Jiang Xiaowei then asked, "I'm sorry, but I'm not interested in your family background, wealth, or your parents' jobs at all. Marriage is a matter between two people. I only care about you as a person. I chose to go on a blind date with you this time because your resume said that your IQ is as high as 115, right?"
"That's right." The man in glasses nodded, feeling a sense of superiority.
"Very good, then I'll give you three questions. Try them out."
"Ah … you're going to give me questions …" Huo Mien mumbled quietly after hearing Jiang Xiaowei's words.
"If I don't give him questions, how would I know if his high IQ is his own or someone else's? There are so many scammers nowadays …"
After hearing Jiang Xiaowei's words, Huo Mien felt like they made a lot of sense …
Therefore, she silently ate her ice cream and waited to see what questions Jiang Xiaowei was going to give to her blind date.
She thought about it and thought that it would be fun …
"There's an incense stick … the thickness is uneven. In ancient times, people used incense sticks to calculate time. For example, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn is one hour. However, when the thickness of the incense is uneven, it can be fast or slow. Burning halfway doesn't mean that it's actually half an hour. Tell me, how do you use this uneven incense stick to calculate an accurate half an hour?"
After Jiang Xiaowei gave him her questions, the man in glasses was a little dumbfounded …
He thought that Jiang Xiaowei was going to give him a brain teaser, like how there are seven monkeys on the tree and one monkey on the ground. How many monkeys are there in total?
However, after Jiang Xiaowei gave him her questions, he racked his brains but still couldn't come up with an answer …
"Bro, it's been one minute. Do you know how to do it or not?" Jiang Xiaowei looked at her watch impatiently.
"Give me some more time, I need to think." The man in glasses was a little anxious.
In fact, he really wanted to take out his phone and search on Baidu, but he was helpless as the two women across from him looked at him.
Then, Jiang Xiaowei looked at Huo Mien and said, "Tell him, I can't take it anymore."
Huo Mian stopped eating her ice cream and said calmly, "It's actually quite simple. You just have to light up the two ends of the incense stick. The place where the flames meet might not be the center of the incense stick, but the time it takes for them to meet is exactly half an incense stick's time, which is half an hour."
"Did you hear that?" Jiang Xiaowei looked at the man in glasses.
The man nodded, "I'm enlightened …"
"Then, listen to the next question …"
"Another test?" The man in glasses was a little nervous.
"Isn't your IQ 115? The one sitting next to me is 130, so in order to test your IQ, I still have to ask. "
"Um …" The man in glasses looked at Huo Mien guiltily.
Jiang Xiaowei continued, "This one's quite simple. I'll give you ten seconds to answer. Listen carefully, there are four pairs of socks of different colors on my bedside. Every time I wear them, I randomly pick up a few and find a pair. How many socks do I have to pick up to make sure there's at least one pair of socks?"
"Let me think, um … it should be four," the man in glasses answered.
Huo Mien looked at him sympathetically and interrupted, "She has four socks of different colors. What if she's unlucky and picks up four socks of different colors?"
"Um … yeah, I didn't think of that." The man in glasses seemed to have just realized.
Huo Mien added sympathetically, "So, you have to pick up at least five socks to make sure there's a pair."
Jiang Xiaowei looked at the man in glasses coldly, "Do you really have an IQ of 115? Did something go wrong? "
"I can't … my school gave it to me. I also answered a lot of questions." The man in glasses looked wronged.
"Okay, I'll give you one last chance … If you can't answer this question, you should leave. Don't waste my time … I can't stand men with low IQs."
Then, Jiang Xiaowei asked, "A robber caught a farmer. He said to the farmer, 'Do you think I'll kill you? If you guessed right, I'll let you go. If you guessed wrong, I'll kill you. 'The farmer thought for a moment and answered,' You'll kill me. 'So, the robber let him go. The farmer saved his life. How did the farmer guess right? "
After Jiang Xiaowei asked this question, the man in glasses was once again dumbfounded …
These questions were so weird … he had never heard of them before.
