Cheng Qing's expression was calm, with a slight smile, and she asked with a look of sympathy for her fans, "Do you think I'm still poor now?"
The implication is, do you think I still need to be here?
Fans: "..." Tsk.
Unable to entice Cheng Qing to continue the task, everyone could only chat.
Princess, how are you feeling?
Losi choked: "It's...it's like kissing! What kind of feeling can you get from two pieces of flesh touching two pieces of flesh?"
Why are you nervous?
Losi exploded: "You're the one who's nervous! Your whole family is nervous."
Oh, yes, yes, my whole family is nervous.
Losi: "..." So annoyed.
[Teacher Cheng, did you feel an electric shock?]
Cheng Qing laughed: "Do you think we're electrical wires?"
【……】hateful.
Teacher Cheng, would you like to do it again?
Cheng Qing: "Do you think we're short of money right now?"
[…] Tsk.
A fan advised: "What can you buy for a child with 1000 yuan?"
Cheng Qing: "It's alright, it's a small gift but a big sentiment."
Cheng Qing handled the situation with ease, but her fans were dissatisfied: "Why are you always criticizing us?"
Cheng Qing chuckled and said calmly, "Who gave you permission to bully the princess?"
[...]
The comment section paused for a moment, then erupted in screams again.
[Aaaaaaah, I'm shipping them again! I'm shipping them again!!!]
【Get married right now, immediately, right now!!!】
[Aww, I love it most when your wife is spoiled like that.]
Why don't you make us think things through?!
【I am the Civil Affairs Bureau, and I'm here.】
Luo Xi was also taken aback by Cheng Qing's sudden bold words, then looked at Cheng Qing happily and said, "At least you have some conscience."
Cheng Qing: "..." They've already kissed, shouldn't they at least show some appreciation?
Cheng Qing performed very well, satisfying not only the princess and the fans, but also the director.
The exceptionally high viewership and engagement rates demonstrate Cheng Qing's value.
Unable to hear anything blush-inducing from the two main characters, everyone could only settle for the less flattering question: "Teacher Cheng, how about we feed each other?"
Cheng Qing: "I just ate."
Sleeping is definitely out of the question...
Cheng Qing chuckled, "You have self-awareness."
Losi: "..."
[...]
[Could you seriously consider appearing on a variety show together again?]
Yes! Teacher Cheng, I can't bear to see you leave the entertainment industry like this.
Cheng Qing reassured her, "I never came in, so how could there be any talk of me leaving?"
【But we saw you! We watched you interact with the princess, watched you participate in all sorts of games, and watched you and the princess progress step by step over the past two months.】
Yes! Teacher Cheng, are you really willing to abandon us like this?
Cheng Qing hesitated for a moment, but finally said coldly, "I'm willing to give it up."
[...]
I never expected you to be like this, Teacher Cheng!!!
Princess, abandon her!!!
Yes, Princess, she is too cold and heartless.
Upon seeing this, Luo Xi deeply resonated with the sentiment: "I also think that Teacher Cheng is very cold and heartless."
Cheng Qing paused after being told off, looking at Luo Xi with a somewhat aggrieved expression. In the end, she could only lower her voice slightly and ask softly, "So, what variety show will you participate in next?"
Losi squinted at her: "What do you mean? Why would you join me in anything I participate in?"
Cheng Qing smiled gently: "As long as you're willing..."
Ahhhhh, I'm totally shipping them!
[What an amazing line!]
[Teacher Cheng is becoming more and more tolerant!!!]
[Waaaaah, for you, I'm willing to do anything, even things I don't like!]
That's truly amazing!
Luo Xi hadn't expected Cheng Qing to be so straightforward, and for a moment she didn't know how to reply. After thinking for a moment, she was still very happy, so she replied, "You said it, it's too late to regret it now."
Cheng Qing: "..."
***
Upon seeing this, Kong Mingyan silently turned to look at his assistant beside him: "Shall we invite Luo Xi again next time?"
The assistant retorted with a laugh, "After today's incident, there will be even more shows wanting to date Losi now—it's like buy one, get two free! And our popularity is the best example of success. Do you think we can compete with others?"
Kong Mingyan: "..."
With such a high level of attention right in front of them, which production team would be foolish enough not to want it?
The best partners even changed the program's flow to accommodate the pairing of Luo Xi and Cheng Qing.
This shows how beneficial a good on-screen couple can be to a show.
However, it is precisely because so many people try to create on-screen couples that very few succeed. That is why it is so rare and precious.
For example, in last year's idol dramas, the male lead was tragically handsome, and the female lead was stunningly beautiful.
But these two just don't click. When they stand together, people would rather believe they're siblings than think there's anything romantic between them.
The production team was practically forcing the CP fans to ship them!
Every three days there's a news story, every five days a breaking news story. They've hired one editing master after another to create videos that are so ambiguous they make people blush and their hearts race.
Well, he doesn't have any fans who ship him.
Sometimes, a couple's relationship is all about the atmosphere; if it clicks, it's a perfect match.
The way "Aces Go Places" promotes its on-screen couples is not stupid, and neither are the other actors.
Kong Mingyan thought resentfully: Wasn't this CP something I built up step by step? Tsk!
***
After receiving Cheng Qing's assurance, Luo Xi suddenly felt much more at ease.
The fact that they're going to participate in a variety show together shows that their relationship isn't over just because of this program; they have a future together.
Thinking this, Losi lowered her head and smiled gently, her smile like the pale wildflowers by the roadside in spring.
It gives people a sense of comfort, as if they are in a bright and sunny spring.
Seeing her like this, Cheng Qing didn't say anything more.
I'll participate... I'll participate then!
However, she paused for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Does this count as completing task 5? Is there a reward?"
Losi: "..."
Kong Mingyan: "..." Reward my ass! Do you expect me to pay for everything you do on other people's film sets in the future?
[A reward is a must for the teacher!!!]
Looking back now, task 5 was actually the biggest perk!
[I regret not giving the task 5 likes! Director Kong, you have to reward me!]
How can we not reward our teachers? They've made such a great sacrifice.
[This production crew can't be that stingy, can they? If not, we'll crowdfund a reward for the teacher.]
Kong Mingyan: "..." What a joke! If the production team crowdfunded rewards for the guests, it would be trending on social media in no time!
So, Kong Mingyan was forced to say, "A reward is fine too, let's buy you a cake!" as a wrap-up gift.
Cheng Qing and Luo Xi exchanged a glance, smiled, and said, "Okay, we'll have it this afternoon!"
Kong Mingyan choked: "..." A miscalculation.
[Hahaha, the promise of forever is right, it's due this afternoon.]
We will help monitor it.
[The production team probably didn't mispronounce something, right?]
I don't think a production team of that size would do that.
In short, the fans were quite cooperative with Luo Xi and Cheng Qing at this time.
The film crew was moved to a high place, and in the end, they could only call a cake shop and order a cake to pick up at noon. Because the order was placed rather suddenly, they bought a ready-made cake.
Cheng Qing and Luo Xi exchanged a smile. After turning off the live stream at 1 a.m., they took the crew's van to a large shopping mall in Green Forest City to go shopping.
