The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise

Chapter 389: Unsolvable Questions

“You guys think these Chemistry questions are over the top?” Wu Zhiheng said as he threw the chalk away. “So the teachers from No.1 High School only teach what is available in high-school textbooks?”

Wu Zhiheng threw a glance at his friends, and the two young men, who got his signal, hastily chimed in, “Yeah. These Chemistry questions are the easiest questions at our school. They are a piece of cake for elite students like us.”

“That’s right. If you guys can’t answer these questions, I guess there’s no point in us continuing the exchange meeting.”

“…”

Everyone fell silent.

Easiest questions? Did they call these questions easy?

“We’re high school students, so we naturally have to learn from high-school textbooks.”

“Does Hang Yuan teach their students a university-level syllabus?”

“Who knows, but it seems to me that Zhou Zihuai and Lu Yubai don’t know how to answer those questions either.”

The atmosphere was tense, and everyone had an ugly expression on their face.

Originally, they were just going to compare notes and exchange views on studying so that all of them could learn from each other and be even more prepared to handle the upcoming college entrance examination. However, Hang Yuan wanted to test them out before continuing the exchange meeting, and the students from No.1 High School felt humiliated.

Wu Zhiyou had a tight frown on her face as well.

Wu Zhiheng might be able to fool the students from No.1 High School, but as Hang Yuan’s student, she knew that her brother was lying.

These questions had not been taken from their school at all. Even she did not know how to answer those Chemistry questions, let alone Zhou Zihuai and Lu Yubai.

Wu Zhiyou then realized something. It was impossible for Wu Zhiheng to get the questions from the question bank, for the teachers of No.1 High School would be able to notice it right away. Thus, she was certain that these Chemistry questions had been given to him by Ouyang Ya.

The more Wu Zhiyou thought about it, the darker her face became. That said, she did not say anything. She just stayed silent.

Under the stage, several top students from No.1 High School were racking their brains to answer the questions on the blackboard.

Well, even though they seemed as if they were answering the questions, in truth, they were just scribbling on their paper.

Wu Zhiheng had said these questions were the easiest questions at their school, but they could not find any evidence to prove him wrong.

Seeing that it was almost 9:30 a.m, Wu Zhiheng lost his patience. He lifted his legs from the chair and said, “Since none of you can answer the questions, I don’t think we should waste our time anymore. We have something else to do, but feel free to reach out to us whenever you guys find the answers to these three questions.”

That said, Wu Zhiheng did not think that they could answer the questions.

This was because when he’d gotten the questions from Ouyang Ya, he had not understood the questions either. If he did not have the answers to the questions on the blackboard, he would have been as clueless as the students from No.1 High School.

He scanned the arena, and then something on the bulletin board caught his attention.

Fu Zhi’s photo was there. She was the best student at No.1 High School, and Director Liu had commented that she was a good student with an all-around development of morality, intelligence, and physique.

Wu Zhiheng and Wu Zhihou had gotten the same title at their school before as well, but…

Wu Zhiheng let out a disdainful sneer and tore Fu Zhi’s photo from the bulletin board.

“I’ve been going to Myanmar with my father for stone gambling since I was 12, and I’ve never missed a shot before. I have a vast amount of knowledge when it comes to stone gambling and I earned my first pot of gold when I was 14. I excel at every subject at school, so I have every right to receive the title of the best student. As for Fu Zhi…”

He sneered mirthlessly but did not finish his sentence.

“Stop blowing your own horn here!”

“My goddess received the title from the government! If you don’t like it, then tell our government. Put my goddess’s photo down!”

“Your first pot of gold? So? That doesn’t prove anything at all!”

“Do you know how long I’ve been holding myself back so I do not put my fist through your d*mn face?” The student clenched his fist and rushed up to the stage, only to be held down by Director Liu, whose figure was at least twice the size of the student.

“Calm down! Calm down!”

Since he was confident that the No.1 High School students would not dare do anything because Director Liu was here, Wu Zhiheng clutched Fu Zhi’s photo tightly in his hand and said the thing that Ouyang Ya had told him. “If she wants to prove that she’s a good student, then ask her to stop being a coward and come out to confront us. She has to prove that she’s as excellent as us, or she won’t deserve the title!”

After he finished talking, he waved his hand at his friends. “A stupid person solves their problems with fists, while a smart person uses their brain. You guys are all talk, but none of you are able to do anything. In any case, answer the questions and then we’ll talk.”

Zhou Zihuai wanted to go up to stop him, but Lu Yubai grabbed his wrist. “Wait until he’s out of the school first.”

Wu Zhiheng, who had come swaggering in, left arrogantly.

Director Liu was so infuriated that he smacked the head of the reckless student who had wanted to beat Wu Zhiheng just now.

The student pouted his mouth and said, “Why are you hitting me? I didn’t beat anyone!”

‘That means you would have hit him if I hadn’t stopped you? Argh, I’m so mad!’

Director Liu then said, “Why? I’m your teacher. Do I need a reason to hit you? Go back to your class now!”

The student was speechless.

The commotion soon dissipated in the arena.

Director Liu took a few photos of the questions and went to look for their Chemistry teachers.

At the same time, no students left the arena. Instead, more and more students were swarming in.

Some of them might have had a feud with Fu Zhi in the past or did not like her because they did not know her well, but Fu Zhi had donated books to No.1 High School and she was also the one who had fought so their country would get the opportunity to hold the international Physics competition. Thus, she had every right to get the best student title. Who did Wu Zhiheng think he was to tear her photo from the bulletin board?

Not only that, but he’d also humiliated all of them. Did he really think they could not answer those questions?

Most of the students in the arena were third-year students. They were studying the questions, and some of them even took photos of them and posted them on their school forum to ask for help.

In any case, they had to protect Fu Zhi at all costs.

That said, nobody was able to answer the questions.

Lu Yumo was summoned to the arena as well.

He was a little bit late, and just as he took a pencil out to write down a question, a student beside him tapped his shoulder and said, “You’re Fu Zhi’s brother, right? Erm, not that I’m looking down on you, but you better stop trying. There’s no way you could understand the questions!”

Lu Yumo was stunned.

‘Who do you think you are to look down on me? Look at yourself. I can see smoke coming out of your head, and your hair is falling.’

“D*mn it. What the hell is Yellow Sodium Benzoate Pills? I couldn’t find their composition on the internet!”

“He didn’t even give us a hint, yet he expects us to answer this kind of question? Are you guys sure they are not messing with us?”

“But they said these are the easiest questions in their school paper, and we can’t prove that they are lying! My sister is a resident doctor, and she doesn’t know what the hell this is either.”

Everyone was complaining about the questions save for one person.

Lu Yumo’s eyes suddenly glowed up as he thought of something. He opened his Taobao shop and scanned the descriptions of a few medicines in his shop.

Yellow Sodium Benzoate Pills, 30,000 yuan per unit, main ingredients…

He opened his mouth and said, “Erm, guys… I think I know how to answer these questions.”

Meanwhile, outside of No.1 High School…

Wu Zhiyou’s face had been dark from the moment Wu Zhiheng had taken Fu Zhi’s photo down from the bulletin board.

There were no other people outside the school now, and after she got in the car, she snatched the photo from Wu Zhiheng’s hand.

Her nails were long, and she unwittingly left a few scratch marks on the back of Wu Zhiheng’s hand.

“What is wrong with you, Wu Zhiyou?”

“What is wrong with me? That should be my question! You have disgraced both Hang Yuan and our family! How could you tell them with such a straight face that those three Chemistry questions were taken from our school’s test paper?”

Wu Zhiyou had never felt so embarrassed before, and her eyes were red around the rims.

Lying to Fu Zhi and humiliating her friends was something she would never do, for what she wanted was a square and fair match with Fu Zhi. However, the person who had done it was her brother, and she just could not bring herself to expose her brother in front of everyone.

Wu Zhiheng’s jaw was tightly set. He was about to shout at Wu Zhiyou, but the moment he saw her red eyes, his anger dissipated and he said, “Why are you crying? I’m not bullying you. Those questions are not exceptionally difficult. The only tough part about the questions is the composition of the medicine, but that’s it.”

Wu Zhiyou asked, “Did you get those questions from Ouyang Ya?”

Wu Zhiheng nodded.

“I knew it! That b*tch. How can she ask you to do something like this? It’s like playing good cop, bad cop. In this case, you’re the bad cop, while she’s the good cop. In any case, I don’t care if you want to come or not, but I will certainly come on Monday and have a fair match with them!”

After Wu Zhiyou finished speaking, she got out of the car.

The other boys wanted to follow her as well, but Wu Zhiyou pushed them away with her parasol. “Leave me alone, you bunch of filthy people!”

Looking through the window at Wu Zhiyou, who was still holding a parasol despite the nice weather, Wu Zhiheng let out a sigh.

At the same time, Ouyang Ya called him on his phone.

“Did you show them the questions? Did Fu Zhi answer them?”

“Not yet. Don’t worry, Fu Zhi is not good at Chemistry, and there are no answers on the internet. They didn’t even know what kind of medicine was needed, so there’s no way they could answer those questions.”

He paused for a while before adding, “Did something happen? Otherwise, why couldn’t you follow us to No.1 High School today?”

“I’m looking for the owner of a Taobao shop. I bought the ointment for you from the shop. They have quite a lot of medicine that could be useful to the Ouyang Family.”

Ouyang Ya did not tell Wu Zhiheng everything.

There were a few reasons she had come to Yu City this time. Apart from participating in the exchange meeting, the elders of the Ouyang Family wanted her to discuss a business deal with the owner of “Definitely Not A Dishonest Shop”. They wished to get a discount so that they could buy medicine from the shop in bulk in the future. Besides, they also wanted to recruit the owner of the shop into the Ouyang Family.
