At eight o’clock on Saturday night, everyone gathered in front of their televisions, waiting for the broadcast of Love Cottage.
This episode was destined to break viewership ratings once again.
Because, in this episode, the long-awaited Fourth Female Guest was finally about to make her appearance!
Based on the preview for the next episode, this Fourth Female Guest seemed to be the same type as Female Guest No. 1, Bai Baozhu! Although her face wasn’t shown, judging by her clothing, style, and aura, she appeared to be the same kind of beauty.
Moreover, being able to appear as the fourth female guest on Love Cottage, her looks surely wouldn’t be bad! After all, if her looks weren’t up to par, joining the show last as the fourth female guest would pose no threat whatsoever.
Therefore, the audience members who disliked Bai Baozhu were extremely excited for the arrival of the Fourth Female Guest. Perhaps she could break Bai Baozhu’s status as the ‘Heartthrob’ within Love Cottage!
Unfortunately… the TV station was truly shameless!
The fifth episode, which the audience had been anticipating for a whole week, turned out to be yet another episode dominated by Female Guest No. 1, Bai Baozhu!
The newly arrived Male Lead Number Four had indeed proactively asked Bai Baozhu out on a date!
The long-awaited Fourth Female Guest only appeared at the very end of the fifth episode! And! She made her appearance by sending a text message to the four male guests.
This nearly made all the viewers so angry they wanted to smash their TVs!
So, after the over-an-hour-long program ended, Love Cottage once again soared onto the hot search list!
Love Cottage Fake Preview!#, #Today’s Bai Baozhu is Still Playing the Field!#…
Several hot search topics related to Love Cottage made the list!
Angry viewers flocked online to criticize Love Cottage‘s editing and previews!
Of course, the one who received the most criticism was still the Female Lead Number One from Love Cottage, Bai Baozhu.
『I’m going to be sick watching this episode of Love Cottage! Bai Baozhu is already keeping so many ‘fish’, can’t she leave the new Male Lead Number Four alone?』
『Is the director of Love Cottage related to Bai Baozhu or something? Why does Bai Baozhu have so many, many scenes! Can you show more of our Little Angel Hanhan!』
『Little Angel Su Han is really too pitiful! Coming to participate in a dating show, yet she hardly gets any screen time! The most screen time she gets is when she’s seen in the kitchen! Either on her way to cook or on her way to wash dishes. Oh my goodness, what kind of dating show is Little Angel Su Han participating in? I feel like she went to Love Cottage to be a housemaid!』
『Yeah! Su Han is indeed very pitiful. She was the one who received Bo Shenyu’s gift first, yet Bai Baozhu snatched the dating opportunity from her. It’s just too tragic.』
『Ahhh! I’m going crazy! When will the male guests in Love Cottage discover Bai Baozhu’s true colors! I can barely keep watching!!!』
『Stay strong! We can win! Just now, a certain emotional psychology UP Master analyzed the romantic developments in this episode of Love Cottage. It seems the male guests in Love Cottage have all started to change significantly!』
『Yes! I watched it too! The UP Master analyzed all the dating guests’ micro-expressions and behaviors in the program. They concluded that Male Lead Number One, Wei Wenbo, actually no longer likes Bai Baozhu and has fallen for Little Angel Su Han.
And Male Lead Number Two, Lin Dong, also gave up on Bai Baozhu after his date with Xia Tiantian and has been locked in with Xia Tiantian ever since.
As for Male Lead Number Three, Bo Shenyu, he has always been in a detached state. Although among all the female guests, he has only gone on a date with Bai Baozhu. However, he did not fall for her.
The newly arrived Male Lead Number Four, Jiang Boyan… the UP Master analyzed him! This new Male Lead Number Four might be a player! After returning to the cottage from the date, he probably noticed some of Bai Baozhu’s ‘fish farming’ behavior, so he likely won’t choose Bai Baozhu again in the future!』
『Wow! I just finished watching that UP Master’s analysis too! It’s simply amazing! And so convincing! According to the UP Master’s speculation, starting from the sixth episode, Bai Baozhu is going to start getting zero votes!』
『Really? Is it true? Starting from the sixth episode, that fish-farming Green Tea Bai Baozhu is really going to get zero votes???』
『Regardless of whether it’s true or not! I’m waiting for the arrival of Love Cottage‘s sixth episode! I want to see that Green Tea Bai Baozhu crash and burn with zero votes!!!』
『Really? Really? The sixth episode airs tomorrow! Can I get my hopes up?』
『If Bai Green Tea really gets zero votes, with no one choosing her, that would truly be a cause for celebration! Simply fantastic!』
『Hearing that Bai Green Tea is going to get zero votes starting from the sixth episode, I’m so excited I can hardly sleep!』
…
It was unknown where this UP Master came from, but after they posted a detailed analysis video on the romantic developments in Love Cottage, all the viewers who had been infuriated by the fifth episode’s plot completely erupted!
The internet exploded into chaos!
Everyone endlessly debated whether Bai Baozhu would truly get zero votes in the next episode!
Meanwhile, Bai Baozhu, whom countless people were discussing possibly getting zero votes, was currently… sending today’s love text message.
The program had been recording for half a month, and all the dating guests were no longer as conflicted as in the early stages about who to send their nightly love text message to.
Now, everyone had a clear target, except… for Bai Baozhu!
Bai Baozhu was like an exam cheater. Taking advantage of when no one was paying attention, she once again took out her ‘green head plaque’ and quickly tossed out a number.
The result—
“…!!!”
Bai Baozhu stared dumbfounded at the number 4 that appeared on the exquisite ball.
She never imagined that after arguing with that annoying guy just this morning, she would… draw his name tonight!
Doesn’t count! Doesn’t count! I’ll throw it again!
Looking at that 4, Bai Baozhu petulantly grumbled in her heart and decided to throw it once more!
However, unexpectedly, the second throw also resulted in the number 4!
This truly angered Bai Baozhu!
She decided! She was going to replace this disobedient exquisite ball!
Of course, before replacing it, she still had to choose someone to send the message to.
Although Bai Baozhu didn’t want to send it to Jiang Boyan, she didn’t have any other good candidates for the love text message either.
In the end, she still sent the troublesome nightly love text message to Jiang Boyan.
Only—
“…Is Bai Baozhu serious? This love text message looks more and more like a threat message no matter how you read it.”
“Yeah… and it’s also very childish.”
“I don’t even know what to say for a moment. I can only say… the celebrity observers will have a hard time with this later!”
When the Love Cottage staff saw that Bai Baozhu’s love text message tonight was sent to Jiang Boyan, they were utterly shocked.
After seeing the content of the love text message, they were even more bewildered.
They discovered that starting from the seventh episode, Bai Baozhu’s votes had become increasingly… baffling!
Amidst the anticipation of all the dating guests (except Bai Baozhu!), most of them received today’s love text message.
Looking at the information transmitted to their phones, some were joyful, some were disappointed, and one person—was stunned!
And that person was Jiang Boyan.
“…Damn!”
Jiang Boyan stared wide-eyed at the only text message he received today, which was also the only love text message he had received in the past few days. He couldn’t help but utter that very expressive word, “Damn.”
He seemed unable to believe his eyes and looked again at the love text message he received.
『Remember what you said today. Otherwise……』
Was this damn thing a love text message? This was clearly a threat message! Could the nightly messages be sent like this?
After reading this so-called love text message a full five times, Jiang Boyan was furious!
Without even thinking, he knew this so-called love text message was from Bai Baozhu!
And! Looking at this message brimming with threatening implications, Jiang Boyan actually felt a twinge of regret for sending his own text message to Su Han tonight.
After taking a shower, Jiang Boyan was still thinking about Bai Baozhu’s love text message right before bed.
Until he overheard the conversation between Wei Wenbo and Lin Dong.
“Brother Bo, did you manage your sun date?”
“Yeah, just wrote it. I’m a bit worried now whether Xiao Han will reject it.”
“Don’t worry, she probably won’t reject it.”
“Sigh, I hope so.”
…
Jiang Boyan never expected that just stepping out to get a glass of water, he would overhear such a conversation.
He fell silent for a moment. It was then that he truly realized that, at some point, the ‘most popular person’ in this villa had shifted from Bai Baozhu to Su Han…
For a moment, Jiang Boyan felt something wasn’t quite right, but he couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was off.
…
The next day, early in the morning, Bai Baozhu complied with the unanimous request of all the dating guests and made a breakfast identical to yesterday’s—crab roe soup dumplings and crab roe noodles.
The only difference from yesterday morning was that today, several people helped her with the prep work, dismantling the crabs.
Thus, everyone once again witnessed Bai Baozhu’s astonishing crab-dismantling skills!
“Zhu Zhu, your speed at dismantling crabs is absolutely incredible!”
“These dumpling wrappers are also amazing!”
“This filling is fantastic too!”
…
Amidst a chorus of praise, today’s breakfast was completed.
Everyone eagerly carried their own portions of crab roe soup dumplings and crab roe noodles to the dining table, except… for Jiang Boyan.
“Heavens, this broth is so fresh!”
“The crab meat melts in your mouth, so tender!”
“This mouthful of crab roe noodles almost made me cry, it’s so delicious!”
…
With the rich, savory aroma of the food filling his nose, and listening to the others continuously praising how delicious the breakfast Bai Baozhu made was, Jiang Boyan, who had no portion, was utterly depressed!
Especially when Jiang Boyan saw that even the program staff, who weren’t dating guests, had received portions, leaving him as the only one without, his depression deepened even further!
After breakfast was finished, everyone noticed—
“Huh, someone has initiated a dating date again. And two people initiated it together!”
Everyone saw on the bulletin board in Love Cottage that two male guests had respectively initiated sun dates with two female guests.
“Wei Wenbo invited Su Han…”
“Lin Dong invited Ye Jingyu?!”
Compared to Wei Wenbo and Su Han, which didn’t surprise anyone, Lin Dong inviting Ye Jingyu truly caught the others off guard.
After all, those two didn’t usually have much interaction.
Xia Tiantian stared at the conspicuous sun dates on the bulletin board. Although she had already given up on Lin Dong in her heart, seeing this scene still made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.
“Are you going to draw a sun?”
Seeing Xia Tiantian staring fixedly at the bulletin board, and knowing Xia Tiantian still liked Lin Dong, Bai Baozhu softly mumbled.
“No, I won’t draw. Zhu Zhu, let’s go on a date today too!”
Xia Tiantian smiled brilliantly at Bai Baozhu, but Bai Baozhu felt that smile looked more like crying, appearing rather pitiful.
“Okay.”
At noon, because there were two sun dates scheduled for today, the Love Cottage villa was empty once again.
Just like last time, the villa inexplicably only had Bai Baozhu and Xia Tiantian left, making Xia Tiantian seem even more forlorn.
Taking advantage of Xia Tiantian’s habit of taking an afternoon nap, Bai Baozhu sneaked into the kitchen alone to prepare a secret surprise.
“I heard eating sweets can make you feel better when you’re in a bad mood…”
Therefore, she decided to make a dessert she had just learned—a lethally sweet lava molten chocolate cake!!!
At this moment, Bai Baozhu was still painstakingly making dessert in hopes of cheering up the unhappy Xia Tiantian, unaware that she herself was in a much more miserable situation than Xia Tiantian!
After the broadcast of Love Cottage‘s fifth episode, following a night and a morning of fermentation, Bai Baozhu once again single-handedly made it onto the hot search list!
A super topic titled #Has Bai Baozhu Crashed?#, with its soaring popularity, came from behind and charged into the top three of the hot search list!
