I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 288 Personal grudge game

It's not that enemies don't get together.

Zou Lian had never believed so much in the randomness of fate.

His good mood early in the morning was completely broken, and he felt as sick as if he had eaten a fly.

God knows how much effort he put in before filling out his application. After confirming with many parties, he finally chose BGI.

why?

Of course it was to avoid the enemy Su Chengyi!

After arriving at university, Zou Lian felt that he had never been so happy in his life.

Far away from my family of origin, far away from those dark years in the past.

Of course, he is far away from the hateful Su Chengyi.

In the days when he couldn't see Su Chengyi, he truly lived up to the sunny, cheerful and warm image that he had tried so hard to fake before.

He originally thought he was standing on a new starting line, but he didn't expect that after just two steps, he discovered that what was waiting for him at the end was not a bright future.

——But the biggest shadow in the first half of life.

At this time, the shadow was walking towards him as if nothing had happened, and even had a smile on his face that was as unbeatable as ever.

"What a coincidence."

Su Chengyi said with a smile.

Well, this is not a dream, this is real.

Zou Lian felt dizzy and said through gritted teeth:

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

"I didn't expect to meet you here. Are you also here to participate in this debate?"

Of course Su Chengyi could tell that Zou Lian was not very happy to see him.

But Zou Lian was unhappy, but he was quite happy, so he deliberately found nothing to say.

"Correct."

Zou Lian tried his best and finally managed to put on a sly smile.

"Who is this?"

The other players from UW asked curiously.

Zou Lian grinded his molar teeth a few times and was about to introduce him. Su Chengyi answered by himself:

"Hello, I'm Zou Lian's high school classmate. It's such a coincidence that I found out when I came here. It feels good to meet an acquaintance."

"Wow? Really?"

"This is so fateful!"

"Classmate Zou Lian, I really didn't expect that!"

Zou Lian wanted to hit Su Chengyi's politely smiling face with a stick.

It feels so good to meet someone familiar

What kind of big-tailed wolf are you pretending to be? !

Are you the kind of person who likes to socialize with others? !

It was obvious that this guy Su Chengyi just had to give him a try.

"Ah, do you need us to step aside and give you two old classmates some space to reminisce?"

The people on the UW debate team are very discerning.

Zou Lian secretly swore that if Su Chengyi agreed at this time, he would really tear off all the gold threads on the cuffs of his suit.

"No, no, no, let's talk about old things after the game.

No need to interrupt, you discuss it first, and I will go back first. "

Su Chengyi took a step back and smiled slightly.

"Chat later."

Finally, he extended his hand in a friendly manner.

Zou Lian originally thought he was going to shake hands, but due to the situation, he had to reluctantly hand it over.

Su Chengyi suddenly turned around, patted Zou Lian on the shoulder, and returned to the team.

Zou Lian felt that if his anger value could be displayed, he must be at the max by now.

From now on, this debate is no longer just an ordinary debate, it is completely a personal grudge match.

But

Zou Lian looked at Su Chengyi's back for a long time and just sighed softly.

It's been like this since childhood.

Su Chengyi is like the final BOSS with a health bar of 9999, and he is a first-level slime holding a small dagger at the beginning.

When Zou Lian was a child, he had been his imaginary enemy for so long. He fantasized about how to defeat him every day, but he didn't even know who he was.

As time went by, he finally evolved from a first-level slime to an ultimate slime, watching as the opponent's health bar finally started to drop to -1.

As a result, after the first layer of health bars was completed, there was a second layer, and there were still an unknown number of layers below the second layer.

This is simply a bottomless pit.

After realizing this, Zou Lian began to doubt life.

If all these years have been futile, then what is the point of everything he has done?

What Zhong Qiuhe said may be correct. His birth was originally a product of "retreating to the next best thing".

So it's normal.

Because you are not the protagonist, anger, humiliation, and ten years of persistence will not give you any power.

Zou Lian couldn't accept such a conclusion for a while, which was why the jumping incident shocked the whole school.

He himself couldn't tell whether it was the so-called "drowning man's last cry for help."

He just felt like life was too hard and he wanted to talk to someone before it was all over.

Although the person who came at that time happened to be the person he least wanted to see.

In the end, he sacrificed his life to save himself.

Looking back now, Zou Lian still feels as if he is from another world.

Can you imagine?

It was Su Chengyi who saved him.

This ending is sad but also a bit ridiculous.

Moreover, the other party said in a matter-of-fact tone:

“You don’t have to think about it, you don’t have to say thank you, it’s just natural.

No matter who it is, Zhang San, Li Si, a cat or a dog, I will save it subconsciously. "

How majestic and dignified.

It made him look like a dark, crawling, disgusting creature.

Zou Lian coughed and felt a little breathless.

He originally thought that these things had passed for so long and that he had already come out of it.

"Zou Lian, are you okay?"

The people next to him noticed something strange about him and asked worriedly.

"Ah, it's okay."

Zou Lian adjusted his mood and forced a smile.

Su Chengyi on the other side seemed to feel something and looked back.

He had put away the teasing smile just now and returned to the indifferent expression that Zou Lian was most familiar with.

General Zou Lian looked at him and looked away.

Right, let’s finish the debate first and then talk about it.

Is that what he meant?

"Okay, let's focus on the key points. Show me the draft of the first debate."

Zou Lian smiled warmly as usual.

“The first thing to do is to argue with words, to argue with eloquence and sophistry, to argue with emotion, and to argue with one hundred words is still based on workmanship.

When talking about balancing the world, talk about demons and fallacies and talk about relativity. Don't talk about winning or losing heroes.

Hello, fellow judges and fellow students.

Welcome to this debate. Our topic today is ‘Should we tell our children that there is no Santa Claus? ’”

Today's host does not seem to be a part-time student, but a serious staff member.

While waiting for the process, Su Chengyi turned his pen boredly and glanced at the audience.

The auditorium was full, and the name BGI vs. Peking University was enough to attract a lot of people. Chu Qingmian’s seat is easy to find, sitting in the third row on the left.

The reason why it is easy to find is simple.

She stood out so beautifully in the crowd, it was like colorful colors suddenly appeared in a black and white silent film.

Su Chengyi looked at her and she pursed her lips and made an "X" gesture.

It probably means telling myself not to change my pen.

Su Chengyi raised his eyebrows, but didn't care, and even turned more and more enthusiastically.

The transparent pen barrel was spinning and flying between his fingers, which was quite enjoyable to watch.

At this time, the process has also been introduced by Zhengfang.

"Four arguments for the right, Zou."

Zou Leng was introducing himself with a smile, but a clear and loud "pa" interrupted his words.

Such a sound is particularly harsh in a quiet situation.

Everyone's inquiring eyes stopped on Su Chengyi.

The pen in his hand flew out, bounced on the floor, and rolled far away.

"Feel sorry."

He raised his hand to signal without changing his expression.

Zou Leng's smile froze for a few seconds. He took several deep breaths before speaking again:

"Four arguments of the affirmative, Zou Lian, on behalf of Huaqing University, would like to send my greetings to everyone present."

Chu Qingmian in the audience covered her face with a notebook, laughing so hard that she almost burst into tears.

Su Cheng sighed inexplicably. He really didn't mean to do it. He overturned the car by accident.

In the final analysis, the pen that the organizer distributed was to be blamed, and it didn't turn out well.

"Now, I would like to invite the Beijing University team to introduce themselves."

The host obviously wanted to laugh a little, but she was very professional and tried her best to hold it back.

"Argument against the other side, Ye Ju."

Ye Ju also witnessed everything that just happened. The fact that she didn't laugh was a great victory that could be recorded in history.

"Two arguments against the other side."

Su Chengyi stood up.

"Four debates on the opposition side, Su Chengyi. I bring my four debate friends on the opposition side and greet everyone present."

There was a burst of neat applause in the stadium.

The debate officially begins.

The first link is the affirmative's opening argument.

In Huada's first argument, you can tell that he is a newcomer to some extent, but his tone is cadence and his explanations are relatively clear.

Thinking of Deng Yizhou's saying that "beautiful women have been recognized since ancient times", Su Chengyi was curious for a moment, so she leaned back slightly and took a peek.

Hmm. Like the typical engineering beauty in public perception.

But during this period of time, Su Chengyi has been among thousands of flowers.

For such a beautiful woman, I am already a little tired of aesthetic appreciation, so I just feel that there is no wave in my heart.

His peek was caught by Ye Ju on the other side, who squinted his eyes and gave a fake smile.

Su Chengyi quickly withdrew his gaze and listened intently.

To sum up, Zhengfang's argument is relatively simple.

The point of view is also very clear, that is, choosing not to tell children that there is no Santa Claus in the world seems to be out of meticulous protection of children, but in fact it is a miscalculation of the upper limit of children's understanding.

There is no point in using self-righteous means of protection and deliberately fabricating lies to seek falsehood, because the pursuit of truth and goodwill are innate needs of human beings.

I had already considered this point during the intensive discussion last night, so in the question session, the counter-participants responded to the somewhat wild question of "Will lies definitely cause harm?" and "What if parents themselves believe that there is a Santa Claus in the world?" He wanted to fight back.

Su Chengyi did not stand up to speak.

First, this was not a task assigned to him by his superiors; second, his teammates were so awesome that he had no chance to interrupt.

"If your point is that lies are bound to cause harm, then this is a boomerang that hits you."

Ye Ju smiled and finished these provocative words in the last two seconds.

Next it was the turn of the opposing side to speak.

“We believe that people have the right to be happy in reality and also have the right to be happy in imagination.

There is no reason for us to use our own real world to combat our children's fantasy world.

Ignoring children's feelings and only doing things according to their own ideas is an arrogant and wrong education method.

Our attitude towards this should be reflection, not support. "

Unexpectedly, Ye Ju also did very well in this position.

She seemed to be a salesperson trying to sell a product. She walked around people without even realizing it, and the next second she was about to pay out of her pocket.

When it was the affirmative's turn to question, the points given by the other party were:

“Knowing that Santa Claus is fake doesn’t affect the joy he gets from it.

For example, when you were a child, when you watched Journey to the West, you wouldn’t think that there really was a Monkey King in the world, but you would still get happiness from the world of Journey to the West.

Research and surveys by psychologists have shown that a considerable number of children have doubts about the existence of Santa Claus and say they can accept it. "

The affirmative's argument was neither humble nor arrogant, and his arguments were well-founded.

Su Chengyi casually wrote "throwing data" on the paper.

This is one of the "Characteristics of BGI debates" summarized by Deng Yizhou, that is, constantly throwing out various questionnaire data and famous quotes, making it appear very professional and convincing.

"Telling a child that Santa Claus does not exist is equivalent to telling him that Hogwarts does not exist, superheroes do not exist, Ultraman does not exist, and all these worlds he loves and is full of longing for do not exist."

Although Ye Ju was smiling, his tone was serious.

"We tentatively accept the so-called scientific research results that you have put forward based on your limited opinions.

However, although the children say they are ‘acceptable’, it does not mean that they will not feel frustrated and sad.

Our choice not only protects the children's imagination, but also avoids the negative emotions caused by the truth. I have to think that your argument just proves that we are the optimal solution to the problem. "

That's what I said.

Su Chengyi wanted to laugh a little when he heard this. Ye Ju was indeed born to debate.

Every time, what was originally a positive point of view became beneficial to the negative side when she mixed it up in this way.

Facing her pace, Zhengfang was obviously a little self-conscious, and the several counterattacks he gave were weak and ineffective.

Seeing that the situation was about to turn to one side, Zou Lian, who had been silent, finally took the microphone.

“First, the result of scientific argumentation is always to avoid lying unless necessary, even if it is a white lie in your claim.

It is difficult for children to distinguish between good intentions and bad intentions. The so-called distinction between good and evil is only determined from the perspective of adults and based on self-righteous judgment standards.

Just because they are children does not deprive them of their right to pursue authenticity.

Second, the original intention of Santa Claus is to reward obedient good children; the opposite image is Krampus, whose role is to punish naughty bad children.

So we believe that for such a product that is essentially for education and discipline, its significance of existence cannot be extended to the height of the fantasy world. "

Zou Lian's defensive counterattack was very good, and he even made a point that the opponent was not prepared for.

For a while, the opposing sides made two and three arguments, looking at each other in confusion, not knowing from what angle they should approach the question.

The scene froze for a long time.

Su Chengyi thought for a moment and stood up.

This is the first time he has spoken in this session, and he had not originally planned to speak during the free debate.

"As for the idea of ​​Krampus, we need to explain that it only appears in fairy tales passed down orally in some parts of Northern Europe.

When the church promotes the image of Santa Claus, it has been completely eliminated for the reasons mentioned by the affirmative debaters.

above. "

After pointing out the error in his point of view concisely and concisely, Su Chengyi sat down again.

But his words did reveal a flaw in Zou Lian's perfect counterattack, and the judges in the audience had to re-examine the score here.

Zou Lian's face looked a little bad, but he quickly regained his composure and stood up again.

The free debate time has come to an end, and the affirmative side has about one minute left, while the negative side has no time to counterattack because the second and third debates took too long.

This is a huge disadvantage for the opposing side.

Before the game, Deng Yizhou had always emphasized the need to control the duration because he was afraid of such a situation.

Because this also means that their last chance to counterattack is Su Chengyi's concluding speech.
