Chapter 144 Tacit Understanding Test
Boris looked over with cold eyes. Vivi asked in surprise, “Why are you on the ground?”
Eddy didn’t know how to reply.
Boris clicked his tongue lightly and sighed, “Mr. Quain certainly has an unconventional approach.”
Eddy was speechless.
What was wrong with this guy?
If he hadn’t kicked me, would I have sat on the ground?>
Eddy was furious, but when he met the pair of still and cold eyes, he suddenly understood something.
It must be because of Vivi!
This guy said one thing but means another!
He said he didn’t care about Eddy pursuing Vivi, but as soon as I stepped out of the elevator, couldn’t help but kick me as a warning!
was he okay?
However, although angry, Eddy didn’t dare to go against Boris.
Eddy was wealthy, but he and Boris were different.
he
Boris came from a wealthy family for three generations, which was called a prominent family.
Eddy, on the other hand, could only be considered a nouveau riche and was the most looked down upon among the wealthy.
If he really offended Boris, he might not even know how he died.
Eddy quickly got up from the ground, and coincidentally met the cameraman’s concerned gaze. He explained with a self-deprecating smile, “The elevator was too slippery.”
Just then, they arrived at the rooftop restaurant.
As soon as the door opened, Eddy walked out first, forgetting about adding Ziana on WhatsApp.
Boris sneered in disapproval, reluctantly satisfied with the result.
The bullet screen was now heatedly discussing and arguing.
[The excuse that the elevator is too slippery is too lame! Mr. Quain is so lowly!]
[I bet Mr. Lewis still has feelings for Vivi! They will definitely make up!]

[I also believe they will make up! One second he says he has nothing to do with Vivi, and the next second he kicks Mr. Quain. Isn’t that jealousy?]
[Mr. Lewis says one thing but means another! I ship them again! Even though they broke up, he still loves her!]
[Mr. Lewis was so handsome just now! He has enchanted me!]
[Am I the only one who thinks Mr. Lewis kicked Eddy because he wanted to add Ziana on WhatsApp?]
[I also think so! I have a bad feeling that Mr. Lewis might like Ziana!]
The restaurant on the top floor was crowded with couples who had come for the anniversary event. The atmosphere was lively and boisterous.
Ziana didn’t forget her main task and went straight to the activity table.
However, when asked about the specific activities, her lovely face couldn’t help but fall.
It was over.
She had no chance.
The second and third activities should be no problem for her and Boris.
The biggest problem was the first activity, which tested the tacit understanding between couples. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Did Ziana and Boris have any tacit understanding?
While Ziana knew Boris well, Boris’s understanding of her was close to nonexistent.
The most crucial thing was that this activity was a pass-or-fail system.
Only by passing the first level could they proceed to the second and third levels.
They had to pass all three levels to get the reward, which was a clue or the remaining fragment of
the mission.
“Why are you looking so down?” Boris asked, his brow furrowed.
As soon as he saw that Ziana was unhappy, he became inexplicably irritable.
Ziana was not someone who gave up easily, and since she had already come, she couldn’t give up without trying.
She decided to make a last-ditch effort and said to Boris, “I’m going to give you an impromptu training session.”
“What kind of training?”
Ziana rolled her eyes, “Didn’t you listen to the explanation of the activities? The first level is a test
of our ability to understand each other without words.”
“So?” Boris raised his eyelids slightly, “There is nothing to train.”
“No!” Ziana emphasized, “We must train. You have to remember everything I say next.”
She was afraid that Boris would refuse, so she stimulated him with what he had said before. “This is all to complete the mission as soon as possible. Doesn’t Mr. Lewis enjoy being with me and don’t want to end the task early?”
Boris raised his eyebrows but didn’t respond.
Ziana thought he agreed, and she told him everything she could think about herself, including questions and answers.
“My favorite fruit is cherries.”
“My favorite color is Edo purple.”
“My favorite game is Warcraft.”

As Ziana chattered on, Boris sneered inwardly.
Did he not understand her? Nonsense. He knew every inch of her inside and out.
Half an hour later.
Ziana and Boris took the stage, along with four other couples.
After some opening remarks from the host, the men and women were separated and seated at two tables, with each person given a tablet.
“The questions that appear on your tablet are our first challenge, a tacit understanding test! Please submit your answers within five minutes!”
“Timer starts now!”
Ziana glanced at Boris, who looked down at his tablet with a confident and commanding expression.
She wondered how much of what she had told him he actually remembered, but it was too late to
think about that now.
She lowered her head to answer the questions, but in the next second, her blood pressure shot up.
What were these problems?
The impromptu training just now was all useless?

And she didn’t predict even a single question!?
Ziana was completely stunned and instinctively looked over at Boris, who was already answering the questions.
She estimated that he was probably just randomly guessing.
The first question asked about the day they met, a day that was important for two people in love to
remember.
But for people who didn’t love each other, it was just an ordinary day or even a bad one.
Ziana was already men*ally prepared for failure, but surprisingly found herself feeling calm once
she gave up.
She quickly finished answering and submitted her answers.
As some of the questions involved privacy, the results were not displayed publicly but were instead announced by the host.
“Of the five couples in this group, we’re surprised to say that four have advanced to the next
round!”
Ziana raised an eyebrow in understanding.
Fine.
She and Boris were probably the only ones who didn’t advance.
She knew that when it came to the test of tacit understanding, they had no chance.
But not advancing wasn’t a big deal. They just wouldn’t receive the reward for completing the challenge, and they would have to spend a few more days together.
The worst-case scenario was enduring four more days.
Just hold on.
Ziana was consoling herself when she unexpectedly heard the host call her name.
“And the last couple, Boris and Ziana! Let’s congratulate them!”
Ziana was stunned, her bright face filled with disbelief.
Only by answering all the questions correctly in the first round could they proceed to the second round.
So Boris didn’t mess up?
Get Bonus
He answered all those questions correctly?
Unbelievable.
“What are you doing? Come up here quickly,” Boris urged impatiently. “The second round is about to begin. Don’t you want to win the prize?”
Ziana came back to her senses and quickly climbed onto his back, wrapping her arms around his
neck.
Boris’s cold eyes softened slightly.
The rules of the second round were to tie the cut fruit with a red string, hang it in the air, blindfold the man, have him carry the woman on his back, and have the woman direct him up and down. Then they had to eat the fruit with their mouths. The team that finished first would be the winner.
While the staff were still preparing the props, Boris suddenly whispered, “Ziana, what are you thinking about?”
Ziana shook her head, “Nothing.”
In fact, she had gone over those five questions again and again. Boris had a good memory and had answered them all correctly, which didn’t seem surprising.
“Hmm,” Boris spoke again, “Actually, you still love me. You just don’t admit it.”
Ziana was shocked, “Oh my g*d! What did I do to give you that impression? Did you even listen to what I said yesterday?”
“If you didn’t like me, how could you have answered the fourth question correctly?” Boris’s smile
curved upward. “It’s been so long, and you still remember it so clearly, but you still deny that you
love me?”
