The show invited 22 male guests in total. Thirteen of them chose her, which was more than half.
Originally, one girl teamed up with one guy. Now, so many guys chose her and many other girls couldn’t find a partner.
Natalie was quite pleased with herself, but the other girls were in an awkward position.
Even the show crew didn’t expect this result.
Gary had suggested scripting it so everyone could be picked, and everyone would be happy.
But Oscar insisted that the essence of live shows was surprises. If everything was planned in advance, they couldn’t claim to be the first completely unscripted show in the variety entertainment industry.
It turned out like this. Natalie with 13 votes, Alice with 4 votes, Chloe with 2 votes. Susan, Emily, and Lily each got 1 vote. The other female contestants got zero votes.
[Even though it’s really pitiful, it’s also pretty hilarious. I feel sorry for the contestants who didn’t get any votes.]
[Natalie is stich a flirt. Are those guys blind? What’s so great about her? Isn’t it just because she has some money? Why do they all like her?]
[Those guys
aren’t dumb. They chose her because of her popularity. Other than being pretty, she has nothing!]
Here we go again with the pointless hate, huh? Being pretty and rich is already the best you can get! If you’re jealous, just say it!]
[You people are so easy to forget. Natalie is good at dancing and boxing and knows many big shots. Aren’t those good things! If the guys don’t choose her, are they picking you? For what? Because you are so cheeky or because you talk trash?]
The comment section quickly turned into a mess.
So many male guests chose Natalie, which really stirred up envy, Fans of the other unchosen female contestants were furious. The public chat was chaotic, but the stage remained peaceful.
Wendy, being a professional host, didn’t panic at all. Instead, she looked at Natalie. “Wow! It looks like Ms. Xavier is very popular. According to the show’s rules, Ms. Xavier, you need to choose a male guest to partner with.”
Natalie stepped forward and took the microphone. She looked at Wendy and asked seriously, “Can’t I choose them all?”
As soon as she said this, the viewers online immediately got more excited.
[That’s Natalie! Kids make choices; adults have it all!]
[Natalie is so shameless. Why does the show still have this kind of woman?]
[You all criticize Natalie, but who among you wouldn’t want to be her? With 13 amazing men in front of you, wouldn’t you just jump on them?]
Wendy laughed and regretfully told her, “I’m afraid not, Ms. Xavier. You have to pick the one you want to partner with the
most
“I just can’t resist handsome guys. I want to work with all of them she sighed deeply, “Rejecting handsome guys is practically a crime.”

[Hahahaha. Natalie is literally speaking exactly what I want to say]
[Isn’t this exactly how I react when I see handsome guys?]
II just wish I could clone myself so I could be with every handsome guy.]
[Seeing Natalie, I finally feel the joy of being an empress who can pick among good-looking men.]
The backstage had a big screen showing the live stream status.

The director urged Wendy through the earpiece. She joked with a smile, “Alright, Ms. Xavier, you can start selecting now. Who will you pick?”
“How about I give them a test?” Natalie said seriously, “Let’s see who can pass the interview”
Oscar was watching the livestream backstage. Hearing what Natalie said, he got very excited.
He thought. This girl truly knows how to make topics. How does she always come up with so many ideas? Everyone gets so excited when she says that she wants to interview. Even as a middle-aged man, I feel a stir of excitement.’
When Wendy was unsure how to respond, she heard Oscar’s excited voice in her earpiece. “Agree to her request.”
Wendy quickly said, “Alright, Ms. Xavier, you can give the test. Now, it’s up to the 13 male guests to win Ms. Xavier’s heart with their abilities!”
Natalie picked up the microphone. Everyone in the audience perked up immediately. She smiled and said, “This is an easy question. Just say one good thing about me. You can’t repeat what others have said.”
This really was easy. They just needed to compliment her. The male guests took their turns to speak one by one.
Guest number 2 said, “Ms. Xavier, you are truly beautiful, kind, generous, and gentle. You’re my dream girl. The moment I saw you, my heart started racing. I’m here just for you.”
He was the first to speak, so he had an advantage. He even gave a few extra compliments.
But Natalie shook her head. “I said one compliment per person and you didn’t listen. I don’t want a man who doesn’t follow rules.”
Guest number 2’s expression changed and he argued, “Ms. Xavier, I just like you too much.”
Natalie shook her head. “Next, guest number 3.”
Guest number 3 had learned the lesson and said, “Ms. Xavier, you have a strong sense of justice.”
Natalie nodded, she didn’t make it hard for him but didn’t say anything else. She gestured for the next one.
Guest number 6 said, “Ms. Xavier, you have a great figure.”
“You’re right,” she said with a smile and pointed to the next guest
Later on, the other guests just repeated the previous compliments in different words, like changing “beautiful” to “pretty,” “elegant,” or “stunning
Natalie was tired of hearing it, and even the viewers got bored.

[Can you use some different words? Is that all the good things you can say about Natalie?]
[These guys are so insincere with their compliments! It all feels so fake.]
[Natalie’s fans still don’t get it? They picked her for her popularity, not because they really like her. Plus, who could genuinely compliment Natalie when she looks like that? They may throw up instead.]
[But the last guy looks so sad! Hey, isn’t that Natalie’s one-day boyfriend?]
Meanwhile, the spotlight was on Leon on stage. He quietly gazed at Natalic.
After a moment, prompted by Wendy, he suddenly smiled, and all his sadness and melancholy vanished, replaced with genuine warmth and restrained passion.
“Ms. Xavier,” he said earnestly, “You sing so beautifully. I really like it.”
As soon as he said that, the room fell silent. Everyone was quiet
It was well known that Natalie always sang off-key. And now, Leon was saying she sang beautifully.
[Bro, no need to lie just to get close to Natalie.]

(Girls, did you see that?! Guys can say the most ridiculous things just to make you happy. Repeat after me, Believe a man’s words, and suffer a lifetime!’]
[Leon, you’ve changed. You’re no longer the honest boy I like!]
[Natalie is laughing. Oh my god, look at her smiling like that. Is she going to choose Leon?]
Just as this comment flashed across the screen, Natalie pointed her finger and said to Leon, “You! I choose you!”
