, then see if you still have the courage to say that!

[He's laughing so hard he can't live anymore. Does he think Lin Zhou is inferior to him?]

[You're not allowed to talk about my brother like that! My brother is the best!]

Jiang Yi sings a hundred times better than Lin Zhou!

[An insanely obsessed fan!]

[Idiot!]

Unexpectedly, the viewers who had been spamming "Lin Gou" in the live stream chat started arguing with Jiang Yi's fans in the chat over Lin Zhou.

They don't care about Jiang Yi's status. They'd criticize him even if he were a first-tier celebrity, let alone a second-tier one.

The result was naturally one-sided, with Jiang Yi's fans quickly being overwhelmed by the barrage of comments.

Jiang Yi's agent, witnessing this scene, felt like dying.

Can't you just behave yourself and do your live stream quietly? You always have to cause trouble for the company!

Looking at Jiang Yi's appearance, Xia Wanxing felt even more disgusted with him.

She had listened to Lin Zhou's song in its entirety and knew Lin Zhou's abilities. Jiang Yi probably thought Lin Zhou was inferior to him, which is why he dared to say that.

This arrogant attitude is disgusting.

Lin Zhou didn't care much about this. The morning passed quickly, and it wasn't until near noon that he remembered it was his turn to cook again.

Seeing that Lin Zhou was preparing to cook, Lin Jianwei remembered how Lin Zhou had helped her out of a predicament yesterday, so she offered to help him.

Seeing Jiang Muxue stand up after him, Lin Zhou smiled slightly and declined Lin Jianwei's offer.

Lunch, as always, ended amidst a chorus of praise.

This time, everyone was smarter. While Lin Zhou was cooking, they ate a lot more, afraid of playing games on an empty stomach like last night.

Soon, it was time for the afternoon team games.

Lin Zhou felt somewhat helpless as the assistant director walked in with the task card.

I wonder what bizarre team-up methods the production team will come up with today.
