甜蜜的小狐狸

The fans in front of their screens were shocked, and the on-screen comments that were flying up stopped.

For a moment, everyone froze on the spot.

They had just gotten hold of the fresh news that their idol, Gu Ziheng, actually had a girlfriend and they were living together?

After a momentary pause, the onscreen comments exploded!

“Ah, the woman next to you, take your hands off!!”

“You come out now!! I want to fight you to the death!”

“My idol, my heart hurts!”

While the fans were feeling sad, the haters quickly arrived.

“He just made a comeback and it’s jeopardized instantly with the appearance of his girlfriend!! ”

“I’m dying of laughter. Is it your girlfriend appearing? Why are you so concerned? This young man, after retiring for so many years, what’s wrong with him being in a relationship now?”

Although the fans were heartbroken over the suspicion of dating and cohabiting, they immediately unleashed their firepower to defend him against the haters.

The newly minted “mom fans” turned into fierce warriors, each one stronger than the last.

As a result, within half an hour of the broadcast, everything from Gu Ziheng’s comeback, his appearance on “Super Brain,” and his alleged dating and cohabiting with a mysterious woman dominated the Weibo hot search.

Gu Ziheng’s manager frantically messaged him, asking him to clarify the situation quickly.

Gu Ziheng smiled and explained to the fans in front of the screen, “She’s not my girlfriend.”

Just as the fans were about to breathe a sigh of relief, he added, “But she might be in the future.”

Hence, the onscreen and Weibo comments section exploded again.

In the Gu Corporation’s office, Gu Shiyan accidentally clicked on the trending news on weibo.

Did this little Gu Ziheng want to die?

A phone call was dialed immediately.

On the other end of the phone, Gu Ziheng saw the incoming call, decisively hung up, and then added the number to the blocklist.

At the same time, he regretted that he had only managed to capture Lu Miao’s neck and below in the photo just now. If he had captured her face as well, it would have been the perfect opportunity to openly pursue her.

After the elimination round, “Super Brain” was left with only three contestants, just like the international contestants. These three would form the Chinese team to compete against the international team.

The final three contestants would compete in a series of three challenges. The first challenge was finding differences in a wall of Rubik’s Cubes, with 10,000 randomly scrambled cubes forming two walls. The participants had to identify three spots where the cubes were different.

The second challenge involved mental calculations based on audience-provided numbers, performing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division with seven- or eight-digit numbers.

The third challenge consisted of 50 different objects made up of magnetic balls with a diameter of only two millimeters. The audience would randomly select three objects, and the participants had to observe and quickly report the total number of magnetic balls used to construct each object.

The total time taken for all three challenges would determine the winner. The team with the shortest time would emerge victorious.

This would test the captain’s judgment and tactical arrangements, accurately assessing the difficulty of each challenge and assigning them to the most skilled team members.

Out of the three challenges, the first one, the wall of Rubik’s Cubes, appeared visually overwhelming but was actually the easiest. Once the participants found the pattern, they could quickly identify the differences.

The second challenge, mental calculations, seemed simple, but performing calculations with seven or eight-digit numbers was quite challenging. Especially with the live broadcasting pressure, surrounding distractions, and the psychological stress of the competition, it was not easy to calculate quickly and accurately.

The third challenge, which involved calculating the number of magnetic balls in various complex shapes, was clearly the most difficult. Not only were the objects challenging to analyze, but some of them were also hollow, making it impossible to use formulas for calculation.

This competition was not only about personal honor but also a competition for national pride and dignity!

Luo Miao explained and analyzed the characteristics of each challenge to her teammates. She quickly simulated the known information for them to test on-site, allowing them to choose their own challenges based on the test results.

Naturally, the most difficult third challenge was left to Luo Miao.

Xu Tao hesitated and said, “Team leader, are you confident about the third challenge? We have no clue about it.”

It was strange that these two grown men were leaving all the pressure on a seemingly fragile girl like Luo Miao.

Luo Miao patted their shoulders and reassured them, “Don’t worry, just focus on doing your best.”

The third challenge was indeed challenging, but it was merely a waste of time for Luo Miao and not something she couldn’t handle.

Seeing her confidence, the two men finally relaxed and let go of their concerns.

Oddly enough, although Luo Miao appeared delicate, she stood there, inexplicably making people feel reliable and at ease.

After both teams were arranged, the host gestured for them to take their positions.

The two teams passed by each other.

In the opposing team, the R-country participant who had previously taunted them in their resting room made a disdainful gesture behind the camera, out of its view.

The other two foreign participants wore expressions of contempt, their eyes almost reaching the top of their heads.

Luo Miao held back the anger rising within Xu Tao and Wang Meng and said, “Provocation is also a psychological strategy. Ignore them and focus on the competition. ”

The competition began, and on the large screen, two colorful walls of Rubik’s cubes appeared.

This challenge was similar to the spot-the-difference game, but each Rubik’s cube was composed of a dozen different-colored small cubes. Each wall consisted of 5,000 cubes, making it much more challenging to identify the differences at a glance.

Xu Tao quickly identified one difference according to the method they had analyzed and discussed with Luo Miao before.

Before he could continue to find the next difference, the foreign participant on the opposing team had already marked all three differences.

Keeping his composure, Xu Tao did his best to quickly find the other two differences.

Despite his efforts, the two teams still had a 15-second time difference for the first challenge.

Feeling guilty, Xu Tao said, “I’m sorry, team leader. I slowed you down.”

Luo Miao glanced at the opposing participant, lost in thought, and said, “Don’t worry too much. You did well.”

Huaguo’s team had already lost the first round and with a significant gap. The foreign participants were even more arrogant.

Fortunately, in the second challenge where the audience provided the questions, Wang Meng’s strong mental arithmetic skills won them a round.

After solving three questions, they managed to close the gap by ten seconds.

The time difference between the two teams was now reduced to five seconds.

Seeing this, the host, guests, and the audience couldn’t help but feel relieved.

Although the third challenge seemed difficult, considering Luo Miao’s consistently extraordinary performances, recovering five seconds of time difference was a piece of cake for her.

In this semifinal, Chinese team had practically secured victory!
