童岁 was surprised.
Jiang Ciyuan had studied finance, which required a high level of mathematical skills—this was understandable. However, no one expected Chi Xingyu to be able to hold on for so long.
In fact, since童岁 met Chi Xingyu, whether in games or otherwise, he was not just someone who was useless aside from gaming. Instead, he performed exceptionally well.
Such individuals, even if they don’t become champions in esports, would still be among the top in other industries.
By the time the competition was halfway through, the show had already trended on social media.
#I’m Watching the Strongest Brain in Romance Variety Shows#
This topic skyrocketed to the top of the trending list, and even when it was late at night, the live stream maintained an audience of 200,000.
—Is romantic variety shows really this intense nowadays?
—Hahaha, my few graduate roommates who never watch variety shows are passionately answering questions in the middle of the night.
—Chi Xingyu, your bad boy persona is collapsing.
—I finished a full cycle of sleeping and came back to find the competition still ongoing. The contestants this time are really putting in the effort.
As the competition reached its climax, Chi Xingyu solved the problem, but he was still a few seconds slower than Jiang Ciyuan, once again taking second place.
When the results were announced, Chi Xingyu’s expression soured.
Actually, it was a great score, but not achieving first place made all of the effort seem pointless.
Everyone present tacitly understood that Jiang Ciyuan would definitely choose to share a room with童岁.
No matter how the others behind him chose, it wouldn’t count.
Even so, during the final selection round,桑彩 and童岁 opted for their original room.
Zhou Siyuan, who chose after童岁, approached桑彩 and said, “Sorry, I’m going to stand here for a bit.”
桑彩 had no choice but to select another room.
Following them, Qin Xiuxian decisively chose to share a room with桑彩; his intention was clear from the beginning—it was only桑彩.
When it was Zhong Yi’s turn, he unsurprisingly chose to stand next to童岁, pushing Zhou Siyuan aside.
Although he could only stand next to童岁 for a moment, he did not miss this opportunity.
Zhou Siyuan could only select another room.
There was still one double room available, but he chose the worst option, a storage room on the third floor.
This surprised the production team. “Is Siyuan trying to give a better room to the other guests?”
This gentle demeanor seemed to echo Zhou Siyuan’s usual persona.
However, Zhou Siyuan replied, “No, I just don’t want to share a room with other guests.”
The production team: “……”
Others: “……”
This was a clear indication that Zhou Siyuan had no interest in anyone other than童岁.
But the three other people present shared a similar mindset, just expressed to different extents.
Zhong Yi, despite being obstinate with words, was constantly slapping his own face with his actions; unfortunately, he couldn’t defend his position and was pushed away by the later-arriving Chi Xingyu.
Zhong Yi felt inexplicably frustrated; he had always been able to get anything he wanted and had never experienced the feeling of winning and losing.
He was used to buying everything he desired with money, but in the romance variety show, he lost this long-held advantage.
Dejected, he walked towards the empty room on the second floor.
The last to choose was Jiang Ciyuan, the winner of the competition, who had the final say.
He got up from the sofa, brushed off a few mild creases from his shirt, and walked over slowly.
Chi Xingyu squinted his eyes.
From the moment Jiang Ciyuan used him to find a dating spot during the day, Chi Xingyu had already been displeased. Now, he was approaching him again.
Jiang Ciyuan remarked, “I’ve made my choice; please move aside.”
Chi Xingyu clenched his hand at his side, the tension in his expression making the air feel strained, causing the production team members to sweat profusely.
If it really came to a fight, they genuinely wouldn’t know whom to help.
Both were major players they couldn’t afford to offend.
Jiang Ciyuan seemed to sense his dissatisfaction and calmly said, “What happened during the day was mutually beneficial. Helping you was also for my own sake.”
He wasn’t doing charity.
“I’ll win it back next time.”
Chi Xingyu dropped this remark before walking to the room Zhong Yi had just chosen.
This competition finally came to an end.
童岁’s popularity was witnessed by everyone.
In the previous two seasons of the show, there had been instances where several guests liked the same person, but it was merely a crush; once they saw it was hopeless, they would turn their attention to someone else.
However, the guests this season were particularly focused.
Even Zhou Siyuan, who looked like a perfect match in terms of appearance, was willing to stay in a small storage room rather than with anyone other than童岁.
So it was no surprise that 童岁 again trended on social media.
Arguments about how exceptional 童岁 is, being fought over by several handsome guys, started to circulate.

The Weibo post featured captured moments of 童岁 from the variety show, unedited but full of natural charm and grace.
The comments exploded:
—Wow, this is the level of beauty that even straight men would find irresistible.
—Where did the production team find such an amazing newcomer?
—I’m gay, just putting it out there: as long as my darling wants to, I’m open for any position!!
—Stop pushing me; I can’t get 童岁’s face out of my head! I’m completely out of it!!
—Please, thank you.
……
童岁 himself was oblivious to his rising online popularity and unaware that his Weibo follower count had surpassed 500,000, rapidly growing.
After the competition ended, it was time for the daily fixed interview segment.
Unlike the previous few days, this time the production team had prepared a ton of questions, clearly taking notice of the hot trend surrounding 童岁.
