Chapter 218 Stepping Stones in Variety Shows 13
The group was discussing amongst themselves. Xie Zeyan had been watching Qingyu's expression closely. He noticed something was wrong and was about to step forward when another figure cut in front of him.
"Are you feeling unwell?" Murong Han asked gently. He exuded a cool and refreshing aura, making him appear even more aloof and impeccably groomed.
Qingyu was called out and barely came to her senses. She looked up and met the man's concerned gaze, her heart fluttering slightly. "A little."
Murong Han frowned slightly, his ear tips turning slightly red, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I... have studied a little traditional Chinese medicine. If you believe me, I can take a look at you?"
Traditional Chinese Medicine...
Qingyu raised an eyebrow, a hint of interest appearing in her eyes. Traditional Chinese medicine was her specialty, yet Murong Han was going to perform it in front of her?
She chuckled softly, "Okay." As she spoke, she revealed a section of her fair and slender wrist, as white as jade, which made one's heart flutter.
Murong Han's throat moved as he suppressed the pounding in his heart. He gently grasped Qingyu's wrist, his fingertips resting on her pulse. The smooth, tender touch felt like touching a piece of warm jade. He tried to calm himself down.
After a moment, he said, "Your heartbeat is a little unsteady... Perhaps it's because there are too many people here and it's stuffy. I'll take you to a quiet place."
As he spoke, ignoring the surprised looks from those around him, he pulled Qingyu away.
Seeing this, Xie Zeyan's eyes flashed with a shadow of gloom. He was about to follow when Murong Han stopped him with a single glance. "You're going too?"
Now, everyone else looked over.
Lin Feiyue's smile faded slightly as she stepped forward. "Brother Han? What's wrong? We're about to start a mission."
This is a subtle reminder that the two of them are actually on the same team.
Murong Han's expression stiffened slightly, but he nodded calmly. "Qingyu seems to be feeling unwell. I'll take her to an open space to rest."
"Really?" Lin Feiyue's smile almost faded, her eyes filled with disappointment, but when she thought of Qingyu's discomfort, that disappointment was quickly replaced by worry.
She didn't know why, but she was becoming more and more concerned about Qingyu, and she couldn't feel any ill will towards her anymore.
Sometimes I even really want to get close to them.
She looked at Qingyu, "Then we'll go with you."
“Yes, we haven’t finished shopping yet.” Mo Xiaoxiao nodded in agreement.
The others had varying expressions, but all agreed.
Anyway...
Nobody wants to see Qingyu alone with anyone!
At this point, Murong Han, though somewhat helpless, could only lead everyone slowly to a quiet garden.
This place seems to be connected to a small courtyard, surrounded by blooming flowers and a sweet fragrance.
"How did Brother Han know there was a garden here? If I didn't know, I would have thought Brother Han had given away spoilers." Mu Ran covered her mouth and chuckled, seemingly joking.
Murong Han glanced at her indifferently and explained softly, "I heard a staff member mention it."
Then he looked at Qingyu nervously, "Are you feeling better here?"
Qingyu was indeed captivated by the scenery. She took a deep breath and nodded casually.
Just then, a colorful butterfly fluttered over and, to everyone's surprise, slowly landed on Qingyu's shoulder.
It was as if she was completely drawn to Qingyu and refused to leave.
Murong Han was slightly taken aback when he saw this. But the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up, and he reached out as if possessed to touch the butterfly.
However, just as his hand was about to touch the butterfly, it suddenly fluttered its wings and flew away.
This brought Murong Han back to his senses. Meeting Qingyu's cold and aloof gaze, his heart tightened, and he awkwardly withdrew his hand, saying, "I'm sorry."
Qingyu turned her head away and didn't say anything.
Murong Han stood to the side, somewhat dejected.
At this moment, a melodious ancient melody drifted over, and everyone looked on curiously, only to see a woman in ancient costume slowly walking towards them, carrying a pipa.
"Is this also part of the game's storyline?" Mo Xiaoxiao asked excitedly.
No one answered; everyone was captivated by the unexpected sight.
The woman walked slowly to the crowd, swaying with each step, and bowed gracefully. "Honored guests are here. I have come to present a song."
After saying that, he began to play.
"The production team really knows how to arrange things..." Mu Ran chuckled, then said with some regret, "I wish I could play the piano too."
"Don't be too disappointed, Mu Ran." A staff member suddenly appeared, smiling as he announced the task, "To encourage the guests to interact more, please listen carefully to this piece of music and then write down your feelings from memory. Those who feel the same way can go on a date together!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed. Mu Ran subconsciously looked at Qing Yu, wondering who she would choose.
After realizing what had happened, I felt quite annoyed.
Why has she been so concerned about Qingyu lately?
She's heterosexual! She doesn't like women!
After some discussion, everyone quieted down to listen to the music.
Qingyu closed her eyes, a thought flashing through her mind, and made sure she hadn't misheard.
The piece of music seemed ordinary, but it actually contained hidden meanings, giving her a sense of familiarity, and there seemed to be a guiding force in the melody.
just like……
She used to play it too.
But how could she play the piano?
Qingyu felt restless and uneasy. She moved her hand slightly, her eyelashes trembling, revealing a hint of vulnerability.
Xie Zeyan, standing to the side, would occasionally steal glances at Qingyu, trying to guess what she was thinking.
Not only him, but everyone else couldn't help but secretly glance over, each with their own thoughts.
Murong Han, however, was focused on the music itself, constantly thinking about how to express a unique feeling, while he was praying that he could be a good match for Qingyu!
After the music ended, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment before they began to write.
Lin Feiyue originally wanted to ask others, but when she caught a glimpse of Qingyu picking up a pen and writing down her insights in a flowing manner, she paused for a moment, then stopped hesitating and started writing herself.
Mu Ran bit the pen and racked his brains to scribble something down.
Mo Xiaoxiao also frowned, while Gu Yao was the first to finish writing. He exuded a cold aura and looked down on everything, as if he could do it with ease.
Once everything is written, it's time to exchange and review the entries.
Everyone was a little nervous. Since Murong Han was closest to Qingyu, he subconsciously handed over his insights, saying, "Here, take a look at mine."
Qingyu's eyes slanted upwards, her gaze sparkling. Her jade-like fingers tapped lightly on the cardboard, her voice rising slightly, "No need, you can look at it yourselves."
After saying that, she directly displayed the cardboard sign.
Upon closer inspection, everyone realized that Qingyu's insights were profound and unfathomable, unlike anything else.
Everyone was somewhat disappointed.
Gu Yao even flipped the cardboard over and silently radiated cold air.
Murong Han's eyes dimmed as well. He pursed his thin lips and spoke as if trying to save face: "Actually..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xie Zeyan interrupted with a smile, "What a coincidence, why don't you take a look at mine?"
As he spoke, he took out his own paper, on which he found to contain similar viewpoints to Qingyu's.
Murong Han's expression changed, and Lin Feiyue was also secretly surprised.
"You two are so in sync, aren't you?" Mo Xiaoxiao commented naively, drawing displeased looks from everyone.
No matter how unhappy they were, they couldn't stop the staff from announcing that Xie Zeyan and Qingyu were a successful couple and could go on a date.
