‘When she suddenly heard Meng Ran speak, Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows with interest. She glanced at the young lady beside her indifferently and was surprised that Meng Ran would take the initiative to participate in the competition of a subject that she was not good at.
Seeing that a second student was actively signing up, Li Xiao could not be bothered about the fact that Meng Ran’s Mathematics was not her forte. He waved his hand happily and said excitedly, “That’s great. With Meng Ran joining us, Class Eight will have two capable students. I wonder if there are other
students who are willing to form a team with these two. It’s good that we can help each other!”
Under Li Xiao’s hard work, not long later, many students from Class Eight started to sign up to join the team.
“Teacher, I want to give it a try!”
“Twant to sign up too. Even if I can’t get the gold medal, I can go and broaden my horizons.”
“Since everyone is signing up, I’d sign up too!”!!
More and more students started to go up to the podium to sign their names. Li Xiao was so happy that his smile really widely.
After a while, he stared at the name list that had been signed and confirmed that Mo Zhu’s name was still not there. Li Xiao did not give up and looked at Mo Zhu for the last time. He thought about it and said, “Mo Zhu, everyone has signed up. Are you really not going to consider it? For the students of
Jingyang High School, this is a rare opportunity!”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she was about to look up and reject him again, but she did not expect to be interrupted by a student in the front row of the classroom before she could speak. “Teacher, when I was signing just now, I saw that the notice had written that the player who gets the first place in the gold
medal team will receive a reward of 5 million yuan. I don’t know if this is true.”
‘When Li Xiao heard this, he retracted his gaze and nodded. He stopped persuading Mo Zhu and took the lead to reply to the student in the front row. “That’s right, there is indeed a five million yuan reward.”
It was not that Li Xiao deliberately did not mention the five million yuan reward when he announced the competition rules and rewards previously, but with Jingyang High School’s ability, it was extremely difficult to defeat the teams in Beijing and get these bonuses. Therefore, he automatically ignored this
point when he was informing his students.
However, Mo Zhu took these five million yuan to heart. She was short of money now. A while ago, she had just finished attending the Gao family’s auction and spent a large sum of money. These few days, she still had to think of a way to help the Gao family make a comeback. The expenses of these were too
high. If she did not work hard to earn money, she really could not afford it.
A glint flashed across Mo Zhu’s eyes. She raised her eyebrows and took the initiative to ask Li Xiao, “The reward is five million? When will the money be transferred if you win the competition?”
‘When Li Xiao heard this, he saw that Mo Zhu seemed to be very interested and he replied excitedly, “This Mathematics competition is organized by Country H and it is a national competition. The bonuses are distributed in the form of checks on the spot!”
‘When Mo Zhu heard this, she immediately nodded and agreed, ‘Alright, Ill sign up then.”
Just as she finished speaking, she casually took a pen from Meng Ran’s table. She walked to the podium and signed her name.
After Mo Zhu signed her name, Li Xiao was relieved. He took the notice and returned to the office happily.
After Li Xiao’s figure disappeared at the entrance of Class Eight, Meng Ran turned around and looked at Mo Zhu curiously. She propped her chin on her hand in confusion and asked, “Sister Mo, aren’t you not interested in such competitions? Why have you decided to participate now?”
‘When Mo Zhu heard the little girl’s question, she played with her phone as if nothing had happened and asked, “What about you? Your science subjects are so weak, why did you take the initiative to sign up for the Mathematics competition?”
After being asked by Mo Zhu, Meng Ran immediately forgot about her question and replied seriously, “Sister Mo, a few days ago, I carefully analyzed my comprehensive results. With my current results, I’m afraid I won’t be able to get into Beijing University. So, I want to participate in the competition to try
my luck..”
“You want to go to Beijing University so badly?” Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows calmly.
“Yes, yes!” When Meng Ran heard Mo Zhu mention Beijing University, her eyes immediately turned into stars. “My dream since I was young was to get into Beijing University. It’s rare for me to have such an opportunity. I will definitely study hard!”
After a pause, Meng Ran added seriously, “Maybe it’s really as everyone says. If happened to meet a top student and would be able to tag along on his glory?”
When Mo Zhu heard Meng Ran’s yearning tone, she turned her head with interest and looked at the young lady’s happy eyes. She smiled lightly and replied, “Yes, you’ve always been very lucky..”
