"What's in the bag you're holding?" Lin Jinran tilted her head slightly to look. Most of the bag was blocked.
Su Qinian coughed awkwardly. Under everyone's gaze, he slowly walked behind Lin Jinran's sofa. Lin Jinran turned her head curiously to look at him.
Su Qinian reached out, revealing the whole bag. He carefully placed it beside the person he loved and said, "A gift for you."
"Don't tell me you rushed out just to buy me a gift?" Lin Jinran was both surprised and delighted. She suddenly stood up.
"Yes, a small gift." The man's voice trembled slightly from his chest. He seemed a bit shy and at a loss. He lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the gift bag. "I don't want you to be the only one without a gift when other girls receive them."
Lin Jinran took the gift. Caught off guard by these words, she clearly felt her cheeks burning. She couldn't control it at all.
"Open it and take a look." Su Qinian lifted his chin slightly and urged.
"Okay." Lin Jinran whispered. She carefully opened the gift as if it were a precious treasure. Su Qinian walked around the sofa and sat down beside her again.
"It's so sweet. It's really too sweet." He Jiao was munching on sunflower seeds and laughing uncontrollably. She pulled Jiang Yaoguang beside her to munch on sunflower seeds together. "Come on, let's munch together."
Jiang Yaoguang looked at the sunflower seeds with a complicated expression. Then she looked at He Jiao. Finally, she silently withdrew her gaze.
It was really sweet.
There was a small gift box in the bag. Lin Jinran paused for a moment. Then she picked it up and opened it. A light-colored bracelet was lying quietly in the box like black velvet.
"Try it on." Su Qinian said with a smile.
Lin Jinran took out the bracelet and put it on her hand. The light-colored bracelet was low-key and unassuming. It blended perfectly with her skin tone.
It seemed that the past haze was gradually dissipating, and she was the same as she used to be.
Lin Jinran was slightly stunned. Her eyes were red, and tears welled up in them, like a lake wet by the spring rain, sparkling.
"Thank you, Su Qinian. I like it very much." She took a deep breath. Then she looked up. Her misty eyes were full of tears, rippling slightly.
"I'm glad you like it." Su Qinian rubbed her head.
The hair she had just tied up was messed up. The previous touch disappeared in an instant. Lin Jinran glared at him and slapped away Su Qinian's hand. She loosened the hair tie and tied her hair while complaining, "Don't think I'll be extremely touched just because you gave me a bracelet. I won't."
Su Qinian knew very well that she was just trying to cover up her emotions just now. He nodded indulgently and said, "Okay, okay, okay."
After chatting in the living room for a while, Su Qinian went to the room to record a heart-throbbing message. Then he came back to the living room and went to the base for receiving heart-throbbing messages with everyone.
Everyone was sitting around the bench. Lin Jinran was the first to raise her hand to check the heart-throbbing message. She put on the earphones. As always, it was Su Qinian's familiar voice.
"Ranran, I'm really unhappy that I wasn't the one dating you this afternoon. So I need to explain what happened this morning. I woke up at around six o'clock, but there were too many things to do around me. I was busy all the time and accidentally missed your breakfast. If I had seen the small dessert next to the sandwich and recognized it as yours at the first sight, that kid Xie Yun wouldn't have gotten it so easily."
Su Qinian's heart-throbbing message was very long, but it was also very cute, with a hint of inaudible grievance and jealousy.
Lin Jinran listened patiently. The smile on her lips deepened.
Then, there was a second heart-throbbing message from Xie Yun.
"Thank you for taking me to the zoo this afternoon. I had a great time with you today. I like it very much. Actually, I've always wanted to ask you a question. Among the three male guests, who do you like the most? If possible, please pat that person on the head when you come back to the bench."
Lin Jinran was stunned. Then she looked up at Xie Yun.
[Exciting love triangle. Xie Yun's question is really good. Does he want to give up completely?]
[Yesterday or the day before, they played truth or dare. Someone also asked Lin Jinran who she had the most affection for among the people present. Lin Jinran answered Su Qinian. Xie Yun is asking again. Is it the last confirmation?]
[It should be. Today is the fourth day. There are only three days left. There isn't much time. The mutual attraction between Su Qinian and Lin Jinran is also very obvious.]
Lin Jinran took a deep breath. She took off the earphones and slowly stood up. She walked towards the long table step by step with a firm look in her eyes.
Xie Yun looked up at her nervously with a glimmer of hope.
Su Qinian was looking forward to her sitting back beside him.
When passing by Su Qinian, Lin Jinran patted his hair. She glanced at Xie Yun and said calmly, "There was a leaf on your head. I helped you pat it off. You don't need to thank me too much."
Su Qinian looked at her amusingly, not understanding.
The light in Xie Yun's eyes completely dimmed.
The others were just watching the show.
Su Qinian was the second to receive the heart-throbbing message.
The first one was from Lin Jinran: "Su Qinian, I really didn't expect you to buy me a gift right away when you saw other girls receiving gifts. I'm very touched and happy. Thank you."
"There's no need to say thank you between you and me. When will you really open your heart?" Su Qinian looked at the tablet. His voice was very soft and faint, scattered in the air. The live broadcast room didn't capture it.
The second one was from Jiang Yaoguang. As soon as Su Qinian heard it, he frowned slightly.
"Teacher Su, how about my choice of the amusement park this afternoon? Was it very fun? This was the first time I entered an amusement park after I became an adult. I didn't expect it to be with Teacher Su. I'm very honored. Thank you, Teacher Su, for spending the afternoon with me."
As soon as the voice ended, Su Qinian immediately took off the earphones. He took a long breath and walked back with his long legs.
After that, Gu Huai and He Jiao sent messages to each other. Jiang Yaoguang and Xie Yun didn't receive any heart-throbbing messages. The heart-throbbing message session ended.
The director held a megaphone and announced the new rules for the heart-throbbing message session: "From tomorrow on, the heart-throbbing messages in the heart-throbbing message session will be played out loud. The rest remains the same."
"Tomorrow, the male guests will invite the female guests for a date. Tomorrow morning, the program team will announce three dating locations. The female guests will choose first. They are not allowed to disclose the information. Then the male guests will choose in turn."
It was another random date. Su Qinian patiently listened to the director's announcement. Then he calmly went back with everyone.
It was almost twelve o'clock. Lin Jinran was lying in bed chatting with her friend Qiao Songyue.
[Qiao Songyue]: "You and Su Qinian actually secretly participated in a dating show? How come I just found out now!!!"
[Lin Jinran]: "Innocent.jpg. Your internet speed is a bit slow. Pay attention. You can't talk to me about anything related to the show. The program team has requirements."
[Qiao Songyue]: "I know this. I'm really shocked. My high school classmate suddenly sent me a link and asked, Yueyue, is this the person you used to like? Then I took a look. I was so shocked that my heart broke."
Seeing this, Lin Jinran pursed her lips and smiled. Just as she was about to type and send a message, there was a sudden knock on the door. She quickly clicked send and then went to open the door.
It was Su Qinian.
"Ranran, I bribed the director to find out about tomorrow's schedule. Let's talk quietly."
