Chapter 277: Chapter 256: Randomly Pulling a Champion
A granny was wearing a shirt almost identical to Ji Xizhiâs, even the sunhat was the same, only with slight differences in color and pattern. She quickly grabbed Ji Xizhi and anxiously said:
âHey, young lady, donât leave yet. I see you might be here alone? Weâre just short of one person here. I see youâre by yourself, why not join our group, and weâll participate in this⊠whatever event together!â
The grannyâs social skills were maxed out, as she spoke, she dragged Ji Xizhi a little closer to the front of the event.
At the forefront of the event, there were several big prize pictures, showing various prizes participants could win, each enlarged for emphasis.
This was deliberately designed by the university students organizing the event to ensure everyone paid attention to the legal education content. Prizes could only be claimed based on rankings in the legal quiz game.
In fact, except for the first prize supermarket card sponsored by the store owner, the other prizes were not really valuable, but they were free, so getting them was a win.
Grabbing free stuff is what the idle middle-aged and elderly villagers around here love most, and the university students had tapped into the social psychology spot on.
After listening to the legal education lesson, not only did the elderly participants not leave, but they even went up to review the lecture content to secure a high rank in the upcoming game.
The granny dragged Ji Xizhi directly in front of the big prizes and pointed as she said:
âThis activity, just by participating you can win a prize. Why are you leaving! First prize can even be exchanged for a supermarket card worth several hundred. Letâs do it together!â
âEven if you donât win a big prize, didnât you hear them say it? At the very least, you can still get a whole basket of eggs!â
The granny said excitedly.
[Eggs! The perfect incentive to keep the elderly focused!!!]
[Hahaha, what a bizarre turn of events with Zhi Zhi being dragged into this by a granny. Never in my wildest dreams! A granny calling Zhi Zhi âyoung ladyâ has me in stitches~]
[This granny is truly impressive. Randomly grabbing a champion for her three-player team, sheâs got quite the eye!]
[But if Ji Xizhi joins, isnât it kinda unfair? The rest seem to be all elderly folks!]
Fans in Ji Xizhiâs live stream were also thrown off by this ridiculous turn of events.
But looking at the site with the red banner of legal education slogans, there was a moment of familiarity and reasonableness.
[I donât know why, but looking at this banner makes me think of Ji Xizhi in the future joining team-building activities with intellectuals!]
[I felt the same, Iâm so excited watching this! Iâll be a fan of Zhi Zhi foreverâââ(shouting)]
On site, Ji Xizhi also didnât expect that just passing by to listen to a legal education talk, she would get pulled to join an event team.
The granny who pulled her seemed quite elderly, Ji Xizhi was afraid of hurting her, so she didnât dare struggle and just followed as the granny led her a bit further forward.
Listening to the grannyâs enthusiastic persuasion.
Ji Xizhi couldnât help but interrupt the grannyâs hopes, she proactively said, âGranny, it might not be convenient for me to join the event.â
With a crisp voice, Ji Xizhi declined and slightly pulled down the brim of her hat, revealing a young, blushing face.
The granny holding onto Ji Xizhi then realized she had grabbed a young girl by mistake.
Laughing and crying, the granny said, âOh dear, why are you dressed like this, young lady! I made a mistake, oops!â
Ji Xizhi pointed to the beach by the sea: âItâs quite sunny over there.â
The granny then understood, seeing as how her own similar attire was top-notch for breathability and sun protection, it wasnât bad for a young girl to wear it either!
The granny glanced again at Ji Xizhiâs outfit, feeling more fashionable in her own attire.
However, the egg-grabbing event was about to start, and she didnât have more time to look. Seeing Ji Xizhi couldnât join, she quickly turned to find others nearby.
The first prize supermarket card was worth five hundred, some joined the game just to get more eggs, while others aimed specifically for that five hundred.
The granny who tried to team with Ji Xizhi was Granny Zheng, who had come over from a somewhat distant village. Only three people came from her village, lacking one for a full team.
But with Granny Zhengâs excellent recruiting skills, a four-person team was quickly formed.
Just as Granny Zhengâs four-person team was complete, the event hadnât started yet, but a few university students from the organizing team got into an argument with a group of grannies for some reason.
âWhy canât we? You didnât say anything earlier, didnât you say anyone could participate?â
âBut bringing your grandson isnât appropriate, your grandsonâs mind is too sharp, we canât compete, you might as well take the five hundred supermarket card directly!â
âIf thatâs the case, then Iâll call my grandson too, anyway, they didnât say we couldnât bring sharp-minded ones!â

âAlright, alright, youâre all so eager, go ahead and find them if you want. My grandsonâs a university student, graduated with honors, go ahead and find someone like that!â
In the midst of all this bickering, the university students organizing the event were already at their witâs end.
A female student tried to persuade: âGranny, this really isnât allowed, weâre organizing this legal education event for middle-aged and elderly people, technically others shouldnât participate.â
âWhy not? You didnât say anything earlier. I even had my grandson look, this activity paper doesnât say we canât participate, youâre running a fake event if you donât let us! You university students are just bullying us elderly for not being literate!â
The granny standing at the front, hands on hips, pointed at the two university students and scolded.
The female university student quickly ran out of words and exchanged looks with her peer beside her, deciding to just let it go for now, with a mind towards maintaining peace.
After all, the activity had to go on. With the participants all being senior citizens, it would be troublesome to handle any incidents. They decided to allow them to bring in their recruits, intending to increase the game difficulty to balance it out later.
With this setting a precedent, the other families soon brought their school-educated children, some even called in their primary school-aged grandchildren, simply to compete.
However, the village Granny Zheng belonged to was a bit further, meaning going back to fetch people would conclude the event before they returned, which was impractical. Besides, Granny Sun had just found a partner for her team, making it a full four-person team, so they decided not to swap anyone.
Five or six minutes later, all participating teams were ready, and the event was about to start.
