In fact, she was not very sure if she would be able to rush back in time to take the exams at the end of the semester. However, she still wanted the princ.i.p.al to grant her leave, so she absolutely could not tell him that. Otherwise, he wouldnt bob his head.

If she really couldnt come back in time for the final exams, then she would cross the bridge when she came to it.

Coming back for the final exams? Zheng Anyang gritted his teeth and looked at Ye Lengan. Youre a student. Taking part in the final exams is what you should do. You want to use this to negotiate with me?

No, no. Ye Lengan shook her head repeatedly and explained, Princ.i.p.al, I really have something very important to attend to. Thats why I want to take a

leave of absence. If you dont approve my leave, Ill have to skip cla.s.s. Ye Lengan! Zheng Anyang scolded in a low voice, Are you threatening me?

How would I? Princ.i.p.al, youve really misunderstood me. Ye Lengan hurriedly explained, Princ.i.p.al, you know that Ive already learned all the lessons by myself. Therefore, even if I sit in the cla.s.sroom and listen to the teachers attentively, it will only be a waste of time. Besides, you promised me that I could take leave at any time.

Hearing her mention the deal between the two of them, Zheng Anyang felt his head hurt even more. Yes, I did give you the privilege of taking leave at any time, but you cant keep skipping cla.s.s like this! Do the math yourself. Have you spent half the time in school this semester?

He now regretted agreeing to her requests. Ever since he agreed, she took leave every few days and could rarely be seen on campus. She just came back several days ago, but now she wanted to take another month off.

Ye Lengan rubbed her nose and smiled guiltily. Princ.i.p.al, I definitely wont ask for leave again next semester.

No. Zheng Anyang refused without hesitation. Your attendance rate is too low. There arent many days left in this semester. If theres anything you need to deal with, you can wait until the holidays!

Ye Lengan was a little discouraged to see that Zheng Anyang was impervious. However, she rolled her eyes and said, Princ.i.p.al, as long as you grant my leave this time, I guarantee that I will get first place in the National Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion.

Zheng Anyang raised his head abruptly and said in a trembling voice with excitement. What do you mean? Are you sure that you can get first place in the Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion?

This was something he did not dare to imagine. All these years, Shengan High School had never won a place in the Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion. Princ.i.p.al Zhou of Capital No.l High School would mention this matter every time they met. Zheng Anyang gnashed his teeth with hatred when thinking about this, but he couldnt refute it.

But now, Ye Lengan said that she could get first place in the Mathematical

Olympiad Compet.i.tion. How could he not be excited? If the student of Shengan High School really won the Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion, Princ.i.p.al Zhou would definitely be furious.

Yes, of course. Ye Lengan nodded. Princ.i.p.al, I can sign on a military-style order now. If I dont get first place in the Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion this time, I wont be taking a day off next semester.

Zheng Anyang raised his head and stared at Ye Lengan as if he wanted to see something from her expression. However, no matter how he looked at her, Ye Lengan always looked confident. It was as if the first place was already in her bag.

Her frequent absence from cla.s.s gave him a headache. However, he had to admit that he was tempted by what she said.

After a long while, Zheng Anyang sighed. Then, as if he had accepted his fate, he said, Give me the leave slip!

Seeing Zheng Anyang relent, Ye Lengan hurriedly handed over the leave slip, afraid that the princ.i.p.al would go back on his word the next second.

After signing the leave slip and returning it to Ye Lengan, Zheng Anyang said solemnly, Ye Lengan, remember what you promised me today. If you dont get first place, dont even think about getting a day off from me next semester.

Ye Lengan waved the leave slip in her hand and smiled brightly. Princ.i.p.al, dont worry. I havent fulfilled the promise I made to you at that time! If you dont believe me, you can take a look at my result in the qualifier first!

Oh? Looks like youre very confident! Zheng Anyang said, Dont forget, if you dont get first place this time, youll still have to partic.i.p.ate in the training during winter break.

Princ.i.p.al, I remember! You dont have to remind me. Ye Lengan said with a smile, Princ.i.p.al, I want you to take a look at my score, not my ranking.

Looks like youre very confident! Zheng Anyang looked at Ye Lengan and joked, Can you get more than 90 points?

This time, in order to pick the elites of the Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion, the school spent a lot of effort in preparing the test paper. Moreover, the school even asked a professor from Capital Universitys Mathematics Department to review the paper.

It could be said that the questions in this paper were almost as difficult as those in the National Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion. If Ye Lengan could get more than 90 points, then her chances of winning first place would be higher.

Unexpectedly, Ye Lengan shook her head. According to my estimation, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be 100 points.

Those Mathematical Olympiad questions were too easy. She felt that getting 100 marks was no problem.

A hundred points? Zheng Anyang sucked in a breath of cold air. Are you serious?

Youll see when the time comes. Ye Lengan said with a smile, However, isnt it normal to get 100 marks for such an easy test?

She didnt think that the questions were difficult at all. However, what others thought had nothing to do with her.

Simple? Zheng Anyang exclaimed. Do you know what you are saying? How could the Mathematical Olympiad questions be easy? They were even reviewed by a professor from Capital University.

Is that so? Ye Lengan couldnt help but nod. She looked indifferent. I dont think its difficult.

Zheng Anyangs eyes were actually glowing when he looked at Ye Lengan. He had always known that she was talented in mathematics, but he did not expect her to be so smart. If her maths was really excellent, then there was a high chance that she would get first place in the Mathematical Olympiad Compet.i.tion.

Alright, Princ.i.p.al, Ill go back first. Ye Lengan kept the leave slip and stood up. She waved at Zheng Anyang. Starting tomorrow, I wont be coming to cla.s.s. Please leave me a message if anything happens! I may not have time to answer the call.. When I see the message, Ill reply as soon as possible!
