Chapter 93: Getting an advantage but still acting cute
Yuan Guoqing gasped and stared at Xu Yan angrily. He wanted to be unwilling, but did he dare?
He knew that if he refused now, he would be in for a storm. Even if Xu Yan didn't choose 13 battles like he did when he was selected for the service company, he would definitely choose 70 or 80. How would he report to the squad leader? Would he still be in the communications company?
Therefore, although he knew Xu Yan was blackmailing him, he had no choice but to agree. He gritted his teeth and said, "You are so cruel!"
He agreed sullenly, but Xu Yan refused to let him go. Seeing that he looked unhappy, he deliberately said, "Principal, I see that you don't seem to be happy about it. If you are not happy, forget it. We can't let you suffer any injustice as our brothers!"
Yuan Guoqing felt like spurting blood when he heard this. He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the urge to explode, and said through gritted teeth: "How could I not be happy? I am very happy."
"Really? You don't look well, and you don't have a smile at all." Xu Yan was critical of him.
Yuan Guoqing didn't want to offend him, so he tried to force out a smile to show that he was not unhappy. However, even so, Xu Yan still refused to give up and continued, "Your smile is so fake, dry and not sincere at all!"
Phew!
Luo Yifei and others on the side couldn't help laughing, and looked at Yuan Guoqing with sympathy. He deserved to be unlucky for meeting Xu Yan, who was so unruly and ungrateful.
Being pressed again and again by Xu Yan, even though Yuan Guoqing had a good temper, he couldn't help it at this moment. He stared at Xu Yan, his face flushed and his neck thick, and said: "Xu Yan, don't push it any further. At worst, we can just break up."
Xu Yan obviously understood the principle of guerrilla warfare and had already flexibly applied it to the conversation. When the enemy advanced, I retreated; when the enemy retreated, I advanced. As soon as Yuan Guoqing got angry, he immediately softened and said, " Look, I was just joking with you. Is it necessary to get so angry? Twenty meals, it's a deal!"
Yuan Guoqing didn't really want to get angry, but he was forced into a hurry by Xu Yan. Seeing him back down, he certainly wouldn't be stupid enough to go against him. He said in a muffled voice: "You can leave now!"
"Not yet." Xu Yan shook his head.
"I've already promised to treat you to twenty meals, what else do you want?" Yuan Guoqing raised his eyebrows, his anger rising again.
"Don't be nervous, just listen to me." Xu Yan soothed her, and then explained: "Everyone knows that I came here to challenge you. If I leave without doing anything, I will lose face later!"
Seeing that Yuan Guoqing was getting anxious again, Xu Yan continued, "Don't worry. After eating your meal, I will definitely not make things difficult for you. Let's not compete in physical fitness and shooting. Let's compete in something else. How about this, you call everyone out, and I'll say a few words, we'll just go through the motions, and then I'll leave!"
Yuan Guoqing was skeptical, but since he was under his roof, he had no choice but to believe him and called out the people from the communications company as he was told.
After everyone came out, Xu Yan said, "We got a little bored with the physical shooting challenges we had a few days ago. Today, let's do something special, something better than tongue twisters. I'll say a few tongue twisters, and all of you will be included. If one person can keep up with my speed, you win!"
Seeing that everyone agreed, Xu Yan coughed and said softly: "The blackened black-gray fertilizer will evaporate and turn into black-gray, which is called black-gray flowers, and the flowers will return to fly; the gray-gray black fertilizer will evaporate and turn into black-gray, which is called flying flowers, and return to turn into gray."
"What is this? We have no idea what you are talking about!" The people in the communications company were unhappy. How could they follow if they didn't even know what you were saying?
"Then I'll write these words on the ground!" Xu Yan said, wrote the words on the ground, silently waited for everyone to see them for more than half a minute, reminded everyone, and started speaking again.
"The blackened black-gray fertilizer will evaporate and turn into black-gray flowers, which will then fly back; the grayed black fertilizer will evaporate and turn into black-gray flowers, which will then turn back into gray..."
Xu Yan said it three times, each time faster than the last. The first time, some people could still follow most of the sentence. By the second time, only a few people could follow a little. By the third time, his speed had completely increased. He spoke rapidly, faster than the speed of ordinary people arguing. The people on the communication line could not follow a single word and could only stare in astonishment.
The result was no surprise, Xu Yan won again.
As everyone was dumbfounded, Xu Yan walked up to Yuan Guoqing and said in a low voice, "Principal, remember your promise, twenty meals," and then patted him on the shoulder and said loudly, "Principal, I'm leaving. Come and play with me when you have time, and we'll have dinner together!"
Xu Yan and his group left. They came and went just as quickly. The challenge was over in a moment, leaving behind the stunned people in the communications company and Yuan Guoqing, who looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, speechless and choked.
The monitor of Class 2 came up to Yuan Guoqing and praised him, "Not bad, you're quite impressive."
Yuan Guoqing looked at him deeply. He did not feel happy about being praised, but rather a little sad. Was this a face-saving gesture for him? It was clearly a face-saving gesture for the twenty meals!
But facing the squad leader's admiring eyes, could he say these? Obviously not, so he could only swallow his anger, nodded perfunctorily, and said against his will: "It's okay, we had a good time when we were in the recruit company, and we had a close relationship!"
When he said this, his eyes were red and he felt like crying!
…
Xu Yan picked the communications company with a tongue twister!
This news quickly spread throughout the Wild Wolf Regiment, and the remaining companies once again held emergency discussions.
"Xu Yan picked the communications company, so our company will probably be the next one. What should we do? We don't have any of Xu Yan's comrades in our company, so he might not give us face."
"If it was before this incident, I would be quite worried, but now I am not worried at all, because Xu Yan challenged the Communications Company to a tongue twister!"
"What's wrong with tongue twisters? With the speed he's speaking, is there anyone among us who can keep up?"
"I can't keep up! But who stipulated that we must compete in tongue twisters? If we can compete in tongue twisters, why can't we sing, dance or even do something else? Now that this loophole has been opened, it will be difficult to close it again!"
"Yes, with this precedent, we can now avoid his best military skills and compete with him in literary and artistic life. Haha, this time he has shot himself in the foot!"
"Hurry up and count the specialties of each class, so we can have a good discussion!"
All the companies started to take action at once. Everyone had to talk about their specialties, such as singing, dancing, playing basketball, playing chess, having a good memory, etc. They were all reported. What was even more bizarre was that some people actually said that they could eat and curse...
The entire Wild Wolf Group is in chaos!
