Chapter 118: A Date Is Only a Date When Two Hearts Meet

Wen Zhi stole a somewhat uneasy glance at Xiao Mo's face. Noticing his dark, stormy expression, her heart sank even further.

Right now, Xiao Mo was the only one she had! She mustn't lose him!

With this thought in mind, Wen Zhi walked towards Xiao Mo, completely ignoring the date partner she had just been paired with.

[Oh my god! What's the mermaid up to?]

[I'm confused. Why isn't she going for her own date partner but Xiao Mo instead?]

[Lmao! Does Wen Zhi feel like she's in trouble and realizes Xiao Mo is her only loyal admirer?]

[I'm really worried about Xiao Mo's mental state! A CEO acting like a love - struck fool!]

[Is no one going to clarify? If not, I might start spreading rumors!]

[Loyal admirers end up with nothing in the end!]

[I think you're wrong. In Xiao Mo's mind, it should be—loyal admirers end up with everything!]

[Lmao. Since when did a CEO become a love - struck fool?]

Xiao Mo stared ahead with a gloomy expression. Suddenly, he felt something warm and soft touch his brow.

Almost instantly, he lifted his cold eyes. When he saw the woman in front of him, his gaze softened for a moment, but then turned cold again as he averted his eyes.

His emotions were clearly written on his face, making it easy for Wen Zhi to read.

As expected, Wen Zhi spoke softly, "Xiao Mo, you're angry."

Although it was a question, her tone was full of certainty.

"No," he replied calmly, but Wen Zhi could detect a hint of coldness in his voice.

Wen Zhi's uneasiness grew stronger. Out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Jiang Shihuai, who was wearing a gentle smile.

Wen Zhi gritted her teeth in anger.

It was all that bitch Wen Yin's fault!

Wen Zhi's voice became even softer and more coquettish.

"Xiao Mo, I think there might be some misunderstandings between us."

Hearing this, Xiao Mo's gaze darkened, but he stubbornly avoided making eye contact with Wen Zhi.

[Lmao. She didn't cherish him before. Why is she trying to win back the CEO now?]

[Let me analyze. Wen Yin destroyed all of Wen Zhi's "fish ponds", and Xiao Mo is the only "fish" left. Of course, Wen Zhi has to cherish him!]

[You're so good at analyzing!]

[Lmao. Keep talking if you can!]

[What are you guys talking nonsense about! Wen Zhi is not like that!]

[Can you guys focus on the artists' works instead of their baseless private lives?]

[Do those haters have a heart? Do they know how hard Wen Zhi works?]

[Lmao. First, it was your idol who voluntarily joined this dating show. No one forced her. Second, we're here to ship the CP on this dating show, not to watch her play around. Third, it's her own fault that she's in trouble. We're just objectively commenting. How can we be haters?]

[Lmao. Wen Zhi's fans are so absurd!]

The comment section of the live - broadcast was in an uproar. Wen Zhi's fans were extremely dissatisfied and argued with the passers - by. Wen Zhi's popularity among the general public declined even further.

Wen Zhi was completely unaware that she had lost so much popularity without doing anything.

She racked her brains to cheer Xiao Mo up. "Xiao Mo, I said there are some misunderstandings between us."

Seeing that Xiao Mo remained unmoved, Wen Zhi had to use her secret weapon.

Regardless of the other guests' gazes, her eyes were filled with tears, making her look extremely pitiful.

Sure enough, hearing Wen Zhi's slightly choked voice, Xiao Mo finally turned his head.

Big teardrops rolled down Wen Zhi's face one by one as she looked at Xiao Mo with tear - filled eyes.

"Xiao Mo, I just want to say that you've always been my only choice, no matter when."

After dropping this thought - provoking line, Wen Zhi turned around and went back to the room, seemingly to adjust her emotions.

Shao Yinan gave a cold glance at Wen Zhi's back and had no good impression of this newly - paired female guest.

Whether before or now, Shao Yinan always thought Wen Zhi was very scheming.

The necklace incident during the first live - broadcast had completely destroyed his good impression of her.

Jiang Shihuai somehow sat down next to Wen Yin. His usually gentle tone now carried a hint of nervousness.

Nervousness was a rare emotion for Jiang Shihuai. This seemed to be the first time.

For a moment, Jiang Shihuai was at a loss, not knowing what to say.

"Ms. Wen, is there any place you'd like to go?"

Nervously, Jiang Shihuai first adjusted his gold - rimmed glasses awkwardly, then slowly asked.

"We can use it as the location for our date."

Hearing this, Wen Yin subconsciously frowned. This was completely different from the Jiang Shihuai she remembered.

Wasn't Jiang Shihuai supposed to always have a cold face towards her and scold her for being scheming and unworthy of him?

Why was he acting like a shy young man with a crush now?

Wen Yin was a bit confused for a moment, but she was sure that her heart no longer fluttered at the sight of Jiang Shihuai.

"Mr. Jiang, your words seem a bit inaccurate," Wen Yin said.

Shao Yinan somehow walked behind them. One hand was in his pocket as he gave them a cold look.

For some reason, Wen Yin had the illusion that there was a hint of grievance in Shao Yinan's eyes.

At that moment, her heart softened.

Jiang Shihuai looked at Shao Yinan, whose eyes were filled with hostility, and his eyes reflected a cold light. "What do you mean, Mr. Shao?"

Shao Yinan curled his lips. "What I mean is that a date only counts when it's mutual.

"All you two have is at most a group activity."

Shao Yinan said it casually, turning the carefully - planned date by the director into a group activity.

[Hahaha. Is Shao Yinan trying to laugh me to death so he can inherit my Alipay bill?]

[The word "group activity" is so on - point!]

[Here comes a jealous male guest!]

[But to be honest, Shao Yinan looks so cute when he's jealous!]

[Jiang Shihuai must be shocked by Shao Yinan's amazing words! Hahaha!]

A sudden smile spread across Wen Yin's face. She felt her heart soften even more.

Jiang Shihuai gritted his teeth. "You don't need to worry about our business, Mr. Shao."
