Forced Cohabitation After a Hit Romance Variety Show with My Rival Actress - Chapter 17

Gu Yuan’s lips curved into a slow, deliberate smile as she spoke, her voice calm and unhurried. “Why would it come undone?”

As she spoke, her hair swayed gently in the water, her fair skin appearing even more luminous and radiant against the rippling waves.

She looked undeniably beautiful, but her words were infuriating.

Chi Yu gritted her teeth. “How would I know why?!”

The playful currents swirled around her, lifting the corners of her clothes. Chi Yu hastily used Gu Yuan’s body to shield her from exposure.

In the distance, a jet ski spun wildly across the turquoise sea, leaving a long plume of water in its wake—and dragging a screaming, sputtering figure behind it.

Lu Wenrui: “Aaaah! Glug glug… Ah! Stop! Glug glug glug…”

She seemed to have fallen off the jet ski. Several coaches swam toward her to rescue her, but she continued paddling frantically toward the jet ski, still crying.

Just as she oriented herself and took a few strokes, the jet ski veered in another direction. She wailed even louder, “Sisters, wait for me… Glug glug…”

Bullet Comments:

Wow, did I just see another group in the background behind Gu Yuan and Chi Yu?

Hahaha, dying of laughter! It really is another group! Li Tianyin’s on a jet ski, passenger count: -1!

Poor Xiao Rui! She’s been chasing after them the whole time, swimming and gulping water. I shouldn’t be laughing, but I can’t help it!

The other group is great too! I was just watching President Lin’s team—you can see Gu Yuan and Chi Yu flying through the water in each other’s arms. It’s so beautiful I had to switch over!

Same here! I’ve been flipping back and forth between the streams. Plus, they’re each other’s background characters, which makes it even more interesting!

Forget it, I’m sticking with Gu Yuan and Chi Yu. Did Chi Yu’s clothes come undone or something?

Whoa, even more exciting? I’m camping out on this stream!

Me too! Let my Rui Rui float around for a bit longer, haha!

The jet ski behind them continued to race across the water, its wake spraying a curtain of mist that caught the sunlight, forming a faint rainbow in Gu Yuan and Chi Yu’s wake.

Chi Yu clung tightly to Gu Yuan, her entire body straining with effort.

Chi Yu gritted her teeth and began to act coy. “Sister, give me a hug.”

Her doe-like eyes, shimmering with water droplets, held a captivating, almost bewitching allure.

The waves pushed Gu Yuan away slightly, but Chi Yu pressed herself against her again, throwing her arms around her neck with the same force as before, nearly bruising her chest.

Her small face, already pale, lost even more color.

The immediate crisis: her swimsuit had come undone!

For this activity, both of them were supposed to wear life jackets.

With the orange-red life jacket strapped on, even if her swimsuit failed, it wouldn’t be noticeable. She could simply slip ashore unnoticed and find a secluded spot to fix it.

But earlier, overconfident, she had told the coach she had extensive experience in extreme water sports and claimed to have a freediving certification, allowing her to dive twenty meters without scuba gear. To look better for the cameras, she had insisted on skipping the life jacket.

Besides, they were in a shallow area, with fine white sand beneath the turquoise water.

It was indeed too shallow to drown anyone, but it was certainly deep enough to embarrass someone.

Once the cameras captured this scene, Chi Yu would undoubtedly become famous on the dating reality show.

Gu Yuan’s question still echoed in her ears: “Why did it come undone?”

Chi Yu stubbornly retorted, “I’m still developing.”

“Hmm?” Gu Yuan replied.

After speaking, Chi Yu simply tilted her head, a strand of hair falling to sway in the water rippling across her shoulder.

“How old are you this year?”

Feeling the arm around her waist begin to relax again, Chi Yu immediately pressed down firmly with both hands.

Her face flushed crimson, and she momentarily forgot how Gu Yuan could possibly not know her age. She declared emphatically, “I’m 21!”

Gu Yuan’s long eyebrows arched slightly, feigning surprise. “Oh, 21 already?”

“……”

As Chi Yu clung tightly to Gu Yuan, treading water and still pondering what was wrong with being 21, Gu Yuan’s icy lips had already pressed against Chi Yu’s burning earlobe.

Her breath, as fragrant as orchids, whispered softly, “Don’t be discouraged. It’s still possible to develop even at 21.”

“……”

Chi Yu’s doe-like eyes widened in shock as she turned to stare blankly at Gu Yuan.

Was she implying Chi Yu was small?!

Where was she small?!

But Gu Yuan’s face remained expressionless, as if the words she had spoken and the events that had just transpired were nothing more than fleeting illusions.

Her complexion was serene as she tilted her chin slightly, her gaze lowered as she looked at Chi Yu.

After a moment, her jade-like hands gently withdrew from Chi Yu’s grasp, patting Chi Yu’s fair cheek with water-dampened fingers.

“Be good. I’m leaving now. Enjoy your swim.”

“……”

Chi Yu narrowed her eyes and yanked Gu Yuan back, pressing herself against her with renewed force.

This time, the contact was fierce and unrestrained, so forceful that the soft points of contact between them were distorted.

A splash erupted, churning the water into frothy waves that surged between them.

The spray stung Chi Yu’s eyes, coating her long lashes with tiny droplets.

Yet she didn’t blink, letting the water wash over her face and eyes as she glared at Gu Yuan. She reached out and wrapped Gu Yuan’s hair around the name tag on her chest.

This renowned brand, famous for its hair-wrapping designs, unleashed its full brilliance, ensnaring Gu Yuan completely.

The live stream chat erupted like a cheering crowd:

Holy sh1t, my friend wasn’t lying! Gu Yuan and Chi Yu are really going at it!

What’s with these two? Even when they fight, they do it so beautifully!

Why isn’t there any sound? Is the recording equipment broken?

The waves and water are too loud! I can’t hear anything! What’s the production crew even doing? I only caught the word “develop” and then nothing else! Fix it now!

At that moment, Chi Yu grabbed Gu Yuan by the back of her neck and pulled her into a tight embrace.

This time, she whispered in Gu Yuan’s ear, “You don’t need to develop anymore.”

“You’re not small at all!”
