Chasing Tides

"Baby, there is a program that invites the two of us to participate together."

"What program?"

"One plus one is greater than love."

"Don't go."

The conversation above took place less than a week after the two had just moved into their new home.

When Ning Lan came out of the shower, she saw Sui Yi cleaning the bow he gave her. She wiped it several times tirelessly, and even applied maintenance oil on the piano cloth.Ning Lan rolled around on the bed a few times, and finally couldn't help it. She stopped and poked Sui Yi's ass with her toes: "Why didn't you ask me why I didn't go?"

Sui Yi put down his qin bow, grabbed his troublesome foot, and said with a smile: "You don't want to have your reasons, and forcing you to give reasons, doesn't it mean that you are unhappy?"

Ning Lan's ankle was held by warm hands, and her heart also warmed up.

The next morning, Ning Lan received a call from Fang Yu while researching the newly bought coffee powder.

"One plus one is greater than love sent you an invitation?" Fang Yu asked straight to the point.

"It seems so." Ning Lan clamped the phone around his neck and continued to work, "Yesterday Sui Yi mentioned something to me."

"Did you promise?"

"No."

Fang Yu raised his voice, "Why didn't you agree?"

Ning Lan sniffed the newly bought coffee powder. Compared with the previous stock, it did have such a special sweet fragrance. He licked a mouthful and tasted it. He frowned from the bitterness and said vaguely to the phone: "I'm not Star, what are you doing on that show?"

"Captain, yes, you used to be too!" Fang Yu persuaded him, "This show is not easy to get on. After the first two seasons became popular, the requirements for selecting guests have become more and more stringent. The first season can still bring money into the show. Now It is said that Heavenly King X invited the producer to dinner and wanted to bring his new wife on the show, but they refused."

Ning Lan still panicked after drinking her saliva, frowning, "Heavenly King X? The one who abandoned his wretched wife last year?"

Fang Yu sighed: "Well, there is indeed a reason for being rejected, but this show is really not easy to get on, and being on the show is also a great boost to the captain's career. Now the most popular idol with positive energy for family harmony, just helps He transformed. I heard that filming is not hard, just eating, drinking and having fun, and earning money..."

Ning Lan's brain ached from his chanting: "Since it's so good, you and your family are on the same page."

There was a moment of silence, Ning Lan sensed the delicate atmosphere, and wanted to change the subject, Fang Yu said, "I really want to follow him, but we haven't received a certificate, and we haven't made it public, so there's no chance if we want to."

His tone was clearly relaxed, but Ning Lan could hear a hint of helplessness in it.

"You don't know how envious I am that you two can hold hands in the streets openly, and you can also be on the show as a family... Hey, let's not talk, I just haven't seen you for too long, I want to watch it on TV you."

Fang Yu is studying music in country M at the moment, and he said he would go for half a year, but it's only been less than two months.

Ning Lan guessed that there was a problem between him and Lu Xiaochuan.Fang Yu's outlook on life is black and white, and he holds back what he doesn't want to say, and won't reveal half of it, so Ning Lan didn't ask, and just told him to take care of himself over there.

When Sui Yi came back in the evening, Ning Lan let him taste coffee first, and after getting an exaggerated expression of "I've never had such a good coffee", she glared at him: "You say everything I do is delicious, so when will Can we make progress?"

He plans to open his own coffee shop, the store has been selected, the contract has been signed, and he is waiting for the owner to make room for him to go in and do decorations, so he has been researching coffee and desserts for a while, and Sui Yi has done his part. Food testers.

"It's really delicious." Sui Yi boasted sincerely, "It's rich in fragrance and pure in taste..."

Ning Lan stuffed a muffin into his mouth: "Okay, I understand."

Sui Yi swallowed the calorie-filled dessert for love, and was thinking about getting on the treadmill for an extra half hour later when she heard Ning Lan say, "Do you want to go to that show? If you want to go... let's go Bar."

In midsummer, the third season of "One Plus One is Greater than Love" started to be recorded in a villa in the suburbs of the capital. The theme of the first episode was "Sweet Home", that is, the three groups of guests ate and lived together for two days and two nights.

The program team arranged a car and took the two of them to the scene early in the morning.Sui Yi and Ning Lan were the first to arrive. They went upstairs and chose a room. They didn't bring much luggage, and they put it away in less than half an hour.

Ning Lan walked in front, and Sui Yi rubbed his shoulders while walking behind. The two visited the house with great interest.

The hammock on the roof terrace made Ning Lan very happy. He lay on it and dangled happily. Sui Yi bowed to tickle him, and zoomed in on the camera with the photographer. Only then did Ning Lan realize that this was a filming, and hold down Sui Yi Yi fumbled with his hands, blushing and said in a low voice, "There is a camera, don't..."

Sui Yi curled the corners of her lips, imitating him and saying in a breathy voice: "Don't be afraid, they love to shoot this."

The two went around the yard again. The sun was scorching hot outside, and it was unbearably hot even after going out for 5 minutes. After returning to the house, Ning Lan went to the kitchen to see what ingredients were in the refrigerator, and prepared cold drinks for the guests who hadn't arrived yet.

The juicer was buzzing, and the second pair of guests arrived.

"One Plus One Is Greater Than Love" is one of the more simple reality shows in recent years. The guests don't have a script, and they each use their own skills to attract the audience. Before the filming started, the guests didn't even know who else was involved.

The people who came were Guo Hao and his wife Liu Yuqing. Both of them are capable actors with a positive image. When they got married three years ago, they were blessed by the whole people. They are model couples in the eyes of the masses.

Liu Yuqing and Sui Yi once played siblings in a period drama, so they called Guo Hao "brother-in-law" as soon as they met Sui Yi.

Guo Hao is straightforward and has a good impression of Sui Yi. He laughed and responded, took a sip of Ning Lan's juice, and praised: "My brother and sister are very skilled."

Ning Lan and Guo Hao once played brothers with different surnames in "Overturning the Country", but their names were suddenly changed, making them blush.

When the last pair of guests arrived late, Sui Yi and Ning Lan were upstairs discussing what to have for lunch. It was just after 9 o'clock, so there was still time to go shopping and cook.

Ning Lan wanted to cook some big dishes. He guessed that the third pair of guests should also be seniors. The first meal had to be carefully prepared. Sui Yi was afraid of his hard work, so he proposed to go out to eat.Hearing the noise downstairs, they interrupted the discussion and went down to greet them. When they saw someone coming, both of them were stunned.

It was Ji Zhinan who entered the door first, he was empty-handed, he was very happy to see his old friends Guo Hao and Liu Yuqing, the man behind him brought in the suitcase, stood beside him silently, and accompanied him to reminisce with his old friends.

When the three pairs of guests were sitting together on the sofa in the living room and introducing themselves, the stiff atmosphere had been diluted a lot by Guo Hao and his wife.

Not to mention the program group, no one in the entire entertainment industry knew that these two couples had conflicts in private. Fortunately, enough time has passed, and now they are not so embarrassed to be speechless face to face.

According to the routine of the program, the first link is to each show evidence to prove that the relationship between the two is legal.

This seemingly ordinary link has earned a lot of attention in the first two seasons. The guests did not take the usual path. Some brought out the testimony of their father-in-law, wedding videos, children's diapers, and some even brought out the chat records during the proposal. There are a lot of tricks.

It was the turn of the three groups of guests in the third season, and they were all well-regulated and old-fashioned——Guo Hao took out his wedding photo with Liu Yuqing, Ji Zhinan and his spouse Qin Weiyu showed off their wedding rings, Sui Yi and Ning Lan directly took out the marriage certificate.

"You two have just been married for two months?" Guo Hao asked in surprise.

"Didn't I tell you that my younger brother just got his license, and you asked if we could serve wine." Liu Yuqing laughed at his poor memory, "The two of them have known each other for many years, and they debuted as a group before."

Guo Hao praised that the two are destined. Liu Yuqing looked at the age of the two and said in surprise: "I thought the two were about the same, but I didn't expect that the siblings are of the same generation as us."

"You can call me Xiao Ning just like my brother." Ning Lan glanced at Sui Yi as she spoke, "Let's play with each other in the future, without him."

In the entertainment industry, people like Sui Yi who got married so early can be counted on both hands, and they were inexplicably "squeezed out".

With her hands behind her back, Ning Lan gently squeezed his fingertips, as if silently telling him - don't take it seriously.

Ning Lan and Liu Yuqing made the lunch together, Sui Yi helped, and the other three were not good at cooking, so they were arranged to water the flowers and weeds in the yard.

At the dinner table, a few people started exchanging embarrassing stories about cooking. Guo Hao mocked his old friend Ji Zhinan for cooking instant noodles and blowing up the kitchen. Chef's craft.

Ji Zhinan's shortcomings were exposed in public, and he stood up and rolled up his sleeves as if to fight Guo Hao. Qin Weiyu held him down and said to everyone: "He makes tea that tastes good."

As the only outsider present, Qin Weiyu was reticent and serious, so he shocked the scene when he opened his mouth.

Before Ning Lan came here, she made up for the first two seasons. She guessed that the editor would make a big fuss here, maybe they would directly paste the words "love your wife and protect your weaknesses".

After dinner, the three pairs of guests went back to their rooms for a rest.

Sui Yi took the scar removal cream to wipe Ning Lan's hands. The burns on the back of his hands had faded a lot after months of perseverance.

Sui Yi wiped it off for him, then lowered her head and blew. Ning Lan was about to pull her hands away, and signaled the camera on it with her eyes: "It's filming."

Sui Yi looked up following his gaze, and said, "I can do what I am at home here, if you still feel uncomfortable, we won't shoot, go home."

Ning Lan knew that Sui Yi was not talking out of anger, but was really thinking about him, afraid that he would not be able to let go, and that it would be embarrassing for him to meet Ji Zhinan face to face.

"It's okay." Ning Lan shook Sui Yi's hand and comforted him, "I said that I would come to shoot. Don't you also hope that I can go out and meet new friends?"

Sui Yi observed him for a while, seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, and said, "If you don't want to shoot anymore, tell me anytime, don't force it."
