Novel Bin Chapter 561 - 561 Was He Triggered By Something?
[Fuck, this episode’s production team is really generous. They’re actually playing this trick.]
[The production team is playing with fire. Wouldn’t it be easy for the guests to fail?]
[That’s right, if the guest were to lie, wouldn’t they be exposed?]
[Why don’t you just say Jiang Xun’s name? Aren’t you just trying to hint that Jiang Xun is lying?]
“Let’s go in order.” The staff member learned from the experience and didn’t give Jiang Xun a chance to choose. “Jiang Xun, you can start first.”
Jiang Xun nodded, and a patch connected to the lie detector was placed on her wrist.
The staff member gave Jiang Xun a card with all the answers.
“What’s your favorite color?” The staff member asked.
The answer on the card was gray.
However, that was the color that Jiang Xun hated the most.
It wasn’t as good as full black, which Jiang Xun thought was still not bad.
Even if the underground city was dark and there was a power outage, it was never dark to the extreme.
There were always lights from rich families shining out, giving them a little bit of light.
But in Jiang Xun’s memory, such light was gray.
The gray concrete walls of the dormitory.
The gray reinforced concrete of the underground city.
There was also the rotten gray skin of the creatures on the surface.
Therefore, gray was the color Jiang Xun hated the most.
“Gray.” As Jiang Xun spoke, the gray images of her original world flashed in her mind unconsciously.
The lines on the lie detector’s screen were like the fluctuations of the stock market, up and down violently.
“You’re lying. You didn’t pass the mission,” The staff member immediately said.
Jiang Xun was speechless.
Qiyao was speechless.
Mingxia was speechless.
[There’s finally something that Jiang Xun isn’t good at.]
[She really isn’t good at lying!]
[It’s good that this Jiang Jiang is closer to an ordinary person. Otherwise, she’s too all-rounded and has a high IQ. I always feel that she’s far away from us.]
[You’ll know if you watch Jiang Jiang’s livestreaming. Although she’s all-rounded and smart, she’s also very down-to-earth. Even if there’s nothing she’s not good at, you won’t feel that she’s distant from you.]
Jiang Xun tried a few more times, but she failed.
Jiang Xun had specially waited for Qiyao and Mingxia to come out and had even helped them solve the maze.
Hence, Qiyao and Mingxia did not leave and stayed with Jiang Xun.
“Jiang Jiang, why don’t you just treat this as an act?” Mingxia said, “When you act, you’re acting as someone else. You’re not acting as yourself. Therefore, the question you answer isn’t not your own answer, but the answer of a fictional character you play.”
[Sister Fan, you’re so quick-witted!]
[Wait, Jian Shuixin hasn’t come out yet?]
[It’s been so long and it still hasn’t come out. Why doesn’t she just give up?]
[Jian Shuixin has set up so many characters. It’s better to set up a stupid beauty character this time.]
“Yes, yes, yes!” Qiyao nodded. “That’s a good idea. Don’t treat these answers as your own. You can create a fictional character for yourself.”
“Alright, I’ll try.” Jiang Xun closed her eyes and adjusted herself before challenging again.
This time, she passed it on her first try.
Qiyao and Mingxia also passed on their first try.
The second task was to make a call to the tenth person in their WeChat contact list.
“This mission is obviously targeted at Sister Yao. Sister Yao said that she’s not good at socializing.”
The tenth person in Mingxia’s contact list was his friend, and she passed the test quickly.
Qiyao’s was an actress.
The two of them had worked together before, so they added each other on WeChat. However, they had never contacted each other in private. They only liked each other’s moments occasionally when they saw them.
Qiyao made a voice call.
[The atmosphere between the two of them is awkward.]
[They’re so realistic. It’s definitely the real deal.]
Jiang Xun’s tenth contact was Min Zhenming, Chengye’s assistant.
Jiang Xun raised an eyebrow. When Zhenming went to pick her up from Wenping High School, they had indeed added each other on WeChat.
Chengye’s reason was that he might have to look for her through Zhenming in the future.
Jiang Xun didn’t mind. It was just adding each other on WeChat, and she didn’t have to reply to him.
Just like now, she had blacklisted Chengye’s WeChat account.
...
As for Zhenming’s phone, she didn’t blacklist it because she had forgotten about it.
She didn’t expect the tenth person to be Zhenming.
The main thing was that although WeChat names were also sorted by letters, they each had their own nicknames.
Jiang Xun was used to adding a bracket behind their nicknames to make a note so that it would not ruin their original WeChat names.
“Who is this?” The staff member asked.
“He’s Jiang Chengye’s assistant, Min Zhenming,” Jiang Xun could only say.
[Is it appropriate for Jiang Xun to call her father by his name?]
[If you haven’t suffered other people’s suffering, don’t try persuade others to be a saint]
[You haven’t experienced the hardships that Jiang Xun has gone through. Don’t point fingers at Jiang Xun and say she’s wrong.]
[If it were you, would you still be able to call your biological father “Dad” if he cheated on your mother during her pregnancy, married a mistress after angering her to death, and then threw you in the countryside for 11 years?]
[You don’t have to be the Holy Mother of the internet.]
...
Jiang Xun clicked on Zhenming’s profile picture and called him.
Zhenming was still working overtime at the office. Although it was Saturday, Chengye was also in the office and had brought Jixuan along.
Although Jixuan was still in school, it was already the holidays. From this year onwards, Chengye would let Jixuan come to the company to familiarize himself with the company’s affairs as long as Jixuan was on leave.
It was all in preparation for Jixuan to start working in the company and inherit it.
Now, he was letting Jixuan familiarize himself with the company’s business and various matters in advance.
Zhenming was in Chengye’s office, reporting to him about work while Jixuan listened.
Zhenming’s phone rang at this moment.
In order to avoid missing out on the latest news in the mall, Zhenming’s phone was not on silent mode.
He apologized to Chengye in the middle of his report before taking out his phone.
Zhenming was taken aback when he saw Jiang Xun’s name. He picked up the call and subconsciously called out, “Boss!”
Jiang Xun was speechless.
[Good fellow! Jiang Chengye’s assistant is a big shot, but he’s calling Jiang Xun boss!]
[What did Jiang Xun do to the assistant? Why is there fear and respect in the way the assistant addressed Jiang Xun?]
“What are you calling me?” Jiang Xun was shocked.
Was Zhenming triggered by something?
