Time flew by and before long, it was time for Huo Yao to take part in the City's English Oral Competition.
The staff of the Education TV station would be recording the entire competition. They would also make a special episode and broadcast it on the education channel.
The venue for the competition was a rented exhibition hall on the second floor of the City Sports Center. The TV station had specially invited a group of audience members to sit under the stage for the sake of the atmosphere.
Huo Yao had taken part in the competition purely for the 100,000 yuan prize money. She had been wearing earphones the entire time since she left school.
A female classmate who had come with Huo Yao noticed that she was wearing earphones, so she sneaked up to her and asked her. "Are you listening to an English tape?"
Huo Yao looked at the female classmate. Just as she was about to reply, the female classmate said, "Can I listen to it?"
Huo Yao paused for a moment before she took off one of her earphones and generously handed it to the female classmate.
The female classmate was stunned when she heard the pop song coming from the earphones. Her eyes widened as she stared at Huo Yao in a daze for a long time.
The competition was about to start, and everyone was memorizing the script they had prepared. However, not only was Huo Yao empty-handed, but she was also listening to a pop song... Fine. Although it was her idol's song, was it really appropriate to listen to it at a time like this?!
"What do you think? Is the song good? I think their captain's voice is great. " Huo Yao took out her phone and showed the cover of the song. She pointed at the person on the cover and said, "Their captain looks good too."
The female classmate was from another class. She looked at Huo Yao, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
She had always heard that Huo Yao from the Experimental Class was rather aloof. However, she now felt that she was not aloof at all. At the very least, she was no different from a regular chick when it came to promoting her idol.
She was very down to earth!
The female classmate was led astray by Huo Yao. She did not even look at the English script and started to compliment Huo Yao.
When the English teacher came back from drawing lots and heard what the two of them were talking about, he almost fainted on the spot. He quickly separated the two of them and brainwashed them for a few minutes before he distributed the number cards to everyone.
There were almost 50 contestants, and the order of appearance was decided by the teachers from each school.
Huo Yao was number 21, which was right in the middle.
It was Huo Yao's turn an hour later.
As soon as she stood on the podium, the spotlights above her head shone down and refracted on her face, making her look fairer and more delicate. The calm and steady aura around her seemed to be natural.
Huo Yao looked at the audience below the podium. Suddenly, her eyes landed on two furtive heads in the corner at the back. Her lips twitched violently.
Withdrawing her gaze, she calmly nodded and greeted the teacher. After a while, fluent English flowed out of her mouth.
Huo Yao was reciting a famous poem. Unlike the other students, she did not bring a manuscript with her.
Facing the audience and the teacher who was giving marks, he didn't have any stage fright at all. His expression was confident, and his pronunciation was perfect. It could be said that he was the one who performed the best out of all the students in the competition.
Huo Yao was, and the class, Huo Yao 'was the first.
Huo Yao's three-minute speech was over. The first thing she did when she returned backstage was to take out her phone.
