108 108 If youâre willing to bet, you must admit your loss
Tao Qi looked at the computer screen in disbelief, then at Tan Rou. His mouth was wide open, and he didnât know what to say.
Tao Qi couldnât believe it but he had no other choice. Tan Rou answered the questions right in front of him. It was impossible for her to cheat. Besides, she only used 15 minutes. There was no time to cheat!
Tao Qi didnât believe it. He pounced forward again and carefully checked the answers to every question again. They were all correct! The system also didnât malfunction. In such an authoritative forum, the system couldnât possibly allow Tan Rou to cheat alone.
Tao Qi looked at Tan Rou in a daze. His mind was in a mess, and he could only keep muttering, âThis is impossible. How did youâ¦..?â
As Tao Qi thought about it, he held his head in his hands, as if he couldnât accept this fact. He kept repeating, âThis shouldnât happen. It was impossible!â
Tan Rou shook her head and laughed. All she did was show off a small part of what she could do. She didnât expect to give Tao Qi such a big shock, as if it had scattered his mind. It seemed that she had to take it easy. She didnât want to scare the child and make him think that she was possessed by a demon.
However, Tao Qiâs reaction was exactly what Tan Rou wanted. She smiled mysteriously and said, âHow would it be impossible? Didnât you see it with your own eyes?â
Tao Qiâs brows furrowed, and he couldnât figure it out. âHow did you do it? Did you prepare this in advance? That would be Impossible.â Did you cheat when I wasnât paying attention? Itâs even more impossible!â
Tao Qi was so anxious that he was about to go bald.
Tan Rou raised her eyebrows smugly. It was fun to tease Tao Qi. Her smile deepened. âYou donât have to care how I did it. Anyway, I won. According to our bet, you have to promise me one thing.â
Tao Qiâs face scrunched up. No matter how much he didnât believe it, it was the truth. He could only accept the fact that this bad woman was actually better than him. He agreed dejectedly, âTell me what you want. Do you want me to apologize to you, or do you want me to work for you? I know youâre up to no good, but Iâm willing to accept my loss.â
Although Tao Qi was a little mischievous, he was very smart.
Children who were as smart as him had their own pride, and once this pride was subdued, it would make them instinctively want to be stronger
Although Tao Qi didnât like Tan Rou and wanted to kick her out of the Tao family, Tan Rou was indeed better than him now. He couldnât help but feel a trace of admiration.
Tao Qi was frightened by Tan Rou. He had always regarded Tan Rou as an uneducated and incompetent waste. He felt that the difference between her and Sister Jingjing was like heaven and earth.
However, reality slapped Tao Qi in the face, forcing him to face this bad woman. She was far more powerful than he thought.
It was a famous demonic forum. Countless international elites discussed academic matters and answered questions on the forum. The questions this time were also an assessment. Only those who passed the assessment would be able to obtain a higher level of authority and come into contact with even smarter people from all over the world.
However, Tan Rou easily got a full score. Was this a coincidence? Was it a fluke? Or an unfathomable ability?
Tao Qi didnât dare to think too much. In the end, he had lost and was convinced, so he obediently waited for Tan Rou to make things difficult for him.
Tan Rou smiled and patted Tao Qiâs head. âWhy would I want you to be my slave? What can you do for me?â
Tao Qiâs face turned red in shame. He could only argue in a low voice, âThen, what do you want me to do? â
Tan Rou smiled evilly, her hand still on Tao Qiâs furry head. She bent down and looked at him. âFirst of all, we have to keep what happened tonight a secret. I wonât tell anyone that you lost to me, and you canât go around telling everyone that I scored full marks on this assessment. I have my own set of skills, but I donât want anyone to know about it yet. Can you do that?â
Tao Qi didnât expect Tan Rou to make such a request. He didnât pass the test and even lost to this bad woman, so of course he didnât want others to know. He was worried that this woman would show off to everyone and laugh at him, but he didnât expect her to make this request!
Tao Qiâs heart leaped with joy, and he proudly agreed. âNo problem. Are you sure this is your request?â
Tan Rou nodded. âRemember, you have to keep it from everyone, including your dear Sister Jingjing.â
Tao Qi frowned, not understanding what Tan Rou was up to. What did this have to do with Sister Jingjing? This bad woman was smart but she didnât want anything. It was really strange!
Tao Qi couldnât figure it out, but he had lost, he naturally couldnât haggle over it. He nodded. âIâm a man. I have already given you my word. I wonât be telling anyone about this.â
