"That's why I said this person isn't simple," said the Secretary-General with a distant gaze.
The Chairman was silent for a few seconds before he looked at the test paper. He paid special attention to the last big question, which was the Physics question set by Old Zhang.
After a while, the chairman's lips curled into a smile of admiration. He leaned back in his chair and sighed. "It's really not simple. Look at how ingenious this equation is. There isn't a single extra step, and this solution is very fresh. It's even simpler than the solution that Old Zhang passed to us."
Although the Secretary-General was not an expert in physics, when he heard the Chairman's words, he understood that the person who had answered this question had to have a strong thinking ability. He calmed himself down and said, "Mr. Zhang has been looking for a student with outstanding talent in physics. Do you think we should recommend this person who scored full marks in the No.1 Middle School?"
The chairman took off his glasses and rubbed the corners of his eyes. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "There's no need for that for now. It's just a small preliminary test, so we can't tell much. After all, this full marks examinee is a liberal arts student. Who knows, maybe she just happened to solve Old Zhang's question?"
The Secretary-General thought it made sense. "Alright then. Let's talk about it after she passes the city level preliminary test."
"Okay," said the Chairman softly before he placed the test paper on the table.
The Secretary-General glanced at the test paper and said, "Should we take a picture of the solution to this Physics question and send it to Old Zhang? I think he will … "
The chairman raised his hand and interrupted, "Old Zhang has already given the Education Association a lot of face by taking the time to come up with a question for this competition. This kind of question is not even worth mentioning to him. It's just another way to solve it. There's really no need to make a fuss about it and bring it to him."
The Secretary-General touched the tip of his nose. "Alright, I understand. I'll take this test paper back and put it on file."
After that, he picked up the test paper.
"Go ahead."
The Secretary-General had just taken two steps when the Chairman seemed to remember someone. He looked at the Secretary-General's back and asked, "Oh yes, there's a student named Lu Xia from No.1 Middle School. How did she do?"
The Secretary-General paused. He had an impression of Lu Xia because his daughter was a fan of hers.
Turning around, he replied, "138 points, ranked sixth, not bad." After a pause, the secretary added, "This student seems to be a campus star, and he's studying science. He's a talent to have such results."
The chairman tapped his fingertips on the table a few times. "Okay, I got it. You can go back to work."
The Secretary-General glanced at the Chairman. Although he didn't know why the Chairman suddenly asked about Lu Xia, he didn't ask and left.

Saturday.
After breakfast, Song Ning dragged Huo Yao to the supermarket near the estate. She bought a bunch of groceries and a huge bag of snacks.
After paying the bill, Song Ning turned around and saw that her daughter's hands were not empty. She looked as if she had nothing left to live for. She suddenly burst into laughter.
As she reached out to help carry the bag, she said, "Girls shouldn't be too indoors. When it's time to go out for a walk, you should come out. If you always stay at home and read, you'll become a bookworm."
Huo Yao expressionlessly rejected her mother's offer of help. She hit the nail on the head and said, "You just don't have anyone to help you carry the bags."
Song Ning coughed guiltily. Seeing that Huo Yao was able to carry the two bags effortlessly, she felt that it was impossible for her to have a sweet and delicate daughter.
