At this moment, time seemed to pass very slowly. Everything seemed to be in slow motion.
Everyone didn't even dare to blink. They all pricked up their ears to pay attention to the situation on the stage.
The teacher who was counting the votes very firmly and very clearly announced the final result, "Jade Lion!"
Boom …
The audience suddenly exclaimed, cheered, and regretted …
The voting process just now was too exciting. Even the teachers and students from other universities who were just spectators had unknowingly entered a tense situation. When the final result was announced, everyone's long-suppressed emotions were completely released at this moment.
Tri-Mountain University was silent for a moment, and then suddenly burst into loud cheers. The cheers were much louder than when they had won the gold medal. Everyone was releasing their nervous emotions to their heart's content, and everyone's faces were full of smiles.
With the previous embarrassment, Jiang Yue paid more attention this time. She hugged her best friend Lu You next to her. She was so excited that her face was flushed. She was happier than when she had won the bet.
Even Lu You, who had been very calm all this time, was very happy. A rare smile appeared on her face.
Xia Cheng and the others were also cheering happily. Only Peng Hui and You Jun had complicated expressions. They looked at Xia Ruofei with some jealousy, and their hearts were full of mixed feelings.
Xia Ruofei was also a little nervous just now, especially when the battle was at its most intense. He was already prepared to lose.
To be honest, if he lost a bet with a student, Xia Ruofei could still afford to lose. As for face and whatnot, Xia Ruofei didn't care that much.
However, this bet was different.
The stone in Chen Song's hand might just be a little strange to others, but for Xia Ruofei, it was very likely to be an excellent item to upgrade the space, other than the jade stone.
Xia Ruofei faintly felt that this stone might be more efficient than the jade stone in upgrading.
So, he couldn't afford to lose.
When the battle was at its most intense, Xia Ruofei even considered that if he lost the bet, he would get the black stone even if he had to use some unconventional means.
For Xia Ruofei, who was once an elite member of the Special Warfare Commando Team, this was a piece of cake.
Moreover, Chen Song was someone who deserved a beating. Even if Xia Ruofei used some tricks to steal his things, she would not feel any psychological burden.
Fortunately, the jade lion won in the end. Xia Ruofei did not need to waste any more time.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face.
Agricultural University was dead silent. It did not fit in with the noisy environment.
Meng Zhou, Chen Song, and the others all looked gloomy, as if they couldn't accept such a result.
Chen Song's expression was so gloomy that it was terrifying. He had lost to Tri-Mountain University in front of so many people. The Golden Award, which was originally tied, had now become inferior. It was all because of his bet.
In the end, Meng Zhou had to bear the responsibility for this matter. It was fine before, but now that he had lost, Meng Zhou would definitely not take the blame.
This matter wasn't big, but it wasn't small either. He had just been recommended for a postgraduate student, and the procedures had not been completed. If this matter affected his postgraduate admission, it would be a big loss.
Thinking of this, Chen Song couldn't help but have endless hatred for Xia Ruofei. Especially when he glanced over and saw Xia Ruofei's victorious smile, he couldn't help but gnash his teeth.
Vice President Li of Agricultural University also had an ugly expression. He looked at Meng Zhou and Chen Song as if he wanted to kill them.
In front of the teachers and students of other universities in the province, this was a big loss of face. It was all because of that stupid bet. After this, Meng Zhou and Chen Song would definitely suffer.
Chen Song felt his heart tremble. He struggled for a while, then gritted his teeth and said loudly, "President Chen, can we look at the votes?"
Unhappiness flashed across Chen Dongbai's face, and he said flatly, "Of course, this is your right."
Although he said so, the whole voting process was very transparent. In the end, he found a third party who had no interest in counting and counting the votes. Chen Song actually wanted to check the votes, which meant that he didn't trust the judges at all. Naturally, Chen Dongbai wouldn't be nice to Chen Song.
Chen Song looked at Meng Zhou. At this time, Meng Zhou wanted to stay away from Chen Song and didn't want to have anything to do with him, so he directly ignored Chen Song's gaze.
The other students of Agricultural University's Horticultural Club also avoided him. No one wanted to get involved in this mess.
Chen Song gritted his teeth. Since he had already said it, he couldn't take it back. Whether he checked the votes or not, he had already offended people. He simply went to the stage and began to check the votes.
There were only eleven votes in total. Chen Song quickly divided them into two piles. One was for Jade Lion, and the other was for Yang Su He.
There was no problem. It was 6 to 5. Jade Lion won with one vote.
Chen Song's face turned pale.
Chen Dongbai asked coldly, "Student, do you have any questions about the result?"
Chen Song shook his head with a gloomy look.
Vice President Li said coldly, "Do you want to make a fool of yourself by standing there? Why don't you come down? "
Chen Song's face turned pale. This time, he lost completely. Not only did he lose face, but even his future might be affected …
Just as he was about to leave the stage, a middle-aged teacher in the audience suddenly asked, "Professor Tian, may I ask, which side did you vote for?"
The audience burst into an uproar. Many familiar teachers recognized him. This middle-aged teacher was called Ren Shouyi. He came from Sanshan Software School. He had nothing to do with this matter. No one knew why he suddenly asked such a sensitive question.
Xia Ruofei raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Others didn't notice, but he just happened to see that Ren Shouyi had made eye contact with Vice President Li of Agricultural University before he asked the question.
Vice President Li's eyes flashed with joy. He then pretended to say, "Mr. Ren, the voting results are out. Besides, this is an anonymous vote. Don't ask such a question …"
Ren Shouyi said, "Vice President Li, Professor Tian, actually, this matter has nothing to do with me. Everyone is just curious. After all, the difference between the two sides is only one vote … If Professor Tian is not in a position to answer, then forget it …"
"Professor Tian, this …" Vice President Li deliberately said with a helpless expression.
Chen Dongbai's eyes flashed with anger. Ren Shouyi and Vice President Li were obviously echoing each other. How could such a small trick be hidden from him?
