Chapter 93: The Hated Miss of the Dating Show (42)

Chapter 93 The Hated Socialite on the Dating Show (42)

Mi Yang's new album launch blew up on trending thanks to Tang Qing's surprise appearance.

Beyond the album's killer tracks, it was Tang Qing who stole the show.

Her vibe was next-level—drop-dead gorgeous looks and a voice that outshined most female celebs today.

Paired with the sea of fan lights and screams, their off-the-charts chemistry became the talk of the town.

"OMG this slaps! Tang Qing, just debut already!"

"Best live performance ever! Mi Yang kept checking her out in the video—hello, lovebirds?!"

"GOAT dating show moment! Thought bro was just clocking in, but nah, he met his soulmate! This might as well be their wedding announcement!"

Fans who saw the clips flooded the feed with support.

Mi Yang scrolled through the comments, grin widening like an idiot.

"Y'all get it." Switching to his finsta, he spam-liked every "couple goals" post, riding the high.

"Enough celebrating." Anna shoved a phone at him. "Do your job—plug the album."

The Weibo draft was ready: a dry-as-toast post with just his album link.

"Where's the event photos?" The brat pouted. "This is boring."

"Your highness, you're already everywhere online. Need more promo?"

"Why not?"

Side-eyeing his manager, Mi Yang snuck in a photo—their faces pressed close in the group shot, facing away from the crowd. An ocean of fan lights framed them, looking way too cozy.

Those glow sticks? Basically screaming "couple goals."

His only keepsake from the night.

"There. Happy?" He tossed the phone back.

"Sure... you’ve ‘worked hard’..." Anna’s eye-twitch of doom hit when she spotted the photo. "MI YANG!"

This man was wildin’—zero shame in his simp game.

Inviting Tang Qing was already risky, but she’d killed it.

"What’s the big deal? It’s just one pic!" He dodged her death glare.

Anna sighed. "You’d better lock her down by finale."

"Or you’ll be the one doing damage control."

With this level of public thirst, failure meant career-ending cringe.

Here's the edited translation incorporating the expert suggestions:

Just as Mi Yang updated his Weibo, the comments section immediately sparked discussions:

"Are they really together? Aren't those light signs in the background a confession?"

"Whether they're together or not, I don't know, but Mi Yang seems genuinely smitten. This Weibo post is so sneaky!"

"Waiting for an official announcement, hahaha."

"Xiang Xiuran also posted on Weibo, ladies, go check it out now!"

While discussions under Mi Yang's post were heating up, Xiang Xiuran updated his Weibo too, sharing a photo of Tang Qing's profile on the big screen. Dr. Xiang nailed the shot—Tang Qing's glance back, as if looking at someone through the lens.

"You hold my whole world in your eyes—Xiang Xiuran."

"OMG OMG! Is the doctor hinting at something? I remember what he said in the last episode: 'Welcome to my world.'"

"I can't even! This is straight out of a romance novel! Dr. Xiang's got game!"

"Dr. Xiang! Your princess will definitely see this! [SCREAMING]"

With both male guests posting simultaneously, fans rushed to weigh in, even placing bets on who Tang Qing would choose on the final confession night.

Thanks to these posts, the dating show's popularity soared again, solidifying its rep as the country's hottest dating show.

System: "All Love Points have increased! Currently, Mi Yang has 88 points, Xiang Xiuran has 93 points, and Su Chengwen has 91 points."

*Giggles* "Tang Qing, this new album launch was a total win."

Chuckling to itself, the system observed that the moment Tang Qing stepped on stage, the Love Points of all three male leads immediately shot up!

Tang Qing on stage was utterly captivating—you couldn't take your eyes off her.

"What happens when the Love Points are maxed out in this world's storyline?" Tang Qing suddenly asked.

"A placeholder will perfectly mimic your logic and behavioral patterns, running algorithms to predict the choices you'd make, and continue living in this world in your place."

"I see." Tang Qing understood, though she wondered if that eagle-eyed Dr. Xiang would notice anything...

Likely due to the show's surge in popularity, all guests received new date mission alerts that night.

This time, the task was a romantic photo session.

The rule was: both sides had to choose each other. A successful match would allow them to participate.

The choice this time lay with Tang Qing.

"Tang Qing, who will you choose?"

The system buzzed with curiosity. With Mi Yang and Xiang Xiuran coming on stronger, it figured either would be fine.

"Su Chengwen."

The system reacted: "Wait, what?"

Tang Qing explained, "Our book-smart guy's too shy—not one to make the first move."

"So let's create some opportunities for him." As for Mi Yang and Xiang Xiuran, these two would come running either way—no bait needed.

Only Su Chengwen was slightly less proactive.

Sure enough, as soon as the match was confirmed, Mi Yang rushed to Tang Qing’s door, glaring with obvious dissatisfaction.

"Why?"

He had a temper, this young master. If she didn’t know this guy liked her, the look in his eyes would’ve been no different from staring at an enemy.

"Why did you pick Su Chengwen?"

Hadn’t he made it obvious enough? He even posted it on Weibo—did she miss it?

"Didn’t you post a photo too?" The young lady didn’t back down, firing back a question.

That instantly shut Mi Yang up.

"Wasn’t yours a couple photo? You stuck so close to me, smiling so happily."

With every word she spoke, Mi Yang’s head spun a little more.

What the hell was this? What did she mean by *he* stuck to *her*?

He’d barged in all worked up, only to turn into a bashful puppy, too flustered to look her in the eye. "I didn’t…"

"We already have a photo together," she said slowly. "That’s why I chose Su Chengwen."

Half-getting her point, the flustered puppy gave a dazed nod—it did kind of make sense—still mulling it over.

Tang Qing took advantage of his distraction and shut the door directly. "Goodnight."

Only when the door slammed shut did Mi Yang snap out of it!

Shit! She’d played him! That’s got nothing to do with it!

"That doesn’t mean anything!"

"Explain yourself—what kind of logic is that?"
