133 Butterflies In Her Stomach
“No, I can’t be distracted. I still have the most important thing to do at the moment,” Shan Xing muttered. She quickly took a few deep breaths to calm herself down as she imagined what might happen during the interview later so that she could adapt.
“How will he interview me? Will he get a simple understanding, or will he really give me questions?” For a moment, several possibilities surfaced in her heart.
Shan Xing began to pray uneasily. Although she was a little afraid of being exposed, she still had the mentality of being lucky and prepared to brace herself.
At this moment, the door opened and closed. Sun Ling, who pushed the door open, gave Shan Xing a fright.
“Mom, can’t you be gentler? You scared me to death,” Shan Xing said with disgust.
“I’m sorry, baby. I was too excited at the thought that you were about to be accepted by the Capital University. I didn’t know what kind of milk tea you liked, so I bought the most expensive one for you.” Sun Ling quickly handed the milk tea to her daughter ingratiatingly.
While Sun Ling and her daughter were still talking, the WeChat icon on the computer suddenly flashed. As expected, it was a message from the boy just now. Shan Xing hurriedly opened the chat window.
“Hello, my name is Lin Xiao. I’m the person in charge of this interview.”
A line of words came into view. Shan Xing shouted excitedly at Sun Ling, “Lin Xiao? Isn’t he the famous question-solving god on the Internet? He’s actually the one who interviewed me!”
“What god?” Sun Ling was confused, but Shan Xing was already excited.
The God of Question Solver, Lin Xiao, was the idol of many people. Occasionally, she would look at the solution posts Lin Xiao had posted online. She did not expect Lin Xiao to be so handsome and fated with her!
For a moment, Shan Xing’s heart raced.
Before Shan Xing could react from the identity of the interviewer, Lin Xiao sent her a second message. “Can you make a video call now?”
At this moment, Shan Xing fell silent again. After a mental struggle, she finally agreed to this request.
“Beep beep…”
As the video call was picked up, a handsome face entered the eyes of Shan Xing and Sun Ling. He had fair skin, a straight nose, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through everything.
Lin Xiao smiled and said, “I’m very sorry. After all, the title of ‘Mathematical Genius’ is related to the free admission to the Capital University. Many people want to impersonate that person. Just in case, I hope you can understand.”
“I understand. The real can’t be faked. My daughter is a math genius,” Sun Ling said with a smile. She didn’t know that Shan Xing was already very nervous and was only pretending to be calm.
“Hello, are you Shan Xing? The person on the Internet who the netizens call a Mathematical Genius and a cold God of Studies. We spent a lot of effort to find you. Fortunately, we didn’t miss you.” In order to liven up the atmosphere, Lin Xiao deliberately winked and said friendly.
“That… That’s right. I am.” Shan Xing tried her best to calm down. In order not to be seen through, she quickly picked up the milk tea she had just bought on the table and took two sips. Then, she nervously took out the draft paper she had prepared for Lin Xiao to see.
Clearly, as an interviewer representing the Capital University, Lin Xiao was not so easy to fool. He had long known that this draft paper had been circulated online. Anyone could print it out as evidence that they were the Mathematical Genius. Therefore, just a draft paper could not explain the problem substantively.
“Is there any other proof that you’re the ‘Mathematical Genius’? This draft paper has long been circulated online,” Lin Xiao said immediately.
Just as Shan Xing did not know how to answer, Sun Ling shouted, “What proof do you need? My daughter is so outstanding. Let’s see who dares to pretend to be my daughter.”
It was unknown if it was Lin Xiao’s sixth sense or the girl’s unusual nervousness in the video, but Lin Xiao was telling himself that this person was very likely an imposter.
