If Xia Qinghuan did not gossip, then she was not Xia Qinghuan.
Jian Ai held her arm and said as they walked, “He helped me yesterday, so I went to thank him. Then, we chatted briefly, and I felt he was a good person, so we became friends.”
Nonsense!
This was Xia Qinghuan’s reaction.
They even chatted briefly? Did Si Yuehan know how to talk to people? She wouldn’t believe it.
Seeing Xia Qinghuan’s expression of disbelief, Jian Ai also felt that her lie was a little cheap. She couldn’t help but laugh embarrassedly and pretended to be spoiled. “Oh, don’t ask so much. Anyway, I’m his good friend now.”
“Just good friends?” Xia Qinghuan turned on her radar and asked with a frown.
“Otherwise?” Jian Ai glared at her. “Can’t you think of something clean in your head? Can’t a man and a woman have pure friendship?”
“Stop joking!” Xia Qinghuan said, “Then why did you enter school together?”
Jian Ai: “He’s also from South City.”
“Ah?” Xia Qinghuan was stunned and looked surprised. “Si Yuehan is from South City?”
No way. He looked so elegant and stylish, yet he was from South City District?
Most importantly, Si Yuehan had lived with the royal family of Qiusi for four years and had an indescribable noble aura. He did not look like a child from a poor family at all.
“It’s true,” Jian Ai lied without blinking.
Because after this, she might go to school with Si Yuehan every day. If she didn’t say that, she wouldn’t be able to explain herself in the future.
Fortunately, South City was about to be demolished. By then, she would move to Haicheng District.
Xia Qinghuan was skeptical. Just as she was about to say something, the school broadcast suddenly rang.
“Students, we will broadcast an important piece of news now. Recently, our city’s Education Bureau held a Mathematical Olympiad. Our school’s representative team won the team gold award with the highest overall score.”
“Class One’s Jian Ai received the individual gold award with full marks. Class One’s Jian Yiyi and Class Four’s Yang Fei received the individual bronze award with a score of one hundred and seven points. Congratulations to the students who achieved outstanding results.”
“Today, during the inter-school exercise, Principal Sun will present the awards to the winning students personally.”
Jian Ai was in school. As soon as the broadcast ended, many people who knew Jian Ai couldn’t help but look at her.
Full marks?
Was this person a monster?
A perfect score for the Mathematical Olympiad?
Jian Ai was also confused. After all, this news came so suddenly that it caught her off guard.
The gold award!
Full marks!
“Oh my, Xiao Ai, you got the gold award!” Xia Qinghuan regained her senses and hugged Jian Ai excitedly.
Jian Ai was also very excited. This was the first time she had taken part in such a competition in her two lifetimes. She didn’t expect to receive the gold award.
Most importantly, she could score extra points for her examination!
The two of them returned to the classroom. As soon as they entered, the classroom burst into enthusiastic applause, scaring Jian Ai.
“Jian Ai, congratulations!”
“Jian Ai, you’re amazing!”
“You’ve really done our class proud!”
…
The students applauded and congratulated Jian Ai, making Jian Ai not know how to respond.
Her grades had always been good, and this was nothing new. However, in the eyes of her classmates in the past, that changed nothing. She was still that poor girl from South City.
However, at that moment, these people seemed to praise her from the bottom of their hearts.
