CHAPTER 418: CHAPTER 416: WAIT AND SEE

With only half an hour left in the live broadcast, the "Ceiling couple" had already secured their spot as today’s number one limited-time couple, their votes far surpassing the second-place Fang Baichen and Tong Zhi, and leaving the last-place Qi Ming and Ning Li a whopping eight hundred streets behind.

When netizens saw this ranking, they laughed.

[Did Wen Qiao and Qi Ming butt heads? Both are first, one with a positive number and the other with a negative.]

[You pair up with another man for a CP, I’ll date another woman. Let’s see who loses first.]

[Is it the Ceiling couple, or Wen Ji and Qi Wu couple, or the Qi Li couple, let’s wait and see.]

[Why are Qi Ming’s group’s votes so low? Their broadcast has the second highest number of viewers.]

[Oh, it’s nothing, mainly because I want to see what kind of punishment the last place will get.]

[Qi Ming has so many fans, the result shouldn’t have been like this, right?]

[I am a fan of Qi Ming, and ever since I saw him screaming in the escape room last episode, I’ve been fixated on it and really want to see him punished again.]

Compared to these two highly popular and topical limited-time couples, the performances of the other three couples were not particularly outstanding, but they were quite entertaining to watch.

Shi Koufan probably hadn’t been in love before, nor was he very good at interacting with girls. When the staff announced today’s content was limited-time romance, he started to filter through all the idol dramas he had seen.

After splitting up, he took Lin Zhiyun straight to the amusement park, where they coincidentally caught the Chinese Valentine’s Day activities, spent three hundred yuan for two tickets, and went on every amusement ride one by one after entering.

The two of them had a blast, it was the cameraman who suffered.

He could manage to shoot the relatively calm rides, but on the dizzying ones like the pendulum, roller coaster, and drop tower, he could only stand on the ground with his lens zoomed in as much as possible. The result was, he captured a bunch of reaction shots of the two which immediately made it online.

Shen Zai’s mouth was also known to be formidable in the circle, always leaving the media speechless in interviews. His partner, Feng Susu from Tomato Channel, was a famous talker. Together, they fired off comedy skits one after another, turning the limited-time romance show into a comedy performance.

Unlike the lively scenes with the first four couples, the scene changed to a calm and peaceful one when it shifted to Fang Baichen and Tong Zhi.

Since Fang Baichen was married with family, it was impossible for them to exhibit ambiguous behavior. After discussing it, they decided to visit places that cultivate the body and soul, shifting from tea houses to calligraphy rooms, fully embodying the idyllic notion of "peaceful times."

Fortunately, Tong Zhi’s personality was also quite calm, and she had no particular concern for rankings.

She was careful to maintain an appropriate distance with Fang Baichen throughout the process, treating him completely as an elder.

The audience was very satisfied with this. After being accustomed to the chaos, watching this tranquil scene felt refreshingly different.

Furthermore, Fang Baichen and Tong Zhi played siblings who relied on each other in a drama, which had many viewers crying and unable to help themselves. Seeing the two of them together again, people exclaimed nostalgically.

So, the number of viewers in their broadcast room remained stable, and with the deliberate actions of Qi Ming’s fans, they stayed in second place.

It was quite an unexpected outcome.

Director Li was more than satisfied with the results of this episode. Seeing that three of the top ten trending searches were related to his show, he couldn’t stop smiling.

After the broadcast ended, he generously booked a private room to celebrate with a meal.
