Zhang Hua asked Ling Ziqian about his memory techniques, but Ling Ziqian refused to tell him, giving him a mysterious look.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward. Zhang Hua suspected that Ling Ziqian was using some kind of memory trick to deceive him. (Zhen Hehua Cai)

After all, he knew Shen Qiaoyan's situation, and he didn't believe that Ling Ziqian had created any unique memorization method that would enable Shen Qiaoyan to remember the contents of the textbook.

He was a university professor, and his mind worked very quickly. He soon came up with a way to verify the authenticity of memory methods.

"Qiaoyan calls you Master, so you must have a very good memory. Let me test you, shall I?"

Chapter 140 was so frustrating, I had no choice but to leave!

"He actually wanted to test your memory, idiot, hahaha!" Huan Yue burst into laughter the moment she heard Zhang Hua's words.

"..." Ling Ziqian was speechless at this guy's noise.

Huan Yue chuckled, "Hey, do you know what it means to play dumb to fool others? Don't agree to him so readily. Isn't he trying to steal the potion? Let him taste what it's like to try to steal a chicken but lose the rice instead."

"Yeah, I know, just don't suddenly start yelling in my head."

"Hehe, then I'll just watch the show quietly!"

Huan Yue fell silent. Ling Ziqian glanced at Zhang Hua, feigning difficulty.

Zhang Hua was secretly delighted. The moment he mentioned testing him, the man's expression changed immediately. It seemed that this memory method was definitely a fake!

Shen Guomin also noticed the hint of embarrassment that flashed across Ling Ziqian's face.

Ling Ziqian is a guest of our home, and since he has come all this way, we can't make things too awkward.

“Even if you have the method to memorize it, you still need to prepare. Old Zhang, you suddenly said you want to test me. Isn’t that making things difficult for me?” Shen Guomin gave Ling Ziqian a way out.

Zhang Hua was unwilling to miss this opportunity. He wanted to expose Ling Ziqian's lies and find out about the medicine.

"Old Shen, he has a memory method, but if you can't handle the challenges at any time, his method is ineffective. It seems that Qiaoyan's learning has nothing to do with the so-called memory method."

Shen Guomin didn't know what to say, so he could only look at Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian lowered his head slightly, seemingly feeling embarrassed.

Shen Qiaoyan didn't understand why Ling Ziqian lied.

But Ling Ziqian was her mentor, and she helped him unconditionally. "My mentor taught me memory techniques, which is why my grades improved."

Zhang Hua chuckled, "You just said you drank some medicine and your mind was perfectly clear."

Shen Qiaoyan immediately regretted mentioning the medicine earlier.

Seeing that Ling Ziqian was in a difficult position, Bai Yuqin tried to smooth things over, saying, "Everyone is here as a guest, so let's just chat and catch up. Why talk about such serious things? Ziqian is still a high school student, and today is Saturday. Let him rest."

Such words naturally failed to persuade Zhang Hua.

The old man, who hadn't spoken until now, seemed to have figured out what Ling Ziqian was planning to do.

He smiled and said, "Xiao Zhang, Ziqian is a high school student. There are exams every few days at school. He must really hate exams. If you don't offer something to tempt him, he probably won't be interested in being tested by you."

Ling Ziqian glanced at the old man in surprise; he had definitely seen through his thoughts!

Hearing the old man say this, Zhang Hua was extremely pleased.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out a small rectangular box. When he opened the box, there was a gleaming gold fountain pen inside!

“A few days ago, a student came back from abroad and gave me a Parker gold pen. Some parts of this pen are made directly from gold. In short, it is a very expensive pen. If Ziqian can pass my test and prove that you have a memory method, I will give you this pen!”

Zhang Hua readily agreed.

Shen Guomin was somewhat surprised; the Zhang Hua he remembered was not such a generous person.

Zhang Hua was indeed not generous; he only dared to say such a thing because he saw that Ling Ziqian lacked confidence.

Seeing the gold pen in the box, Shen Qiaoyan was a little excited. She grabbed Ling Ziqian's hand, her eyes full of longing.

Zhang Hua looked at Ling Ziqian and revealed his true colors: "If you can't pass my test, then you have to tell me about the potion."

Ling Ziqian smiled slightly, not denying the existence of the medicine. He said, "I will try my best."

Zhang Hua was overjoyed; it seemed there really was a potion!

"I'll give you the questions now. Get ready. Qiaoyan, bring me paper and pen," Zhang Hua said.

"Oh." Shen Qiaoyan reluctantly entered the room.

"Ziqian." Bai Yuqin nodded gently to Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian stood up and followed Bai Yuqin into Shen Qiaoyan's room.

Seeing Ling Ziqian enter, Shen Qiaoyan immediately jumped over, grabbed Ling Ziqian's arm and shook it, whispering, "Master, I want that golden pen. You must win it for me!"

Bai Yuqin reluctantly pulled Shen Qiaoyan away and softly asked Ling Ziqian, "Ziqian, do you want me to teach you a quick memorization method?"

It seems she doesn't believe in herself. Ling Ziqian smiled and shook his head.

Bai Yuqin was somewhat surprised, "Could it be that you really have a method of remembering?"

"Mm." Ling Ziqian nodded.

"Master, you absolutely must win the golden pen for me, or I'll punch you to pieces!"

"What are you saying!" Bai Yuqin said with a smile, pinching Shen Qiaoyan's cheek.

Since Ling Ziqian had no problem, there was no need for Bai Yuqin to go through the trouble herself, so she left the room.

Shen Qiaoyan tugged restlessly at Ling Ziqian's sleeve, "Master, the golden pen..."

Ling Ziqian was helpless and gave the guy an OK sign.

Looking out the door, Shen Qiaoyan smiled and tiptoed to give Ling Ziqian a light kiss on the cheek. "Let me encourage you first. If you fail, I'll beat you to a pulp!"

Is this the legendary carrot and stick policy?

Back in the living room, Zhang Hua handed the tablet computer to Ling Ziqian.

On the tablet's screen, there are four random sets of numbers, each set containing 25 digits.

"Try it first. Here are four sets of one hundred numbers. See how many you can remember," Zhang Hua said to Ling Ziqian.

"Oh." Ling Ziqian looked at the tablet computer, then handed it to Zhang Hua.

Zhang Hua asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Ling Ziqian shook his head and smiled, "I've got it."

"Huh?" Zhang Hua thought he had misheard, and Shen Guomin and Bai Yuqin, who were sitting next to him, also looked incredulous.

"What? What?" Shen Qiaoyan ran over restlessly with a pen and paper. She was very easygoing and squeezed onto the single sofa with Ling Ziqian.

"You really... remembered it?" Zhang Hua looked at Ling Ziqian in disbelief.

Ling Ziqian nodded, "I'll recite it directly, and you can check if there are any mistakes."

Zhang Hua nodded quickly, eager to see if Ling Ziqian had really remembered it.

Ling Ziqian spoke a string of numbers, and Zhang Hua looked intently at the tablet computer.

Even after Ling Ziqian stopped speaking, he was still in a daze.

These four sets of numbers were all randomly pressed by him just now, so it was impossible for Ling Ziqian to have memorized them in advance.

In other words, he only looked at them for a few seconds and memorized those one hundred numbers?

How is that possible? Does he have a photographic memory?

Just kidding, how could anyone in this world have a photographic memory?

"Again!" Zhang Hua refused to believe it and pressed a series of numbers and letters on the tablet again.

This time, he didn't group them; the numbers and letters were densely packed together without any pattern.

This time, there are about five hundred characters.

Ling Ziqian took the tablet, pretended to look at it for a few minutes, and then started to write from memory.

Halfway through the dictation, he frowned and bit his pen.

When Ling Ziqian got stuck, Zhang Hua couldn't help but laugh, while Bai Yuqin and Shen Qiaoyan were extremely nervous.

After a brief pause, Ling Ziqian continued writing, faster and faster, until Zhang Hua's face turned ashen!

Ling Ziqian passed the second round of testing smoothly.

This shows that Ling Ziqian has an exceptional memory; he must have some kind of memory technique.

But Zhang Hua didn't want to lose the Parker gold pen, so with a dark face, he pressed out a series of binary numbers.

Binary numbers consist of only 0 and 1.

Seeing over a thousand numbers like 0110100 on the entire screen, Shen Qiaoyan was immediately overwhelmed.

This is something that not just anyone could remember!

Bai Yuqin and Shen Guomin exchanged a glance. Zhang Hua was making things difficult for Ling Ziqian, and they instantly lost their goodwill towards Zhang Hua.

The old man watched the situation unfold with a smile on his face.

Ling Ziqian glanced at the pile of numbers, then pushed the tablet aside. "I'll memorize them."

Zhang Hua's heart skipped a beat. Had he really remembered it?

He stared intently at the screen, but after Ling Ziqian recited two lines of numbers, he became dizzy and couldn't find where Ling Ziqian had left off.

He's a university professor, and high school student Ling Ziqian can recite those numbers, while he can't even read them properly. How embarrassing is that!

He was too embarrassed to admit that he was seeing things, so he could only keep nodding to indicate that Ling Ziqian was facing away.

Even if Ling Ziqian recited it incorrectly, he wouldn't know!

Not long after, Ling Ziqian stopped reciting. Zhang Hua, with a long face, clapped his hands and said that he had recited it well.

He pushed the gold pen in front of Ling Ziqian and admitted that Ling Ziqian had a memory-enhancing method, and that Shen Qiaoyan hadn't drunk any potion.

He stood up and said he needed to leave first.

He couldn't stand it anymore; it was just too stifling!

Ling Ziqian's poor memory made him incredibly embarrassed, and yet he still had to give him an expensive Parker gold pen!

Not only that, but we couldn't find out even the slightest thing about the medicine!
