Hengyang smiled dismissively: "I think the two teachers seem to care a lot about the students in our class, especially about Bai Qianmo's studies."
"Teacher Heng, Teacher Zhou and I aren't concerned about Bai Qianmo, we're concerned about you. Your Class 7 used to be one of the top classes in the whole grade. Don't let Bai Qianmo affect the overall performance of the class. Although she does well in biology and physics in the science subjects, she only scores a few points in chemistry and math in every assessment test. Students with such serious imbalances in their subjects can easily drag the class down."
Hengyang smiled with narrowed eyes, reached out and took off his glasses, casually rubbing his brow.
"How about this, I'll make a bet with the two teachers?"
On Monday, Qian and Xing Zhenzhen looked stunned.
"A bet? Teacher Heng, what kind of bet do you want to make?"
"I bet she'll make it to the finals of the International Mathematical Olympiad after the New Year."
"Hehe, Teacher Heng, are you kidding me? Last year, only one student from our school made it to the national finals. How could a student like Bai Qianmo, who only scored a few points in math, be qualified to enter the national regional competition? Don't say I look down on her; it's absolutely impossible for her to do that in just two or three months."
Zhou Yiqian took a sip of tea and gave a disdainful snort: "I saw the introduction of Bai Qianmo on JQ's official website. She is studying in JQ's Junior Class. Although I heard that class is known as a 'gathering place for geniuses,' most of the students are teenagers. Moreover, foreign universities place great emphasis on the cultivation of students' specialized knowledge. If you are very talented in a certain field, you can be admitted by the school. These students seem to have high IQs, but many of them have serious imbalances in their academic performance. The methods used by JQ University may not be very effective in dealing with our Chinese exams. Teacher Heng, you are likely to lose this bet."
Hengyang rubbed his hands together, his clear eyes looking at Xing Zhenzhen and Zhou Yiqian: "Since the two teachers are sure to win, then we should definitely take this bet."
"What are we betting on?" Zhou Yiqian's competitive spirit was piqued, and he felt that Hengyang was bound to lose this bet.
Hengyang waved, and Zhou Yiqian and Xing Zhenzhen walked over curiously.
"Let's make a bet..."

After school
Bai Qianmo was summoned to Hengyang's office.
She was a little puzzled as to why Hengyang had suddenly summoned her.
"Teacher Heng."
Bai Qianmo stood at the office door, which was open, and there were still a few teachers inside.
"Qianmo, come in quickly." Hengyang looked up from his desk and smiled like a Buddha at Bai Qianmo.
This one glance made Bai Qianmo feel uneasy all over. Why did she feel that Hengyang's gaze was full of scheming?
"Teacher Heng, is there something you need?"
"Please have a seat. I still have a few exam papers to grade."
"Okay!" Bai Qianmo sat down in a chair and waited quietly.
The other teachers had already left one after another. Bai Qianmo raised her wrist and glanced at her watch.
It was almost six o'clock, and she had arranged to have a last-minute meeting at the company at 6:30 with Li Song, Chen Xiang, and Sister Su.
"What? Have you been very busy lately?"
"fine."
Hengyang put down the test paper in his hand, raised his clear eyes and looked at Bai Qianmo: "I called you here today for two things. The first is that your three-month trial period as an auditor has ended. After discussion, the school leaders have decided to make you a formal student of our No. 1 Middle School starting after the New Year."
Upon hearing this news, Bai Qianmo showed no reaction on her face.
If JQ's academic background hadn't been exposed, No. 1 Middle School would definitely have been eager for her to leave as soon as possible; this outcome was expected.
Hengyang smiled and said, "You don't seem very happy."
"I'm probably more interested in the second thing you're going to say."
Hengyang coughed lightly, glanced around to make sure all the teachers had left, and whispered, "You'd better show your true abilities and do your best in the National Mathematical Olympiad after the New Year. You must make it into the national finals."
Bai Qianmo frowned slightly, her eyes fixed on Hengyang.
"Teacher Heng, what's wrong...?"
Hengyang chuckled twice: "To tell you the truth, Xing Zhenzhen, Zhou Yiqian, and I made a bet. I bet you can make it to the national finals, but Teacher Zhou and Teacher Xing think you won't make it past the preliminary round. Don't you think they're underestimating you?"
Bai Qianmo smiled knowingly: "So, what is your bet?"
Judging from how enthusiastic he is, the bet must be quite large.
Hengyang grinned and held up two fingers: "If I win, each of them will put up 20,000 yuan in bets, which will add up to 40,000 yuan. How about I give you half of that?"
Bai Qianmo tugged at the corner of her lips.
Teacher Heng, where is your professional ethics?
"Teacher, I never knew you were such a shameless person."
Hengyang: "..."
Is integrity valuable?
A shrewd glint flashed in Bai Qianmo's eyes: "But I like it!"
"So, you're agreeing?"
Bai Qianmo raised an eyebrow: "Why not take money that's offered to you?"
"Hehe...hehehe, you truly are my student. It's been a pleasure working with you!"

As Bai Qianmo left the school, Rong Yi's car was waiting at the school gate.
When Bai Qianmo walked over, she noticed that there was another person sitting in the passenger seat. Looking towards the back seat, she saw that Gu Jueye was indeed in the car.
"Little Momo!" Du Muchen rolled down the car window and greeted Bai Qianmo with a warm smile.
Bai Qianmo opened the back door, got in, and closed the door behind her.
"I heard you've been secretly working with Xie Gouzi lately. Why didn't you invite your brother Chen?" Du Muchen turned around and protested.
Bai Qianmo glanced at Gu Jueye beside her, moved closer to him, and naturally hooked her arm around his before lifting her eyelids to look back at Du Muchen.
"Can something you all know be considered a secret? If Brother Chen is interested in investing, you're welcome to join us."
"Let's skip this one. I heard Xie Gouzi has already invested 70 million. It wouldn't make sense for me to join in. Next time there's a good opportunity like this, remember to call your brother Chen first."
“Okay, Brother Chen.” Bai Qianmo readily agreed.
With these big money-makers around, will she still have to worry about funding for her future films?
Gu Jueye slowly rubbed Bai Qianmo's fingers: "I heard from Rong Yi that your homeroom teacher kept praising you at the parent-teacher meeting today?"
This girl is so outstanding, she deserves to be seen by everyone.
Bai Qianmo smiled, her eyes narrowing: "Keep it low-key. By the way, what brings you guys to my school all of a sudden?"
Du Muchen said, "Of course I'm here to pick you up from school."
Bai Qianmo glanced out the window. This was indeed the road to Tengyue. She had called Rong Yi before going to the Hengyang office, so Rong Yi knew she was going to the company after school.
Gu Jueye and Du Muchen came along too, are they going to her company as well?
