Do You Still Hate Her? 21 – So it was this kind of mortal enemy

Next, the sixth turn was Shang Lu’s, and the seventh was Ye Lu.

Before they reveal their cards, the production team specially reminded them : “The remaining two are the most special ones because everyone else is doing solo shoots, but the two Teachers who draw these two cards will do a duet shoot.”

[Ahhh, Shang Lu and Ye Lu! I want to see!]

[Even though Shang Lu denied her relationship with Ye Lu in the recording with Xia Yuan, it doesn’t stop me from being excited!]

Shang Lu and Ye Lu exchanged a glance. They both took out the cards they drew from the envelope, glanced at them, and then faced the camera.

The card Shang Lu drew had the word ‘Rabbit’ written on it.

The card Ye Lu drew had the word ‘Mortal Enemy’ written on it.

What Ye Lu drew was the only card that has words unrelated to animals written.

Fans were excited.

[Mortal enemy? That word sounds so thrilling!]

[Get ready to shiver with excitement!]

The staff first brought Shang Lu’s outfit, not a plush costume, but a red Hanfu, paired with furry rabbit ears and cute little lanterns, giving a quite festive look.1

Shanglu took the equipment and then looked at Ye Lu uncertainly, asking, “Are you Wu Gang or Chang’e?”

[Surprisingly, it’s the Jade Rabbit, hahaha!]

[But I really want to see it. Shang Lu looks great in red, who understands?]

[I also want to ask about this regarding Shang Lu. What should be the mortal enemy of the Jade Rabbit?]2

Ye Lu was also puzzled. The production team did not reveal his costume at this moment. Instead, they had everyone follow their respective stylists to change clothes and do makeup.

One hour later.

Shang Lu put on a cute Jade Rabbit hanfu. Apart from being a bit hot, there were no other flaws with this outfit. The red color complemented her fair skin, and the furry rabbit ears reduced the aggressiveness of her face, unexpectedly combining cuteness quite well, even beyond Shang Lu’s own expectations.

The fans loved it.

[Ahhh, what wife? This is my daughter!]

[I’m becoming a mom fan directly! So cute, so sweet, my darling, mwah mwah!]

[Shang Lu’s adaptability is too strong! She can handle any style very well. I love it, wuwuwu]

At this moment, the staff informed Shang Lu : “Teacher Ye is already in makeup and waiting. Teacher Shang, please go over quickly. The shoot is about to start.”

“Okay.” Shang Lu responded and then followed the staff to another room.

During this time, she met Xu Ze in the corridor.

Xu Ze was unusually dressed in very vibrant colors to match the basic characteristics of a peacock, but he managed to carry it off with his face and didn’t look strange. Instead, it added a touch of male beauty that was rarely seen in him.

Of course, if he didn’t have that feathered prop behind him, he might look even more handsome.

After the two exchanged greetings, they brushed past each other, and then Shang Lu was accidentally hit.

Xu Ze stopped in his tracks, looking a bit bewildered at her.

Shang Lu held her arm, waving to him to show that she was fine, but couldn’t help asking, “Why did you suddenly opened your display?”

Xu Ze : “…I’m sorry.”

So, before leaving, Shang Lu kindly helped Xu Ze close the spread-out feathered prop behind him.

[Xu Ze’s display actually fanned out as he brushed past Shang Lu! I can’t stop laughing.]

[As we all know, the peacock’s display is a courtship behavior (I made that up).]

[I don’t care! This isn’t a prop! It’s real! That’s his display!]

[Shang Lu : (closing the feathered prop) Politely declining, oh]

[If Shang Lu didn’t help him put it back, this scene wouldn’t be so funny, hahaha]

However, when Shang Lu arrived in the empty room for the shoot, she didn’t see Ye Lu.

Shang Lu looked at the staff in confusion and asked, “Where’s Ye Lu?”

The staff pointed to the stage in the other corner of the room and said, “Teacher Ye is over there.”

Shang Lu : “?”

Shanglu looked over, but didn’t see anyone. Instead, there was a green, round… enormous turtle shell on the stage?

Doubtfully, Shanglu walked over and bent down to knock on the shell. Very politely, she asked, “Is anyone home?”

The shell trembled slightly from the knock, then slowly turned and revealed from within…

The head of Ye Lu.

The young man’s face was full of frustration as he said, “What kind of mortal enemy is this? I think they’re playing me!”

A twitch appeared at the corner of Shang Lu’s lips.

Because Ye Lu looked so sad, she rarely resisted the urge to mock his current appearance. She could only replay the sad events of the past twenty years in her mind, just to hold back her laughter.

But the netizens didn’t need to restrain themselves.

[Hahaha, a turtle! How could Ye Lu be a turtle?]

[So, ‘mortal enemy’… was referring to the turtle and hare race? Now I understand the program team.]

[Haha, this appearance is completely different from what I imagined. Ye Lu looks so sad, but I’m laughing so loudly.]

However, in that moment of eye contact :

Ye Lu sensed that Shang Lu wanted to mock him, so he angrily…

Retreated his head into the turtle shell.

He didn’t want to face this world.

He wanted to escape from it all.

At the location of the tortoise shell probe, there is a zipper. Ye Lu said, “Help me zip up the zipper from the outside.”

“Okay,” the helpful citizen Xiao Shang obediently did as instructed.

Summarized by netizens:

[Ye · Sealed Heart, Locked Love · Lu]

Just at this moment, footsteps sounded at the door, and Lin Yanyan appeared wearing a furry panda suit.

“Lu~ Lu—”

Lin Yanyan playfully called out the name of Shang Lu, then raised her panda paw and asked her, “Am I cute?”

“Super cute,” Shang Lu praised Lin Yanyan as she got up, then waved at her, “Come over here, let me touch.”

“Okay!” Lin Yanyan agreed happily, her actions in the doll costume were also quite lively. She ran towards Shang Lu like a ball, incredibly adorable.

However, as she was running, Lin Yanyan noticed something very strange.

Wait… why is there such a big tortoise shell in front of Shang Lu? What is that ugly thing? It’s so scary!

Upon seeing this tortoise shell, Lin Yanyan tried to stop herself and stumbled to a halt. But because the panda suit was too bulky, she couldn’t steady herself and ended up falling to the ground. Her foot kicked forward suddenly—

And hit the tortoise shell.

Following a furious roar from Ye Lu, the tortoise shell also rolled off the platform.

Unsteadily, Ye Lu’s back made contact with the ground. At this moment, she couldn’t get up at all and could only struggle to turn over inside the tortoise shell, resembling a wobbling roly-poly toy.

Sitting on the ground, Lin Yanyan stared blankly with wide eyes and an open mouth. Clearly, she hadn’t quite grasped the situation.

It’s really strange. How can this tortoise shell still curse at people?

[Why has everything turned out like this in the end? Ye Lu, what a tragedy, hahaha]

[The three of them seem to possess a superpower that would make them incredibly ridiculous whenever they appear in the same scene]

[The funniest thing is that Ye Lu asked Shang Lu to help him zip up from the outside, so he can’t get out now, hahaha]

[Who will go and save Ye Lu? I’m laughing so hard]

And Shang Lu covered her eyes with one hand.

It’s truly unbearable to watch—

*Pfft*3
