Chapter 275 Xu Wan Asks a Question

Xu Wan chuckled, ruffled his hair and said, "Although you are really cute when you are confident, Qin Ye is also very strong, so it is not impossible for you to lose."

The little devil pouted and said unhappily, "Do you think I will lose? Don't you think I'm the best?"

Xu Wan smiled and said, "Of course I think you are the best, but winning or losing is the most unpredictable, otherwise is there any need for a competition?"

The little devil was very happy when he heard this. He smiled and said, "Then I must work hard to defeat Qin Ye!"

He had said this for almost two years, and even the key class had him say it countless times every day. But every time he took an exam, he always ran after Qin Ye, and he still couldn't catch up.

But now it's different. Qin Ye not only saw him and remembered him, but also took the initiative to challenge him.

Qin Ye was indeed afraid of him!

Hahahahahahahaha…I really have become stronger!

Xu Wan shook her head and helplessly went to the desk to write. Zong Jincheng obediently did not disturb her, but lay on a small round table not far away and watched her.

Hehe, my mother is worrying about me again. She is writing a debate topic for Qin Ye and I. She is so gentle, and she looks serious and beautiful when writing. Although she is not wearing shiny clothes, I feel that she is shining.

The fire in the room was warm, and the little devil's paws were also warm. He pressed his head on his arms, stared with his dark eyes, and was rare to be quiet and silent.

"You don't even ask me what debate topic I'm going to ask?" Xu Wan asked as she wrote, without even raising her head.

Zong Jincheng raised his head in high spirits and said with a grin, "It doesn't matter what happens. I'm invincible, and he can do whatever he wants!"

Xu Wan chuckled: "You kid... are so arrogant."

Zong Jincheng tried hard to correct it: "It is confidence and a symbol of strength!"

"Yeah." Xu Wan nodded perfunctorily without exposing him.

A symbol of strength... Maybe there is such a connection now, but it was not the case before. Ever since she met him, this guy has been extremely arrogant. But he keeps talking about Qin Ye being arrogant and never takes a look at himself in the mirror.

"The thesis has been written." Xu Wan said.

The little devil jumped up from the stool and trotted over to read the topic. The beautiful hairpin-shaped small characters read: "In ancient times, there was a country where treacherous ministers were in power and the people were poor. If one day, the ruler ordered you to reform the law, what would you do? Affirmative argument: accept the task. Negative argument: refuse the task."

Very clear pros and cons.

Throughout history, those who have a sense of justice and the country in their hearts will take on the task without hesitation; while those who only want to protect themselves will find all kinds of excuses to shirk their responsibilities.

Zong Jincheng asked with a chuckle, "So which of us is the affirmative side and which is the negative side?"

Xu Wan smiled and said, "Which one do you want?"

Generally speaking, the affirmative side is better at arguing, not only because they stand on the moral high ground, but also because history always likes to exaggerate the good side, so there are many examples to cite, which makes it easier to argue.

However, the little devil almost always gets a debate topic on the opposing side. He is best at standing in the opponent's perspective and attacking the opponent unexpectedly from a tricky angle.

Zong Jincheng raised his head proudly: "Of course I can do both, an all-round warrior, an invincible debater!"

Xu Wan smiled and nodded: "Okay, then send it to the Qin Mansion and let Qin Ye choose."

"Well, let him choose! As a senior debater, of course I have to give way to Qin Ye, a newbie." Zong Jincheng said with a smile.

Xu Wan shook her head in amusement.

Qin family.

Hearing that Xiaoye had challenged Jincheng to a duel, Qin Shi was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time. He thought that with his brother's personality, he would never take the initiative to challenge others to a duel.

However, his younger brother has encountered problems recently. Although his grades have improved, Qin Shi still feels uneasy. Now that he has a competition with Jin Cheng, he actually didn't have much hope, thinking it was just a simple competition, until he saw the topic -

"…accept it or reject it?"

If it were Qin Shi himself, although he might be disdained by the world, he would probably choose the latter. Because he knows how capable he is, and if he rashly accepts it, not only will he not be able to help the higher-ups, but it will also bring unnecessary disaster to himself and his family.

But Xiaoye is different, he should...

Qin Ye raised his head decisively, his eyes bright and determined: "I choose to take it and write back to the Zong family."

"yes."

Qin Ye chose the affirmative side and replied very quickly.

The competition will be held seven days later, on the morning of the day when the results of the joint entrance examination of the four colleges are announced, at Qingbo Academy.

The topic of the debate was kept confidential throughout the entire process. Even though the other children and private instructors were extremely anxious, the mother and son would not reveal the details to them.

In Xu Wan's words, "No one is allowed to help Jin Cheng in any way. He must complete the competition with Qin Ye independently to ensure the fairness of this debate competition."

This made it both formal and mysterious, which made the young boys very curious.

Shen Yibai was so anxious that he scratched his head and rubbed his cheeks: "Oh, Jincheng, you guys are so secretive. What is the topic? We can learn it together, okay? At worst, we can learn it without telling you, right?"

He Zheng also nodded frantically: "Brother, we really want to know, tell us quickly, I promise not to help you... Oh, no, we can't even argue with you, how can we help you, Auntie is thinking too much!"

Zong Wenxiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Just because I can't defend Jin Cheng doesn't mean I can't help him. Even providing a little bit of insight is cheating. Do you still want to see him and Qin Ye fight fairly?"

The third little dandy nodded frantically: "I want to, I want to so much!"

Qin Ye, that’s Qin Ye.

The number one among the boys, a sure bet for becoming the top scholar.

And Jin Cheng is the strongest debater in their key class, shocking even the teachers. Both of them are very strong, so the debate is definitely intense.

Wei Xinglu asked weakly, "Can you tell me who the pros and cons are? I want to know if Jin Cheng has the upper hand."

The little devil rolled his eyes at him and said, "This young master is invincible. I have the upper hand in everything I do. Get out of the way. I'm going to look up the book and prepare for the debate."

"Hey, brother, let me help you find a book. What type do you want? Biographies of historical figures? Or geography?" He Zheng tried to guess what the topic was while helping to find the book.

The little devil smiled at him, then immediately changed his expression and said sternly: "The three of you will be taking the Boy's Examination in a few months, so why don't you hurry up and study. He Zheng, especially you, this is your second time taking the Boy's Examination, if you can't get first place..."

Seeing his elder brother's raised fist, He Zheng was immediately frightened. He raised his hands in surrender: "Let's go now, let's go now, I will definitely get the first place for my elder brother!"

Zong Wenxiu couldn't help laughing and shook his head helplessly.

Two days later, the prince came and asked about this matter, but Zong Jincheng kept his mouth shut. He even refused to reveal the topic of the debate, only saying that he wanted to defeat Qin Ye fairly on his own.

The prince nodded and said with a smile: "Then I wish you good luck in your debate."

"Hehe, thank you, Your Highness!"
