138: Making a dried hemp stalk from a bull shouldn't be too difficult, right?
"Testing character has no standard answer."
Bai Yuntian looked at Li Yao and Chen Yang.
"You just need to follow your heart and express yourselves freely."
Chen Yang and Li Yao both nodded.
Bai Yuntian announced the test content.
"You encounter a beggar on the street."
"He stole your wallet. You caught him. How would you handle it?"
"Please, within half an hour,"
"write your answer on paper."
"No overtime, no asking for help, complete it alone."
Everyone present fell silent.
They questioned themselves.
If it were me, how would I handle it?
To be honest,
testing character, this question is the simplest.
You just need to write down your inner thoughts.
But it's also the hardest to answer.
Everyone has their own choices and judgments.
What is the best way to do it?
It's hard to conclude.
Li Yao was clever.
He thought very clearly.
Since Bai Yuntian was testing character,
he definitely wanted to see if his future son-in-law was inherently kind.
Only a kind person would treat Bai Yuyan well.
As long as he grasped the word "kindness," he could produce the best answer sheet.
He picked up his pen.
Swish, swish, swish... In less than twenty minutes, he successfully submitted his paper.
Bai Yuntian took it and looked, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
"Not bad!"
"Commendable kindness!"
According to Li Yao's plan,
he caught the beggar, but instead of beating, punishing, or calling the police,
he gave him clothes, food, money, and a house.
He ensured the beggar had enough to eat and wear, so he wouldn't have to beg everywhere.
From then on, the beggar would live a happy, relaxed life.
It was extremely good!
Although it was a bit overly good, exaggeratedly good,
however,
overall, it still highlighted his kindness.
It was comparable to a Bodhisattva's heart.
Bai Yuyan also read Li Yao's answer sheet.
It almost made her sick.
For a person with a heart like a snake and scorpion to utter such "inner thoughts"
wasn't it the greatest irony?
However,
she had to admit,
a person who is utterly shameless is invincible!
With his answer sheet, it was almost impossible for Chen Yang to win.
Zhang Li was overjoyed.
"Li Yao, this child, is truly kind-hearted!"
"A beggar stole something, and he still treated him so kindly."
"If it were me, I'd definitely call the police and have him arrested."
Bai Yuzhu couldn't help but give Li Yao a thumbs up.
"Brother-in-law, you're amazing!"
"We're definitely winning this round!"
Bai Yulong nervously looked at Chen Yang.
He really hoped Chen Yang could win, but he didn't dare say anything.
It seemed
that in this round, the boyfriend his sister found was going to lose?
Chen Yang pondered for a moment.
He also began to write.
However,
he wrote quite a lot, and submitted his paper much later than Li Yao.
He almost finished his answer sheet just as time ran out.
He respectfully handed it to Bai Yuntian.
Bai Yuntian took a quick look.
It was surprisingly extensive, filling three sheets of paper.
He glanced at Chen Yang.
Then lowered his head and read carefully.
After just a few glances, his brows furrowed.
Bai Yuyan's heart also tightened.
Fortunately,
Bai Yuntian didn't fly into a rage, throw or tear the papers.
Instead, he patiently continued reading.
Subsequently,
his brows gradually relaxed.
His sitting posture, however, changed from casual to serious and solemn.
He didn't show a hint of a smile until he finished reading all three pages.
Instead, he began to close his eyes and ponder.
Everyone nervously watched Bai Yuntian,
awaiting his evaluation.
Bai Yuyan really wanted to go over, pick up the papers, and take a look.
Seeing her dad's serious expression,
she didn't dare to act rashly.
The next second,
Bai Yuntian suddenly opened his eyes.
He slapped the table.
"Excellent, truly excellent!"
"Even I hadn't thought that true kindness is never charity."
"As the saying goes, 'Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime!'"
"This is the best solution!"
He scanned everyone present.
"You all take a look!"
"I believe justice resides in people's hearts; after reading these, the answer will be self-evident."
Li Yao was the fastest.
He was the first to grab the papers.
He quickly skimmed through them and couldn't help but exclaim,
"It's testing character."
"Shouldn't it be, the kinder, the more correct?"
"You can answer like this?"
Zhang Li was also very confused.
She took the papers and read them.
She was also dumbfounded!
"It's all nonsense!"
"Encountering a stinky beggar, who has the time to meddle in so much idle business?"
Bai Yuzhu was also very puzzled after reading it.
Who would waste so many brain cells on a beggar?
After Bai Yuyan and Bai Yulong read it,
their faces showed joy.
That's right.
This was the best answer!
Only by inspiring the beggar's true motivation,
to be self-reliant and self-sufficient,
was the best act of kindness!
It turned out that
in the answer sheet,
Chen Yang would investigate the beggar.
Why was he begging? Why was he stealing?
Was it his first offense?
If he was a habitual offender,
then he must be reported to the police and severely punished.
Using the strictness of the law to educate and guide him to abandon evil and embrace good.
If it was his first offense,
he could be warned and educated, and offered a job opportunity to be self-reliant.
If he was forced by life or encountered an insurmountable obstacle,
and urgently needed help,
such as a family member being sick, then money could be donated, full assistance provided, and the difficulties resolved.
At the same time,
he would be trained in skills and provided with job opportunities.
Even an interest-free loan would be provided to him to buy a house, live, and settle his family.
He would slowly repay the money after earning it.
It was such a slightly cumbersome plan
that won Bai Yuntian's affirmation.
"Second round, testing character."
"Chen Yang wins!"
Bai Yuntian made the final decision.
Zhang Li, Bai Yuzhu, and Li Yao, although unwilling, were powerless to refute.
Bai Yuyan and Bai Yulong, on the other hand, smiled happily.
Li Yao was very displeased.
"Please, Uncle Bai, give the third question."
He had to win the last round.
Otherwise,
he wouldn't be able to win the "beauty."
Bai Yuyan's physique was key for him to break through to Advanced War General and reach the Bright Martial Artist level.
No matter what, he had to win.
Bai Yuntian also didn't want to provoke Li Yao any further.
He immediately announced the third test.
"In this round, my question is about comparing strength."
"So-called strength is combat power."
"How can a man protect his woman without a good physique?"
"I have prepared a small arena for you."
"Whoever falls out of the arena or loses the ability to resist is considered to have lost."
Chen Yang was a little surprised.
He hadn't expected the third test to be a martial arts competition.
If there hadn't been an intelligence reminder,
he would definitely be full of confidence in a fight.
Now, however,
the outcome was really hard to say.
The opponent was an Advanced War General, and had reached his peak.
He could break through to the Bright Martial Artist level at any time.
His own physique was only that of a High-Ranked Soldier King.
Relying on top-tier martial arts, he could barely contend with an Advanced War General.
His real combat power was definitely a notch below Li Yao's.
The result was worrying!
Chen Yang was worried.
Bai Yuyan, however, was full of confidence.
"Chen Yang, that Li Yao is as thin as a stick."
"He looks like his body has been hollowed out by wine and women."
"You're so strong, you can definitely beat him, right?"
Bai Yuyan said,
and also secretly glanced at Chen Yang's pectorals and eight-pack abs.
He was as strong as an ox, plowing fields with a roar.
Wouldn't it be easy to take down a pervert?
