Do You Still Hate Her? 18 – Really went to romance variety show

Xu Ze laughed out loud and then said, “Sorry.”

Shang Lu remained expressionless and replied, “There’s no need to apologize. You can openly mock them both.”

[Xu Ze, you really have good manners.]

[Xu Ze, don’t hold back. If you want to laugh, just go on laughing. No one can resist, hahaha.]

When the staff informed Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu that the two lottery tickets were only valid for immediate use and would be invalid once they left, they tried to ask the program team to lend them money to make the purchase.

Naturally, the program team rejected their request.

However, they persisted, feeling that they shouldn’t let go of such a great opportunity.

So the program team started to pass the responsibility, saying, “If Teacher Shang Lu agrees to your purchase, then we can lend you the money.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan both looked at Shang Lu with hopeful eyes.

The netizens could see through the director’s team’s intentions.

[Unresolved matters should be handed over to Shang Lu, huh? Program team, aren’t you guys too timid?]

[Hahaha, in this variety show, only Shang Lu can handle Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu!]

[Shang Lu’s expression looks so speechless, hahaha]

[Shang Lu : The last time I was this speechless was when you two couldn’t solve the tangram puzzle and insisted there was a problem.]

Shang Lu couldn’t be bothered to explain anything to them, so she directly handed over her lottery ticket as well.

Lin Yanyan took it, and Ye Lu leaned over, and then the two of them looked at each other.

“Shang Lu! You should also ask the director team to borrow money quickly! Let’s go together and buy!”

“I didn’t expect the three of us to be so lucky!”

Shang Lu : “….?”

[I’m laughing like crazy!]

[Shang Lu: If you two are sick, go to the hospital! Don’t go crazy here!]

Shang Lu didn’t answer them but turned to Xu Ze and asked, “Have you reached the purchase amount of 88 yuan?”

Seeing Xu Ze nodding, Shang Lu continued, “Then go ahead and draw a prize, let them see how the grand prizes with three slots limited nation-wide can end up with a fourth person.”

Xu Ze followed Shang Lu’s advice and walked over to hand in the receipt, then came back with a lottery ticket.

He tore it open and looked a bit confused, glancing up at Shang Lu.

Before Shang Lu could say anything, Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu leaned in together to look –

[Hahaha, thanks for your patronage!]

[Xu Ze’s luck is really bad, huh? He didn’t even get a consolation prize.]

[Hahaha, Xu Ze actually got a ‘thanks for your patronage’ in this kind of scam.]

[Seemingly lucky people are actually unfortunate, and those who appear unfortunate have actually avoided the scam; that’s the true essence of life!]

[So, compared to Xu Ze, Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan believe they are luckier (definitely).]

As Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan looked back at Shang Lu again, she also turned to the production team and said, “I agree, lend it to them.”

Program team : “???”

Netizens : “!!!”

Lin Yanyan urged directly, “Shang Lu has agreed, what other reasons do you have to refuse?”

The program team was very bewildered, they looked at Shang Lu with doubt, but since they couldn’t slap themselves, they had to lend the money to Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu.

When Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu went to buy the jade together, the staff couldn’t help but ask, “Teacher Shang, what’s your thinking behind this?”

Shang Lu shrugged, “Anyway, they have money, so let them learn a lesson.”

The on-site staff couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Then Shang Lu looked at them again and asked, “Can we add a live broadcast tonight? I heard that live broadcasts can connect with anti-fraud police, right?”

[What are they buying? They’re buying a lesson, hahaha]

[Shang Lu : Actively joining the program team again, she really knows how to stir things up]

[Shang Lu (disdainful) : I really can’t save them, this matter should be handled by professionals]

That night.

The guests of successfully connected to the live broadcast room with the police promoting anti-fraud awareness. Then, from ‘distrust’ to ‘shock’ to finally ‘anger’ when realizing they had fallen into a scam, Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu received a proper education.

After the variety show recording ended on the second day, the two of them reposted the five Weibo posts that Shang Lu had shared with them. These posts included the promotion of an anti-fraud app and a list of one hundred common scams in the market. They both solemnly expressed that they would never impulsively spend like that again and would remember not to be greedy and suffer heavy losses.

Shang Lu, in turn, reposted their promised Weibo posts.

@Shang_Lu(V) : [When you’re away from home, don’t forget to use your brain.]

Fans of Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan left comments under this Weibo post:

[We convey our thanks and apologies to Shang Lu on behalf of our silly kids.]

[Shang Lu, listen to us saying thank you. You’ve really worked hard.]

Some malicious netizens even created a video clips, combining scenes of Ye Lu and Lin Yanyan solving puzzles together in front of the haunted house, Shang Lu tricking them into a fake romance show, and the three grand prize draws of the supermarket lottery. They named it . The video showcased the repeated shocked expressions of Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu and the increasingly expressionless face of Shang Lu, creating a humorous and absurd effect.

Each time, it was a different event, but their expressions remained similar to the previous ones. Shang Lu’s expression, however, evolved from being speechless at the beginning to gradually becoming numb, accepting everything that happened.

[Shang Lu : I’ve gotten used to it, really.]

[Hahaha, I never thought Shang Lu was so smart before. Now it seems it’s all thanks to the friends as comparison!]

[This family really can’t be without Shang Lu. Otherwise, with the intelligence of these two, they would be easily fooled and left with nothing.]

[If I were to engage in fraud in the future, I’d definitely target these two. Clients who are both wealthy and easily fooled are not easy to find.]

[The zombies caught Lin Yanyan and Ye Lu, but the zombies are very disappointed because— they have no brains!]

And this week, taking advantage of Shang Lu and Ye Lu’s popularity, SN’s official account released the official version of their MV.

In the MV, Ye Lu plays the role of a sunny high school boy, while Shang Lu plays the role of a top-scorer female student.

Their love story, from acquaintance to falling in love, exudes a youthful and beautiful atmosphere without being explicitly depicted. Instead, it is conveyed through the transitions of various scenes and symbolic meanings, pushing the nostalgia of high school life to the extreme.

The song is sung by Ye Lu and Yu Su. Ye Lu is the lead vocalist, and his voice sounds completely different when he’s not being influenced by anyone – it becomes gentle and tender. Yu Su is responsible for the rap part in the later section of the song, which adds to the romantic atmosphere of the song with its light and cheerful rhythm.

As a result, after the MV was officially released, it gained immense popularity. Countless netizens praised how Shanglu and Ye Lu perfectly portrayed a school couple through this few-minute video!

[Ah, they are such a perfect match! Can we get a director to watch them? Let’s package them directly into a campus idol drama!]

[I vaguely remember Ye Lu once said he’s an idol and won’t act, but I really want to see him act.]

[Is it just a few minutes? Not enough to satisfy us! He should make a movie out of this drama-clad story!]

[They match so well, I’m tired of saying it over and over again!]

At this moment, Yu Su’s fans are feeling very unhappy. Although they don’t have as many fans as Ye Lu, they are showing an attitude of ‘one man against ten.’

[This song was written and composed by our Yu Su, and it’s said that he invited Shang Lu to collaborate. How could it be Ye Lu who got shipped with Shang Lu?]

[Yu Su went to the variety show, and he seems more cheerful now. I really wish he could spend more time with Shang Lu.]

[I was really moved by their interactions on the variety show, it felt like a scene from a redemption novel.]

[He may seem ordinary to others, but he’s the most shining star in her eyes. In the entire entertainment industry, I can only accept Yu Su and Shang Lu being together.]

[Are you kidding me? The handsome guy in Shang Lu’s eyes is Yu Su, not Ye Lu. Let’s respect each other’s aesthetics, shall we?]

[This is our sister-in-law! You guys better not look! She belongs to us, she’s ours, ours!]
