"This is a real treasure chest! 4000 yuan!" Qiu Xinxue, who had been silent until now, couldn't help but exclaim, "Tong Shao, you're amazing! Your luck is incredible! It's a real treasure chest!"
Hearing Qiu Xinxue's excited voice, Ji Meina's shoulders drooped.
The key belonged to Tong Nianze, and Tong Nianze had found the treasure chest first. It truly had nothing to do with her anymore.
Tong Nianze glanced at the slightly disappointed Ji Meina and handed the treasure chest directly to her. "Here, your luck isn't too bad..."
Seeing Tong Nianze's action, Ji Meina was stunned. "For? For me? Didn't you open it?"
"You discovered the treasure chest first. I just helped you open the cabinet," Tong Nianze said, touching his nose self-consciously. "I was just teasing you before, I didn't really want to snatch your treasure chest..."
"!" Upon witnessing this, Qiu Xinxue's eyes widened, and her face immediately turned grim.
What was going on! That was their team's treasure chest! 4000 yuan!
This should have been hers!
Why did Tong Nianze give it to Ji Meina without even asking her?
Although she had nothing to do with finding the box or opening the lock, she was on the same team as Tong Nianze! Did this person have any team awareness?
Lin Yirou, who had been quiet all along, noticed Qiu Xinxue's darkening expression and nudged Ji Jun beside her with her elbow.
Ji Jun followed Lin Yirou's gaze and immediately understood.
Qiu Xinxue was too focused on gains and losses; she wasn't worth befriending.
"Qingtian! Look quickly!" Ji Meina held the small box and looked at Xia Qingtian, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
"Mm!" Xia Qingtian's smile was incredibly bright.
This was the kind of interaction she wanted to see!
It seemed Tong Nianze was still salvageable!
It looked like the CP she was rooting for would soon become a reality. This was just too great!
A total of six treasure chests had been found, with the real treasure chest already located. The remaining five treasure chests were each found by a different team.
The last treasure chest was also unexpectedly found by Ji Jun in his mining room on the fifth day.
All six treasure chests were found, and the accumulated dating funds for each team were revealed with detailed figures.
Ji Meina x Lü Songtao: 7300 yuan.
Xia Qingtian x Ji Jun: 5300 yuan.
The extra 300 yuan for these two teams was the accumulated amount after the remaining 600 yuan dating fund from the previous "heartbeat date" was equally divided.
Lin Yirou x Ling Feng Han: 3000 yuan.
Qiu Xinxue x Tong Nianze: 3000 yuan.
After the program team announced the results, Qiu Xinxue's expression was particularly unpleasant.
If Tong Nianze hadn't acted on his own to be a hero, their team would have been the final winning team, with a dating fund of 7000 yuan.
The more Qiu Xinxue thought about it, the more displeased she became. However, with everyone present, she insincerely clapped and offered congratulations.
This time, the program team provided four dating locations, and each team had to send a representative to draw their dating location from a box.
"Can we have a group date?" Xia Qingtian, still thinking about the beach BBQ she wanted, asked.
[Please, this female guest, do not be fixated on group games. We are a serious dating reality show!] The program team's voice came through, full of self-preservation instinct.
"I didn't say group games..." Xia Qingtian pursed her lips, her expression a little innocent.
She had clearly said a group date...
The others chuckled behind their hands, seeing this. It seemed that in the program team's eyes, Xia Qingtian's unconventional behavior and various subtle operations were already set in stone.
The program team was really trying their best to guard against Xia Qingtian.
[Of course, our program also respects the guests' intentions and is committed to creating a positive dating environment and opportunities for the guests.] As soon as the program team finished speaking, Ji Meina and Lin Yirou both raised their hands simultaneously.
[Do these two female guests have any questions?]
"I want to date Qingtian!" Lin Yirou stated definitively.
"Me too, this is my personal intention!" Ji Meina said loudly.
[Program Team: ...]
Good heavens, this situation had occurred again.
At this moment, a stir also arose from the male guests.
"I request to enter the 'heartbeat secret talk room' with Xia Qingtian."
Tong Nianze placed a hand on Xia Qingtian's left shoulder.
Ji Jun, who spoke at the same time, placed his hand on Xia Qingtian's right shoulder.
Xia Qingtian, whose shoulders were suddenly held, sensed the displeasure of the two male guests from behind.
Facing the camera filming her directly, Xia Qingtian could only let out an awkward laugh to ease the atmosphere. "I am truly a woman of great sin..."
[This woman actually knows she's sinful? Good heavens, can this dating show even be aired now!]
[After all, she's the first woman to have a harem on a dating show!]
[Has this girl finally extended her wicked hands to the male guests?]
[Tong Shao! Why does your 'bitch-detection' skill fail when it comes to Xia Qingtian! Why, ah! I don't understand! This woman is a sea king! Run quickly!]
[What the heck, I never thought Lord Immortal Monarch would be in a situation of fighting over a woman, and not even with the Demon Lord... Has the CP I supported suddenly gone be?]
[No! Xia Qingtian, you are a woman of great sin, go bother the women, don't interfere with my CP!]
A wail arose from the live broadcast, and the on-site program team also convened an emergency meeting due to the sudden turn of events.
Sitting to the side, Qiu Xinxue clenched her fists by her sides, and Lü Songtao's expression wasn't much better.
This damned Xia Qingtian!
She had been stealing the spotlight for two weeks already, when would it end!
If she liked stealing the spotlight so much, then let her bask in it to her heart's content!
Lü Songtao let out a scoff. "Qingtian is really popular! With such charm, you must have dated quite a few people, right?"
"I'm single since birth," Xia Qingtian said with a dry laugh. "I'm only 19."
"You were busy with studies in middle and high school, and you can date in college too," Qiu Xinxue, knowing Lü Songtao's intention, chimed in. "Qingtian, you're so beautiful, you must be very popular at school, right?"
"Not at all. As soon as I started college, I signed with Gu's Entertainment. My attendance at school was barely enough to avoid failing. If it weren't for this dating show, I wouldn't have had much opportunity to interact with the opposite sex," Xia Qingtian blinked and smiled a little innocently. "However, I often 'ship' couples."
"For example, when I was following 'The Transcendent Immortal,' I really shipped Immortal Monarch x Demon Lord," Xia Qingtian said with a smile. "Coming here, I think Meina and Tong Shao's bickering couple is also very shippable."
Lin Yirou knew Xia Qingtian was her CP fan, and upon hearing this, she could only offer a shy smile.
Ji Meina, though finding it a bit absurd, didn't say anything given that Tong Nianze had given her the treasure chest earlier.
"Then what about me and Tao Ge?" Qiu Xinxue asked Xia Qingtian with a smile.
After all, the "heartbeat date" last week was between her and Lü Songtao. It was okay for Xia Qingtian to praise them, right?
"Uh..." Xia Qingtian hadn't really 'shipped' this pair and could only offer a dry laugh. "You both have good looks, it's quite nice."
Hearing Xia Qingtian's response, Qiu Xinxue felt offended, and her expression became even more unpleasant.
Lü Songtao was also somewhat displeased. He glanced at Xia Qingtian, his gaze gradually deepening.
At this moment, the program team finally reached a conclusion.
The two-person dates would remain unchanged, and the locations would still be a four-choice selection for each team. However, with mutual consent, each team would have the opportunity to exchange dating partners, with a maximum of one such exchange.
Of course, the premise was that each team must consist of a male and female pairing! Male and female pairing is the key point!
A rather displeased sound echoed from the scene: "Tch."
