“Xiao Rou, tomorrow is the day of the compet.i.tion with the w.a.n.g siblings. Are you nervous?” Li Li asked Tan Rou. Looking at her nervous expression, those who didn’t know better would think that Li Li was the one who would be partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion tomorrow.

Tan Rou was calmly sitting in her seat and reading an English essay. When she heard Li Li’s words, she asked, “Do you think I’ll be nervous?”

Li Li shook her head. “I don’t think you will. The w.a.n.g siblings are no match for you.”

Tan Rou told her to relax. “Li Li, don’t worry about me. Since I have the courage to challenge them, I would also have the confidence to win them.”

Li Li said indignantly, “Those siblings are really annoying. They actually spread rumors about you on the Internet. There are tons of students who are actually cursing you on the forum.”

Tan Rou tapped the table with her finger and said casually, “The more people there are, the better. Anyway, I won’t be the one apologizing publicly.”

“Yes, yes. The twins are really cowards,” Li Li said angrily. “They actually set the compet.i.tion venue in their own school.”

“I guess they just want to have the home ground advantage.” Tan Rou didn’t mind. “It doesn’t matter where the compet.i.tion is held. What’s important is whether they can answer the questions during the compet.i.tion.”

There was no cla.s.s on Sat.u.r.day afternoon, so Tan Rou and the others came to No. 46 High School early to prepare.

The princ.i.p.al followed Tan Rou and reminded her, “The Education Bureau is paying close attention to this matter. There was already a ruckus last time. This time, the Education Bureau is directly involved. If our school loses, it will have a very bad impact on you and the school.”

Tan Rou understood the pros and cons. In the previous incident, w.a.n.g Jin had spouted nonsense in the public security office. He neither admitted to his crime nor admitted that he knew the Tan family. The case had not been solved. If Tan Rou couldn’t prove her innocence this time, she might still be implicated by what happened last time.

Three cameras were arranged at the compet.i.tion venue for a 360-degree live broadcast. Those who partic.i.p.ated in the compet.i.tion had been searched clean, and there were no electronic devices on them. Moreover, they were far away from the crowd and sat in the middle of the venue, so the two sides would not have any contact.

After the host sent by the Education Bureau announced the rules of the compet.i.tion, the tiebreaker began.

“Now, please listen to the first question.” The host read the question. The questions were randomly drawn, and no one knew who was the one who set the question. The questions were only read once. If the partic.i.p.ants could not remember them, they would have no other choice but to give up.

“Alright, let’s begin.” The host signaled for them to write their answers on their answer boards.

After Tan Rou heard the questions, she immediately answered them and wrote the answers in a few minutes. Their answer boards were connected to the computer, and every single word would be recorded by the computer. The entire process would be monitored, so they would not have the chance to cheat. However, the answers they wrote could not be seen by each other. Only the audience outside the venue and the audience in the live broadcast room could see them.

While w.a.n.g Shu and w.a.n.g Xin were recalling the data, Tan Rou had already solved the question.

The host glanced at the w.a.n.g siblings and reminded them, “There are still three minutes left for the answer. Please hurry up.”

The more anxious a person was, the easier it was for things to go wrong. The w.a.n.g siblings did not remember the data very well, but when they were writing, they accidentally pressed the erase b.u.t.ton. The answer was erased before getting submitted, causing them to score 0 for the first question.

The host said, “Unfortunately, you won’t be able to get any scores for this question.”

w.a.n.g Shu couldn’t stand it anymore. “Please let us write it again.”

The host did not want to break the rules for anyone. “Sorry, the time for this question has pa.s.sed. You will have to answer the next one.”

“Sir, please give them another chance to write again then.” Tan Rou twirled her pen. “Otherwise, even if they lose, they won’t admit that they’re not strong enough.”

The host asked for permission and once he was given the green light, he said to the w.a.n.g sibling, “I’ll give you five more minutes.”

This time, w.a.n.g Shu and w.a.n.g Xin wrote faster and finished the answer within five minutes.

Li Li, Lu Qing, and Xu Yan were watching from below the stage. After seeing their answers, they quickly worked out an answer as well.

“The w.a.n.g siblings got it wrong.” Lu Qing said directly, “They missed a value just now. It was already wrong the first time they wrote it down. The steps that they wrote the second time are exactly the same as the first one. They probably didn’t hear the value correctly.”

Li Li also solved the question. “Although it took me a longer time to solve it, my answer is the same as Rourou’s..”
