A car accident, our family of three crossed

After hesitating for half a quarter of an hour, the waiter finally untied the straps on the scroll and spread out the scroll.

"The winner of the couplet tonight is friend number 36." The waiter announced the answer to everyone in a loud voice, and then read the content on the scroll again, "The second line of this friend's couplet is: Moon-reflecting Lake, reflecting the moon's shadow, the moon's shadow is reflected in the Moon-reflecting Lake, the moon lake lasts for ten thousand years, and the moon's shadow lasts for ten thousand years."

After finishing the reading, the waiter held the unfolded scroll towards everyone so that they could have a look at it.

After all, it's not just the second line that's well matched, the font is also unique! Even if it's a comparison of words, this has to be the first.

The participants in the audience looked at the font and read the second line over and over again, and they all felt inferior.

Whether they are comparing couplets or comparing words, they cannot win. Who are these powerful people?

Zhou Ting subconsciously glanced at Hang Shuheng and was full of admiration. If he were asked to come up with a couplet, he didn't think he could come up with such a good second line.

He whispered congratulations: "Brother Shuheng, congratulations!"

Hang Shuheng curled the corners of his lips slightly, everything was as expected.

On the other side, Cao Qianyu's face changed drastically when she heard the answer. This was not her number. Even if she was unwilling to admit it, she thought she could not come up with such a couplet.

However, the fact of the disastrous defeat dealt a great blow to her strong self-esteem. She lowered her head, her face looking extremely ugly.

At this time, Mei Yaosheng beside him was very tactless and said, "Miss Cao, that's the second line you got right, right? I knew it..."

But before he could finish his words, Cao Qianyu scolded him harshly, "Shut up."

Cao Qianyu's eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to poke holes in him one after another. How could this man have no sense at all? Didn't he think she had embarrassed him enough?

The goddess spoke, Mei Yaosheng dared not disobey and just shut up.

At this moment, he began to realize that something was wrong. Looking at Cao Qianyu's extremely ugly face, could it be that Miss Cao did not win? How could this be possible? How could his goddess not win?

If Song Ning was present and could see through their psychological activities, he would definitely say that they were a perfect match.

When the audience saw Cao Qianyu's expression, they could understand that it was definitely not the second line she came up with. Moreover, from the vigorous and powerful handwriting, it was obvious that it was definitely not something a woman could write.

Then someone started to get curious and asked the guy on the stage: "Who is number 36?"

In private, many people also began to speculate, such as Li Chengan and others.

"Do you think that person could be Brother Hang?"

"It's possible. This number is very late. I just noticed that when Brother Hang finished writing, the time just ended."

Several people discussed it in low voices, and the more they thought about it, the more it seemed to be the case.

"Okay, okay, stop talking and wait and see."

Seeing that the guy on the stage was about to announce the identity of that friend, several people quickly stopped talking and looked towards the stage.

A young man came up to the stage holding a tray with thirty-six small wooden signs on it. On the back of each numbered wooden sign was a different person's name.

When the waiter reached out to pick up the wooden sign with number 36, his hand touched nothing. When he looked up, the sign was already in the hands of Mr. Shen.

The other referees couldn't help but complain when they saw that the wooden sign was taken away by Mr. Shen quickly. He was not young, but his hands and feet were not slow at all.

Those who were a step slower couldn't help but crane their necks to see. If they didn't have to maintain their dignity as scholars, they would have wanted to move closer to see it together.

Mr. Shen slowly turned over the wooden sign, and the large characters written on it came into view.

"Shangtang Village, Hang Shuheng." He read out the name with full vigor, then raised the wooden sign and asked the audience, "Excuse me, who is this young friend?"

Upon hearing this, Hang Shuheng did not act pretentiously, but stood up openly and bowed to the judges on the stage, "Junior Hang Shuheng, I am honored to meet you."

When Dean Cao heard Hang Shuheng's name being read out, his face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

As Hang Shuheng's name was read out, all kinds of different voices suddenly came from the audience.

Those viewers who were optimistic about Hang Shuheng before became proud, "See what I said? I said Hang Tongsheng had a chance to win the prize, but you didn't believe it."

When Li Chengan and others heard this answer, they were also very happy for Hang Shuheng. Li Chengan was so excited that he forgot the occasion and shouted from a distance, "Brother Hang, congratulations on winning the first place."

"Okay, buddy, keep a low profile and stop talking." A classmate beside him quickly pulled his sleeve and reminded him quietly, "Didn't you see Dean Cao's face, which was so dark that it looked like water could be squeezed out of it? You are still showing off here."

Li Chengan reacted immediately and stopped talking with some embarrassment.

On the other side, Mei Yaosheng froze in place as if struck by lightning. But it was only for a moment. He quickly came to his senses and questioned, "Impossible, how could he have come up with it? He must have cheated."

Even his goddess Miss Cao didn't win. Hang Shuheng was just a person who was kicked out of the academy. How could it be possible?

As soon as he finished speaking, an unhappy voice came from outside the venue, "Why, is this friend questioning us at Wangjiang Tower and thinking that we are unfair and unjust?"

Outside the crowd, a group of people walked in. The one leading the group was the owner of Wangjiang Tower, Shopkeeper Liu, and walking side by side with him were Zhou Huan and Shopkeeper Lu.

Hang Shuheng was quite surprised to see the newcomer. He turned around and asked Zhou Ting in a low voice, "So the owner of Wangjiang Tower is Manager Liu."

Zhou Ting nodded in response, "That's right. Otherwise, why do you think I was able to book the private room with the best view?"

Shopkeeper Liu slowly walked up to Mei Yaosheng and asked, "My dear friend, please tell me about it."

"I, I, I didn't mean that, it's just, just..." Mei Yaosheng was so nervous that he was speechless and couldn't say anything.

Even if he was stupid, he could understand that if this matter escalated to the level of slandering Wangjiang Tower for cheating, it would not end well. They in the Mei Mansion could not afford to offend Manager Liu.

Dean Cao, who had been sullen all the time, stood up and spoke at this time, "Everyone, it's no wonder that he had this misunderstanding. I, Cao, am also a little confused."

"Oh? What's your doubt?" The person asking the question was Mr. Shen on the platform. With just a quick glance, he knew that this man was not going to say anything good.

Dean Cao did not directly answer Mr. Shen's words, but looked at Hang Shuheng and said, "You were also a student under me. I still recognize your handwriting. This couplet is obviously not your handwriting. What do you want to explain?"

Hang Shuheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled, but before he could say anything, someone spoke for him.
