Chapter 499: Helping You Win
Not only were the other guests confused, but all the program staff were confused too.
The cameraman who followed Xia Xibei and Nie Zehai captured the whole process on film.
After knowing the rules and requirements, Nie Zehai’s first reaction was also to find an alliance. After all, how long would it take if they only relied on themselves?
But Xia Xibei stopped him.
“No, we’ll just do it ourselves.”
Forming an alliance with others could save a lot of effort. However, there was a downside.
It was a competition, and whoever took less time won.
If you cooperated with others, you had to move at the same time as them.
This would not be much of an advantage.
She wiped her nose with a thumb and said proudly, “Don’t worry, I’ll show you what it means to be the best of the best!”
Looking at Xia Xibei’s confident expression, Nie Zehai was skeptical.
Although Xia Xibei said that she could help him win just before the recording of the show, he did not really believe her.
The reason they said that in front of the host was because they didn’t want to be made into a couple by the show.
Of course, Nie Zehai also thought of another solution. If Xia Xibei did not perform well, he could also work it out.
But he didn’t expect Xia Xibei to be so confident!
The best of the best? That was a big mouthful!
If the moment was edited into the show and she didn’t do well, who knew how happy her haters would be?
Xia Xibei did not know what was in Nie Zehai’s mind.
She said to him, “Let’s go.”
Nie Zehai was bewildered, following her obediently. His attitude made him look like her little brother, rather than several years her elder.
Xia Xibei led him to one of the tires. “This is it!”
Nie Zehai was just about to ask how she knew when he saw her bend down, grab the tire with both hands, and lift it up!
Holy cow! What kind of strength was this?
Nie Zehai and the photographer’s jaws dropped.
Xia Xibei’s movements were effortless, as if she had picked up a pair of chopsticks from the ground, simple and easy.
Her movements were casual and natural, so much so that Nie Zehai could not help but suspect that this tire was an inflatable one.
Next, Xia Xibei’s actions became even more bewildering.
The other teams all worked like this: one person held the tire while another person copied the numbers. After all, the tire was very heavy.
They could also flip the tires over, but after flipping it over, if it wasn’t their numbers, wouldn’t it help the other teams?
Xia Xibei held the tire with both hands and looked down to see the numbers. Her posture was relaxed, as if the tire was weightless and airy.
Nie Zehai’s expression stiffened and he followed suit, looking down.
When he looked clearly at the color of the numbers, he was stunned once again.
It was red!
She had guessed it!
What kind of luck was this? She really got it right!
Xia Xibei wrote down the number. “651575. Hmm, all right. let’s go.”
After saying that, she bent slightly at the waist and put the tire down.
Nie Zehai continued to walk after her with a dazed look on his face.
The two walked around. Xia Xibei picked another tire. “This one.”
“I…”
Nie Zehai had not yet said anything before Xia Xibei squatted down and lifted the tire up with one hand.
Nie Zehai and the photographer were left speechless.
Nie Zehai looked at the camera with a little embarrassment on his face and said quietly, “I’ll help later.”
The photographer pursed his lips and did not dare to laugh out loud.
Unfortunately, this tire was not theirs.
Xia Xibei did not mind. She put the tire down and continued to move.
By the third tire, Nie Zehai rushed up.
“Let me…”
His eyes widened.
What the-! It was this heavy?!
