Next up are the gentle and refined young master Jia Mingchuan and the epitome of a lazy and sickly person Li Qingmi.

Li Qingmi was fortunate enough to get the chance to kick off.

Last semester's physical education class focused on table tennis. He believed that as long as he could return the ball, there wouldn't be a problem, let alone a mere photographer. This dedication fueled his enthusiasm!

"Beep... beep beep!" The staff's whistle rang out.

Li Qingmi: As before

Unexpectedly, Jia Mingchuan quickly followed up: repeating the same trick.

Li Qingmi: Performing martial arts and cultivating literature

Jia Mingchuan easily returned the ball: (The last sentence appears to be a fragment and doesn't translate directly.)

Li Qingmi: A man of refined manners

Jia Mingchuan: Saving the World and Bringing Peace to the People

For the first time, Li Qingmi found Jia Mingchuan to be a difficult person to deal with; he even deliberately targeted the corners of the table when playing ball: Min Yin Guo Fu

Jia Mingchuan: Enriching the Country and Ensuring the People's Well-being

Li Qingmi suspected this person had a grudge against the word "people," and waited two rounds before finally replying, "Traitor to the people, tyrant."

Jia Mingchuan: The Master's Self-Description

Li Qingmi technique wasn't great, narrowly caught the ball and returned it: a hypocrite.

Jia Mingchuan, without blushing or panting, said, "Ran Di reads books."

Li Qingmi was speechless. Not only was this photographer incredibly knowledgeable, but he was also so badly outmatched by the ball that he could barely keep up with the ball's play. "Words cannot fully express my feelings."

Jia Mingchuan: High spirits

[Waaaaah... I was laughing when I first started watching it, but now I can't laugh anymore.]

[ Brother Chuan, is it really necessary for a photographer to make such a fuss...?]

[ Brother Chuan, what else don't we know about you!]

[These idioms, I don't know the meaning of any of them... I've never even heard of some of them before.]

Chi Yining also found the competition quite interesting, but his feet were so sore that he didn't dare tell Brother Yan.

Yan Guiyun noticed that Chi Yining seemed preoccupied and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chi Yining smiled, a slight upturn at the corner of her mouth. "No."

Yan Guiyun patted his head and continued watching the game.

But soon the staff's voice rang out again. " Li Qingmi is out!"

Li Qingmi had no problem with the idiom chain game, but he was eliminated after failing to catch Jia Mingchuan's ball three times.

It doesn't matter anymore, he doesn't want to continue playing anyway, he wants to give up.

Moreover, he didn't think Chi Yining would be interested in him just because he won the competition. Right now, he saw Chi Yining as a walking gold coin, feeling that if he couldn't catch Chi Yining, the gold coin would grow legs and slip away.

He had even wondered if he would have enough pocket money if he cut it in half... but then he thought, his sister never has enough to spend every month and she even tries to take some from him. If he lost half of his allowance, he would be even less able to make ends meet, and he would probably be eating dirt when he went to school.

It's tough, it's tough, being a man is really tough.

The next pair to perform are Chen Shiyu and Hu Bing.

Chen Shiyu: "You should probably let the water flow a bit!"

After bending down to select her racket, Hu Bing smiled slightly at Chen Shiyu and said, "I think you'd be more inclined to go easy on me."

After the dice were rolled, Hu Bing got the chance to start the game and open the dragon head.

"Beep... beep beep!" The staff's familiar whistle rang out.

Hu Bing serves the ball: (A phrase implying someone is nearing the end of their life)

Chen Shiyu received the ball and returned it smoothly: He was over seventy years old.

At this moment, Hu Bing's face remained expressionless as he hit the ball: A rare treasure.

Chen Shiyu: Returning empty-handed from Baoshan

Hu Bing was like a machine at this moment, even when reciting idioms, she was cold. "A miraculous hand that brings back spring."

Chen Shiyu: Unarmed

Hu Bing: Blade Tree and Sword Mountain

Chen Shiyu: Landslide and Subsidence

Hu Bing: At a deadlock

Chen Shiyu: High-ranking and generous

Hu Bing: Favoritism

[After watching this program... I feel like my school days were a waste of time, what should I do?]

[Seriously, do you guys really think this is necessary?]

[The director is using a dating reality show as a pretext to tell us that even talented people can't find a partner, hahaha]

I want to see Chichi play, I want to see Chichi compete, but Chichi always ends up as the headliner...

[ Bingbing, you didn't mention you needed to study when you were figure skating, sob sob]

[Is the person upstairs a fake fan? Although Bingbing is the little prince of figure skating, Bingbing scored 695 points on the college entrance exam and will be a freshman next semester. Although we don't know her major, it seems she was admitted to Capital University of Foreign Languages.]
