Coincidentally, Little chubby dun also made it into the finals.
This child seemed to want to compete, looking at Ji Ruochu and the two people beside her every time after saying a word, which was amazing.
Unfortunately, his performance was redundant. Ji Ruochu was busy being forced to answer questions and did not even glance at him from the corner of her eye.
"Sister, after Jiang Zhi finishes with grapes, you follow with pagoda tree, and then I'll say Chinese scholar tree."
Jiang Zhi, who was equally out of words, nodded repeatedly. He had now become another leg accessory for Fang Zhiyuan.
Seeing the children in front stumbling over their words, Ji Ruochu deeply felt they could no longer pose much of a threat.
So she nodded in agreement, but thought to herself that after they had gone through these three words in this round, she would pretend to have forgotten and be eliminated in the next round.
Without her as a leg accessory, Fang Zhiyuan would then rightly and properly be first.
But...plans often go awry. Just as it was about to be Jiang Zhi's turn, and they were still some distance away, a little girl suddenly had a flash of inspiration and called out:
"Grapes!"
Jiang Zhi: !! That was my word!
Luckily, his mouth was faster than his brain, and he instantly switched to "Pagoda tree."
Ji Ruochu, whose mouth was also faster than her brain: "Chinese scholar tree."
Fang Zhiyuan, who was instantly tongue-tied: ...Why don't you just delete me.
The two clueless little ones a moment later: ...What just happened?
So Fang Zhiyuan succeeded in being kicked out of the group chat by the two leg accessories she had brought along.
The game continued. At this point, only Ji Ruochu, Jiang Zhi, Little chubby dun and the little girl who had just shouted "grapes" remained on the stage.
The children who had been eliminated earlier had already received their prizes and snacks. They were now watching the competition while eating their spoils of war.
"Lespedeza!" Without much hesitation, Little chubby dun said the name of a plant.
The other little girl couldn't think of anything for a long time and was eventually eliminated. Jiang Zhi was next.
Seeing Jiang Zhi still racking his brains, Ji Ruochu whispered to him, "Ginkgo."
Fang Zhiyuan paused. She couldn't help but wonder: Could my sister...not need their help at all?
Clearly, she wasn't the only one with this doubt. Jiang Zhi looked at Ji Ruochu in shock for a long time without saying anything.
Thinking he hadn't heard clearly, Ji Ruochu was about to repeat it when the teacher announced Jiang Zhi's elimination.
"Sister, do your best." Jiang Zhi cheered her on, then turned back and chose a triangular Rubik's Cube from the small gifts. Next, he dove back into the world of the Rubik's Cube.
Seeing this, Ji Ruochu hesitated. Should she...just give up too?
"Five...four..."
Suddenly, Little chubby dun's excited countdown sounded not far away.
She turned to look and found the fellow's face full of schadenfreude.
Well, how could she tolerate this?
She blurted out at once: "Ginkgo."
The timing was just right at the last second of the countdown, so the game continued.
"Goose foot," Little chubby dun said.
"Camphor tree," replied Ji Ruochu without even blinking.
"...Jade rabbit ears," Little chubby dun hesitated for a few seconds.
"Solomon's seal," Ji Ruochu picked up seamlessly.
"..."
Little chubby dun stopped and started scratching his ears and cheeks.
"Five...four..."
The resentful Ji Ruochu started counting down loudly, making the opponent Qi Yibin even more anxious.
"Two...one——"
"Deerhorn fern!" Luckily, the little guy thought of it at the last second.
Fang Zhiyuan and Jiang Zhi's hands stopped at the same time, and they were just about to speak when Ji Ruochu's voice had already sounded.
"That one's been said already!"
The children and teachers in the classroom were stunned for a moment: Has it been said already?
"No!" Little chubby dun argued forcefully.
"It's been said already~" Ji Ruochu was extremely mischievous. She pointed to a little girl opposite Little chubby dun and said, "Pinpin said it!"
Everyone's gaze instantly focused on her.
The little girl who had suddenly become the center of attention: ???
Little chubby dun frowned, about to continue arguing, but seemed to suddenly remember something and froze.
It seemed...it really had been said?
"Pinpin's first word was starfruit, second was iris, third was...then deerhorn fern."
Ji Ruochu counted off on her fingers one by one, and as she recounted them all from memory, the originally somewhat noisy classroom gradually quieted down.
By the time she finished counting off the last name, the group of little beans were looking at her admiringly: How amazing!
"...I lose."
In the end, Little chubby dun could only sit down angrily and accept his reward.
It had to be said, this was indeed an exciting competition, even though the participants were all children under five.
Even though they were playing the simplest children's game, they could not conceal the fact that they had taken the game to new heights.
This also led to the award teacher feeling "This reward is so lame" as she handed the toy for Ji Ruochu to choose from.
Of course, this was clearly an exaggeration. After all, the final reward was a choice between a collector's edition "Transformers" and a luxury edition "Princess Doll."
Either one of these, if taken out, would be something ordinary people could only yearn for.
Originally thinking Ji Ruochu would definitely choose the doll, unexpectedly, this soft and cute little one actually reached out and grabbed the Transformers without even blinking.
Just as the teacher was about to ask her in surprise, she discovered that Ji Ruochu had directly handed the prize to the two little boys from before.
"Brother, here~"
Ji Ruochu gave a little push with her small hand, as if casually tossing out a fortune.
Fang Zhiyuan looked at the toy in her hand, then at the collector's edition Transformers enclosed in yellow poplar wood in Ji Ruochu's hand.
"No need, this is what my sister won by her ability." Fang Zhiyuan pushed the Transformers back.
Jiang Zhi beside her also nodded, "That's right, sister, you should keep it for yourself."
Although they said this, Ji Ruochu clearly remembered the two lighting up when they saw this prize.
After thinking about it, she felt they were probably too embarrassed, so she said, "Then let me divide it between you!"
Divide?
How to divide?
Fang Zhiyuan and Jiang Zhi were puzzled.
Snap.
The next second, the little girl very decisively opened the wooden box and took out the Transformers inside.
A frightening thought instantly surfaced in Fang Zhiyuan's mind. He hurriedly tried to stop her, "Wait a——"
Slap!
But it was still too late. Before he could finish speaking, the previously well-preserved Transformers was snapped apart by a pair of fair little hands.
The next second, the upper half of the Transformers was stuffed into Fang Zhiyuan's arms. He looked up in surprise to see the soft and cute little sister stuffing the legs into Jiang Zhi's arms.
"Now you can both play with it!"
The two little boys who now both had parts of the Transformers were instantly silent: The...mood was a bit complicated.
"But what about you, sister? Now you don't have anything to play with," Jiang Zhi mumbled after quite a while.
"That's true." Ji Ruochu nodded, feeling he had a good point. She had contributed too after all, so how could she do all this work for nothing?
So she reached out and took the half in Fang Zhiyuan's hands. With a "slap," she very adeptly twisted off the Transformers' head.
"I'll keep this as a memento."
Nearby teacher: What a fierce little milk baby...
Fang Zhiyuan & Jiang Zhi: ...This little sister is really strong.
Little chubby dun who had sneakily come over to take a look at the champion's reward...silently turned around and sat properly.
This little sister is so scary, *sob*
