I was criticized on a dating reality show, but I retaliated and became an internet sensation.

The next day, "Heartbeat With You" posted a second Weibo post at the same time.

Official Weibo of "Heartbeat With You" V: [That's right, it's me again, and I'm here with the remaining guests!]

Live stream countdown: 2 days! @FangYutongV @ShenYihuaiV @HanJingxueV @SuYanhuanhhhV Are you ready?!

What? You said there's one guest missing? Yes, that's right! We'll reveal the remaining mystery guest on the day of the live stream! So, who do you think it will be?

[This is a series of interconnected puzzles, one guess after another! Are you trying to create a nested nesting doll situation?]

[I could have just seen it with my own eyes that day, why did you need to announce it?!]

[Director, where are you? I need to talk to you urgently. (smiles) (smiles)]

[I also have something urgent to do!! (Roaring version)]

The guests also responded one after another—

@ShenYiHuaiV: [See you in 3 days. #HeartFlutteringWithYou#]

@HanJingxueV: [3 days until the live stream! No script, no editing, just the most authentic interaction. Looking forward to working with everyone. See you in the live stream in 3 days! #HanJingxueVarietyShowLiveStream#]

@苏颜欢hhhV: [Wow! 3 days left! [starry eyes] I'm so excited to be recording a dating reality show with my favorite seniors that I can't sleep! Remember to come to the live stream and pick me in 3 days! #SweetGirlSuYanHuanHeartFlutteringOnline#]

@FangYutongV: [Family members! 3 days to go! [Excited] 24-hour live stream! I'm already rubbing my hands in anticipation to be recording a variety show with so many seniors, handsome men and beautiful women! Come interact with me in the live stream~ #HeartbeatWithYouAllGathering#]

[Ahhh! Tongtong! My daughter has finally descended to earth to film a variety show! I absolutely love the unscripted live broadcast!]

[Please! Who is Shen Yihuai?! He's so aloof! I love him so much! Waiting online! *drooling*]

[Upstairs, wipe your drool! I'm begging you! *drooling* (drooling)]

[Huanhuan, my little darling! Mommy's here!! 3 days to go! I've already got my little stool ready for the live stream! (Cheers!) (Cheers!)]

[Frog Fun! Fang Yutong really is involved! Now we have some juicy gossip to enjoy!]

[The production team must have invited Tongtong first, then Yu Shize regretted it and wanted to go on the show to pursue Tongtong again, and then Shu Zi insisted on coming to the show with Yu Shize!]

Shuzi, who was browsing the comments section, wrote: "[Even if he offered himself to me, I wouldn't take him (smile)]"

[Hahahaha, the person upstairs is a sister, I support you!!]

[How could Fang Yutong's fans say such a thing? Did they bite their tongues?]

[Hey! By the way, does anyone know who the mystery guest is?]

[To the person above me, I know!]

Who is it?

Who is it?

Who is it?

Following the flood of "Who is it?" comments, a string of "Same question! Waiting in the front row for some gossip!" appeared.

[Uh... according to my reliable sources, it should be... probably, maybe, possibly, seemingly... Gu Yan... right?]

This message was upvoted instantly as soon as it was posted.

[Sister, can you please stop using so many uncertain interjections? It's driving me crazy! (Speechless emoji)]

[support!]

[support!]

[support!]

The screen was flooded with "support" comments, making it a veritable online team-building event for online commentators.

Shu Zi looked at her phone and quickly typed: Speechless.jpg.1

She tossed the phone back to Fang Zhizi, her face showing a look of utter disbelief: "There's nothing to see here."

"Sister Zizi, do you think Yan Shen will really go?" Fang Zhizi asked, her eyes sparkling as she held her phone.

"Won't."

How did you know?

Shu Zi blinked at her and made a calculation gesture in a serious manner: "Let me calculate with my fingers."

Fang Zhizi: ...

Smile at the garlic.

Two days flew by, and the day of the premiere arrived in the blink of an eye.

One minute before the live stream started, #HeartbeatWithYouLive# was trending at number one on Weibo, followed by a bright red "hot" icon.

The platform server was almost overwhelmed, and the comment section was filled with cries of despair.

[It's lagging! Whose internet speed is faster than mine?!]

[Help! I've been waiting here for ten minutes! Get in!]

Are you guys here just to watch the drama unfold? (Curious)

[Mystery Guest! I want to see the mystery guest!!]

[Tell me quickly, who is the mystery guest—is it! No! It's Gu Yan!]

Finally, the image stabilized.

The camera shows a detached villa by the sea, with roses planted in the yard. Sunlight filters through the vines, casting dappled light onto the white wicker chairs.

Director Liu's voice came through the loudspeaker: "Welcome, everyone, to 'Heartbeat With You'! This program is unscripted and broadcast live 24/7. We hope you gain something from this experience..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a noise at the door.

Su Yanhuan was the first to arrive.

She wore a pale yellow puff-sleeved dress with a playful pleated skirt that reached just to her knees, revealing her slender and shapely calves.

She wore a pair of white canvas shoes with the laces tied into cute bows. She was pushing a pink suitcase, on top of which was a cartoon-patterned canvas bag with the zipper not fully closed, revealing a bulging bag of snacks inside.

Her eyes lit up the moment she saw the camera, and she waved sweetly, "Hello! Good morning, everyone in the live stream!"

The comments section was instantly melted by the sweetness:

[Help! She looks so cute carrying snacks!]

[This pale yellow dress suits her so well! She's the epitome of a vibrant, energetic girl!]

[Sweet girl, so cute! I love watching this energetic little sun on a dating show! Looking forward to seeing her heart flutter~]

[Waaaaah, my Huanhuan finally got a role in a dating reality show! This time, we absolutely have to make sure she gets a super sweet couple! I'm rooting for you!]

Of course, some people also made sarcastic remarks and stirred up trouble:

[Sweet girl persona? Is she just another tool the show is promoting? Let's wait and see what happens next (gossip)]

[You're just going on dating reality shows to become famous, right? Can you please stop trying to portray yourself as a cute but clueless person?]

[What's with all the sour comments? Huanhuan is just focused on acting; what's wrong with her appearing on variety shows? If you don't like it, scroll away!]

Su Yanhuan found a seat on the far side and sat down.

"I'm the first one here! Guess who's next?" she said to the camera.

The camera panned left and right.

Su Yan laughed: "Okay, I couldn't have guessed either."

"Do you know who the mystery guest is?"

The camera then shook its head.

Just then, a soft sound came from the doorway.

It's Fang Yutong.

She wore a creamy white, soft knit dress with a delicate lace trim around the neckline and a beautifully draped skirt that accentuated her slender waist.

Pushing a beige suitcase, she walked into the courtyard very quietly, as if afraid of disturbing someone. A faint smile graced her face, her eyes crinkling as she looked at the camera, her voice so gentle it seemed to melt hearts.

"Hello everyone, I'm Fang Yutong. This is my first time on a dating reality show, so I'm a little nervous. I hope we can get along well."

Her fans immediately flooded the screen with comments:

[Who can resist Tongbao's gentleness!]

[No script, live stream! Tongbao, go go go! We believe in you!]

[This knitted dress is so gentle! She's the epitome of pure beauty!]

[Waaaaah, Tongtong is so well-behaved! Production team, please don't bully our poor little one!]

[Upstairs, you've already blew up...]

Upon seeing her, Su Yanhuan immediately stood up to greet her, "Hello, Teacher Yutong! Please sit down, please sit down. I brought lots of snacks, would you like to try some?"

"Hello!" Fang Yutong replied, sitting down in the seat next to her.

"Thank you, Huanhuan. I just had breakfast. I'll ask you for some more when I get hungry later." She smiled and politely declined.

After he finished speaking, the air fell silent.

A little awkward, Su Yanhuan decided to take the initiative to start a conversation again: "Teacher Fang, who do you think will be next?"

"Hmm... I couldn't guess either." Fang Yutong shook her head gently.

Su Yanhuan chuckled and said, "Oh, okay."

I'd better shut up...
