nAs Chu Luo spoke, she walked back to her desk before everyone’s eyes and took out a mock examination paper. She walked in front of Li Tao, flipped open the papers, and pointed at a question that was beyond the scope of the syllabus. She looked at him and said, “Let’s solve this question together. If you can solve it before me, I’ll let you teach me.”

n

nBefore Li Tao could say a word, the others who were about to leave stopped and started jeering.

n

n“Chu Luo, are you crazy? How dare you challenge the Math class representative! How courageous of you!”

n

n“Did you forget that Li Tao participated in the National High School Mathematical Olympiad and got third place?”

n

n“I think you’ve become arrogant because of Old Gao’s special care.”

n

n“I’ve decided to wait for you to solve this question before going to eat. I want to see how you’re going to slap yourself in the face.”

n

n“Me too. I’m guessing Li Tao only needs ten minutes to solve this question.”

n

nWhile everyone was cheering, Li Tao glared at Chu Luo. He took the question from her hand and looked at it with a sullen expression. Then, he glared at her and gritted his teeth. “Chu Luo, you must have done it on purpose. How can you possibly solve such a question?”

n

nChu Luo hated it when people doubted her ability. Without a word, she walked to the podium, took out a piece of chalk from the chalk box, and stood in front of the blackboard.

n

nThen, she said, “You’ll know whether or not I can solve later.”

n

nAfter that, she raised her hand and started to write the solution on the blackboard.

n

nThe others looked at her in surprise.

n

nSomeone reminded her, “Chu Luo, aren’t you going to look at the question?”

n

nHe Jiang, the class monitor who had a good relationship with Li Tao, walked to Li Tao’s side and placed his hand on his shoulder. He persuaded, “Li Tao, just leave her be. If Chu Luo really doesn’t want to study, surely you’re not going to force her to learn?”

n

nAfter speaking, he looked at Chu Luo, who was speedily solving the math problem. He wanted to joke about whether Chu Luo had offended him in some way.

n

nAt this moment, Li Tao used his arm to shake off his hand and walked up to the podium with the test paper.

n

nHe also picked up a piece of chalk and started calculating on the blackboard.

n

nAt first, everyone looked on with interest. Then, someone suddenly exclaimed, “Why do I feel that Li Tao’s steps are exactly the same as Chu Luo’s?”

n

nThese words made everyone subconsciously compare the steps of the two solving the problem seriously. When they saw it, they were so shocked that their eyes grew wide open and their mouths went agape.

n

nEveryone subconsciously held their breath and focused on the two of them writing the steps on the blackboard.

n

nOutside the classroom, Old Gao, who happened to pass by, stood by the back door and watched for a while. He couldn’t help but wear a satisfied smile on his face.

n

nThis question that was beyond the scope of the syllabus was obviously very difficult. Li Tao had no choice but to stop halfway and consider the next steps.

n

nHe subconsciously turned his head to look at Chu Luo. When he saw her writing quickly and fluidly, he was immediately shocked. For some reason, his gaze landed on the steps she had written.

n

nWhat he saw made him freeze.

n

nChu Luo solved this question very quickly. She turned around and accurately tossed the chalk into the chalk box. She turned to glance at Li Tao, who was standing there in a daze. Then, she looked at Li Tao’s half-done solution. She lifted her chin slightly and announced with a cold expression, “You lost.”

n

nChu Luo left the classroom before anyone could react.

n

nAfter a while, everyone in the classroom exploded.

n

nIt was more than incredible. It was simply unbelievable.

n

nHe Jiang walked over to Li Tao, who was still in a daze. He patted Li Tao’s shoulder and comforted him with a complicated tone. “It’s possible that she just happened to have done this question before. Don’t take it to heart.”

n

nLi Tao looked at him fiercely. His expression turned even uglier as his eyes burned with anger. “How big do you think the possibility is?”

n

nWith that, he left the classroom with a tense face.

n

n“Hey! No…” He Jiang looked at Li Tao, who suddenly left in a rage, and felt that his good intentions had been kicked by a donkey.

n

n“I was just trying to give you an out. Are you really going to admit that you’re worse than a lousy student?”

n

nAt this point, he rubbed his chin thoughtfully. “Chu Luo was actually able to solve such a difficult question. Could it be that she had been deliberately hiding her abilities previously?”
