What Cao Xiuyan was most worried about still happened.

After the first round was over, the host announced the scores, and he was only 0.02 points behind, behind Zhou Yike, and ranked second.

Myself......

Lost?

Just a fraction of a point?

Cao Xiuyan was incredulous.

Lu Zixi ranked third, 0.02 points behind Cao Xiuyan.

Chen Zihan ranked sixth.

There are still a few masters in the back, although Senior Sister Chen Zihan is experienced, her talent is limited.

This thing is like this, those who are gifted do not necessarily have hard work, and those who have hard work are not necessarily talented.

In addition, due to the influence of voices, it is normal to not rank high.

The morning game was over, and this round was nearly three hours long.

The second round will start at 2 p.m. and may be faster due to the reduced number of participants.

At noon, I ate at Jiangnan University, buffet.

Cao Xiuyan didn't eat much in the morning, and although he was a little hungry at noon, he didn't want to eat more.

In addition, he didn't get the position he wanted in the morning race, and his mood was a little heavy.

But these were small things, and he had already figured out how to deal with them.

When entering the door of the restaurant, Cao Xiuyan and his party met the team of Hangcheng Normal School, that is, Zhou Yike's team.

While Cao Xiuyan was talking to Lu Zixi, he nodded at Zhou Yike:

"Alas, Zixi, you said what a good position No. 7 is, but I collapsed myself...... Yo, classmates, good afternoon. Congratulations, continue to work hard in the afternoon~"

With a smile on their faces, Cao Xiuyan and Zhou Yi greeted each other.

Zhou Yi also greeted Cao Xiuyan very politely: "Hello Xiuyan~ It's a fluke in the morning." Have a good rest at noon, and please refuel in the afternoon~"

The scene is not nutritious.

After saying that, both teams entered the restaurant together.

Cao Xiuyan and Lu Zixi took the plate to choose the meal, and chatted while choosing.

"Zixi, have you watched any movies lately?"

"No, I've been busy preparing for the competition lately, and I haven't had a good life. I'm going to watch a few movies after the game. ”

"I recommend you a good one, "The Seventh Son: The Battle of Demon Suppression", it is a very good movie. ”

"Really? I'll go back and see. ”

Cao Xiuyan was chatting with Lu Zixi while looking at Zhou Ye, who was standing not far away to choose a meal.

The volume of what I just said......

She should be able to hear it, right?

After choosing a meal, Cao Xiuyan and Lu Zixi sat at a table, eating without speaking.

Cao Xiuyan turned his head slightly, looked at Zhou Yi, who was sitting and eating behind him, and began to chat with Lu Zixi.

"Zixi, what number are you going to choose in the afternoon?"

Lu Zixi looked at him in astonishment, and said in a low voice: "Brother, you are crazy, can this kind of thing be discussed here? ”

Cao Xiuyan waved his hand and said, "It's just a chat." ”

Lu Zixi wrinkled his nose and chose to keep a hand: "I won't say it." ”

Cao Xiuyan joked: "Why don't we choose each other's numbers in the first round, you choose my number seven, and I choose your number 11." ”

Lu Zixi said helplessly: "When the time comes, let's eat first, brother." ”

Cao Xiuyan took a simple bite, glanced at the diagonal back, and saw that Zhou Yi got up to put the dinner plate, and he followed, and then said to Lu Zixi:

"You eat first, I'm full, go first. ”

After speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Lu Zixi with a stunned face.

I was ruthlessly abandoned by my brother like this?

Cao Xiuyan's footsteps were a little faster, he kept up with Zhou Ye, and then "just happened" to bump into Zhou Ye at the place where the dinner plate was placed, and he was the first to speak this time:

"Hey, yes. ”

The smile is kind, elegant and easy-going.

Zhou Yi saw that it was him, he was a little surprised, his eyes were happy, and he put down the plate and greeted Cao Xiuyan: "Hi, Xiuyan." Are you done?"

Cao Xiuyan said: "Yes, I eat less. What are your plans after eating? I have an hour of free time at noon. ”

Zhou Yi said: "I want to go around the neighborhood and take pictures or something." ”

Cao Xiuyan sent out an invitation: "I also happen to have this plan, why don't we go together?"

Zhou Yi was quite surprised, and said, "Okay, my honor." ”

He and Zhou Yi talked all the way, from poetry to poetry, from Charles Dickens to Marquez, from Baudelaire to Shakespeare......

Then the topic gradually became cliché, from college life to emotional life, and when Zhou Yi asked Cao Xiuyan, seeing that Lu Zixi and him were very close, and whether the two of them were a couple, Cao Xiuyan chuckled:

"No, I'm single. ”

Then we talked about this competition.

"I didn't expect that both of us would choose the poem "Believe in the Future" in this competition, this is also the fate of the two of us, right?"

Cao Xiuyan walked while looking at Zhou Yi beside him with his spare eyes and said this.

Zhou Yi also said with some surprise: "But no, I was startled when I heard you recite this poem, and then I began to worry about whether I could recite this poem well." After all, you are in front of you, and it is difficult for you to surpass you. I didn't expect to be lucky, I might not have been so lucky in the afternoon. ”

Cao Xiuyan pretended to be careless and said, "No, you are so good, you must be fine." ”

【Commercial Blowing】

Zhou Yi waved his hand again and again, and said, "What's the matter, I'm panicking now." My heart is still pounding. ”

Nonsense, your heart doesn't beat again.

Cao Xiuyan said again: "It's okay, play well in the afternoon." Speaking of which, Lu Zixi and I were still talking about whether to choose each other's numbers as lottery questions, I chose the eleventh number, and she chose the seventh number, but we were rejected. Now I don't even know which number to pick. Or...... Choose your fourteenth? You, choose my seventh?"

Cao Xiuyan suddenly said this, which made Zhou Yi a little at a loss.

"Forget it, I'm kidding. It's getting late, so let's go back to the arena. ”

Cao Xiuyan ended the conversation and returned to the game with Zhou Yi.

As soon as Cao Xiuyan sat down, Lu Zixi looked at him with a gossip and unhappy expression: "Brother, you left in such a hurry just now, did you go to date that girl?"

"What's the matter," Cao Xiu said righteously, "I just happened to meet at the door and chatted a few words." Take a look at the question bank, you may not be able to draw that question in the afternoon, in case you draw the "Lisao" that you are most afraid of, see what you do. ”

Lu Zixi lowered his head and said nothing, looking at the information.

Cao Xiuyan spread out his information, and then greeted her in the direction of Zhou Yike.

Zhou Yi also smiled back shyly.

I don't believe you're not going to be tricked.

The afternoon game was soon underway.

The moderator reviewed the results of the morning and briefly introduced the rules for the afternoon.

It's very simple, starting from the first place, go to the stage to draw questions and recite, and whatever topic you draw, it is what the topic is.

Zhou Yi was already standing on the stage.

Cao Xiuyan stared at her, his eyes burning.

The host asked Zhou Yike: "Zhou Yike, we won the first place in the first round." First of all, congratulations to Zhou Yike. The judges and teachers were very impressed with her last performance. I don't know which topic she will draw in this round and what kind of surprise it will bring us. Zhou Yike, please choose a topic from 1 to 20. ”

Zhou Yi held the microphone, his eyes unconsciously drifted to Cao Xiuyan, and found that he was staring at him.

The ghost made the gods worse, and Zhou Yi said a number: "I choose the seventh." ”

Cao Xiuyan in the audience was secretly happy in his heart.

I don't believe you're not going to be tricked.

Question No. 7 is exactly the question that Cao Xiuyan dreamed of drawing.

"Sleepwalking in the Sky and Leaving Farewell".
