Chapter 134: My Name is Shen Xu Because of Kidney Deficiency

As soon as the news spread, a crowd of spectators poured into Shen Mingxuan’s soft live stream room. They arrived just in time to see Shen Mingxuan, pale and exhausted, lying on the ground.

Since it was a timed competition, even if you failed multiple times, you could still get up and continue.

Shen Mingxuan made several attempts to get up and continue, but due to his weak condition, he could not rise. Instead, he repeatedly fell to the ground, getting sand in his mouth.

His face grew even worse as he spat out sand but couldn’t get rid of it all. After finally getting up, he did only a few push-ups before collapsing again and continuing to eat sand.

[Haha, Shen Xu really lives up to the name!]

[Shen Xu should just change his name to Shen Eats Sand, haha.]

[Got my seat ready, waiting for Shen Xu to change his Weibo name.]

Five minutes is a long time for weighted push-ups, and gradually, Qin Ling also fell, followed by Cheng Lin and Fu Li.

Only Jiang Mi managed to maintain perfect push-up form throughout the five minutes. What was even more impressive was that she didn’t seem out of breath at all, maintaining a steady, stable performance.

With a bell ringing, the five-minute mark was up.

Jiang Mi did 140 push-ups, winning first place with a flawless performance.

Second place went to Fu Li with 100 push-ups. Although he was fast for the first three minutes, he fell once and slowed down thereafter.

Third place was shared by Cheng Lin and Qin Ling, two good friends who competed and supported each other, ultimately doing the same number of push-ups: 80 each.

Last place went to Shen Mingxuan, who managed to do only 65 push-ups.

[Hmm… This is hard to evaluate, haha.]

[We knew he was weak, but not this weak.]

[He didn’t even do half of what Mimi did and still had the audacity to claim he would win. Talk about overestimating oneself.]

[Mimi is truly amazing. The average number of push-ups for women is 12-22, but Mimi averaged 28 per minute, and she was carrying extra weight!]

[This physical stamina is incredible. Is she really not a retired special forces soldier?]

Shen Mingxuan, hearing the results from the director, clenched his fists tightly. He felt as if his face had been slapped and wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide in.

The cocky Shen Mingxuan before the competition now shrank his shoulders, trying to minimize his presence.

But Jiang Mi remembered.

“I accidentally did 140 push-ups and got first place. By the way, I still have a bet with you, Shen Xu. How many push-ups did you do?”

Shen Mingxuan maintained a stern face and remained silent.

Qin Ling cheerfully raised his hand, “65 push-ups. Mimi, he didn’t even do half of what you did. It’s unbelievable he had the nerve to bet against you. Truly out of touch with reality!”

Shen Mingxuan was infuriated, “Qin Ling, you only did 80 push-ups, not more than Mimi. What are you so proud of?”

Qin Ling’s face darkened, “Yes, I admit I’m not as good, but I have the self-awareness not to provoke Mimi. Do you?”

Shen Mingxuan was speechless. He had indeed provoked first, but he couldn’t admit defeat now. He looked around and suddenly glared at Bai Ruoruo, trying to shift the blame.

“Ruoruo, it was you who suddenly used your foot to scratch my chest during the competition, causing me to lose.”

This was true.

Previously, Jiang Mi’s toes scratching Gu Chuan’s Adam’s apple had been a hot topic, with many netizens finding it amusing.

She had hoped to ride on that popularity, but Shen Mingxuan was so useless that he fell just from a scratch.

Even without Bai Ruoruo’s interference, Shen Mingxuan wouldn’t have done many more push-ups.

Bai Ruoruo silently cursed Shen Mingxuan for his incompetence and kidney deficiency, but she knew that in this dating show, Shen Mingxuan was her only catch. She had to keep him no matter what.

Moreover, shifting the blame might also gain some sympathy online.

Bai Ruoruo took a deep breath and said, “Sorry, Mingxuan, sob sob, it’s all my fault you lost the competition. Mimi, if you want to punish someone, punish me.”

Shen Mingxuan was pleased with Bai Ruoruo’s willingness to take the blame and eagerly said, “Good, you take my punishment.”

Shen Mingxuan’s wishful thinking was soon dashed as Jiang Mi would not agree.

“Yesterday you blamed Yang Yang for the fall into the sea. Today you blame Bai Ruoruo for your poor push-ups,” Jiang Mi said with raised eyebrows and a mocking tone. “Shen Mingxuan, what kind of man are you?”

Shen Mingxuan’s face darkened, and he argued stubbornly, “Jiang Mi, you’re being too much!”

“Trying to avoid admitting defeat, are you in the right?” Jiang Mi sneered. “I’ve seen shamelessness, but not to this extent.”

Shen Mingxuan’s face turned a shade of liver, and he was about to continue his stubbornness, determined not to admit defeat!

But the next moment, Gu Chuan’s cold voice rang out, “A bet is a bet.”

The simple four words carried an intimidating pressure, making Shen Mingxuan’s face go white instantly.

At this point, Jiang Mi seemed to have thought of something amusing.

“Considering we’re colleagues, let’s do this. I’ll give you two options.”

Shen Mingxuan’s eyes lit up with hope.

He knew Jiang Mi once loved him so much, she surely wouldn’t want to humiliate him.

But the next second, Jiang Mi’s voice turned devilish.

“Either change your Weibo name to Shen Xu.”

“Or post a Weibo declaring to the entire internet that your name is Shen Xu because of kidney deficiency.”
