Chapter 80 Training
Shen Yanting was not stupid, so how could he show his inferior side in front of his future daughter-in-law? He immediately refused coldly.
However, the salesman next to her looked at Su Yi with a complicated expression and asked, "Little sister, you just lied to me, didn't you? You don't look like you've never played with a Rubik's Cube before."
"I haven't played it, but I have a good memory and just memorized the formula." Su Yi shook his head and said.
This sounds even more unreliable.
You’ve only been studying for a short time, and you’ve memorized so many formulas?
The sales guy felt that the girl was too dishonest, and his good impression of her was instantly gone.
"Gu Suyi?" A surprised voice suddenly appeared.
Then she saw a boy named Yu Tian from No. 1 Middle School whom she had met when she participated in the Mathematical Olympiad League. He had something like a work badge hanging around his neck.
"Yu Tian?" Su Yi remembered him. "Are you participating in the competition here?"
"It's just a part-time job." Yu Tian said with a smile, "What about you?"
"I was passing by here and thought the Rubik's Cube was interesting, so I tried it out."
Hearing this, Yu Tian was even more surprised: "Haven't you ever played with a Rubik's Cube?"
Su Yi shook his head.
"The Rubik's Cube is actually quite fun, and there are tutorials online. However, a master like you should challenge yourself to a higher-level Rubik's Cube. Today, this is just the kids' game. If you're interested, I can recommend a purchase link. The ones with irregular faces are really fun."
"Okay, thank you."
After chatting for a few sentences, Su Yi and Shen Yanting left.
The sales guy couldn't help but ask, "Do you know her? From what you guys said, is this really her first time playing with a Rubik's Cube?"
"That's right. There's no need for her to lie."
"But she solved the 4th-order Rubik's Cube in less than two minutes, and she only did it by looking up an online tutorial." The young man didn't believe it.
"Other people may not be able to do it, but she can. She was the second in the country in this year's Olympic Mathematical Competition. I heard from our No. 1 Middle School's team leader that she seems to have the ability to remember everything she sees." Yu Tian said this with particular envy and admiration for Su Yi, who missed the national training camp this time by two points.
Sales guy: “…”
Sorry to bother you.
It was almost nine o'clock when Chen Yanting reluctantly sent Su Yi home. Su Yi seemed to have found a new way to relieve stress and placed a lot of orders for Rubik's Cubes of various kinds online.
The next day, as soon as school started, the entire high school department took a surprise inspection and examination, which immediately caused a lot of complaints.
Su Yi didn't care. She finished the test paper calmly and handed it in, then went to do her IMO test questions. The other students in the key class were also used to Su Yi's godlike speed, and everyone was thinking hard.
The four teenagers in the group were not so happy because they had completely forgotten about their textbooks during the New Year period. Only Chen Yanting was slightly better off. He was forced by Su Yi to do a set of math tests yesterday, and today's math test happened to have several similar questions.
The results of the surprise inspection were obviously not ideal. Even the average scores of students in the key classes dropped by several points. The only thing that remained unchanged was Su Yi's legendary perfect score.
Fortunately, this surprise inspection will not be counted as a monthly exam result, and no report card will be printed. The four teenagers breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, they would have been bragging about their academic progress before the New Year, and then been slapped in the face after the New Year, which would have been too embarrassing.
Su Yi gave them two days to adjust their condition, and then started a new round of devilish training.
At the end of the month, Su Yi received a notice to go to USTC to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad training.
Before leaving, Su Yi assigned study tasks to the teenagers, especially Shen Yanting, whose tasks were doubled.
"Chen Yanting, your goal is Qingdao University, which is different from theirs. I believe you can accomplish it." Su Yi did not forget to encourage the young man.
Speaking of this, Shen Yanting still felt a little regretful. With his current grades, it was too difficult to get into Qingdao University. But if he failed, the consequences would be even more serious. His wife might fly away.
Therefore, the lazy Mr. Shen had no choice but to spend money to hire a senior tutor. He stopped hanging out in the Internet cafe and fighting, and went back to the study room as soon as school was over.
Seeing how hard Chen Yanting worked, the other three teenagers felt embarrassed to ask him to go out and "relax", so they could only work hard with him. Occasionally, when their parents visited the class, they would be pleased to see that their children were really studying seriously.
They were glad that they believed in the little girl Su Yi, otherwise they would probably never see the hard-working side of their child.
Since the training requires closed and unified management, USTC has also specially vacated dormitory rooms for the teachers and students participating in the training. Even students from the local city are not allowed to go home. The dormitories have curfews at night. No students are allowed to ask for leave during the training unless there are special and irresistible reasons.
Very strict.
The dormitory building where Su Yi lives has an elevator. She was assigned to a dormitory on the sixth floor. There are four beds in the dormitory, with a desk underneath, a small balcony, and an independent bathroom.
In the past two years, there have been very few girls participating in the national training team for the Mathematical Olympiad. This year, there are four girls, which is also the class with the most girls in the past two years.
In addition to Wu Xintong, the other two roommates are Li Hao and Liu Xiaolu.
When Su Yi arrived at the dormitory, the other three had already arrived. After getting to know each other, Liu Xiaolu suddenly asked Su Yi, "I heard that the prize money at LinkedIn Middle School is very high. How much was the prize money when you won first prize last time?"
