Do you want to buy Master Qi from me?

"Do you want to buy Master Qi from me?"

Song Jianyi exclaimed in surprise.

Instantly, the directors found their lost filming target and hurriedly ran over.

"Ms. Nian, what are you doing here?"

"Ms. Guan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I..."

Guan Yutong hadn't expected to be discovered even in such a hidden place. She hurriedly blinked away the tears in her eyes and walked out uneasily.

When her gaze met Song Jianyi's eyes, she pursed her lips and lowered her head.

"What are you afraid of? Boldly go after what you want!" Nian Yiran encouraged her as they walked.

Disdain was written in Song Jianyi's eyes as she looked at her.

[What does that mean? What does Yutong want? Mama will give it to you!]

[Did Yutong just have a secret conversation with Nian Yiran?]

[Why do I feel like I heard someone talking about buying Master Qi?]

[That can't be true, right? Who would have the audacity to sell Master Qi like merchandise?]

But Song Jianyi, in front of the camera, looked at Guan Yutong with anticipation and asked, "Are you really going to give me a hundred thousand or eighty thousand?"

Guan Yutong choked.

It was clearly against the program's rules to privately exchange partners after they were assigned. Nian Yiran's encouragement for her to pay for tomorrow's date with Master Qi was a violation. Although she secretly hoped for it, she could only act behind the scenes. But now, Song Jianyi had brought it up openly. Was she doing it on purpose or was she just clueless?

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Director Yan and Master Qi walking over.

Upon hearing that someone was trying to buy and sell Master Qi's date, Director Yan's face darkened.

"Who came up with this lousy idea? Song Jianyi, is this another one of your schemes?"

"It wasn't me!"

Song Jianyi blinked innocently, her eyes showing regret as she looked at Qi Yu.

"I just heard it a moment ago. You guys showed up before I could even get the money!"

[Haha! So she really expects Guan Yutong to buy Master Qi?]

[Song Yuanbao! You have some nerve!!]

[No, no, no! I think she did it on purpose! Didn't you notice? Nian Yiran's face turned green.]

Nian Yiran's face wasn't just green, it was constantly changing, like a color palette. She never expected that the scheme she had just come up with was recognized by Song Jianyi at a glance!

Director Yan was left speechless by Song Jianyi's regretful expression. He turned his head and asked Guan Yutong, "What's going on?"

Guan Yutong replied, "Well..."

"Nian Yiran told me about it, Director Yan. It was Song Jianyi who asked me!"

[What? Song Jianyi is shameless enough to do this?]

[She dares to profit from selling Master Qi? Isn't she afraid of being drowned in saliva by the fans?]

[Fans, calm down! Do you really believe Nian's words?]

[Just kidding!]

Indeed, with the previous incident as a warning, Nian Yiran's words had lost credibility in the eyes of everyone.

Director Yan completely ignored Nian Yiran's instigation and directly focused his questioning gaze on Guan Yutong.

Guan Yutong fidgeted with her hands and discreetly glanced at Qi Yu.

Qi Yu exuded a cold aura, and his gaze upon her carried an intimidating pressure.

She felt wronged, tears welling up in her eyes.

"It was Yiran's idea, but I didn't agree."

[I knew Nian was a troublemaker!]

[She has ill intentions towards Song Yuanbao, so she used our Yutong as a shield!]

[What a scheming woman! If Song Jianyi hadn't exposed them just now, would they have already played their game?]

[If Song Jianyi sells Master Qi's date and she will get cursed by the fans, and Guan Yutong violates Master Qi's taboo, she'll also be put on the blacklist!]

[Two of the four female guests eliminated at once! Such a cunning woman, she has a wicked mind!]

[Blacklist her!]

[Get out of the show!]

The barrage was filled with righteous indignation, with everyone despising Nian Yiran.

Unaware of the situation, Nian Yiran was still in shock from being betrayed by Guan Yutong in front of her.

Her eyes widened, and she looked at Guan Yutong in disbelief, like a victim.

"I was helping you because I felt sorry for you! And you sold me out as soon as you turned around?"

"Guan Yutong, you shameless scheming woman!"

Nian Yiran raised her hand, ready to slap Guan Yutong's face.

Suddenly, Song Jianyi tightened her grip on Nian Yiran's hand and forcefully threw her to the ground.

"Song Jianyi! How dare you lay a hand on me?"

"Nian Yiran, calm down!"

Without giving Nian Yiran a chance to counterattack, Director Yan and the crew had already rushed over and dragged her away by her arm.

Song Jianyi hesitated for a moment and looked at Qi Yu, who had come forward.

The tall and imposing man stood in front of her like an impenetrable wall, silently forming a protective shield.

However...

"Master Qi, thank you! If it weren't for you, Yiran would have hit me."

Guan Yutong took a step forward, her misty eyes filled with gratitude.

Song Jianyi:

"..." So, he blocked her to protect Guan Yutong?

Sigh!

She patted her slightly chaotic heartbeat and smiled, "You two talk, I'll go out for a moment."

"Where are you going?" Qi Yu asked.

"... Just had too much to eat, going for a walk!"

Clutching the autographed photo in her pocket, Song Jianyi's smile grew wider.

Little did she know, Qi Yu said, "Let's go together."

"What?"

"I've also eaten too much."

...

Song Jianyi discreetly glanced at the man by her side.

He's the number one Asian male god in popularity rankings, and now he's out for a walk with her?

[Why do I feel like Song Jianyi isn't willing?]

[How can you say she's just not willing? Haven't you noticed? She keeps her hand clenched in her pocket, her eyes drifting around, and it's written all over her guilty conscience!]

[What's she guilty of?]

[Could it be that she's in the process of selling Master Qi?]

[Does she dare?!]

[Did you do it on purpose?]

[Huh?]

A cold voice suddenly interrupted the thoughts swirling in Song Jianyi's mind.

She looked over with her hazy beautiful eyes and saw a man in a black silk shirt, his hands casually tucked in his pockets, strolling as if he had stepped out of a comic as a noble prince.

He smiled and asked her, "I can earn a hundred or two hundred thousand by selling myself for a day, so why not?"

"I didn't say no!"

"..."

"It would be a fool not to seize the opportunity to make money!"

Song Jianyi kicked a small pebble at her feet and, under Qi Yu's slightly twitching gaze, spoke honestly, "I just can't stand Nian Yiran! Besides, she won't really let me make money."

"How do you know?"

"Nian Yiran came to the show because of you! She and Guan Yutong are competitors, so why would she help her? In fact, she just wants to kill two birds with one stone!"

"You see through things quite well!"

"But I acted too hastily!"

Song Jianyi covered her heart with her hand, looked at Qi Yu with a pained expression, and said, "Are you sincerely looking for a partner?"
