I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 267 - 261: The President of Zhongjing Group Does Have an Elementary School Diploma

Chapter 267: Chapter 261: The President of Zhongjing Group Does Have an Elementary School Diploma

"You’re tall, you’re slim, you’re upright, you’re amazing." Chen Xixi couldn’t hold back, she admitted she was a bit stung.

Sure, not liking homework is one of her characteristics, but kids who don’t like homework are found all over the world, so she felt that just because of this, it couldn’t confirm that Zhou Jinyuan was talking about her.

Thinking this way, Chen Xixi’s mood eased a bit.

Zhou Jinyuan rarely saw her with her fur up, so he couldn’t help but laugh, continuing in a teasing tone, "You look angry, just like how you were when I refused to do your homework in the past."

This was how Chen Xixi should seem to him, not constantly calling him President Zhou with a face full of fear as though he would eat her alive.

Chen Xixi originally wanted to retort, but this wave of anger made her inexplicably feel that the episode Zhou Jinyuan talked about seemed very familiar, as if it had really happened.

Could it be that when she was refused as a child, she also got angry like this, which is why she resonated with this anger?

She speculates on the vague memories, becoming more uncertain.

Seeing her not speaking and emotionally complicated, Zhou Jinyuan withdrew his teasing tone and said, "But later on, under your coercion and bribery, I did help you out, it’s just that..."

Chen Xixi hurriedly asked, "Just what?"

"The handwriting was different, it was noticed, you had a parent-teacher conference called, and then you didn’t speak to me for three days."

"..."

Chen Xixi fell silent for a while, "It’s still not certain it was me."

Having said that, she walked ahead.

The hot water heater show crew would take care of the installation; next, Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan could concentrate on the new tasks arranged by the show crew.

It’s hard to say whether the show crew overheard Chen Xixi’s comments about not liking homework. frёeωebɳovel.com

Qian Yue released this task as if to target her, "The next task is mental arithmetic! Each team must answer a hundred three-digit mental arithmetic questions, and the first three pairs to complete them correctly and in the shortest time will get 10 points, and also the chance to watch a movie with your partner!"

Hu Yun folded his arms across his chest and spoke in a relaxed expression, "Isn’t this elementary school stuff? So easy?"

Qian Yue giggled: "Don’t jump to conclusions so early; I’m worried some people might get even elementary questions wrong."

Zheng He glanced at Hu Yun and thought he was just too naive; as a reality show veteran, he certainly understood the ways of these shows.

He disagreed: "If the crew allowed us to complete it so easily, they wouldn’t be called a show crew."

And indeed, this was the case.

Qian Yue continued, "Each team chooses one person to solve the problems, and the other can go disrupt the other guests."

Hu Yun frowned, "Disrupt while solving problems? Can we even think straight then? It’s probably going to be hard to concentrate, right?"

Chen Xixi really got a headache thinking about doing arithmetic; she didn’t even have to say anything, and Zhou Jinyuan quickly said, "I’ll do the arithmetic; you go disrupt."

Chen Xixi considerately asked, "Can you handle it?"

It’s not that she couldn’t do it, nor that she didn’t know how; she just didn’t like it. The sight of questions made her feel inexplicably irritable.

Zhou Jinyuan slightly curved his lips into a smile, "Zhongjing Group’s CEO, I still have elementary level credentials."

"..." Chen Xixi appreciated Zhou Jinyuan’s humble joke.

Decidedly sending Zhou Jinyuan into the fray.

Zheng He looked at Hu Yun and hesitantly said, "You do the arithmetic, I’ll disrupt them."

Hu Yun, seeing his awkward demeanor, couldn’t help but look somewhat disdainful, "You can’t do three-digit mental arithmetic?"

Zheng He firmly said, "Who said I couldn’t! I’m just worried you’re not good at disrupting, worried you, as a girl, wouldn’t dare do something too extreme. I’m considering your dignity!"

"Alright, alright, I’ll do the arithmetic." Hu Yun felt he was just not up to it.

Besides, she didn’t really trust Zheng He’s intelligence for the task.

Whether or not they watch a movie wasn’t important; they had to get those points, otherwise, she was going to starve.

Chen Xixi had recently been preparing to join a new group, so her agent strictly controlled her diet, leaving her hungry all the time. Now that she couldn’t even get a meal, she felt like she was on the fast track to becoming immortal.

Soon, the groups for answering and distracting were all sorted out.

Answering Group: Zhou Jinyuan, Wan Chen, Hu Yun, Qin Wei, Song Man.

Distraction Group: Chen Xixi, Han Qianyi, Zheng He, Xu Mu, Qi Shuo.

Following Qian Yue’s whistle, the answering group began to respond to the questions.

The distraction group was not to be outdone.

While Han Qianyi and Zheng He, Xu Mu and Qi Shuo, were vigorously trying to distract the others, speaking beside them and counting out loud.

Chen Xixi directly played music on her phone and added mental arithmetic questions.

However, the answerers were all quite focused. Although they were slower due to the distractions, their accuracy was still not bad.

Until—Chen Xixi started playing the "Zheng He Scam Compilation."

It was so rare that everyone could not keep their composure.

Their minds wandered; their heads filled with thoughts of Zheng He.

The speed of their calculations also noticeably slowed down.

The reason was simple; the "Zheng He Scam Compilation" was just too entertaining!

[HAHAHA, it’s all about twists and turns, gossip is the strongest force!]

[I wonder who the genius is that edited this compilation, whenever I come across it, it grabs my attention for a good ten minutes.]

[I didn’t expect Zheng He’s compilation to have such an effect on distracting everyone HAHAHA!]

[However, it seems President Zhou wasn’t distracted at all!]

Zhou Jinyuan wasn’t interested in Zheng He, so naturally, he wasn’t affected by the distraction, moreover... Chen Xixi had stuffed something in his ears earlier, so normal noise from the outside world was almost completely filtered out and didn’t affect him much.

Zheng He, upon hearing Chen Xixi playing his scam compilation, abruptly stopped his attempts to distract Zhou Jinyuan.

"???" As if he wanted to be reminded of his social death again?

"Don’t play that! Turn it off right now!" Zheng He was desperate, no longer trying to distract Zhou Jinyuan, he turned around and went after Chen Xixi.

Naturally, Chen Xixi couldn’t let him succeed. During the chase in which she dodged and he pursued, Zhou Jinyuan completed his answering task.

Chen Xixi had won; there was no need for her to distract others anymore, only then did she turn off the content playing on her phone.

Zheng He slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing: "Damn! You were just trying to divert me from disturbing President Zhou, weren’t you?!"

"You’re too slow on the uptake." Chen Xixi smiled slightly, "Keep trying, we’re off to have dinner and watch a movie now."

Zheng He was grinding his teeth in frustration; if Chen Xixi hadn’t played his scandal compilation, he would have surely held Zhou Jinyuan back from completing his task!

After earning points, Chen Xixi and Zhou Jinyuan went to the Points Supermarket together, exchanging them for an induction cooker, pots and other kitchen utensils, as well as a pound of rice, a pound of eggs, and a fish.

Home appliances and ingredients were exceptionally cheap, almost all costing one point to exchange, since the show’s production team believed these items could promote relationships, they made the points particularly low.

Chen Xixi, holding the fish, walked into the kitchen without calling Zhou Jinyuan.

She figured that a big boss like Zhou Jinyuan surely wouldn’t offer to help with the cooking.

Not that she despised the kitchen, but he probably didn’t know how to cook at all.

If she asked him for help, he might end up being a hindrance.

Just as Chen Xixi thought this, Zhou Jinyuan took off his expensive suit jacket and casually threw it on the bed. Then, he rolled up the sleeves of his black shirt, took the fish from her, and said, "I’ll cook."

[Ah? President Zhou is cooking for Chen Xixi? This is unheard of!]

[Lucky brat, I wish I could switch places with her for a day as President Zhou’s partner, I want to eat a meal cooked by President Zhou myself!]

[Does President Zhou really know how to cook?]
