When Guan Yu and Li Yang finished eating the bag of chips, and Mu Qiu and the others had devoured their taro snacks, the director finally picked up the little gaphone again.
"Oh, by the way, there’s also an announcent about Mu Qiu. Bringing snacks into the workspace greatly affected the speed at which the guests completed their tasks."
Mu Qiu: "......"
Little brother, what do you an by affecting the speed at which guests complete tasks?
She stood up and seriously corrected his statent word by word: "I was replenishing energy for the guests, helping them to complete tasks better. Proper rest is essential for higher efficiency."
Guan Yu wiped her mouth with a napkin and casually comnted, "An old news person, perfectly aligning with the work the of positive energy."
Director: "......" These two are really annoying with their back-and-forth.
He scooted his small stool forward and raised his voice through the gaphone: "Are there any questions? If not, I’ll announce the rankings, then the prizes and penalties, and after that, we can eat."
"Great!" Guan Yu cheered, "I like it straightforward! So does anyone have questions?"
"Yes," Li Yang raised his hand, "Where can I buy this electronic screen? I want to get one with math problems for my nephew."
Guan Yu, speechless: "...Please, have so rcy."
Mu Qiu leaned forward, her red hair tie and long hair falling together onto her chest: "Honestly, I want one too."
"Why do you need one? Does your nephew also have an unreliable aunt?"
"I just think it’s really cool."
With this, system novels might be easier to write.
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the director, "Director, do you have a link? A discount?"
Guan Yu glanced at the director, then translated his look and expression for free: "The director seems like he wants to hit you."
The director’s exasperated voice ca through the gaphone: "If you want to buy it, please contact the manufacturer yourself. Any other questions?"
"Yes."
This ti, Shu Ran stood up.
She asked a question that had been bothering her for a long ti, sothing she really wanted to know.
"Director, do you also understand postpartum care for sows?"
"......"
The director almost threw down his gaphone and walked off.
Although he didn’t leave in the end, he was tempted many tis, especially as Shu Ran’s question led to more bizarre and incessant inquiries from the rest.
For instance—
Li Yang: "Director, do you know 2W I₂ 2Fe=2Wife? Tell which chemistry teacher made this question, I want to et them."
Guan Yu: "Was it Tony the study-abroad returnee who made my question?"
Shi Yuhuai: "Why was there a stall selling smiley stickers right where I was running? Why were there no higher scaffolds?"
Mu Qiu: "Why does my brother insist on dramatic ups and downs in my love and hate journey?"
Guan Yu: "Why do I, as Sailor Moon, have to drive a trike? What did I do wrong?"
Li Yang: "Which fan specifically requested I wear this outfit? Director, just tell the na quietly."
Mu Qiu: "I bought two rockets for the show via tablet. Can I get a refund?"
Guan Yu: "Why is my story a tragedy? Where is my blind date partner?"
Shu Ran: "Are you all taking a donkey cart back later? I’ve paid for the rental."
Cheng Zhirang: "What punishnt does the loser have to accept?"
Everyone was chattering non-stop, and he couldn’t get a word in to answer.
Once they finished blabbering, he chose selectively to respond.
"For those wanting refunds on rockets, no chance."
Mu Qiu snorted.
As for the other questions, it was as if the whole world had gone deaf just now. The director took the statistics handed over by the staff and directly announced the rankings.
"The order of passing the test, combined with task completion tis, results in the overall ranking—"
"Shi Yuhuai first, Cheng Zhirang second, Mu Qiu third, Shu Ran fourth, Li Yang fifth, Guan Yu sixth from the top but last from the bottom."
Guan Yu: "Please remove the last four words, thank you."
Director: "No thanks, I won’t remove them."
"......Director, you’re so rebellious."
The rebellious director collected the stats and said to everyone: "Let’s give a round of applause for Brother Huai, who turned things around!"
Everyone applauded energetically, Shi Yuhuai stood in the middle clapping for himself too, following the sequence "pa.papa.papapa" gradually increasing.
After the applause ended, the director added, "In our considered scope, each of you should have completed the task, even if the ti taken varied.
However, according to this ranking, there’s soone among you who hasn’t fully completed their task."
"???" Soone hasn’t completed their task?
Li Yang: "No way? If the task wasn’t complete, why did the electronic screen announce the ga’s end?"
Director: "Because the sun was setting, and we were getting nervous, thinking since it’s the last rank anyway, it doesn’t really matter."
Last rank?
Mu Qiu and the others slowly turned their heads to look at the bewildered Guan Yu in the middle.
Guan · Last Place · Yu: "What? I haven’t completed my task?"
The director asked: "What was your task?"
"...A blind date?"
"So did you find a date?"
"No, but I searched for a long ti and couldn’t find my date, so I gave up!"
The director pressed further: "Where did you search?"
"At the rice cake shop, wasn’t he my neighbor? But aside from a creepy Brother Cheng passing by, there were only so burly guys beating up."
Guan Yu paused at this point, "No way, no way? Is my blind date one of those burly guys who fell in love with beating up?"
Mu Qiu with a caveman expression: "You really have an imagination."
Cheng Zhirang tilted his head to look at Guan Yu: "Didn’t I tell you at the start to find your blind date at the academy?"
Guan Yu: "But there was no one at the academy either."
Director: "Who told you there was no one?"
"...So where is my Xiao Cao? Do I still have a chance?"
Li Yang fiddled with the gold chain on him, gloating: "Looks like there’s no chance. You missed the long-awaited perk."
Guan Yu: "Little Sakura cried."
"Actually, there’s still a chance," the director changed his posture and said, "Both you and Brother Cheng have perks, but having these perks cos with conditions. Brother Cheng needs to complete three tasks, and you will first endure bitterness and then sweetness."
"So where’s my sweetness? When is it coming?"
The director gave her a aningful expression.
Three minutes later, Mu Qiu and the others witnessed the final entertainnt performance before the end of the fourth episode.
Perforrs: Guan Yu, and her blind date partner Xiao Cao.
The director spoke from behind the cara: "For completeness and fairness in tasks, I believe we need to complete Guan Yu’s task for this episode to be considered complete."
Mu Qiu stared at the two blind date participants sitting in the middle, clapping exaggeratedly: "The director is always right! Sister Guan Yu, are you happy?"
Guan Yu looked at the chains expert sitting across her, equally shocked and disbelieving, and swallowed hard.
"......Happy."
