Chapter 37: A series of twists and turns in the chain game

The people in the audience were enjoying this dramatic reversal with great interest, but Hu Lizhen on the stage clenched her teeth and had a gloomy face. Zhi Chuchu and Du Ping were in a dilemma.

"Well... Lizhen, should we... not challenge her? We can't afford to offend Tang Wenya!"

Zhi Chuchu couldn't help but tug at Hu Lizhen's clothes.

"You can't afford to offend me, but I can. You are afraid of her, but I am not!"

Hu Lizhen said loudly , then suddenly turned around and smiled brightly at Tang Wenya.

"Wen Ya, when did you become so close to Meng Xin? Didn't I see you watching others bully Meng Xin the day before yesterday?"

Her words were very hurtful .

But who is Tang Wenya? How could she be choked by Hu Lizhen's words?

"Are you blind? My sister asked for leave to go back to Hongshan a few days ago and has been away from school since last Wednesday! What's more, today is Tuesday and the day before yesterday was a weekend. Which eye of yours could see that my sister was bullied?"

This sentence almost choked Hu Lizhen to death.

But she was no pushover and she quickly came up with a plan to fight back.

"But Wenya, it's so easy for you to recognize your sister! Could it be that...after seeing Meng Xin's brother defeat He Hui yesterday, you secretly fell in love with him?"

Her words once again pierced Tang Wenya's heart.

Tang Wenya's face turned red and she started cursing.

"Meng Xin's brother is also my brother, don't be so gullible! You are so fickle that you fall in love with a handsome guy. Don't think that other people are as shameless as you! Bah!"

The last "Pooh" made Hu Lizhen dizzy and almost fall down.

She has been in college for less than three years and has already had no less than five boyfriends, all of them were handsome boys on campus .

The recent Yu Yunfeng, but he had only been in a relationship with her for less than two months.

So she was heartbroken , and Tang Wenya stabbed her with a knife until she bled.

All the students in the classroom stared at Hu Lizhen with a half-smile, especially the boys, who looked at places that should not be looked at.

Hu Lizhen was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, but she could only swallow her frustration and said, "Wen Ya, you are good at talking. I admit that I can't beat you! But I remember that in the last ancient Chinese test, you seemed to be ranked quite low, right? Do you really want to challenge me and Chu Chu to an ancient poetry chain with this partner named Meng?"

"It's you who's challenging me, not me! But it doesn't matter who challenges me, my sister Meng Xin and I will definitely beat you to a pulp!"

"Everyone can brag, but I'm afraid you won't admit it if I lose later!"

Hu Lizhen gritted her teeth and smiled coldly, "We have just set the rules. The loser will either serve the winner as a servant for half a year or drop out of school. Wenya, are you sure you want to accept the loss?"

"Of course I am willing to accept the loss, as long as you don't deny your debt after losing!"

"Okay, it's settled then!"

Hu Lizhen waved her hand.

It’s a pity that Zhi Chuchu and Du Ping didn’t live up to the expectations, especially Zhi Chuchu, who looked like she was about to cry.

"Lizhen, why don't we just forget it! With Tang Wenya standing in our way, even if we win, we can't let Meng Xin be our servant!"

"You want to back out?"

Hu Lizhen's expression changed, looking particularly scary. "I'm telling you, Zhi Chuchu, if you back out at this time, I'll ask my dad to remove your father from his position when I get back!"

Zhi Chuchu's father is a small section chief under Hu Lizhen's father, and his life and death are in the hands of Hu Lizhen's father.

This is why Zhi Chuchu is willing to be Hu Lizhen's follower.

Seeing Hu Lizhen's ferocious expression, Zhi Chuchu couldn't help but shudder and could only look at Du Ping pitifully, " How about you go up, Pingping ?"

"My grades aren't as good as yours, so I'd better help you keep track of time!"

Du Ping also shuddered and quickly jumped off the podium and tried to escape as far away as possible.

Meng Xin was also a little worried and couldn't help but whisper , "Sister Wen Ya?"

"It's okay, Meng Xin. Brother Meng gave me a few magic bags. He said that when we can't connect, we just need to unlock the bags one by one!"

Tang Wenya said, gently raising the several folded pieces of paper in her hand.

Meng Xin knew that this was what Tang Wenya called the "magic bag", and she couldn't help but glance at her brother in the audience.

Meng Hao smiled at her and nodded.

"What's written inside? Can I take a look now?" Meng Xin asked.

"No! Brother Meng said that we can only open them one by one when we can't connect them, otherwise it will be useless!"

at Hu Lizhen and Zhi Chuchu beside her .

Zhi Chuchu was obviously absent-minded and looked nervous.

But Hu Lizhen's family is also a high-ranking official family. Although she is not as powerful as Tang Wenya, she is not afraid of her.

So Hu Lizhen still had a domineering look on her face and was full of fighting spirit.

"Since you accept the challenge, let's get started! Let me make it clear first, you are not allowed to use your cell phone. Also, the pause time for consideration cannot exceed ten seconds, otherwise you lose!"

"No problem, let's get started!"

Tang Wenya raised her chin indifferently.

Everyone in the hall couldn't help but whisper.

"Who do you think will win if Tang Wenya joins?"

"That must be the group of Hu Lizhen and Zhi Chuchu! You know, these two are top students in the Department of Literature, much better than Meng Xin and Tang Wenya!"

"Yes, yes. Anyway, I don't think highly of the group of Meng Xin and Tang Wenya. However, with the power of Tang Wenya's family, even if they lose, Hu Lizhen will not be able to force them to do anything!"

"Even if we can't force her, this will definitely make us lose face. Even Tang Wenya won't be able to hold her head up in front of Hu Lizhen anymore!"

"Yeah, if you lose, you lose. If Hu Lizhen wants to make fun of Meng Xin and Tang Wenya in the future, no matter how good Tang Wenya is at talking, it will be hard for her to refute her!"

"These two are my goddesses, why did it come to this? I feel so sad!"

"Go to hell, you're still feeling bad. If they hear you, you'll be skinned alive!"

...

The rules of ancient poetry relay are very simple. One party reads out a line of ancient poetry first, and the other party must use the last word of this line as the first word to continue with another line of ancient poetry.

There is no limit to the subject matter, it can be five-character or seven-character, or even ancient poetry.

However, it must be ancient poetry and lyrics. Modern poetry or self-made poetry cannot be used.

As the person who was forced to accept the challenge, Meng Xin has the right to speak first.

Amid the silence in the room, Meng Xin casually recited a line, "A line of egrets fly into the blue sky."

Hu Lizhen quickly followed up with “It’s hard to give up one’s natural beauty.”

brief pause, Meng Xin quickly came up with the line "Abandoned, I have gone and it is hard for me to return."

As soon as this sentence was uttered, many people in the audience cheered loudly.

Hu Lizhen added, "The sand in front of Huiluo Peak is like snow."

Meng Xin followed with the sentence "I know the arrival of spring in the snow."

Hu Lizhen hesitated for a moment , and Zhi Chuchu added, "At this point, my heart is broken and his heart is broken."

Meng Xin added, "It's far better than the willows and smoke all over the imperial capital."

The two groups of people fought back and forth continuously without any pause in between.

The whole room was in complete silence. The more they listened, the more they felt that these girls were very knowledgeable. Many ancient poems came out of their mouths fluently, and many people had never even heard of them.

Among them, Meng Xin shines the most.

Because after a pause, Zhi Chuchu would immediately take over Hu Lizhen.

Within twenty minutes, Zhi Chuchu helped Hu Lizhen to compose at least ten lines of poetry.

But Meng Xin was always fighting against Hu Lizhen and Zhi Chuchu alone. Although Tang Wenya stood beside her, she couldn't even finish a line of poetry.

It’s not that Tang Wenya’s level is really bad, but Meng Xin responded too quickly and Tang Wenya couldn’t get a word in at all.

"I didn't expect Meng Xin to be so powerful. It's basically just her fighting against Hu Lizhen and Zhi Chuchu alone!"

"I didn't expect Meng Xin to be so amazing. From her second sentence... the one about 'abandoning my concubine', I felt that she was amazing!"

"That poem is indeed unpopular . I still don't know who wrote it!"

"It seems that Hu Lizhen and Zhi Chuchu may not be able to win for sure, Meng Xin still has a great chance of winning!"

"If it was a one-on-one match, Hu Lizhen should have lost to Meng Xin, but with Zhi Chuchu, I'm still not optimistic about Meng Xin's group!"

"I think so too. After all, Tang Wenya hasn't even finished a line of poetry yet!"

"Stop talking, Meng Xin seems to be stuck!"

...

Meng Xin was indeed stuck, and for a moment her head was covered in sweat and her pretty face flushed.

Naturally, the people in the audience were talking and whispering to each other.

"What kind of poem is this? I just said Meng Xin would not lose, why can't I continue it all of a sudden?"

"Didn't you just hear it? It's 'The spring breeze still remains with me'!"

"Another ending with the word 'abandon'. Oh my god, I can't even finish a sentence, and here comes another one!"

"Meng Xin is finished now. She is definitely going to lose!"

"They've started counting... seven, six, five, four..."

"Don't count yet, Tang Wenya has spoken!"

...
