Chapter 362: Stolen the Limelight
Faced with Sun Dasheng’s praise, Jian Ai only said humbly, “Thank you for your affirmation, Teacher.”
The students also felt admiration for Jian Ai. It was nothing new for her to be good at her studies. After all, Jian Ai always ranked in the top five in every examination that she even got first in the monthly examination last time.
However, this Mathematical Olympiad was not like ordinary examinations. Those who had taken part in it knew how abnormal the questions were. Jian Ai almost scored full marks and ranked first in the school.
They had no choice but to acknowledge her.
Before Jian Yiyi could enjoy her classmates’ praise, Jian Ai stole the limelight. Compared to Jian Ai’s results, her fourth place was nothing.
It was Jian Ai again. Why was she always inferior to her?!
Jian Yiyi gritted her teeth and snorted at Jian Ai in her heart. Unexpectedly, she turned around and looked into Si Yuehan’s cold gaze.
Jian Yiyi subconsciously shrunk her neck. His eyes were cold, as if they could see through her soul.
Jian Yiyi had no intention of appreciating such a handsome face. Every day, when she sits beside Si Yuehan, she would feel half of her body go numb.
Until now, Jian Yiyi had never seen her new deskmate smile, let alone talk to her.
In the cafeteria at noon, Lin Yi looked dejected. His chopsticks stabbed countless holes in the rice, but he didn’t eat at all.
If not for this competition, he wouldn’t have known that the difference between him and Jian Ai was so big!
“Alright, it’s not like you’re the only one who failed. There are over a hundred people in the entire school, but there are only five spots. Isn’t it normal that you wouldn’t get chosen?” Yan Tian looked up at Lin Yi and counseled him with an expression that said, ‘Take it easy.’
Gao Yang also failed, but he was much calmer than Lin Yi.
Just as Yan Tian had said, it was too normal to fail in such a competition.
The two of them secretly asked Sun Dasheng about their results. Gao Yang scored sixty-seven points and didn’t pass.
Lin Yi was the worst. He only scored fifty-two points.
Although this result was not good compared to Jian Ai and Jian Yiyi, among the over a hundred people who had signed up, it was not considered bad.
Sun Dasheng said that the questions this time were very difficult. Few people scored above eighty points, and the lowest score was only eight points.
However, it was because of Sun Dasheng’s words that Lin Yi could see the difference between him and Jian Ai more clearly in terms of studies. Although he was also in the top ten in the cohort for the monthly examination, he could not even touch Jian Ai’s heel when it came to real skills.
Lin Yi couldn’t recover from the setback, and Jian Yiyi was equally unconvinced.
“Yiyi, Jian Ai beat you again this time. You have to work hard during the city competition. Otherwise, she’ll steal all the limelight!”
Li Yunmei didn’t mind blowing things up and fanned the flames at the side.
Xi Jie and Li Linlin nodded in agreement. “That’s right, Yiyi. You have to beat her.”
Jian Yiyi wanted to stomp on Jian Ai in her heart, but she had to maintain her white lotus-like persona on the surface. Hearing this, she pursed her lips and smiled. “It’s not that exaggerated. I’ll do my best. We’re all classmates, so there’s no need to compare.”
In the end, it was because she knew herself. She didn’t have full confidence in winning against Jian Ai, so she didn’t dare to boast.
Li Yunmei’s gaze landed on Jian Ai and the rest, who were sitting by the window not far away. She subconsciously snorted. “Look at her character. She’s just a poor girl from South City. She can only work hard in her studies. Tsk!”
