Yi Lianfan looked at his deskmate with a complicated expression and did not speak for a long time.
His deskmate suddenly thought of a possibility. His eyes widened and he asked him. "How many points did Huo Yao from the Experimental Class score?"
"300," said Yi Lianfan unhurriedly.
"... Damn it. 300? Isn't that full marks?" His deskmate was so shocked that his jaw nearly fell off the table.
Although he knew that Huo Yao had come first in the International Quiz Contest, it was not a Math Contest. Moreover, Huo Yao was not as famous as Cheng Jie from Flying Eagle Middle School.
It was only natural that he did not recall it.
"What kind of freak is Huo Yao from the Experimental Class? She is even better than Cheng Jie!" exclaimed his deskmate.
No wonder the Class President had said that Cheng Jie might not come first in the National Quiz Contest. Who could possibly surpass her if she scored full marks?
It was still possible for them to tie for first place.
Yi Lianfan's deskmate's phone vibrated. "My friend wrote me a reply. Let me see if he said anything about Cheng Jie's score..."
Yi Lianfan's eyes landed on Huo Yao's phone and he looked slightly nervous. He was even more nervous than when he was checking his own score.
"... Class President, my friend said that Cheng Jie scored 295 points and ranked first in their city." His deskmate raised his head and showed his phone to Yi Lianfan.
Yi Lianfan loosened his grip on the table, but he quickly pressed his forehead with a chuckle.
Why was he so nervous? No matter how good Cheng Jie from Flying Eagle Middle School was, could he compare to Huo Yao from No.1 Middle School?
Moreover, it was not that easy to score full marks!
"I heard from our Math teacher that the Math Contest's ranking is used to determine the hosting rights for the following year. Whichever middle school ranks first in the National Quiz Contest will get the right to host it."
His deskmate paused before he suddenly became excited. "No.1 Middle School has missed out on the hosting rights for three years in a row. Now that Huo Yao came first this year, we can finally hold our heads high."
Although Yi Lianfan was not as excited as his deskmate, he also felt proud of Huo Yao.
Huo Yao brought glory to the school, so it was worth celebrating.
"Oh yes. Flying Eagle Middle School is trying to find out about our results. Should we tell them about Huo Yao's results?" asked Yi Lianfan after checking his WeChat.
Yi Lianfan tilted his head sideways. "It's not like I can't be in the spotlight."
His deskmate raised his eyebrows. "That's true. It's time for them to witness the strength of our school."
Huo Yao's deskmate sent Huo Yao's score to his friend.
The content of the message was filled with arrogance.
Meanwhile, the conversation between Yi Lianfan and his deskmate reached Lu Xia's ears. She was pretending to read but was secretly listening to them. Lu Xia clenched her fists so tightly that she almost broke the pages of her book.
In her previous life, she had participated in the Mathematics League in her senior year. She had a vague impression of the questions in the Mathematics League, so she signed up for it.
For the past few days, she had been burying her head in all sorts of similar league questions to solve. She wanted to work hard to prove herself in the league.
Hence, she was delighted when she found out that she had scored 263 marks and was ranked 15th in the entire city. She thought she could finally hold her head high. But in the end...
Huo Yao scored full marks again and came first. She even brought glory to the school and won the right to host the next Math League.
Lu Xia smiled gently. She found it ironic that she had been burying her head in studying all this time.
