Chapter 211: Criteria for Selecting a Brother-in-Law (Part 3)
Xi Jiu's eyes moved slightly, "Then Mr. Ruan's criteria for choosing a brother-in-law are..."
Ruan Munan glanced at him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and chuckled, "He has a clean family background, a harmonious family, and simple family relationships. Our Ruan family is quite domineering. If he dares to let Xiao Qi suffer any injustice, I will personally break his neck and send him to see the King of Hell."
Nie Heng, who was eavesdropping on the conversation, couldn't help but whisper, "Senior Sister is so fierce, who dares to let her suffer any injustice..."
Before he could finish his words, the temperature around him dropped to zero degrees in an instant.
He shuddered and turned his head.
Xi Jiu and Ruan Munan were staring at him with murderous eyes.
Nie Heng: “…”
I'll shut up, you guys do whatever you want.
…
At 8 o'clock in the evening, "The Strongest King Meets the King" starts on time.
Amidst the cheerful music and the audience's applause, the stage lights shone brightly and spray filled the air around the stage.
Eleven lifting platforms with white curtains slowly rose up, and the lights around the stage "popped" and eleven figures appeared in everyone's field of vision through the white curtains.
Nie Heng looked at the eleven people who were covered by the white curtain, with only their figures visible, and frowned in confusion.
"Which one is the senior sister?"
Xi Jiu didn't say anything, his black eyes gently fixed on one of the figures.
At this time, the studio sounded the rhythmic voice of a male announcer -
"Welcome the first defender—Jin Dong!"
Spray shot up from all around the first lift. A white curtain dropped, and a middle-aged man waved to the audience.
The player information appears on the big screen.
Name: Jin Dong
Age: 31
Occupation: Senior Engineer
Information: PhD from Huaguo University of Science and Technology, runner-up of the 24th Tianbiao Award...
Then, the male announcer's voice sounded again——
"Welcome the second defender—Fei Hongdan!"
The curtain on lift platform No. 2 fell, and a young woman appeared in front of the camera.
Then, the third, the fourth... and all ten defenders of tonight appeared on the stage with the introduction of a pleasant male announcer's voice.
"Now, please welcome tonight's challenger—Ruan Qi!!!"
Amidst thunderous applause, the curtain of the Challenger lift platform fell down, and a girl in light yellow sportswear and a high ponytail appeared in everyone's sight.
At the same time, her information appeared on the big screen.
Name: Ruan Qi
Age: 19
Occupation: Actor
Information: Postgraduate student at the School of Ordnance Engineering, Imperial Capital University.
Whether it was the audience in the studio or those watching the show in front of the screen, everyone had a look of surprise on their faces.
The program comments began to scroll rapidly.
[Professional actor??? Am I seeing this right?]
I've never seen anything like this. Even people from the entertainment industry can come to "King Meets King"?
[Ruan Qi is a graduate student at Imperial University, and is qualified to participate in the show. Can you please stop finding fault?]
[As everyone knows, "King vs. King" has no black box and no question bank. Only those who dare to participate are true academic geniuses.]
[Hahaha! Look at the resumes of the first ten champions, a long list of awards. And then look at this Ruan Qi, she hasn't won a single award! I'm dying of laughter.]
Shut up, everyone. Who says celebrities can't participate in "King Meets King"? Can you please stop being biased against certain professions?
Fans who had known for a long time that Ruan Qi would be participating in the show were already sitting in front of their TVs and computers. When they saw their idol appear on the screen, they were so excited that they wanted to post comments, but they were doused in ridicule by the screen full of mockery.
The fans were furious and wanted to go up and have a fight with those who looked down on Ruan Qi. However, when they thought about how this behavior would disgust passersby, they could only vent their anger to the fan group.
Qin Qingdi, who had been forced by his tutor to do hard labor for two days, had just returned to the dormitory when he saw the chat content in the fan group.
She quickly sent a message.
[Ruanruan is from Lao Qin's family: Believe in Ruanruan, she will win.]
In the studio, ten defenders and one challenger all appeared.
Accompanied by rhythmic music, Li Yu, the host of "The Strongest King Meets the King", walked onto the stage.
He led the audience in shouting the program slogan in high spirits, and then quickly got to the point.
"Please welcome the challenger of this match, Ruan Qi, to the stage!"
The camera turned and Ruan Qi's beautiful face appeared on the screen.
She walked onto the challenge stage with light steps and a calm expression.
The long ponytail swung gently in the air. The little girl raised her head, and there was a confident light in her smiling peach blossom eyes.
[Emm... apart from anything else, this little girl is really pretty. ]
[Ruan Qi's face was pink.]
[She's certainly good-looking, one of the most beautiful in the entertainment industry. But can she just focus on filming and singing? Why is she trying to make a name for herself on a show like this?]
[Honestly, with Ruan Qi's looks, she doesn't even need to answer questions. Just be a mascot in "King Meets King" and I promise to follow it from beginning to end!]
Shen Wenqian, who was sitting in the staff area below the stage, was holding his phone and was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw these comments.
He shook his head and glanced casually around the studio, and happened to see Xi Jiu sitting next to Ruan Munan.
He nearly jumped out of his chair.
Why is this gentleman here?!
At this time, the host said something and the audience burst into laughter.
The audience raised their glow sticks. Xi Jiu looked around and raised his own stick as well, waving it expressionlessly.
It's like an emotionless rocking machine.
Shen Wenqian: “…”
He wiped his face vigorously, pulled over a staff member and asked, "Is that seat in the third row also a friends and family seat?"
The staff member looked in the direction he pointed and shook his head.
"No, only the first three rows in Area A have internal tickets. You need to pay for the seat you mentioned."
“…” Shen Wenqian was silent.
His mood was a little complicated.
Although he had known for a long time that Xi Jiu was interested in Ruan Qi, he had never really taken it seriously. After all, he was the head of the Xi family, holding a high position of power and influence, far removed from ordinary people like them.
But everything Xi Jiu had done recently made him feel a little uneasy.
He went to bring soup to Ruan Qi on a rainy day, silently paid money to support Ruan Qi, and now he even bought tickets out of his own pocket to watch Ruan Qi's show.
Although Shen Wenqian has been single for thirty years, he still boasts of being a "relationship expert." Friends go to him when they break up, parents go to him when they argue, and even the five-year-old neighbor's girlfriend's idea of finding a girlfriend is his.
Xi Jiu had seen all of these actions on many young boys and girls before - this was the naked beginning of love!!!
Shen Wenqian sighed tiredly, and for a moment he didn't know whether to be happy for Ruan Qi or worried.
Just when he was worried about losing his hair again, the first round of PK on the stage began.
The big screen automatically selected a defender - contestant number three Zhu Yuan.
Zhu Yuan stepped onto the defensive stage and confronted Ruan Qi on the challenge stage.
