TWWMABMTBH Chapter 33

Rong Ziyan’s attire was truly eye-catching, with stark contrasts that made him a beacon as he walked through the school. Passing students couldn’t help but glance at him, then glance again.

The first look was like, “Who is this idiot wearing this out?”

The second look was, “Huh? This young man is quite handsome, how can I not look?”

The system was also collapsing: “Rong! Don’t you think they’re looking at us like we’re big fools?”

Rong Ziyan was also unhappy: “What can I do? Isn’t this what the department requested?”

But clearly, the department head’s original intention was not this. Because when Rong Ziyan stood at the door of the department head’s office, the department head couldn’t help but widen his eyes, unable to speak for a long time.

It was evident that he too was blinded by this outfit.

“You, you, you, why did you come dressed like this?” The department head stammered.

What he had imagined was that Rong Ziyan was handsome, wearing a brightly colored, lively casual outfit, along with a soft, fluffy little goose, which would surely create a sensation and draw attention. Not only would it create a healthy and vibrant image for the veterinary department, but it would also show the department’s love for small animals.

But Rong Ziyan’s red and green upper body was a mess, and the pants on his lower body, which looked like they were from the 1980s, were also just bizarre no matter how you looked at them.

It was only because Rong Ziyan was well-proportioned and handsome that he managed to pull off a retro look. If he were any fatter, this outfit would be unbearable to look at.

The department head took a deep breath and couldn’t help but say, “Little Rong! I remember I told you it was about natural scenery, not scenery described by Chinese characters!”

Rong Ziyan answered expressionlessly, “This is the veterinary department’s uniform.”

Department head: “…But this color scheme…”

Rong Ziyan: “You chose it yourself during the military training.”

Department head: “Even your goose will despise you!”

Rong Ziyan picked up the goose, which selectively only looked at his face: “Doesn’t seem like it.”

Department head: “…”

Three consecutive blows, the department head was completely defeated.

However, time was running out, and the interview crew was arriving soon. Rong Ziyan didn’t have time to go back and change clothes.

In the end, a young woman from the student union who came to help came up with a good idea, “Why not have the senior wear something else over his short sleeves?”

“What to wear? Borrow a jacket temporarily?” The department head looked around, but it was summer, the hottest time, so where would anyone be wearing a jacket?

The young woman had a flash of inspiration, “The white lab coats from the veterinary department’s lab would be perfect.”

“The senior’s pants are also white, and the lab coat is half-length, which can cover the top, and it doesn’t matter if a little of the short sleeves underneath show. It won’t look bad at all.”

The department head thought that was a good idea, so he pushed Rong Ziyan to go change clothes.

“Go quickly! Don’t waste that face of yours.” The department head thumped his chest, feeling like he was going blind just looking at Rong Ziyan’s upper body.

Rong Ziyan followed their suggestion and put on the white lab coat, and sure enough, it felt different instantly.

The young woman from the student union was also quick. In a moment, she got Rong Ziyan to put on a pair of non-prescription gold-rimmed glasses. After concealing the coldness in Rong Ziyan’s eyes, a gentle and handsome Dr. Rong instantly appeared. He was even more handsome than the current top idols.

“Wow! Daddy is so handsome!”

The goose, which had been glued to Rong Ziyan, immediately wanted to stick to him, sending its love hearts to its increasingly handsome daddy non-stop.

Even the old man, the department head, couldn’t help but nod repeatedly.

They had finally overcome this embarrassing crisis. Another ten minutes or so passed, and the crew finally arrived. Along with the crew, there were also Rong Ziyan’s two teammates for the program.

It was said that in the next two months, these two would be with Rong Ziyan, and in the name of a “surprise attack,” would fight against the other teams that had already won their group battles.

Since the other teams each had three people, when the crew invited Rong Ziyan, they also hoped that the agricultural university would recommend two others to be Rong Ziyan’s teammates and participate in the program together.

The two who came this time were the candidates recommended by the agricultural university.

Because Rong Ziyan was the main interview subject, the crew deliberately put the veterinary department at the end of the shoot, so it wouldn’t matter if it took a little longer to gather material.

The previous part was routine inquiries, and a shot of the veterinary department’s usual learning and lab areas.

This step was quick. What was left was the individual interviews with Rong Ziyan and his teammates. But because they were making a trailer, they had to specially edit a segment that showed their excellence as top students.

At the moment, the crew needed to prepare the questions they would be asking, so they let Rong Ziyan and his two teammates rest on the chairs next to them for a while, and get to know each other.

But no one had expected that those who were found were all familiar faces. One was the top student from the mechanical engineering department, and the other was a female top student from the landscaping department. They had all worked with Rong Ziyan on papers before.

However, with the three of them sitting together now, none of them were good at enlivening the atmosphere, so the scene was a little awkward.

But soon they would face a rapid-fire Q&A, so compared to the tension, this awkward silence wasn’t much.

“Ten more minutes!” A message came from the crew, and they also gave Rong Ziyan and the others a heads up, saying they would mainly test their knowledge of their majors.

The mechanical engineering student was okay, but the landscaping girl was a little nervous. Her stomach was already upset, and under extreme tension, she couldn’t help but feel nauseous, leaning back in her chair with her eyes closed, and her face was also a little pale.

Seeing this, Rong Ziyan asked someone for a glass of hot water for her.

“Thank you.” The girl smiled, still trying hard to maintain a calm appearance.

It was a natural reaction. After all, it was the first time participating in such a big event. Not to mention this girl, the mechanical engineering boy also had a pale face, with weak legs and trembling knees.

The only one who was normal was Rong Ziyan. After giving the girl the water, he even had the heart to sit there and read the latest issue of a core journal.

“You, you’re not nervous at all?” The mechanical engineering top student couldn’t help but ask Rong Ziyan.

Rong Ziyan didn’t even lift his head as he retorted, “What’s there to be nervous about?”

“Well, isn’t there a rapid-fire Q&A in a while?”

Rong Ziyan: “Oh, is there? Did you get your scholarship through connections?”

Mechanical Engineering Top Student: “???”

Rong Ziyan: “Did you pay for your paper?”

The mechanical engineering top student shook his head violently.

Rong Ziyan: “Did you have someone else do your experiments for you?”

Mechanical engineering top student: “There’s absolutely no way!”

Rong Ziyan: “So what are you afraid of? If you can’t answer, others won’t be able to either! Aren’t you the encyclopedia of your department?”

That’s right! If he couldn’t answer, others might not be able to either! The mechanical engineering top student suddenly understood, and a big stone fell from his heart, and he regained his confidence.

The beautiful landscaping top student was a little doubtful about life after listening to their conversation, wondering where this kind of straight-man confidence came from?

Had they never heard of the phrase, “learning is endless”? The production team hadn’t said that all the questions would be from the university curriculum! It was said that there would even be some obscure historical common sense.

“You guys…” The beautiful senior hesitated whether or not to tell them the truth. But after a second thought, she thought, nevermind, maybe being confident would lead to serendipitous luck.

And so, she wiped the sweat off her forehead and continued to lean back on her chair to rest. The mechanical engineering student, seeing her nervous, started comforting her. But of course, it had little effect and the more he comforted her the more nervous she got.

Rong Ziyan couldn’t watch anymore, and stopped the mechanical engineering student, “Don’t worry! She definitely won’t be nervous.”

Mechanical Engineering: “How do you know?”

Rong Ziyan: “Haven’t you heard? The beauties from the landscaping department can all uproot big trees with their bare hands! They’re not afraid at all!”

Mechanical Engineering: “Re, really?”

He subconsciously moved a little further away from the beautiful senior.

The beautiful senior from the landscaping department was also shocked by these words. She suddenly opened her eyes and stared at Rong Ziyan for a long time, unable to find words. She really wanted to use her bare-handed big tree uprooting strength and slap Rong Ziyan to death.

She thought to herself, Rong Ziyan is so handsome, why does he talk like such a dog?

And the original tension was mostly gone because of Rong Ziyan’s words.

However, the next second, the crew called the senior to go first for the rapid-fire Q&A. The senior’s nerves tightened again.

Rong Ziyan cheered her up, “Don’t be afraid! If you’re scared, your sweet and sour pork rib colored lipstick won’t be bright.”

The beautiful senior took three deep breaths in place, but in the end, she couldn’t help it, and kicked Rong Ziyan out of anger: “Get lost!”

She became a female warrior in a split second, and walked towards the crew with imposing manner.

After all, with such a teammate who didn’t act like a human being, even the nerve-wracking on-site test had become something to look forward to!

As expected, the production team, which was known for being the most realistic, asked very tricky questions. But the real top students were fearless, and the senior naturally passed smoothly.

However, the mechanical engineering student who was listening on the sidelines couldn’t help but frown.

Rong Ziyan: “What’s the matter?”

Mechanical Engineering: “Don’t you think the scope is a bit too broad?”

The senior was probably driven mad by Rong Ziyan so she didn’t notice it, but Rong Ziyan and the mechanical engineering student who were listening on the sidelines all discovered it sensitively.

Although they weren’t from the landscaping department, they were clear on the scope of some common courses. For example, one math question was clearly from the graduate level.

But even that was fine, the more troublesome thing was that some of the questions for the senior were even related to film and television and tourism.

So, the mechanical engineering student started to get anxious, “What to do? I rarely pay attention to topics outside of studying.”

Rong Ziyan thought for a moment and said to him, “It’s okay, looking at your hair, everyone will understand! Just make sure you answer the questions related to our major correctly.”

The mechanical engineering student was a little confused. After touching the top of his head, he immediately realized the deeper meaning behind Rong Ziyan’s words.

It meant that looking at his sparse hair, they’d know that he had been in the lab for a long time and didn’t have time for leisure, everyone would understand.

Mmp, was that really a comfort and not ridicule?

The mechanical engineering student’s gaze at Rong Ziyan instantly changed, looking like he wanted to punch him immediately to vent his anger.

Pui! He knew Rong Ziyan was never a good person.

So angry that he stood up directly from the chair, the mechanical engineering student pointed at Rong Ziyan and said, “I don’t know, so does that mean you know? Whoever answers the least is the little brother!”

Rong Ziyan: “Okay, little brother, it’s your turn, little brother, go ahead, little brother!”

Mechanical Engineering: …

[Resentment value 1000]

However, the next scene didn’t give him time to refute Rong Ziyan. Because the crew quickly came over to call for people. The beautiful landscaping senior’s interview was quickly over, and it was the mechanical engineering student’s turn to go prepare.

However, under Rong Ziyan’s repeated prodding, the mechanical engineering top student had already turned into a warrior, eager to go to the battlefield immediately and prove his real strength to Rong Ziyan with his awesome kill count. He was also determined that this time he would make Rong Ziyan willingly call him big brother.

The beautiful landscaping senior had just come down, and seeing him so high-spirited, couldn’t help but ask Rong Ziyan, “What did you say to him? He looks very angry?”

“That can’t be.” Rong Ziyan slowly turned the page of the core journal in his hand, and then summarized their conversation, answering, “We just became sworn brothers, and he acknowledged me as his big brother, so he’s very excited right now.”

[Confusion value 1000]

Beautiful Senior: I don’t believe you!

It could only be said that under the irrigation of Rong Ziyan’s toxic chicken soup, the mechanical engineering top student also performed well, almost 100% accurate, which shocked the other party.

Because before they came, they were just thinking of using Rong Ziyan’s popularity to create some gimmicks, and didn’t think that the agricultural university team would go very far in the program.

The results were really surprising. The quality of these top students from the agricultural university was too high, comparable to the previous group from Nanjing University and Tsinghua University.

And their appearance was also good. Although the mechanical engineering student was a bit simple and honest, he was also tall and large. And the beautiful senior from the landscaping department, she had big eyes and a small face, with a temperament that could be described as “one’s spirit is refined by the books that one has read.”

Now, it was just unknown what Rong Ziyan’s details were. If Rong Ziyan really lived up to his reputation, then the next episode of their program would definitely be trending on social media!

These three were also elites among elites.

So, amidst the crew’s anticipation, Rong Ziyan sat down in his seat.

The opening was the usual few questions to ease the atmosphere, which Rong Ziyan answered impeccably.

So, this part quickly came to an end. Only the last two small questions were left.

One of them was, “Will temporarily leaving school to participate in the competition affect your studies?”

Because the crew also knew that many of these top students had research projects in hand.

Sure enough, after listening, Rong Ziyan couldn’t help but frown, “Will I have to leave Beijing for many days?”

Crew: “At least two months!”

Rong Ziyan lowered his head slightly, seemingly a bit troubled.

The crew thought that Rong Ziyan was worried about living expenses, because they had done some research beforehand and knew that Rong Ziyan had been working part-time while studying, so they immediately felt a lot of sympathy for the sad-looking young man in front of them, and quickly comforted him, “Don’t worry, you can tell the crew’s brothers and sisters about any difficulties you have!”

“Um… can I really talk about any difficulty?” Rong Ziyan hesitated to speak.

“Yes! Feel free to talk to the brothers and sisters, we can definitely help you solve it.”

“Then, I’ll say it.” Rong Ziyan nodded, intending to speak.

The department head of the veterinary department, who was watching from not far away, instinctively had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, he saw Rong Ziyan pick up the small little milky goose in his palm, and said to the crew with great distress, “If I really leave for two months, my goose will grow up!”
