Chapter 117: Forum
After recuperating, Lu Qi had become much more energetic. He even had the mood to joke now.
Lu Xiu continued to ask, “Then how did you know about that dress? I called to ask yesterday. The shop assistant said that it’s the only one in the country, and there won’t be any in stock for the entire year.”
“I just happened to see it in a magazine.”
This was indeed the truth.
That day, when he was waiting for someone at the cafe, there was a magazine on the table.
He casually flipped through it and saw the beautiful dress. It was very suitable for somebody, so he immediately ordered it.
A beautiful dress naturally had to be matched with someone beautiful.
Lu Qi was always mysterious when doing his things. Lu Xiu did not care about him. He was holding his phone and looking at something, smiling.
“What are you looking at?”
“I’m looking at the forum of Yuya First High School.”
Lu Xiu flipped his phone and Lu Qi saw four big words: Yuya First High School.
“Why are you looking at this?”
“Two days ago, the principal of Yuya First High School came to us. They are going to celebrate their 100th anniversary soon, so they hope that we can attend as guests. Then, they sent me a website for me to take a look at. But I found that there are not many serious things in the forum. It’s all gossip posts from the students.”
“Look at this, it’s so funny.”
Lu Xiu pointed at a post titled ‘Why do students eat instant noodles in class? Is it because the class is boring or the students are resisting?’
“I realized that the students of Yuya First High School are not only good at their studies, they are also very creative. The posts here are all pretty interesting.”
Lu Qi did not look at that post carefully. Instead, he was attracted by another post.
The title of the post was ‘She is actually the master of English!’. The title of this post was nothing new. What attracted Lu Qi was a video on the cover. Although the video was blurry, Lu Qi could tell that the person in the video was Cheng Ling.
He clicked open the video.
The video had been edited. First, there were the shouts of some students who were not convinced. Then, Cheng Ling opened her mouth to read the English text. When Lu Qi heard Cheng Ling’s English, he was a little surprised.
Lu Xiu, who was at the side, was attracted to watch it together.
“Hey, isn’t this Cheng Ling? Why is she also in the forum? She speaks English so well!”
Cheng Ling looked indifferent on the podium, but she was confident and at ease.
“The boy standing next to Cheng Ling looks a little familiar. Isn’t he Old Master Ding’s grandson? His English is also pretty good. Hey, look at the two of them standing on the podium. Don’t they look quite compatible?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiu realized that he had said something wrong.
He immediately shut up and continued drinking his coffee.
After watching the video, Lu Qi returned the phone to Lu Xiu, but he didn’t look so happy.
He didn’t know that Cheng Ling was so ostracized in school had he not watched the video.
He gulped down the last mouthful of coffee. The bitter taste circulated in his mouth, but it made his mind clearer.
Cheng Ling handed in her paper on time at five o’clock with other students.
The students were discussing the physics questions enthusiastically.
“This time, it must be Old Sun who came up with the questions again. They’re so difficult. There’s a question that I couldn’t even understand, so how could I answer?!”
“You’re not the only one. I didn’t even attempt the last page. Xiao Xiao, what about you?”
After listening to the discussion of the others, Cheng Xiao’s mood was pretty good.
She had thought about a few questions for a long time and she didn’t finish doing the entire paper. However, after listening to the discussions of the others in the class, she felt that her chance of winning was still very high.
No, she was fully confident that she could enter this physics competition.
Only she knew how much effort she had put into her studies. Sometimes, she would stay up late to study until two-three o’clock.
Facing the questions from her classmates, Cheng Xiao only smiled modestly.
“I’m also not sure about some of the questions. It’s better to wait for the results.”
Cheng Xiao had sharp eyes. She instantly saw Gu Nan in front of her.
Cheng Xiao called out to him.
“Gu Nan, how do you find the exam this time?”
Seeing that it was his classmate, Gu Nan stopped to chat with them.
“Overall the questions this time are relatively difficult. But if you break down the conditions one by one, you can still solve them. It’s just that it takes a longer time.”
The reason that Cheng Xiao stopped Gu Nan was not that she really wanted to ask him about the physics question.
She just wanted to take the opportunity to show her familiarity with Gu Nan, even though this was just Cheng Xiao’s one-sided imagination.
