Prince Charming's complicated love story 168 who own the egg??

"OKaye so both Lian and Sam hit the buzzer together... Well in that case I will take their answers in written and in case both of them gave correct answers, then we have no option than to go for a tie breaker round." Xi explained calmly. Her voice was devoid of any emotion but in reality her heart was thumping loudly against her rib cage. She wants Sam to win, with a silent prayer in her heart, she opened her eyes and took a deep breath before giving two pieces of paper to both Sam and Lian.

Both of them quickly write the answer and hand over their papers to Xi. Lian was smiling and Sam was also happy when he looked towards Joe who was glaring him from the very starting.

'What it was just a simple question' he shrugged ignoring his deadly glares.

Witnessing his carefree attitude, Joe narrowed his eyes towards him 'For God sake Sam how can you do this, only a stupid can think that at such a point, a simple question will be asked in such an important quiz. It was a trick question Sam.' He mentally face palmed himself when he thought what Sam had written on his sheet.

'Now I guess the only hope is Lian has also given the wrong answer so that they can go for tie breaker round' Joe shook his head that makes Sam's heart to beat fast. He just closed his eyes to pray that his answer is correct but from Joe's reaction, he knew something is not right here.

Just then Xi started announcing again, but they all were too caught up in glaring each other that they missed the small smile on Xi's face.

"Ladies and gentlemen my question was very simple and I am happy to announce that the contestant who has given correct answer has actually used his brain to give the answer. My question was: If in case you won this competition and you became the next emperor of our country and the first case came to you is of a woman who is claiming that a peacock gave a egg in her backyard so she owns the egg now where as the real owner of the peacock is also claiming that egg belongs to her. Now you have to decide who will own the egg.

All the spectators of the competition got confused when they listen to the question.

"What kind of ridiculous question was that. It's such a simple question, how can they ask such a question. Even a child can answer this."

Everyone has almost same views about the question but as soon as Tiya heard the question, she looked towards her left and then towards her right with her big eyes.

"Shit" she cursed loudly. Her mother ignored her but Ruby caught her reaction from the corner of her eyes.

She hold her hands and asked"What happened? the question was really simple. I am sure Sam will win"

"No Ruby, it's not a simple question, it's actually a trick question and I am hundred percent sure that Sam, in his pride, would have been in so much hurry to give his answer that he will definitely miss the actual meaning of the question." she shook her head, as there is a slight sadness on her face.

"Don't worry let's just listen to the results first. I am sure that our prince charming is not that dumb." Ruby hold her hands giving her a little assured look.

They both moved their attention towards the stage where Xi started reading answers from the papers.
