Boss Lu: A reborn life is destined to be without regrets!-Chapter 325 - 244. There’s no such thing as a universally loved face.
Chapter 325: 244. There’s no such thing as a universally loved face.
Pearls and gems in front, though Lu Jincheng’s summary was also brilliant, I’ll avoid bloating the word count and not elaborate here.
"Next is the rebuttal segment. Could the debaters from both sides please stand up? A total of five minutes is allocated."
The grand finals introduced an interesting format: the rebuttal segment.
Rebuttal meant the debaters from both teams would PK each other, and if one side’s statements gained the confirmatory inclination of the three judges (more than two votes),
then the person would have to switch out, and it would turn to the next debater from the same team to speak.
Finance University from Jiang City sent out Tian Shiyao, while Nanhu University unanimously chose Zhong Ruixi.
The two female debaters stood face to face, separated by the air between them.
Tian Shiyao’s mouth curved up, sizing up Zhong Ruixi while she got straight to the point and threw out a question.
"Opposing debater, if I had a face that everybody loves just like yours, do you think I should cover it up while dating?"
As soon as she said this, the cameraperson immediately understood and gave her a close-up shot. Most of the gaze abruptly settled on Zhong Ruixi’s cheeks.
Indeed, pretty good-looking.
The familiar beauty mark was zoomed in and focused on the center of the screen. Zhou Sinin, a representative of the audience, scrutinized her seriously and silently affirmed her approval.
Zhong Ruixi shook her head with a smile, "Today we’re discussing whether or not to use this ability."
"May I ask the opposing debater, doesn’t everyone have a different understanding of love? You think your love is about bringing breakfast to your partner every day, while I reckon my love means preventing him from contacting other women. Standing on this premise, using supernatural abilities is unfair."
Tian Shiyao, "This has nothing to do with the segment on love. Whether I love him or not is irrelevant to my understanding of love. My understanding of love decides how I will interact in maintaining it."
"Could the opposing debater please answer my question? With a face that could overthrow kingdoms and cities, should I cover it up while dating?"
Zhong Ruixi laughed helplessly, "Opposing debater, it’s your choice whether to cover it or not. That’s your freedom."
"But the issue is, now that each of us has a different understanding of love, you keep telling us that because I love him, I won’t control him. But there are many who control their partners in the name of love. Even though the partner has the right to choose, if I start controlling and my partner feels discomfort with being controlled, they can leave, they can get away from me, stop loving me. But now, using this kind of supernatural ability, they don’t have a choice. Is this fair to them?"
Tian Shiyao, "In the segment on love, can we control someone? We can’t, right?"
"If I have a face that everybody loves, I can use it to fall in love based on looks. Then, if I’m also given a superpower by fate, why can’t I use it?"
Zhong Ruixi, "It’s simple, opposing debater, because you’re attacking the premise of the debate." freewёbnoνel.com
"The superpower in question means that once it’s used, the other party is bound to fall in love with you."
"If you have a face that makes everyone who sees it fall irrevocably in love with you, then that would fall under the scope of today’s premise."
"But the fact is, there is no such person in the world, not even Senior Sister Mou Keyan from our university, who despite having a million followers online, still has people who feel indifferent towards her."
The surgical analogy made the audience below instantly erupt into laughter.
The geography of Nanhu Three Schools was close, areas where shopping and gossip often intersected and merged.
Fairy Miao naturally had a well-known influence among these college students.
The camera, as if it had a mind of its own, quickly found Mou Keyan in the audience center trying to cover her cheeks.
Even though Senior Mou was accustomed to being surrounded by cameras, she blushed, trying to avoid the gaze of the entire audience after being teased by the debater and immediately displayed on the big screen.
This was unbearable!
Tian Shiyao pondered for a few seconds: "Opposing debater, today’s topic is a hypothetical question. We assume if someone has a face that is 100% loved by everyone they should cover it up. According to your reasoning, Senior Mou should wear a transparent veil, and the more attractive the person, the thicker it should be. So we see if you suppress someone from using their face to obtain love, it leads to an incomplete personality and suppresses their full character. Likewise, today you’re telling us superpowers are wrong, this would create the same problem, wouldn’t it be a kind of denigration of oneself?"
Zhong Ruixi gestured dismissively, "Opposing debater, your analogy is inappropriate because there really isn’t a face here that makes all of you love me."
"But if there was a concoction, a potion, that made someone fall head over heels in love with me after drinking it, then I think that potion shouldn’t be used."
"You’re just avoiding the issue. I’ll still ask you, if love truly has nothing to do with free will, then why do we still have the pursuit of love?"
"Why do we treat the other person well? To increase the chances of them loving me. You’re saying love has nothing to do with free will?"
Tian Shiyao was taken aback, "Yes, that’s why sometimes the pursuit can succeed or fail. Why? It depends whether your method of pursuit happens to meet the other person’s needs. We call this fate. What is this fate? Ask him, and he won’t be able to explain clearly either."
"Look, the superpower is a part of me as the owner, just like my face, my talents. If you think these can be used, why can’t the superpower be used? Why can’t I, who was given these by fate, use them?"
