Rise and Slay: From Scandal Queen to Academic Genius-Chapter 264 - 243: Scientific Quiz Grinding to Ward Off Evil and Disaster
Among the guests, only Zhu Xiuβan and Bai Zhe were absent, given their eagerness when heading out, itβs likely one of them. π³πΏππππ²ππ»ππππ₯.ππ π
Sheng Yaoyao nodded in agreement, "I just wonder who ended up buying it?"
Le Qiqi spoke first: "Zhu Xiuβan, probably. He seemed really determined. He should be able to snag it!"
Sheng Yaoyao shared the same thought as Le Qiqi, "Iβve seen Xiao Yue really fired up this episode. Iβll guess Xiao Yue too!"
Fang Zhuyue wasnβt too keen on supporting Bai Zhe, but compared to supporting Zhu Xiuβan, she preferred guessing Zhu Xiuβanβs dialogue, so she said, "I think itβs still Bai Zhe."
Guan Fengyan was swayed, and cheerfully guessed, "Then Iβll go with Bai Zhe too!"
You Yingmeng shook his head, "I canβt guess."
Zhong Yulu was affected by a dream, and now his mind was still chaotic, so he didnβt speak.
Everyone assumed it was because he was tired from getting up early and completing a punishment task, so they didnβt pay attention to it.
After the guesses were made, everyone looked at Ji Xizhi, their eyes full of anticipation.
Ji Xizhi saw their eager expressions, then looked up at the big supermarket sign down the road, feeling a bit helpless, "Weβll know when we take a look."
[Zhi Zhi: Itβs just a few steps, do you really need to guess here?!]
[Iβm dying of laughter, Ji Xizhi has become the rational parent of this big family now!]
[Itβs understandable, after all, Zhi Zhi was the one who brought back five bucks of huge spending money last time, satisfying everyoneβs snack cravings~]
The guesses for Zhu Xiuβan and Bai Zhe were tied at 2 to 2.
Ji Xizhi didnβt guess, so there was no result.
Le Qiqi persistently insisted that Ji Xizhi take a guess.
Ji Xizhi straightforwardly said, "Zhu Xiuβan."
[Ah, so sweet! When Silly Dog replays this segment, heβll definitely be moved!]
[Though, hopefully Zhu Xiuβan remains calm. I know youβre moved, but donβt be too movedβbecause...]
Le Qiqi was so happy about Ji Xizhi being on the same page that she cheered without even asking Ji Xizhi why she chose Zhu Xiuβan; as long as Ji Xizhi chose the same, sheβs happy.
On the side, Fang Zhuyue felt a little down for not being united with Ji Xizhi but quickly adjusted and followed everyone to the program groupβs supermarket.
The walk from the road to the supermarket wasnβt far.
The other guests walked together, and they hadnβt even reached the door when they heard Zhu Xiuβanβs excited cheers.
"Though itβs mine, you deserve credit too. Weβre still good brothers!"
No need to say more, everyone knew Zhu Xiuβan snagged the one-dollar crystal lamp.
But it wasnβt easy for him to get it.
Originally, he and Bai Zhe set off at the same time, running neck and neck, but nearing the finish, a giant goose from a neighboring village family flew out and pecked his thigh, letting Bai Zhe arrive at the supermarket first.
Under normal circumstances, Bai Zhe shouldβve secured the purchase.
Unfortunately, Bai Zhe forgot he didnβt have money on him. He had already given all his money to Zhu Xiuβan at the salted fish stall, leaving him with nothing.
Ultimately, it was the injured Zhu Xiuβan who claimed everything.
When the guests heard the buying process, they didnβt know whether Zhu Xiuβan was more pitiful or Bai Zhe more unfortunate.
Sheng Yaoyao glanced at Ji Xizhi unpredictably and asked, "Zhi Zhi, when you guessed Zhu Xiuβan would buy the crystal lamp, was it because..."
Ji Xizhi replied, "Yep, Bai Zhe had no money."
Everyoneβs focus was on the buying of the special offer, and the program team even reminded that flying guests could participate, so no one thought much about it, even the flying guests themselves didnβt realize they couldnβt even spare a dollar.
Only Ji Xizhi remembered, among the flying guests, besides Fang Zhuyue, they all had no money left.
[So Bai Zhe worked hard for what, really!]
Bai Zhe almost couldnβt keep his emotions in check when he heard Sheng Yaoyao and Ji Xizhiβs conversation.
He went all out for the crystal lamp because of Ji Xizhi, yet Ji Xizhi knew he had no money and didnβt warn him!
Bai Zhe held some grudge against Ji Xizhi.
Ji Xizhi didnβt realize that he had shifted roles in Bai Zheβs mind several times, and wouldnβt care even if he knew.
Ji Xizhi was focused on the program groupβs supermarket, where only a small window was open at the front. She glanced through the window, feeling something was odd but couldnβt pinpoint it.
Until the program group handed the so-called special offer crystal lamp from the window to the victorious Zhu Xiuβan.
Zhu Xiuβan fell silent.
The other guests also fell silent.
Sheng Yaoyao looked at Ji Xizhi and, belatedly, exclaimed, "Zhi Zhi, you didnβt go for the crystal lamp for this reason, thank you, Zhi Zhi~"
If she had this lamp in the room she was redecorating, sheβd probably never want to step into that room again.
Ji Xizhi: "." That really wasnβt the reason, but now, maybe this reason is better.
Because the crystal lamp handed over by the program group was too shocking; it was made of six crystal golden koi fish decorated with countless shell lotus sculptures, oozing wealth and grandeur.
Even Zhu Xiuβan, usually a straightforward man, couldnβt utter a word.
After holding back for a while, Zhu Xiuβan glanced at Bai Zhe: "Buddy, this lamp... maybe Iβd better let you have it!"
Bai Zhe: ".........No."
[Hahahahahahahahaha this koi crystal lamp, damn, my mom said she wanted to buy it once, and I almost cried pleading her not to, didnβt think Iβd see it in buyerβs showcase!]
[The program groupβs traps, Iβll never foresee, what you think losing isnβt losing, what you think winning isnβt winning, letβs congratulate Silly Dog!]
[Normally, the buying rights would be Ji Xizhiβs, had she not aced the quiz this time, it wouldβve been Zhu Xiuβanβs, what does this teach us? Sisters, acing quizzes can ward off evil and disaster!]
[Youβre insightful with that summary! Actually, my luck hasnβt been good lately, maybe a light quiz session will help!]
[Iβm joining too! Just screenshotted Ji Xizhiβs quiz, come to the forum to get it yourself! Exchange answers~]
Suddenly, viewers in the livestream started becoming superstitious.
#quizexperiencewardsoffevil# soared to the top of trending topics, which the program group didnβt expect at all.
The program group had predicted all possible trending topics for this scene, like #JiXizhiQuizLive#, #ZhuXiuanSuccess#, #BaiZheMissesOutForADollar#, all of which could trend.
But warding off evil? What nonsense is this?! How did it get all mystical! They were doing a science livestream!!!
Passing by netizens seeing this topic felt as confused as the program crew, thinking a lifestyle show promoting superstition seemed inappropriate?
After commenting like this, they clicked in to watch for a bit, especially seeing Zhu Xiuβan holding the high-end crystal lamp.
Netizens quickly deleted previous comments.
Maybe they should also believe in superstition!
Scientific quiz practice, ward off evil!
