You Take This One!

"A sharp-tongued, stubborn yet soft-hearted underachiever bottom x a taciturn, aloof, devoted, steady top"

The top has a secret crush on the bottom

1. After graduating high school, Xia Jingmo earned his first fortune by starting a business. He went on to catch one lucrative trend after another, rising from the last-ranked student in his year to one of two shining stars in the business world.

As for the other person known alongside him as one of the "Twin Stars," better not bring him up. He was Xia Jingmo's childhood friend and sworn rival, Fu Cangzhou, the top student in their year back in high school.

So when Fu Cangzhou died in a car accident, Xia Jingmo's first thought was that he deserved it.

"You competed with me for so long, even fighting me over a hotel room. Now look at you, living in this little box. You can't compete with me over anything anymore, can you?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a flash of white light brought him back to high school, where he was bound to a "Question-Answer Conquest System."

System: [Host must conquer the target, Fu Cangzhou, by answering questions. Different question types are worth different points. Once your cumulative score reaches 100, you can return to your original world! And, of course, there's a generous mystery prize waiting for you!]

Xia Jingmo frowned: What if I can't do it?

System: [Then you'll just have to keep answering questions until you reach your goal!]

Xia Jingmo: ...

Was it possible the thing he hated most in this life was answering questions, and the person he hated more than anyone was Fu Cangzhou?

2. To escape this hell sooner, Xia Jingmo had no choice but to use the methods he hated to conquer the person he hated.

The first question soon appeared.

[Single-choice question, worth 5 points.]

[You are late for school. Fu Cangzhou rides his bicycle past your house. Why?]

A. He's just passing by. B. He's taunting you. C. He's helping you. D. You don't know.

Xia Jingmo let out a laugh and chose "B" without hesitation.

System: [Incorrect answer. Score +0.]

Xia Jingmo was stunned: "Then is the answer A?!"

[Multiple-choice question, worth 10 points.]

[While playing basketball, you fall while protecting the girl you like. Fu Cangzhou walks toward you with a cold expression. What will he do next?]

A. Stand in front of you and sneer, "Serves you right."

B. Walk calmly past you and say, "Mind your own business."

C. Sweep you into his arms and ask, "Does it hurt?"

D. Insist on helping you to the infirmary: "We have to make sure you're not hurt."

Xia Jingmo pondered: Based on my years of experience with Fu Cangzhou, it has to be A and B!

System: [Incorrect answer. Score +0.]

Xia Jingmo: ? Could the answer actually be C and D?

3. Xia Jingmo had an epiphany.

The person who tied the knot could untie it. Why not just ask Fu Cangzhou himself?

[Fill-in-the-blank question, worth 5 points]

(1). You want to improve, so you ask Fu Cangzhou to explain a problem to you. He says ( ).

A. Get lost.

B. Not a chance.

C. Sure, but you have to give me a reason.

D. I'll explain it if you pay me.

Xia Jingmo: He doesn't need money, so it has to be A or B, right?

Fu Cangzhou: C.

System: [Congratulations, correct answer! Score +5!]

Xia Jingmo: ?

(2). During evening study, you accidentally fall asleep. Fu Cangzhou ( ) your notes and ( ) his school uniform over you.

A. Throws them away; makes you let go.

B. Pushes you aside; shows it to you.

C. Looks down on you; won't let you touch it.

D. Fills them in; drapes it over you.

Xia Jingmo: First, we can rule out D.

Fu Cangzhou: D.

System: [Congratulations, correct answer! Score +5!]

Xia Jingmo: Are these really the right answers?!

4. At last came the reading-comprehension question Xia Jingmo feared most.

[After you confess to the girl you like, she turns around and confesses to Fu Cangzhou. When you confront him, Fu Cangzhou tells you, "Other than what's right in front of me, I don't care about anyone." How should this sentence be interpreted?]

Xia Jingmo: It expresses the author's... homesickness?

System: [...]

Xia Jingmo: Fu Cangzhou, you answer this one!

Fu Cangzhou fell silent, an unusual thing for him: I refuse.

5. [Multiple-choice question, worth 99 points.]

[After high school graduation, Fu Cangzhou gives you a gift box. Inside is a letter. What does it say?]

A. I like you. B. I like you. C. I like you. D. I like you.

Xia Jingmo: ? What's the difference between this multiple-choice question and a single-choice one?

Wait, all the answers are "I like you"?!

Fu Cangzhou: Do I need to answer this one for you?

6. System: [Congratulations, Host! You've won a generous mystery prize! Ding, ding, ding! Happy wedding!]

Xia Jingmo looked at Fu Cangzhou and spread his hands: How about... you marry me?

Fu Cangzhou: We have to get married together.
