n“I’ll go.” Xu Yaoguang walked forward.

nIf the speaker wasn’t good at improvising, then he would lose face in front of the school and all the cameras, so the pressure was especially great.

nEveryone in class 3.9 felt that in this situation, Xu Yaoguang was the most suitable.

nLin Siran also reacted and wanted to hold Qin Ran’s hand. “Yeah, Ran Ran, don’t do it out of anger. This matter isn’t your fault. Let Xu…”

nBut she failed to hold Qin Ran.

nQin Ran didn’t stop walking. She waved at Lin Siran and said softly, “Don’t worry.”

nThey had already arrived in the classroom and the judges were already scoring. It was their class’s turn soon, and when Lin Siran saw Qin Ran walking towards the podium, she quickly grabbed her notebook from her desk. “Then I’ll give you my notebook!”

nQin Ran was already standing by the side of the podium, her fingertips slightly cold.

nAt the same time, the judges finished their scoring.

nThere were several city-level leaders in the jury, and they all gave the average score after removing the highest and the lowest score. Qin Yu got a score of 8.7.

nThe rest of them were still discussing her presentation.

nThe highest scores obtained by the first two classes were only 7.6, so Qin Yu’s score was by far the highest.

n“We got 8.7,” the girl next to Qin Yu suppressed her excitement and said excitedly. “It’s the highest score!”

nHer score was much higher than the others and they all started talking about Qin Yu.

nAll eyes were gathered on her.

nQin Yu pursed her lips and smiled. She already saw that Xu Yaoguang and the others were back, so she turned to them and asked, “Have they found their script?”

n“I saw that Qin Ran went up empty-handed, so I don’t think they did.” The girl shook her head. “If they do badly now, the dean will surely be angry.”

n“How could he not be angry if she does badly in front of the municipal leaders? I heard that Qin Ran was the one who kept the scripts, she’s really…” Another girl also whispered.

nQin Yu smiled, got up, and went to the leaders to get her feedback.

nWhile the leaders complimented Qin Yu, the others whispered amongst themselves. It seemed like they were talking about Qin Ran, and two people even praised the school for having good-looking students.

nQin Yu was familiar with the dean, so she lowered her eyes and whispered, “Dean, Qin Ran’s class lost their script, so it might not be too smooth… don’t make things too difficult for her.”

nThe Dean was shocked, then he nodded.

nHis expression wasn’t too good.

nIf the script was lost, it was an attitude problem.

n**

nSoon, it was class 3.9’s turn.

nLin Siran was sitting on her seat, signaling Qin Ran with her notebook. Qin Ran didn’t come back to take the notebook, just gestured for Lin Siran to rest assured.

nRest assured?

nHow could Lin Siran possibly feel rest assured?

nXu Yaoguang sat firmly and glanced at Qin Ran.

nShe was standing straight and her face wasn’t as absent-minded and inattentive as before. She looked more serious now and was so natural she didn’t look like she had stage-fright.

nShe didn’t look like she was messing around.

nHe paused and relaxed his eyebrows. “Since she said not to worry, then she must be confident.”

nThe other people were still looking for the script. Class 3.9 was also furious that someone had deliberately taken Qin Ran’s script.

nSomeone scolded the person for being unethical.

nWu Yan sneered and said satirically, “She did not participate in writing the script from beginning to end. She only knows how to play around every day and don’t take things seriously at all. I already said since the beginning that we shouldn’t let her participate.”

n“Enough, Wu Yan.” A girl frowned. “Who knew that there would be such a nasty student?”

nWu Yan heard this student’s words and her face turned dark, but she said nothing.

nShe just glanced at Qin Ran and pursed her lips. She clenched the corner of her jacket, her fingers tightening.

nQin Ran stood still and greeted the judges first.

nThe Dean raised his hand and asked in an undulated voice, “Where is your script? Did you lose it?”

nQin Ran put her hands on the podium and smiled very politely. “Teachers and judges, I have memorized the script in advance, so I didn’t bring my script.”

nEveryone knew that it was considered a disrespect to this activity and to the judges to have lost her script on such an important occasion.

nQin Ran had concealed the fact that she had lost her script, but Lin Siran, Xu Yaoguang, and the other people in class 3.9 were sweating.

nIn this debate contest, it was a development for the social sciences, which was a hot spot in the world and all the universities were inclined to participate. Xu Yaoguang and Lin Siran and the others had researched a lot of information and had included professional vocabulary used from other countries.

nMost importantly, no one knew better than Lin Siran that Qin Ran didn’t participate in this debate from beginning to end. She had only let Qin Ran read the general script this morning and had only let her read the script once.

nQin Ran hasn’t even read the script enough times, so how could she have memorized it?

n“It turns out that you have memorized it and did your homework in advance.” The Dean glanced at Qin Ran and said solemnly, “Then begin.”

nLin Siran’s spine was cold and sweaty, and the people in class 3.9 all had dark expressions on their faces.

nQin Yu only stared at Qin Ran, her lips curled up.

nQin Ran smiled very lightly. She picked up a piece of chalk and drew a stick figure on the blackboard on the back half. “From the perspective of the teenagers, the technology system is roughly divided into three aspects…”

nHalf of the blackboard showed the slides and the other half was empty.

nHer analogy was very simple, but her explanation was extremely vivid.

nHer tone was calm and her speech was organized clearly and without the slightest bit of stuttering.

nLin Siran was right. She looked good and was like the most beautiful background even while standing still.

nFurthermore, when she talked, she wasn’t unbridled like the others but exuded a sort of unprecedented seriousness that made her whole person shine.

nSome people in the classroom were whispering softly and even looking over subconsciously every few seconds.

nThe expression on the Dean’s face changed from displeasure to surprise, and then from surprise to seriousness.

nAll the classes were sitting at their seats, looking up at Qin Ran dumbfounded. They couldn’t return to their senses for a while, especially Lin Siran, who had personally written most of the script.

nIt had been written by her, so she still had a somewhat vague memory of it. Wasn’t the first paragraph of Qin Ran’s speech the opening statement?

nQin Ran had only read through it several times, but she had memorized the whole script already?!
