I've Gone Viral Because of a Money-Saving Variety Show-Chapter 182 - 176 Come on, Feed! ABC!
Chapter 182: Chapter 176 Come on, Feed! ABC!
This is practically a giveaway!
These kinds of questions, which I’ve seen online, are all about humor and testing mental agility.
He guessed that the activity participants were all older folks, which is why the host was making it easy, he thought.
The host looked at Zheng He with a smile, "Are you sure?"
Zheng He: "Sure!"
The host’s smile was full of malice: "Okay! Congratulations on successfully—getting it wrong!"
The smile Zheng He had just raised froze on his face, as a dark and twisted emotion flitted through his eyes: "..." Why congratulate me on success when I got it wrong?! What a waste of my feelings!
"November!"
Chen Xixi quickly buzzed in with an answer as soon as the host finished speaking.
The host raised an eyebrow, "Are you sure?"
Chen Xixi nodded confidently, "Sure."
"Congratulations on the correct answer! Add a point!"
[? The October Revolution wasn’t in October??]
[I looked it up online and it’s indeed in November, this question is hilarious hahaha!]
[I thought the host was just being lenient for fun, to see who reacted fastest! Turns out the host is serious!]
[Why do I feel like knowledge is cruelly forcing its way into my brain?]
The host began the second question: "The second question, a geographical one, listen up! The Canary Islands in the Atlantic are named after which animal? A, Canaries. B, Dogs. C, Fish."
This time, Zheng He did not dare to rush in with an answer.
Following the pattern of the first question, the name "Canary Islands" was surely not after the canary bird, so option A was completely off the table.
But which option should he choose to not expose his intelligence, or lack thereof? Zheng He needed to think carefully.
Just then, Jin Cheng spoke up: "C."
The host turned to Jin Cheng and asked with a smile, "Why choose C?"
Jin Cheng spoke calmly: "When in doubt on a multiple-choice question, choose C. You won’t go wrong."
[Hahaha, makes sense, makes sense!]
[Did Mr. Jin survive exams by choosing C all the time too? Looks like Mr. Jin is a bit of an academic slacker, right?]
Host: "Congratulations, you are wrong!"
Another wrong answer was eliminated, so doesn’t the right answer become obvious?
Zheng He’s eyes flickered, his lips just about to move, when an annoying female voice preempted him.
Chen Xixi looked at the host calmly and said, "The answer is B."
Zheng He chuckled coldly, turned his head to glance at Chen Xixi, and said sarcastically, "Nice pickup!"
He can’t let others know he was the only one who couldn’t answer; maybe Chen Xixi guessed the last question right by luck.
But this time, Chen Xixi must have just seized the opportunity; he wanted everyone to know that Chen Xixi was no different from him!
However, right when the internet was ready to agree with Zheng He, thinking Chen Xixi got it right by chance, Chen Xixi didn’t even glance at Zheng He and said calmly to the host:
"The Canary Islands are named after the Canary Dog, so the answer is B."
The host’s eyes showed admiration as he nodded: "Correct!"
[My god! This lady actually knows!!]
[I almost thought Chen Xixi just got lucky with a guess, but it turns out she really has knowledge in her head!]
[If they were named after dogs, why aren’t they called Dog Islands?]
[Zheng He got a slap in the face, didn’t he? He mocked our Xixi for scavenging answers? Our Xixi speaks with real knowledge!]
Zheng He: "..." Damn it!
I always said I hated cultured people!
Now Chen Xixi has an opportunity to show off! Infuriating!
Host: "The third question, a sports one: the Tokyo Olympics of 2020 were held in which year?
A, 2019. B, 2020. C, 2021..."
Before the host could finish, Zheng He hurriedly interjected: "I know this one! C! The year 2021!"
"Congratulations, you’re correct!"
Zheng He finally felt redeemed in terms of intelligence.
All he needed was to answer one more question correctly to tie with Chen Xixi’s score!
Let’s see who dares to mock his IQ now!
Next, the host asked the fourth question: "Question four, a color question. What color is a sapphire?
A, blue. B, green. C, pink."
The elders also picked up on the host’s questioning logic, which seemingly was to avoid the color mentioned in the question!
Everyone started guessing blindly: "I choose C!"
"B! Green!"
Jin Cheng still adhered to his strategy of choosing C when in doubt, sticking to C.
Zheng He couldn’t shake the feeling that even if sapphire wasn’t blue, it definitely couldn’t be pink, so he picked green, which was somewhat related to blue.
The host, however, smiled and shook his head slowly: "So far, no correct answers!"
Everyone was bewildered: ??? How could it be that no one got it right?
Chen Xixi wasn’t too sure about this question either since she didn’t know much about gemstones. The host didn’t allow for mobile phones to look up the answers, so she decided to skip this question.
She was quietly eating a small cake by the long table when a boy around ten years old passed by the entrance of the banquet hall, loudly exclaiming: "Come on, feed!"
Chen Xixi subconsciously responded: "ABC!"
[Hahaha I’m still using sanitary pads!]
[Isn’t this the new secret code of the ’Brother Xiao’ group following ’Lone Brave’? Chen Xixi actually knows this too!]
[My son’s in third grade, constantly yelling ’come on, feed, ABC’ at home, and here I am, completely puzzled as an old mother...]
As soon as Chen Xixi finished speaking, the host in front excitedly announced: "Congratulations for the correct answer!"
Chen Xixi, finally hearing someone getting the answer right, looked up curiously to see who it was, only to find everyone’s gaze focused on her.
With one hand holding a half-eaten cake and a mouthful she hadn’t swallowed yet, her cheeks were slowly moving, the corners of her rosy lips smeared a bit with chocolate, she looked at the host, pointed to herself, and asked in a daze: "Huh? Me?"
"Yes, it’s you! The correct answer is ABC! Congratulations, you have earned another point!"
Chen Xixi swallowed the cake unhurriedly and politely said: "Thank you."
Zheng He was so jealous he was almost losing his mind on the spot, damn it, she guessed correctly again!
[Chen Xixi: I really caught a break this time, thanks to Brother Xiao.]
[Hahaha, who would have thought it was a multiple-choice question!]
[Sapphire, aside from ruby, is a term for all other colored gemstones! So the correct answer is ABC!]
"Two more questions left, everyone, seize the opportunity!" said the host: "Question five, a place of origin question. Where are snow peas originally from?
A, Holland. B, China. C, Western Asia."
Chen Xixi quickly answered: "C."
The host said: "Correct! In China, they are called snow peas, while in Holland they are known as ’Chinese beans’."
"Question six, a species question. Where does the French plane tree come from?
A, France. B, England. C, Canada."
Chen Xixi: "B, England!"
The host: "Congratulations once again on the correct answer! This thing is neither from France nor a plane tree, it’s completely misnamed."
While others were pondering and guessing blindly, Chen Xixi was always able to respond with the correct answers calmly.
Netizens, who were in it for the spectacle, began to hold a somewhat inexplicable admiration for Chen Xixi.
[Damn, I’m just going to say damn, these questions are insane!]
[Other than the first one, I got everything wrong.]
[I got them all right on the second try.]
