CHAPTER XVIII
Losing face is such a thing, and you get used to it when you lose it.
Long Qiqi thought that the battle between her and Yan Xiaobei was only known on a small scale, but who knew that at the dinner held after the event, Babyface mentioned this matter again.
At this time, it was noon, the president considered the financial problem, chose a cheap buffet, led a group of members into the restaurant, asked for a small box, and vowed to eat all the money paid...... Oh no, even eat a little more!
As soon as Long Qiqi came back with a little barbecue, she saw everyone's eyes fall on her.
"Uh...... I'm just starting to eat. Long Qiqi thought that she had eaten too much, so she hurriedly explained.
The baby-faced god said mysteriously: "Don't hide it, we all know it!"
Long Qiqi: "???"
Babyface: "You actually lost to a primary school student in a competition?"
Long Qiqi: "!!"
Long Qiqi looked at Gu He and glared at him with righteous indignation, traitor!
Gu He took a slow sip of soup, ignoring Long Qiqi's anger. He didn't say it, but there were many people present, and somehow Babyface knew about it and said it as gossip.
What does it mean to lose to a primary school student? She obviously let Yan Xiaobei!
Long Qiqi felt that her dream of becoming an IQ leader in sports was trampled on, and she subconsciously wanted to defend herself, but the scene of Yan Xiaobei smiling brightly at the end suddenly appeared in her mind, although his mouth was too big, revealing a wide front teeth, which was still a little funny in retrospect.
The words that came to his mouth were swallowed back by Long Qiqi.
Hum.
Her endurance and humiliation have made a child's dream come true, and these superficial scholars will not understand her noble spirit of sacrificing herself for righteousness!
Gu He glanced at Long Qiqi again, he was a little surprised that Long Qiqi didn't open his mouth to refute the babyface's words, he raised his eyebrows, put down the soup bowl in his hand, and said, "That kid is very powerful, for Sudoku...... It's really hard. ”
Gu He originally wanted to say that Yan Xiaobei was very talented, but his conscience was really unwilling.
But Gu He said that it was very powerful, in everyone's opinion, it was really powerful, and he was a young genius again!
Long Qiqi was a little surprised, was Gu He speaking for her?
Zhou Lin took advantage of a loophole and sat next to Gu He, and Ai Ai said: "The vice president said so, then the elementary school student named Yan Xiaobei must be really powerful, and Long Qiqi is not too embarrassed to lose to him." It is said that heroes are teenagers, and now many of these famous people in our Sudoku circle are very powerful when they were young. After all, there are times when talent is still very important, such as our vice president. ”
The baby-faced "wow" sounded, and complained to the glasses girl: "I can't see it, this Zhou Lin's kung fu is so perfect, not inferior to me!"
The glasses lady rolled her eyes: "Much better than you, okay?"
Zhou Lin said again: "But vice president, how do you know that elementary school student is very powerful?"
Could it be that the elementary school student was so good, so good that he could see something unusual about him just by meeting him once?
is worthy of being the vice president, and you can take a fancy to a young genius at a glance!
Gu He said lightly: "Yan Xiaobei is a student of the training class I led. ”
Zhou Lin was even more awe-inspiring: "Then he must be the best student in the vice president's class!"
Gu He said meaningfully: "If you talk about excellence, then he is still not as good as another person." ”
Zhou Lin is simply Gu He's champion: "Oh?
Long Qiqi had a sense of foreboding.
In the next second, this ominous premonition became a reality, and I saw Gu He pouting in her direction: "Oh, the best student is right in front of you." ”
Long Qiqi: "......"
Although she was very grateful to Gu He for speaking for her and praised her for being excellent, she didn't praise her like this!
Babyface was eating French fries, and raised his head when he heard this: "Yes, I also heard that the elementary school student has been saying that he has seen him at the same table in his training class, could this tablemate be Long Qiqi?"
Long Qiqi: "...... Probably. ”
Being at the same table with a primary school student is really not something worth talking about.
In an instant, everyone's eyes looking at Long Qiqi were more complicated, only Zhou Lin still had envy on his face.
Students who can become vice presidents must be very happy!
Long Qiqi took the opportunity to walk out of the box on the pretext of taking a drink, and when she was struggling with whether to drink fat house happy water or healthy barley tea, Gu He didn't know when she also walked out, her hand stretched out from behind her, and took away a cup.
Gu He glanced at her and made a choice for her: "If you treat yourself badly when you eat and drink, what's the point of living." ”
Long Qiqi felt that what Gu He said was very reasonable, so she happily received a full cup of fat house happy water.
Gu He said again: "Why didn't you tell Wen Lang that you deliberately lost to Yan Xiaobei?"
Long Qiqi was surprised: "You can see that I lost on purpose?"
Gu He said: "It's not intentional and obvious, the two of you are probably at the level of half a catty and eight taels." ”
Long Qiqi: "......"
said that her strength with a primary school student was half a pound or two, which really made her unhappy.
Long Qiqi poured a glass of fat house happy water, and took a plate to pick snacks on the side, Gu He followed her carelessly.
Long Qiqi picked up a small pig-shaped corn cake and said, "Anyway, I have so many embarrassing things, and I don't have to weigh on my debts, and it doesn't matter if I have one more." But Yan Xiaobei is still a child after all, how cruel it would be if he was allowed to feel the crushing of strength and the gap in IQ at such a young age. ”
Long Qiqi said it confidently, and she didn't feel guilty at all because of the "strength crushing the IQ gap" in her mouth, which was completely because of the advantage of age.
Gu He followed and took a little pig corn cake: "If only your strength had one-tenth of your self-confidence." ”
Long Qiqi rolled her eyes: "But children are children, but they just won a Sudoku question, as for being so happy?"
Gu He glanced at Long Qiqi deeply.
In fact, he has always understood that Long Qiqi doesn't like Sudoku, and he joined the Sudoku Club in the first place to make a bet with them. She has no obsession with Sudoku, so naturally she doesn't know the excitement of winning a competition.
Gu He thought for a while, and put it another way: "When you were a child and boxing with others, weren't you very happy when you won the match?"
Long Qiqi felt inexplicable: "I'm not very happy, isn't it normal for me to win the game?" she waved her hand, "It's all numb to win." ”
Long Qiqi is not very interested in boxing, but she is talented in this area, as if she was a natural boxer, plus her parents are professional boxers, Long Qiqi naturally followed this path.
It's not so much a love for boxing as it for a habit.
Gu He: "......"
Gu He was speechless for the first time by what Long Qiqi said.
Long Qiqi asked again: "What about you, when you won the game for the first time, were you as happy as Yan Xiaobei?" Long Qiqi paused and added, "So happy that you forgot to block your missing front teeth?"
Gu He was stunned by Long Qiqi's question.
Happy?
I think it's a lot of fun in my memory, right?
After all, he is really into Sudoku. It's just that the things I like later are burdened with other emotions, and that pure liking turns sour. Gu He has also forgotten when he has not been as happy as he was at the beginning, even if he won the game.
Long Qiqi stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Gu He: "Hey, what do you want?"
Gu He came back to his senses at this time, and asked instead of answering: "When you win the game, I will tell you the answer." ”
Long Qiqi: "Win the match? Have I won fewer boxing matches?"
"No, I'm talking about Sudoku competitions. ”
Long Qiqi: "......"
Long Qiqi picked up the plate full of snacks and rolled her eyes again: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it, why find such a reason!"
"So unconfident?"
"Shouldn't you know my strength best?" Long Qiqi gave up on herself, feeling that Gu He was just turning a corner and wanting to humiliate herself.
"How do you know if you don't try?" Gu He said seriously, "Didn't you almost win Yan Xiaobei today?"
Long Qiqi: "......"
Isn't it almost good!
If it weren't for Yan Xiaobei being a child, she would have won!
No, winning a schoolboy doesn't seem to be a fun thing either......
Gu He seemed to understand what Long Qiqi was thinking, and said slowly: "Sudoku competition, regardless of age, regardless of gender, only the original intention. ”
"Long Qiqi, don't you want to win once?"
"How do you know if you don't try?"
"Didn't you almost win Yan Xiaobei today?"
"Don't you want to win once?"
Can she win?
"Hey, Long Qiqi, did you hear me!"
"Long Qiqi!"
Long Qiqi suddenly came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Zhou Lin in front of her, "Ah I'm sorry, I seem to be a little tired lately." ”
Zhou Lin didn't mind Long Qiqi's shaking spirit: "You said before that the vice president taught you Sudoku, I thought it was just a casual teaching, but I didn't expect that there was still an organized, planned and very formal teaching." Zhou Lin said, the envy and jealousy on his face could not be hidden, "Your life is so good." ”
Long Qiqi: "...... Prizes have been awarded. ”
Zhou Lin suddenly smiled shyly: "What, Long Qiqi, we can be regarded as a topic partner, we fight together in the sea of Sudoku questions every night, you can't forget this deep revolutionary feeling." I have something I want you to help me with, and you can't refuse me!"
An hour later, in the small classroom on the third floor of the Sudoku training class, Gu He looked at the extra big man in the classroom and fell silent.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and the essence of Sudoku lies in the foundation.
Zhou Lin felt that what Long Qiqi said was right, if you want to be a real master like the vice president, you must start from the most basic aspects!
Zhou Lin looked at the innocent children around him who would be the pillars of the Sudoku world in the future, and his heart was full of pride.
