Cai Shiyu never expected that Lin Luoqing and Ji Yuxiao could get such a high score in the first half of the game. His eyes were full of surprise.
The other guests couldn’t believe it. They always felt as if they had returned to yesterday’s game scene, remembering the fear of being left behind by Ji Yuxiao.
“Now, I will trouble the two guests to change positions. The one who guessed will draw in the second half,” the host said with a smile.
The netizens looked at it and asked curiously, [It is Chairman Ji’s turn. I don’t know what level Chairman Ji is in drawing?]
[It is definitely no worse than Qing Qing [covers face].]
[What if? What if their drawing level is the same and that is why they can understand each other [amused]?]
[I don’t believe it. How can Chairman Ji’s level be the same as Qing Qing’s. I don’t believe it even if you kill me!]
[Chairman Ji is so versatile. He shouldn’t be dragged down by drawing.]
[No way, Chairman Ji is so awesome. I don’t accept it!]
[Me too! Come on, Chairman Ji. I believe in you!]
“Jiayou.” Lin Luoqing glanced at Ji Yuxiao when passing by him.
Ji Yuxiao turned around and smiled at him. He naturally raised a hand to touch Lin Luoqing’s head. “Okay.”
Lin Luoqing tilted his head to evade it, but he couldn’t dodge it. He had to let his head be patted by Ji Yuxiao. He walked to the seat where Ji Yuxiao had just been sitting and was eager to guess the idioms that Ji Yuxiao drew.
The host saw that they were both seated and announced, “Start.”
The staff member immediately raised the question board in her hand.
Lin Luoqing had his back to the staff member and couldn’t see the idioms in her hand. He could only see Ji Yuxiao lowering his head.
His heart was full of curiosity. He couldn’t help stretching out his neck and waited anxious. Then not long after, Ji Yuxiao raised the whiteboard.
His drawing was very concise, yet unusually vivid. There were just a few strokes but people could quickly guess what he wanted to say.
“Crouching tiger, hidden dragon,” Lin Luoqing answered.
“Smart.” Ji Yuxiao smiled at him.
The netizens exclaimed. [His drawing is so clear. I can tell it is crouching tiger, hidden dragon at a glance.]
[The tiger is lying on its stomach and the dragon is hiding behind the tree. It has both a dragon and a tiger. The gap in drawing level is too big!]
[Qing Qing, look. This is a normal tiger and dragon. What are yours?!]
[So Qing Qing, aren’t you ashamed when you see this drawing compared to your own drawing? [covers face].]
[Obviously not. Look at how happily he is smiling!]
[Not only is he happy. He is also very proud!]
[After all, Chairman Ji just praised him for being smart. How can he not be proud?]
[Chairman Ji, can’t you use yourself as a demonstration to teach him? Obviously, you draw very well!]
[Chairman Ji: Thank you for the invitation. Don’t ask. Asking is just spoiling my wife. My wife draws the best!]
[It isn’t just good, but also smart. As expected of you, Chairman Ji!]
Lin Luoqing got it right straight away and felt happy. He silently looked forward to the second idiom. Soon, he saw Ji Yuxiao lowering his head before raising the whiteboard after 10 seconds.
The whiteboard contained a dead man with a knife stuck in his face.
“There is a knife hidden in the smile.” Lin Luoqing didn’t hesitate.
“Awesome.” Ji Yuxiao continued to praise.
Lin Luoqing became even prouder in an instant.
[Oh my god, awesome Chairman Ji. This drawing is very vivid.]
[Chairman Ji’s drawing skills are very good. It is fast, concise and clear. It is very suitable for this type of game.]
[It can be seen from his drawing skills that he has a foundation in painting. He can draw such an image in a few strokes. It is certainly impossible if he hasn’t learned to paint.]
[That’s great. Chairman Ji is still the almighty male god. Cool cool cool, I love him so much!]
[Hahaha, now I am relieved. I no longer have to worry about the child’s art education.]
[No, Sister, why are you already thinking about children?]
[Shouldn’t it? Fast forward to getting married, fast forward to having children. What is the problem? [dog head].]
[Hahahaha, no, it is a pity that Qing Qing and Chairman Ji can’t give birth. Based on the genes of these two, how beautiful would their children be?!]
[Don’t say it, I’m already crying. Today, I’m crying for Chairman Ji and Qing Qing’s immortal looks.]
Under Ji Yuxiao’s accurate drawing skills, Lin Luoqing answered more and more idioms correctly. He answered one question correctly and Ji Yuxiao praised him. The words were never repeated. It was simply a toothache for the host and netizens.
[This is to show affection, right?? This is simply to show affection, right?!]
[I have a toothache. It really hurts!]
[If I have high blood sugar then don’t ask. The man in front of me did it! He is so capable of giving sugar!]
[It is so sweet. I rolled on the spot. I laughed like a fool on the bed.]
[Hahahaha, me too.]
Once the three minutes were up, Lin Luoqing also finished answering the last idiom. The host counted it. “Teacher Lin’s side is seven idioms. In addition, there are the eight idioms that Teacher Ji answered correctly in the first half for a total of 15. It is 15 points.”
“It is so high,” Yang Xinyue said enviously. “It is more than twice our score.”
She looked at her boyfriend. “It is too miserable for us.”
“It’s okay.” Li Zhiyuan sighed quietly. “Think about yesterday. We obviously set off together. but we couldn’t see him the whole time. If I hadn’t clearly remembered that it was clearly stated that there are five guests, I would’ve thought it was just the four of us.”
Yang Xinyue heard him say this and laughed. “Then it is even worse for you guys.”
“That’s right. At least we are together now and we can still see him. It is already very good,” Li Zhiyuan comforted her.
Lin Luoqing looked at his score and communicated with Ji Yuxiao in a low voice, “15 points. We should be first, right?”
“Probably.” Ji Yuxiao guessed it.
Both he and Lin Luoqing drew very quickly and guessed very quickly. No matter how good the guests behind them were, those guests wouldn’t be able to achieve the same points as them.
However, Ji Yuxiao didn’t have any obsession with winning or losing this game. This meant he didn’t think much of it. In any case, the worst result was now third place. It was okay.
Ji Yuxiao put his arm around Lin Luoqing’s shoulders and walked with him toward the bench where he was sitting.
Cai Shiyu hadn’t expected the two of them to be so powerful and was dissatisfied. He originally wanted to show off in this game. Even if the score was average, he would let everyone see his charm with his superb drawing skills.
However, judging from the reaction of the guests just now. Everyone was obviously more interested in Lin Luoqing’s abstract drawing method that didn’t follow the rules and Ji Yuxiao’s concise but surprisingly clear and intuitive drawing method.
Then wouldn’t he be unable to make a splash?
Cai Shiyu wasn’t reconciled. He always had his own cleverness. Since he lost the limelight, he had to find a way to regain it.
Therefore, he set his target on Ji Yuxiao, who had obviously learned to paint like him. He took the initiative to say, “Brother Ji, you are so good.”
Ji Yuxiao hadn’t expected that as soon as they sat down, Cai Shiyu would turn around and praise him. He could only say politely, “Thank you.”
“Brother Ji, you must’ve practiced painting too, right? I can see it instantly. You must’ve practiced sketching or something?’
Ji Yuxiao’s tone was indifferent. “Yes.”
“In fact, I also practiced since I was a child,” Cai Shiyu said positively. “It was only when I grew up that I changed to oil painting.”
“Oh.”
What did it have to do with him?
“Then we can paint together another day,” Cai Shiyu suggested enthusiastically.
He had already chatted with Lin Luoqing before the game started and Lin Luoqing obviously hadn’t rejected him. Now Ji Yuxiao just had to agree and he could use this to interact with them more. This way, he could appear in their footage and better use that popularity to let himself take off.
Cai Shiyu felt that Ji Yuxiao shouldn’t refuse. After all, they were both adults. Everyone had just met and they were still in the stage of mutual politeness. At this time, no one should embarrass another person by refusing them.
He was thinking this when he heard Ji Yuxiao calmly say, “No, I haven’t painted for many years.”
Cai Shiyu, “????”
Cai Shiyu was instantly embarrassed. Then he heard Li Jiamao laugh as if mocking him.
He was embarrassed in his heart. He couldn’t help saying hurriedly, “Forget it.”
After speaking, he turned around.
Li Jiamao saw that he was sitting down again and thought, ‘You deserve it. His boyfriend is sitting next to him but you directly invited him to paint together. Aren’t you afraid that his boyfriend will be unhappy?’
Did Cai Shiyu really think that everyone was a fake couple like them? Lin Luoqing and JI Yuxiao were officially announced lovers. Ji Yuxiao was on the show to accompany Lin Luoqing. How could he have the heart to be with others? How stupid.
Netizens felt refreshed: [Hahahaha, I like a man like Chairman Ji who directly refuses!]
[Do you see, Cai fans? This is Chairman Ji’s attitude toward your brother. Are you satisfied with what you see?]
[What’s going on with Cai Shiyu? Li Jiamao and Lin Luoqing are right there, but he directly said he wants to paint with Ji Yuxiao in the future. This is too heartfelt for Li Jiamao.]
[It is very annoying. Has he ever wondered if Lin Luoqing would like him painting with his boyfriend?]
[Fortunately, Chairman Ji rejected it. Otherwise, I would be angry with him!]
[How could Chairman Ji agree? Didn’t Chairman Ji have a perfunctory look of ‘Oh’ throughout the entire process?]
[Chairman Ji is probably also very annoyed. He was talking to Qing Qing just now, but he was interrupted.]
[Chairman Ji is really… quite a double standard [covers face]. When he treats Qing Qing, you can completely tell that he listens to everything. He doesn’t treat others like that.]
[Yes. Ji Yuxiao only loves Lin Luoqing. Is there anyone who doesn’t know that? [amused].]
Lin Luoqing saw Cai Shiyu turn around before asking Ji Yuxiao, “Why?”
“What why?”
“You just said you haven’t painted for many years. Why?”
“Of course, I don’t want to?” Ji Yuxiao looked at him. “What else could it be?”
“Don’t you like it?”
Ji Yuxiao shook his head. “It isn’t about whether I like it or not. My brother taught me when I was a child and I followed him to learn. Later, he was busy and didn’t have time to teach me any longer. Therefore, I stopped learning.”
He thought for a moment. “It feels like graduating. Do you still want to do homework after graduation? You wouldn’t wait to either.”
Lin Luoqing laughed immediately. “I really don’t want to.”
“But if you want to learn, I can teach you.” Ji Yuxiao’s tone was gentle. “Do you want to?”
“Haven’t I graduated? What is this? Returning to school to become a teacher?”
“What can I do as a teacher? I only teach you. It is almost the same as being a private tutor.”
The smile on Lin Luoqing’s face deepened. “At this time, are you willing to paint again?”
“Isn’t it true that unemployment or employment after graduation depends on the individual’s own thoughts?”
“Then let me think about it,” Lin Luoqing said proudly. “I think my painting skills are really good right now. I don’t need make-up lessons.”
Ji Yuxiao nodded with a smile. “That’s true.”
Netizens: [???!!! Are you serious? I don’t see any drawings. Don’t play tricks on me!]
“But I don’t seem to draw as vividly as you,” Lin Luoqing said again.
[Oh my god.] Netizens were shocked. [Qing Qing, you also know that you aren’t as good as Chairman Ji? It clearly has nothing to do with vividness!]
“But your drawings have more soul.”
Ji Yuxiao stared into his eyes with a smile. “I only draw the appearance of things and there is no soul. You are different. You draw the soul and it has a style. So you draw better.”
Netizens: [???????]
[Is he serious? Is he really serious?]
[People can’t do this. At the very least, they can’t be so unconscionable!]
[Hahaha, how do you know that Chairman Ji has no conscience? I think Chairman Ji is very sincere! [dog head]]
[That’s right. Our Chairman Ji clearly spoke with a conscience.]
[Then his conscience really won’t hurt!]
[Of course. He only has Qing Qing in his heart. His conscience naturally only has Qing Qing [amused].]
[Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The soul is in Chairman Ji’s eyes. There is no problem.]
[Am I the only one who noticed Chairman Ji’s double standard? In front, there is ‘I haven’t painted in many years’ to Cai Shiyu. In the back, there is ‘I can teach you’ to Qing Qing.]
[Hey, isn’t this normal? Can his wife compare with colleagues he hasn’t exchanged more than a few words with?]
[It is especially when the colleagues just arrived at the company yesterday and you all just met.]
[Didn’t Chairman Ji say that he only wants to be a private tutor? He only wants to teach Qing Qing~~]
[You can do this, Chairman Ji. Really teach your wife!]
[Chairman Ji: But I only listen to my wife.]
[Hahahaha, it is very sweet! Who is dying of sweetness, who is dying of sweetness?]
[It is too great, too great. I can’t stop at all. I am crazy for this CP.]
[Who would’ve thought that I was just a noble passerby yesterday, but today I am a Passion-filled chicken who only knows how to scream!]
[Don’t blame us for being too capable of eating. Just blame Passion for being too charming! This sugar comes in waves. Who can bear it?]
