Sheng Lin was so frightened that she retracted her hand.
Before Liu Xin could say anything more, Chen Chen grabbed the lead:
"Oh, I don't care anymore. Teacher Qin, you can't always pick first. I’m determined to team up with Liu Xin this time, and I won't change my mind. Liu Xin, it's your call."
Liu Xin wasn't stupid either. In her heart, she had already weighed it carefully -
Of course she also wanted to team up with Gu Minghua, but she knew that it was impossible this time. Gu Minghua would definitely want to bring someone who was weak in foreign languages, so it would be better to just let Sheng Lin team up with him rather than let some other woman take advantage of him.
There was also Qin Wei. Anyway, Liu Xin couldn't accept her teaming up with Gu Minghua. What if after the end of this show, the two of them got along well and developed feelings for each other? Then what chance would she have left? After all, Gu Minghua was one of the few men she had taken a liking to at first sight.
Then there were Chen Chen and Qin Kaili.
Liu Xin took Chen Chen's hand and chose her - at least she wouldn't be dragged down:
"You two teachers are both surnamed Qin, what a destiny to team up once!"
Netizens -
"Damn, this is hilarious! Freaking both surnamed Qin!"
"I feel like I can see through Liu Xin's little thoughts..."
"I bet Chen Chen will regret this later. She has no idea how many surprises Teacher Qin has that we don't know about..."
"Time to test Teacher Qin's English skills. You guys said the airport part was staged, now it's time for impromptu!"
"Does Liu Xin have a crush on Hayden? Her eyes are glued on him!"
"It's normal to have a crush on Hayden, right? A musical genius, British gentleman, super handsome, he's basically like a prince. If Love is the Game had a character like him, I'd spend everything I had to pick him!"
"I can laugh all day at this both surnamed Qin meme, I dub them the Double Qin CP."
"No need to ship every pair..."
...
After Liu Xin spoke, Qin Kaili couldn't hold it in anymore. Chen Chen noticed and secretly squeezed Liu Xin's fingertips. Liu Xin immediately understood, and the two of them turned and left. Over here, Qin Kaili started crying, sitting on a bench by the roadside bawling her eyes out.
Qin Wei only felt a headache coming. She knew she was unpopular, but did Qin Kaili really have to hate her so much...
Despite this, Qin Wei still gritted her teeth and tried to comfort Qin Kaili, while getting Gu Minghua and the others to go on ahead first. As long as they were here, Qin Kaili would feel hopeful about changing partners. If they did switch partners, it would be hard to explain things to Liu Xin's side.
It was useless for her to kindly advise Qin Kaili, who wouldn't listen. She might as well just let her cry it out here. Once she finished crying, they could talk.
After all, she had treated Lin Qiqi the same way before, and it had worked quite well.
While Qin Kaili cried, Qin Wei sat beside her, calmly taking out a book from her bag and starting to read.
The program staff following these two were puzzled -
Why was Qin Wei reading a book now??
This scene was also broadcast later -
"Pfft hahahaha is Teacher Qin trying to make me die of laughter?"
"Listening to Qin Kaili cry makes my brain hurt. I thought Teacher Qin was also angry and about to take a book out of her bag to smack her hahaha, but instead Teacher Qin started studying ahaha!"
"What the f**k book is Qin Wei reading? Is she messing around? Can she even recognize words??"
"Within 5 minutes, no 3 minutes, I need to know what book Teacher Qin is reading!"
"The Courage to Be Disliked"
"Furious"
"Impulse is the Devil"
...
Qin Kaili was quite sensitive, but she also wasn't completely unreasonable. After venting for a bit, she didn't feel as awful. She wiped her tears and spoke to Qin Wei somewhat apologetically:
"Wei, the way I acted must have been so embarrassing. I feel so useless..."
"You're overthinking. Everyone has times when they don't feel good. Crying it out is fine. Keeping it bottled up can make you sick."
Qin Wei closed her book and put it back in her bag.
"We're pressed for time with an important task. Why don't we focus on completing it first?"
Qin Kaili nodded, but she kept sighing. Her poor foreign language skills meant Qin Wei couldn't rely on her. They definitely wouldn't complete the task later. When everyone gathered, just the two of them would have accomplished nothing. It would be embarrassing again.
She had to toughen up and mentally prepare herself not to cry later.
Qin Wei didn't know about her complicated inner thoughts. She strode onto London Bridge energetically. Without too much hesitation, she went up to the blonde, blue-eyed foreigners she saw and asked them questions. If they agreed, she took out the phone provided by the program team and took a selfie with them. It went quite smoothly.
This surprised Qin Kaili a bit. She didn't expect Qin Wei to not only be able to speak English, but speak it fluently.
"Teacher Qin."
Qin Wei walked up to her and sincerely said,
"The task belongs to the team. You should participate too. I'll teach you those few sentences now. You can say them together with me..."
Qin Kaili waved her hand without thinking twice:
"I can't do it. I don't know a single sentence..."
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. Just try!"
Qin Wei coaxed her persistently until Qin Kaili reluctantly agreed to learn a couple sentences. She then tried speaking to others. Although she stuttered, they could still understand her.
It didn't seem as difficult as she thought!
"Wei..."
Qin Kaili looked at Qin Wei gratefully.
"With you helping me, it seems I really can do it."
...
On Liu Xin and Chen Chen's side, things didn't seem to be going so smoothly.
Liu Xin could barely get by, but Chen Chen completely refused to speak. At most she just helped Liu Xin by taking photos for her. Liu Xin felt extremely weary.
Not only that, Chen Chen kept complaining that she was hungry and tired, and wanted a cup of Hui Fei white tea.
Staff:
"Teacher Chen, if you want to drink something you need to pay and buy it."
Chen Chen pouted at the staff member and whined:
"My money is with Sheng Lin. Can you lend it to me first? I'll have her pay you back later, okay?"
The staff member naturally refused.
Chen Chen thought of another idea:
"Then can you lend it to me personally? I'll pay you back 10 times when we get back to China. I'm so tired, I want a drink to refresh myself..."
The staff still refused, but was very helpless about her pestering.
Liu Xin came over and told Chen Chen not to make things difficult for the staff.
As a result, Chen Chen glared at her.
After that, the two of them cooperated very poorly, nearly breaking into an argument.
To prevent the conflict from escalating, the program team had them separate temporarily to cool off individually.
"It would be better to just partner with Teacher Karry..."
Liu Xin stood at the bridge railing, blowing in the wind and grumbling complaints. Just then, the non-smartphone issued to her by the program team vibrated. She opened the phone and received a text message.
The screen showed a string of unfamiliar numbers. Liu Xin tapped to open it, and there was just a short sentence inside:
"Ready to take action?"
The corners of Liu Xin's mouth turned up.
Other than the program staff, only her agent and family knew this number. The owner of this phone number was none other than her junior fellow apprentice under the same agent, Chen Xinya.
It seemed Xinya had acted pretty swiftly after she had asked her to do some things.
And it wasn't just her, Liu Xin, who was eager to teach Qin Wei a lesson.
"Wait a little longer, no reply."
Liu Xin texted her back, then deleted all the chat history with her from the phone.
