Chapter 20:
Who should I choose?
This is the ultimate conundrum.
Shen An'an was hesitant, so she couldn't help asking the opinions of those around her.
She first asked the oarfish: "Suppose there are two beauties in front of you, one of them looks like a fairy, and the other..."
The oarfish didn't wait for her to finish asking the question, and gave a standard answer in a very steely straight man: "I don't choose, I don't like beautiful women."
"…"
Shen An'an changed her words eloquently: "Okay, then I'll ask you another way. Suppose there are two opponents in front of you, one of them is the protagonist and the other is a supporting role, and you choose one to fight with them, you choose Who?"
After asking Shen An'an, she felt like a genius.
Yes, the scientist who gave her delicious food every day, although the name is still unclear, but 100% is the original male protagonist Xu Qingshu, then he must be the protagonist; the other scientist has so few roles, so there is no doubt that he must be a supporting role. .
No problem.
Huang Oiyu: "Of course you choose the protagonist. What's the point of playing a supporting role? If you want to play, you have to play the protagonist. If you don't win, it's not ashamed. If you win, it's double the fun!"
Shen Anan thought for a while, then nodded: "It makes sense."
The old sea turtle on the side: "Young man, don't shout and kill at every turn, can't you be a Buddhist turtle like me? You see, the reason why I live so long is because I never get angry, let alone casually. Get hands on with people..."
Shen Anan interrupted the old turtle's thoughts: "Grandpa Turtle, suppose..."
The old turtle looked at her defensively: "I don't like beautiful women, and I don't like fighting."
Shen An'an: "...Suppose there are two people, one of them is a bad person, and the other is a worse person. Let you choose one of them to be friends with. Who do you choose?"
As soon as this question was asked, Shen Anan wanted to give herself 100 points, not afraid of her pride.
That's how she analyzed it.
Assuming that the one who brings her meals every day is the original scumbag male protagonist Xu Qingshu, there is no doubt that he must be a bad person.
But the other scientist doesn't look like a good person, even more annoying than the "scumbag Xu Qingshu". After all, Shen Anan had close contact with him once, and she felt that the way the scientist looked at her made her extremely uncomfortable. . What's more, that person stole her meat! So Shen Anan felt that he was worse than the original scumbag hero Xu Qingshu.
So isn't it just multiple choice between a bad guy and a worse guy?
The old turtle looked at her with indescribable words: "...Am I so short of friends? Do I have to pick up friends in the trash can? Can't you choose?"
Shen An'an: "Yes, you are so short of friends, you have to choose one of these two people, not if you don't."
The old turtle sighed faintly: "...Then choose the lesser of the two evils, and choose the less bad one!"
Shen An'an asked curiously: "Hey, why don't you choose the worse one like the oarfish? After all, isn't the more scum the happier the other party is?"
The old turtle glanced at her: "Didn't you just say that you are choosing one of the two to be your friend? Since you are choosing to be your friend, you must try to choose the one who is not so scum! After all, you are not a garbage disposal. device."
Shen Anan nodded again: "It makes sense."
People around her suggested that Shen Anan choose Zhou Suiyu, and of course Shen Anan himself thought so.
But she couldn't make up her mind.
After all, it was agreed at the beginning to abuse the scumbag, isn't it a good time to abuse the scumbag at this juncture?
In the blink of an eye, the March period that Zhou Suiyu and Xu Qingshu agreed upon had arrived.
When the two of them went to the island, it was still the season of spring and flowers, and now it has almost entered the midsummer.
To be on the safe side, Zheng Suo also personally attended the selection competition. On the one hand, it is a testimony to these two people, and on the other hand, it is also because of curiosity. After all, he has never seen what a mermaid looks like when he is so old! Let alone him, no one around him has ever seen a mermaid, not even a specimen, let alone a living mermaid.
And Zheng Suo was actually very curious about how the two were going to compare.
After all, this game is simple to say, it is to let the little mermaid choose between Zhou Suiyu and Xu Qingshu. But it's not easy to operate.
First of all, you have to find the little mermaid first, right?
That's not looking for a fish in a fish tank, it's catching a fish in a haystack! Even if the little mermaid is more conspicuous than ordinary fish, it is not easy to find her anytime, anywhere, and the difficulty is comparable to fishing for a golden hoop in the sea.
Secondly, just finding it is not enough, the little mermaid must be able to understand the instructions of humans, right?
After all, although she is called a mermaid, she is a fish and not a person. Even being able to understand human commands is not enough, the little mermaid must be willing to cooperate.
Again, although she is called a mermaid, she is a fish and not a human. You let her choose one and she chooses one? Is she so obedient?
So even on the day of the game, Zheng Suo didn't take the game too seriously at all. In his mind, the most suitable candidate for studying The Little Mermaid had already come out, that is Zhou Suiyu.
After all, Zhou Suiyu's research report is still lying in the drawer of his desk!
But even if Zheng Institute already has an inclination in his heart, he still has to run this trip today.
After all, apart from what he said at the beginning to be a witness and to be curious about the appearance of the Little Mermaid, the most important reason was that he wanted Xu Qingshu to die completely.
After all, you, Xu Qingshu, are going to play an extra match. I agreed and I was there in person. As for whether it can be compared, and what the outcome of the match will be, I can't control it.
It can be seen that Xu Qingshu still attaches great importance to this day's game, because he specially dressed up for today's game.
Not only did he have his hairstyle specially, but in such a hot weather, he even wore a handsome black suit. The white shirt inside is also spotless, and it is better to eat it with the smile at the corner of his mouth.
Compared with Xu Qingshu's costumed attendance, Zhou Suiyu was obviously much more casual. It is an ordinary white sweater with casual trousers, and the trouser legs are slightly rolled to reveal the ankles. In addition, he had just washed his hair when he went out in the morning. At this moment, his hair was messed up by the sea breeze, and his eyebrows were slightly covered. He looked fresher and more natural than usual, like a little brother next door.
It's just that he doesn't talk much outside. Now that he has an opinion on Xu Qingshu, he naturally has nothing to say to him, so he has a cold face throughout the whole process.
Xu Qingshu was also rarely silent.
So the atmosphere was a little bit awkward.
In the end, Zheng Suo stood up to smooth things out: "Okay, since everyone is here, let's talk about where to find this little mermaid first!"
Xu Qingshu looked at Zheng Suo: "There is a heart-shaped reef in the sea, go there! The little mermaid usually haunts there."
Zhou Suiyu looked at Xu Qingshu in amazement.
The heart-shaped reef is his secret base with The Little Mermaid. He can be sure that he has never disclosed it to Xu Qingshu. How did Xu Qingshu know the existence of the heart-shaped reef? He even knew that The Little Mermaid always haunts there on weekdays. Could it be that Xu Qingshu also saw the Little Mermaid there?
Although Zhou Suiyu was in a turbulent heart, he always had very few facial expressions, which is the legendary facial paralysis, so neither Zheng Suo nor Xu Qingshu found anything unusual about him.
Zheng Suo just looked at Xu Qingshu and said, "Since you know where to find the little mermaid, let's go. Hurry up."
A group of three people drove the small scientific research boat to the vicinity of the heart-shaped reef.
The reef is very large, Xu Qingshu and Zhou Suiyu stand on one side, and there can be a gap of five or six meters in the middle.
It's a natural playing field.
Zheng Suo stood between the two and looked left and right, thinking that since Xu Qingshu chose this place, but Xu Qingshu should have a way to find the little mermaid, he took the lead and asked Xu Qingshu: "What should I do next?"
As a result, Xu Qingshu whispered: "Wait!"
Zheng Suo: "…"
Just wait like this?
If Zheng Suo was not here, Zhou Suiyu wished Xu Qingshu would just wait until the sky and the sea were withered.
But firstly, where Zheng was, and secondly, since he had already promised to have a match with Xu Qingshu, he naturally had to talk. And he had already agreed with the little mermaid to let her choose him. The little mermaid shouldn't let him down, right?
Thinking like this, Zhou Suiyu turned his back and secretly blew the little conch.
- If Zhou Suiyu would not have been secretly blowing it, but Xu Qingshu just said about this heart-shaped reef, which made Zhou Suiyu have to keep an eye on it.
After all, the heart of harming others is indispensable, and the heart of preventing others is indispensable!
Although Xu Qingshu could not see what Zhou Sui was blowing at the end, he could hear the sound. It feels like a whistle, but crisper than a whistle, and like some kind of musical instrument.
But whatever it was, it made him feel incredible, completely unbelievable.
Co-authored with his exhausted day-to-day search for the little mermaid, Zhou Suiyu only needs to blow something to draw the mermaid out?
This is simply unscientific!
Facts have proved that Zhou Suiyu really has a special way to lure mermaids. Because not long after he finished blowing that strange thing, there was movement near the reef.
The three people on the reef looked over at the same time, and sure enough, they saw the figure of the Little Mermaid.
During this period of time, Shen An'an followed the octopus essence to learn to weave dragon yarn, and it has achieved initial results. Although it is not as exquisite as the ones woven by the mother of the Little Mermaid, the octopus spirit even said that this is the ugliest dragon yarn she has ever seen, but In the eyes of Shen Anan, a little girl who has never seen the world, it is already a rare treasure in the world.
She loves beauty so much, and when she has beautiful things, she naturally wears them to show off.
What's more, it's such a grand moment of "the queen chooses the harem" today.
It must have been dressed up to attend.
So the dress Shen Anan wore today was the dress made of dragon yarn that she knitted herself.
Very pretty light pink.
Thin as a cicada's wings, but not wet.
And as the old turtle described before, it fits the body exceptionally.
It seems that her waist is particularly thin and her skin is particularly white.
Around this time, Zhou Suiyu had become accustomed to the beauty of the Little Mermaid, so he couldn't help but stare blankly at this moment. Not to mention Xu Qingshu, who had never seen The Little Mermaid, and Zheng Suo, who met her for the first time.
Although Shen An'an enjoyed the feeling of making her debut in the C position, she was suddenly a little shy when she was suddenly stared at by such three big men with six pairs of eyes.
So that she silently pulled a small piece of dragon gauze to cover half of her face, only showing her eyes to look at these people.
In the end, Zhou Suiyu was the first to react, looking directly at Shen An'an in the sea and said, "Okay, you can start choosing!"
This time, not only Xu Qingshu on the reef panicked, but even the Little Mermaid in the sea panicked.
Worth, is this the beginning of the election?
Is it so sudden?
Under normal circumstances, everyone should not have a few minutes of free time to state their surname, where they live, what their strengths and weaknesses are, and what will they bring to the little mermaid if they stay to take care of the little mermaid, Would it be better to speak harshly at a competitor and then start letting her choose?
This is a top priority that affects the quality of life of the Little Mermaid in the future. Is it so sloppy?
For the first time in her life, Shen An'an hated that she was too young to speak.
If she could speak, she would definitely be shaking Zhou Suiyu's shoulder and screaming as a groundhog—you stay awake, little brother scientist, you will make it difficult for me to be a human being, little brother.
Zhou Suiyu hoped to start soon as a last resort.
As soon as Xu Qingshu looked at the little mermaid, he was very unhappy. He wished to finish the selection quickly and let Xu Qingshu get out of the way.
Second, it is also because he knows that he has always been clumsy, and Xu Qingshu, who does not say anything else, is best at confounding right and wrong and confuse black and white...
Compared with Xu Qingshu's speaking ability, let alone Zhou Suiyu will lose, even if he finds a cross talk actor, a host, and a starling, he may not be able to speak to him.
If that's the case, then just don't talk to everyone.
Let this little mermaid choose blindly!
Xu Qingshu didn't understand Zhou Suiyu's thoughts, and just as he was about to speak, he pulled out a smile, but was interrupted by Zhou Suiyu: "Don't talk to interfere with her judgment, let her choose."
After speaking, Zhou Suiyu stretched out his hand towards Shen An'an in the sea, and said softly, "Be good, come here"
Seeing this, Xu Qingshu had no choice but to follow Zhou Suiyu's way and stretched out his hand. The phrase "good" was still on his lips before he had time to say it, and Zhou Suiyu quickly snapped back: "Shh, don't talk, Quiet!"
Xu Qingshu: "..." I'm quiet, your uncle is quiet!
The tension between Zhou Suiyu and Xu Qingshu was obvious.
In the end, even Zheng Suo was infected by this tense atmosphere. He felt that his legs were too weak to stand, and finally he just sat down in the middle of the reef.
Shen An'an looked at Zhou Suiyu on the left, and Xu Qingshu on the right, and inexplicably felt the pain of the emperor flipping the brand - these two were so difficult to choose. Ancient emperors were rumored to have three thousand beauties in the harem. No wonder the emperors in the past did not Longevity, after all, choosing makes you bald!
Zhou Suiyu was actually very confident at first, because he didn't think the Little Mermaid would choose Xu Qingshu at all. Makes no sense!
But as the little mermaid hesitated in the sea for longer and longer, Zhou Suiyu gradually began to feel uneasy.
No way?
Compared to Zhou Suiyu's uncertainty, the longer the time dragged on, the more confident Xu Qingshu became.
Because he was the exact opposite of Zhou Suiyu, he felt that this was a game with no chance of winning, but he just wanted to try his luck unwillingly. After all, it's still the same sentence, what if?
And now, he felt that such a small probability event of 1 in 10,000 seemed likely to come true.
So the longer it dragged on, the more he felt he had a chance, and the happier he was. Especially seeing that Zhou Suiyu's face was so ugly, he just wanted to let it go.
Taking advantage of Zhou Suiyu's ignorance of her, Xu Qingshu twitched the corners of his mouth, gave the most tender and amiable smile at the little mermaid in the sea, and said softly, "Come, come here, little mermaid, come to me. "
For a few seconds, Shen An'an really thought about closing his eyes and choosing the man in the black suit.
But she looked back at Zhou Suiyu, who had drooping brows and eyes, and then at the man in black suit who smiled like a wolf grandmother. In the end, she still felt that it was impossible to choose this man in black suit even if she closed her eyes.
Because compared with Zhou Suiyu, this man in a black suit is really ugly!
Ugly refuse!
Thinking of this, Shen Anan couldn't help sighing in her heart, and slowly turned her head and swam towards Zhou Suiyu.
Forget it, just as the oarfish said, since we have to choose, we naturally have to choose the protagonist with a lot of drama. If you fight with the protagonist, if you win the fight, you will be the Son of Destiny. If you lose the fight, you will be the villain. What's the matter with the supporting gladiator? No matter how you fight, you are still cannon fodder among cannon fodders.
Besides, this "original male protagonist Xu Qingshu" is slag, but he is handsome!
Oh yes, he can cook!
Also wash hair.
The tail is also well brushed,
Also make earrings and hairpins...
What does the guy in the black suit know?
will steal her meat!
Zhou Suiyu had been looking at the little mermaid in the sea before, but as time passed by, his eyes slowly moved back from the little mermaid, and he just lowered his eyes and stared at the hand that he stretched towards the void.
Not even the movement the Little Mermaid made while swimming in the sea didn't make him look away.
until…
With a small white and slender hand on his hand, he slowly regained his senses, and slowly looked inch by inch along the hand.
At the moment when the four eyes met, Shen An'an always felt that Zhou Suiyu's eyes seemed to have water light flashing. But when she took a closer look, she felt that she might have misread it just now.
Because Zhou Suiyu's eyes were still clean, but it was darker than usual, and the light was a little discreet.
And for some reason, Zhou Suiyu looked at Shen An'an, which inexplicably made Shen An'an feel a little distressed. So much so that Shen Anan raised the other hand subconsciously and gently touched Zhou Suiyu's head.
- You are good don't be sad.
—Look, even if you are really that scumbag protagonist Xu Qingshu, I still choose you, unswervingly. After all, scumbags and scumbags hold hands, whoever admits defeat first is a dog!
