250 250 I Will Partic.i.p.ate
Wei Ling said, “You will definitely get good results….” The kind that would make you cry.
Li Li saw that Tan Jing was partic.i.p.ating, so she came over to encourage Tan Rou to partic.i.p.ate. “Rourou, go and partic.i.p.ate in this physics compet.i.tion too. Teach Tan Jing a lesson.”
Tan Rou had planned to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion, but after hearing what Li Li said, she felt that it was better to keep a low profile. “Even if I partic.i.p.ate, I might not be able to get a good ranking. Why don’t I just study hard and prepare for the monthly test?”
Li Li continued, “The monthly test has been postponed. There’s no rush. You can just go and partic.i.p.ate. It’s not too late to prepare for the monthly test when you come back.”
Tan Rou was about to speak when a student called her from outside, saying that the princ.i.p.al was looking for her.
“Why is the princ.i.p.al looking for you?” Li Li was curious. “He must be looking for you to partic.i.p.ate in the physics compet.i.tion.”
Tan Rou smiled but didn’t say anything. She had guessed the same.
When they arrived at the princ.i.p.al’s office, Tan Rou did not point it out first. She wanted to wait for the princ.i.p.al to speak first.
“You’re here!” The princ.i.p.al’s face was filled with joy. “Hurry up and sit down.”
Tan Rou sat down and pretended not to know anything. “Princ.i.p.al, is there anything you need from me?”
“You know that the province is going to hold a physics compet.i.tion, right?” The princ.i.p.al went straight to the point.
“Yes.” Tan Rou said, “I heard from the physics teacher just now. He said that the school is going to hold an examination. Three students will be selected to represent the school in the provincial physics compet.i.tion.”
“Are you interested in this compet.i.tion?” The princ.i.p.al asked.
Tan Rou rolled her eyes and pretended not to care at all. “It’s just a physics compet.i.tion in the province. It doesn’t have much value. It’s fine even if I don’t partic.i.p.ate.”
“Hmm?” The princ.i.p.al frowned. “Is that what your teacher told you?”
Tan Rou thought to herself, It’s probably going to be a national compet.i.tion.
“That’s what the teacher said.” Tan Rou said with certainty.
The princ.i.p.al was silent for a moment. “I guess your teacher didn’t want to tell you anything before he got the exact news. In fact, if you win this compet.i.tion, you will represent the province to partic.i.p.ate in the national compet.i.tion. If you win the national compet.i.tion, you can also partic.i.p.ate in the international compet.i.tion.”
“There’s so much more to it?” Tan Rou asked in surprise.
The princ.i.p.al said, “I have high hopes for you. If you partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion and win the prize, not only will you be rewarded by the country, but the school will also give you another scholars.h.i.+p. What do you think?”
“I’ll definitely bring glory to the school.” Tan Rou said with a smile. Of course, it would be even better if she could get the money.
The princ.i.p.al was very satisfied with her answer. “Alright, go back and prepare well for it. If you need anything, just inform your teacher.”
“Thank you for your trust, Princ.i.p.al.” Tan Rou thanked him politely.
The princ.i.p.al was looking forward to this compet.i.tion. After all these years, their school had not won many times. Ever since he took over the school, they have not been first place in any compet.i.tion. Therefore, he had his own selfish motives. He wanted Tan Rou to compete well and also wanted the school to s.h.i.+ne.
Even if the princ.i.p.al and Li Li didn’t say anything, Tan Rou would still partic.i.p.ate in this compet.i.tion. In her previous life, Tan Jing had shone brightly because of this compet.i.tion. She won first place in the province, third place in the national compet.i.tion, and then fifth place in the international compet.i.tion. Although she wasn’t first place, it was still a very good result.
After Tan Jing obtained her results, she became even more popular in school and society. Then, Tan Rou became the target of her secret torture. The more glamorous Tan Jing looked on the outside, the darker she was behind the scenes.
This time, she wanted to take all of Tan Jing’s glory and make the physics results that she was proud of to become her shortcomings.
“Alright, you’ll have one of the three spots. You can choose the remaining two for the exam.” Since the princ.i.p.al had allowed Tan Rou to partic.i.p.ate, he had to show his sincerity in convincing her.
Tan Rou didn’t want that to happen. She said to the princ.i.p.al, “For the sake of fairness, let’s just decide by results from the selection test.”
The princ.i.p.al said, “I know your strength…”
“Sir, I want to partic.i.p.ate in the selection.” Tan Rou insisted.
The princ.i.p.al looked at her with a smile. “As expected of the student I thought highly of. You’re indeed full of righteousness. Alright, then we’ll do as you say and proceed with the selection test. You have to compete well and get first place.”
After Tan Rou promised him that she would get first place, the princ.i.p.al let her go.
