"Xiaoyou, what do you think?" Bai Ling asked her.
Lu Xiaoyou said, "I think if all the contestants end up with zero points and miss the finals, it would indeed be very pitiful."
Lin Xiaotu's right eyelid twitched. Was Lu Xiaoyou pleading on her behalf?
No, that's not right! This woman would never speak up for her.
Lu Xiaoyou's lips curled up into a generous and gentle smile, causing Lin Xiaotu's eyelids to twitch even more violently.
"I think we could select one contestant from Lin Xiaotu's team to advance to the finals. That way, we achieve both punishment and leniency."
Bai Ling laughed and said, "Hmm, that's a good suggestion."
Lu Xiaoyou was pushing Lin Xiaotu into the fire pit—choosing only one person to advance to the finals was even crueler than having no one advance!
How would Lin Xiaotu choose? No matter who she picked, she'd offend all the other contestants.
