Poor Xi Xi
Chapter 636 Lan Qi and Talia's Tacit Clearance
While the question was indeed quite simple, as the host had said, she really hated being left behind, silently and alone.
It had been like that in the Demon Realm. Her father and mother, her great demon friends, even her sister, had suddenly disappeared.
At that time, she had lost everything she had in the blink of an eye.
Earlier, when she and Lan Qi had first gone to the rental workshop of the Card Maker Association at the border of their old home, South Wantina, that guy Lan Qi had run off on his own after blowing up a card, which had made her very unhappy.
Fortunately, he had quickly returned to the workshop.
Thinking about it, Lan Qi was indeed the kind of person who would devote all his energy to his work.
And the female colleague who might have work-related matters with Lan Qi was probably Heberlian.
If he suddenly abandoned her because he received a message from Heberlian, Talia wouldn't be surprised.
She understood the reasoning, but the more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became.
Just as she was feeling a little suffocated, Lan Qi already had an answer on his small blackboard.
[No]
Lan Qi held the small blackboard in both hands. He seemed to sense Talia's gaze; she was staring at his cheek.
"What's wrong?"
Lan Qi asked in confusion.
"Nothing."
Talia replied curtly, turning her head away from him.
Outside the Shadow World, the Cat Boss's eyelids twitched.
It understood Lan Qi.
Lan Qi would do it together, directly entering a dual-threaded mode. That was Principal Lan Qi, who was skilled and bold.
All the regrets and choices in the world were often brought about by a lack of ability, and Lan Qi, with his strong business acumen, was confident in solving problems in the most extreme way.
The camera zoomed in on Loren again.
He grabbed Juliana's wrist and moved it slightly to the left, but the camera followed his face.
Loren looked up at the camera.
Then he shook his head almost imperceptibly.
But the camera still focused on him.
It wasn't until a moment later that the host's voice in the Graffiti Classroom Shadow World sounded again, and the picture switched back to the inside of the Shadow World.
"Question twelve! You're almost at the finish line! Few couples can remain calm and continue to this round!"
The golden honeybee host danced in the classroom and made a new question appear, as if wiping an invisible wall—
[Question 12 (Male): Do you feel happier being with your good brothers than being with the woman beside you?]
"Although this question doesn't seem fatal, the truth may make the person next to you very angry. It's the little things that hurt the most."
"Is that so?"
The players who stopped to watch in the central courtyard discussed.
"Think about it, if your girlfriend knows that you sincerely feel happier being with your male friends, what will she think?"
"That sounds a little scary…"
Talia wasn't surprised by the answer to this question.
She had heard Heberlian say that Frey, the student council president of their Iqlitte Academy, was also Lan Qi's best friend. During their time in the student council, Heberlian was generally responsible for the polite approach, while Lan Qi and Frey were responsible for the forceful approach. The student council had always received 100% positive reviews.
When Lan Qi was with Frey, the smile never left his face.
However.
What Talia couldn't believe was.
[No]
That was what was written on Lan Qi's small blackboard.
The answer was obvious.
Lan Qi felt happier being with Talia than being with Frey.
Talia looked at Lan Qi.
She never expected that in Lan Qi's eyes, being with her would make Lan Qi so happy.
But soon, she understood why this guy was happy.
"You…"
Talia stared at Lan Qi with murderous intent, as if flames were rising from her body.
Lan Qi's hand holding the small blackboard began to tremble, and his tightly closed lips became like a wavy line as he fidgeted.
"…"
The Cat Boss outside the Shadow World didn't know what to say.
It shook its head and looked up, only to see the picture switch to the audience seats in the real world again.
The camera was still focused on Loren.
Sweat poured down Loren's forehead.
This time, he had already changed seats with Juliana twice.
The camera still found him again.
To be honest.
He did feel more relaxed and comfortable with Florence, without having to worry about anything.
If he could, he would talk to Florence every day, and he would be happy to live with Florence.
But the instructor had said that this was normal!
Inside the Graffiti Classroom in the Shadow World.
"You two are unknowingly about to pass the level! Question thirteen!"
The golden honeybee host said energetically. She looked at the question, but before announcing it, she thought for a moment.
"Hmm, before this question, I would like to ask you two, in your future schedules, besides being with the person next to you, have you arranged any private dates with other people?"
The host asked.
Lan Qi and Talia both shook their heads.
Their only confirmed plans were to go to the Posen Kingdom together to supervise the Platinum-level Card Maker exam and buy materials for making new cards.
But they had already guessed that this question was probably related to the new question.
At the same time, the camera once again focused on a certain area in the audience.
"…"
This time, without the camera giving a close-up, the surrounding audience all looked at Loren.
In the center of the screen, the audience in front, behind, left, and right were all looking at Loren.
It was about to rain on Loren's head.
"Loren, are you really that hot?"
Juliana looked up at the sky. She was worried that there was a cloud raining just above Loren's head.
"I, I'm actually okay."
Loren looked at the screen, his hands on his knees, and said without moving.
Juliana could only take out her handkerchief again to wipe the cold sweat from Loren's forehead.
Suddenly, she realized that she was already close to Loren in the camera. She coughed lightly, her cheeks slightly red, and sat up straight, withdrawing her handkerchief.
"Okay, then please look at the question!"
The host's voice sounded again, and the picture returned to the Graffiti Classroom. The golden honeybee slapped the newly obtained question onto the screen. Accompanied by a burst of game sound effects, the text was also pasted on the screen.
[Question 13 (Male & Female): What is the private date you two are most looking forward to in your future schedules?]
[Going to the Posen Kingdom with him to enjoy the food]
[Going to the Posen Kingdom with her to take her to enjoy the food]
Because there was a preliminary question, their answers appeared at the speed of light this time.
The tacit understanding shocked the audience again.
"Oh, let me ask, will your next date have a... feeding session? I see that you two seem to want to do this with each other very much."
The golden honeybee host asked with a wink.
"…"
This question made it impossible for them to answer. They turned their heads away from each other, even wanting to die a little.
"Fufu, I'm looking forward to your trip! I sincerely wish you two a pleasant time together! But remember not to do this kind of thing in public!"
The golden honeybee covered her mouth and chuckled.
"We won't!"
The two raised their heads angrily and shouted in unison.
Suddenly, the cheering from the audience below the stage in the real world became even more enthusiastic.
"…"
They felt like they were about to be unable to clear their names.
They had really sacrificed too much for work today.
"So, are you going to take away 169 gold bee coins plus an Animal Forest chocolate gift box, or are you going to challenge the last question?"
The golden honeybee looked at the two with great interest.
According to the rules, when asking the last question, the contestants' opinions must be asked once.
"The last question is the most difficult and also the simplest question. It is also the fixed question for our current [Love Maze Academy] event! If you can give a positive answer, you will receive the limited reward we are giving away, the [Heavenly Wood Golden Bee Commemorative Bracelet]!"
The golden honeybee host added.
The fourteenth question, as a fixed question, is defaulted to not be challenged. In fact, it had already been displayed before the start, but the couples who had experienced the first thirteen questions needed to choose whether to continue the challenge.
[Question 14 (Male & Female): At this moment, do you feel happy being by each other's side?]
Many couples broke up directly at this step.
Even if they had been pretending to accept each other's answers in the previous questions, their true feelings and thoughts would be revealed to each other at this step!
"After enduring thirteen rounds of trials, the fourteenth round is when the real damage is settled."
"If your girlfriend knows your true feelings, that you are no longer happy being by her side, then it will be basically impossible to explain and coax her."
"This is also the reason why no couple has been able to win the grand prize since this Golden Bee Amusement Park Central Courtyard special event opened."
The onlookers gossiped.
"Dare to play?"
Talia didn't look at Lan Qi, but whispered to him as if talking to herself.
"I'll play with you to the end today."
Lan Qi felt like he might be a little carried away today and replied.
"Okay! Then let's reveal the answer!"
The golden honeybee host spun happily, as if performing an unveiling magic trick. The classroom suddenly darkened, and when it lit up again, there were only two spotlights shining on the two of them respectively.
[Yes]
[Yes]
"Wow!!!"
At this moment, all the tourists in the entire Golden Bee Amusement Park Central Courtyard stood up from their seats, celebrating the festival as if it were a holiday.
