Chapter 64 The Nanny's Niece's Counterattack
However, she soon realized she was overthinking things. Of course, one should avoid taking a loss if possible. If you get used to taking a loss, you'll be taking a loss every day. She wasn't that kind of person to suffer.
So you still have to learn, and you have to study hard. As for losing money, let's just forget about it.
Finally, the day of the Clinical Medicine Competition arrived. The individual and team competitions were separate, roughly in the morning and afternoon sessions.
Because the competition venue wasn't at University A, the four of them went with their school's teachers. Speaking of which, we have to mention the teams from University A participating in this medical competition. Including their team, there were a total of ten teams, so when they went to an unfamiliar place together, Zheng Wenhua didn't feel scared at all, only at ease.
Lin Wei has participated in so many competitions, running around every day, that she wouldn't be afraid of a competition held in City A.
"Are you confident?" Zheng Wenhua couldn't help but look at Lin Wei and ask.
Lin Wei shook her head. "I'm not confident." Who knows if Chi Boyan is participating in the individual or team competition? If it's an individual competition, it's fine, it's just a duel between her and him. But if it's a team competition, sorry, looking at her teammates, she felt that they were doomed to lose.
Those who could persuade Chi Boyan to join must not be ordinary college students; they must at least be presentable. However, she just randomly joined a team and had no idea of their abilities.
Zheng Wenhua's laughter vanished upon hearing this. "You're not kidding me, are you?" If even she wasn't confident, then what were these oddballs and deformed individuals? Were they just a disgrace?
Lin Wei looked up at her and said, "Do you think I'm joking with you?" There was no smile in her eyes.
Zheng Wenhua shook her head. "It doesn't seem like it."
"That settles it."
A group of people quickly signed in and entered the venue under the teacher's guidance. But Lin Wei's worst fear came true. This time, he didn't go alone, but chose to team up.
Her gaze fell on a familiar face in the crowd, a hint of surprise in her eyes. He didn't seem like the type to team up with others. However, the team competition was scheduled for the morning, while only the individual competition was in the afternoon, so Chi Boyan's presence here was self-evident.
The others around him clearly seemed to follow his lead blindly.
When Chi Boyan saw her, he raised an eyebrow in surprise. He had thought she was participating in the individual competition, but he didn't expect that she was participating in the team competition just like him.
He said something to the person next to him, then walked straight towards her, "What a coincidence, I didn't expect you to participate in this kind of boring team competition." If the teacher hadn't said he needed to build up his resume, he would have just signed up for the individual competition. So he could only pick a few teammates from among the shorter ones.
However, it seems that the people she chose are even worse than his. Chi Boyan's gaze fell on the group of people who were clearly nervous. "These are the teammates you chose. They don't seem very good either." His evaluation was more condescending than friendly.
Zheng Wenhua and the others were quite angry at what they were being said. "Who are you? What right do you have to say that?" If it weren't for their cultural refinement, they would have started swearing at this point.
Chi Boyan scoffed, "You'll find out soon enough what qualifications you have." He acted as if he had only come over to greet Lin Wei and provoke her, and then left quickly.
Lin Wei: "Boring." I didn't expect that after not seeing her for a while, she still had the same temper, which was a bit annoying.
At this moment, the three people next to her turned to her and asked, "Who is he? Why is he so arrogant?" They were students in the Department of Clinical Medicine at University A, and they had scored very high on the college entrance examination to get in. What gave him the right to look down on them?
Qi Yan's focus remained on the competition: "Will we lose?"
Lin Wei looked at her and said, "If you can read all the information I sent, the outcome is still 50/50. If not, then it's up to fate." She was still in the mood to joke at this moment.
If I don't laugh, can I cry? The worst that can happen is that I lose.
However, the people around him couldn't accept it. "How can you still laugh?" They were about to lose, and he was still so indifferent.
Lin Wei: "What can we do? Should we cram at the last minute?" To be honest, she was also surprised. She had originally planned to meet him during the individual competition, but she didn't expect to meet him so soon.
If you ask her what to do, to be honest, she really doesn't know.
Meanwhile, after Chi Boyan returned to the team, his teammates looked at him curiously and asked, "Chi God, do you know that person? Isn't that from A University?"
Chi Boyan glanced at him. "Why would I go there if I don't know her? For her looks?
That's such a lame joke.
"I must say, she's quite pretty," a teammate muttered from behind, drawing the attention of the entire team.
With people this close, who wouldn't hear us?
That person immediately shut up.
The three-day competition began with a theoretical knowledge test on the first day, primarily conducted in a buzzer-style format. All participating teams were paired up and competed in a buzzer-style format. Even if a team lost a buzzer-style question, there was no elimination process, and all teams advanced to the next day's competition.
This means that any team can complete the three-day process. The only difference is that the organizers will calculate the total score and determine the first, second, and third place winners. The top ten teams will also receive a participation prize.
Unfortunately, Lin Wei's team was matched with Chi Boyan's team.
Looking at the number drawn, Zheng Wenhua couldn't help but curse, "You have terrible luck."
Ou Ziming said innocently, "You asked me to draw, so it's not my fault." He had already said that he had bad luck, but she still didn't believe him.
But that's fine too; he wants to see what right that person has to say those words.
Because of this, the three of them actually discussed it for a moment, then turned to Lin Wei and said, "Could you talk to that person and ask if the two of you won't participate, and if so, can our group members have an inter-group competition?" They wanted to see where the difference lay between them.
The main reason is that none of the three of them think they will win an award. There are too many teams; if you count them, there are almost two hundred teams.
Lin Wei, upon hearing this, showed a rare hint of confusion. "Are you sure?" she asked. "Based on my understanding of him, the people he chooses can't be anything less than capable." So what exactly are they thinking?
With her around, even if we don't do well in the first round of quizzes, we won't be too bad. As for the competitions tomorrow and the day after, we'll talk about that when the time comes.
By doing this, isn't she just handing the victory to the other side? Although it's not good for her to be pessimistic right now, it's true, but they especially don't want to hear this truth.
It's probably because everyone else has a lot of confidence in their teammates, but she doesn't believe in their feelings of disappointment.
Fortunately, Lin Wei didn't know, otherwise she would have just stared at them expressionlessly. She wanted to have confidence in them, but they also needed to have the ability to give her confidence.
At this moment, she was even more grateful for her foresight. Luckily, she signed up for the individual race, otherwise... well, it wouldn't have mattered. It's all about participation, and finishing the whole course is good too.
Finally, she agreed, "Okay, I'll ask." If they want to compete, then let them compete. Winning would be best, but if they lose, they should reflect on their mistakes. After all, there are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding.
When Chi Boyan heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly, thinking he had misheard. "Are you sure?" With her around, the outcome of this match was uncertain, but without her, the match was bound to be lost. Were they serious?
Lin Wei: "Since they want to compete, then let them compete. I also want to see your ability to pick teammates." Why does it feel like she's the least successful person I know?
Lin Wei wondered, looking at the other people's group, calling out "God of Chi" repeatedly, she felt ashamed of her own lack of such pomp and circumstance.
So a scene unfolded on the field: while the other contestants were nervously scrambling to answer the questions, the two of them sat there leisurely watching.
However, it wasn't exactly a leisurely affair. Whenever the question setters asked a question, Lin Wei, though not answering immediately, would mentally state the answer.
Some answers were exactly the same as the ones provided by the question group, while others were different. At this point, she began to fill in the gaps in her knowledge. She felt that her trip here had not been in vain.
However, compared to her ease, Zheng Wenhua, Ou Ziming, and their group couldn't remain calm. She was incredibly strong, both in terms of her speed in answering questions and her ability to respond.
Before this, they had considered the possibility of losing, but they did not expect to lose so thoroughly and miserably. Out of ten questions, they had four chances to answer and two correct, while the other side had six chances to answer and all six correct. It was a complete defeat.
They were all freshmen and they tried their best, so why couldn't they compare to the students from Sichuan University? How did they do it?
No wonder that person said that; he was telling the truth.
At this moment, Lin Wei and Chi Boyan exchanged a glance, reached a consensus, and immediately started answering. They weren't really going to let them lose from beginning to end, were they? It wasn't that they couldn't, but there was no need.
And the speed is too slow. After listening to a question, they hesitate for a moment before deciding whether to answer. At the fastest, they click on the answer in a few tens of seconds, and at the slowest, they wait until the one-minute countdown ends before clicking.
How long will it take to finish all the questions?
So very quickly, the members of both teams were unable to get a hand in. The two were fighting each other so fast that their hands were already pressed down before the question team had even finished reading the question, regardless of whether they knew the answer or not.
So this is the real way to answer questions in a quiz format. The group of people have learned something new.
This brings us to the competition rules: one point is awarded for each correct answer, and two points are deducted for each incorrect answer. So, for the first ten questions, Lin Wei's group not only didn't score any points, but also lost two points. Fortunately, there were no negative scores below 0, otherwise their score would have been negative.
Lin Wei's initiative to participate in the quiz made them feel relieved, to be honest. Perhaps she was right; they were indeed not as good as the group from Sichuan University.
When she started answering, she was incredibly quick. She didn't care whether the other person pressed the button before her; as soon as they did, she started rattling off a string of words.
Sometimes the observation group didn't realize who pressed the button faster, so they used who gave the answer first as the scoring criterion.
Chi Boyan laughed in exasperation at this, thinking, "You think you're so great at arguing?" So he followed suit, and the entire arena was filled with the sound of them arguing.
Both teams were stunned; this was truly a case of one person carrying the entire team on their own.
Ou Ziming said quietly, "Now I understand why she said that before. She did have a chance to win if she participated, but we dragged her down."
"Do you think she agreed to join because we told her this news?"
Zheng Wenhua nodded in agreement, "Very likely."
However, they were overthinking it. Lin Wei only agreed to join because they were the only ones who invited her; otherwise, she hadn't planned to sign up for the team competition, as the individual competition was enough for her. But since she had already signed up for the individual competition, one more team competition wouldn't make a difference, so she agreed.
It wasn't as complicated as they thought, but who told them to overthink things? Their overthinking eventually turned into them feeling sorry for them, which is quite amusing.
The first round had a total of 48 questions. When it came to the last question, the score was 22 to 21. At this point, the group was relieved that the previous negative two points had not been deducted. Now they only needed one more question to tie the score.
