Chapter 39 Matching Roles with Heartbeats
Chen Yuan found a seat and sat down, waiting. Shouldn't there be 'loser' missions scheduled at this time normally?
After a while, seeing that no one seemed to be trying to give him a note, he realized that this was for real.
My heart is fluttering!
Chen Yuan scratched his head. He knew he was moved, but how could he know exactly what percentage of his heart was moved, and under what circumstances?
Seeing that others had already started writing, Chen Yuan put aside his thoughts and began to think seriously.
The first profile picture was of Zhang Jianjian. As the first female guest he met, Zhang Jianjian was the first "loser" he was tasked with.
It was an awkward start.
Moreover, he spent quite a lot of time with Zhang Jianjian in subsequent interactions.
I can't write "perfect score," and "high score" is an exaggeration, so how about 60?
A passing grade.
Chen Yuan thought for a moment and filled in the blank with points for his affection for Zhang Jianjian.
The second one is Meng Shuran.
A girl he felt very unfamiliar with, Meng Shuran, had spoken very little with him and was the only one he hadn't teamed up with. Chen Yuan only felt that Meng Shuran gave off an ethereal feeling.
In terms of ethereal beauty alone, giving it a score of 60 wouldn't be unreasonable, right?
Therefore, Chen Yuan gave Meng Shuran a score of 60 for being attracted to him.
The third is Xu Zhiyi...
Chen Yuan looked up and spotted Xu Zhiyi in the crowd. "Huh, that's strange. I haven't seen her and Li Xin together lately."
At first, he treated Xu Zhiyi as Li Xin, and then there was no pressure in their relationship.
Unbeknownst to them, Xu Zhiyi and Li Xin had parted ways.
You'll definitely get a score of 60.
Chen Yuan skillfully wrote sixty in the blank space, but then he thought about it and felt that this would not work. If all three were sixty, would he be criticized for not being serious?
So he came up with a plan: he added three points after Xu Zhiyi's score of sixty.
"Is this alright?" Chen Yuan felt that this reflected his inner change, and he was truly amazed by his own cleverness.
The remaining two are Su Qingyuan and Lin Wanxing.
Su Qingyuan is lively and active, a far cry from her initial aloof impression. She seems to be a girl who can get along well with others once she gets to know them.
How about sixty-five?
As for Lin Wanxing, she was a bit timid and was the first one to cry in the haunted house, but she was also easygoing and forgot about her unhappiness as soon as she turned her head.
An optimistic girl, no wonder she's called the "Queen of Energy".
Full of energy.
How about sixty-five?
Chen Yuan thought the score was reasonable, and thus, all five people had filled in their "heartbeat" scores.
Two sixties, one sixty-three, two sixty-fives.
Chen Yuan didn't rush to hand it in, but waited for the others' reactions. At this time, apart from Jiang Yichen and Zhang Jianjian who had already finished writing, the others were still thinking.
The three who had stopped writing exchanged a glance, then tacitly pretended not to have seen anything.
Soon, people started writing their pieces one after another.
With two minutes left before the recording ended, everyone had finished writing.
"Then I'll collect them," the butler said with a smile. Seeing that no one wanted to hand them over voluntarily, he stepped forward to collect them.
After the housekeeper collected everyone's "heart cards," he handed them to a staff member to take away, and then the familiar raffle box was pushed back up.
"Next, please draw your roles. These roles are different from those at the arts festival; they are the roles we'll be filming in Dunhuang," the butler explained.
"Then, as usual, I'll go first." Lu Zeyan stood up, walked to the lottery box, reached out and drew one, then stepped aside and opened it.
Then everyone took turns drawing a black ball.
As everyone opened their black balls, a flurry of discussion erupted.
"What? I'm in charge of the photo spot." Zhang Jianjian looked at the housekeeper in confusion.
"I'm a food stall owner." Lin Wanxing was a little annoyed. It seemed she was supposed to be selling food?
At this point, everyone started asking each other questions.
"Chen Yuan, you're so lucky! A music stall, I want one too!" Lin Wanxing looked at Chen Yuan's stall with envy.
"Butler, what does this mean? A mascot?" Meng Shuran looked at her character with a blank expression.
"It means mascot," Su Qingyuan said earnestly from the side. "Have you forgotten that there are always mascots or something during sports meets?"
"..."
Meng Shuran looked utterly hopeless; she hadn't even had a chance to show her face.
Xu Zhiyi was assigned cosplay, to portray a female general from Dunhuang culture. She felt cursed, first a skit, and then she had to do role-playing.
On the male guests' side, Jiang Yichen drew the gift distribution role, Ji Chengyu drew the security job, and Lu Zeyan and Shen Zhici became partners, responsible for attracting new users, looking completely bewildered.
"Everyone, please gather in the courtyard tomorrow. Someone will take you to your posts at nine o'clock in the morning. You will rest at 11:30. After breakfast, it will be rehearsal time. After the rehearsal, you can go back to your posts," the butler said.
It's already 10:05, and the recording is still going on.
The housekeeper hadn't left yet, clearly there was still something left to do.
A short while later, the staff member who had just left with the heart-fluttering card returned and handed a form to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper glanced at the form and smiled, "Alright, now let's announce the matching results. The matching was based on the male and female guests giving each other the closest scores."
"Suppose male guest A gives female guest A a score of 60, while female guest A gives him a score of 58, and the other female guests give scores of 20 or 30, then male guest A and female guest A will be paired together."
If the scores are tied, the female guest will make the choice.
"Does everyone understand?"
"..."
"It's a bit convoluted, but it's still understandable," Lu Zeyan said. "It means that the closest matches are grouped together, and if there are three matches with similar scores, the female guest makes a choice."
"Which female guest will choose?" Ji Chengyu continued to ask.
"Let the female guests decide who goes first," the butler said with a slight smile, shifting the responsibility to the guests.
Everyone immediately rolled their eyes at the butler.
The butler's lips curled into a slight smile before he began announcing the matching results.
"First, the first group, Jiang Yichen's best match is Lin Wanxing, with a heart-fluttering score of 80 to 75."
"I'm only announcing the results. As for the scores the two guests gave to the others, you can ask them yourselves," the butler added.
"In the second group, Lu Zeyan's best match is Xu Zhiyi, with a heart-fluttering score of 50 to 45."
"..."
The scene fell silent; awkwardness reigned, and someone scratched their head.
Lu Zeyan wanted to disappear into the ground, while Xu Zhiyi glanced at him expressionlessly and said calmly, "We are both managers, this is normal impression points."
"That's right, I agree." Lu Zeyan breathed a sigh of relief and quickly chimed in, "After all, when people like us are looking for a partner, we don't want to find someone with a strong personality like each other."
"And then the two of you still ended up entangled together..." Su Qingyuan muttered softly.
The next moment, Xu Zhiyi gave her a killer look. This unexpected matching result was simply unreasonable, but she roughly knew why she had to do it.
