Watching the screen fill with question marks, Shao Yuye’s lips curled upward uncontrollably.
“Didn’t see that coming, did you?”
Heh!
He hadn’t seen it coming at first either!
Seeing his expression, the ‘Yu Yu’s burst into laughter.
[Damn it, he pulled it off again!]
[The ultimate siscon has officially logged in!]
[LMAO, Brother Ye, do you really love your sister that much?]
But those comments were quickly drowned out by skepticism.
[What kind of international joke is this? Isn’t Shen Wanwan’s dad Shen Rong?]
[So after thinking all night, this is the excuse you came up with? Way too fake.]
[If she’s really your biological sister… then why were you two at each other’s throats on the variety show? Was the whole thing scripted? Were you treating the audience like fools?]
[I’m Brother Ye’s fan, but even my brain is short-circuiting right now…]
[That said… Shen Wanwan and Brother Ye really do look alike. Lots of people pointed that out before. After ‘Petty Revenge Duo’ went viral, plenty of people shipped them as siblings. Just… nobody expected them to actually be siblings.]
Shao Yuye replied calmly,
“To be honest, when I first found out, I was even more shocked than all of you.”
[Yeah… how is that even possible?]
[This is so surreal. I need a logical explanation.]
[The logic is pretty obvious. It’s just like people guessed before—after Brother Ye’s mom divorced Shao Hongyuan, she remarried Shen Rong. Looking at it that way, Shen Rong must’ve treated Wanwan and her mother really well. I suddenly have a great impression of him.]
“The DNA test report is right here.”
Shao Yuye held the report up to the camera, but because his hand was shaking, viewers couldn’t see it clearly. So he simply uploaded a photo of it to Weibo.
Printed clearly on the report was the conclusion:
[The two are biological siblings with the same father and mother.]
The date of the report also perfectly matched the time when netizens had noticed Shao Yuye’s attitude toward Shen Wanwan suddenly becoming much warmer.
[No wonder Brother Ye suddenly started treating Shen Wanwan so much better.]
[Wanwan changed too! She used to be so dramatic and princess-like, but now she’s adorable. That scene where she rode on the back of Brother Ye’s three-wheeler is legendary to me! They both changed for each other.]
[Waaah! Blood really is thicker than water! Thank you, <Extreme Challenge, for reuniting these siblings!]
[Sure enough, family ties can never truly be broken.]
[I just realized Wanwan’s always been so good to Brother Ye too! She went along with his antics during the games, bought him that brooch, played games with him, even fought to get him resources. Sob… Brother Ye finally isn’t all alone anymore.]
Even then, some people still insisted on arguing.
[If she’s really your biological sister, why didn’t you say so sooner? Were you deliberately creating hype? Or did Shen Wanwan just use her money to make all this happen?]
“Who the hell are you? Do I have to file a report with you every time I do something? I just cursed you twice in my head, want me to say those out loud too?”
Beside him, Brother Li was baring his teeth and repeatedly gesturing downward with both hands, signaling Shao Yuye to calm down.
But Shao Yuye clearly couldn’t.
He leaned closer to the camera, his strikingly handsome face filling the frame from every angle.
“I’m making this crystal clear. If you’ve got a problem, come at me. Stop making up nonsense about my little sister all day long. It’s annoying.”
[Brother Ye… I’m actually crying. ‘You can talk about me, but not my sister.’ That’s peak big-brother energy. I love it.]
[Seriously. They’ve already shown the DNA report, and people are still arguing in the face of facts. That’s so irritating.]
[How about this: if you doubt it, you provide the evidence! Even if Brother Ye and Wanwan livestreamed themselves taking another DNA test at the hospital, these people would probably say Wanwan bribed the hospital. Ugh… People like this really need to stop making the internet such a disgusting place.]
After Shao Yuye bluntly shut down the trolls, the atmosphere in the livestream visibly became much more harmonious.
Bai Ling stared at the flood of comments envying Shen Wanwan, her fingernails digging deeply into her palms.
The attention she’d only just managed to stir up had been effortlessly stolen by Shen Wanwan.
Even worse, her Weibo comments had been fairly normal just moments ago.
Now public opinion had completely turned against her.
[You seriously wanted attention that badly?]
[I never thought you’d be this kind of person. What do you gain from ruining Brother Ye?]
[Did you hit on God Zhoutoo? Is he your next target for publicity?]
[I can’t stand you. If you end up on the same team as Brother Ye or God Zhou next round, I’m going to roast you every single time I see you.]
Reading those comments, Bai Ling suddenly remembered the team assignments made at the end of the last episode.
Her face instantly turned deathly pale.
Meanwhile, on Weibo—
@Lin Kexin : [Waaah! So they’re siblings! I actually asked Wanwan in private what her relationship with Brother Ye was. She told me to guess and only said it wasn’t a romantic relationship. After I got home I nearly worried myself into growing white hair! I never, ever imagined they’d actually be brother and sister! Argh!]
Attached was a photo she’d taken of one of her own white hairs.
[HAHAHA! That means it was even harder on you than on us!]
[Wanwan’s actually pretty nice. At least she eliminated one wrong answer for you! Though honestly, I doubt anyone would’ve guessed the real answer.]
[LOL! Now I finally understand why you assigned Wanwan to God Zhou’s team! @ShaoYuye, Brother Ye, this is what happens when you’re famous for treating your sister completely differently from everyone else! LMAO!]
Just then, a slender fair hand entered the livestream frame.
In it were several pomelo segments that had already been peeled.
“I want to eat.”
The sweet female voice instantly sent the chat into a frenzy.
[AHHH! Is that Wanwan?!]
[Wanwan’s with her brother!]
[M-Me too! I want some too!]
Shen Wanwan appeared on camera.
The two faces were strikingly similar, but on closer inspection each had its own distinct charm. Shao Yuye’s features were sharp and well-defined, while Shen Wanwan’s were softer and more graceful.
It seemed as if the Creator had shown this pair of siblings special favor. Both were exceptionally attractive, and the barrage immediately exploded:
[AHHH! Forever shipping ‘Petty Revenge Duo’! Real siblings are the best!! ]
[No wonder when Wanwan was paired with God Zhou before, Brother Ye got so worked up and insisted on getting his sister back. He was afraid God Zhou would steal his family’s precious little cabbage!]
[I totally understand Brother Ye now. I almost got swept up by the rumors before and thought he had romantic feelings for Wanwan…]
While everyone was reacting, Shao Yuye went to wash his hands before returning to peel a pomelo.
His long fingers moved deftly in front of the camera. He even carefully removed every strand of the white membrane from the fruit. The peeled pomelo segments were crystal clear, smooth, and completely free of any pith, making them look incredibly appetizing.
He handed the pomelo to Shen Wanwan.
“Eat slowly.”
[Seeing this… does anyone remember that legendary scene from <Happy Friday>…?]
[I do! I think it was Lin Shan! She was on Brother Ye’s team. The mission was for the male guests to peel an orange and feed it to the female guest—the faster they finished, the better. Brother Ye peeled the orange, then stuffed half of it straight into Lin Shan’s mouth.]
[LMAO. That scene even landed him on the ‘Most Unromantic Male Celebrity’ ranking. I remember he even complained on Weibo afterward that he only got second place and was unhappy about it!]
[HAHAHAHA! I remember! I’ll never forget that!]
[Seriously… he’ll even fight for first place on that kind of ranking!]
Just as the fans were reminiscing, a golden comment floated across the screen.
@LinShan : [Is nobody going to speak up for me?!]
The chat paused for a second before becoming even livelier.
[HAHAHAHA! Is that actually Lin Shan herself?! Lin Shan, you’re here eating popcorn too?!]
[Lin Shan: I would’ve been better off not watching this drama!😤😤]
[LMAO, what is this gigantic double-standard incident?]
[Lin Shan (drawing her sword): So there really isn’t such a thing as a steel-straight man, huh?]
@LinShan : [Shao Yuye, act cute right now and I’ll forgive you.]
[HAHAHA! Act cute? Impossible! Brother Ye would never act cute in this lifetime!]
Reality proved the ‘Yu Yu’s right.
Shao Yuye snorted.
“You ate too slowly. I still haven’t settled the score with you for making our team lose.”
[HAHAHAHA! Brother Ye, you can’t blame Lin Shan for that! She’s a girl, she had to maintain her image!]
[So in the second round Brother Ye became the one eating the fruit instead, which gave us that legendary speed-eating-orange scene!]
[I remember now! I’m dying! Can the production team please stop pairing him with female partners in the future? He doesn’t deserve one!]
At that moment, Shen Wanwan, who had been quiet the whole time, suddenly spoke.
“Brother, can you act cute?
“I want to see it too.”
“…”
Whenever she looked at him with those innocent, expectant eyes, Shao Yuye had absolutely no resistance.
Under the table, he gently nudged her.
“Quit messing around.
“There are so many people watching!”
Shen Wanwan smiled with interest and encouraged him.
“Just once?”
The barrage immediately joined in:
[That’s right! Do it! Do it!]
[Brother Ye! Do one! Brother Ye! Do one!]
“…”
Beside him, Shen Wanwan had already started playing an adorable background tune.
The entire screen filled with laughter and excited comments.
Shao Yuye muttered with obvious reluctance,
“I seriously don’t know how to act cute.”
Then, matching the beat of the music, he raised both hands beside his head in a double peace-sign pose. As if it were pure muscle memory, the corners of his lips obediently curved into a smile.
The chat completely lost it.
[HAHAHAHAHA!!]
[Brother Ye, so this day has finally come!]
After finishing the pose, Shao Yuye immediately covered his face with both hands. Even the tips of his ears had turned bright red.
“Alright, alright. I really don’t know how to act cute.”
[Brother Ye, don’t spoil your sister this much!]
[HAHAHAHA! So cute! So cute!]
[Before Wanwan asked: “Act cute? What’s that? Never happening in this lifetime.”
After Wanwan asked: “Act cute? If my little sister wants to see it, then I’m absolutely doing it today!”]
@LinShan : [*Woof*! Kicking over this bowl of sibling dog food!!]
Shen Wanwan casually picked up a small segment of the pomelo her brother had peeled earlier and popped it into his mouth.
Shao Yuye instantly lowered his hands, looked at the camera, and beamed proudly.
“I’d like to tag all my former teammates from here.
“Having a little sister is the greatest happiness.
“Oh, right—I forgot none of you have little sisters.
“My apologies.”
[Hahaha, Brother Ye, you’ve really done it!]
[With a thunderous boom from the heavens, the ultimate siscon has made his dazzling entrance~]
[Brother Ye, just wait. Everyone’s roasting is definitely already on the way! Hahahaha!]
Sure enough, it didn’t take long before the other members of ON1E all reposted Shao Yuye’s acting cute video—
@YuCheng : [Yo, this mutt actually has quite a unique way of acting cute. (video.mp4)]
@LiangJing : [I’m dying. If anyone hasn’t seen this video today, I’ll be heartbroken. (video.mp4)]
@XuJunning : [I heard this guy is supposed to be our group’s cold and cool member. (video.mp4)]
@LinXia : [HAHAHAHA! I’m officially stepping down as the group’s ‘cute representative’ so this guy can take over! (video.mp4)]
@YuJinyan : [“Oh, I really don’t know how to act cute.” (video.mp4)]
@ZhuYun : [I honestly don’t even know how to judge this. (video.mp4)]
