The three of them happily ate cake and drank coffee at the coffee shop until the exam was almost over before they came outside the exam hall.
At this moment, Xu Xing was standing alone in the corner.
Jiang Xiaoli called his name, and Xu Xing looked up, revealing an expression of "I knew it."
He walked over and said, "I guessed you handed in your paper early."
Shang Run asked with a smile, "Xu Xing, what are your answers to these three questions?"
Here he comes! The teacher who's here to check the answers after the exam is here!
Xu Xing gave his answer, and Teacher Zhao happily gave Shang Run a high five.
"That's great!"
Less than ten minutes later, the exam time ended, and the contestants walked out of the exam room one after another.
On the first day of the exam, the Chinese team performed well, which greatly boosted their morale!
The next day, before Jiang Xiaoli entered the examination room, Rebecca called out to her.
"Jiang, I heard you finished your paper in an hour and a half yesterday. You're very confident, but I'm sure I'll be faster than you today and get a higher score. Just you wait and see!"
Jiang Xiaoli replied to her, "Oh."
Rebecca felt like she'd punched a pillow. She asked urgently, "Don't you want to tell me anything?"
Jiang Xiaoli looked up at her. This woman is really tall, she must be 178 cm, right?
She honestly shared her feelings, asking, "Do you drink milk every day?"
"What is all this nonsense?!" Rebecca exclaimed, jumping up and down in anger.
She decided not to get entangled with Jiang Xiaoli and said harshly, "I will beat you in points!"
After saying that, she turned and ran away.
Anke hadn't even entered the examination room yet, but she witnessed the entire conversation between the two of them.
She covered her mouth and laughed nonstop, "Little Pear, you're so funny! Rebecca's hair is practically flying in the air from anger!"
Jiang Xiaoli grinned, "Hmph, let her provoke me. I won't even bother with her. Let her provoke the air!"
After encouraging each other, the two went into the examination room.
The questions on the second day were more difficult than those on the first day. A boy in Jiang Xiaoli's exam room cried when he saw the questions.
She couldn't help but shake her head. "You cried while looking at the exam questions, you're something else!"
She shook her head, clearing her mind of all distractions, and focused on answering the questions.
Although today's questions were difficult, the amount of writing required was relatively small, and Jiang Xiaoli finished her paper early, taking only one hour and five minutes.
This time, the contestants around her didn't react at all. They were numb and firmly believed that this person was definitely not of the same species as them!
When she handed in her paper, she ran into several acquaintances: Rebecca, Xu Xing, and a representative from Canada.
Rebecca thought she was going to be very fast today and would definitely crush Jiang Xiaoli, but when she saw that Jiang Xiaoli had also handed in her paper, she was so angry that she almost ground her teeth to powder.
Jiang Xiaoli completely ignored her and walked out side by side with Xu Xing. "Xu Xiaoxing, how is it?"
Xu Xing regained the confidence he had when he first met Jiang Xiaoli two years ago, "I'm determined to win this gold medal."
When Shang Run and Teacher Zhao saw them come out, they looked up at the time, said nothing, and led the two to the coffee shop from yesterday.
With paper and pens ready, the two of them began writing down the questions and answers.
Jiang Xiaoli writes quickly; she writes the first two questions, while Xu Xing writes the last one.
Then the two of them wrote down the exact same answer at the same time.
This time, Shang Run and Teacher Zhao were basically certain that their answer was correct.
Driven by curiosity about the problem, the two of them huddled together and began to study it.
Soon, a smile spread across Shang Run's face, and he called the waiter over to add another piece of cake.
"This cake is for your early celebration!"
Teacher Zhao looked at the two of them with a smile, "I really didn't expect that you two could solve problems so quickly and so well."
Now he wanted to persuade Jiang Xiaoli to study math again, "Jiang, you are so talented in math, you really shouldn't give it up."
With a smear of cream on her lips, Jiang Xiaoli said, "Teacher Zhao, you may not know me very well. I really have a lot of talent in many things."
Shang Run patted Teacher Zhao on the shoulder, "Don't try to persuade me. I only found out recently myself. That boneless chicken feet from 'Jiang Li Ji' that you especially like is the flagship product of our company, founded by our young boss, Mr. Jiang."
"What?!" Teacher Zhao was shocked!
Every year, several contestants win the imo gold medal, but very few people can start such a large company at the age of teens.
The only one they knew was right in front of them!
Teacher Zhao sighed and stopped trying to persuade him. Instead, she joked, "Young Master Jiang, from now on, I'll be a loyal fan of your 'Jiang Li Ji'!"
Jiang Xiaoli nodded with a smile, "Thank you, Teacher Zhao, for your support of my company. I'll mail you a 'Jiang Li Ji' gift pack when I get back, so you can eat your fill!"
"Haha, then I won't stand on ceremony with you!" Teacher Zhao agreed with a smile.
Seeing her beaming face, Xu Xing finally understood that Jiang Xiaoli was indeed someone who had been true to herself from the very beginning, pursuing only what she loved.
It seems that my previous thinking was too narrow-minded.
As the exam neared its end, they got up and went outside the examination hall.
Xu Xing walked behind the two teachers with Jiang Xiaoli, and he said, "Jiang Xiaoli, I'm sorry."
"Huh?" What kind of apology is this all of a sudden?
Xu Xing took a deep breath. "Before, I thought you were being silly and had a problem with you because you said you wanted to study business. Now it seems I was too superficial."
Oh, I see.
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "It's okay. Everyone has different opinions on the same thing. How could I possibly be angry with you over this?"
Xu Xing suddenly turned his head, "Really not?"
Jiang Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, "Um...maybe it happened before, but since you, Xu Shen, have apologized, what do I have to be angry about?"
Xu Xing smiled and said, "Yes."
They met An Ke, Yu Yang, and the others outside the examination hall, and then returned to the hotel together.
Tomorrow is the day for marking papers and giving lectures, and Anke couldn't wait to ask Shangrun if she could go out for a stroll.
Shang Run hesitated for a moment, then Xu Xing stepped forward, "Teacher Shang, I'll go with them. We won't go far, just nearby. Is that alright?"
Yu Yang and the other two also expressed their desire to go out together.
Teacher Zhao simply picked up his bag and said, "Alright, Teacher Shang, you stay at the hotel. I'll go shopping with the kids. It's not easy to get out of town, so I'll buy my wife some small gifts."
Jiang Xiaoli chuckled, "Teacher Zhao, I think people who like to eat are worth choosing. Look, you even know to buy your wife a gift before you go out. What a good husband!"
"Hahaha, you little rascal! You're making fun of me now!"
The group chatted and laughed as they went out for a stroll.
