Chapter 123: Stand out from Her Home Province

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This impressive lesson had made her realize that when it comes to dealing with men, both her words and actions should have certain boundaries!

Two weeks later, the final exams, which marked the end of a semester, arrived in Fujun Town.

After the finals, the 18 students, Ye Jian included, would go to the Provincial No.1 Middle School to take the trial exam after resting for two days. They departed at seven on the morning of June 29th and arrived at the provincial capital city 18 hours later.

Over 200 students, including the students from Fujun Town Middle School, partic.i.p.ated in the provincial-level trial.

Among these 200 or so students, only 12 of them could attend the national trial exam which would be held in Beijing.

After the national trial, only 12 candidates would represent the country to attend the World Science Olympiad. They were the best of the elites!

Comprised of junior high and senior high division, the Provincial No.1 Middle School was the largest, strictest school with the best quality of education in this province.

Ye Jian, who rested well last night, walked into this school which she couldn’t attend in her past life. The scorchingly hot sun didn’t affect her good mood.

Princ.i.p.al Chen, who came here with his students, was standing on the fifth floor of the boys’ dormitory building. As he noticed Ye Jian taking a walk in the garden, he smiled and said to Princ.i.p.al Cao, “This girl is mentally stronger than other students. The rest of the students are making use of this day to study. Good for her. She is wandering around.”

“The exam is also psychological warfare. What she is doing is very nice,” Princ.i.p.al Cao laughed. From his words and facial expressions, he held great expectations of Ye Jian. “Usually, over half of the 12 candidates come from the capital city. If a student from our province can go abroad on behalf of our country, he/she will be the proof of the quality of education of our province.”

Hence, if Ye Jian could be selected, she would represent her home province as well as her home country.

Princ.i.p.al Chen, who had identified the implications in Princ.i.p.al Cao’s words, had little interest in fame or fortune. He said plainly, “We just hope that it won’t influence her life. Things such as interviews and appearances on the news are unnecessary.”

“This is what I hope for, which is also her request before she agreed to attend the compet.i.tion. Old Cao, please understand our concerns.”

“She wants neither fame nor gain. Alas, she sure is your student, Old Chen.” Princ.i.p.al Cao patted his longtime colleague on his shoulder with admiration. “Let’s see if she can stand out from the trial and become one of the 12 students.”

In this regard, Princ.i.p.al Chen was 100% certain about Ye Jian, but… He contemplated for a while, sighing, “Ye Jian has little interest in this compet.i.tion. You need to make greater efforts to persuade her to try hard in the exam so that she can become one of the 12 students nationwide…”

Hearing this, Princ.i.p.al Cao burst into laughter. “I believe that someone, who you know as well, can convince her to try her best! Come, let me take you to a place.”

When Princ.i.p.al Chen saw who that person was, a concerned look appeared in his eyes. After Princ.i.p.al Cao left, he looked at the young Major who had n.o.ble manners and said in a deep voice, “I have a bad feeling about this.”

Princ.i.p.al Chen sensed a rush of chill, despite the hot weather.

Leisurely, Ye Jian walked out of the library, reading the original edition of an English cla.s.sic that she borrowed. She started taking a walk from nine in the morning. She kept strolling around the Swan Lake of the Provincial No.1 Middle School until over 11 o’clock before noon.

The Swan Lake was an old-time landscape which had survived warfare. Fish were swimming in the clear lake, of which the surface was sparkling in the sun. Alongside the river bank, the green willow leaves were swaying along with the breezes.
