Gu Xiaoming is easy to coax. Qin Sheng and Qin Zhihuai are not needed. Qin Zheng alone made her smile in less than five minutes.
Qin Sheng focused intently on eating.
In order to catch the 11 o'clock flight, they ate breakfast and lunch together in the morning. It has been almost seven hours since then, and she has been hungry for a long time.
Then everyone saw Qin Sheng single-handedly finish off all the dishes at the banquet.
Oh, of course, it was mainly meat dishes. As for the vegetables, she only ate a few bites reluctantly after Qin Zheng and Gu Yueming put them on her plate.
Xu Wenyue, who was in charge of booking the restaurant and taking orders, couldn't help but glance at Qin Sheng again and again.
I just don't understand how she maintains such a slim figure with such a large appetite.
He's absolutely perfect material for the entertainment industry!
Xu Wenyue's gaze swept over the Qin family members around him, and finally he sighed regretfully.
It's just something I can only dream about now.
Then he silently put down his chopsticks.
If they order too few dishes, then the person who ordered them will have to eat less.

After eating their fill, they left Qin Zhihuai and Xu Wenyue and took a walk to digest their food before going home to rest.
The next day, after sending Qin Zhao to Tiandu High School, Gu Yueming took Qin Sheng and Pei Ling out to explore Tiandu.
Before I had even been shopping for two hours, I received an urgent call from Wen Muyun.
In principle, for national competitions like this, the team is usually led by someone at the level of the dean of studies or vice principal.
However, all three participants in this competition were students from Class 1. In addition, given Wen Muyun's special status, the school arranged for a teacher to teach Chinese to Class 1 and then had her personally lead the team over.
As soon as the call connected, Wen Muyun's voice came through: "I received a last-minute notification that the competition rules have changed."
Qin Sheng paused slightly and asked, "How did it change?"
Wen Muyun: "I'll send the new rules to you and Pei Ling on WeChat in a bit. Take a look at them carefully, and if you have time later, let's meet up."
Qin Sheng: "Mm."
He hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking.
Wen Muyun immediately sent a WeChat message containing a document.
Qin Sheng opened it with a tap of her finger.
The content was quite long, so after skipping over a bunch of fluff, Qin Sheng scrolled directly to the section explaining the rules.
Previous knowledge competitions consisted of two rounds: a preliminary round and a final round.
In economically and educationally developed cities like Ancheng and Hucheng, more than ten students will advance to the finals through the preliminary rounds. However, in some remote areas with less developed education, only a handful of students will pass the preliminary rounds, and some may even be bald.
Therefore, although there are nearly 300 cities in China, only about 2,000 students can ultimately participate in the finals.
For example, this year, a total of 2,024 students entered the finals.
The rules are simple: just take all nine courses honestly. The only difference between the preliminary and final rounds is the difficulty.
But the difficulty of this final round...
Even Qin Sheng was slightly taken aback when he saw the new rules.
The new rules divide the final into N rounds.
Yes, it's N rounds; there's no fixed number.
Unlike previous subject-specific exams, this final exam will combine questions from all nine subjects onto a single test paper, totaling one thousand questions, with a six-hour exam duration.
Although the test questions are all in the form of multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions, you have to do 1,000 questions in six hours, which means you only have less than 22 seconds to answer each question on average.
It's easy to imagine how difficult this competition will be.
Not to mention that the final was divided into N rounds, with a total score of 1,000 and a passing score of 600. If you pass the passing score, you enter the next round; if you don't pass, you are directly eliminated. Then, the difficulty of the test is increased based on the previous round, until the top ten are determined.
Even though those who make it to the finals are already the best in their respective cities, such rules are still not something that ordinary people can handle.
Pei Ling frowned slightly.
A few minutes later, he put his phone back in his pocket, turned to Qin Sheng and Gu Yueming, and said, "You two keep shopping, I'm going home first."
Qin Sheng thought for a moment and put her phone away as well: "Let's go back together."
Although the rules had been changed, Qin Sheng still wasn't planning to cram at the last minute, but... she needed to conserve her energy.
In addition to the regulations regarding test questions and rules, the document also mentions some minor requirements.
For example, you cannot be late or leave early, and you cannot leave your seat in the examination room except for two times to go to the toilet.
Qin Sheng felt a headache coming on.
Let me go back and get some sleep first.
In the end, I didn't get to sleep.
Qin Sheng had just arrived home when she received a phone call, a rather unexpected one.
She pressed the answer button: "Hua Zhen?"
The sounds from Hua Zhen's side were a bit chaotic. Hearing Qin Sheng's voice, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately looked for a quiet place while saying, "Miss Qin, I have a patient with an urgent illness who needs treatment here. He's in Tiandu. Is it convenient for you to come over?"
He quickly added, "The patient is the patriarch of the Chi family in Tiandu. I've already spoken with the current head of the Chi family. If you're willing to make a house call, the Chi family can offer you a 30% higher fee than the bounty on the list, which would be 40 million. Do you want to take this job?"
Of course we need to.
Qin Sheng lacks nothing except money.
But: "The Chi family, Chi Yuanyuan's Chi family?"
Hua Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and her voice carried a hint of guilt: "...Yes."
Qin Sheng's eyes flickered: "Wait two minutes."
