Chapter 678: Sand Sculpture Development, Asking Lao Xie (Part 1 and 2)
"You keep saying you're unhappy with Chen Cheng and Tan Jiaxi being selected, but the fact is both of them scored higher than you."
"You say you work hard and diligently, but don't you think Chen Cheng and Tan Jiaxi work hard and diligently? Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist."
Wu Pingting gritted her teeth, "But their scores and rankings in the last few quizzes were always behind mine."
"So what? Just because they're behind you for a while, they should always be behind you? You have the freedom to study hard, and they also have the right to keep improving."
Wu Pingting: "I've seen those training questions. Without you, they wouldn't have improved so quickly."
Chen Cheng and Tan Jiaxu's scores increased visibly, and their rankings became higher and higher.
Jiang Fuyue is the biggest cheat who can achieve such remarkable results in a short period of time!
“You can communicate with the teachers, why can’t they communicate with me?”
“This is different!”
Jiang Fuyue asked again: "What's the difference?"
Wu Pingting couldn't say it.
"Because the help the teacher gave you wasn't as great as the help I gave Chen Cheng and Tan Jiaxi, the former is considered normal learning, but the latter is considered cheating?"
Wu Pingting's mouth tightened and she was speechless.
"I understand your feelings, but I don't approve of your behavior."
"There are many people in this world who are better than you, and even more outcomes that are beyond your expectations. If a national team selection can make you go against your conscience, then your conscience is too cheap."
Wu Pingting shuddered, and shook her head with tears in her eyes: "I... I didn't want this to happen... But I'm so sad... I wanted to do something to make amends, but it seems that I made things worse..."
Just now, Professor Li called her to his office and criticized her harshly in front of other professors.
Although the professor did not say anything excessive to hurt her self-esteem, Wu Pingting clearly saw disappointment in his eyes.
That is a heavier emotion than disgust or contempt.
She would rather the professor scold her than silently label her as having bad behavior and being morally corrupt.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..." Tears welled up in the girl's eyes. Her unreasonable arguments and justifications were just superficial and could not hide the fact that her emotions were gradually collapsing.
After holding it in until now, it finally exploded.
Jiang Fuyue only heard a "Woo-wah" sound, and then the girl squatted in the corridor, buried her head in her arms, and performed a live version of wailing.
“…”
Just as she was about to leave quietly, the girl suddenly rushed over and hugged her calf.
Jiang Fuyue: “!”
Wu Pingting hiccuped and cried, "Wuwu... Sister Yue, I'm so sorry... I'm just so—hiccup! It's so sore."
Jiang Fuyue: “?”
The next second, the girl started to sob, "If we were schoolmates, classmates, you would definitely give me special treatment—hiccup! You wouldn't give them special treatment—hiccup!"
Chen Cheng and Tan Jiaxu, who rushed over after hearing the news, just happened to hear this sentence.
The two of them paused, and exchanged a quick glance—
Someone is vying for your favor! Beware!
Jiang Fuyue, whose calf was held, said: "......?"
Well, a little confused.
Finally, this "crying performance" ended with Wu Bingting successfully adding Jiang Fuyue on WeChat and skipping away.
Chen Cheng: He actually added me as a friend?!
Talking about praise: your position is in danger!
Their eyes met, and they instantly reached a tacit understanding. Without alerting Jiang Fuyue, they turned around and ran away stealthily.
Well, go and block Wu Pingting.
A cool breeze blew, and Jiang Fuyue suddenly came to his senses and looked down at his trouser legs.
Tsk, it’s wet.
She turned and left, passing by the office door, and suddenly met Li Zhao's eyes, which he didn't have time to look away.
Li Zhao was stunned and laughed awkwardly: "Haha... Hi? What a coincidence."
It was obvious that he was peeping and eavesdropping, and he was caught red-handed by the person involved. You really don't dare to laugh like that if you don't have a thick skin.
Jiang Fuyue walked straight past without looking around.
Li Zhao said loudly: "Student Jiang, get ready and leave early the day after tomorrow!"
She didn't respond, turned around and disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
At this moment, three more heads popped out from the door frame, looking in the direction Jiang Fuyue left.
Yuan Bentao: "Did she agree or not?"
Xiang Pengyi: "Silence is equivalent to consent."
He Longchang: "What if she doesn't come the day after tomorrow?"
Li Zhao turned around and stabbed him with his elbow: "You're such a jinx!"
"Hiss—Old Li! Are you crazy? So strong..."
"You were the one who hid the fastest just now, don't think I didn't see it!"
He Longchang: "It's your own slow reaction, who can you blame?"
"Hey, you're asking for a beating!"
"Would you like to peel one and see?"
"Don't run if you can!"
…
Downstairs, Chen Cheng and Tan Jiaxu relied on their long legs to easily catch up with Wu Pingting.
"W-What do you want to do?"
Chen Cheng was a bit shy, so he usually greeted everyone first when he came up: "Mr. Wu, did you enjoy your lunch?"
Wu Pingting: “?” Is he not very smart?
Tan Jiaxu's mouth twitched, and he pushed him away directly: "You...you...you are not allowed to look for Sister Yue normally!"
"ah?"
Tan Jiaxu: "Stop pretending! We all saw you trick Sister Yue into giving you her WeChat!"
Wu Pingting glared: "I'm not lying! Sister Yue agreed to add me, so I added her."
Chen Cheng scratched his head. What should he do?
Tan Jiaxu didn't care. "Sister Yue is usually very busy! Super busy! Busy as hell! If you were more understanding, you would have deleted her WeChat."
Wu Pingting immediately covered her phone and looked at the two of them as if they were bandits: "I'm not empathetic at all, really!"
Tan Jiaxu: "..."
Chen Cheng thought about it and decided that he couldn't do anything, so he could only say, "Sister Yue is ours, don't even think about snatching her away."
Tan Jiaxu nodded: "She won't be your schoolmate, nor will she give you special treatment."
Chen Cheng replied seriously: "We are the only ones who are her sweethearts!"
Tan Jiaxu: “…” I didn’t expect you to be such an orange!
Finally, the two said in unison: "You—better not have any other ideas!"
Wu Pingting: “…” Are you having cat disease?
Those who don't know would think it was some melodramatic novel scene, with two overbearing CEOs "evil warning" to the little white flower heroine -
Woman, please be quiet.
Wu Bingting watched as the two young men, who were not ugly in appearance but seemed to have some mental problems, turned around, lifted the corners of their clothes, and strode away.
She couldn't help but wonder—
That's it? How did you get into the national team?
The next second, she seemed to understand——
It’s just that Sister Yue is too strong. She can teach an idiot to become a genius.
Woohoo... She's jealous again!
I looked up to the heavens and asked for the Nth time: Why is it not me, not me, not me... (crazy mumbling)
That evening, Jiang Fuyue left school and returned to the Han family.
Han Ke drove over to pick her up.
I received a lot of calls during the trip, all from investors and colleagues asking for information.
"Manager Han, the unknown virus appearing in Continent F won't affect the price of rough diamonds, right? Should I sell my current holdings or not? Is there any need to stockpile for a higher price?"
"Old Han, I plan to sell my F Continent nonferrous metal stocks at a high price as soon as the market opens tomorrow. What do you think?"
"I heard this virus is not simple and highly contagious. It has already spread to several countries in Northern F. Diamond mines are mostly distributed in Southern F, so there won't be much fluctuation for the time being. However, it's hard to say about oil prices..."
"The virus is coming on strong, and it looks like another tug-of-war. I'm optimistic about rice, grains, and daily necessities. Big capital has been pouring into the market since last week."
Han Ke fiddled with the steering wheel while adjusting his Bluetooth headset. "China has already sent a team of experts to Continent F for support. It's said that the leader is very capable and has made considerable achievements in the field of viruses. The possibility of a tug-of-war is very low."
"Expert?" The other end scoffed, sounding somewhat unconvinced. "I've got inside information. The symptoms of this viral infection are even more terrifying than hemorrhagic fever. It's impossible to overcome it in a short period of time. Unless Professor Xie goes there personally, there might be a glimmer of hope."
But Han Ke still insisted on not entering the market.
Rice and daily necessities are directly related to the life and death of ordinary people in Continent F.
He can't do it.
"Forget it, forget it. I know you don't make money from war or epidemics, but you can't change this habit!"
Han Ke smiled slightly and ended the call.
Sudden--
"Second uncle, do you know the leader of the expert team?"
Seeing her serious expression, Han Ke didn't try to be ambiguous like he was trying to please the others outside. Instead, he said directly, "I have a classmate who works in the Ministry of Health. We had dinner together yesterday, and he told me a little bit, but not much."
Jiang Fuyue: "Who is the leader?"
Han Ke shook his head: "I don't know, this is a state secret, even my classmates at that level don't have the right to know."
"By the way, why did you suddenly think of asking this?"
Two updates, three thousand words.
There will be another update at 1:50, so please update on time, don't update in advance~
