Chapter 655 Lantern Riddles and Relatives
6Chapter 17 Lantern Riddles and Relatives

Human nature is like this. They always pay unexpected attention to things that they can't do or dare not do, but they want to get. Even if they know that these things have nothing to do with them, they He is also happy to join in the fun and pay close attention.

Lin Xiaoyao didn't know that he had become the focus of everyone's attention so quickly. At this moment, his brows were slightly small, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

Xiao Wan'er and the others were also thinking about the riddle of this lantern riddle carefully, and soon Xiao Wan'er, Zhao Ximeng and other smarter women came up with the answer. They felt that the riddle was not difficult. Why did Lin Xiaoyao have such a sad face? Could it be that he really didn't guess? come out?

At this time, under Xiao Wan'er's signal, the lantern riddles of this lotus lantern were also known to the gifted scholars and beauties around. This was a very good publicity opportunity, and she naturally would not miss it.

After knowing the mystery of the lotus lantern, those wits and beauties also pondered over it. After a short time, some wits and beauties with outstanding literary talents also guessed it out.

At the same time, they couldn't help feeling a little regretful. They should have guessed this lantern riddle long ago if they knew it was so simple, but now they have lost their chance. Except for Lin Xiaoyao, no one else has the chance to intervene.

"Xiaoyao, is this lantern riddle difficult to guess?"

Although Zhao Xuan'er is very smart, her mind is confused now, and she can't really settle down to guess any lantern riddles, so seeing Lin Xiaoyao frowning slightly, she couldn't help asking with some worry.

Lin Xiaoyao shook his head with a smile when he heard the words, and said, "It's not hard to guess, but I just don't understand why Miss Yu would come up with such a simple lantern riddle."

"Is it simple? I don't think so..." Yu Zhilan said with a faint smile.

Lin Xiaoyao shrugged helplessly. For Yu Zhilan, he really had nothing to do. An evildoer who is smarter than himself can count everything. If he played with her brain, it was purely looking for abuse.

Lin Xiaoyao glanced at the enigmatic face of the lotus lantern again, his eyes suddenly lit up, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he nodded unconsciously.

Yu Zhilan saw that Lin Xiaoyao seemed to understand something, and the smile on her face became even sweeter.

"Sister Zhilan's riddle is—the time of drawing is round, the time of writing is square, the time of winter is short, and the time of summer is long. Although there is no explanation of what the guess is, I think it should be an anagram."

Lin Xiaoyao analyzed logically.

Yu Zhilan didn't nod or shake her head, just like the other girls, she looked seriously at Lin Xiaoyao who was in high spirits.

Lin Xiaoyao didn't expect Yu Zhilan to pay attention to him either, only seeing him pause for a moment before continuing: "I guessed the answer to this crossword puzzle very quickly at first, but I was still a little unsure whether my thinking was correct or not. , After all, this is written by sister Zhilan herself. How could it be so simple, but the more I think about it, the more I doubt my initial judgment. I believe everyone should be the same as me, right? I can’t believe myself..."

When the girls heard this, they all nodded. They all knew how powerful Yu Zhilan was, so they also doubted whether their judgment was correct.

"That's right. In fact, what all of us think about Zhilan is what we expected. Her first riddle is not a test of whether we have guessed the riddle, but a test of whether our minds are firm. Test whether we can be confident and wait!”

Hearing Lin Xiaoyao's analysis, no matter whether it was Xiao Wan'er and his daughters, or many talented scholars and beauties, they all nodded with sudden understanding.

"So that's how it is. The strange woman is really a strange woman. This is clearly a matter of self-examination..."

"Let me just say, how could Mr. Yu come up with such a simple puzzle..."

All of a sudden, all kinds of echoes came and went, regardless of whether Lin Xiaoyao's idea was correct or not, at least everyone believed Lin Xiaoyao's statement.

"Am I right? Sister Zhilan!" Lin Xiaoyao looked at Yu Zhilan with a smile and asked.

Yu Zhilan didn't nod her head to admit it, but she didn't shake her head to deny it either. She just said without any strangeness: "Speaking so much, what is my answer?"

Everyone turned their attention to Lin Xiaoyao again.

Lin Xiaoyao smiled lightly, raised his forehead slightly, put his hands behind his back, his white clothes fluttered, and a few strands of black hair were blown by the breeze, which really had a touch of Confucianism like dust.

"There is a fish in the East China Sea. It has no head and no tail. If you remove the backbone, it is your mystery!"

Lin Xiaoyao didn't express his guess directly, but said another lantern riddle very deeply.

When Yu Zhilan heard Lin Xiaoyao's answer, she was a little confused at first, but in the next moment, she understood. She smiled at Lin Xiaoyao, lightly opened her red lips, and said: "As expected of the person I like, guess correct."

Everyone still didn't understand what was going on. Lin Xiaoyao obviously didn't tell the answer to the riddle. He just told another lantern riddle. How could he get it right?

What is the answer to the lantern riddle?

Including Xiao Wan'er and the daughters were also a little puzzled, but at this moment, Zhao Ximeng's eyes suddenly lit up, and finally understood.

I only heard her explaining to everyone: "Actually, Lin Lang has already guessed the answer to the riddle. He is guessing the riddle with riddles. After you think carefully about the answers to the two people's riddles, you will guess that the answers to the two riddles are both the same word—— day!"

After Zhao Ximeng's explanation, everyone suddenly realized, isn't it just like this!
Yu Zhilan's answer to the riddle is the day, and Lin Xiaoyao's answer to the riddle is also the day. This way of guessing riddles is really fresh and interesting.

At this time, many talented people and beauties also began to be a little curious about this handsome man. How could it be possible for a man who could say what he said just now, and who could tell this kind of lantern riddle without thinking? An unknown person?
It's just that although Lin Xiaoyao is well-known, he doesn't often show up in public, so not many people know his identity. Except for the young talents in the Ministry of Industry and the Holy Gate, ordinary gifted scholars and beautiful ladies have never seen him. Pass Lin Xiaoyao's.

"He's so handsome... who knows who he is?" said a nympho girl.

"He's so good-looking and charming, what do you mean by being handsome?" Another woman with little stars in her eyes also agreed.

"Handsome, just handsome! You don't even know Lin Xiaoyao's common words, is it because you haven't been out for a few years..."

The nymphomaniac looked at the woman next to her with some disdain, her expression was quite proud, as if she knew how proud Lin Xiaoyao's common words were.

"Lin Xiaoyao? Who is it?" The woman who was wearing a little star asked with some doubts.

"What? You don't even know Lin Xiaoyao...Oh my god, have you really not been out for a few years!?"

Before the nymphomaniac said anything, the other beauties around her said in surprise as if they had seen some rare animal...
