After handing in their works, the expressions on the faces of those few people finally relaxed. They said that they didn't care about the results of the competition, but no one wanted to be eliminated in the preliminaries.
"You are a meritorious general!" Ruo Qing happily pinched Zhang Lanlan's little face: "I didn't think that you would know so much!"
"I only brought up my own idea. If Brother Lu wasn't in a bad state, I wouldn't be on the stage." Zhang Lanlan smiled humbly.
"I'm better." Lu Zhiyi gratefully looked at Ye Chen, and then said to Zhang Lanlan: "Even if I am in good condition, I would probably have to quarrel with Zhou Sheng for a while. The result wouldn't be as natural as you cooperating with him."
If it was said that they had previously only seen Zhang Lanlan as a foil, then now, Zhang Lanlan had already established a position in their hearts. She had the ability to truly learn.
Next was the time to wait for the results, Ye Chen still had to massage Lu Zhiyi a bit more, but Lu Zhiyi could not do anything, he did not even have the ability to contribute to the competition, much less allow the boss to massage him? Furthermore, Ye Chen's massage technique was not just for show, he already felt that …
"How do you feel?" Ye Chen and her group were the first to return to the waiting area. As the leader, Han Meimei could ask anything she wanted, even though she did not think that it would be good. It was because she knew that something was wrong with Lu Zhiyi, but she did not want Ye Chen and the rest to be eliminated so quickly. Even if she treated them as bodyguards, it would still be of some use.
"He must have entered." Ye Chen had a face full of confidence. If he didn't even have that much confidence, he wouldn't have brought his team here to lose face.
"Let's see what the judges think." Zhou Sheng laughed as he rubbed his hands, he could tell that the alcohol was almost gone, thus he regained his confidence. Ye Chen was so angry that he wanted to bring him out for a drink now.
The most tiring people in the studio would be the judges, and everyone would have to review all the works once through. Food and drinks could only be found on the judges' seats, and even the people in the toilet had to follow along, making it completely transparent. If he was to carefully study all the works, then they probably wouldn't have to do anything.
The contestants could keep an eye on them as they scored, or they could go back to their rooms to rest and wait for the results to be announced. Everyone would naturally be happy to enter the semifinals, and if they didn't, they could just pack up and leave from the hotel.
After Ye Chen bid farewell to Han Meimei, he brought the rest of them back to rest. Seeing Lu Zhiyi's current condition, it was not suitable for him to wait here for the results, furthermore, Ye Chen was not interested in waiting here either. Regardless of whether they were staring at the evaluators or not, he did not have the ability to change the result.
"It's really fast!" On the way back, Ruo Qing was a little emotional. No matter what each piece of work looked like, they had gathered the blood and sweat of the entire party, and after that, they had accumulated a lot of hard work for a long period of time.
Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders, he did not comment on such an outcome. For him, after painstakingly training for so many years, wasn't success or failure determined by the mission? And his success or failure was even more cruel. If the mission succeeded, everyone would be happy. If he failed, then he might have to pay the price of injury or even death!
Because they still had a lot of time to spare, Ye Chen gave them a break as he did not want them to be nervous about their matches at all times. In the remaining time, they could do whatever they wanted to do.
As far as girls were concerned, the thing they wanted to do the most during holidays was shopping. Ruo Qing and Zhang Lanlan immediately decided to go shopping. On the other hand, Zhou Sheng decided to rest inside his room, so it would be good for him to take care of Lu Zhiyi.
However, their competition's venue was a little off. Other than the university city, there wasn't much else worth for the girls to stroll around, let alone shopping extravagantly. Thus, Zhang Lanlan and Ruo Qing went to each of the universities to take a spin around, and felt the culture of other countries.
Ye Chen followed behind like a bodyguard. He had nothing much to look forward to in a university like this, but seeing the two women having such fun, he also felt happy. In any case, they were young to begin with, so they just happened to be around the right age. The two women even got hit on by the other boys!
The biggest difference between overseas and domestic boys was probably their extra initiative. Furthermore, when teasing girls, it was extremely natural and sincere. Whether it was Zhang Lanlan or Ruo Qing, both of them had a lot of experience in being hit by these little brothers, but they were still played around by them.
"Lanlan, do you like Ye Chen?" Seeing that Ye Chen was five to six meters away from them and couldn't hear their conversation, Ruo Qing grabbed Zhang Lanlan's arm and whispered.
"I like him. He's my big brother after all." Zhang Lanlan blushed a little, but quickly lowered his head. It was not very obvious.
"You know I'm not talking about like that!" Ruo Qing laughed mischievously.
Zhang Lanlan's face became even more red, even if she wanted to hide it, she couldn't.
"If you like him, you have to fight to the death to let him know. Otherwise, he won't be able to tell!" Ruo Qing said in all seriousness: "I think you are a good girl, and you are so outstanding, worthy to be with Ye Chen. "Besides, I'm afraid that after meeting him, the other little boys won't be able to enter your eyes anymore!"
Ruo Qing's words could be considered to have reached Zhang Lanlan's heart. It was just that she had never thought about it this way before. She knew that Ye Chen had too many women by his side, and people that didn't like to talk like her only thought of staying by his side silently all the time. She had never thought of taking control of him. But after hearing what Ruo Qing said, Zhang Lanlan suddenly had a bold thought in his mind: Maybe I'm also very outstanding! Then why not openly stand by Ye Chen's side? Just like Chen Ruoyun?
Every time she saw the two of them together, Zhang Lanlan would feel envy and a hint of jealousy. How she wished that she could stand by Ye Chen's side!
"But I'm embarrassed to say it." For Zhang Lanlan, being able to say these words was already extremely embarrassing, and it was as far as she was concerned. She had already broken through her limits, and it was only because Ruo Qing was thinking for her that she accidentally revealed her thoughts.
