Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 991 Bedtime Talk (Part Two)

"Guess what I was thinking at the time?"

"do not know."

"Do you remember what I looked like when you saw me in Moonburn Village?"

Xia Shou covered his mouth and remained silent, guessing what Wei Yu was about to say.

He was puzzled. How could this guy come up with so many ideas? Why couldn't he come up with any? He always ended up in a passive position.

"It seems you've forgotten. Let me try to recall it for you! Just wait a moment."

Su Weiyu rolled over, bending down to avoid hitting her head on the ceiling, and carefully knelt up. Then, looking down at Xia Shou, she chuckled softly:

"Do you remember? When you caught us, it was just like this."

Now let's play a brain teaser game. You're not allowed to move, and you have to start mentally calculating from 1000 to 7. If you get the correct answer, you'll get the corresponding number of attempts as a reward.

Su Weiyu held her breath, and after a few seconds, she let out a long sigh of relief and looked at Xia Shou with slightly dizzy eyes.

"Alright, let's start calculating. What is 1000 - 7?"

Xia Shou gasped; he had never imagined there was such a way to play.

"993."

"Very good, what is it if we subtract seven?"

The wooden planks on the upper bunk began to make noise.

"986, 979, 972!"

"Crunch, crunch... crunch, crunch..."

A few hours later.

"What is negative seven thousand two hundred minus seven?" Xia Shou asked.

Su Weiyu bit her lip, lying there helplessly, and said pleadingly, "I...I can't figure it out."

"Keep it up, just subtract seven from seven thousand two hundred."

Taking the initiative, Xia Shou enthusiastically whispered a question in the other person's ear.

Originally, everything was proceeding as planned by Su Weiyu, step by step.

However, it is clear that Su Weiyu's impromptu little game did not take into account the talent advantages and mechanism balance of both players, so the attacking side quickly lost its offensive ability and was even overwhelmed by the enemy's offensive.

So the situation eventually turned out like this: Xia Shou posed a question for Su Weiyu to answer.

Although this bright candidate was able to answer the questions at first, his thinking level quickly dropped sharply, to the point that he had to rest for a few seconds before answering each question and listen to the question again before he could think about it seriously.

The points she painstakingly accumulated were constantly deducted due to exceeding the thinking time limit, so she could never reach the actual level of passing the exam.

In the end, the candidate burst into tears.

"I...I can't figure it out, please, please don't test me anymore," Su Weiyu sobbed.

This was the moment of collapse she experienced after countless pleas were ignored and she forced herself to answer. She knew that if she continued like this, she would never get the score she wanted.

Her pitiful appearance stirred Xia Shou's heart: "Alright, if you sit up straight, I'll give you a chance."

"Very good... For this last question, I will ask a random question. If you can answer it within five seconds, you will pass directly, understand?"

Su Weiyu blinked, then replied with a pitiful expression, "You give me the question."

What is 58 + 84?

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

Su Weiyu, whose mental capacity had been exhausted to the limit, entered a state of flow at this moment. Her brain was spinning rapidly, breaking down this simple two-digit addition problem.

58可以拆成50和8，84可以拆成80和4。    50+80=130，

4+8=12,

130 + 12 = 142!

One hundred and forty-two!

The force I endured proved that my answer was absolutely correct.

Su Weiyu's thoughts were broken into pale lines under the bombardment. The pressure accumulated from each failed and delayed answer was released the moment she crossed the admission line.

She couldn't describe the intense catharsis, like a student who had repeated a grade for ten years finally being admitted to their dream university by a single point after ten years of continuous effort.

A goal that had remained unattainable through countless efforts was unexpectedly obtained after a single, sudden burst of energy.

The pressure gauge, having accumulated to its limit, is released and reset to zero at this moment. In this instant of fulfillment, the blankness represents a state of utter perfection, free from all desires.

It was as if a heavy rain had poured down on a cracked field ridge, and the aging Fan Jin had passed the imperial examination and become a scholar.

In the moment when the throat is no longer thirsty, the heart is at its most peaceful.

Previously, the more thirsty one was, the closer one was to death, the more vivid the pleasure gained at the moment of quenching thirst would be compared to the pain that preceded it.

"Don't talk to me first," she said.

Looking at Su Weiyu's blank, drooling face, Xia Shou's alarm clock snapped, and the explosives blocking the crater detonated.

Su Weiyu gaped as if she were about to die, her eyes darting aimlessly through the air, searching for the non-existent Venus.

The muscles, as hard as steel, gradually softened after five or six seconds, slowly becoming like cotton, as if even the bones inside had turned into bone fluid, and the whole body dissolved into a pool of liquid.

Xia Shou looked at the cream puff lying opposite him. The expression on the other's face filled Xia Shou with a sense of accomplishment, and his heart was at peace like never before.

"Did you guess it? The first question, what was I thinking about after leaving Moonburnt Village that day?"

"do not know."

"I was thinking, what would it feel like if I came directly from the car? I thought about it all night."

"..."

"Ah Shou, are you a repressed pervert? I was just saying it casually, and you're already all excited again? ...I really can't do anything with you." Su Weiyu complained, but the greed in her eyes was obvious.

……

……

As the sun slowly rose, making Xia Shou feel its glare, Su Weiyu's sweat had already dried three layers.

so tired...

"I'm hungry. Let's take a shower and then go have breakfast." Su Weiyu's face also showed signs of fatigue, but it was a satisfied kind of fatigue.

This time, the baths were all done together, and as Xia Shou prayed, thank God, nothing happened.

Humans have their limits. At high frequencies, their ability to fight back also declines. Xia Shouzhen felt he should take a good rest.

He used to think that King You of Zhou, King Zhou of Shang, and Li Longji were all incompetent emperors, but after Su Weiyu, Xia Shou felt that he could understand these monarchs to some extent.

If those concubines were like Su Weiyu, it would have been impossible for the country not to fall.

He even had to admire these incompetent rulers; the fact that it took them so long for their kingdoms to fall showed they still had some self-control.

With Alice's help, Xia Shou slowly dressed after emerging from the bathroom, picked up his phone from the desk, and checked the message list.

Fortunately, they didn't miss any important news, and Xiao Gao and Xiao Ming didn't make any urgent arrangements.

Maybe I can take a break today, since Xiaoming said before that I could rest.

Ok?
Xiaoyue sent a letter.

[Su Yue: Brother Xia Shou, I heard about your progress. You've worked hard. Are you getting enough rest?]
