Chapter 80
Too grassy.
Gu Tunan had mixed feelings, disappointment mixed with disgust, but also a sense of relief in his disgust.
Although he cannot perform the couple ceremony with Tang Bai, Xie Ruheng is the best choice among the candidates other than Tang Bai, because Gu Tunan does not want to play the role of the wife of an alpha weaker than him.
Xie Ruheng: “?!” What are you happy about? !
Xie Ruheng took a step back vigilantly. He prepared himself mentally before walking up to Gu Tunan as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
Tang Bai watched the fate of the protagonists, the top and the bottom, come together. The book had already arranged a sweet plot of couple etiquette, but Brother Xie looked a little uncomfortable. Was he shy?
Although Tang Bai still doesn't like Xie Ruheng and Gu Tunan being together, Gu Tunan is getting better little by little, and in love, the feelings of the parties involved are the most important. Brother Xie probably also wants to receive blessings from his good friends.
Tang Bai gave Xie Ruheng a cheering gesture.
Xie Ruheng: “…” After being encouraged, I felt even more depressed…
Mo Zheng came to Tang Bai with countless envious and hateful gazes, and two particularly murderous gazes. The silver-haired alpha's eyes sparkled and he said in high spirits, "I'm honored to be your partner. After so many days, we are standing together again."
The standing together he was referring to was the time during the Mecha Manufacturing Competition when Tang Bai and he stood together on the award podium.
Tang Bai smiled politely at Mo Zheng.
"There are five questions on couple etiquette. The first question is a basic knowledge test. Please fill in your answers on the computer." said the teacher.
The first question is about basic knowledge, which is relatively simple. What are the three common terms used between spouses? What should you say when your husband comes home with a lot of things to do? What should you say when you eat your spouse's food? What should you say when your spouse is feeling unwell?
Of course, these were simple only for Tang Bai who was well prepared. A bunch of military cadets who had never seen the etiquette of husband and wife were all confused and wrote nonsense according to their straight A thinking.
Three ways to address a partner: wife, baby, sweetheart?
I got home late from work. I'm sorry I couldn't get away this time. I'll definitely come back next time.
Is it delicious to eat the food prepared by your partner?
If your partner is not feeling well, should he drink more hot water?
"Oh, this is too difficult. It would be better to ask 'My mother and my wife both fell into the water, which one should I save?'"
The grading is done by partners. When they finish each part, they will get the standard answer on the computer. They will score each other based on the reference answer, and at the same time they can also know their own score.
Gu Tuanan originally thought that Xie Ruheng would lose a lot of points on such an obscure question as marital etiquette, but he did not expect that Xie Ruheng answered it better than him.
He had received etiquette training in this area because of blind dates. How did Xie Ruheng know so much about marital etiquette?
Recalling Xie Ruheng's calm attitude when he first heard about the couple's etiquette test, I can now describe it as "expected."
Did Xie Ruheng know the questions in advance?
The gray-blue eyes stared at Xie Ruheng quietly, not wanting to miss any micro-expression on his face. Gu Tunan said seriously: "Xie Ruheng, I regard you as my only opponent. I thought you were an upright alpha. Are you?"
Xie Ruheng: “?”
——"After the etiquette test, Gu Tunan would say to Xie Ruheng, you are very good, you are my only opponent."
——"Unique, isn't true love unique?"
Could it be that this question of integrity is not about my character, but about my sexual orientation? !
Xie Ruheng realized it!
Xie Ruheng said firmly: "I am."
Gu Tunan felt the seriousness in Xie Ruheng's tone. He thought that Xie Ruheng, like him, regarded each other as their only opponent. He was deeply touched and said with sympathy: "You are very good. You are my only opponent."
Xie Ruheng: “…”
Soon we came to the second question, which was about how to make the couple’s life harmonious.
The scoring point of this question lies in the fact that the candidates, in a dialogue mode, list several aspects that cause disharmony in the couple's life and propose solutions based on couple etiquette. In this mode, they are both partners and competitors.
Xie Ruheng answered first: "As for money, poor couples have many worries and conflicts in managing finances..."
Ding, Xie Ruheng +1 point
Gu Tunan then answered: "Family-related issues, such as conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, conflicts between sister-in-law and sister-in-law..."
Ding, Gu Tunan +1 point
Xie Ruheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "In terms of worldview..."
Gu Tunan did not shy away from the question: "In terms of personality..."
After a few rounds, the desire to win was completely aroused, but almost all the points that could be said were said. Xie Ruheng said in a deep voice, "In terms of sex life, if the husband is impotent! Impotence!"
After saying that, he stared at Gu Tunan with burning eyes, "Can you tell me other scoring points? Don't tell me you can't!"
Gu Tunan: “…”
Nan Nan is angry, Nan Nan is frustrated, and Nan Nan is helpless!
There were random questions next, and each group would draw a different random question. Tang Bai drew a relatively mundane question about what to wear and what gifts to bring when visiting your partner's home for the first time. He saw that the more exciting group drew questions about drinking from the same cup, exchanging wedding rings, and reading wedding vows.
The two tough guys sighed at each other after drinking the wedding wine.
The alpha who exchanged a light ring with his roommate who had a toe tapped put on a mask of pain.
The alpha looked dazed as he recited his wedding vows to a classmate who was taller and more majestic than him.
Later, we were tested on other etiquette contents. Tang Bai teamed up with several classmates and they all worked together happily.
After the exam, all candidates' scores were ranked in order of high to low, and Xie Ruheng's high score attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone knows that etiquette exams are disadvantageous to common students. In previous years, students from noble families have always been the best in etiquette exams. Everyone knows that this kind of exam is to give privileges to the nobles and block the upward path for common people, but who can stop people from having a good background? Family background is also a kind of strength.
"Tsk, I guess he just got lucky and guessed the right answer." muttered a noble student.
Qiu Yan said loudly: "Luck is also a kind of strength!"
Most of the cadets looked at their grades and went on to do more important things.
"Did you just call me wife?! Let's go out and have a fight to see who is the daddy!"
Amid the lively atmosphere of the crowd, Tang Bai saw Qin Jun hurriedly leaving with his head down.
I heard that the Cheng family was trying to survive this time and had discarded the entire Qin family. Qin Jun, who used to rely on his family's power to bully others, has now become a rat crossing the street. He has offended too many people in the past, and his days ahead will be very difficult.
It seems that the plot where Qin Jun tampers with Xie Ruheng's mecha in the underground arena will not happen.
"There will be a physical fitness test tomorrow. You don't need to train today. You need to conserve your energy." Xie Ruheng walked up to Tang Bai and reminded him.
Tang Bai retracted his gaze and asked Xie Ruheng, "Brother Xie, don't you have anything you want to ask?" For example, why did I guess the questions so accurately?
"When you want to tell me, just tell me. Everyone has secrets, and I'm hiding things from you too," said Xie Ruheng.
Tang Bai was moved and suddenly felt that this sentence sounded familiar. Xiao Cheng seemed to have said the same thing to him.
To be honest, Xiao Cheng and Xie Ge really have a lot of similarities. If it weren't for their different genders and different sizes of chest muscles, Tang Bai would have suspected that they were the same person.
But how is this possible? Hahahaha.
Lu Xiaoshan was watching the live broadcast at Mr. Ling's home, and the live broadcast showed the Qin family being tried.
Thinking of the torture his father had suffered, Lu Xiaoshan clenched his fists unconsciously.
"Xiaoshan, you told me before that you decided not to study anymore and wanted to be a local arena star like Brother Xiao Xie." Mr. Ling suddenly said.
Lu Xiaoshan nodded without hesitation.
"Do you like driving mechas, or do you want to make money as soon as possible?" Mr. Ling looked into Lu Xiaoshan's eyes and asked softly.
"I want to do both." There is a kind of competition in the underground arena where talented children fight against adults. The injury rate is very high, but the rewards are very generous.
Lu Xiaoshan knew that although his father had returned safely, his health would never recover. But it didn't matter, because he could still be the pillar of the family.
"I know of a career that might be better suited for you than being a local arena racer."
Seeing Lu Xiaoshan's confused look, Mr. Ling's heart suddenly softened: "The Federal Military Academy will hold a youth mecha driving competition every year. If you can get a good ranking in this competition, you will get a scholarship and the opportunity to study in the primary school affiliated with the Federal Military Academy."
"Is it the same as the youth art competition held by the Etiquette Academy?!" Jiang Quan asked excitedly.
The other children came over after hearing this, "Wow! I want to sign up too!" "But I can't drive a mecha." "I can't either..."
Looking at the children who raised their hands high, Mr. Ling smiled and said, "You can all sign up. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do it. When our school is built, students from the Mecha Department of the Federal Military Academy will come to teach in the new school. You must concentrate on your studies and work hard to get a good ranking. Do you understand?"
Lu Xiaoshan knew that Jiang Quan had won the opportunity to study at the primary school affiliated to the Etiquette College because of his previous graffiti work. When Jiang Quan reached school age in the second half of the year, he would be able to study at Brother Tangtang's alma mater. He was secretly envious of him for a while.
"Sir, is this true?" Lu Xiaoshan confirmed carefully.
"It's true. Your brother Xiao Xie told me."
Lu Xiaoshan was so excited that he didn't know what to say. Mr. Ling touched Lu Xiaoshan's head. Through Lu Xiaoshan, he seemed to see Xie Ruheng back then. He was also a young child, but his eyes were filled with deep gloom: "He doesn't want you to follow his old path."
"He hopes that you can all live in the sunshine, grow up safely and happily."
