Days flew by rapidly.
Soon, the day of the National Chemistry Competition arrived.
The exam venue was not too far from Imperial Capital High School, so the chemistry teacher decided to have the three competitors meet directly at the exam location.
Zhao Sen and Yuan Xinlin arrived an hour early.
The chemistry teacher occasionally glanced at his watch, then looked up at the bustling traffic.
As time drew nearer, his brows furrowed.
Why did he look so worried and distressed?
Because Su Yan had not yet arrived.
Finally, with just ten minutes left before the exam began.
A taxi stopped next to the exam venue.
The car door opened, and Su Yan, carrying a bag, stepped out from the car.
Following her, another young man also got out.
Jiang Ran, with his well-proportioned figure and tall stature, coupled with his handsome looks, lazily smiled at Su Yan.
Even at the examination site, he attracted quite a few gazes.
"Do your best."
His cool lips moved slightly as he spoke.
Su Yan nodded earnestly.
"Hmm"
He couldn’t help but reach out and ruffle her hair.
Their intimate gestures were clearly seen by the three people in the distance.
The chemistry teacher, now frantic, didn’t care about whatever ambiguous relationship Su Yan had with Jiang Ran.
As long as she was here for the exam, that was enough.
Yet Yuan Xinlin, standing behind the teacher, tightly clenched his pencil case.
In his heart, he believed that Su Yan actually liked him.
As for why Su Yan was so intimate with Jiang Ran, it was only because she was pressured by Jiang Ran and had no choice but to comply.
Once the exam was over, he would express his feelings to Su Yan.
By then, he believed, Su Yan would definitely agree to keep her distance from Jiang Ran.
As he pondered this, Su Yan walked towards them.
Jiang Ran leaned against the taxi door, lazily watching Su Yan’s figure from behind.
Soon, the bell rang for the candidates to enter the exam hall.
Su Yan and the other two entered the exam venue.
After another ten minutes, the exam papers were distributed.
The chemistry scratch paper was placed under her exam papers, never being taken out once from beginning to end.
While most candidates were still flipping through the exam paper to get an overall idea,
she had already started solving the problems one after another.
Fifteen minutes later.
Su Yan put down her pen and looked out the window.
After waiting a moment, she stood up.
The teacher, seeing such a quiet girl coming over, looked puzzled
"What’s the matter, student?"
Su Yan blinked and said,
"Teacher, I’d like to submit my paper."
As her words fell, all the students who had been deeply engrossed in their work looked up in shock at Su Yan.
Fifteen minutes? Finished?!!
The shock was self-evident.
Everyone who participated in the Chemistry Competition was among the best students of their respective regions, so it was impossible for a fool to be mixed in.
So the only possibility... was that Su Yan was that rare genius that made others jealous.
The students who had just been focusing on their papers momentarily became nervous.
All being top-notch students, this inevitably sparked a comparative spirit.
But now, being shown up like this, was truly hard to swallow.
Su Yan, however, didn’t care about these things. She handed in her paper and walked out under the gaze of the teacher and everyone else.
A voice rang in her ear
"Ding-dong, congratulations host for completing the random task. You have earned one wish opportunity."
Su Yan listened, a bit puzzled,
"A wish?"
"Yes, host. You’ll know once you complete the task. Keep it up!"
