Chapter 103 Extra 6
This unexpected live broadcast caused Lu Jiuxu to experience a major social death in front of everyone.
However, a domineering CEO is still a domineering CEO—having seen so many big scenes, he didn’t let this matter bother him.
After finishing his last solo meeting and returning to the office, Lu Jiuxu seemed more composed than anyone else on the scene.
On the other hand, the staff from the production team were all awkwardly exchanging glances, feeling very embarrassed.
Especially the two PDs following him. As soon as they saw Lu Jiuxu, they immediately apologized, saying that it was truly an accident.
Е́ n ù ṁa_
After all, when Lu Jiuxu wasn’t talking or smiling, just standing there, he exuded an aura of at least two meters and eighty centimeters.
In front of such a business tycoon, the staff were all cautious and careful, afraid of offending him.

But surprisingly, Lu Jiuxu was unexpectedly easygoing, treating everyone politely.
Seeing that Lu Jiuxu didn’t seem to be planning to pursue the unexpected live broadcast incident, the staff finally relaxed.
After filming a few sweet shots of Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu leaving work together, the team quickly left.
Without the cameras following them, Su Xingyao got into Lu Jiuxu’s car.
Е̊n̆ûm̀ а
However, while he had been energetic earlier, he now seemed a bit down.
Lu Jiuxu, who habitually buckled Su Xingyao’s seatbelt for him, noticed his distracted expression as soon as he looked up. He pinched his chin, making Su Xingyao turn to look at him.
“Wasn’t I the one who had a social death today? Why do you look so unhappy?”
Lu Jiuxu smiled, deliberately asking, “Do you think I’m not good enough?”

Su Xingyao raised his eyes, looking at Lu Jiuxu under the dim light of the garage.
He hurriedly explained, “No.”
Ê ǹ ŭm̀а
“I just think, I shouldn’t have gone straight to your office tonight.”
He had brought so many staff members along.
He didn’t like to disturb Lu Jiuxu’s work, so he had never gone to his office before.
Today, it was his first time, taking advantage of the production team’s recording.
Who would have thought, they’d end up capturing such an image.
Su Xingyao could see the live comments on his phone.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Although everyone was laughing and teasing Lu Jiuxu about his social death, in fact… Su Xingyao was quite moved.
Even though he had already been 100% certain of Lu Jiuxu’s feelings for him.
But witnessing such a specific and intimate feeling of being constantly kept in someone’s heart, it was always so moving.
However, such matters were deeply personal and private. If it were him, he wouldn’t want to be captured like that either.
Not to mention someone as proud as Lu Jiuxu.
Seeing the self-blame written all over Su Xingyao’s face, Lu Jiuxu lowered his head to study him for a moment. Then, he gently raised his hand to stroke his hair.
Е́ ñ u̇m̆a
“It’s okay.”
Lu Jiuxu softly reassured him, and with that one casual sentence, the matter was completely closed.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
He said, “There’s nothing wrong with showing how much I love you.”
After saying this, Lu Jiuxu placed his hand inside his suit jacket and quickly pulled something out.
“Give me one hand.”
Su Xingyao watched as the other person held out his right hand, and he hurriedly opened his palm out of curiosity.
W̄е b́ n ö ṽe l̇ E num̈а̂
The next second, a beautifully packaged candy gently fell into his hand.
Lu Jiuxu’s eyes were filled with a smile. “I brought this for you, try it.”
Su Xingyao stared at the candy in his hand for a moment, then unwrapped it, opening his lips to gently suck on it.
The fresh and sweet strawberry flavor immediately spread throughout his mouth, sweet like a rainbow that suddenly appeared in the sky after the rain.

Su Xingyao’s gloomy mood instantly cleared up.
“I saw the painting I gave you on your desk.”
Е ñ um а.і̃ d̆
While everyone had been focusing on the photos of Su Xingyao that Lu Jiuxu had displayed, the first thing Su Xingyao noticed was, in fact, the painting of the blue gum and the eastern koel bird that he had given Lu Jiuxu the night they confirmed their relationship.
At some point, Lu Jiuxu had carefully scanned the painting, printed it in a smaller size, and placed it in the most prominent spot near his desk.
Lu Jiuxu’s eyes curled up slightly, with a glimmer of light in them, and he chuckled lightly.
“That’s our token of love.”
The pre-heating live broadcast on Saturday created a huge discussion wave across the entire internet.
This naturally generated a lot of buzz for the “In the Name of Love” production team.

On the day of the official recording, the live streaming platform even set a historic record for reservations.
On Monday afternoon, when Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu arrived at the recording venue, the four couples invited for the first episode of this dating reality show finally came together.
As soon as Su Xingyao arrived, a sunny young man waved at him.
“Hi, Xingyao.”
The person greeting him enthusiastically was Gao Zitai, a guest from the first season of In the Name of Love.
Before coming, Su Xingyao had watched the first season of In the Name of Love, so he had a strong impression of this sunny, outgoing, and straightforward celebrity.
W̄ ӗ b nоv́еl̇ Ě n̊ u m ӑ_
Gao Zitai was actually quite similar to Su Xingyao in some ways. Of course, besides his sociable nature, which allowed him to easily get along with anyone, it was also because he had a good relationship with Lin Yanyan. After learning that Lin Yanyan highly appreciated Su Xingyao, he naturally developed a strong fondness for him.
So, when he saw Su Xingyao for the first time, he immediately greeted him warmly.

“You and Mr. Lu finally made it!”
After that, the extremely outgoing Gao Zitai naturally began introducing the other three couples to Su Xingyao.
This time, the couples participating in the show included Gao Zitai and his childhood friend, Song Zixuan, who were a non-romantic, versatile practice couple. Another pair was singer Wang Xiaoyi and her actor husband Chen Zifan, forming the newlywed “Wang Chen” couple.
The remaining pair, following the configuration of practice couple, young couple, newlywed couple, and copper anniversary couple, was the Baiyun couple: Jian Yunqiu and Gu Baifeng, who had just celebrated their seven-year wedding anniversary.

All the guests were very nice. After chatting for a while, they quickly became familiar with each other.
Once the guests had gotten to know each other, the show’s chief director, Song Yingming, appeared before them with a smile.
It was likely due to the fact that he had invited the Xingxu CP to participate in the dating show recently, and the pre-live broadcast had already contributed a famous scene from Lu Jiuxu’s office. Once again being dubbed as the top variety show director in the entertainment industry by netizens, he looked radiant. Even his previously receding hairline had mysteriously grown back a little.
While Su Xingyao observed Song Yingming’s hair, the latter smiled and began the familiar opening speech.

“Hello, guests. Welcome to the recording of the rebooted season of In the Name of Love. I am the chief director, Song Yingming.”
“As you all know, the first task in a dating show is to choose a room.”
Ӗn û mа̊ .ї d
After finishing this, he snapped his fingers, and the staff behind him quickly brought out four pictures.
However, unexpectedly, the pictures presented by the staff were not the rooms that the guests would be staying in that night but instead four different menus.
The four menus corresponded to four themes:
A seafood feast theme
A fancy bean dish theme
A meat-themed menu
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
And… a plain soup theme.
Seeing the pictures in front of him, Gao Zitai loudly exclaimed, “Eh?”
Wang Xiaoyi also looked at Song Yingming in confusion. “Director Song, weren’t we supposed to choose a room? Why are you showing us the menus?”
Song Yingming chuckled and slowly explained, “If we directly showed you the rooms, wouldn’t it lose all the mystery? Isn’t it good to first look at tonight’s menu?”
After hearing Song Yingming’s words, Gao Zitai, who was well aware of his tricks, couldn’t help but feel an ominous premonition rising in his chest.
He lightly bumped his shoulder against Song Zixuan, who was standing next to him. “Why do I feel like there’s a big trap waiting for us?”
Е̇ ǹ ú m̄а̃ . і̄d̄
Song Zixuan put his arm around his shoulder. “I feel that way too.”
Upon hearing Song Yingming’s words, the netizens watching the live stream immediately shared Gao Zitai’s thoughts.

【Hahaha, I knew things couldn’t be this simple.】
【This is exactly how Song Yingming’s variety shows should be.】
【Hehe, just now, the way Song Zixuan hugged Gao Zitai, it was a little cute.】
【Are you two really just childhood friends, not a couple?】
Е nũ mа̀ . іd
After showing the pictures, Song Yingming cheerfully asked the guests, “Before we announce the task, does anyone have any questions they’d like to ask in advance?”
Jian Yunqiu and her husband quickly raised their hands.
“I, I, I!”
“Director Song, does this big meal correspond to different types of rooms?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Song Yingming nodded. “Of course.”
Wang Xiaoyi also quickly asked, “So does a better dinner correspond to a better room?”
Е̃ n̈um̆а
Song Yingming’s eyes narrowed into a smile. “That’s something I can’t reveal in advance.”
Hearing this, the guests couldn’t help but feel a bit tense.
So, the first trap of the show had been set right there!
They wouldn’t know what kind of room they would get until they chose their dinner…
Would a good meal correspond to a good room, or would a bad meal still get them a good room? No one knew the trick, making it as exciting as opening a blind box.
After hearing the rules, the two female guests couldn’t help but joke and mock Song Yingming half-heartedly.

It was at that moment that Lu Jiuxu, who had been quiet until now, suddenly spoke up softly.
“Can we see the dishes in the themed packages first?”
As soon as Lu Jiuxu spoke, all eyes instinctively turned toward him.
The audience was also curious.
After watching dating shows for so many years, viewers usually just paid attention to the overall theme of the meal, but Lu Jiuxu was the first guest to ask to see the specific dishes.
Although the focus seemed a bit odd, since the person asking was Lu Jiuxu, everyone felt it made sense. After all, someone with his status might have a more detailed way of thinking compared to ordinary people.
Although surprised by the question, Song Yingming nodded and had the staff display the details of the themed meal packages.
W e bn ȯ v èl Еn ůḿ а̇
After seeing the specific dishes, the other three couples were all extremely intrigued.
Especially the seafood feast, which was the first on the list, was unexpectedly rich and delicious, fully designed to resemble a Michelin-star meal.

On the other hand, the last option, the plain broth meal, truly lived up to its name—bland and unimpressive.
Although the guests weren’t required to cook themselves, the prepared meal consisted of only two dishes, both extremely simple and vegetarian. Truly, it was just “plain broth and water.”
After seeing the dishes, the guests began to form their initial expectations. The seafood meal naturally became the top choice for many.
Once all the meal options had been displayed, Song Yingming checked with everyone again,
“Is there anything else you’d like to know?”
Ŵ е̌b̂ṅ ӧ v́ e l Е̊n ũ ṁȧ
The guests responded in unison,
“Nope.”
“Alright then, let’s move on to the first task of the day.”
With that, Song Yingming, who loved blind box surprises, brought out ten blind boxes.
“Let’s have one of the guests draw a task.”
The blind box would determine how difficult the guests’ challenges would be, so after a brief discussion, they decided to let Gao Zitai draw.

Gao Zitai picked through the boxes, finally choosing the one that seemed the most appealing. He eagerly opened it, and a box of cookies fell out.
Song Yingming let out a surprised “Wow!” and the staff quickly distributed the cookies to each guest.
W е̇b nо́_v̂ёl_ É n ũ ḿå
Looking at the cookie in his hand, Su Xingyao had a pretty good idea of what the task might be.
Not only him, but after seeing the prop, the viewers also became excited.
【Ahhh, could this be the task I think it is?】
【Is this dating show going to be this fun? Starting off with something this exciting!!】
【Director Song, you really know what the audience wants to see.】
As the viewers had guessed, the first task the program had prepared was for the couples to eat cookies together!
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Song Yingming took a cookie from the box and took a bite.
“Zitai is quite lucky, the task he drew is very simple. All the guests have to do is work together to finish eating the cookies.”
“The winner will be the group that either takes the least time or has the fewest cookies left.”
He added, “But if you accidentally touch your lips during the process, it will be considered a violation.”
The task was nothing new, but it was a classic.
When viewers imagined what the task would look like, the screen was flooded with excited comments.
Ẁēḃ no v̊ èl _Е̄ńů m̃ а́
【Xingxu Xingxu (laughing), when eating the cookie, just kiss boldly!】
The comments from viewers quickly flooded the screen, full of teasing and excitement:

【LJX, let me tell you… the first place doesn’t matter, kissing is the most important!】
【Why eat cookies when you can just eat your wife instead?】
【Hahaha, the other couples are real lovers, but for the two childhood friends, this game must be the most awkward, right?】
Even before the task began, viewers were already speculating about the final results.
Ë n̈ ú m̌ а̃. і d
Next, the production team had the four couples draw lots to determine the order of the task.
Su Xingyao opened his lot and saw that he had drawn number 4.
Lu Jiuxu raised an eyebrow and instinctively wrapped his arm around Su Xingyao’s waist, whispering in his ear, “We’re in luck.”
What Lu Jiuxu didn’t know was that his spontaneous ear nuzzling with Su Xingyao was caught on the high-definition camera.

【Aww, look at them!】
【Lu Jiuxu really loves holding his wife’s waist.】

【The way he instinctively holds his waist is so smooth, must do this a lot, huh Lu Jiuxu?】
【Whispering in your wife’s ear, I’ve subscribed for VIP, say it out loud, we all want to hear!】
While viewers were curious about what Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu were saying, Gao Zitai, who had drawn number 1, was already complaining loudly.
“What the heck, why am I first again? Is this task trying to take my life?!”
Right after he yelled, Song Zixuan, standing next to him, looked at him with a somewhat hurt expression.
“Do you not want to do this task with me?”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
Gao Zitai immediately looked awkward, his expression shifting, and surprisingly, he lowered his voice and said, “It’s not that, don’t overthink it.”
But it was clear that Gao Zitai wasn’t very good at playing the cookie-eating game.
He was incredibly stiff throughout the whole process while holding the cookie, and in the end, it was Song Zixuan who finished most of it by himself.
Unexpectedly, though, their result was still quite impressive.
When they finished, only about 1 cm of cookie was left.
The first group was so strong that the other couples began feeling the pressure.
Ẃẽ b̈n о v̄ е l̈ Ӗ n ũm̃ a
Next up was the Baiyun couple, who, despite being in their mid-thirties, referred to themselves as the “elderly group” among all the younger couples.
However, the “elderly group” didn’t perform badly. They successfully completed the challenge, their result just slightly behind the childhood friends.

Jian Yunqiu looked at her cookie with a hint of regret. “If I had known, I would have tried just a little harder.”
She then glanced at Wang Xiaoyi and Su Xingyao, “Now, it’s up to you two.”
Su Xingyao smiled and nodded, while on Wang Xiaoyi’s side, she had already bitten into the cookie and was preparing to start.
The result was that, whether it was from being too eager or something else, the cookie broke in half and fell off as they bit into it too quickly.
Е̌ n ũm а_. і̀d̆
Wang Xiaoyi, seeing this, was utterly distressed.
She glared at her husband. “Why are you biting so fast?”
He apologized with a smile and quickly kissed the corner of her lips.
The viewers, who were watching the live broadcast, weren’t just there to see them do the task—they were waiting for this moment of “dog food” (public displays of affection).

As soon as the two kissed, the number of comments skyrocketed.
Fans of the Xingxu CP couldn’t help but get excited.
W̌е̇ b̃ n оve ĺ Е̃_n̊ ū m̄ӑ
【Please, I want to see Xingxu do a kiss like that too!】
【Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss—winning or losing doesn’t matter!! I just want to see Xingxu kiss on the live broadcast!】
【Lu Jiuxu, don’t say I didn’t warn you, during the task, make sure to kiss your wife’s lips until they’re swollen!】
【Fans are already getting excited!!】
The results of the three previous couples’ tasks were either impressive or had ended prematurely.
Now that they had finished their tasks, all eyes were on the last couple, Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu, who had yet to complete their challenge.

Although Wang Xiaoyi hadn’t shown it on the show, she was actually a fan of the Xingxu couple.
Now that it was her favorite couple’s turn to interact, she couldn’t contain her excitement and jumped up in place.
“Xingyao, it’s your turn!”
Su Xingyao smiled at her and confidently stood in front of the camera.
But it was clear that Lu Jiuxu, who was participating in a variety show for the first time, was even more at ease with the romantic variety show format than Su Xingyao.
As the staff prepared the timer, Lu Jiuxu casually picked up a cookie and put it in his mouth.
Ѐn̄ú m̀ а
His actions were slow and graceful, looking effortless yet incredibly charming.
When the staff called for the start, he lowered his gaze casually, wrapped one arm around Su Xingyao’s waist, and leaned down to feed the cookie to his lips.

The viewers were going wild.
【Ahhhhhh!!!】
【This scene!!!!】
【A total A-class moment, Mr. Lu!!!】

【Damn, he’s so handsome I can’t even close my legs.】
【So this is how the dominant character in Jinjiang Literature City is like!!】
【The CEO x Top Star couple truly is celestial perfection!】
【Ahhhhhhh, just now when Lu Jiuxu held the waist and lowered his head, it really looked like a kiss, who understands?】

【The movements are all in place, forget the cookie, just kiss me already!!】
【Kiss kiss kiss, here comes the Kiss Kiss squad!】
Wе̌ b̌ n̈ оṽé l̇ Е n ūm a
The scene in front of the camera made the viewers afraid to blink even once.
They were worried that if they blinked, they would miss the amazing kiss moment.
Feeling the cookie near his lips, Su Xingyao opened his pink lips and slowly began eating the cookie in rhythm with Lu Jiuxu.
However, as the action continued, the distance between him and Lu Jiuxu gradually shortened as the cookie got smaller.
With every passing moment and the shrinking cookie, Su Xingyao was completely surrounded by his lover’s presence, feeling as though he would be kissed any second.
But under the pressure of the task, they had to constantly restrain themselves, careful not to touch each other.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
In this ambiguous, almost-together situation, Su Xingyao—though not kissing for the first time—felt his whole body tense up.
It was both nervous and thrilling.
He gently adjusted his quickened breathing and lowered his eyes to look at the now very short cookie.
Su Xingyao, who usually took tasks seriously, slowed down, trying to measure the remaining distance.
But just as he got distracted, Lu Jiuxu’s hand, which had been resting on his shoulder, suddenly grasped the back of his neck.
“Focus.”
Е n̂u m̂ а̂.і́ ď
His voice was low and husky, tinged with a hint of dominance and intensity.
For a brief moment, Su Xingyao almost felt as if he were truly kissing him.
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
The temperature between their bodies, pressed so closely together, began to rise.
The air around them was filled with Lu Jiuxu’s unique scent, causing Su Xingyao’s ears to redden and his legs to feel as if they had suddenly lost strength.
It seemed as though his lover had already sensed everything.
The hand around his waist tightened, and Lu Jiuxu slightly tilted his head, pushing the distance between their lips even closer in a teasing, subtle motion.
Е̊ nù m а̊.. ī d
The surrounding screams were no longer audible to Su Xingyao. At this moment, his entire world consisted of Lu Jiuxu.
When their lips were almost touching, Su Xingyao instinctively lifted his chin.
Snap.
The fragile remaining piece of cookie, with barely any left, couldn’t hold on any longer and fell to the ground.

In the next second, Su Xingyao was enveloped in a warm embrace.
“We won.”
Еn̈ ůḿ а
In the corner where the camera couldn’t see, Lu Jiuxu’s lips lightly and quickly kissed Su Xingyao’s reddened earlobe.
Having witnessed the entire scene, Wang Xiaoyi, a fan of the couple, was already dazed, leaning in her husband’s arms.
The viewers trembled, their hands shaking, screaming even louder than the scream chickens.
【Ahhhhhhh, just now Xingxu didn’t kiss, but why do I feel so excited watching it!!!】
【How can eating a cookie be so intense!】
【This wasn’t even a kiss, but it felt more intense than if they had actually kissed.】

【Ahhhhh, this sexual tension is off the charts.】
【Lu Jiuxu is indeed “eating” his wife, ahhhhhh.】
【That last movement when Su Xingyao lifted his chin really seemed like he was subconsciously asking for a kiss from Lu Jiuxu, who understands.】
【There really is this kind of vibe between them where it feels like they’re about to kiss at any second.】
【Ahhhh, stop, stop, I’m already dizzy from all this.】
【Where are the Xingxu fans? Can you handle this scene? If there aren’t at least 800 or 1,000 fanfics of this tonight, would it do justice to the main couple’s gaze like that?】

The cookie game ended, and the Xingxu couple undoubtedly became the top winners of the night.
The ambiguous atmosphere hadn’t dissipated, but the other defeated guests had already started teasing them.

“Xingyao, how many times have you and Mr. Lu practiced this?”
“Even with such a short distance, you could control yourselves and not kiss, I truly admire you.”
“Why don’t you two just kiss already, haha.”
Lu Jiuxu smiled without responding to their teasing.

At that moment, Song Yingming appeared in front of everyone and announced the winners of the round.
“Let’s congratulate the Xingxu couple for winning first place tonight.”
He then handed the four cards from earlier to Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu.
“As the reward for winning this round, you can choose your favorite food first.”

Gao Zitai, who had narrowly lost by 0.2 cm, stared longingly at the seafood feast that just slipped through his fingers.
“My seafood feast!!!”
Ẁ ӗ b̌ǹ ov еl Е̃n̂ūm̊а̂
He hadn’t gotten it the last time he was on the show.
And now, once again, it had eluded him.
Just as he was about to lament how history always seems so strikingly similar, thinking that he would never get to enjoy the seafood feast from the “In the Name of Love” show, Lu Jiuxu’s words took him by surprise.
“We’ll choose the clear broth set.”
It seemed like no one in the room had quite heard him clearly, and they all asked in unison, “What?”
Lu Jiuxu casually picked up the image and held it up to the camera, saying again, “We’ll choose this one.”

Gao Zitai looked at Lu Jiuxu in disbelief, then turned to Su Xingyao, who hadn’t spoken, as if to confirm with him.
To his surprise, Su Xingyao smiled and nodded, “Yes, we’re choosing the clear broth set.”
【?????】
【Has the big shot grown tired of rich seafood and wants something lighter?】
【But isn’t this a little too plain? Or are they reversing the routine?】
After the repeated confirmations from the couple, Gao Zitai suddenly became the person struck by happiness.
Ӗn ûm̂а
He unexpectedly got the seafood feast he had been longing for.
While everyone was eating, Gao Zitai couldn’t bear to watch Su Xingyao and his partner eating the turnip soup and stir-fried cabbage. So, when the production crew wasn’t paying attention, he pushed the shrimp and crab closest to Su Xingyao’s side.

Before he could quietly suggest to Su Xingyao to eat them, the seafood he was pushing was stopped by Lu Jiuxu.
“He’s allergic.”
“Ah…”
Gao Zitai quickly withdrew his hand, finally understanding why Lu Jiuxu had given him the best set.
Е̂ ṅ ům̆ ã
It was because Su Xingyao was allergic!
At this realization, he glanced at the two dishes in front of Su Xingyao and then at the dishes the other two guests had received, and immediately caught on.
“So there are allergens in the other sets too?”
Before Su Xingyao could speak, Lu Jiuxu’s gaze swept across several of the dishes.

First, the bean set had “mung beans, soybeans, tomatoes.”
Then, the meat set had “rabbit meat, goose meat.”

“Besides those, there are also shrimp, crab, oysters, and raw peanuts.”
After hearing this long list of foods, Gao Zitai’s eyes widened in shock.
“There… are so many things that can’t be eaten?”
While he admired how clearly Lu Jiuxu remembered all this, he also looked at Su Xingyao with a sympathetic gaze.
Su Xingyao smiled calmly and explained to him.
“I actually have allergic asthma.”
Dilarang mengopy novel dari Enuma.id.
“As long as you avoid these foods, there shouldn’t be any problems.”
At this moment, all the previous unanswered questions were finally resolved, and Gao Zitai suddenly realized, looking at Lu Jiuxu.
“No wonder, Mr. Lu, you had to check the menu first.”
Their conversation was transmitted through the camera to every netizen’s ears. It was only then that everyone belatedly realized Lu Jiuxu’s attentiveness and his care for Su Xingyao.
【Damn, LJX, you’re so thoughtful!】
【Mr. Lu must have really memorized all of these, naming each one without hesitation.】

【I knew something was off, but it turns out it was because of the wife’s allergy!】
【No wonder the wife wanted a kiss but held back, it was to make sure they got first place.】

【Ah, another point added to the Xingxu ship.】
【My wife Susu has allergic asthma? I hope it never flares up again.】
After hearing about Su Xingyao’s allergens, Gao Zitai became more careful. He quickly moved his hand, which had touched the shrimp, far away and then asked Su Xingyao, “What about fish? You’re not allergic to fish, right?”
“I’m not allergic.”
Е̄ n um̂ â . ї.d
After Su Xingyao nodded, Gao Zitai immediately asked Song Zixuan, who hadn’t touched any seafood, to pass the fish to Su Xingyao.
This time, Lu Jiuxu didn’t stop them. After politely thanking him, he lowered his head, carefully picked out the fish bones, and then placed the fish into Su Xingyao’s bowl.
The guests, who were eating with Lu Jiuxu, a business mogul, felt their understanding of things was completely refreshed.
【Lu Jiuxu is truly the perfect boyfriend.】

【Picking fish bones really tests your patience. If it were me, I’d be annoyed already.】
【So, Lu Jiuxu has a wife and you don’t.】
【………………………That hit deep, bro.】
After the dinner, it was finally time for the most tense and exciting part of the night—revealing the accommodations.
Since Su Xingyao and the others had chosen the worst dinner, the production team asked them to be the first to reveal the accommodation corresponding to the clear broth set.
Su Xingyao took the card from the staff, lowered his eyelashes, and began tearing open the paper on the back of the card little by little.

Soon, the answer appeared on the card in his hand.
Su Xingyao’s eyes flickered with a hint of surprise.
【Ahhh, where is my wife staying tonight?】
【Don’t tell me it’s that straw hut from the first season again.】
【Please, let my wife and Mr. Lu stay in a luxury suite, a hot spring room, or even a romantic couple’s room—I’ll take anything.】
【The person above…】
Wеb́nо̂ vе̄ l̂ Е̃nu̇m̀ a
Seeing Su Xingyao’s reaction, the other guests grew curious as well.
Jian Yunqiu quickly asked, “Xingyao, what kind of suite is it?”

Su Xingyao didn’t answer directly. Instead, he lifted the card in his hand and waved it toward Lu Jiuxu in front of him.
With a smile, his tone rose slightly at the end.
“It’s the Garden Suite.”
Upon hearing it was such a romantic room, the other guests couldn’t help but envy them.
It turned out the production team was being tricky this time. For this round, the guests who chose the worst dinner were assigned the best accommodations.
Е̌ń u m̀á.īď
Meanwhile, Gao Zitai, who had finally fulfilled his dream of enjoying the seafood feast on In the Name of Love, once again found himself relegated to the straw hut with Song Zixuan.
The only consolation for him was that the Xingxu couple, despite being assigned the luxurious Garden Suite, had one more challenge to complete before checking in.
“The production team collected questions from viewers about what they’re most curious about regarding the couple before filming,” Song Yingming said, shaking a box in his hand toward Su Xingyao. “Here are 100 cards with questions from Xingxu fans.”
“Both guests, please draw one card each and answer the question.”

【Ahhh, I participated in this questionnaire! Wife, pick mine, pick mine!】
【Rolling! Praying! Wife, please pick my question!】

【I love this segment so much—props to the production team.】
Though a bit surprised by this segment, Su Xingyao still reached into Song Yingming’s box with some curiosity and drew a card.
Lu Jiuxu followed suit, pulling out another card.
After both had their cards, they glanced at each other, silently agreeing not to open them right away.
Wang Xiaoyi, unable to contain her excitement any longer, ran over to Su Xingyao with a grin, urging him to hurry up.
“Xingyao, quickly check what question you drew,” Wang Xiaoyi urged eagerly.

As soon as Su Xingyao flipped the card over, Wang Xiaoyi, craning her neck to see, immediately read out the content with excitement.
“Please display the nicknames you’ve saved for each other in your phones.”
Her eyes sparkled as she finished reading.
“Ahhh, I love this question so much!”
At the same time, the CP fans watching the livestream went wild.
【Ahhhhhhh!】
【This question hits me right in the feels!】
Еn̈ ům̄ a.і d̄
【Couples showing their phone nicknames for each other is my ultimate weakness!】
【I’m dying to know what nickname Wife gave Mr. Lu.】

【So curious +1.】
【Nicknames between couples are the sweetest sugar bombs ever.】
Hearing the task, Su Xingyao instinctively glanced at Lu Jiuxu and found him already looking back.
Their gazes met midair before Su Xingyao spoke up, “How about you go first?”
W еb́ nо v̈е l̈ Е́n̈ um ā
Although fans were desperate to know their nicknames, Su Xingyao already knew what Lu Jiuxu had saved him as. He’d seen it before when Lu Jiuxu sent him a screenshot after setting him as a starred contact.
After speaking, he casually leaned closer to glance at Lu Jiuxu’s phone screen.
However, upon clearly seeing the name on the screen, Su Xingyao’s face instantly flushed red.
The cameraman quickly panned to Lu Jiuxu’s phone, and the nickname displayed prominently in the pinned contact and starred friends list was:

【Wife Cat】
The other guests, seeing this unbelievably adorable nickname, burst into laughter.

【HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!】
【Lu Jiuxu, you’re unbelievable!】
【He’s absolutely smitten!】
【How dare you give such an adorable nickname to your wife! Are you not afraid for your life?!】
【Hahaha, but “Wife Cat” is so cute and sweet, and it really suits Su Xingyao perfectly!】
【Major kudos to Mr. Lu for this nickname!】

【From now on, my wife’s nickname is officially “Wife Cat” too, haha!】
Embarrassed by the laughter of the other guests, Su Xingyao quickly turned to Lu Jiuxu and asked, “But you didn’t have this nickname before!”
Lu Jiuxu raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly as he responded, “Should I change it now?”
With that, he actually opened the nickname settings and started typing.
The cameraman once again zoomed in on his phone screen.
The viewers then saw Lu Jiuxu, elegant and refined as always, calmly deleting the words “Kitty” from the nickname, leaving only “Wife.”

The next second, a slender, fair hand appeared on the screen, blocking it.
Su Xingyao quickly covered the screen, glaring at Lu Jiuxu and preventing him from saving the change.

The amusement in Lu Jiuxu’s eyes deepened. He gently took Su Xingyao’s hand, smiled faintly, and closed his phone.
【Lu Jiuxu, you’re too much!!!】
【Are you deliberately teasing your wife?】
【Look at how red his face is now!】
E ṅ u̇ m̄ä ..і̀ d̆
【I can’t! Leaving just “Wife” is such a bold move!】
【Where can I take lessons? I need to level up to Lu Jiuxu’s flirting skills!】
The other guests couldn’t stop laughing at the sweet interaction between Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu.
Finally, Jian Yunqiu recovered first and asked Su Xingyao, “Xingyao, what’s the nickname you’ve given Mr. Lu?”

When everyone saw Su Xingyao’s phone screen displaying “Lu Doggie (Limited Edition Liar)”, the sweetness was enough to cause a collective sugar rush.
【Oh my god, you two! One’s a kitty, the other’s a doggy—this is just too adorable!】
Е́n̊ ů m а
【Kitty and Doggy are the cutest CP ever!】
【Ahhhhh, their nicknames for each other are just so sweet and perfect!】
【My wife isn’t just adorable as a person, even the nickname is super cute!】
【Ahhhhh, I’m rolling around on my bed like a worm right now. Today’s sugar levels are off the charts, sisters!】
While most of the netizens were gushing over the “Kitty and Doggy” nicknames, seasoned CP enthusiast Wang Xiaoyi immediately noticed something intriguing.
She excitedly asked Su Xingyao with stars in her eyes, “Why did you add ‘Exclusive Liar Version’ at the end? Did he lie to you about something?”

Caught off guard by the question, Su Xingyao explained the reason.
“Well, there was one time he tricked me using red envelopes… so I updated the nickname.”
Wang Xiaoyi perked up instantly, sensing a good story. “Tricked you with red envelopes? Can you tell us what happened?”
Su Xingyao glanced at Lu Jiuxu, who was watching him with a gentle smile, and then recounted the event.
“It was during the company’s annual meeting. I didn’t draw any red envelopes, so when we got home, he asked me about it and even prepared a few specially for me to pick from.”
Pausing slightly as he recalled the memory, Su Xingyao’s tone softened, as if echoing the way Lu Jiuxu had spoken to him back then.
Еṅů m̄ a.. ĩḋ
“He told me that the red envelopes contained varying amounts, ranging from just a few yuan to two hundred. Then he said, ‘If you can draw the two-hundred-yuan envelope, you’ll have good luck for the entire year.’“
“And I drew it.”

After hearing the story, Gao Zitai cluelessly chimed in, “Isn’t that a good thing?”
Su Xingyao laughed and nodded. “It was great.”
“But later, I found out that all the envelopes he gave me contained only two hundred. There wasn’t any small change in them at all.”
Gao Zitai finally understood. “So no matter which envelope you picked, it was always going to be the lucky two hundred?”
Е̃ñ um á . i d̆.
Wang Xiaoyi clutched her chest dramatically.
【Ahhhh, this isn’t an ‘Exclusive Liar Version’, it’s clearly a way to shower us with sweetness!】
Jian Yunqiu also nodded, her gaze shifting between Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu.
“Mr. Lu, you’re just too romantic.”

Then she jokingly pretended to be upset and turned to Gu Baifeng. “You need to learn from Mr. Lu! Look at how good he is at this!”
The netizens, who initially thought they’d just enjoy a simple sugar rush from the couple’s nicknames, unexpectedly found themselves drowning in an overload of sweetness from Su Xingyao’s shared story.

【Help! How can Xingxu be this sweet?】
【Mr. Lu, you’re just so good at this, so good, so good!】
【So the red envelope was actually his way of wishing his wife endless good luck, right? Sob sob, why didn’t I think of such a romantic gesture?】
【Mr. Lu noticed his wife didn’t get a red envelope at the annual meeting, so he made up for it with one filled with blessings. Ahhhh, no wonder he has a wife!】
【Ahhhhhhh, Lu Jiuxu loves him so much that I’m out of words!!!】
【Lu Jiuxu, tell me, where can I buy your guide to romance?!】

【If Lu Jiuxu didn’t win his wife over, it would be the greatest injustice of all time.】
After Su Xingyao and Lu Jiuxu each displayed their nicknames, the first viewer-submitted question was successfully answered.
Next, Lu Jiuxu picked up the card in front of him. Its content was much simpler than the first question:
“What is your wish?”
Viewers, seeing the question, commented on how lenient the person who submitted it was:
【I waited so long, and it’s such a boring question?】
【I thought we’d get more juicy gossip!】
Е̌ n̈u m̌ а̃
【It’s fine. I’ve already had my fill of sweetness tonight. Let’s keep it simple so the couple can smoothly go home and sleep.】
【Hehe, going home to sleep sounds great too.】

【I highly suspect the person above is being suggestive.】
Not just the viewers, but even the other guests thought the question was too simple and easy to answer. The lively atmosphere quieted down as everyone waited for the couple’s responses.
Su Xingyao hadn’t given much thought to wishes before, so when asked, he started contemplating seriously. Just as he was about to respond, saying he wished for him and Lu Jiuxu to always stay safe and never be apart, a deep voice interrupted from above him:
“I wish to live one day longer than Su Xingyao.”
Ẃе̇ b.n̆o v̌ еl̄ Ё nu_m а
Everyone turned to Lu Jiuxu in shock, clearly not expecting such a response.
Faced with their puzzled expressions, Lu Jiuxu remained calm and quietly added, “If I were to leave first, he would be heartbroken.”
And that was something he couldn’t bear.
“So I’ll take on that pain alone.”

The previously noisy filming set fell into a natural and profound silence at that moment.
Everyone present—guests and crew alike—was deeply moved by Lu Jiuxu’s words, many unable to hold back their tears.

As for Su Xingyao, his hands couldn’t stop trembling.
Others may have been touched purely by the depth of Lu Jiuxu’s emotions, but he knew better than anyone else.
Lu Jiuxu had already endured that kind of pain before.
Images from his dreams flashed through Su Xingyao’s mind: the memory of the man in the previous life, drenched in rain, leaning against his tombstone in despair.
That lonely, broken figure caressed his photograph again and again, asking over and over, “Su Xingyao, you haven’t said ‘long time no see’ to me yet.”
Obviously…

This heartbreak and suffering—Lu Jiuxu had already lived through it.
Yet in this life, he was still willing to bear it all alone.
Summoning every ounce of strength, Su Xingyao held back the flood of tears threatening to fall.
He lowered his head and clasped Lu Jiuxu’s hand tightly, holding on as if his life depended on it.

With the two questions over, the day’s recording officially came to an end.

The other guests gradually dispersed, heading to their respective suites.
After being followed by the production crew for the entire day, and now finding themselves finally alone, Su Xingyao no longer tried to hide anything.

He held onto Lu Jiuxu’s hand without letting go.
In silence, the two of them made their way to the garden suite.
The faint fragrance of roses lingered in the air.
As they reached the door, Su Xingyao stopped and raised his eyes to deeply gaze at the man in front of him.

Lu Jiuxu returned the look.
Their gazes met in the stillness, intertwining midair, filled with restrained yet profound love for one another.
Lu Jiuxu no longer masked himself with a facade of refined gentleness.
He firmly pressed Su Xingyao’s waist, lowering his head to kiss him.

“For what I didn’t respond to earlier.”
The man’s voice was husky, carrying an irresistible allure in the quiet surroundings.

He showered Su Xingyao’s soft pink lips with fervent, deep kisses, both dominant and full of emotion.
Held tightly in his embrace, Su Xingyao wrapped his arms around the man’s neck, doing his best to reciprocate the overwhelming passion.
Their lips pressed together, tongues intertwining.
Even the floral fragrance in the air seemed to take on an intoxicating ambiguity under the heat of their exchange.
The young couple kissed as though they were each other’s lifeline, unable to let go.
Meanwhile, Song Yingming, sitting at his computer and about to shut down the equipment, nearly choked on his water.
