Seeing Rong Xuan nodding in agreement, Elder Lu let out a long sigh of relief.

His granddaughter was really different from before.

In the past, Rong Xuan had closed her heart and was irritable, unable to listen to what others said.

He really couldn’t help worrying about her.

But now things were clearly changing for the better. His granddaughter has become mature, sensible, and gradually becoming better.

He could finally rest assured.

Elder Lu continued, “The show will be recorded before the Spring Festival and will take three days in total. Shall Grandpa help you sign up?”

Rong Xuan’s grandfather used to run an entertainment company and had some connections in the circle, so there was no problem letting Rong Xuan participate in a reality show.

Rong Xuan nodded and the matter was settled.

Rong Xuan planned to stay at her grandfather’s house in the next few days before directly going to participate in the show’s recording, and then returning to the Rong family’s house after it was over.

Rong Yao had been very tolerant of her recently. No matter what she wants to do, he supports it with both hands, as if trying to be a good father. This was convenient for Rong Xuan.

Otherwise, as her father, it would cause a lot of trouble if Rong Yao often interfered.

Rong Xuan recalled the novel’s description of 《High School Detectives》. As a feast for top students, problem-solving was naturally the main theme. But just as students were now required to develop in an all-round way, the content of this reality show wasn’t only about solving problems, but also includes many aspects that require hands-on operations, test ones memory, and also test ones physical strength.

The female protagonist shines in this reality show. Rong Xuan was naturally not that naive nor did she want to compete with her.

She dislikes trouble and actually didn’t want to meet the female protagonist at all.

The reason why she agreed was because she didn’t want her grandfather to be disappointed. He really wanted her to be a part of this show.

Since she had already agreed, she would naturally approach this reality show earnestly.

———

On the day of the recording, it was Gu Ye who sent Rong Xuan at the site.

When they arrived, the other seven super intellectuals from the city were already there. Of course, one of the seven was the female protagonist, Ning Chun.

Ning Chun’s classmate, Li You, was also participating in the show.

She leaned into Ning Chun’s ear and whispered, “Wow, that car logo, I remember it’s a Maybach?”

Ning Chun looked over slowly. It was indeed a Maybach, and it’s even the model that was priced at over 10 million.

Li You joked, “This car is so cool, Xiao Chun, why don’t your family buy one too?”

Ning Chun glanced at Li You, her tone light, “My family can’t afford it.” Her family was rich, but it could only be considered average wealth. There wasn’t a single car worth more than ten million at their home.

Li You gasped and whispered, “That boy! Are you seeing this? He’s so handsome!”

Maybe it was because she was too bored while waiting for the show to start recording, after hearing Li You gasped, Ning Chun looked over again.

The driver helped open the door of the back seat. The first person to step out was a boy. He was wearing a black leather jacket and black trousers. He looked really tall and handsome.

In fact, everyone’s aesthetic taste was different. Some people might find a guy handsome while some might be indifferent.

But Ning Chun felt that this boy’s handsomeness could capture everyone’s attention. It’s the kind of handsomeness that makes many people’s hearts flutter at first sight of him. Whether they look at it from the perspective of the past, the present, or the future, regardless of whether they were men, women, old or young, they would feel that he’s handsome.

At first, Ning Chun and Li You both thought that the boy was a top student who came to participate in the show. Before they had time to express their feelings that he was not only handsome but also had good grades, the boy bent down slightly and extended his hand into the car.

Then a girl stretched out a slender white hand, took the boy’s hand and got down.

One the girl was out, the crew and the contestants of the show all felt their eyes light up.

The reason was none other than the fact that the girl was so beautiful.

Li You let out a sigh. “Xiao Chun, there’s actually a girl who can compete with you in terms of appearance.”

Before Rong Xuan appeared, Ning Chun’s appearance was unmatched, and no one could compete with her. But after Rong Xuan appeared, Ning Chun had a rival, and currently, it seemed that Rong Xuan was slightly above Ning Chun.

The relationship between Li You and Ning Chun was very ordinary. Both of them were top students and usually didn’t give in to each other. At most, they could talk to each other.

So Li You naturally didn’t take Ning Chun’s mood into account when she spoke.

Seeing Rong Xuan, Li You touched her chin and said inquisitively, “Say, will the participant be the girl or the boy?”

Although she asked this question, both Li You and Ning Chun actually had an answer in their minds.

As a top student, good grades alone were useless; one also needs to have basic reasoning and judgment skills as well as a high level of emotional intelligence.

They wouldn’t be standing there ready to participate in a reality show with just good grades alone.

The program team invited a total of eight people, seven of them have arrived, and there was only one spot left. Looking at it like this, the boy obviously came there to accompany the girl.

Li You clicked her tongue. “What to do? I’m sour.”

Ning Chun has pride. Even if it was a joke, she would not say something like ‘I’m also sour’. So Li You’s words fell but Ning Chun didn’t answer.

Li You obviously knew Young Miss Ning’s aloofness, so she didn’t think it was a big deal when she didn’t get a response.

After Rong Xuan got out of the car, she took a quick look around.

With one glance, she saw the female protagonist, Ning Chun.

She had a very iconic look, with neat short hair and thin bangs, and her extremely beautiful facial features, it made her face looks small.

Gu Ye noticed that Rong Xuan didn’t pay attention to him once since getting out of the car, and said dissatisfiedly, “Little Bride, what are you looking at?”

Gu Ye followed Rong Xuan’s gaze.

There were two unfamiliar short-haired girls standing not far away, probably students also participating in the show.

There’s nothing interesting.

He took a glance and then withdrew his eyes.

Rong Xuan turned around, wanting to get her mobile phone, but then realized that the program crew informed her that it wasn’t allowed while filming, so she simply placed it with her luggage.

She took one of Gu Ye’s hands and wrote on it, ‘Aren’t, you, leaving?’

Gu Ye licked his upper lip. “You little heartless person, I specially sent you here, but as soon as you arrive, you’re chasing me away.”

Rong Xuan actually didn’t want Gu Ye to send her there. She’s staying at her grandfather’s house and he also has a driver who could take her there. But after Gu Ye learned from her grandfather that she was going to participate in this reality show, Gu Ye insisted on sending her over.

Elder Lu naturally agreed happily.

Gu Ye looked around and said, “Can’t I accompany you for the whole process?”

He was really worried about Rong Xuan staying alone in this unfamiliar environment for three days and two nights.

Gu Ye was also on winter vacation, but he actually wasn’t that free. His family had approved of him playing e-sports, so he recently joined the team and moved into a big villa to live with his team members.

Rong Xuan wrote on Gu Ye’s hand, ‘You, can’t.’

Gu Ye wanted to say something else, but at this time, Rong Xuan wrote a few more words on his hand, ‘You, have, dreams, and, so, do, I. Let’s, each, work, hard.’

Sometimes, with some people, it could take a lifetime to develop any kind of rapport.

But for some, it was easy.

Although Rong Xuan had written so many words on his hand, Gu Ye could understand them all right away.
