After the first group of guests finished their walk, Shen Yueyue couldn’t help but laugh at herself.

She truly had no idea what to pick, so she casually grabbed a shuttlecock. Unexpectedly, it turned out to have a great comedic effect.

The audience was quite entertained as well. The comments ranged from, 【This pairing is interesting】 to 【This is kind of funny】 and 【One wants to go for romance, while the other is being very practical, hahaha.】

After the first group, whose compatibility was basically zero, it was quickly time for the second group.

The second group consisted of Ning Yuwei, Ling Zige, and Xiao Wei.

Ning Yuwei brought her limited-edition handbag— the kind that money couldn’t buy. Ling Zige also carried a limited-edition briefcase.

【The ladies’ handbag and the men’s briefcase match well.】

【Full marks for compatibility!】

【But the items they picked aren’t very interesting.】

【Although their brainwaves are in sync, they lack a unique touch. Not very memorable.】

The audience had mixed opinions about Ning Yuwei and Ling Zige’s runway walk.

Their fans, however, were singing their praises to the heavens, but casual viewers weren’t buying it.

【Next group, next group.】

The third group was Xi Rui’s team.

Xi Rui carried a feather duster, something that was in no short supply at the guesthouse for cleaning purposes.

Her partner was Ji Zhang.

Unfortunately, Ji Zhang didn’t pick a mop or a broom.

He was holding a bag of kids’ favorite snacks.

【I’m dying of laughter! Their items are completely unrelated!】

【It feels like history is repeating itself with the first group, hahaha.】

【A feather duster paired with snacks— absolutely iconic!】

【Actually, it kind of works. Clean first, then snack! Hahaha.】

When the two saw what the other was holding, they couldn’t hold back their laughter.

Their compatibility was indeed lacking.

But compared to the first group, they were slightly better.

Holding a child’s hand, the two of them walked the red carpet together.

Soon, it was the fourth group’s turn.

Mu Jiajia was in this group.

She carried a pot, straight from the guesthouse kitchen. Her partner held a succulent plant.

【A pot and a succulent, hahaha. Seems like the guests still don’t understand each other well enough. The program team needs to step it up and help them get to know each other better. Doge.jpg】

【Whoa, whoa, where are you taking this conversation? But I like it!】

【This is a friendship variety show, but just saying ‘good morning’ and ‘good night’ every day and doing tasks together isn’t enough. Nowhere near enough.】

【Program Team, stir up some drama!】

After Mu Jiajia’s group, the fifth pair stepped onto the carpet.

One was holding a cartoon plush toy, the other a drying rack, walking briskly while holding CEO Ning’s daughter’s hand.

【Awesome!】

【A drying rack made it onto the carpet!】

【So, the most compatible group is still the second one, huh? A perfect score, just lacking a bit of novelty.】

【Guests, come on, step up your game!】

【Lol, looking forward to the next group’s surprise!】

After all five groups had finished their walks, it was finally time for Ning Xiaoyu and Lu Jingdu— the Xiangxiang group.

When Ning Xiaoyu stepped onto the red carpet with a birdcage, she was momentarily stunned by what Lu Jingdu was holding.

〖Love System: Who said the second group is the most compatible? I refuse to accept that! You two are obviously just as in sync!

Girl, I can already picture your retirement life with the movie king!

Your future retired life will definitely be super sweet!〗

Ning Xiaoyu’s birdcage held a myna bird that the guesthouse owner had raised for many years.

Meanwhile, Lu Jingdu was holding a wooden bucket and a fishing rod.

The two exchanged glances, then each took Xiangxiang’s hand and walked down the red carpet together.

【I’m dying! Look at CEO Huo’s expression on the side!】

【Tsk tsk, is CEO Huo regretting joining this show? Who would have thought that a parenting variety show would suddenly cross over with a friendship variety show? When a variety show gets too popular, anything is possible.】

【Not regret, more like he’s missing Mrs. Huo.】

【Xiao Yu and the movie king, plus Xiangxiang— if someone called them a family, it wouldn’t feel out of place at all. CEO Huo is probably jealous.】

【CEO Huo is jealous +1.】

【One is taking a bird for a walk and the other is going fishing. A solid pairing.】

【So Xiao Yu’s personality is officially confirmed— laid-back and chill.】

【The movie king is about to be influenced by her. Love to see it!】

【As expected, the most interesting ones always come last!】

After the entire round of red carpet walks, the compatibility assessments between the guests were more or less determined.

Aside from Ning Yuwei’s group, the sixth group had the highest compatibility.

However, in terms of entertainment value, the sixth group was far ahead of the second.

Overall, the most outstanding performance of this runway walk was undoubtedly the sixth group.

Shen Yueyue clicked her tongue twice, walked up to Ning Xiaoyu, and said, “Xiao Yu, if we were paired together, our compatibility score would definitely be high!”

Even so, Ning Xiaoyu taking a birdcage for a stroll still completely exceeded her expectations.

Ning Xiaoyu’s hobbies seemed to be quite different from those of ordinary people.

Curious, Shen Yueyue asked, “What made you think of walking the red carpet with a birdcage?”

Ning Xiaoyu pressed her lips together and said, “I’ve been eyeing it for a long time.”

Ever since they arrived at the guesthouse, she had passed by the myna bird every day, admiring its sleek, well-groomed feathers.

She had always wanted to take it for a walk but never had the chance.

The owner cherished it dearly.

But now, the program team has given her an opportunity.

Of course, she had to seize it.

The red carpet walk was just a small game. After that came the next interaction segment.

The dads continued their break while the guests paired up to do crafts with the kids, getting a taste of childcare responsibilities.

The program team had prepared various materials for the guests to choose from.

Ning Yuwei selected some yarn and pearl decorations. “Handmade bags are trendy right now. Let’s make some! They’re quite easy.”

Xiao Wei scratched his head. “Big Sister, I’m a boy.”

Ning Yuwei smiled sweetly. “Boys can give them to their sisters. Don’t you have a little sister?”

“I do.”

“Then let’s make a bag!”

Similar conversations happened in other groups as well.

Some were making bags, others were DIY-ing phone cases.

Some were even building Lego sets.

When it was Ning Xiaoyu’s turn, she simply picked up a bundle of ski rope, some needle and thread, and a piece of elastic fabric with pre-stitched edges.

【??? Every other group’s craft project is clear at a glance, but what exactly are Xiao Yu and the movie king making?】

【It isn’t about what Xiao Yu and the movie king are going to do, but rather what Xiao Yu is going to do.】

【I can’t guess.】

【So far, out of the twelve guests, the only one whose pattern I can’t figure out is Xiao Yu.】

【Yes, Xiao Yu’s thoughts can be summed up in three words— ‘Don’t even guess.’】

【Don’t guess. Even if you try, you won’t get it right.】

What Ning Xiaoyu was about to make wasn’t particularly difficult.

Xiangxiang was only four years old this year, so she wasn’t suited for overly complicated crafts.

Holding the materials in her hands, Ning Xiaoyu looked at her teammates. “So, do you know what we’re making?”

Xiangxiang shook her head honestly. “I don’t know.”

Lu Jingdu examined the materials and had a rough idea in his mind. However, to maintain the mystery, he didn’t say anything.

Ning Xiaoyu led her two teammates to a spot between two trees.

While other guests were making handcrafted bags or phone cases, Ning Xiaoyu took the lead and got to work.

“Here, thread the rope through.

This part needs it too.

The head part is a bit complicated, I’ll handle it.”

Before long, the audience figured out what Ning Xiaoyu was making.

【Is it a hammock? It has to be a hammock, right?】

【Seems like it.】

【The other guests: ‘Let’s make a beautiful bag/phone case/Lego set.’ Xiao Yu: ‘Let’s make a hammock.’ Why? To lie down, of course.】

【No wonder she picked a spot between two trees. Now it makes sense.】

Not long after, a simple hammock was complete.

It was securely fastened to the tree trunks and ready for use at any time.

At that moment, the love system’s mission arrived.

〖Girl, this is the first time you’ve completed a craft together with the movie king and Xiangxiang. This holds a special meaning for you. Feelings between people deepen through repeated interactions. Without these interactions, where would the stories and memories come from? Now, you can:

A. Lavishly praise your teammates.

B. Give your teammates a loving hug.

C. Give your teammates an affectionate head rub.〗

After the announcement, the love system eagerly awaited Ning Xiaoyu’s choice.

Xiangxiang was so adorable. How could the host possibly resist giving her an affectionate head rub?

And if she gave Xiangxiang a head rub, then naturally, she would give the other teammate one too.

So pick head rubs! Lots of head rubs!

Let the sweetness rain down!

Of course, Ning Xiaoyu had no idea what the love system was thinking.

Unlike the love-obsessed system, she couldn’t be bothered with all the flowery, sentimental nonsense.

Under the expectant gaze of the love system, Ning Xiaoyu made her choice without hesitation— option a.

In this world, one could go without hugs or head rubs, but never without compliments.

Learning to praise others was an essential life skill.

No matter when, one should never be stingy with words of encouragement.

Ning Xiaoyu clapped her hands. “The hammock is done! You guys did amazing! With our teamwork, we finished this so quickly. This is the result of everyone’s hard work. But we haven’t tested its safety yet. No worries, I’ll do it right now.”

That last twist was completely beyond the love system’s expectations.

〖Love System: Uh…… Girl, you……〗

Before it could finish, Ning Xiaoyu swiftly turned around, and within three seconds, she was already lying comfortably in the hammock.

The hammock’s safety, of course, was unquestionable.

Sturdy, secure, and comfortable.

Even the floral print on the fabric provided by the show’s production team looked fresh and tasteful.

By this point in the recording, it was already quite late.

Walking the red carpet, making crafts— on top of all that, Ning Xiaoyu had spent most of the day running around. She had been wanting to lie down for a while now.

Sure, she had rested in the car earlier, but nothing compared to lying down properly.

As soon as she lay in the hammock, she felt a wave of relaxation wash over her.

Who could possibly resist lying down?

Certainly not Ning Xiaoyu.

She didn’t stay there too long, though. After resting for a while, she let her two teammates take turns experiencing it.

Xiangxiang was used to riding in luxury cars worth millions, and when she camped outdoors, she always had custom-made sleeping bags.

This was her first time lying in a hammock.

Needless to say, her short four-year life had just gained another novel experience.

And lately, all of these new experiences have been brought to her by Ning Xiaoyu.

Digging sand pits, riding a tricycle, making a hammock— all of these were firsts in Xiangxiang’s life.

This big sister seemed different from everyone else.

Xiangxiang couldn’t quite put her finger on what exactly was different, but she knew one thing for sure— she really liked this big sister.

After Xiangxiang’s turn, Lu Jingdu wasn’t left out either.

To make sure her teammates could comfortably enjoy the hammock, Ning Xiaoyu had specifically chosen the largest piece of fabric.

【I haven’t napped in a hammock at the park for so long. I’m definitely going to relive that feeling this weekend.】

【When Xiao Yu said she was going to test its safety, then immediately flopped onto it— what can I say? Classic.】

【Not surprised at all, hahaha.】

【I’m dying of laughter.】

【Classic Xiao Yu move.】

Even the love system, which had been watching the whole time, chimed in loudly, 〖Girl, not bad! This is exactly what I expected from you!〗
