Chapter 274 Can I abstain?



There's still one last question left to be asked, so the competition isn't over yet.

Soon, the final question was finally presented. Wang Qingge knew that although he had completely lost, he would not give up until the very last moment.

So, after thinking for a few minutes, Wang Qingge gave the final answer to this last question.

After Chen Xin gave her answer, the correct answer was revealed.

To everyone's surprise, Wang Qingge answered correctly on the last try.

However, at this point, no one could be happy anymore, because Wang Qingge had already lost twice.

So even if he wins the last question, it won't change anything.

He was the one who lost; Chen Xin was the ultimate winner.

After the competition ended, the two hosts excitedly said, "Alright, everyone."

"The Lucky Egg competition has come to a complete end. Let's all congratulate contestant Chen Xin."

"Congratulations to her for becoming the final champion this time. Congratulations."

"Ah, ah!"

"Slap, slap."

The audience screamed with excitement and gave Chen Xin the loudest applause.

Looking at all this, Wang Qingge felt a little dazed; it was all very unfamiliar to him.

He had always thought that with the system, he would be the ultimate winner, but reality played a cruel joke on him.

Now, looking at Chen Xin, surrounded by everyone's support, he could only silently offer his blessings.

Although he was disappointed at not being the final winner, he had no choice but to accept it.

Vivian Hsu also rushed over to comfort him, saying, "Qingge, are you alright? I'm sorry, I'm so useless."

"It's alright, no one can be blamed for this," Wang Qingge said helplessly.

But Vivian Hsu could still hear the resentment and regret in his heart.

"But you're not the final winner, so you won't be able to personally unlock the secret Easter egg left behind by Yan Ranran."

Wang Qingge may have thought so before, but things are different now.

He has accepted reality since he lost.

Actually, as long as Yan Ranran's secret Easter egg can be unlocked, it doesn't matter who unlocks it.

Therefore, Wang Qingge comforted Vivian Hsu again, saying, "It doesn't matter anymore, whether I uncovered the secret or not."

"We'll find out in the end, and that's enough. Why bother with all the fuss?"

"Alright." Seeing Wang Qingge say this herself, Vivian Hsu nodded helplessly.

...

But to Wang Qingge's surprise, there really were people who didn't want him to know the secret.

That person is Yan Ranran.

Yan Ranran wanted to keep the secret she had kept from Wang Qingge.

So she wanted to contact the director of the Lucky Egg program directly.

No matter how much it costs, Yan Ranran must prevent her secret from being revealed.

Even if she can't change the rules of the show, the final winner unlocks the Easter egg.

But if she wanted to, she could still change the rules so that the secret of the Easter egg could only be known by the final winner and could not be revealed.

In this situation, Yan Ranran believed that as long as she was willing to spend the money, the director would agree.

Money and material possessions are no longer of any use to Yan Ranran; she only cares about other things.

What worried Yan Ranran was that she tried calling the director of the Lucky Egg program several times but he didn't answer.

While Yan Ranran was extremely anxious, things continued on the scene.

Host Lü Xiaojiang looked at Chen Xin and then at everyone, announcing, "Alright, everyone, let's all congratulate Chen Xin on becoming the final winner."

"Please, Chen Xin, come to the middle."

The host called Chen Xin over so that he could shower her with flowers.

But Chen Xin spoke up at this moment: "Wait a minute, host."

Chen Xin suddenly spoke, catching everyone off guard. They all thought she had something to say.

Just as Chen Xin opened her mouth to speak, Yan Ranran, who had been on the phone trying to contact the program director, was on the other end.

She finally got her call answered by the director.

Upon seeing the director answer the phone, Yan Ranran got straight to the point without saying a word, and said what she wanted to say.

But just as she was about to speak, she saw Chen Xin on the other side of the scene finally speak as well.

Suddenly, Chen Xin asked, "Host, may I abstain?"

"ah!"

Chen Xin's words startled everyone, especially Yan Ranran, who immediately felt a sense of foreboding when she heard them.

She felt that Chen Xin's sudden announcement of abstaining was definitely a disadvantage for her.

There is a high probability that what the other party will do next will be the opposite of what Yan Ranran did.

Sure enough! The host was quite surprised to hear Chen Xin say that.

"Chen Xin, what are you saying? Why are you abstaining? Why would you abstain when you have nothing to do?"

But Chen Xin seemed to have already made a decision; her attitude was very firm.

"Yes, host, may I abstain and not be the final winner?"

"Ah, this, this."

Chen Xin finally said those words, words that surprised many people.

For Yan Ranran, Chen Xin's words were undoubtedly a devastating blow.

Yan Ranran originally thought that as long as Chen Xin won, she could use her connections to get the director to change the rules at the last minute.

As long as Chen Xin doesn't reveal the secrets Yan Ranran left behind, everything will be fine.

But now, Chen Xin suddenly announced her withdrawal, not wanting to be the final winner, which shattered Yan Ranran's dream.

If Chen Xin isn't the ultimate winner, then the one who will ultimately triumph is undoubtedly Wang Qingge.

If Wang Qingge succeeds and becomes the ultimate winner, then is it still necessary for Yan Ranran to do those things?

It's pointless now, so when I heard Chen Xin say she was giving up and didn't want to be the final winner...

Yan Ranran's heart was pierced again at that moment.

The secret she desperately wanted to protect, the secret she desperately didn't want Wang Qingge to know, is now likely to be completely lost.

She still had a glimmer of hope, but Chen Xin's final decision brought it all to a complete end.

Upon hearing Chen Xin's words, Yan Ranran momentarily forgot to make the call.

The program director on the other end of the phone was also displeased when she remained silent for a long time.

"Hey Yan Ranran, what's up? Why did you call me?"

Hearing the director's angry tone, Yan Ranran finally came to her senses and said, "I'm sorry, director."
