Biting her lips, Song Yishi finally said, "I want help from the audience . "
She then pointed to a slightly chubby girl . . .
The girl was wearing glasses and was very cute . She stood up and said loudly, "It was Nelson Mandela, the greatest leader of South Africa . "
The host nodded . "Correct!"
Up until now, they had asked each other a total of seven questions . Huo Mian had gotten hers all correct while Song Yishi's only right answer was thanks to an audience member… How ironic . . .
More and more doubtful noises began coming from the audience . . .
"Didn't Miss Song study abroad for many years? Shouldn't she be knowledgeable and worldly? Why doesn't she know the most basic of things?"
"Yeah! It's strange to me too . She seems to know little to nothing while Mrs . Qin knows about everything… What a surprise!"
"Yeah, this is a live event and there's no chance to cheat . It's the best way to test one's intelligence . Mrs . Qin is truly amazing… She's young, never studied abroad, and I heard that she didn't even graduate from a top-tier university, but she's still so knowledgeable!"
Meanwhile, Song Yishi was almost about to explode from anger . She asked, "For which movie did Nicole Kidman win the 2003 Oscar for Best Actress?"
Before Huo Mian gave her answer, Jiang Xiaowei screamed in front of the television .
"F*cking b*tch! How low can she go?! She was just complaining about how Huo Mian intentionally asked her a medical question but now she's asking her all about foreign things knowing full well that Mian's never studied abroad! English songs and English movies? What a dirty bitch!"
Even Jiang Xiaowei couldn't help but curse Song Yishi out . . .
Surprisingly, Huo Mian answered calmly, "The movie's name is 'The Hours' . "
"Correct . " the host confirmed before Huo Mian continued, "What breed is the tiger in Ang Lee's 'Life of Pi'?"
"Siberian . . . " Song Yishi stammered out . . .
Huo Mian couldn't help but chuckle . "Girl, the tiger is Bengal, thank you very much . "
There were snickers coming from the audience as well, embarrassing Song Yishi to no end . . .
In front of his television, Gao Ran laughed as he sipped on a can of cola . "What made Mayor Song's daughter go to this show? Was she looking for torture? Is she a masochist? Does it pain her to not get tortured?"
Song Yishi immediately asked, "Which of Garcia Marquez's works is hailed as a masterpiece of the historical and social landscape of Latin America?"
Huo Mian: "One Hundred Years of Solitude . "
Then, she immediately asked, "Which famous Russian author wrote 'The Hunter's Notes' and 'House of Nobles'?"
"Leo Tolstoy," Song Yishi responded without hesitation .
"Leo Tolstoy was famous for 'Anna Karenina' and 'War and Peace' . Did you mix him up with someone else, Miss Song? The correct answer should be Turgenev . He was known for the works in my question . " Huo Mian looked at Song Yishi speechlessly . If she had known how weak this woman was, she wouldn't have wasted time dealing with her .
With that, the audience erupted into laughter once again . . .
"I'm so embarrassed for Miss Song! Mrs . Qin is completely wrecking her… Are they really friends? It doesn't look like it . . . " a girl in the audience asked quietly .
"Who the hell knows, but there's definitely nothing special about studying abroad at an amazing university . She can't even compare to our local talent, Mrs . Qin!" a sitting boy said while laughing .
In the midst of the sounds of ridicule, Song Yishi threw out her final question . "In the 1930s, when the U . S experienced its great depression, which American leader preceded President Roosevelt?"
What an obscure question to ask . . .
It was clear that no one in the audience knew the answer as many had their phones out, googling the correct response .
Once again, Huo Mian's response was instant . "Hoover . "
"Correct . " Even the host wanted to compliment Huo Mian .
Since Song Yishi played dirty, asking questions that were both foreign and obscure, Huo Mian decided that it was time to stop playing nice .
She was determined to send Song Yishi to her grave . . .
Huo Mian dug deep into her brain and finally came up with her final question . "In Xin Qiji's 'Buddhist Dancers Written on the Wall of Zaokou, Jiangxi', what comes after the line 'Thick green mountains could not cover up'?"
