Chapter 208: Chapter 147 Lack of Love
The green light turned on.
The second round of Q&A had concluded.
"Very good, everyone is getting into the groove. Let’s quickly move on to the third round!"
With a grand gesture, Stanley waved his hand, and the spotlight once again focused on Will the Beastman.
"Please listen to the question."
"If your current lover turned into an extremely ugly being, with a fat head and big ears, weighing 300 pounds, and covered in grease, and she could never change back, would you still love her? Would you still marry her?"
Will the Beastman lightly tapped the table, falling into thought.
His questions were always about his girlfriend. Was the person writing the questions trying to analyze him through these answers? Or perhaps trying to expose his so-called "personality mask" with these questions?
Whether human, beastman, or other intelligent species, they were all, in essence, social animals. To survive better in society, everyone needed to learn to wear different masks in various situations.
As the saying goes, speak human words to humans and ghost words to ghosts.
Hypocrisy, lies, disguise... It was precisely because of these things that society could function. If everyone told the truth, if everyone exposed their true self without reservation, society would be in chaos.
Intelligent beings were very complex.
Some people appeared upright and noble but had unimaginable dirty thoughts deep within.
And a person who seemed rough and ugly might have a very pure heart.
The existence of lies and hypocrisy made it difficult to see through another person.
Even couples who had lived together for decades might have sides unknown to each other.
These questions were undoubtedly sharp swords that could easily sever the lies and tear off the masks of those hypocritical people, exposing their true selves.
But...
Will couldn’t help but scratch his head.
He was a beastman.
Beastmen were always straightforward, not so complicated, and didn’t know hypocrisy.
Even though he was a book-loving anomaly in his tribe, it was the same. He liked what he liked and disliked what he didn’t, without any hidden agendas.
Commonly known as being consistent inside and out.
These questions had no real power over him. He was not worried about being exposed for any hypocrisy because he had none.
After a brief pause, Will began: "If it was before I knew her, then I absolutely wouldn’t approach her or have that kind of idea.
But if it happened after we fell in love and she became like that due to some circumstances, I would still love her because I love her soul."
"Oh, oh, oh, oh! What a touching answer! But I wonder if you’re telling the truth?"
Stanley laughed, "Twenty years ago, a program group in Night City held a show, and naturally, the content was the question above.
The male guests at the time all swore that even if their girlfriends became like that, they would still love them. But when the altered girlfriends appeared before them, they all turned pale with fright and could hardly speak. Haha, not long after, they all broke up with their girlfriends."
Stanley sighed, "It’s easy to say but hard to do."
"So, did this green-skinned friend tell the truth?"
The room fell silent, and all the audience watched Will’s platform nervously, holding their breath. The atmosphere seemed to freeze.
The next second, the green light turned on.
"He didn’t lie. He didn’t lie!"
Stanley shouted like a soccer commentator witnessing his team score, "Unbelievable, there’s such a deeply affectionate man in this world! I honor you as the second Pure Love Warrior of this show! Give him a round of applause!"
The audience erupted with loud applause, and even many people wiped their tears.
"9 points, who understands? What a divine boyfriend!"
"That’s truly a perfect love!"
"He’s so amazing, I’m crying!"
Many people immediately took out their phones, starting to draft social media posts to record this beautiful love story.
After a while, the scene quieted down, and Stanley looked at Huo Yan Luo: "Hot Pepper, are you ready?"
"Please listen to the question."
"Have you ever been married?"
Huo Yan Luo raised an eyebrow: "I was, but I got divorced."
"So, a divorced beauty." Stanley showed a knowing smile, drawing cheers and whistles from the audience.
There were quite a few scoundrels.
Next up was Jiang Wuming.
"Have you ever had a strong impulse for self-destruction?"
"Yes." Jiang Wuming nodded. He had attempted suicide over a hundred times himself.
Next was Bai Lang.
"This guest mentioned before that he sometimes goes swimming, so in a way, this question relates to swimming."
Stanley asked: "Are you an environmentalist?"
"Yes."
Lastly, Stanley looked at Zhou Yuan, showing an awkward and helpless smile: "Did this guest bribe the person writing the questions?
Please list ten foods you like."
Zhou Yuan was completely speechless.
So, it was just a survey questionnaire?
What on earth was Yi doing?
"Pork, lamb, chicken, duck, beef, rice, steamed buns, cabbage, green vegetables, spinach." Zhou Yuan casually listed ten foods.
Passed smoothly.
Why were my questions always different from everyone else’s?
Zhou Yuan pondered this while stroking his chin.
Next, Stanley asked Will his fourth question:
"Have you ever despised certain aspects of your girlfriend?"
