Chapter 45 Winner
"Lin Zhiqing got three points? Why? Isn't she a sheep?"

"She's a damn sheep, and everyone's been fooled by her!"

"That's impossible! She already pointed out the other two wolves, and even the Wolf Master couldn't find her!"

"Master Wolf was stabbed on the second night. Lin Zhiqing must have figured it out. She fooled everyone!"

The crowd quickly realized that Lin Zhiqing had deceived everyone.

She is the only wolf left in this round, and she has not been found yet, so she is the only one who can score a point.

In the Wolf-Sheep Game, a game where group cooperation is more important than individual cooperation, Lin Zhiqing is the only winner!
"Impossible, how could Lin Zhiqing win?" Most people couldn't believe that the final winner of this game was Lin Zhiqing.

"How is it impossible?" The gentle woman who had just played games with Lin Zhiqing was the first to refute:
"This is a game, more than anything else, a competition. If it's a competition, how can there be any cheating? Whoever said Lin Zhiqing was brainless? I'd be the first to disagree!"

Not only her, but other people also expressed support for Lin Zhiqing.

"Can you call Lin Zhiqing brainless? Who spread the rumor that she's a fool?"

"Don't believe all rumors, don't believe all rumors. Lin Zhiqing is outstanding in appearance and has a kind heart. Who says she is not worthy of Prince Jiang?"

"How could you guys change your attitude so quickly? Have you forgotten that Lin Zhiqing was unfaithful to her husband and went off to do business?"

"What's wrong with doing business? Isn't Miss Lu also doing business? If no one does business, where will you get food and supplies from?"

"I can smell the sourness of some people. Apart from anything else, can you understand how to play this wolf-sheep game?"

……

The discussion was so loud that it soon reached the stands.

The design of the Bachelor's Mansion is very exquisite. Just by sitting in the stands, you can have a clear view of the game.

"Grandma, look, Miss Lin won!" Miss Hua jumped up suddenly, waving her arms, looking a little excited.

The old lady had already noticed the wolf-sheep game. At this moment, her eyes widened, her lips slightly parted, and she was very surprised: "Which Miss Lin?"

"Who else could it be?" Miss Hua stamped her feet. "Lin Zhiqing, she wins!"

In fact, the old lady didn’t see it, she just didn’t believe it.

She knew how difficult the Wolf-Sheep Game was. In previous years, the points system had resulted in no winner.

Because this game relies on the brain, after three rounds of games, there are too many variables, and only a few people can reach three points.

And who is Lin Zhiqing? She is the famous "three-no" daughter in Shengjing City!
The thing she was most criticized for was that she was brainless and she once defended her traitorous father in public.

Such a stupid and brainless person can't even understand the most basic situation, let alone the wolf-sheep game.

"She...when did she become so smart?" The old lady looked at the other female relatives around her.

How could anyone else possibly answer this?

This brought great shock to the old lady's heart.

On the one hand, she particularly hated Lin Zhiqing's traitorous parents, and also hated Lin Zhiqing's rebellious behavior.

But on the other hand, the wisdom displayed by Lin Zhiqing today exceeded her imagination and also subverted the image of Lin Zhiqing in her mind.

This complicated feeling left the old lady speechless for a moment.

"Madam, I don't think this child is as dumb as the rumors say. On the contrary, he's quite intelligent." "That's wrong. What can you tell from just one competition? It's just good luck."

"The Lin family is full of fools, but just looking at Lin Zhiqing's appearance and demeanor, if it weren't for what happened to her father, she could be the mistress of any family."

Several wives of high-ranking officials had a heated discussion about Lin Zhiqing, and the old lady listened quietly without saying a word.

At the same time, others also turned their attention to the Wolf Sheep Game.

At the piano competition, Princess Pingning had her eyes closed, immersed in the melodious music of her own piano, completely unaware that everyone's attention had shifted elsewhere.

When she finished singing but still received no applause, she realized something was wrong.

When she opened her eyes, Princess Pingning discovered that everyone's attention was drawn to the Wolf-Sheep Game.

She didn't know the inside story and thought that Lin Zhiqing was embarrassed by the people she arranged, and a bright smile immediately appeared on her face.

"So, did Lin Zhiqing lose miserably?" She asked someone to put away her zither and looked down at the men sitting in the front row.

But they did not flatter her as usual, and at the same time follow her words to belittle Lin Zhiqing. Instead, they echoed her a few times in a very perfunctory manner without even turning their heads.

It was only then that Princess Pingning realized something was wrong. She saw surprise and admiration in their eyes.

But she had only seen this kind of look when they looked at her!
Even though she was slow-witted, she had already noticed the problem at this time.

The maid finally arrived at this time and whispered something about the situation in her ear.

"What? How could that idiot..." Princess Pingning's voice was very sharp, which was inconsistent with the gentleness she usually created, and the others frowned when they heard it.

"Why is the princess so noisy today? The piano music isn't as beautiful as before."

"It seems that Lin Zhiqing is very intelligent and her speech is very logical. Did you hear her analysis just now? She and Prince Jiang seem to be a good match."

"Keep your voice down, it won't be good if the princess hears you."

Princess Pingning suppressed her anger and looked in the direction of the voice, but she couldn't figure out who was speaking.

After being humiliated like this, Princess Pingning's lips turned pale and she could only lean on the maid to walk out of the venue.

The men who usually cared about her seemed not to have seen this scene, and all stretched their necks to look at Lin Zhiqing.

There was curiosity, surprise and admiration in their eyes, as if they were not the ones who had just mocked Lin Zhiqing.

At the same time, Lin Zhiqing stood tall and graceful, with a faint smile on her lips, and nodded to Lin Shian who was coming over.

"You... when did you learn this wolf-sheep game?" Lin Shi'an looked at her as if he was looking at a stranger, with a very complicated look.

He originally thought that Lin Zhiqing would completely discredit the Lin family today, but now it seems that not only was it not lost, but some of it was even earned back.

The person in front of him looked very unfamiliar to him.

Before Lin Zhiqing could answer, a loud gong sound suddenly came from the platform.

Then, the old lady's deep voice rang out:

"Everyone take a break for a cup of tea first. After a cup of tea, the second round of competition will officially begin!"
