Huayu: Starting with Rejecting 00s Actresses on a Dating Show

They didn't ask, and I didn't feel comfortable offering an explanation myself, as it would seem like I was trying to cover it up.

Then let's direct our firepower at Liu Haochun.

Tan Wen feigned suspicion, "Hao Chun, the things you're saying make me feel like you like me?"

Liu Haochun clearly didn't expect Tan Wen to ask that question. Her words were indeed meant to confirm that Tan Wen had a special feeling for her.

On one hand, this is a dating reality show, so we have to do things related to romance, and it's quite fun.

On the other hand, she did think Tan Wen was quite outstanding, and she was willing to get closer to him.

Finally, the director of "Little Red Flower" wanted to see a romantic storyline between her and Tan Wen, and she took this to heart.

Without much hesitation, Liu Haochun met Tan Wen's gaze and confidently said, "I do like you, didn't you already know that?"

Lu Yu glanced at Tan Wen, opened his mouth but didn't speak, then lowered his head again. He Mi'er snorted softly; she wanted to hear what Tan Wen had to say.

Tan Wen secretly thought something bad had happened. He had no idea that Liu Haochun liked him; it was just a prank.

And what does "You already knew" mean? When did I know you liked me? After she said that, it would seem irresponsible of me to explain further.

"Don't like me, it will hurt you." Tan Wen cut ties directly.

Liu Haochun blinked: "You don't think much of me at all?"

"You're excellent, it's my problem, but in short, don't like me."

"I allow everything to happen, and I won't back down just because the ending doesn't match the process. I'm more accepting of parting ways and things not going as planned."

Well... having said all that, Tan Wen had nothing more to say. He shrugged and moved to the other side to sit down and rest.

He didn't understand why Liu Haochun was making this move, but it didn't matter. He had already expressed his attitude, and as long as Lu Yuxiao and He Mier didn't misunderstand, that was fine.

After Liu Haochun finished speaking, He Mier made a heart shape with her hands to express her admiration for her courage and open-mindedness.

Lu Yu felt somewhat relieved that Tan Wen had cut ties with her, but Liu Haochun's attitude still made her feel a little threatened.

After a moment of silence, Tan Wen took the initiative to break the awkward silence and change the subject.

"After returning to the cabin this time, we need to bring along the guest assistants. Have you all contacted them?"

He Mi'er nodded. "I contacted a friend, you probably all know her."

"Who is it?" Liu Haochun asked curiously.

"He Chaolian, she came with her boyfriend this time, so I have two helpers now."

Lu Yuxiao and Liu Haochun were both somewhat surprised. Although He Chaolian was not very famous, she had a powerful background, and He Mier was actually her friend.

As for her boyfriend Dou Xiao, most people know him. Their relationship was exposed some time ago, which became a hot topic and sparked a lot of discussion.

Upon hearing He Chaolian's name, Tan Wen immediately thought of He Mier's real name, He Chaoyan, both of which contain the character "Chao," so were they just friends?

Tan Wen couldn't help but overthink, especially given He Mi'er's previous display of skill, which was enough to make people speculate.

There's just one problem: He Mier's appearance doesn't resemble that family at all. He Mier is much prettier, and she's far superior in terms of looks.

"And you?" He Mi'er asked Tan Wen.

Tan Wen: "We invited Meng Ziyi beforehand, and she agreed to come."

"Wow! You know Meng Ziyi?" Lu Yu asked curiously.

"We went to the same school, just one year apart, so it's normal for us to know each other."

When did you invite her?

"It was the day we went to the hot springs."

"That long time?" Although it was less than half a month, Lu Yu felt that it was a long time ago.

Liu Haochun looked worried. "Meng Ziyi seems to be facing a boycott online right now. Aren't you worried about the risks of inviting her?"

He Mi'er glanced at Lu Yuxiao and explained with a smile:

"You weren't here before, so you don't know, but Tan Wen is the kind of person who would stand up to haters for someone. I don't know if it's loyalty or love."

Liu Haochun looked at He Mier curiously, waiting for her to explain further.

Let's talk about Xiaoxiao.

Lu Yu was slightly embarrassed. He quietly recounted his experience of being cyberbullied and then gave a detailed account of how Tan Wen helped him.

After listening to Lu Yuxiao's description, Liu Haochun's deep eyes lit up. She realized that she had met a completely different Tan Wen.

She thought Tan Wen was just someone with solid professional skills, who liked to talk a good game, and who didn't care about things that didn't concern him.

I never expected him to be so kind-hearted. But is this kindness only directed at Lu Yuxiao, or can it be extended to others, like me?

"Don't look at me like that. I just wanted to make the date a little more exciting, right, Mia?"

"Yeah, it was my first real date, and my date was only interested in other women the whole time. It was so exciting!"

······

Liu Haochun watched the two bickering and smiled slightly, "I hope I can act peacefully in the future and not encounter things like cyberbullying."

Just as the others were about to offer some comfort, Liu Haochun abruptly changed the subject, "What if I really get cyberbullied someday? Tan Wen, would you help me too?"

Tan Wen didn't know how to answer. He couldn't promise such a thing, and he couldn't make any promises. Lu Yuxiao and Mi'er were still there.

Liu Haochun waved his hand, "Just kidding, look how troubled you are."

"By the way, Xiaoxiao, have you invited any guest mentors?" Liu Haochun changed the subject, though he was secretly disappointed by Tan Wen's attitude.

Lu Yuxiao: "I invited my best friend. You'll be able to guess her profession as soon as you meet her. What about you, Haochun?"

Liu Haochun: "I haven't decided yet. I'll see who's available in the next couple of days."

After resting, the group continued their journey.

On the way, Tan Wen told them about the upcoming arrangements.

I won't take the high-speed rail this time. There are no direct flights from Wuhu to Zhuzhou or Haikou airports, so I'll go to Hangzhou to catch it.

We set off for Hangzhou around 12 o'clock, first to see the Xiaobaihua Yue Opera Troupe's performance of "Dream of the Red Chamber", then had dinner, and then took a plane back to Zhuhai around 9 o'clock.

He Mi'er was curious about what Yue Opera was, so Lu Yuxiao gave her a brief explanation.

Lu Yuxiao was quite happy with this arrangement. She had accompanied her mother to see it before and became a fan of a young actor named Chen Lijun.

Liu Haochun actually knew about this Yue Opera troupe and said he really liked He Qingqing.

Tan Wen pouted, somewhat dissatisfied. Li Yunxiao was truly exceptional, wasn't she? She was the epitome of beauty, "wherever she walked, the fragrance of flowers bloomed; when she sat down, she exuded a hundred charms."

After listening to Lu Yuxiao's soft Wu dialect last night, he felt a strong urge to go to Hangzhou and made a last-minute decision.

······

When they passed by the temple, Liu Haochun and Lu Yuxiao decided to go in and pay their respects. Tan Wen didn't believe in gods before, but after having the system, he felt that some things still deserved respect.

"Aren't you going in?" Tan Wen asked He Mi'er.

"I probably believe more in God."

Tan Wen waved his hand, "Those out-of-town gods don't care. They're not as down-to-earth as the local gods. Come on, let's pay our respects. There's even the Old Man of the Moon inside."

He Mi'er was still hesitating when Tan Wen pulled her inside...

Just as they entered, Tan Wen's phone rang; it was his aunt calling.

This is quite a commotion. Is the matchmaker god just enjoying the show?
