The Delicate Cannon Fodder Is Coveted By Her Ex-Husband In The Love Show Chapter 19
byChapter 19: Coming to Chase My Wife
Chapter Nineteen
Excluding Su Jin, most of the participants for this season of This Is Love were either ordinary people or semi-celebrities. While previous seasons had featured celebrities, they were usually just obscure idols.
Therefore, when Xia Mu suddenly saw Gu Minghe, he initially thought he was there to be a guest in the observation room.
When the show is formally edited and released, they invite celebrities to sit in the observation room to comment. But those guests watch from a studio; there’s no need for them to come to the villa for a live viewing, right?
It wasn’t until a staff member introduced Gu Minghe as the eighth male guest for this season that everyone snapped out of their daze, looking at him in disbelief.
Words like “Top Star,” “Aloof,” and “Elder Brother and Sister-in-Law” flashed through their minds, all connecting back to Gu Minghe. Only then did they truly believe that the new arrival was actually Gu Minghe!
In that case… the person who went on a date with Pei Huaixue today was also him?!
In an instant, everyone’s eyes fell on Pei Huaixue, and naturally, they couldn’t ignore the large hand resting on Pei Huaixue’s waist.
Gu Minghe’s palm was large and easily encompassed Pei Huaixue’s slender waist.
Due to his urgency in saving him, Gu Minghe’s movements weren’t gentle. His five fingers roughly gripped Pei Huaixue’s waist, abruptly lifting his shirt hem and exposing a small section of soft, snow-white skin underneath.
Against the backdrop of Gu Minghe’s healthy, tanned complexion, the white skin was dazzlingly bright.
Witnessing this highly impactful scene, everyone finally regained their senses.
What was going on?
Did Pei Huaixue manage to win over Movie King Gu after just one date?
Otherwise, why would they be so intimate?
Realizing the situation, Pei Huaixue quickly pressed his small hands against Gu Minghe’s firm chest, signaling him to let go.
Gu Minghe’s expression remained unchanged, but his large hand reluctantly loosened its grip.
The soft, warm sensation left on his fingertips made him savor the feeling repeatedly in his heart.
After stepping out of Gu Minghe’s embrace, Pei Huaixue immediately put distance between them. Standing far away, he said, “Movie King Gu, thank you for catching me just now. Otherwise, I would have fallen.”
This instantly explained why he and Gu Minghe had been embracing.
Everyone suddenly understood.
At the same time, they felt a bit ashamed because of Gu Minghe’s words.
Jiang Leran quickly apologized to Pei Huaixue: “Xiaoxue, I’m sorry. I wasn’t paying attention and accidentally bumped into you. Are you hurt?”
Pei Huaixue reached up and rubbed his slightly red forehead. Feeling that the pain had subsided, he shook his head and said, “I’m fine. Just be careful when you argue next time, and try not to hurt innocent people.”
Xia Mu also offered various apologies, showing a very good attitude about admitting fault.
However, the moment he lowered his head, his eyes were filled with intense jealousy.
Ah, why did Pei Huaixue get to go on a date with Gu Minghe? How could Pei Huaixue be so lucky? He just happened to draw the lot for Gu Minghe’s first date on the dating show!
Xia Mu had originally been fishing between Zhou Jingyuan and Jiang Leran, but upon seeing Gu Minghe, his heart was now completely set on him.
It was no joke—whether in terms of looks, wealth, or social status, Gu Minghe completely overshadowed the other two!
Only Gu Yanchen could compete with him.
But Gu Yanchen already had Su Jin, and Gu Minghe was still single!
Xia Mu imagined how glorious it would be if he became the Movie King’s sister-in-law. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, wishing he could win Gu Minghe over immediately.
Shen Zhimian, who had been pretending to be a mushroom in the corner: Ah, dating is indeed difficult, but being on the show has provided a lot of material for my comics, so it’s a good harvest =v=

The live stream viewers watched the entire drama unfold, with the bullet comments scrolling non-stop.
First, Pei Huaixue was accidentally drawn into the love triangle involving Xia Mu and Zhou Jingyuan, and then Pei Huaixue angrily slapped Zhou Jingyuan. The excited onlookers in the live chat immediately went wild.
-Zhou Jingyuan and Jiang Leran argued and faked fighting for so long without actually hitting anyone, but Pei Huaixue came right in and slapped Zhou Jingyuan. This proves Pei Huaixue is the real fierce Gong!
-Wow, good hit! I’ve been annoyed with Zhou Jingyuan for a long time. One slap isn’t enough.
-Hahaha, help, Zhou Jingyuan is a bit of a pervert. He wasn’t even angry after being slapped by Pei Huaixue. Judging by his expression, he looks like he wants another one.
-Xuexue Wife is so spicy! Why reward Zhou Jingyuan? Hit me, hit me, okay?!
-Zhou Jingyuan, did you say thank you!!!
Just as they were enjoying the show, the two people who had been faking it suddenly started genuinely wrestling, dragging Pei Huaixue into it. When Pei Huaixue was knocked, the bullet comments were startled.
-Hey, if you’re going to fight, watch where you’re going!
-Pei Huaixue has such thin arms and legs. Wouldn’t he be badly hurt by that push?
-Even though I don’t like Pei Huaixue, he was truly innocent and unlucky in this part…
-Ahhhhhh holy crap! Gu Minghe!!!! Hero saving the beauty!!!
The moment Gu Minghe appeared on screen, the entire live stream erupted.
The man’s tall, 1.9-meter frame tightly embraced Pei Huaixue, preventing the person in his arms from suffering even the slightest injury.
His face was cold, and his expression was clearly not to be trifled with.
His large hand forcefully restrained Pei Huaixue’s slender waist, like a lion marking its territory, protecting its prey within its domain.
-My god, this size difference, height difference, and skin tone difference—I suddenly feel like I’m shipping this?
-Pei Huaixue looks so delicate in Gu Minghe’s arms!
-Gu Minghe, aren’t you holding him a little too tightly?
-Are these the same two people who, during their date earlier, looked like they wanted to meet across the Milky Way? How did they end up hugging in the blink of an eye?
-I can only say that Gu Minghe has great character. Despite how Pei Huaixue treated him, he still helped him out when he was in trouble, letting bygones be bygones.
-Oh, come on, can we stop shipping everything? Gu Minghe just happened to save someone. If anyone was about to fall, he would have gone to help, okay?
-The fact that they separated so quickly shows that there’s no spark between them!
The bullet comments continued their noisy debate until Gu Yanchen and Su Jin returned from their date in the evening, at which point the sweet CP comments started flooding in again.
–
When Gu Yanchen returned to the cabin and saw the uninvited guest on the large living room sofa on the first floor, his brow twitched.
He almost thought he had walked into the wrong place.
Could someone tell him why Gu Minghe was here?
Gu Minghe looked up and cast a challenging gaze at Gu Yanchen: “Elder Brother, Sister-in-Law, you’re back.”
Su Jin, standing behind Gu Yanchen, suddenly blushed. Covering his slightly hot face, he said awkwardly, “Minghe, your brother and I are not yet…”
Hearing this, Gu Yanchen grabbed his hand. “We will be soon.”
At his words, Su Jin’s face burned even redder.
Gu Minghe smiled, his eyes cold. “Then consider this an early congratulations. Elder Brother, since you already have a wife, you should be more discreet when you’re out. Don’t flirt around, or I worry that Sister-in-Law might overthink things.”
Gu Yanchen’s brow twitched harder when he heard this.
This kid was taking a jab at him.
He also smiled faintly. “Don’t worry. I’m not the kind of person who can’t hold onto his wife.”
The two brothers exchanged glances, sparks seemingly flying between their eyes.
-Wow, what’s going on? These two brothers don’t seem to have a good relationship.
-I feel like there’s a hidden meaning in their words!
-Who cares? Our Gu Su CP is making great progress! Gu Yanchen called Su Jin his wife!!
-Hahaha, Gu Minghe’s ‘Sister-in-Law’ sounds so nice.
-Gu Minghe is right. Men should be discreet. Gu Yanchen is constantly getting entangled with Pei Huaixue. What kind of behavior is that? I feel so bad for Su Jin.
-It turns out Gu Minghe joined the show to keep an eye on his Elder Brother and help him deal with Pei Huaixue, right?
The bullet comments speculated wildly.
Just then, Pei Huaixue, who had been called away by the production team for a solo interview, returned.
Seeing that Gu Yanchen was also there, he subconsciously wanted to cling to him. Before his hands could even link with Gu Yanchen’s arm, he was stopped by a cold gaze fixed firmly on him. His hands froze mid-air, afraid to move forward.
Pei Huaixue nervously swallowed.
Being stared at by Gu Minghe like that, he felt unable to perform.
Gu Yanchen turned around and looked at the dumbfounded Pei Huaixue standing there. He understood the situation and smoothly pushed him toward Gu Minghe. “Why are you standing there like an idiot? Go sit on the sofa for a bit.”
Pei Huaixue stumbled, nearly falling headlong into Gu Minghe’s arms.
Gu Minghe had already subtly reached out, ready to catch his wife, but Pei Huaixue slammed on the brakes, stopping his steps a full pace away from Gu Minghe.
“Gu Minghe, the director called you for your solo interview.”
With that, he darted away.
Gu Yanchen looked at the stiff-faced Gu Minghe and couldn’t help but mock him. “How exactly did you offend him?”
He was avoiding him like a debt collector.
Gu Minghe frowned but said nothing.
He got up and went to record his solo interview.
–
The solo interviews were not live-streamed. In the room, Gu Minghe sat in front of a pile of equipment, answering the questions prepared by the production team.
“Movie King Gu, this is your first time participating in a dating show. May I ask why you wanted to join?” Xiao Shu asked, trying to keep her tone controlled.
Gu Minghe’s voice was calm: “I came to chase someone.”
“Chase, chase someone?!” Xiao Shu was shocked. The person he was chasing couldn’t possibly be… Pei Huaixue’s image appeared in her mind, and she couldn’t help but ask, “Is it convenient to reveal who?”
Gu Minghe: “Pei Huaixue.”
“!!!”
It really was him!
Xiao Shu nearly cried out loud.
There were only two or three staff members in the solo interview room, and all the recorded content was covered by non-disclosure agreements, only to be broadcast when the show officially aired later.
Therefore, the secret that Gu Minghe joined the dating show for Pei Huaixue was known only to these few people.
Xiao Shu was incredibly excited.
However, she instantly remembered that during Pei Huaixue’s solo interview earlier, when she asked him if he had anything to say about his date with Movie King Gu today, Pei Huaixue had looked troubled: “I wish it hadn’t been him.”
Xiao Shu suddenly felt a little sorry for Gu Minghe.
Pei Huaixue didn’t seem interested in him at all.
“As a new guest, you can choose one male guest to view his text message history from the past few days. Whose would you like to see?”
Xiao Shu felt her question was pointless. Sure enough, Gu Minghe chose Pei Huaixue.
They saw that all of Pei Huaixue’s text messages were sent to the same person.
Gu Yanchen.
“Brother, thank you for taking care of me today (heart)”
“Brother, the wind is strong today, be careful not to catch a cold.”
“Brother, which is better looking, the moonlight or me?”
“Brother, when will you finally notice me?”
Gu Minghe’s eyes darkened instantly.
