Chapter 135: Humiliating The Haters
The fans were at a loss for how to rebuke these people.
It was undeniable that Su Shengjing’s academic qualifications were not high.
The haters took advantage of this point and criticized him for lacking both brains and morals. However, Su Shengjing soon humiliated them by himself.
On the second day of filming, Yang Fangping announced the mission for the day. The fathers were to bring their children on an exploration.
One of the games was to escape from a room.
The fathers had to rack their brains to obtain clues and the key in the safe before they could escape.
In consideration of the children, the rooms were not located in a terrifying place, like an abandoned house or factory. Instead, they were in a hotel located in town. The rooms were very bright and spacious, which made them less frightening than the usual escape rooms.
The rules of the game stated that each father and child pair would start from a designated room on the third floor. After leaving their room, they could reach the room on the second floor.
They had to escape from the second floor to reach the ground level.
Each father had to escape from three rooms. The first pair to complete the mission could stay in the hotel’s most luxurious room and eat the most sumptuous dinner.
This was a huge motivation for both the fathers and the kids.
Chen Ke and Chen Xixi were the most tempted. As they stayed in the worst house and had not managed to complete their grocery shopping mission, their life was quite tough.
As a top student of the film academy, Chen Ke was very confident in himself.
Isn’t it just solving puzzles?
It won’t be difficult for me.
To make it fair, the puzzles in all the rooms were the same. Everything boiled down to who could solve them faster.
Chen Ke and Chen Xixi headed to a room on the third floor. As she looked at this unfamiliar place, Chen Xixi felt a little scared. She tugged at Chen Ke’s sleeve and asked, “Daddy, what if we can’t find the key and escape?”
Chen Ke was full of confidence. “Don’t worry, that won’t happen! Not only will I find the key, but I will also be the first to complete the mission. This way, we can stay in the best room and have a feast!”
“Wow, that’s awesome!” Chen Xixi immediately cheered up. “Daddy, you can do it!”
Once the game started, Chen Ke completed the math problem in the room and the puzzle. Through that, he found the safe that contained the key.
The password was a four-digit number. To find out the password, he had to solve four linear equations.
At this stage, Chen Ke was stumped. Although this was just middle school mathematics, it had been so many years since he was a student that he had forgotten about it!
Han Xiao was also a top student in the film academy. His mathematics had been quite good when he was a student, so he breezed through the questions. He immediately grabbed a pen and a piece of paper, then started solving the equations.
On the other hand, Xiao Yang and Li Kaiwen were stuck at the stage, especially Li Kaiwen. He had never liked studying in his childhood. Later on, he had dropped out of school to pursue music. As a result, he could only stare blankly at the questions.
Ten minutes passed, but he still had no clue.
The audience kept commenting, “Hahaha!” and “They’re all stumped!”. Then, the scene turned to Su Shengjing and his daughter—the pair everyone was looking forward to the most.
The audience thought that Chen Ke was fast enough. Even though he was still in the midst of solving the equations, they were surprised to find out that Su Shengjing had already scribbled down the answers on a piece of paper.
He did not take more than three minutes to solve the four questions.
After calculating the answer, without wasting another second, he quickly entered the passcode.
With a click, the safe opened!
At the side, Su Jiu immediately cheered him. “Daddy, you’re so awesome!”
The audience was surprised. “D*mn! Is Su Shengjing that good?”
“That’s amazing! I expected Han Xiao or Chen Ke to be the first to escape the room, but it turned out to be him!”
“How is that possible? Did he cheat?”
