Chapter 261: Sturdy Blossom Pavilion, Capable Bai Xiaofei (2/2)
Finishing his speech, Bai Xiaofei once again looked at Yun Jingshuang. Yun Jingshuang’s eyes were already wide open and the cup in his hand had also fallen in his shock.
Did I hear him right? He has to do so many things? And each is more difficult than the last to boot! Boy, how did you get caught up in so many things? And you even promised to help each one of them?!
Yun Jingshuang was currently a little regretful. He regretted that he had agreed so straightforwardly, and regretted that he had underestimated Bai Xiaofei's appetite.
“Then… then what are you planning to do?” Gulping, Yun Jingshuang asked weakly.
“Cook everything in one pot! Hold one activity to solve all the problems!” Bai Xiaofei’s firm voice rang out, and as the audience, Yun Jingshuang swore he could see a great plan. This was also why he was even more certain –– My peaceful days are really gone…
“Alright, no need to mention the unimportant stuff. My heart isn’t doing very well right now. Just say what you want to do and what my task is.”
Giving up on treatment, Yun Jingshuang’s tone was laced with resignation to his fate. If Bai Xiaofei kept going anymore, he felt that his life might just be over, ahead of schedule…
“For such a long time, don’t you think that the evaluation mechanism of the Blossom Ranking is a bit unreasonable?”
Bai Xiaofei dropped a bomb, causing Yun Jingshuang to instantly open his eyes wide again and stare at him. After half a second of shock, Yun Jingshuang smacked the table and stood up.
“The Blossom Ranking has always evaluated like this since the day it was created! If you are dissatisfied, why even keep clinging to it?!” Yun Jingshuang was truly angry this time, but his reaction was exactly what Bai Xiaofei had predicted. Based on his understanding of Yun Jingshuang, he was a character who stuck to something he approved of to the end, so Bai Xiaofei had long thought about what he should say next.
“The long existence of something does not necessarily mean it’s reasonable. Let me ask you a question. If your answer is contrary to mine, then I will leave immediately and never bother you again. How about that?” Bai Xiaofei said slowly without panic.
“Say it!” Clenching his teeth, Yun Jingshuang made one last concession.
“Don’t you think it’s a bit biased to judge a girl's excellence only from her appearance?”
A critical strike!
The moment this question was asked, Yun Jingshuang froze where he was, the anger on his face completely replaced. There was only one right answer to this question. When Bai Xiaofei asked it, he already had no other choice.
“I think you already have the answer. Basically, 99% of the girls on the current Blossom Ranking are chosen by the academy students based on appearances. The female students with other talents but a little inferior in looks can only lament their helplessness. You said before that the Blossom List would be the top circle in the future, however, I think it’s not enough only to have a beautiful face to enter this circle. Strength, wisdom and character should all be considered!”
The more Yun Jingshuang listened to Bai Xiaofei talk, the more hesitant he was. Because he felt that Bai Xiaofei was right, he could not refute him. In fact, he had considered a similar problem, only that he failed to come up with any good resolutions. Or to be exact, he couldn’t mobilize enough resources to support any.
However, Bai Xiaofei could! To put it bluntly, Bai Xiaofei was now able to mobilize more than half of Starnet!
After a long silence, Yun Jingshuang’s attitude had a 180-degree turn when he opened his mouth again, “You have a plan?”
Both tacitly chose to ignore the little displeasure that had just occurred. After all, even couples had quarrels sometimes.
“Would I have come here if I didn’t?” With a smile, Bai Xiaofei heaved a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart.
First step, accomplished!
1. An alteration of this idiom. In this case it means that the Blossom Pavilion is ancient and hard to change, but Bai Xiaofei is capable enough to change it.↩
