A group of teachers crowded at the front of the list to see how their students ranked, and all the students participating in the competition stood by the school bus waiting.

"Do you think we can make it into the top three this time?"

"I think it's uncertain. The first place has already been taken, and the second place will definitely be No. 1 Middle School."

"There's still a third place, so have more confidence in yourself."

"What's the point of getting third place? No one in the city will pay attention to the third place."

Yao Huan stood beside Yu Qing and overheard some students discussing: "They might be disappointed."

"I can't help it." Since they were both coming to her this time, she changed the subject: "Which school have you decided on?"

"Not yet..." Yao Huan thought of some rumors, "But I heard that Beijing University is pretty good. What about you?"

"Great minds think alike." Peking University is also the university that Yu Qing plans to attend.

Amidst all the students' suspicions about the rankings, the teachers gathered in a circle suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

They were still puzzled when the teachers over there came over. Their eyes lingered on No. 1 Middle School for a while, showing some surprise.

Teacher Yu from No. 2 Middle School walked in front with an expressionless face, while Chu Fulei followed behind with a smile as big as a chrysanthemum, his face almost crooked with laughter.

He didn't care about other people's feelings at all and raised his voice: "That's great, the first and second place are both from our No. 1 Middle School!!!"

Other students:!!!

What? ! ! !

If the top two are both from No. 1 Middle School, then where does Yan Jilan rank?

Teacher Yu glanced at him coldly, noticing that Yan Jilan's face wasn't looking good, "Get in the car first. We're convinced of our defeat in this competition."

Yan Jilan's already ugly expression became even more rigid.

She would say that, but that only means the top two results are beyond his reach.

Yan Jilan said in a muffled voice: "I understand."

Before getting on the bus, he glanced at No. 1 Middle School. In the center of the group of eighteen students was two very beautiful girls, who didn't seem surprised at all.

It seemed as if this result had been expected.

Yan Jilan exhaled, put on the hood of his sweatshirt, and covered his face tightly.

He only ranked third this time and successfully advanced to the provincial competition. If he continues at this pace, he may not be able to participate in the national competition.

…

…

Overnight, all the high schools in Hecheng knew the rankings of the competition.

Two dark horses emerged from the lottery! Two!!

Yan Jilan, who was sure to win the first place, was unexpectedly pushed to third place by two girls!

Whenever this happens, someone will ask, what's wrong with girls, how awesome are boys, they still lose to girls, this time No. 1 Middle School can be said to have brought honor to its female students.

Because of Hecheng's records in previous years, the ratio of male and female students participating in the competition is equal, but female students always lose to male students. Perhaps boys have a certain talent for mathematics.

But Yu Qing and Yao Huan proved with their strength that girls are not inferior to them in mathematics.

At this time, the first place winner of the competition had arrived at the office and was standing in front of Zheng Huijun.

Zheng Huijun thought of a lot of words to praise her, but before she could say anything, she heard the first place winner say that she wanted to take a half-month leave.

"Are you sure you want to take so long a leave?" In fact, Zheng Huijun hoped that she would not take leave. After all, mathematics is a subject that cannot be learned by rote memorization.

Any mistake will drag down a series of steps.

Yu Qing nodded: "I have something important to deal with."

"It's so important..." The next competition is only half a month away. "Then remember to read and memorize everything, and return to school as soon as you're done."

Yu Qingqian smiled lightly and said politely, "I know, teacher, I can't delay anything but my studies."

"Teacher believes you are a good student!" Zheng Huijun handed her the signed leave application.

Yu Qing took the leave application and went out, and met Fang Xi in the corridor. She was holding the railing with both hands and looking downstairs. She turned around and looked over here when she heard the door open.

The girl's face was filled with smiles as she slowly walked over. "Yu, I haven't had time to thank you for what happened last time. This is all the savings I can take out. It's not much."

Yu Qing took the red envelope she handed over, and a smile appeared on his cold brows: "That's enough."

She doesn't have a fixed fee for her services, and her choice depends on the financial situation of the other party.

"By the way, have you contacted Chen Xianmeng privately?" Fang Xi thought of the day when he confronted Chen Xianmeng. The other party's vicious eyes were so wrong.

She seemed a little mentally unstable, but also seemed to have no problems.

I don’t know if it was due to some kind of stimulation, but the whole person felt crazy and lifeless.

Yu Qing: "Do you think there's something wrong with her?"

Fang Xi nodded and shook her head: "I can't explain it, I just feel like she's weird, like... someone who should be dead, but is still alive?"

She thought about it for a long time but still couldn't understand. Chen Xianmeng gave people the feeling of a dead person, and died of old age and exhaustion, but she was obviously still alive and well. This was too strange.

Yu Qing was a little surprised. He didn't answer her question, but instead asked her, "Are you interested in joining Xuanmen?"

Fang Xi was originally an orphan, and now the only relative who adopted her has passed away.

She has an innocent nature. We can tell from the last time she thought her life was in danger but she chose not to harm others that she is a very kind person.

But she is just an ordinary person, but she can see the most abnormal thing about Chen Xianmeng, which shows that she is talented and there is no shortage of hardworking people in Xuanmen.

On the contrary, what is most lacking is people with talent.

"Xuanmen?" She had never thought about this question before. "I don't know."

Fang Xi looked at Yu Qing in surprise. Why did she ask her that?

After all, this was her first time dealing with such a matter, so Yu Qing was willing to give her a chance: "You can think about it. Come to me when you've figured it out."

Fang Xi: “…”

Is that what she meant?

…

…

At 5:40 in the afternoon, Yu Qing returned home from school. For the first time today, Yu Huilian did not go out.

She cooked several of her signature dishes and sat at the dining table waiting for Yu Qing to come home.

After dinner, Yu Qing helped to clean up the dishes. While washing dishes in the kitchen, Yu Huilian slowly talked about what had happened in the past few days.

It turns out that the last explosion incident has been investigated clearly, and it was a human, not a ghost, who was behind it.

The people hiding in the dark are the same ones who caused Tang Heyan to fall into a coma.

Yu Huilian put the cleaned bowl away and said, "Those people may have powerful evil cultivators in charge. Our people found some clues, but they couldn't follow them."

"They're in Yuncheng," Yu Qing lowered his eyes slightly, still not saying the word 'too weak': "It's normal that you can't find the specific location."

Yu Huilian suddenly stopped, and the warm water rushed over the back of her hand and flowed onto the plate. "What are you going to do?"

She turned to look at Yu Qing, and her slightly furrowed brows showed that she was uneasy.

“Knock, knock.”

There was a knock on the door at the entrance, and it sounded urgent.
