Forced into a romantic relationship

Chapter 93 Our age gap is too big
In order to hold this Qixi Festival event, the mall obviously spent a lot of thought.

A large area was vacant on the second floor, and a high platform of about one meter was built. Small lanterns with magpies hanging around it, densely connected into one piece, presumably represented the bridge of magpies.

There was an advertising banner directly above it, with the words "Take love as a gift" in large characters, and there was a row of small characters below it, "If you succeed in the challenge, you can get a bonus of [-] yuan."

The banner is quite eye-catching and can be seen as soon as you go upstairs, which can be described as full of gimmicks.

All the shelves have been moved to the commodity area in the distance, and the products on them are basically promotional products, most of which are gifts, with slogans such as "Give it to your favorite Ta", "The price is not cheap, and there is no gap in the relationship" , promotional discounts and coercion, the purpose of the shopping mall is self-evident, and it is almost a matter of pressing everyone's heads to make them spend hard.

It seems that no matter which world you are in, Valentine's Day like Qixi Festival is a carnival for businesses to make money...

Han Zhou secretly sighed. At this time, the area around the high platform was full of people, and it was very lively. The three of them quickly moved over.

The game is in progress, and every six pairs of men and women challenge at the same time. Although no one has succeeded in the challenge, there are many men and women who were infected by the hot atmosphere of the scene and pierced the last layer of window paper. They held hands directly on the spot, which can be called a loser The game has won the life, and the scene is filled with the sour smell of love.

Most of the young people were thin-skinned, embarrassed to face the booing of the audience, and saw that the commodity area in the distance was quiet enough, so they fled together.

And this is exactly the trick of the shopping mall. If these young lovers who have just held hands and are passionate are not allowed to buy some tokens of love, it can only show that the merchants are not professional enough.

Tsk tsk, it's all a trick...

Seeing that Han Zhou had been looking left and right from just now, Zhong Ling withdrew her shining gaze from staring at the small print on the banner, and asked curiously, "Student, what are you looking for?"

Han Zhou's eyes wandered among the crowd, and he replied, "Well, I saw a friend just now, and I don't know where he went all of a sudden."

He was very sure that he had just seen Lin Anyu downstairs. Logically speaking, that guy shouldn't be here. He was sneaky, and there was a problem at first glance, so he had reason to suspect that the guy was planning to hide in the dark. He comes on stage to play this couples game.

And this can also explain why Zhang Chengfan is so eager to let him and Zhong Ling participate in this event, and it may be Lin Anyu's instruction.

But if this is the case, then that guy is really free enough.

The mall was too noisy, which was a big burden on Han Zhou's current hearing, and it took him a few minutes to get used to it.

Sensory enhancement is not all good, and it is necessary to pay more attention to this aspect in the future.

Looking at the couples of young men and women who were participating in the game on the stage, Zhang Chengfan smiled, as if he was quite satisfied with the situation.

He introduced: "This game is called Heart to Heart. It has three links. Now is the first link. The merchant will give six four-character words to the man and woman respectively. Both parties cannot speak, but can only express with actions and postures. The process of guessing the word, guessing and gestures is carried out at the same time. The time limit for each word is 20 seconds, and the total time limit is 2 minutes. Only when both parties guess correctly can they enter the next round."

"At the same time..."

Han Zhou watched the challengers bouncing up and down on the stage, raised his eyebrows and said, "You have to think about how to express the words with appropriate movements, and you have to spend your time trying to guess the meaning of the opponent's movements. It's quite difficult to use one mind and two tasks High."

"It is indeed difficult, but I don't think it can be called one mind and two tasks. It should be said that it is a process of heart-to-heart interaction. Both men and women concentrate on feeling each other and expressing themselves, so as to bring their hearts closer. Don't you think this is very romantic?"

Zhang Chengfan said with a smile, "And you see, although the difficulty is not small, this game is still very attractive. Many people line up to participate every day."

He pointed to the long line beside the high platform. A group of young men and women lined up side by side, watching the situation on the high platform and whispering, probably discussing countermeasures. Or another reason.

Han Zhou understood at a glance that most of these guys probably came for the bonus, or that the bonus was not their main purpose. Most likely they just wanted to feel the ambiguous atmosphere of the scene, and their purpose was not pure enough.

Unlike him and Zhong Ling, it was purely for the bonus.

The 2-minute time ended quickly, and none of the six couples on the stage succeeded in the challenge, so they could only step down with regret.

Zhang Chengfan also felt regretful, shook his head slightly, and continued to introduce: "The process of the second link is very simple. Both men and women will be given a piece of paper with the same sixteen rare characters on it. To make a sound, you must circle three words each within 15 seconds, as long as the choices of both parties are exactly the same, you can advance to the next round."

Han Zhou was stunned and said, "It's so difficult, isn't it all due to luck?"

"Of course it's not easy, otherwise wouldn't the shopping mall just give away money?" Zhang Chengfan explained, "The position of the characters on each piece of paper is different. This is the same as choosing complicated and rare characters. It is impossible to discuss the selection method in advance, such as using radical strokes as the basis for selection, and only those who really have a good heart can pass the level."

"Then what if you're right?"

Zhang Chengfan smiled disapprovingly: "If you can be right in this situation, it can be regarded as fate. Isn't it a kind of tacit understanding?"

Zhong Ling beside Han Zhou nodded approvingly, seeming to quite agree with this.

"What about the third link?" Han Zhou asked.

"So far, there is no challenger who has successfully entered the third stage, so I will not disclose the details, and keep some mystery. How about it, are you two interested in trying?"

Zhang Chengfan looked at the two of them.

"Of course I have to try, otherwise it will be in vain."

Han Zhou was eager to try, so he came all the time, so what can he do if he doesn't try, and although the first two links seem to be very difficult, they are actually not difficult for him and Zhong Ling, after all, he has activated the "cheat device".

Whether it is the first link or the second link, the difficulty lies in the inability to make a sound, but with his current hearing, he can hear the answer directly from Zhong Ling without anyone noticing, and then You just need to cover up the movement of opening your mouth a little bit.

The only difficulty is that Zhong Ling does not have his hearing ability, so in the first session, the opponent still needs to try his best to guess his movements, and this needs to test Zhong Ling's comprehension ability and his physical expression ability.

But even so, the difficulty has been reduced a lot, and it is entirely possible to succeed.

Seeing Han Zhou's confident look, Zhang Chengfan took out a card from his pocket and handed it to him, yawning and said, "Then go and line up over there. Tickets are required to participate in the game. You can only get it if you spend [-] yuan in the mall, but you are An Yu's friends, so I'll just give you one."

His mobile phone store is one of the sponsors of this event, and there are quite a few tickets that can be printed casually.

"Thank you."

Han Zhou took the admission ticket, thinking that it was all a routine, and he still had to pay to participate.

At this moment, he seemed to think of something suddenly, and asked curiously: "By the way, can I participate in this game repeatedly?"

"Probably not, but I don't know how the mall stipulates. In order to promote consumption, repeated participation may be allowed, but one thing is certain, that is, after the challenge is successful, you can no longer participate."

Han Zhou tentatively asked, "Then what if we change people?"

"Substitution?" Zhang Chengfan was taken aback.

"Yes, such as changing partners or something."

Zhang Chengfan was stunned for a few seconds before he understood what he meant: "Brother, I am a pure love warrior..."

The corner of Han Zhou's mouth twitched: "This has nothing to do with pure love..."

At this moment, Zhong Ling, who hadn't spoken much, came back to her senses, looked at Han Zhou and asked, "Are you worried that you won't be able to get the bonus because you don't have a good understanding with me?"

No, aren't you already confident enough to feel that the bonus is already in our pocket?
"Of course not." Han Zhou explained, "I was wondering if there is a chance to get more bonuses, and if there is an opportunity, of course I can't let it go."

He secretly thought that Zhong Ling seemed to have an inexplicable confidence, but he didn't know that he was more confident than the other party.

"Oh."

Zhong Ling nodded, lowered his head and began to think about countermeasures.

However, Han Zhou didn't give her this chance. He called her to a place where there was no one else, and said in a low voice, "Senior sister, the first two links are relatively easy for us, and the only thing that is difficult is a little bit."

He told the other party what he thought.

After hearing this, Zhong Ling hesitated: "But the rules don't allow talking, wouldn't it be cheating if I whispered to you?"

Han Zhou was taken aback, and said to himself that you never thought you could do this, so why are you still so confident?
He explained: "How can this be considered cheating? This is a talent that belongs to us alone, and it is also our tacit understanding. It is impossible for others to do it."

He doesn't think there's anything wrong with this, although it does violate the rules of the game, but this is his ability, and he can't abandon it if he has the opportunity.

"But……"

However, Zhong Ling was more stubborn than he imagined, he hesitated for a while before making a decision, and said, "I'll ask my sister."

She still felt bad about it.

Han Zhou was not impatient, and nodded with a smile.

After a while, the mobile phone in his pocket rang, and when he took it out, it was indeed a message from Zhong Yin.

"I've already heard about the matter. Xiaoling has been well-behaved and honest since she was a child, simple and unflexible. I personally agree with your idea, but if Xiaoling really doesn't want to, I'll trouble you to obey her this time. You should You can also find another girl to try again."

Words alone cannot express Yin Yin's emotions at the moment, Han Zhou thought for a moment, and took the opportunity to propose a condition: "I don't care, but look at what happened before..."

In order to avoid the other party's cold face when they meet next time, he decided to find a way to make the other party forgive him.

Zhong Yin understood what this guy meant, and she had almost calmed down. After all, Han Zhou did not deceive them maliciously before, and in her opinion, it would be more pitiful not to have a younger sister, and it would be very lonely to live alone.

"I can forgive you, and you will expose the fact that you lied to us this time, but you must promise that there will be no next time."

Han Zhou repeatedly made promises, feeling that the other party should not be angry anymore, so he made a joke and sent a message asking: "Then what if I can't find another girl to join this game?"

I don't know if Zhong Yin was stopped by the question, and it took nearly half a minute before he gave a reply. He sent an emoji of a kitchen knife, and Zhong Yin sent another message after a while.

"Then I will accompany you, but if I get the bonus, I will share half of it. Also, in this way, the things you helped me before will be evened out."

You want to be beautiful.

Han Zhou laughed, this guy has a good plan, he will not easily give the other party a chance to get even, otherwise the relationship will be difficult to maintain, this guy has such a temper, if one day he turns his face and stops him and Zhong What should I do if the bell comes and goes?
"Let's forget it, our age gap is too big."

He sent a message without fear of death, then quickly put the phone into his pocket, no longer looked at the other party's next reply, and then looked at the bell who had just put away the phone.

"Sister, I..."

He was about to speak when Zhong Ling suddenly raised his hand and punched him on the chest with very little force. Then he lowered his head cautiously and said softly: "I'm sorry, my sister said you said a lot of things to her, let me help you." She punched you."

She withdrew her fist, bowing her head and admitting her mistake.

Han Zhou is happy, is this the legendary little fist punching your chest?He flatly denied it, "I didn't say anything excessive."

Seeing that he was not angry, Zhong Ling breathed a sigh of relief, and asked in confusion, "Then what did you say?"

My sister had never asked her to hit anyone before, so Han Zhou must have said something bad.

Han Zhou looked at his nose, nose and heart, and did not speak.

Zhong Ling took out his mobile phone and inquired for a while. After a while, he put on a stern face and gave him a light punch. He said seriously: "Although it is true, this statement is really too much!"

Her voice is soft, even if she is dissatisfied, it is difficult to make people feel afraid. It sounds very soft, like a wind chime blown by a soft wind. It is a pity that few people can hear such a voice. This is undoubtedly a It's a pity.

Han Zhou felt emotional, admitted his mistake honestly, and had a very correct attitude, then changed the subject and said, "Sister Yin hopes that I can respect your opinion, and I also think that I should listen to my sister, so we will stop cheating."

Zhong Ling is a simple and innocent girl, and Zhong Yin should have been trying her best to protect this innocence, otherwise she would not have such clear eyes that were not polluted, so Han Zhou is also willing to respect their ideas.

Of course Zhong Ling understood that this was a compromise made by Han Zhou. She hesitated for a while, hesitated to speak, and finally nodded gently while holding the small cloth bag.

The two went to line up.

The line was very long, but fortunately, the progress was fast. Almost all the challengers on the stage fell in the first session. Many people couldn't even guess the first word, so naturally there was no need to continue, so Often it takes less than 2 minutes for a group of challengers to step down.

This also explains the difficulty of this game from the side.

Of course, it was not the contestants who failed to advance to the second round, but unfortunately they failed to enter the third round and stepped off the stage after 15 seconds.

The host on the stage was very good at talking, and kept stirring up the atmosphere. In a few words, he made this game one of the must-challenge events for couples. Suddenly, there were more and more challengers.

Han Zhou and Zhong Ling were chatting and waiting, when suddenly his expression changed.

Because he finally saw Lin Anyu in the mall again, but this time this guy actually appeared on the high platform, bringing a girl along with him among the group of challengers.
