Yue Lingfeng noticed Yue Xin’s gaze and laughed. “Don’t worry about anything else. Let’s eat.”
Yue Xin nodded and reached out to take the food, but Yue Lingfeng handed her his hand.
Yue Xin was dumbfounded. Afterall, she wanted to eat but she wasn’t interested in eating human hands.
Therefore, under Yue Xin’s shocked expression, Yue Lingfeng held the bento box in one hand and pulled Yue Xin with the other to the cafeteria to cook!
Yue Xin looked at the dishes placed in front of Han Wen and Zhou Rong. Not bad. These two already had the ability to survive independently, unlike her, who only knew how to sleep. She also knew that it was not good for her to be like this, but she… couldn’t be bothered to change it.
There were only four people in the cafeteria, including Yue Xin. Zhou Xue, Zhao Lei, and Li Xing didn’t come back. The few of them gathered together to eat, and the atmosphere was even quieter than before.
Yue Xin was a quiet person to begin with, and it was unknown what Yue Lingfeng was thinking. Zhou Rong looked at Yue Xin and opened her mouth a few times, but she swallowed her words.
Han Wen was even more ridiculous. He stared at Yue Xin as he ate. Then, he accidentally stuffed the rice into his nostrils. Before he could deal with it, he choked on his own saliva. He coughed until his brain was about to come out of his nostrils as he blew his nose hard. He had made a fool of himself today.
Han Wen had made too much noise and finally attracted Yue Lingfeng’s attention. He took a look and saw Han Wen’s expression. He knew what he was thinking. “If you want to talk, just say it. The money you have left for the meal is not enough for you to eat dinner. You still have to go out in the afternoon.”
When Han Wen heard Yue Lingfeng’s words, he seemed to have finally made up his mind. He asked Yue Xin, “Sister Xin, can you teach me the algorithm you used today?”
Yue Xin swallowed the rice in her mouth. “Just learn mathematics.”
“Then do you know any techniques? Teach me.” This way, when he returned home, he could fight with those uncles who had retired!
Yue Xin looked at Han Wen as if he was a fool and said again, “There’s no technique, only mathematics.”
Oh, there might be some psychology and logical reasoning, but those weren’t important. What was important was mathematics. It was the best way to make people retreat.
As expected, when Han Wen heard that he had to learn mathematics, his facial features scrunched up. He wasn’t good in mathematics either. “Is there another way?”
Yue Xin said, “Learn physics.” Han Wen tried again, “…Anything else?”
Yue Xin replied, “Chemistry.”
Han Wen finally understood what Yue Xin meant by studying hard. She was really good at mathematics, physics, and chemistry and was not afraid of anything!
Han Wen thought for a moment and asked, “Then are there any games that rely entirely on luck?”
To be honest, Han Wen had never won a single time when he played cards with his uncles at home. Whether it was mahjong, poker, or rock, scissors and paper, he had never won. He really wanted to avenge himself!
When the production team heard Han Wen’s words, they pricked up their ears to listen. Wasn’t this free money? Before they could think of a way to make Yue Xin agree, Han Wen actually suggested it first.
Yue Xin thought for a moment. “No.”
Han Wen did not believe it. He used his not-so-smart brain to think for a moment. “We can close our eyes and guess if the person standing in front of us is a man or a woman.” Then we can only rely on luck, right?
Yue Xin only buried her head in her food and did not answer.
Han Wen didn’t get a response, but he became more and more excited. He pulled Yue Xin and kept saying, “Sister Xin, play with me. How about we close our eyes and guess if the person standing in front of us is a man or a woman?”
Yue Xin ignored him.
Han Wen continued, “Let them stand away from us so that they can’t be distinguished by smell.”
Yue Xin still ignored him.
“Let the production team randomly send someone. That’s fairer, okay, Sister Xin?” As soon as Han Wen finished speaking, the production team agreed. “Alright, no problem!”
Yue Xin was puzzled. There must be something fishy about the production team agreeing so quickly. Was there some evil deal in secret?
However, Yue Xin thought that since the production team had made things convenient for her, she would fulfill the production team’s wish once. Under everyone’s expectant gazes, Yue Xin nodded.
Thus, Han Wen and Yue Xin were blindfolded by the production team. The person whose gender they had to guess was about 20 meters away from them. The two of them guessed the gender together and could guess the same answer. The person with the most wins would be the overall winner. Because this was an individual challenge, the winner would not have any spoils of war.
Soon, Yue Xin heard someone shouting “begin” , which meant that the person whose gender was to be guessed was already in place.
Han Wen guessed very quickly and answered without hesitation, “A man.” Although Han Wen chose quickly, he had already specially taken a look just now. The number of male staff present was greater than the number of females. In other words, as long as one kept guessing that it was a male, the probability of winning was very high. Yue Xin was slower than him, but the answer she gave was also a male. In the second round, Han Wen still guessed it was male, and Yue Xin guessed it was a female. In the third round, Han Wen and Yue Xin guessed it was a male.. In the fourth round…
