Perhaps it was the distant voices that once again stirred up that burning sensation from before. It was only under the impetus of this atmosphere that she managed to utter those words to Yan Chi. However, as soon as she spoke, her heart skipped a beat, as if slowing down for a moment.
With it, a hint of blush quickly surfaced on her previously innocent face, now carrying a touch of coquettish charm. It seemed like a young fox spirit, just transformed into a human form, enticing her beloved for the first time.
The awkward and inexperienced seduction could not conceal the alluring charm that shouldn’t have appeared in such innocent and clear eyes. Yet, anyone gazing into those captivating eyes would willingly succumb to the enchantment of the fox spirit.
This fire was ignited by Gu Qingtong herself. Even without any overt flirtation, just with a single sentence, Yan Chi couldn’t escape the fatal allure of someone named “Tongtong.”
The moment she heard those words, Yan Chi’s eyes became filled with a sense of confusion and depth. However, in the next instant, she forcefully suppressed those emotions.
Yet, due to this restraint, the chill on her body suddenly intensified. Sensing the change in Yan Chi’s aura, Gu Qingtong lifted her head in puzzlement, and a hint of grievance flashed in her eyes.
Why, why are you ignoring Tongtong?
It’s the first time saying something so embarrassing….the desire to be possessed has emerged, but there’s not even a bit of response.
At this moment, Yan Chi’s slender hand closed around Gu Qingtong’s arm.
She looked at the lingering charm and mixed confusion in Gu Qingtong’s eyes. The two gazes directly met, and Yan Chi’s suppressed desire was practically evident.
“Look,” she whispered softly, exerting a slight pressure in the palm of her hand, prompting Gu Qingtong to turn around.
Once Gu Qingtong had her back turned, Yan Chi leaned down slightly, lingering around her ear. The two of them looked in the same direction.
Gu Qingtong understood why Yan Chi’s reaction was so unusually cold.
It was because, from Yan Chi’s current line of sight, she could see a camera fixed on a branch right in front of them. It almost blended seamlessly with the brown branches, making it even less noticeable in the dim surroundings.
In other words… the appearance of her just now, pleading for intimacy, had all been captured by the camera?!
This discovery was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Gu Qingtong completely frozen in place.
She already had thin skin, and she only acted so boldly due to impulse in front of Yan Chi. But now, she had no idea how many people had witnessed her behavior.
The first time she took the initiative to seduce Yan Chi was completely ruined by this sudden turn of events. The sinister fire within her heart burned more intensely, and there was no way to alleviate it.
Embarrassed and filled with a mix of shame and indignation, Gu Qingtong almost curled her toes in regret and grievance. She felt a blend of unfulfilled desires and possessiveness.
It seemed that people caught in love always had some inexplicable sensitivity. Even Gu Qingtong didn’t expect that she would turn red-eyed directly due to unmet desires.
With damp eyes, she looked up at Yan Chi, as if accusing countless grievances. How come every time Yan Chi wanted to tease her before, she could do it shamelessly, but the moment she herself had some intentions, she encountered such an embarrassing situation!
With these thoughts, Gu Qingtong’s petulant side emerged, and she started complaining, including blaming Yan Chi.
Indeed, Yan Chi was always sensitive to cameras. The moment they entered the woods, she noticed the high-mounted cameras. Obviously, the production team had installed cameras all over the island, making it seem like there were no blind spots.
Moreover, when it came to using hidden cameras for live broadcasts, Director Bu had consulted Yan Chi in advance. He was aware of Yan Chi’s concerns about her privacy. Although he didn’t disclose the specific format, he had at least discussed it with her. This was the reason Yan Chi couldn’t satisfy her teasing little wife.
If everything they just did was really seen by the audience, Gu Qingtong would probably be embarrassed and indignant to the point of death. What would they do then?
From the audience’s perspective, as they entered the woods, the heart rate of the two in “Silent Gaze” turned red in just a moment, even skyrocketing, becoming the highest value in the entire venue at the same time.
Obviously, something quite exciting happened between the two! They escalated things…so quickly?
Although the audience was surprised, they were delighted at the unexpected turn of events. They were eager for more teasing between the two. The originally anticipated thrilling scene was turned around by Yan Chi. The audience only saw that the two were standing unusually close.
Yan Chi stood behind Gu Qingtong, adopting a posture as if she were going to embrace her from behind. She adjusted the microphone on Gu Qingtong’s chest.
“It’s okay now. Next time, I’ll take care of it.”
Yan Chi’s voice was clearly captured in the live broadcast, as if she was just reminding Gu Qingtong that if the microphone malfunctioned again, she could directly come to her.
But Gu Qingtong knew that Yan Chi was comforting her. Only she was clear in her heart that when Yan Chi’s fingertips grazed her exposed shoulder and collarbone, and when Yan Chi’s body curved against her back, revealed by the strapless dress, it became an even more dangerous and unbearable situation.
The mist in her eyes grew thicker, creating a hazy veil. It covered not only the seductive charm that had not dispersed but had, instead, reassembled due to various unresolved emotions.
Even if there were cameras….wasn’t the director aiming to accumulate heartbeat points for the participants?
If it’s done under the guise of a mission, no one will notice, right? Once she found a reason, the itching sensation in her heart grew wildly, showing a more profound surrender compared to when she uttered that sentence earlier.
Gu Qingtong deliberately avoided the camera, and combined with the dim light in the woods, the audience didn’t notice the difference in her eyes compared to usual. They were just watching the interaction between the two with various comments:
[They just wanted to fix a microphone, and it turned into a hugging-from-behind posture. What’s going on!]
[Teacher Yan is so skilled. If she fixed it from the front, how could it stick properly? The front still looks single at first glance.]
[So….the heartbeat just now was when Teacher Yan stuck it on. Did both sides react? I’m turning yellow, guys!]
By chance, although everyone had no idea about the sentence spoken by Gu Qingtong, they guessed a completely new angle. In just a moment, Yan Chi opened the microphone and released Gu Qingtong from her embrace.
“…Right now they’ve only just started the first round,” Gu Qingtong felt a sudden emptiness in her arms and on her back. She suddenly spoke, her voice resembling the initial teasing tone, soft and slightly seductive, with a hint of a cute nasal sound, “There’s still a long time. What should we do?”
“After all, the heart beat value is beyond our control. Teacher Yan, will you forgive my impulsive move today?” She whispered, unsure if she was consoling herself or explaining to someone.
“Because of this, whatever Teacher Yan does…I won’t reject it like the previous few episodes.” After saying this, Gu Qingtong, with misty eyes, bit her lip and looked at Yan Chi.
Since the entire island was covered with cameras, Gu Qingtong decided to openly and boldly tease Yan Chi, ignoring the cameras.
Yan Chi originally thought that Gu Qingtong would act shy as before, hiding because she had almost been discovered a moment ago. Then, she would have to coax and encourage her to gather the courage to try again.
Unexpectedly, even though she knew she was in front of the cameras, Gu Qingtong insisted on igniting the flames. Yan Chi suddenly laughed.
Playing with fire would lead to self-destruction, but even if Tongtong didn’t care, she was willing to be burned together with her. Since Yan Chi and Gu Qingtong were alone, the live broadcast had not shifted away from them.
At this moment, Gu Qingtong’s words seemed to superficially align with her previous experiences, but now, when singled out, they just sounded off.
This statement instantly exploded the heat of the live broadcast:
[It seems like Tong Mei is now a delicate flower picked by Teacher Yan. If she doesn’t refuse anything, that’s too charming. Can I listen for free?]
[The beauty seducing the submissive is just too much! Teacher Yan, if you can’t handle it, let me take over!!]
[Hurry, don’t pity Tong Mei. You can kiss and hug freely; anything is fine. Please, don’t force me to kneel!]
The most captivating aspect of their silent exchange was that, despite explicitly informing everyone beforehand that they were just putting on a show, it turned out to be a particularly realistic act.
Both in appearance and personality, the two were remarkably compatible, and many small details revealed a familiarity that surpassed the staged CP1Couple Pairing. In other words, even through the screen, one could feel the undercurrents between them, making the CP fans, although aware that the two were forced into a staged relationship, believe that there must be something more between them. Thus, they eagerly searched for evidence with a magnifying glass.
“Anything is fine to do?” Yan Chi’s voice was faint, and she even added a light laugh at the end of the sentence. Then she took a step forward, gently curving her index finger to touch the chin of the now blushing Gu Qingtong, lifting it to carefully examine her expression.
“Wasn’t anything fine? What are you afraid of?” Despite knowing that Gu Qingtong’s eyes were reddened due to emotional turmoil, Yan Chi deliberately suggested that she was afraid, causing all of her expressions to be laid bare in front of the camera.
If they wanted to make their staged relationship look real in front of the audience, Tongtong shouldn’t have played coy by turning her back to the camera.
Gu Qingtong remained in the position where she was forced to lift her face, locking eyes with Yan Chi. The burning fire within her heart made her bolder.
Since she had already expressed her desires, what was there to be afraid of? She even hatched a small retaliatory plan: “I’m not afraid. For every interaction with Teacher Yan, I’ll make sure to reciprocate.” With these words, her hands gently touched Yan Chi’s cheeks, cradling the stunning beauty that had been tantalizingly close for so long.
Seeing that she finally had some control over Yan Chi, she couldn’t help but wear a sly smile, reminiscent of a fox capturing its prey. Interactions, tasks—she wondered who these repeated mentions were directed towards.
However, if she enjoyed playing this way, Yan Chi was also eager to continue playing along. The barrage of comments exploded:
[Is this real? When I saw the awkward scenes between them in the first episode, I never thought we’d get to this point. I can die without regrets!]
[Haha, so the way for ‘Silent Gaze’ to deny the relationship rumors is to have more intense interactions than just a princess carry. Shoutout to the marketing account that exposed their relationship. The princess carry hasn’t even been broadcasted, and you’re already making a fuss. Can’t we stay calm if we don’t catch them kissing in the future?]
[Stop fighting, take it to the bedroom! The chin lift and face cradling are really going to sweeten my life!]
After all, it was a live broadcast of a romantic reality show, and the audience were mostly passersby enjoying the show. When had they ever witnessed such intense interactions? Not discussing this would be a waste of a human experience.
So for a moment, except for fans of “Silent Gaze,” nothing else could be seen, not even arguments. The production team stared in shock at the unfolding scene. How did they go from reluctantly participating to this level of interaction in just one short hour on the island? The heart rate values of the two had already accumulated halfway, and they hadn’t stopped flirting with each other!
On this side, Yan Chi had already withdrawn her hand. But Gu Qingtong not only cradled her cheeks, even daringly rubbing them, innocently saying: “Is Teacher Yan’s face cold? Did my hand warm it up?”
Clearly, Gu Qingtong had realized that since the arrival of the “heart rate” lifesaver, she could now freely and without any burden touch and tease Yan Chi! The jealousy that had built up a moment ago had now almost completely disappeared.
In her heart, Gu Qingtong thought, ‘What’s the deal with Yun Mingxuan’s fans? I can pinch my wife’s face. Can you do that?’ For a moment, it seemed like she wanted to make up for the scenes she had avoided before. Was today really going to be a day of unrestrained flirting?
Yan Chi looked at Gu Qingtong, who had suddenly become enchanting and cunning. Inside, she was not as calm as she appeared because no matter how close she was, she couldn’t taste it. Since things had gone this far, it was time to give her a little lesson.
Yan Chi’s hand reached around Gu Qingtong’s waist, skillfully giving it a pinch. The waist was Gu Qingtong’s sensitive spot, almost making her tremble with just a pinch, eliciting a sound.
She wasn’t prepared, and though she fiercely bit her lower lip, a faint “Hmm” still escaped. Gu Qingtong, who was standing, felt her body go soft and threw herself towards Yan Chi.
The position of Yan Chi’s hand was in a relatively concealed location outside the camera, hidden in the veil of her skirt. All everyone could see was Gu Qingtong mysteriously falling into Yan Chi’s arms, accompanied by some indescribable sounds.
[What kind of sound was that? So tender. Did it come from Tong Mei? Oh my god.]
[Wow, I just had the volume up! Almost scared to death, everyone.]
[Tender wife, hehehe, don’t let them hear us in bed!]
No matter how unrestrained Gu Qingtong was, she realized that the sounds she made were also in disarray. What she shamelessly ignored a moment ago was now causing a blush to spread across her entire face.
But when she tried to push Yan Chi away to get up, she found that Yan Chi had tightened her grip.
“Is your foot hurting again? Are you okay?” Yan Chi’s gentle and caring voice came the next second.
If Gu Qingtong didn’t know the whole story, she might have been deceived by this earnest concern, thinking that something was wrong with her foot again. Even though she was the one being bullied and exposed, now she had to help cover it up!
While Gu Qingtong felt frustrated, in order to explain her sudden behavior, she could only grit her teeth and say: “It seems like I twisted it again just now….it should be fine now. Teacher Yan, you don’t need to worry about me.”
Who would have thought that after acting together, she still couldn’t push Yan Chi away.
“It’s fine already?” Yan Chi looked at her foot, and in her gentle tone, there was an inexplicable hint of irresistible dominance. “Why do I feel like you deliberately said that just to reassure me? Do you mind if I help you check? “
Following Yan Chi’s gaze, Gu Qingtong looked down and saw the flat satin sandals she was wearing, which seemed all too easy to be taken off for a “check.”
Although she knew her foot was fine, the current joy in her heart still dominated. Despite complaining in her mind about Yan Chi, she couldn’t help but say: “Well….Teacher Yan, help me take a look. It should still be because of yesterday’s reason.”
After all, the person she desired was Yan Chi, and from that moment on, she was in Yan Chi’s grasp. The tables had turned since the days when Yan Chi used to coax her into doing such things. Now, it was her turn.
They walked over to the tree with the camera, and Gu Qingtong leaned against it, raising her eyes to meet the gaze of the dark lens. At this angle, the camera couldn’t capture anything below their upper bodies.
This clear realization flashed through Gu Qingtong’s mind. It meant that….the upper bodies were in plain view, portraying an image of decency, while the rest remained uncertain. Thinking about it, Gu Qingtong suddenly found this somewhat intrusive camera more agreeable. She looked at it with an increasingly innocent expression, thinking, what mischievous thoughts could a little camera have?
The live stream image was indeed affected; the wristband’s capture seemed to be based on the orientation of the wrist, making it highly unstable. Essentially, it served more as an audio receiver, and viewers mainly relied on a fixed secondary camera for the visuals.
However, now that Yan Chi had crouched down, the audience could only see the upper half of Gu Qingtong. The barrage, no matter how extreme, evidently did not anticipate that someone like Yan Chi would harbor such an unexpected fixation. Many quickly assumed that Gu Qingtong’s foot injury had indeed relapsed.
They had all witnessed Gu Qingtong’s early incident of saving someone and getting injured. Thinking back to when she fell in a certain Mousha shoot earlier, viewers hoped in the barrage that Gu Qingtong’s foot was okay. If Gu Qingtong knew she was live now, her conscience would surely ache again.
Yan Chi lifted Gu Qingtong’s foot, but all that could be seen were a few crystal-clear, round, and moist toes seemingly curling together out of shyness.
Her hands skillfully kneaded, but her voice showed no hint of difference: “There doesn’t seem to be any obvious redness or swelling here. Does it hurt?”
Where was the pain? Clearly, there was only an itching and a slight tingling sensation. Gu Qingtong exerted all her strength on the tree trunk, her hands twisted together to alleviate the involuntary trembling.
“No, it doesn’t hurt.”
When she said this, she still avoided the camera, evidently not completely accustomed to the gentlemanly appearance of her upper half.
Looking at Yan Chi crouched in front of her, Gu Qingtong, rarely taking the upper hand, suddenly became a bit playful. She used the tip of her foot to press on her hand, immediately drawing a meaningful gaze from Yan Chi.
“If you can step on someone, it looks like you’re really okay.”
Yan Chi’s voice came with a teasing tone, deviating from the usual expectations and giving Gu Qingtong a big surprise.
“I… I didn’t step on you! It was, it was an accident!” Clearly, she was the one who enjoyed being stepped on! She hurriedly denied, not wanting to carry the strange label of someone who liked stepping on others.
[Stepping on? Hahaha, what is Tong Mei doing? Daring to step on Teacher Yan after two episodes of not seeing each other?]
[Ah? Where did she step? Let me see. Program team, adjust the camera!]
Just as everyone was laughing and curious, a long-awaited scene suddenly switched. This time, what lit up was surprisingly Bai Jin’s heart rate.
Unexpectedly, when the scene switched to Bai Jin, it was right by the small grove where they had just exchanged silent glances.
There was also a fixed camera hidden in the bushes outside, perfectly capturing Bai Jin’s actions.
All viewers saw Bai Jin holding the GoPro provided by the program team, quietly filming Gu Qingtong and Yan Chi.
Bai Jin was not ready to give up. She wanted to capture some real evidence. So, after five rounds, she volunteered to call the two of them back.
From Bai Jin’s perspective, she could see Yan Chi half-crouched in front of Gu Qingtong, who was leaning slightly against the tree trunk. Even the hem of Gu Qingtong’s skirt, not concealed by Yan Chi’s figure, was lifted.
In the pitch-dark scene, although not clear, it seemed like a certain action done outdoors…
Bai Jin, thinking she had encountered live evidence, was clearly excited. Her heart rate, which had not exceeded 100 in the Truth or Dare game, easily surpassed that mark, leading to the broadcast of the scene.
At first, the audience didn’t realize that Bai Jin was secretly filming, and her shadowy appearance startled them. The idol who usually wore a smiling face seemed like a completely different person.
[Is this part of a mission? Or… is she filming secretly? So creepy!]
[The program team said the guests didn’t know they were going live. It seems like she’s really filming. What the heck.]
Just then, a fan of Yan Chi came forward to reveal an internal discovery that hadn’t been disclosed before:
[It seems that a big shot amongTeacher Yan’s fans has found out that the marketing media studio that exposed the relationship today is a subsidiary of Bai Jin’s company. At that time, no one thought it was related to Bai Jin, but now, seeing this sneak shot, it feels a bit familiar…]
As if to confirm that there was indeed an issue, the program team unexpectedly cut the live stream for the first time. A long-lost blackout appeared on the live broadcast, markedly different from the previous operations when switching to the next heart rate guest.
For a moment, almost everyone felt that something was subtly wrong. The barrage was also in a frenzy, suspecting whether Bai Jin intended to force them to come out of the closet.
After all, the live stream audience was well aware of what Gu Qingtong and Yan Chi were doing. Without the prior knowledge that Gu Qingtong had twisted her foot again, helping to check her foot would indeed be an intimate act. Adding to that was the intricate connection with the gossip exposé blogger.
Some fans of Yan Chi even left, choosing to contact the person who uncovered the relationship.
The most infuriating aspect of that exposé for Yan Chi’s fans was the invasion of Yan Chi’s privacy and the spreading of false rumors, clearly targeting Yan Chi.
This could not be tolerated.
Bai Jin apparently did not realize the ongoing livestream and the brewing public opinion behind it. She was solely focused on capturing the evidence.
Seeing that both of them had stood up and realizing that there wasn’t much left to capture, Bai Jin packed up her camera and said: “Five rounds have passed; you can come back now.”
Gu Qingtong, not expecting someone to be hiding outside and watching, shuddered. Seeing that it was Bai Jin, she felt a bit strange and uneasy, so she looked up at Yan Chi beside her.
Yan Chi had long seen the figure in the shadows behind the trees. She had been standing there for so long; of course, it wasn’t for nothing.
