Chapter 254 Where is the Braised Shrimp?



Xin Sui pinched Xiao Guang's little chubby hand and said to him, "Your mom is going to win."

Sure enough, the thick fog soon dissipated, and Bai Jun lay on the ground like a dead dog, no longer able to fight.

Xuanwei, on the other hand, was still standing there perfectly fine.

The host walked up to Bai Jun and counted to 10, but Bai Jun still couldn't stand up.

He had no choice but to announce regretfully, "Number 43 wins!"

A chorus of boos erupted from the audience.

"What's going on? Bai Jun's superpowers are so strong, how could he lose?"

"That woman tricked us!"

"mean!"

Xuanwei ignored all this nonsense, strode back to the waiting area, and exchanged a high five with Xin Sui.

The two exchanged a glance, and everything was understood without a word.

In the first round of competition, Lou Kun's base won all three matches and scored 3 points.

This result is enough to rank them in the top five.

Although all three matches were over, Xin Sui and the others stayed and continued watching.

See what special abilities the contestants from other bases have, and what their fighting style is.

We might run into each other in a later match.

The more we know now, the better our chances of winning will be when the fight comes.

There are 45 contestants in total, competing in pairs, so one person is destined to remain.

The remaining person will automatically advance.

"Now that all 22 games have been played, let's see who the lucky one who is left is."

The host pressed a button on the remote control in his hand, and the areas of the numbers drawn on the turntable on the big screen went dark, leaving only one area lit up.

The number "38" was clearly displayed on that area.

Host: "Congratulations to contestant number 38, you have automatically advanced to the next round of the competition."

A cheer erupted from the Big Sheep Base to the right of Lou Kun's base.

"Yay! I'm number 38! I'm automatically promoted!"

It was none other than Zou Qiang, who had been trying to cut in line for Xin Sui's group.

Xin Sui was somewhat surprised. Had she wronged the Solar Base?

She had thought this Lucky Star would belong to the Solar Base.

If the Sun Base dared to secretly target the people at the Lou Kun Base, it's not impossible that they would manipulate the turntable behind the scenes.

No, if the Solar Base were to act so blatantly, it would definitely arouse suspicion and dissatisfaction from other bases.

Therefore, this lucky number cannot fall into their own hands.

When the group returned to the hotel, Xiao Guang immediately ran to his egg and touched it with his little hand.

"Mommy, when will the egg hatch into a duckling?"

Xuanwei slumped onto the sofa, her long legs, encased in boots, propped up on the coffee table.

"Who told you that was a duck egg? That's a monster egg, and inside is a really scary monster."

"When everyone is asleep at night, the monster will crawl out of its egg, climb onto the bed, and gulp you down in one bite."

She also made exaggerated eating gestures to make her words more believable.

Xiao Guang was so scared that he dared not touch the egg. He ran behind Xin Sui and hugged her leg.

Xin Sui lovingly embraced him, giving Xuan Wei a reproachful look, "You're scaring the child again."

She hugged Xiaoguang close to her and said, "Don't be afraid. Your mother is just teasing you. She's just greedy and wants to eat that egg."

Xuanwei laughed heartily, "Xiaoli understands me best."

Who is Xiao Li?

Lou Zhan arrived at the door without warning and suddenly asked a question.

Xuanwei's laughter stopped abruptly.

Oops, I let it slip.

Xin Sui wasn't guilty at all. "You know perfectly well why I'm asking. Besides Xiao Wei and Xiao Guang, it's just me here. Who else could Xiao Li be but me?"

Lou Zhan: "When did Second Brother start calling her Xiao Li?"

Xin Sui: "What's it to you? What are you doing here?"

Lou Zhan: "I'm here to ask you, are you going to eat dinner downstairs or should I bring it up for you?"

Xin Sui: "I brought my own food, so you don't need to worry about it. Just take care of yourself."

He pushed him aside and shouted into the next room:

"Little Deer Peipei, come to my room for dinner. Hurry up, there's braised prawns, braised shark fin, and grilled crab legs. If you're late, Xiao Wei will eat them all."

Ruan Peipei rushed out impatiently, "They're here! They're here! Where are the braised prawns?"

Qiao Lu chased after her with her coat, saying, "Put your clothes on properly."

Xin Sui ushered the two into the room and slammed the door shut in front of Lou Zhan.

Lou Zhan: "..."

How can you so brazenly leave me out to eat all by yourself?

Of course, I'm happy to accept this.

She could go even further.

Soon, Lou Zhan smelled various fragrances wafting from the room.

The fragrance hooked his nose like a sniff, making him unable to resist taking a deep sniff.

He knew he should leave; staying would only make him feel worse.

But I still couldn't bear to leave.

Lou Kai, you've really gone too far!

Inside the house, Xin Sui and the others happily showed off the delicious food.

After eating, they lie sprawled out on the sofa or bed.

Qiao Lu suddenly sat up. "By the way, Young Master Kai, I have something to show you."

She pulled a piece of paper from her pocket, which listed the contestants' numbers for the day's head-to-head matches, as well as the bases to which these contestants belonged.

After reading it, Xin Sui took out the booklet that Lou Zhan had given her before, compared the two, and came to a conclusion.

"Solar Base did indeed tamper with the turntable."

"The players from their base were facing players from several bases that ranked at the bottom in the previous competition, so they won very easily and got a perfect score of 3 points in the first round."

"And there's the Big Sheep Base, the situation is the same as the Sun Base."

Qiao Lu nodded, "That's right. These two bases may have reached some kind of agreement in private, so the Sun Base transferred the Lucky Star to the Big Sheep Base today."

"This way, we can both get benefits from the Big Sheep Base and avoid cheating too obviously and arousing suspicion from others."

Ruan Peipei asked curiously, "This shouldn't be hard to notice, so why haven't those large bases made any announcements?"

While engrossed in eating shrimp, Xuanwei took a moment to ask, "How do you know they didn't say anything?"

"Perhaps it wasn't just the Sun Base and the Big Sheep Base that reached an agreement in private, but several of the top-ranked bases joined in, like snakes and rats in the same nest."

"In that case, they'd be too busy covering it up to deliberately reveal the truth."

Xin Sui: "Lou Kun hasn't mentioned it to me. Either Lou Kun's base has been excluded, or Lou Kun felt it was unnecessary to tell me. Which possibility do you think is more likely?"

Qiao Lu: "I think it's the former. Caiyun Base, Taiyang Base, Dayang Base, and Dahao Base were the top four in the previous year, while Loukun Base was fifth."

Xin Sui exchanged a glance with her and slowly said, "These four bases seem to want to join forces to annex Lou Kun's base."

Xuanwei licked the juice off her fingers. "It's not just that it seems like it, it is."

Ruan Peipei asked, "How did you know?"

Xuanwei: "Intuition."

A woman's intuition, and a superhuman's intuition about danger, are both very accurate.

Xin Sui peeled a shrimp and fed it to Xiao Guang, saying, "Looks like tonight is going to be a bit turbulent."
