Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius

Chapter 425 400: Ji Xizhi Has Mastered This Dating Show


[Do you even need the light? If I were the second female contestant, I’d smash the light right now!]

[Contestant 4 disguised so well in the previous episodes. Not to mention the second female contestant, even I felt moved. If Ji Xizhi hadn’t come, I might have shipped them to a real wedding. Now… I want to ship Ji Xizhi!]

[I’m starting to guess now, could the second female contestant and the second male contestant really… you know, can we ship them?]

[I watched it a second time, and it feels like there’s a bit of an avoidance between the second female contestant and the second male contestant? In this chaotic love reality show, when the CP (couple) leads aren’t confirmed yet, they usually mix and mingle, and there’s communication. But it’s very subtle, the second female and male contestants didn’t communicate at all. I’m curious now~]

[Damn it, could they have known each other before? Damn, why can’t all the guests watch together during the ‘True Love Test’ questioning? Otherwise, I could decode the second male contestant’s expression right now, @Director Zhou hurry up~]

After the host finished the process, the 24CP unexpectedly crumbled.

The 4th male contestant, seeing that the second female contestant no longer chose him, made a sarcastic comment during his speech.

“At this age, who doesn’t have an ex? Don’t you have three exes? What’s the difference from being married! Ha~ I don’t mind, so why should you!”

The true face of the 4th male contestant was revealed, making the love mentors in the meeting room clench their fists.

Su Mengtian immediately went from fan to hater: “What kind of trash is this, I’m so pissed off!”

Xia Xiao: “Damn!”

Qiu Lin: “Exes my ass!”

Sun Jian couldn’t be bothered to scold the 4th male contestant; he was busy looking towards the post-production team, “Post-production team, you have your work cut out, make sure to cut this part, we are all civilized people~”

[Why cut it! Scold him fiercely for me!!!]

[Ridiculous, is there no difference between an ex and a divorcee? Don’t be too funny, my eyes must have been blind to think number 4 was good!]

[I didn’t expect to see such a piece of work on a dating show, @Director Zhou, if you can’t get Ji Xizhi as a mentor next time, have Teacher Ji screen the contestants, got it?]

[Let Ji Xizhi screen the contestants… and I think it’s doable, and it’s the best solution!!!]

The fans in the live stream room were also infuriated by the 4th male contestant’s remarks.

Meanwhile, Ji Xizhi gave the 4th male contestant a lukewarm glance, retorting, “If you want her not to mind, you can go serve two years in prison first!”

With one line, she made the other outraged mentors in the meeting room burst into laughter.

Qiu Lin: “Your words are still the best!”

Xia Xiao: “I agree, I think Teacher Ji’s suggestion is feasible!”

Su Mengtian rolled her eyes, “Two years is too lenient for him!”

The breakdown of the 24CP was so complete that it wiped out the biggest shipping point of “Bumping Love,” which could be considered a major mishap.

Director Zhou was originally considering whether to urgently cut off the live broadcast, but he didn’t expect to see both the live room and trending searches explode with traffic.

Nowadays, dating reality shows are not inherently hot shows with massive traffic. “Bumping Love” is already filming its third season, which could almost be considered reheating the leftovers.

But because of Ji Xizhi’s maneuver, the heat went completely viral.

Going viral with black publicity is still going viral!

24CP may have crumbled, but the obscure 22CP has surprisingly started gaining traction.

Replay views soared.

Director Zhou gritted his teeth and instructed the host in his earpiece to continue.

Besides the 24CP, the Sea King’s CP also attracted attention, and in the end, the 3rd male and female contestants successfully chose each other.

But in the questioning session, after several love mentors took turns asking questions, the 3rd female contestant unexpectedly decided not to activate the light, breaking the 33CP too.

The remaining contestants didn’t successfully choose each other, resulting in a complete failure of the initial CP selections.

The production team had never encountered such a situation before and could only urgently arrange for the mentors to question those unchosen contestants.

Although none of the single-choice contestants had been chosen by each other, the production team still gave them a chance to express their feelings.

The next episode is the final confession period, anything is possible, and anything is an opportunity.

The 1st male contestant actively expressed his desire for the 2nd female contestant, hoping to marry her soon.

But later, a question from Ji Xizhi revealed that the 1st male contestant was interested in the 2nd female contestant’s family background.

When it was the 2nd male contestant’s turn, he also chose the 2nd female contestant.

The love mentors in the meeting room were now extremely curious about Ji Xizhi’s shipped CP, all eagerly asking the 2nd male contestant questions.

However, the questions were all quite similar.

“Do you like the 2nd female contestant?” “Why didn’t you confess?” things like that.

When it was Ji Xizhi’s turn to ask a question, she didn’t start with a question but instead made a conclusion first.

“The second female contestant didn’t choose the 4th male contestant.”

As she said this, the 2nd male contestant suddenly looked up, and everyone could see the light in his eyes.

Ji Xizhi then began to ask her question.

“You’ve liked her for a long time, right?”

The 2nd male contestant looked at Ji Xizhi and replied, “Yes.”

“Since high school until now, I’ve never stopped liking her.”

“High school???” Su Mengtian, having just mourned a CP, suddenly caught a whiff of a new CP and couldn’t care less that it was Ji Xizhi’s question. She grabbed the mic, “You knew each other so early, childhood sweethearts? Then why wasn’t it obvious on the show, why didn’t you confess?”

The 2nd male contestant, “Because I did something that made her angry, she said she would never talk to me again in this life, couldn’t confess.”

Su Mengtian impatiently asked, “What did you do?”

The 2nd male contestant’s smile paused for a moment, politely declining, “Can I not say?”

Su Mengtian’s curiosity was killing her, but in the end, she held back and graciously said, “You don’t have to say.”

The 2nd male contestant smiled again, “Thank you, Teacher Su.”

The questioning session ended.

This episode of the love reality show basically ended here.

Just as the live broadcast was about to end, Director Zhou had an epiphany and suddenly connected with the villa staff.

At the end of the seventh episode of “Bumping Love,” they played the 2nd male contestant’s interview segment from the “True Love Test” in advance for the 2nd female contestant.

The live broadcast finally froze on the 2nd female contestant’s stunned expression and abruptly ended.

Then the screen displayed a sentence.

“Is it childhood sweethearts or love-hate relationship, what really happened with the 22CP who haven’t seen each other for a long time? Stay tuned for the next episode, the final confession season! Will the one who makes your heart flutter confess?”

A sentence that piqued everyone’s curiosity.

[Cliffhanger, Director Zhou, are you even human? Is there anything my esteemed SVIP can’t watch? Give me more updates!]

[Childhood sweethearts, I am totally hooked on this, I’m immediately shipping 22CP now, even though there’s nothing yet, it’s still so sweet, hook me up whether it succeeds or not ~]

[What’s with the 2nd female contestant’s expression? I’m boldly guessing, could they have dated before? An ex getting back together? So exciting ahhh~ Play the next episode immediately! I want to see all the details of 22CP’s acquaintance!]

[@Ji Xizhi, Teacher Ji, please, I want details! What else do you know, give us some sweet tidbits to ship!]

While the audience in the live broadcast room was frantically discussing, the entire live session heartlessly shut down on the spot.

The audience, having lost their online discussion venue, could only move to Weibo. There was no need for Director Zhou to buy trending topics; several already surged up.

The most forward one was: #Breaking and Forming CPs, This Love Reality Show Is in Ji Xizhi’s Element#
