Whom_1 Lu Yun looked at Bai Xiaosheng, then at Lu Qingfeng, feeling a bit worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kid Bai Xiaosheng is both righteous and wicked, seriously bad to the core, impossible to guard against.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qingfeng, when it comes to overt strategies, might not be defeated, but he’s too upright and lacks cunning, which puts him at a disadvantage against Bai Xiaosheng…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>his chances of winning are not high!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No way, I have to give Qingfeng a hand,” thought Lu Yun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he had just patted his son on the shoulder, saying, “Dad’s got your back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, it was time to deliver!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ahem!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yun coughed, assuming an elder’s posture, and with a smile said, “Have you two finished talking?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, we’re going to pose the questions, and I think it should be…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xuelian, Wenqian, and myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhengdong Province was kept out of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yun gave him a smile, and the chubby man immediately became anxious, probably unable to come up with a decent question if his life depended on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The composition of the question-setters was so fair indeed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng raised an eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yun remained unperturbed, his face not flushing—a feat achieved by years of experience, the steadiness was still there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng felt a bit embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among those setting the questions, one was his sister, the other his dad, both knew him through and through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To win like this felt somewhat unsporting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright then, it’s settled!” Bai Xiaosheng readily agreed, adding a clause, “Anyone who objects is conceding a round!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words made Lu Qingfeng pause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is my sister!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is my dad!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why does it feel like Bai Xiaosheng is acting as though he’s the one at a huge unfair advantage…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll start with the first question.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Xuelian, with a beaming smile, stood up, glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, walked to the small blackboard Cheng was holding, and picked up a piece of chalk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s thought, she swiftly wrote out a series of numbers, letters, and formulas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This question is from the graduate entrance exam for probability theory and mathematical statistics in business management.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first one to write the correct answer will be considered the winner,” Wei Xuelian said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng’s eyes lit up, and he sent a loving smile towards Wei Xuelian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little sister Xuelian is really treating me well!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, Lu Qingfeng, held a master’s degree in business management.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Solving this question was as easy as pie!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Bai Xiaosheng…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>he was an arts student!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ordinary arts student, no matter how knowledgeable, couldn’t compare with a bona fide science master like him, could they?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This round, I’ve got in the bag!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng smiled confidently at Bai Xiaosheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng, surprisingly, looked at the question on the blackboard and saw Wei Xuelian giving him a secret, mischievous wink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This problem was exactly the one he had solved to win breakfast!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, he had written three different methods!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was helping me!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng felt somewhat sweet inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, right after that, he saw the smug look in Lu Qingfeng’s eyes, which suddenly annoyed him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, this is your area of expertise!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, you’re flaunting it to me?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng saw that both Lu Yun and Lu Wenqian were also happy, as if Lu Qingfeng was sure to win all three rounds without any doubt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the first question was right up Lu Qingfeng’s alley, and the following two would likely be the same!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng, expressionless, rubbed his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You all just enjoy yourselves…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A servant brought forward two large cups of beer that were darker than regular beer and emitted a fragrance of alcohol with a hint of fruitiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He heard it was an improved formula, privately brewed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng had already read the question twice, carefully, and was silently working it out in his head without any paper or pen—pure mental calculation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yun couldn’t help but nod slightly in approval.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Bai Xiaosheng, he appeared lazy, staring at the beer mug and counting the bubbles in the beer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he planning to give up on this round?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for Wei Xuelian, that’s what everyone else thought!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this was a complex science and technology question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Zhengdong Province felt it was over; Bai couldn’t come up with the answer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Xuelian giggled to herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She guessed that Bai Xiaosheng must be waiting to swoop in at the last minute and write down the answer to show off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s what Wei Xuelian thought, but she didn’t feel the slightest bit annoyed, in fact, there was a faint sense of anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of a sudden, Lu Qingfeng strode towards the little blackboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had solved it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yun and Lu Wenqian’s faces immediately lit up with joy, while Wei Xuelian was startled, and she turned to look at Bai Xiaosheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng still showed no sign of moving!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Has he gone dumb?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could clearly win this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Xuelian couldn’t help feeling a bit anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be he thinks that Lu Qingfeng might make a mistake?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng has a master’s degree in management – he wouldn’t step forward if he wasn’t almost entirely sure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were going to lose this first round for no reason!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Xuelian felt both anxious and annoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng picked up the chalk and scribbled non-stop, completing his work in one go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His handwriting was very beautiful, and his board writing was neat and clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, Lu Qingfeng glanced at his work, extremely satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was his answer, absolutely correct!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had that confidence!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve won the first round!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng turned around with a touch of pride, but his smile became somewhat stiff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Bai Xiaosheng was tilting his head back, gulping down the last drop of beer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Refreshing!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Delicious!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng took a deep breath and laughed with praise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uncle Lu, later on, you have to let me take some home!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng, stunned, looked at Bai Xiaosheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had intended to boast a little, but suddenly it all seemed so dull.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was as if Bai Xiaosheng deliberately gave up this round just to savor that beer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you want to drink, then in the following rounds, there are five cups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll let you drink to your heart’s content,” Lu Qingfeng snorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll just have a taste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m used to sipping liquor with skewers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Downing beer like this, you can handle the next one!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng’s smile was radiant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s Wenqian’s turn to pose a question now, right?” Bai Xiaosheng said to Lu Wenqian, then smiled at Lu Yun, “Uncle Lu must be the finale, anchoring the last game.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yun smiled without saying a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had indeed intended so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wenqian got up, and Wei Xuelian couldn’t help but tug at the hem of her clothes from below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t bear to see Bai Xiaosheng lose three rounds in a row; it would be nice for him to win at least one round.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wei Xuelian wanted to signal Lu Wenqian to go easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wenqian, with a cheerful smile, ignored Wei Xuelian and walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little blackboard had already been wiped clean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wenqian held the chalk, her eyes shining with clarity, as she had long decided what to write!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Xiaosheng came from an arts background, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would pose a literary question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If her brother could beat Bai Xiaosheng in literature, wouldn’t that be fabulous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wenqian picked up the chalk and wrote down a line that seemed like poetry yet not poetry, like lyrics yet not lyrics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng found it familiar and suddenly remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This, was Yuan verse!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Wenqian had a passion for literature and often asked him, her brother, about Tang poetry and Song lyrics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the other day, out of the blue, she had even brought up Yuan verse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The somewhat embarrassed Lu Qingfeng, who had been put on the spot, had specifically looked up information and restored his face the next day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My sister is sending me points!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng recalled those words, waiting until he was absolutely sure before he would approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Bai Xiaosheng, even if he did have an arts background, he had graduated so many years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Yuan verse was so obscure, could he still remember it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qingfeng didn’t believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before Lu Qingfeng had finished thinking, he saw Bai Xiaosheng walk over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of the little blackboard, Lu Wenqian was completely oblivious, still writing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There stood Bai Xiaosheng, right behind Lu Wenqian, with a smile brimming in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>",1470,"2026-06-05T17:42:23.583Z",1,"novelbin.me","043a2bbd1a605b4c4276ece4b9b0868946c4890b5f7517b50faa442b58ecfa4e","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-118","inheritance-of-two-trillion-chapter-116",2500,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finheritance-of-two-trillion-cover.jpg"]
