When the Side Character Gets a System and Travels through Difference Worlds Chapter 118: Yi Ru 2

Zhou Yan covered her mouth in surprise. "This is the female guest who has had the fastest and most chairs turn for her since our show began. I have a question."

Tan You glanced at her. "Please, go ahead."

Zhou Yan looked at Tan You curiously. "Usually, the female guests choose to wear a mask when they co on stage. Why did you..."

Tan You smiled. "A face is ant to be seen. Besides, it would be inconvenient to wear a mask with my look today. It would ruin my hairstyle."

Standing closer, Zhou Yan got an even clearer look at Tan You. "Your skin is truly amazing. I bet you use pearl powder for your beauty routine, right?"

Tan You knew she was setting up a product placent, so she played along. "You’re absolutely right. In fact, I use the pearl powder from a certain popular brand, and their face masks, too."

As soon as she said this, the studio audience burst into laughter. After all, who wouldn’t like a beautiful girl with a sense of humor?

The smile on Zhou Yan’s face grew wider, and her tone softened. "Alright, our female guest is simply stunning, and we’ve been chatting so much right from the start. Let’s begin the official part of our show. Please introduce yourself and state your love declaration."

Tan You was perfectly calm. "Hello everyone, my na is Yi Ru. I’m 23 years old, and I’m from Z Province, where I run a Hanfu shop. My love declaration is..."

Seeing all the male guests looking at her, Tan You didn’t feel the slightest bit of nervousness, excitent, or any other emotion.

She pondered for a mont. "To choose a city and grow old, to pick a person and see our hair turn white. I don’t start things lightly, nor do I end them easily."

The mont she finished speaking, a male guest imdiately raised his hand with a question. Zhou Yan quickly moved the show along. "Not so fast. First, let’s have our female guest make her ’Heart’s Choice’."

Tan You smiled. "Let’s just leave it to fate. It’s hard for to develop feelings for soone. I need to get to know them before making a decision."

Zhou Yan was surprised. "Really? You’re leaving it to fate?"

"Yes. Could I trouble the host to press the button for ?" With this, Tan You completely deviated from Yi Ru’s original plan for the show. After all, the original Yi Ru had soone she was interested in—male guest number 9, Zhao Zhao, who was standing right in front of her.

But would Tan You do that? ’Of course she couldn’t choose him.’ That’s just how the world is. It’s considered normal for a guy to pursue a girl, but if a girl shows interest in a guy, she’s easily labeled as desperate and throwing herself at him.

Therefore, Tan You would never let Yi Ru be saddled with the label of soone who throws herself at n.

When the words "leave it to fate" ca out, the studio erupted in an even bigger uproar. In that mont, even more male guests raised their hands—including Zhao Zhao, the very man the original Yi Ru had a crush on.

Zhou Yan called on the most active contestant, male guest #1. "Number 1, what do you want to ask?"

Number 1 was particularly extroverted and humorous, and he spoke bluntly. "I’m curious too. A guest as beautiful as you shouldn’t be lacking suitors, so why did you co here?"

His question was very direct, but because he was smiling, no one found it offensive. They just thought he was a straightforward and humorous person.

Of course, Tan You didn’t get angry. "I can see that you are a humorous and witty man, with superior looks as well. So, why are *you* sitting here? As far as I know, you’ve already been on six episodes of this show."

"With three female guests per episode, you should have t 18 won by now. Have you really not t anyone who caught your eye?" Deftly turning the question back on him, Tan You maintained her faint smile.

Number 1 didn’t expect Tan You to turn the question back on him. He was stunned for a mont. "Well, what can I do? The ones I like don’t like , and I don’t like the ones who like . It’s a real struggle. What about you, our guest?"

Tan You replied, "My social circle is quite small, and my parents love watching dating shows. I figured, a blind date is a blind date, no matter where you have it. And you can’t get more efficient than eting so many male guests at once right here."

If Tan You wanted to be funny, she certainly could be. At the very least, her words once again sent the audience into a wave of laughter. Tan You sighed internally. ’Even if I told a terrible joke right now, these people would probably still eat it up, wouldn’t they? Is this the power of beauty?’

Male guest #5 was more pointed. "A beautiful woman’s social circle is small?"

"Thank you for the complint on my looks," Tan You said calmly. "I run a Hanfu shop. Generally speaking, the people who visit Hanfu shops are young won. The people who design and make Hanfu are also almost all young won. I’m surrounded by won of all different styles."

"My social circle isn’t small, it’s just that there are almost no n in it."

Male guest #6 followed up. "So, can I infer from what you’ve said that you’ve never been in a relationship before?"

"You could say that," Tan You said with a smile, completely unconcerned by the commotion her words caused in the studio.

Zhou Yan glanced at male guests #11 and #13, then suddenly laughed. "Well, male guests #11 and #13 have declared that they absolutely will not date a girl who’s never been in a relationship."

Tan You glanced at them. "Oh. I respect everyone’s choices."

Number 13 protested, "Sister Yan, you can’t do that! Aren’t you just lowering her impression of ?"

Zhou Yan replied, "I’m just giving Yi Ru an early heads-up. Now that everyone has a preliminary understanding of Yi Ru, let’s watch her VCR."

Tan You obligingly turned to the side, also watching Yi Ru’s VCR. ’Thankfully, Yi Ru’s VCR was already fild before I got here. It saved the trouble. I’m really not used to being in front of a cara.’

The scene unfolded before them. In a misty drizzle, the figure of a woman in a cyan qipao gradually approached. Her hair was waist-length, and she held a simple, elegant oil-paper umbrella.

The cara followed the woman across an arched bridge and past a pond, finally stopping in front of a Hanfu shop. Now, the Yi Ru in the video had changed into a different outfit—this ti, it was modern, everyday clothing, making her seem much more like a person from the real world compared to a mont ago.

Tan You watched as the Yi Ru in the video gave a simple introduction of her life, her hobbies, and her description of her ideal partner. As the cara panned to Yi Ru’s face, Tan You on stage revealed a faint smile, showing none of the nervousness or shyness typical of a first-ti guest.

While the VCR played, the studio was completely silent, everyone srized by the screen. Yi Ru’s natural beauty was already stunning, and the director had done an excellent job filming.

He rarely used close-ups, instead employing long shots to portray a classical beauty in a Jiangnan water town. The mood—an elegant, classical, and subtle beauty—washed over the audience.

When the video ended, Zhou Yan was the first to snap out of her trance. She cleared her throat. "I definitely have to wear Hanfu once in my life. It’s just too beautiful. Do you normally like to dress like that?"

Tan You smiled. "Not as formally as today. I only wear a full Hanfu set when I’m at the shop or at gatherings with like-minded friends. The rest of the ti, I’m just like everyone else. We just have slightly different tastes in clothing."
