After hearing Princ.i.p.al Zhous words, Zheng Anyangs heart skipped a beat. However, he maintained a calm demeanor. While we are teachers, we cant interfere too much in the students affairs. As for the difficulty of the questions, it varies from person to person. Some find them difficult, while others may find them easy. It depends on the students abilities.
When he heard that the questions were very difficult, he felt a bit uneasy. It wasnt that he didnt believe in Ye Lengans abilities, but Ye Lengan had turned in her paper quite early this time, which made him feel somewhat uneasy.
However, in the end, he chose to trust Ye Lengan. It wasnt for any other reason, but the confidence Ye Lengan displayed seemed genuine. Besides, he was well aware of Ye Lengans abilities.
It seems that Princ.i.p.al Zheng has a lot of confidence in your students, Princ.i.p.al Zhou nodded and said with a smile. l just hope that the student wont disappoint you.
Well know the results shortly, wont we? Zheng Anyang also smiled and said, 1 just hope that when Princ.i.p.al Zhou learns the results, you can face them calmly.
Naturally, Princ.i.p.al Zhou said confidently, with a hint of pride on his face. Youre aware of Li Quan from our school, Im sure. Hes exceptionally talented in mathematics. I believe you also know that Capital Universitys Mathematics Department has already reserved a spot for him. Its a bit of a pity, though.
This year, hes in his senior year, the last chance for him to bring honor to Capital No. 1 High School.
When Princ.i.p.al Zhou mentioned Li Quan, Zheng Anyangs mouth twitched slightly, and he didnt say anything more.
At that moment, a person emerged with a red list and affixed it to the notice board. Clearly, this was the result of the Mathematical Olympiad compet.i.tion. The champion would soon be revealed.
Upon seeing the red list, many people swarmed to it, eager to be the first to
know the results. Zheng Anyang and Princ.i.p.al Zhou, as school princ.i.p.als, couldnt join the crowd. Instead, they stood a short distance away, waiting for their school representatives to inform them of the outcome.
In just a short while, Zheng Anyang spotted Qian Tong hurrying over with an excited smile on his face,
Seeing the excitement on Qian Tongs face, Zheng Anyangs heart eased. Just from Qian Tongs expression, he knew that the result was as they expected.
The thought of outperforming Capital No. 1 High School this time couldnt help but make his heart race.
Princ.i.p.al Zhou, however, remained as steady as a rock, evidently not believing that Shengan High School could surpa.s.s Capital No. 1 High School. He believed it was probably because Shengan High School had performed well that Qian Tong was so excited.
Princ.i.p.al, Princ.i.p.al, first place! Qian Tong rushed over to Zheng Anyang, unable to contain his excitement. This time, the first place goes to Ye Lengan, its Ye Lengan; she secured the first place.
Really? Upon receiving a confirmed answer, Zheng Anyangs previously high- strung heart gradually relaxed. He tried to suppress the excitement inside, but his smile gave him away. Princ.i.p.al Zhou, what a pity! I thought that Li Quan from your school would win the champions.h.i.+p for the third consecutive year. I didnt expect that in the final year, our schools student would actually surpa.s.s him. Its a real shame.
Princ.i.p.al Zhous expression wavered as he asked with doubt, Is the first place really from your school this time? Could you have made a mistake?
Princ.i.p.al Zhou, rest a.s.sured, Qian Tong a.s.sured him, patting his chest. Ive double-checked it several times, and its Ye Lengan from our school. As for Li Quan from your school, hes in second place.
This a.s.surance was like a sharp arrow piercing Princ.i.p.al Zhous heart, causing his expression to turn somewhat ugly.
If he was confident just moments ago, he was now feeling quite frustrated.
At this point, Zheng Anyang continued to drive the knife into Princ.i.p.al Zhous heart. Princ.i.p.al Zhou, I think theres something you dont know! The first place this time, Ye Lengan from our school, is the same one who turned in her paper after only half an hour..
