Chapter 12: Questions Based on the Defense
Chapter 12
Shen Yue thought she would be the first to answer. After all, this question required a detailed explanation, and in her memory, she had spent nearly half a month studying the basic knowledge of this topic.
But when she approached the director's group, she realized that several people had already completed it before her.
After reviewing some of the answers, the director's group took out the microphone and provided additional instructions. "Today is the first day, and everyone is not yet familiar with each other. Asking you to answer this question is to help you understand each other. Open-ended questions do not have a standard answer; as long as your reasoning is sound, but the most reasonable answer will receive a reward."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Shiwen, standing on the side, said, "Let me share my answer first, and you can listen and see if it makes sense."
Jiang Shiwen's words were filled with confidence, as if he already believed that the reward belonged to him. And this confidence stemmed from his hobbies.
He enjoyed extreme sports and playing games, especially strategy games where he knew how to capture a village occupied by enemy forces.
How could those women who only knew how to play musical instruments, actors who sought applause, and inexperienced youngsters possibly have the level of detail he wrote?
"You must plan ahead, know where the enemy's weapons are stored, their regular activities, the changing of shifts when they are on duty at night. Then sneak in, take enough weapons, and destroy the rest. Set up landmines on the enemy's main route. If you have superior firepower, chase the enemy; if the enemy has superior firepower, lure them in. In any case, it's all about explosions. Art is explosion! BOOM!"
Jiang Shiwen was particularly excited, gesturing with his hands and matching his voice, as if he were truly at an explosive scene.
However, his ideas were indeed quite meticulous, considering even the smallest details. Ignoring his "captivating" actions, many fans in the barrage praised him.
Shen Yue's thought was that he seemed to have a touch of chuunibyou.
"And what about Mrs. Zou's answer? Do you need us to read it for you?"
Zou Xuezheng smiled gracefully and replied with a perfectly timed voice, "Thank you, I can read it myself. However, although I also wrote something, it's not as detailed as what Little Brother Jiang wrote."
Zou Xuezheng revealed her own paper, on which her answer was written in elegant handwriting. "What I can think of is to imitate the experience of our predecessors, like guerrilla warfare. Hide in the shadows, shoot and change position. If the enemy hides in a house, throw a smoke bomb; if they try to escape, drive them towards the location of the buried landmines... This way, we can probably accomplish the mission."
After Zou Xuezheng finished speaking, Li Xing, who had been relatively unnoticed, couldn't help but praise, "I didn't expect Mrs. Zou to be well-versed in this area."
Zou Xuezheng maintained her smile and naturally continued, "I wouldn't say I'm well-versed, but information related to guerrilla warfare has been recorded as early as in 'Records of the Grand Historian.' I just made a rough summary."
"Mrs. Zou is too modest..."
"Hey, brother-in-law, you're already engaged to my sister, so stop fooling around with other women. Look at you, your eyes are practically glued to someone else!" Jiang Shiwen stood at a distance, disdainfully staring at Li Xing and Zou Xuezheng as if they were something dirty.
Li Xing's eyes dimmed briefly, and he quickly concealed the fleeting fierceness by lowering his head. When he looked towards Jiang Shiwen, he had already put on an innocent and somewhat aggrieved expression. "Shiwen! What nonsense are you spouting? We were just having a normal conversation earlier. It doesn't matter how you talk about me; I'm used to it. But you can't defame Ms. Zou. What about your upbringing?"
Jiang Shiwen didn't care about Li Xing's act at all and sneered, "Watch your attitude when speaking. Who do you think you are?"
Li Xing is Jiang Shiwen's brother-in-law and also a somewhat popular second-tier celebrity. Although he doesn't reach the level of popularity as Shen Yue, he is still quite outstanding compared to others.
As soon as Jiang Shiwen finished speaking, some of Li Xing's fans rushed to his live stream and started berating him.
[They really have no manners. I can't believe I thought he was somewhat good-looking earlier.]
[Clearly, he's a spoiled child who's been pampered at home. He was just standing with us earlier, and now he's turning his back on us.]
[Why is he acting just like Shen's brother and sister? Can't he be a normal kid?]
[I can tell from his attitude that Li Xing treats his brother-in-law poorly at home. I feel sorry for him.]
[What a piece of trash! If he were my younger brother, I'd give him a good beating.]
The atmosphere between Li Xing and Jiang Shiwen suddenly became tense, but Shen Yue paid no attention to it at all.
She even casually walked through the two of them while holding the answers she had prepared and handed them to the director.
Only then did Shen Yue realize what was happening and quickly stopped spectating, approaching the director to prepare for the next answer.
Li Xing was interrupted, and the thread of rationality that had almost snapped reconnected. He composed his expression, softened his tone, and said to Jiang Shiwen, "I'm sorry, Shiwen. I didn't consider your feelings. I'll be more careful in the future, and you shouldn't involve others casually either."
Jiang Shiwen didn't respond and simply turned away.
As if the director's team hadn't noticed the conflict, they had already read Shen Yue's words written on the paper: "To find out the answer, dial 00××1537×××2698."
Everyone: ...
"Shen Teacher, you can't seek help from outside the set for the Easter egg," the director wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead and returned the paper with the answers to Shen Yue.
After listening, Shen Yue stood silently for two seconds and said, "Okay."
Then she left gracefully.
Shen Yue then handed over her answer and obediently waited on the side.
Waiting for lunch.
When the director took Shen Yue's answer, he initially thought it would be a random answer from a child, at most a concise and magical idea. However, when he took the paper, he was shocked by the long paragraphs and extensive content written on it.
What on earth is this?
The director rubbed his eyes and looked again, and it was still a lengthy piece!
He carefully read two sentences, suddenly adjusted his sitting posture, adjusted his glasses, and then resumed reading.
The further he read, the more shocked he became. Unable to help himself, he asked Shen Yue, "Shen Yue, what major are you studying?"
After asking, he felt foolish. Shen Yue looked young, so how could she have a major? It should be something she's interested in.
Shen Yue remained silent, just staring at him, attempting to communicate through eye contact, but failing.
The director looked at the answers on the paper, then glanced at the others, appearing quite troubled.
Jiang Shiwen, who was originally standing near the director's group, became instantly curious when he saw the director's obvious unease. He took two or three steps forward and arrived in front of the director's group, saying, "What did she write as her answer? Let me see."
Jiang Shiwen didn't bother to ask; he directly snatched Shen Yue's answer from the director's hand and, after reading it for a while, he also looked at Shen Yue with a shocked expression.
After a moment, he asked, "Have you also played 'Death Conflict'?"
Shen Yue turned her head, her eyes answering, and then turned back.
Jiang Shiwen clearly didn't receive Shen Yue's eye message. He ran up to Shen Yue again and asked, "Ignoring me? Have you played it or not? Or have you played something else?"
Shen Yue continued to remain silent, perfectly displaying the self-discipline of an introverted girl.
Zou Xuezheng, seeing Jiang Shiwen pestering Shen Yue, walked over as if to defuse the situation, standing in front of Shen Yue and saying, "Alright, Shiwen, Yueyue is a bit shy. Don't bother her like this."
Upon hearing Zou Xuezheng's words, Jiang Shiwen felt a hint of malice in them. The way Zou Xuezheng spoke made it seem like he was bullying someone. As a result, his temper instantly flared up, and he responded to Zou Xuezheng without politeness, saying, "I just think she's impressive, that's why I wanted to talk to her. Why do you care so much?"
After speaking, Jiang Shiwen returned the answer to the director's group and left, silently cursing his bad luck.
If it weren't for his parents asking him to keep an eye on Li Xing, he wouldn't have come to this lousy show and suffer such annoyance.
Meanwhile, Zou Xuezheng's smile remained unchanged upon hearing Jiang Shiwen praise Shen Yue's abilities, but her eyes dimmed slightly.
Seeing Jiang Shiwen leave, she also approached the director's group and asked, "May I see the answer of Shen Yue's younger sister, please?"
