Chapter 6 – The Mutual Heartflutter Letter (2/2)

So when it was time for the first round of mutual “heartflutter letters,” Jiang Qi didn’t hesitate at all—he immediately put his letter into Jiang Wan’s box.

This round would determine who got paired up for the first date.

When the PD asked him why, he sneered and said:
“Of course I had to give it to Jiang Wan. After everything she said, if I turned around and put the letter in someone else’s box, wouldn’t that be like saying the others have ugly eyes? I’m not about to offend people like that.”

The viewers in the stream were cracking up, but Jiang Qi’s fans were dumbfounded.

[Jiang Qi, haven’t you done plenty of reckless stuff in this industry? Since when are you afraid of offending people?!]
[Lord Jiang! This showbiz world can’t contain your chaos, and you’ve proved that many times already!]
[If you guys saw what he actually wrote in his heartflutter letter to Jiang Wan—literally nothing, just a drawing of an eyeball—you’d be laughing too.]
[Jiang Qi: Jiang Wan, I will always keep watch over you. Always. (full villain arc unlocked)]
[What is this elementary school nonsense?!]

But some people were starting to feel something was off.

[Why do I get the feeling Jiang Qi and Jiang Wan know each other?]
[+1. The way they silently ignored each other with that much mutual understanding—no way they’re strangers.]
[They don’t just know each other. It feels more like… they have beef.]
[I’m a multishipper. I’ll ship anything. What is this dynamic? Enemies to lovers? Give me a taste.]
[First date location: a boxing gym. (just kidding)]

Someone tentatively chimed in:

[Is it just me, or is Jiang Qi basically looking for an excuse to get paired up with Jiang Wan?]

But at that moment, this comment was drowned in the flood of barrage, and nobody took it seriously.

Next, it was Jiang Wan’s turn to cast her heartflutter letter.

For her, there was really no dilemma—because she didn’t have a choice.

She and Jiang Qi? Could they go on a date? No way—that’d just be asking for a fight.

Shang Gubai was basically Song Yanyan’s lapdog—could she pick him? Absolutely not—she didn’t want to stir that pot.

So that only left Xie Zhiyi.

Sure, he looked super quiet, but Jiang Wan figured she could try her best to be the extrovert to his introvert!

Without hesitation, Jiang Wan walked over to Xie Zhiyi’s box and dropped in her letter.

The comment section exploded.

[Wait—?! She picked Xie Zhiyi? That’s unexpected. They’ve barely spoken at all, right?]
[Maybe that’s exactly why she picked him—because they haven’t talked yet, so there’s no bad blood.]
[She managed to offend two out of the three guys… That’s impressive, honestly.]

After she voted, the production team asked her why.

She thought about it and answered solemnly:
“I think Xie Zhiyi seems very quiet, and I’d like to get to know him better.”

Someone couldn’t help snarking:

[Come on, it’s obviously because she can’t stand Jiang Qi and Shang Gubai!]

Jiang Qi had chosen Jiang Wan, and Shang Gubai had been in the wrong earlier when they met, so neither of their fans could say much.

But Jiang Wan’s antis were still going strong.

[Poor Xie Zhiyi—he’d better watch out or this girl is going to latch on like a barnacle.]
[The person Xie Zhiyi hates most is a chatterbox. Does Jiang Wan have zero self-awareness?]

But then, a passerby fired back:

[Stop pitying Xie Zhiyi—he picked Jiang Wan too!]

Everyone: “?”

Wait—seriously?

Xie Zhiyi, are you sure about this? Weren’t you the one who said you liked quiet girls?

Shi Lan the cool beauty and Song Yanyan the gentle sweetheart—either of them seemed way closer to your type than Jiang Wan, this motor-mouth!

[So it’s mutual? They actually picked each other?]
