After staying in Shanghai for one night, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi set off on their journey on the next day's flight.

The flight that Chen Zhou and his companions were on took off from Shanghai Dongpu International Airport at 12:35.

Due to the time difference, we will arrive at Boston Logan International Airport at 1:45 pm on the same day.

In other words, if Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi want to adjust to the jet lag.

It’s best not to sleep during the 14 hours and 10 minutes on the plane.

This is actually quite difficult for Chen Zhou.

Although he was very energetic the last time he went to MIT and didn't feel sleepy at all.

But that was because I was thinking hard about Cramer's conjecture.

Didn't he sleep the entire flight back from MIT?

So, Chen Zhou took out a piece of draft paper and wrote something on it.

He planned to play a game with Yang Yiyi to pass the time during the long journey.

Yang Yiyi looked at Chen Zhou curiously: "What are you writing?"

Chen Zhou stopped writing, looked up and said with a smile: "I'm making a crossword puzzle."

Yang Yiyi was surprised and asked, "You paid for it yourself?"

Chen Zhou nodded: "Yes, I have seen some of it before and I still remember it. Now I am bored, so I will play it with you two."

As he spoke, Chen Zhou took out another piece of draft paper and handed it to Yang Yiyi, saying to her, "Write one too. It can be a crossword puzzle or a Sudoku puzzle. If you can't do it, try a physics problem."

Yang Yiyi looked at Chen Zhou helplessly and reached out to take the draft paper.

When people take long-haul flights, don’t they all cuddle up and watch a movie?

Why does it become a competition question when it comes to me?

With a wry smile, Yang Yiyi, although very reluctant, still wrote a crossword puzzle table on the draft paper.

When she finished writing, she saw Chen Zhou waiting there with a draft paper in his hand.

Chen Zhou handed the crossword form he had written to Yang Yiyi, and then took the crossword form she had written from her hand.

After taking a look at the crossword puzzle Yang Yiyi had written, Chen Zhou praised her, "Not bad, Yiyi. It seems you also like playing crossword puzzles."

Yang Yiyi raised her eyebrows: "So, are we going to compete?"

Chen Zhou smiled and nodded: "Of course! Do you need me to give you a minute?"

Yang Yiyi looked at Chen Zhou's smug expression and said disdainfully: "Do I need you to give in? I'm afraid you'll lose too much and be embarrassed~"

Chen Zhou said, "How about this, let's not rush to answer the questions first, and then issue two more. We'll adopt a BO3 format, two out of three. Whoever loses must fulfill one of the other's wishes. How do you think?"

Yang Yiyi immediately said: "No problem, I'm just worried that you haven't fulfilled your wish yet?"

Chen Zhou smiled slightly and turned to get the draft paper.

You will find out soon who has not fulfilled his wishes!

He gave two to Yang Yiyi and kept two .

Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi started asking each other questions.

Speaking of which, Chen Zhou and Yang Yiyi, two science students, actually played a crossword puzzle on the plane. It's really...

But both of them were in the mood.

Before long, both of them had given each other a question.

According to the agreed BO3 format, the two began to solve the first crossword puzzle.

As Chen Zhou was writing, he found that the crossword puzzle Yang Yiyi had given him was quite difficult.

Although I haven't studied Chinese in the past two years of college, I rarely have time to play crossword puzzles.

But my foundation is still there and my level is not bad.

Chen Zhou immediately had a bad feeling as it was making things difficult for himself.

However, Chen Zhou also believed in his own ability, and the crossword puzzle he created was not simple.

The final result disappointed and surprised Chen Zhou.

Yang Yiyi was 3 words ahead of him.

He lost the first game.

Chen Zhou took the fill-in-the-blank form completed by Yang Yiyi and checked it carefully.

All correct!

That’s right!

Chen Zhou couldn't help but ask: "Yiyi, have you made this form before?"

But after asking, Chen Zhou felt a little embarrassed.

This form was 100% made by him. It is impossible for him to have done it...

Yang Yiyi saw the embarrassment on Chen Zhou's face and laughed softly: "Yes, I did it in my dream~"

After a pause, she did not forget to tease: "How is it, happy, do you want to give me another minute?"

Chen Zhou looked at Yang Yiyi. Although he wanted to refute, he had indeed lost.

If you want to refute it, you can only wait until you win the next two games.

But why does my right eyelid keep twitching?

Yang Yiyi had been paying attention to Chen Zhou's expression. She smiled slightly and said, "I'm happy. How about this? Let's play the next two games together. Whoever finishes first wins. How about that?"

Chen Zhou thought about it, how boring it would be if he was knocked out before the third round?

So he immediately said, “No problem!”

Seeing this, Yang Yiyi couldn't help but laugh.

The last two games start at the same time.

Chen Zhou grabbed a pen and began to solve the crossword puzzle on the draft paper.

Yang Yiyi glanced at Chen Zhou and thought about what kind of wish she wanted Chen Zhou to fulfill.

Then I picked up the pen and started to answer.

The result is self-evident, Chen Zhou suffered a crushing defeat.

When Yang Yiyi finished all of it, Chen Zhou had only completed one and a half.

A full half of the crossword puzzle table behind!

This was the first time that Chen Zhou lost a game without any temper.

He never imagined that Yang Yiyi was actually a hidden crossword expert.

He had been with her for such a long time and he didn't even know!

"Um, Yiyi..." Chen Zhou now regretted what he said at the beginning. He was too confident.

Seeing Chen Zhou's hesitation, Yang Yiyi snorted and said with a smile: "Didn't expect it? I have been playing crossword puzzles since I was a child, and I have participated in many competitions."

"I'll tell you in secret, I won gold medals in all those competitions~"

As she spoke, Yang Yiyi winked at Chen Zhou.

Chen Zhou's regret deepened...

"Why haven't I heard you mention it before?" Chen Zhou asked.

"You didn't ask me either." Yang Yiyi replied.

"Uh... okay..." Chen Zhou silently swallowed the bitter fruit of his own making.

"Hehe, let me think about my wish..." Yang Yiyi smiled happily.

After a pause, Yang Yiyi shouted again: "Happy."

Chen Zhou asked doubtfully: "Huh?"

Yang Yiyi narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Are you still playing the crossword puzzle?"

Chen Zhou immediately shook his head: "I don't want to play anymore..."

Yang Yiyi asked again: "What about Sudoku?"
