Chapter 609 The heartthrob who lost his halo in a dating simulation (18)
Song Shiyan was only thinking that Mu Zhou would easily get sick if he drank alcohol and then caught a dampness.
She was too thin and her immune system wasn't very strong.
He completed these tasks naturally, without giving them much thought.
So much so that when everything was done, Mu Zhou was already in his arms, and his back was pressed against the artificial hill, he was completely stunned.
Outside the artificial hill, Shen Fang was still cursing and swearing.
"Where did those two go? They're still not back so late..."
The voice gradually became quieter.
Mu Zhou peeked out cautiously, and only after making sure no one was looking did he emerge from the artificial hill and say to Song Shiyan:
"Is he looking for us? What does it matter to him whether we go back or not?"
Song Shiyan Dansheng's explanation:
"Don't worry about him, he's never been a good person to get along with."
Mu Zhou nodded in agreement:
"Indeed, I almost drowned the first time I went out with him. He's such a grown man, yet he's so childish and awful. I really hate him."
Hearing her evaluation of Shen Fang like that, Song Shiyan was secretly pleased and continued to subtly sow discord.
"Stay away from him in the future. I will try my best to keep you away from him."
Mu Zhou turned to look at him, only then realizing that the two were now exes.
She took a step back to keep her distance and said to him:
"No need. I'm here to find a new boyfriend. Don't interfere with me getting to know other people. Also, don't touch me in the future. I have nothing to do with you."
After saying that, Mu Zhou jogged away.
As Song Shiyan watched her retreating figure, he felt less annoyed for the first time.
He knew that Mu Zhou was just shy.
He left in a cheerful mood.

At 8 PM, the first episode of the second season of "Heartbeat Belongs to You" was officially released.
The guests were all eating at the table at this time.
Shen Fang's expression was very unpleasant.
His gaze swept over Song Shiyan and then turned to Mu Zhou.
Shen Fang recalled how Mu Zhou looked when he returned.
Her cheeks were flushed, and there was a hint of shyness in her eyes. She didn't even see him when she went upstairs.
Song Shiyan followed closely behind and returned, clearly in a good mood.
Moreover, just now at the dinner table, the moment the two made eye contact, Mu Zhou subconsciously looked away.
His guilty conscience was obvious.
Something must have happened.
Shen Fang gripped the chopsticks tightly, his forearm veins bulging.
Once dinner was over, he couldn't stand it any longer and wanted to drag Song Shiyan away.
But Song Shiyan had work today and didn't have time to deal with him.
Enraged, Shen Fang went to the gym alone and punched the sandbag for over half an hour before venting his anger.

After washing up, Mu Zhou lay in bed and turned on his phone.
Sure enough, discussions about the first episode have already become very heated.
The website also has a dedicated discussion group.
Mu Zhou opened the app, and most of the posts inside were about digging into the guests' family backgrounds and discussing their first dates.
The first episode of the show ended abruptly with the first date, showing where everyone received their own heart-fluttering messages.
Naturally, the scene where Mu Zhou and Shen Fang fell into the water during their rafting date was not included in the final cut.
Only a small portion of the rafting trip was shown, along with some short clips of the two people gazing at each other on the bus.
There's been a lot of discussion about Mu Zhou within the group.
Because of her appearance, and also because she never left a single message expressing her interest.
Everyone was curious: how come none of the male guests who dated such a beautiful girl with a good personality were interested in her?
Even if you're not attracted to someone, you'd still give them something out of basic courtesy.
Since the show has just started and everyone is still unfamiliar with each other, leaving a message of interest to your date is a safe bet.
But this time it was different from usual.
As a result, conspiracy theories began to emerge.
Doesn't anyone else think that this third female lead has a bit of a scheming streak?
Viewers of the show are used to calling the guests by their order of appearance. For example, Mu Zhou, who is the third female guest to appear, is called "Female Third".
This post immediately garnered a lot of approval.
The post began to feature numerous screenshots of Mu Zhou's expressions.
These were all close-up shots of Mu Zhou taken separately by the production team at Shen Fang's instruction, which were then slowed down and placed in some subtle interactions.
It's hard not to overthink it.
Of course, amidst the conspiracy theories, there were also those who marveled at Mu Zhou's beauty.
To be honest, the third female lead's face is absolutely stunning; who wouldn't be confused by it?
[I don't think any of the male guests seemed confused at all; are they really that composed? I was stunned even watching through the screen.]
[Please stop hyping up the third female guest, okay? Don't you even know what kind of families the four male guests come from? They've already dug up almost everything online. What kind of beautiful women haven't they seen? Why would they even look at the third female guest?]
[Yeah, the fact that the third female guest didn't leave a single "heart-fluttering" comment already speaks volumes. The four male guests come from such wealthy families; they've seen plenty of women like her. They have excellent judgment and clearly don't find her attractive.]
Mu Zhou glanced through it briefly and could clearly see signs of trolls trying to stir up trouble and smear him.
Basically, it means that she always stares at Shen Fang because she knows he's a third-generation rich kid and wants to seduce him, etc.
They also criticized her for dressing too revealingly and deliberately showing her legs.
Even with Mu Zhou's deliberate avoidance, the online trolls still managed to find something to criticize in the most obscure corners.
Mu Zhou had to admire him.
Of course, some observant people noticed that when Mu Zhou saw Song Shiyan, his expression showed a moment of stunned silence and unease.
Therefore, it was suspected that the two were "overdue lovers".
However, some people noticed that Lin Weixia's gaze towards Song Shiyan was not entirely innocent.
Thus began a chaotic mix of speculations.
Mu Zhou looked at it for a while, and just as she put down her phone to rest, she suddenly received a message that made her heart flutter.
She raised an eyebrow.
The message was a photo of Mu Zhou on a carousel.
The sender was Song Shiyan.
This was the first heartwarming message Mu Zhou received.
Her performance certainly paid off.
She put down her phone and lay down to sleep, completely satisfied.

The villa terrace on the other side.
Shen Fang was interrogating Song Shiyan.
Where did you two go on your date today?
"Why so long?"
What happened?
"Why is Mu Zhou drinking? Did you force her to drink?"
Why was her face so red when she came back?
"Your car is parked in the park. Where did you go? Were you with Mu Zhou?"
Shen Fang, like a jealous husband who has caught his wife cheating, bombarded her with questions.
The scene fell silent for a moment.
When Shen Fang caught a glimpse of the others looking at him simultaneously, his face stiffened.
He then calmly sat down on the sofa, trying to maintain his previous laziness.
"I saw Mu Zhou's flirtatious expression and was afraid that you had forgotten the humiliation you suffered back then and had been bewitched by her again."
It sounds like he's being nonchalant.
When questioned by Shen Fang, Song Shiyan remained calm and composed.
They didn't care at all.
There was no need for him to report his affairs with Mu Zhou to them one by one.
That was their secret.
Song Shiyan smiled and was about to speak when several of their phones rang at the same time.
It was a message from the production team that made me feel excited.
It rang four times in total.
But only three people's phones were ringing.
The smile that was playing on Song Shiyan's lips suddenly froze.
Because his phone wasn't ringing.
