He had no experience in comforting people, and since he didn't have a phone to ask others, he was at a loss for what to do.
With his dark pupils fixed on Ling Shuangjiang, Xie Wang suddenly leaned closer and hugged her in his arms.
The sudden embrace caught Ling Shuangjiang off guard. He leaned against Xie Wang's chest, listening to the other's heartbeat, which was very fast.
His earlobes were slightly red due to the fever.
"I can only feel at ease when you are healthy."
These words seemed to have flipped a switch in Ling Shuangjiang's heart. Pressing against Xie Wang's chest, he stretched out his arms, slowly wrapped them around the other's waist, closed his eyes, and groaned softly, "Mmm."
[Was Shuangjiang just being coquettish?]
[Ahhh, so cute! I want to hug it too.]
[Mr. Xie is so clever! The frost-covered rice must be very soft.]
Feeling the warmth around his waist, Xie Wang felt a strange stirring within him. The soft touch, the slender wrist—it was all something he had never experienced before.
Ling Shuangjiang was the first person to interact with him so intimately. Yu Xi
The meal lasted half an hour, and then the two prepared to go downstairs.
Xie Wang originally wanted Ling Shuangjiang to rest for half a day, but after taking her medicine and having breakfast, Ling Shuangjiang felt better and thought it would be fine to continue recording.
Today, we are about to head to a new location – the island of Ireland.
This island is the private resort that Qi Yu mentioned that a certain tycoon bought. It is located next to this island and can be reached by cruise ship in 10 minutes.
When everyone gathered downstairs, Ling Shuangjiang stood out.
Because he was wearing a white rabbit hat, which Xie Wang had taken out of his suitcase and insisted that he wear.
This hat has built-in scarves on both sides, making it suitable for autumn and winter wear. Ling Shuangjiang is wearing it because she forgot it in the lining of her suitcase last winter.
The temperature dropped sharply today, to 19 degrees Celsius.
So Ling Shuangjiang found it quite comfortable to wear.
His two rabbit ears swayed in the wind, and Xie Wang held his right hand tightly, so much so that the two of them frequently attracted the attention of other guests and staff.
Huang Shan asked Wen Ai in a low voice, "Are they together?"
Wen Ai clicked her tongue and shook her head: "It's hard to say."
Ling Shuangjiang's palm was gripped tightly; it was very hot.
It seems Xie Wang really hasn't forgotten what he said last night.
Pretending to be gay.
A moment later, the planned yacht did not arrive; instead, two four-story cruise ships slowly sailed in.
Chyi Yu joked, "There must be a lot of new sponsors recently. The production team is getting richer and richer. They chartered two luxury cruise ships in one go."
The bewildered director asked, "We rented a yacht, not a cruise ship."
At that moment, Xie Wang's voice came: "I arranged it."
All eyes turned to him, and the director, suppressing a laugh, asked, "Why the sudden decision to arrange a luxury cruise?"
Xie Wang, holding Ling Shuangjiang's hand, said, "Shuangjiang has a cold and shouldn't be exposed to the sea breeze."
[Wow, is this the power of money?]
[How thoughtful! This domineering CEO is so appealing!!]
[Is this love? Isn't it?]
Facing the envious gazes of the crowd, Ling Shuangjiang remained calm and showed no shyness. She simply smiled faintly and looked at everyone with composure.
For some reason, he felt that Xie Wang's behavior was not a show or an act, but rather a genuine expression of his feelings.
As for why they thought that, there is no way of knowing.
The guests boarded the cruise ship one after another. When it was Xie Wang and Ling Shuangjiang's turn, Ling Shuangjiang did not move immediately, but observed Xie Wang's reaction.
Xie Wang turned his head as expected: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Ling Shuangjiang hid her smile, her fingers unconsciously squeezing Xie Wang's palm, conveying her warmth.
His voice was soft as he lifted his eyes: "I have no strength, I can't walk."
Chapter 14 Gay and Gay
Upon hearing this, Xie Wang looked worried and asked Ling Shuangjiang if she needed to go back and rest for half a day before continuing the recording.
Ling Shuangjiang gently shook her head at him: "No need, I just need to rest for a while."
Seeing that the other guests had already boarded the ship and were waiting for the two of them, Xie Wang gently placed his arm on Ling Shuangjiang's shoulder. "It's alright, I'll take care of it."
As he spoke, he gestured to the staff on the splint: "If you can't walk after the Frost's Descent, prepare a stretcher."
Upon hearing this, Ling Shuangjiang's pupils widened slightly. Before she could utter a word of refusal, several staff members carrying a stretcher rushed towards her.
Xie Wang put his arm around his waist, picked him up, and placed him on the stretcher. He gently patted his head and said, "Lie down. It's a long journey, and we'll have to walk a bit after we get off the ship."
At this moment, Ling Shuangjiang was dazed, and with Xie Wang's encouragement, she lay obediently on the stretcher with a complicated expression.
Xie Wang gently comforted him, "Lying down will be very comfortable."
Ling Shuangjiang looked into Xie Wangzhen's sincere eyes, sighed softly, covered her head with her coat, and said nothing more.
You have to bear the consequences of the person you chose to pursue.
“Let’s go,” Xie Wang said.
The guests stared in astonishment at Ling Shuangjiang lying on the stretcher, thinking she had suffered some serious injury that had rendered her unable to move.
Shen Ke and several guests ran towards the stretcher, anxiously asking, "What happened to Shuangjiang?"
Xie Wang's expression hardened.
As expected, Shen Ke still harbored designs on Ling Shuangjiang.
He said in a low voice, "Shuangjiang is a little weak and needs to rest."
Shen Ke frowned and stopped talking.
Upon entering the first-floor cabin, Ling Shuangjiang was settled on a spacious and soft sofa bed, while the other guests dispersed to engage in various entertainment activities.
This luxury cruise ship has all kinds of entertainment facilities, like a small club on the move.
Having already made the promise of weakness, Ling Shuangjiang could only rest and recuperate on the spot. Xie Wang also stayed by Ling Shuangjiang's side, quietly staying there and not going anywhere.
Fearing Xie Wang might be bored, Ling Shuangjiang suggested, "Why don't you go chat with someone or get something to eat? It's so boring sitting here."
Xie Wang shook his head: "How can I feel at ease letting you go out and have fun with others when you're not feeling well?"
Ling Shuangjiang was speechless, her beautiful eyes flickered, and she gently lay down: "Okay, then you'll stay with me."
[Tsk tsk tsk, this guy can really string together sweet nothings.]
[The two are becoming increasingly gay.]
Brotherhood, brotherhood.
[If these two are straight men, then there are no gay men in the world.]
We soon arrived at the island of Ireland and headed west to the meeting point for filming.
It was only after the director's introduction that everyone realized the private island belonged to Xie Wang and was provided as a favor for the program.
Wen Nuan looked at Ling Shuangjiang with envy, and sighed inwardly.
Lying on the stretcher was really awkward. Before long, Ling Shuangjiang used the excuse that she had recovered and could walk.
Today's itinerary is about to begin. The rules are still simple: everyone writes the name of their favorite guest on a card. After the cards are revealed, only the guests who chose each other can go on a date. The remaining guests will have to work on the farm behind the building.
In this process, each guest needs to sit in a separate hidden compartment to operate, and the results are revealed in order, starting with the first guest.
If a guest's chosen person also happens to choose him, then the chosen guest can walk out of the hidden compartment directly; otherwise, he/she continues to wait.
The first person to appear was Chyi Yu, who chose Wen Ai. Surprisingly, when he called out Wen Ai's name, Wen Ai did not come out.
This couple has been very sweet since the show started airing, and this move has left all netizens puzzled.
Upon seeing this, Qi Yu's eyes gradually darkened, and she smiled gently: "Looks like it's time to get to work."
[Oh no, my favorite couple got a bad ending?]
[No way, no way, who is Wen Ai writing about?]
[Emm, please don't attack me, fans of Wen Nuan. Is it possible that Qi Yu has already shed her "big shot" image?]
The second person to perform was Cheng Jia.
He chose Xie Wang.
When he called out Xie Wang's name, the dark compartment remained silent.
[Hilarious! There's no way the fourth male lead would choose Cheng Jia.]
[I think anyone who's watched even a little bit of variety shows knows who the fourth male lead likes, right?]
[Not necessarily, didn't Wen Ai and Qi Yu get separated?]
The third person to appear was Chen Ying, who gently revealed the name of her chosen guest—Xie Wang.
This time, the off-site guests engaged in a lively discussion.
Lin Xueer said, "I feel that the popularity of the fourth male lead has soared."
Lu Shaoheng chuckled softly: "Yes, indeed."
Jia Yuean: "The fourth male lead was already good enough, and with the added aura of a big shot, he became even more charming."
Lin Xueer: "I really like Shuangjiang, but it seems that apart from the fourth male lead and Shen Ke, no one else has ever chosen him."
Jia Yuean joked, "With the fourth male lead watching over us, no one should dare to choose Shuangjiang."
Lu Shaoheng smiled faintly: "I also really like Frost's Descent."
After Chen Ying made her choice, the hidden compartment remained untouched, which was expected. When it was Bai Xinyu's turn to choose, Qiao Yi also didn't come out, and yet another established couple was broken up.
