“Haha… Is Sheng Man playing hit the balls or hit the people? I suddenly feel sympathetic for Song Lie. How can he stand such a partner?”
“It was Song Lie who chose Sheng Man so he brought it upon himself.”
After Song Lie was hit by the racket several times, Sheng Man was finally able to hit the ball three times. Both of them breathed a sigh of relief.

“Ye Zhi, Gu Ren, come and eat this.”
Ye Zhi turned his head and looked over. Xiong Ting and Yue Ling were standing side by side in front of a small stall. There were a lot of snacks in front of them with exotic odours that assailed their nostrils.
Ye Zhi took a closer look and realized that those snacks were not ordinary at all.
Stinky tofu, roasted grasshoppers, roasted silkworm pupae… There were also many other snacks that Ye Zhi had no clue what they were. It seemed that it was going to be difficult to eat them.
Xiong Ting finished off a bunch of grilled grasshoppers without any hesitation and then picked up a bowl of stinky tofu before calling Ye Zhi and the others over.
“This task is very simple. As long as both team members eat any three snacks, you will pass.”
Ye Zhi looked at Yue Ling standing next to Xiong Ting. She ate the silkworm pupa in her hand with a painful expression. She seemed to be on the verge of collapse and would end up vomiting at any moment.
Hesitation could be seen on Ye Zhi’s face and Gu Ren was also silent. His thin lips were slightly pursed, showing his hesitation. He didn’t answer immediately.
Ye Zhi patted Brother Xiong Ting on the shoulder and thanked him for his enthusiasm: “I think we will take a stroll first and check out the other places.”
Gu Ren immediately responded, “Remember to eat slowly.”
Ye Zhi resolutely refused Xiong Ting’s request and immediately rushed off to find the next place with Gu Ren.
This time Ye Zhi decided to play. She needed to use a small net to catch the fish, and as long as three fishes were caught, she would pass.
Shan Qian who was also playing, decided to give up and leave as he had been on the task for a long time without any success. Before he left, he persuaded Ye Zhi and Gu Ren to give up it. Saying that it was too difficult.

Ye Zhi held the net with a calm expression on her face. She caught the three fishes in no time without breaking a sweat.
She managed to finish the task even before Shan Qian could leave. She had played this game in her past life. She was quite good at it.
Ye Zhi looked at Shan Qian: “When catching the fish, remember to slowly shorten the distance of the cup.”
After Ye Zhi imparted her experience, she and Gu Ren walked away. They had successfully passed three games.
Gu Ren and Ye Zhi received the note containing the next task. Gu Ren handed it over to her. He bent down and gently untied the rope around Ye Zhi’s ankle.
Gu Ren’s movements were very careful, for fear of pulling Ye Zhi’s leg.
Ye Zhi stood there, looking at Gu Ren quietly. They already had enough tacit understanding between them to know about each other’s intentions without speaking.
Gu Ren stood up and smiled at Ye Zhi. She immediately understood him. She opened the note in her hand and the two read it together.
Looking at this scene, the netizens couldn’t remain calm.
