Tang Xiaohu put down the chalk, took out a candy from his hand and handed it to Ning Xiyue, looked at the Xianyanbao duo, and bowed with conviction and admiration as they left the field and walked into the crowd.
"It's clear that this contestant, Tang Xiaohu, is very particular about etiquette. Even before leaving the stage, he saluted the referee, ahem..."
Ning Qingyuan broke his voice when he said the word "li" and had to pinch the junction of his jaw and neck to clear his throat.
However, this broken sound ignited the joyful atmosphere of the New Year in the whole house, causing everyone to burst into laughter and pushing the atmosphere to a climax.
"Hahaha-"
Wang Dare, who loves to stir up trouble, laughed heartily: "Qingyuan, your quack is like the drake that Aunt Zhang keeps, quack~"
Ning Qingyuan didn't mind making others laugh at all. He even smiled and bowed to Wang Dadan with a gesture of acknowledgment: "When it comes to quacking like a drake, Dadan, you've imitated it the best right now. Even a duck would feel inferior to you. I admire you."
"Qingyuan ranked second, and Dadan won the championship. Let us congratulate Dadan." Wang Jiandong, who took over the conversation, raised his hands and clapped three times quickly.
Li Dabao was full of desire to perform. He stood up and bowed to everyone with a smile, "Thank you for your kindness. Thank you everyone. Now I would like to give the first place to Comrade Wang Jiandong. Congratulations."
"Ha ha ha ha-"
"You guys are so funny. You made me laugh to death." Tang Xiaohu sat on the chair, holding his stomach and laughing, making his belly laugh come true.
Ning Xiyue couldn't bear to watch and covered her mouth with her hands to laugh. She turned around and handed the two talkative referees their respective water cups.
"Referee Ning, Referee Wang, let's moisten our throats first."
Ning Qingyuan gave Ning Xiyue a caring look that showed she was still his sister, then took the water cup and gulped down a few big gulps.
Wang Jiandong took a sip of his glass of water and said, "We can see that the winner, Comrade Ning Xiyue, has the demeanor of a great general."
When Ning Xiyue sat down and picked up the candy on the table, Ning Qingyuan put down the cup and continued his commentary hosting.
"Now we can see that the number of candies in Ning Xiyue's hand has increased from twenty to twenty-one. She won one candy from her opponent through her strength. Wait, what did I see? She stuffed the twenty candies into her pocket, leaving only the one she won outside. What does she mean by this? Is she arrogant? Or is she confident? So who is willing to be the next challenger and win back that candy?"
Wang Jiandong picked up the conversation, glancing around at the educated youth. "Or do you want to lose again? It all depends on your skills. So, who's the next challenger?"
The onlookers were very excited by the two people's commentary. The more they listened, the more interesting it became. It was even more interesting than watching others play chess. It felt like listening to an opera. Many of them sat down and prepared to listen and watch the chess game.
Liu Yao raised her hand excitedly: "I'll challenge you, I want to try."
Ning Qingyuan shouted, "Okay, now the next challenger has appeared. Please invite our contestant Liu Yao to step forward and challenge us."
Wang Jiandong stood on the bench, waved his hands, and shouted, "Attention, comrades! The second challenge match has officially begun. The winner of the previous match, Ning Xiyue, will face the new challenger, Liu Yao. The challenger will make the first move this time."
"Comrades watching, please make a bold guess. Will Ning Xiyue, who won a candy in the last round, win the victory and get another candy, or will the unstoppable Liu Yao win the candy?"
Wang Mengmeng stood beside Liu Yao and shouted happily:
"I think Liu Yao is going to win this competition. She's really good at Gobang. She plays a game with me every night before bed and always beats me, completely destroying all my pieces. Her chess skills are top-notch. I support her."
The defeated Tang Xiaohu stood on a chair and waved his flag, shouting: "I support Liu Yao too. Go ahead, help me get revenge and win back that candy. Liu Yao, I'm rooting for you, you're the best."
When Li Dabing heard Tang Xiaohu's choice, he naturally wanted to support the opposite of hers and shouted loudly: "I support Ning Xiyue, Ning Xiyue will definitely win."
Chen Yechu was inspired by their atmosphere and excitedly cheered for his roommate and friend: "I also think Xiyue will win. She will definitely win the second candy. I support Xiyue, she will win in the end."
Yu Zhiyu glanced at the excited Chen Yechu, then at Liu Yao, who was playing chess calmly, and then at Ning Xiyue, who was decisive and decisive. He had an idea in mind and shouted to the two judges, "I abstain from voting and will be the next contestant to challenge."
Ning Qingyuan smiled at him, patted his thigh and said, "Alright, currently there are two people who chose Liu Yao to win the match, one friend who thought the defending champion Ning Xiyue would win, and one who abstained from voting. The supporters outnumbered him by two to one, and the next challenger has been born. We welcome him."
Wang Jiandong took a sip from his water cup, then made a megaphone shape with his free hand and shouted, "So, how will the rest of us decide? Whether supporters on either side will change depends on your choices."
Sun Meimei, who spoke softly, couldn't help but cheer for Ning Xiyue: "I also think Xiyue will win. I support Xiyue. Xiyue is the best. The second candy belongs to Xiyue."
"Then I support Xiyue." Gao Yang followed Sun Meimei to choose.
Wu Guifang raised her hand: "After listening to Wang Mengmeng's words, I also guess that Liu Yao will win."
"Support Liu Yao." Zhao Jianshe chose one based on the number of supporters on both sides.
Xia Zhipeng glanced at Wang Mengmeng and followed her in choosing: "I support Liu Yao."
Everyone present has chosen the person they want to support, the person they think will win this time.
Ning Qingyuan then announced, "Now, let me announce the results of the popularity contest between the two contestants: Liu Yao with four votes and Ning Xiyue with four votes, a tie."
