Chapter 49

There were only four people in the restaurant including Shen Yue.

Zou Xuezheng, Dong Nuo, and Li Xing had not come back.

A few people sat together eating, the atmosphere was much quieter than before.

Shen Yue didn't talk much usually, and Shen Shuangyi didn't know what he was thinking. Zou Xuerong looked at Shen Yue wanting to speak but swallowed her words.

Jiang Shiwen was even more outrageous, staring at Shen Yue while eating, and then accidentally fed the rice into his nostrils, and was choked by his own saliva.

Coughing desperately, he vigorously blew his nose with tissue, making a big fool of himself today.

Jiang Shiwen's movements were too loud, finally attracting Shen Shuangyi's attention. He glanced over and knew what Jiang Shiwen was thinking, "If you have something to say, just say it quickly, you don't have enough money left for dinner, you still have to go out in the afternoon."

When Jiang Shiwen heard Shen Shuangyi's words, he seemed to have finally made up his mind and asked Shen Yue, "Sister Yue, can you teach me the algorithm from this morning?"

Shen Yue swallowed the rice in her mouth before speaking, "Just study math."

"Can you teach me any techniques or something!" That way he could go back and have a chance against those retired uncles!

Shen Yue looked at Jiang Shiwen as if looking at a fool, and repeated, "No techniques, just math."

Oh, and maybe some logic and psychology, but those aren't important. What's important is that math is the hardest and can best make people feel the joy of giving up.

Sure enough, when Jiang Shiwen heard math, his whole face wrinkled. He couldn't learn math, "Is there any other way?"

"Study physics."

"......Anything else?"

"Study chemistry."

Jiang Shiwen suddenly felt the meaning behind Shen Yue's words to study hard.

Really, studying math, physics and chemistry can get you anywhere without fear.

Jiang Shiwen thought about it, and asked again, "Is there a game that relies purely on luck?"

To be honest, Jiang Shiwen had never won against those uncles when playing cards at home during the New Year.

No matter mahjong, poker, or even rock paper scissors, he could never win. He really wanted to vent!

When the program team heard Jiang Shiwen's words, they also pricked up their ears. This was money delivered to their door!

Before they could think of how to get Shen Yue to agree, Jiang Shiwen had already asked ahead of them.

Shen Yue thought about it and answered, "No."

But Jiang Shiwen didn't believe it. He pondered with his not-so-smart brain for a while, "We can close our eyes and guess if the person in front of us is male or female."

That would be purely luck.

Shen Yue just kept eating without answering.

Jiang Shiwen didn't get a response, but he became more and more excited, pulling Shen Yue and making noise in her ear, "Sister Yue! Play with me for a bit, let's close our eyes and guess if the person standing in front of us is male or female, what do you think!"

Shen Yue ignored him.

Jiang Shiwen shouted in another spot, "Have them stand much farther away so we can't use scent to distinguish."

Shen Yue still ignored him.

"Have the program team randomly pick people, that's more fair. What do you think, Sister Yue!!"

As soon as Jiang Shiwen finished speaking, the program team immediately agreed, "Okay! No problem!!"

Shen Yue: ? The program team agreed so readily, there must be a scheme, some evil deal going on behind the scenes.

However, Shen Yue thought, considering the program team had just done her a favor, satisfying their wish wasn't a big deal either.

Under everyone's expectant gazes, Shen Yue finally nodded.

So Jiang Shiwen and Shen Yue both had their eyes covered, while the person picked to guess their gender was about 20 meters away from them.

They would guess the gender together, allowed to guess the same answer. After 5 rounds, the one with the most correct guesses wins.

Since this was a personal challenge initiated between them, there was no prize for the winner.

Soon, Shen Yue heard the start signal, indicating the person was in position.

Jiang Shiwen chose very quickly, almost no hesitation before saying, "Male."

Don't underestimate him even though he answered without thinking. Jiang Shiwen had specifically checked earlier and saw that there were more males than females present, so just guessing male increased his odds.

Shen Yue was a bit slower, but also guessed male.

For the second person, Jiang Shiwen guessed male again, and Shen Yue guessed female.

For the third person, Jiang Shiwen guessed male, Shen Yue also guessed male.

The fourth person...

In the end, Shen Yue got them all right, while Jiang Shiwen got two wrong.

Jiang Shiwen looked at Shen Yue in disbelief, why?!

Shen Yue took a look, the sun was just right for an afternoon nap, so she casually brushed it off, "Just guessed."

Jiang Shiwen obviously didn't believe her, and kept pestering Shen Yue to ask how she did it. Shen Yue kept silent.

She knew she had already done too many inappropriate things recently just to get food and shelter, so for the sake of not getting forcibly recruited for hard labor when she returned, she should keep a low profile for now.

"Just guessed."

Jiang Shiwen still didn't believe her, and was about to continue pestering when Shen Shuangyi took him away.

After seeing the two leave, Zou Xuerong quietly sidled up to Shen Yue and whispered, "Yueyue, you're so amazing!"

When Shen Yue heard this, she also moved closer to Zou Xuerong and whispered, "You're also amazing."

As soon as Zou Xuerong heard that, her eyes curved into a smile, "I'll work hard this afternoon so I can cook for you tomorrow!"

Shen Yue's eyes also showed joy. Wonderful, then she wouldn't have to go out tomorrow either.

"Okay."

In the afternoon, some were working hard, some were suffering, some were making money, and some were lying in bed reading novels. 𝐟𝐫eewe𝗯𝐧𝚘ve𝐥.c𝚘𝚖

Over the next few days, the show kept coming up with ways to torment the guests. Everyone was tortured enough, only Shen Yue was fed well every day, never repeating a meal, and spent her days sleeping in the morning, reading novels in the afternoon, humoring others with a couple sentences at night, and intimate time with Zou Xuerong.

With food and shelter taken care of, Shen Yue even lost interest in the hidden eggs.

She was like a coat rack, hanging off Shen Shuangyi in the morning, Zou Xuerong at noon, and Jiang Shiwen at night. Someone always happily and voluntarily fed her.

The program team was worried at first that Boss Shen would see this and issue new instructions again, but after staring at the livestream all day, there was no movement.

So the program team stopped caring either.

The audience actually seemed to love watching these people enthusiastically feeding Shen Yue anyway.

The livestreams of the other three were much bleaker in comparison.

Dong Nuo already didn't have much popularity to begin with, and had no special performances during the show, so the audience gradually forgot about him.

For Zou Xuezheng's stream, the audience got bored of her after watching for a while since she was the same every day, and perceptive viewers also felt something was off about her so not many liked her.

As for Li Xing, he lost fans rapidly.

Not only because of his performance on the show, but some problems in his lifestyle were also dug up.

For example, he had voluntarily become a son-in-law in the Jiang family, but was secretly ambiguous with many celebrities behind the scenes.

Even some madams of wealthy families were involved.

For a time, everyone was cursing Li Xing.

But he only found out about it on the day the show ended.
