“He must’ve cheated! How can someone who can’t even get into university be better at math problems than Han Xiao and the rest? I’m dying of laughter. This show is so fake!”
“Tsk! The haters are criticizing over nothing again. Su Shengjing merely solved a few middle-school math problems, and they’re accusing him of cheating?”
“The haters are so annoying! Get lost!”
Su Shengjing carried Su Jiu to the second room. This time, the questions tested him on his knowledge of literature. He again quickly found the safe based on clues.
The password still consisted of four digits. He had to complete the second half of the four poems to crack the code.
Su Jiu glanced at the four poems. They were very simple to her, but she did not know whether her father knew the poems or not. If he didn’t, she would think of a way to remind him.
In short, if Su Shengjing wanted to attract more fans, he had to complete this mission and do a good job!
Su Jiu knew that the entertainment industry had all sorts of people and celebrities of varying standards. Someone with a high IQ and EQ would certainly prove to be more popular than the rest.
In terms of EQ, most celebrities usually did not fare too poorly. After all, the companies they were contracted to would train them accordingly. However, one’s intelligence boiled down to oneself.
Su Jiu had seen some celebrities expose how unintelligent they were on variety shows. Some did not even know basic addition or subtraction, and thus, they incurred the public’s ridicule. On the other hand, some celebrities were extremely smart and had extensive knowledge of the world. These were the ones who managed to attract more fans.
Hence, celebrities who had a reputation for being intelligent could become very popular.
This is why Daddy must perform well today!
Su Shengjing did not disappoint her. He quickly completed the poems and entered the passcode.
Click!
The safe was unlocked again!
The audience widened their eyes. “What the f*ck! Su Shengjing, you just proved yourself!”
“What kind of a poem is this? I’ve never seen this poem before. ‘Had we but the world enough, and time…’ Has it ever appeared in our textbooks?”
“These poems aren’t in the textbooks, but Su Shengjing knows them? Amazing!”
“So what if he has low academic qualifications? He knows everything!”
Su Jiu was not stingy with her praises. “Daddy, you’re awesome!”
Su Shengjing was pleased. After grabbing the key, he carried her and grinned. “Since I want you to stay in the best room, I need to do a good job. Let’s go to the next room!”
“Okay!”
Li Kaiwen was still stuck in the first room. Since he could not solve those questions, he had no choice but to give up. Meanwhile, Han Xiao, Chen Ke, and Xiao Yang had already entered the second room. Although they had managed to find the safe, they were stumped by the poems.
Just when they were racking their brains over it, they suddenly heard Yang Fangping’s voice through the loudspeaker. “Little Jiu’s father has already entered the third round. The other fathers have to work hard!”
The four fathers were speechless.

The third round was the most difficult. After finding the safe, Su Shengjing picked up the card placed on it. Su Jiu also peered at it.
The card stated, “The password of this safe is a single letter. Isn’t it simple? However, if you enter the answer incorrectly three times, it will be permanently locked!”
After combing through the room, Su Shengjing found another card. On it was a riddle, “I run smoother than any rhyme; I love to fall but can’t climb.”
When the audience saw this question, they exclaimed, “This is so difficult!”
“What the heck is this?”
“Yang Fangping, you bastard! If you don’t want Little Jiu to stay in the best room, just say it! Why are you going to such lengths?”
After thinking hard for a while, Su Shengjing suddenly thought of something and entered the letter “R.”
However, this answer was wrong.
