Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 221 If you can't fight, join.

The final competition of "Super Genius" has finally arrived.

The program not only features educational games that are popular among students of all ages, but it has also helped countless people learn a lot of knowledge, think critically, and fall in love with learning.

As a program suitable for all ages, it successfully broke out of its niche, with the number of viewers watching the live stream reaching an all-time high.

As is customary at the beginning, the host said, "After more than two months, we are all eagerly anticipating who will ultimately win the championship. Are you two nervous?"

Shi Sui shook her head, her eyes crinkling into a smile: "I'm not nervous, winning or losing isn't important."

The system silently read her thoughts: [Winning or losing doesn't matter, I came to participate in the show for a million.]

Comments flooded the screen: [This is hilarious! When she said that, Shi Sui's competitive spirit was practically written all over her face.]

[Haha, winning or losing doesn't matter, anyway, no one can beat me.]

[Sui Sui's beauty is stunning; she could easily rely on her looks, but her talent is exceptional.]

Xu Chaomu, with her sweet smile in his eyes, nodded slightly: "Yes, winning or losing isn't important."

Her gaze was gentle, and her smile was like the first melting snow.

[Holy crap, this is the first time I've seen Xu Chaomu laugh like this. I always thought he was a cold, aloof block of ice.]

[He just doesn't like to smile, it's not like he can't smile.]

[He only smiled at Sui Sui; it's not like he can't smile.]

[Smiling so affectionately, Leopard Cat, I'm born!]

...,

Next comes the tense and exciting question-and-answer session.

Xu Chaomu is not an insurmountable number one.

Although he didn't surpass Xu Chaomu in this monthly exam, Shi Sui got the same score as him, both ranking first.

After the winter camp and the show, Shi Sui discovered that she had an exceptional learning ability. Looking back on last year, she never dreamed that she would become so outstanding.

Shi Sui managed to answer the last question thanks to her quick reflexes.

The entire audience held their breath, waiting for the host to announce the results.

The host exclaimed excitedly, "Congratulations to Shi Sui for answering correctly! Congratulations to Shi Sui for becoming the first annual champion of 'Extraordinary Scholar'!"

[Well deserved!]

[I'm blown away by his handsomeness!]

[Trust Shih-Sui, and you won't fail your exams!]

Everyone relaxed, and the audience spontaneously stood up, applauding and congratulating them.

As the exciting music began and the crowd cheered, colorful ribbons fell and danced in the air.

Like a swarm of colorful butterflies flying in, carrying blessings.

Shi Sui looked up as the ribbons fell, as if she were having a grand, magnificent, and ethereal dream.

A faint sense of unreality enveloped his entire body.

She didn't smile; she seemed to be lost in thought.

As the ribbons fell, she inexplicably recalled many things from the past.

A street corner reeking of various unpleasant smells, a dilapidated wooden door, a messy room, a bed made of chairs and planks...

It wasn't until Xu Chaomu appeared in front of her that her wandering thoughts were pulled back to reality.

"Shi Sui, congratulations."

The host who wanted to interview the champion was pushed aside, and Xu Chaomu, who was closest to her, was the first to offer her her blessings.

Shi Sui subconsciously hummed in agreement, wanting to say something in response, but her mind was still preoccupied with past events, and she couldn't find the words to express herself.

Xu Chaomu leaned down to look at her more closely.

They were so close that their breaths were mingled with each other's scent.

Her heart raced, and Shi Sui wanted to back away.

Xu Chaomu: "Don't move."

Shi Sui obeyed and didn't back down.

Xu Chaomu reached out and wiped away a glitter the size of a fingernail from the corner of her lower eyelid.

He held out his hand to show her: "They're sequins mixed in with the ribbons."

Pink holographic, heart-shaped sequins.

Shi Sui looked up and smiled: "Heart-shaped ribbons, how romantic? Did the production team steal ribbons from the dating show next door?"

Xu Chaomu looked down at her: "I didn't steal it, I prepared the ribbons."

The moment their eyes met, all the surrounding noise seemed to disappear, and all that could be heard was the beating of their hearts.

The rhythm is out of control.

Just then, a voice broke in:

"Sui Sui, congratulations on winning the championship."

The host who wanted to interview the champion was pushed away again, but Pei Shuoxun arrived just in time and took Shi Sui's hand: "You should shake hands after winning the championship."

Then he took the opportunity to lead Shi Sui to his side.

Shi Sui remembered that Zhao Lin had also said he wanted to shake hands in the previous match, so she did not refuse.

She took Pei Shuoxun's hand and shook it up and down, smiling brightly: "Shake hands, shake hands, let me share my good fortune with you."

Xu Chaomu's cold gaze swept over Pei Shuoxun.

Upon meeting his gaze, Pei Shuoxun slightly raised his lips, his smile sly.

Xu Chaomu moved closer: "Shi Sui, I also want to share in the joy."

"Oh well!"

Without hesitation, Shi Sui pulled her hand away from Pei Shuoxun's, but was grabbed back the moment she pulled away, their fingers intertwined.

She was taken aback for a moment, but then realized that his smile was very natural and casual.

In the blink of an eye, it felt like stepping back in time, when he accompanied her countless times through dark, smelly street corners, opening dilapidated wooden doors...

He took her hand after she fell, and she couldn't refuse.

Shi Sui turned her head away and looked away.

Holding Xu Chaomu's hand with her other hand, Shi Sui said, "I'm giving you all my good fortune. Catch this good luck, and we'll both have a bright future."

Similar fates, a destiny-bound encounter.

Under this magnificent rain of ribbons, let us journey towards a brighter future.

……

The ribbons are not visually obstructive.

In the audience, Shangguan Ying clapped her hands, watching the spectacle: "One is a self-made genius, the other is his childhood friend with the deepest bond, a lunatic. Chi Yan, what do you say—"

Shangguan Ying turned her head to look at Chi Yan:

"Who do you think Sui Sui will choose?"

The cold ribbons fluttered and hit Chi Yan's head. He scratched his hair and tore off the yellow and blue ribbons.

Yellow + Blue = ?

My heart sank for a moment, but confidence prevailed.

"Of course, choose me."

The front row of the audience was not far from the stage. The boy strode over and jumped onto the stage.

……

The host, who wanted to interview the champion, saw the three holding hands and jumping around.

On a whim, I decided to interview the champion, runner-up, and third-place winners.

The host faced the camera and began the interview, almost handing the microphone to the camera.

Suddenly a figure flashed in front of him and shoved him aside.

Without saying a word, Chi Yan opened his arms and gave her a hug, forcefully squeezing the three of them in.

If you can't fight, join.

Shi Sui's hand was being held, and she had no way to push him away.

It happened so suddenly, there was no way to escape.

In short, her pupils dilated in shock as she fell into Chi Yan's arms.

“Pick me,” he said.

Youthful energy, passionate and fiery, forever in love.

A third party suddenly intrudes.

"Tsk, let go." Pei Shuoxun frowned and used his other hand to push Chi Yan away.

Xu Chaomu, with a cold face, pried open Chi Yan's hands that were holding Shi Sui.

Shi Sui: ? ? ?

Weren't they supposed to push Chi Yan away? Why are they all getting close to her?

Stop pushing! You're suffocating!

There was no other way; only violence could end the chaos.

Shi Sui erupted from her silence!

She twisted Pei Shuoxun's wrist and pulled her hand away from Xu Chaomu's.

After successfully freeing his hands, he pushed and kicked Chi Yan away.

Then, clenching his fist, he gave Pei Shuoxun and Chi Yan a punch each.

Colorful ribbons fluttered in the air, and everyone witnessed this most vibrant and exciting moment.

[Haha, is it acceptable for three guys to bully the weak Shi Sui? We'll have to watch Sui fight back!]

[So chaotic, hahaha! My husband is so energetic! Kicking people feels so good!]

[I want to hug Sui Sui too. She's dressed up like a mochi today; she looks so cute and cuddly.]

After quietly finishing her beating, Shi Sui loosened her fist and saw Xu Chaomu approaching.

She couldn't hold back her words and blurted out what she really thought: "Seriously? You want to get beaten up too?"

Xu Chaomu smiled and shook her head: "No, I want to hug you."

He said, "It's normal to hug after winning the championship."
