Chu Yao observed carefully before leaving and found that this classroom was quite close to the backstage of the competition. Chu Yao was a little confused, but since she didn't understand, she would not think about it anymore.
Soon some students came in, but just like before, they did not return to the classroom after the competition, which put even more pressure on the remaining dozen or so people.
It wasn't until Chu Yao herself went on stage that she realized that this was the same routine as the third game.
There is just one more step, which is that the judges ask a question and ask the contestants to answer it. Of course, you can also choose to refuse to answer this question.
Chu Yao finally chose to answer this question. She only had five minutes, so she had to express herself clearly within these five minutes, in order to get extra points.
When Chu Yao finally left the competition venue, she was already a little tired, and because of her impromptu answer just now, she had a headache, a physical headache.
She closed her eyes.
Chu Yao vaguely felt that she had fallen asleep, and it was only when Lu Ranran came out and called her that she woke up.
"I'm sorry, Chu Yao, I didn't know you were tired and woke you up." Lu Ranran said a little embarrassedly.
"It's okay, I've rested well. How's the game going now?"
"It's almost time. I guess it'll be the same as last night. The results won't be out until later. Chu Yao, why don't you take a rest for a while? I'll call you when the time comes."
"No need, let's just wait quietly. Ranran, do you want to rest for a while?"
"Okay." Lu Ranran's face was full of fatigue, and she was exhausted.
Chu Yao looked around and saw that everyone was drowsy. Besides waiting anxiously, they might as well get some sleep. They had been under too much pressure recently and hadn't had a full night's sleep for several days.
Chu Yao consciously slowed down her movements.
She turned around and saw Tan Haoyu. He looked very energetic and not at all listless.
Chu Yao felt that this person's future achievements would definitely be extraordinary. Just looking at his strength and his calm state, it showed that he would definitely be a person with great achievements in the future.
Tan Haoyu met Chu Yao's gaze, and they smiled at each other in tacit understanding.
Today's time is a little earlier than yesterday, so the competition results were out at eight o'clock.
Twenty people were divided into two teams, with ten people in each team standing on the podium. Some of them were nervous, while others were calm. They had come this far, and it didn't matter whether they won or lost, at least they had proved themselves.
Finally, a very influential person will announce the five winners of the competition.
This old man is a leading figure in the academic world, named Su Guoyuan. He is currently a professor in the Foreign Languages Department of Tsinghua University.
Mr. Su Guoyuan looks very kind, but sometimes the aura he inadvertently reveals makes people feel a little breathless. This is the aura of a top boss.
He first read out the list of eliminated people, then gave some encouragement, and then began to announce the results of the remaining five people on the stage.
Mr. Su Guoyuan did not keep the suspense and announced the results starting from the fifth place.
Their names are: Ji Linfan, Lu Ranran, Gao Nan, Chu Yao, and Tan Haoyu.
"Congratulations to the above five students for qualifying for the national competition." After saying this, Mr. Su Guoyuan handed the stage over to the host and went down from the backstage.
What followed was all kinds of congratulations, and Chu Yao and the others kept smiling and bowing to express their gratitude to others.
After a long time, Chu Yao felt that her face was almost stiff from smiling, and her waist was no longer her own.
After the thanks, Chu Yao and the others received the news that they would prepare for the national competition at the beginning of the school year, which meant that they would start the next round of competition in three months, and the winner of the national competition would need to go abroad for a year of exchange study.
This is a pleasant surprise.
Chu Yao was exhausted when she got home. She collapsed on the sofa in the living room in a very ungraceful manner. When Yang Zhao, Yang Zhang and Yang Xuan came home from school, they saw their mother looking very tired. The three of them looked at each other and walked towards the sofa.
Some massaged her shoulders, some massaged her legs, and A Xuan even poured a glass of warm water for Chu Yao to drink.
Chu Yao was so touched. These brats were finally put to use. Now they were enjoying the treatment that belonged to their wives in advance.
It’s really delicious.
"Mom has been working hard lately. Let A Zhao massage Mom's shoulders."
"Mom has been working hard lately, let A Zhang give Mom a leg massage."
"Mom, you've been working hard lately. Come and have some water."
Chu Yao closed her eyes and enjoyed the caring care from her sons. At this time, Uncle Nian's voice came: "Ayao, are you guys finished with the competition? How do you think you performed this time?"
Chu Yao sat up straight, then hugged the three Ah Zhao brothers in her arms and said, "I got second place. There's a national competition starting next semester, and the winner can go abroad for a year of study and exchange. As for my own performance, I'm still a little dissatisfied. My oral and expression skills are still okay, but my knowledge reserves are not sufficient. I still have a lot to learn."
"Ayao, don't put too much pressure on yourself. You've only been learning foreign languages for a short time, and you're already ranked second in Kyoto. As for studying abroad, what do you think? Do you want to go abroad?"
Chu Yao shrank her neck in embarrassment. After all, she graduated from a well-known university in her previous life and her English was considered to be acceptable.
"I want to go. This is a great opportunity. I don't want to miss it. The details will depend on Yang Hang's arrangements."
