Chapter 31

English Results

Guo Miao looked at Tong Pei and nodded slightly. She would try her best, but she might not succeed.

In the era of the Empire, more planting techniques were popularized. The medicinal strength of medicinal herbs was much more powerful than it was now, and the extraction technology was perfect.

But now, the effectiveness of these things had been reduced. If it was during the era of the Empire, she was 100% sure that she could cure Sheng Guang. But now, the possibility had dropped to 50%.

At least, there was still hope.

The few of them sat down and began to chat and laugh. The atmosphere in the room also became much more cheerful.

Guo Miao stayed in the capital for two days before returning to Haicheng.

However, this time, Sheng Guang had personally sent them over in his own private jet. He was planning to settle down in Haicheng after a few more concerts.

He had already bought a villa in White Tower Garden in Haicheng. It was close to the sea, and there was a medicinal material factory nearby. It was a very suitable place to recuperate.

After the holiday, Guo Miao returned to school.

Just as she sat down and opened her school bag, Chen Si, who was beside her, nudged her.

“Miao Miao, have you checked the results of the English competition?” Her voice was very soft as if she was avoiding something.

However, Guo Miao soon found out.

Wang Meng, who was sitting at the front table, turned around proudly and looked at them.

“Don’t tell me you don’t dare to check your results, Guo Miao?” She raised the phone in her hand. “I got 92 in the preliminary round, emerging second in the school and top ten in the city.”

That was an impressive result. If there were no accidents, Wang Meng could enter the provincial competition.

“Second in the entire school? Then, who’s first? Is it that straight-A student from Class 1?” some of the students asked.

“I don’t know who it is, but I’m sure it’s not our Guo Miao. After all, the results were out last night. Are you too afraid to check, or are you too afraid to tell us after checking?” Wang Meng sneered.

Guo Miao ignored her. She had indeed forgotten about this. After all, the difficulty of the English language competition was not worth her attention.

She turned on her phone and entered her name and exam number on the website of the English competition.

Very quickly, the ranking and results were displayed.

One hundred points, first place.

“Miao Miao, let me see!” Chen Si turned her head over. When she saw the results, her mouth opened wide.

“That’s actually 100 points. My God, Miao Miao, you must be a genius!” Chen Si cried out in alarm.

Wang Meng’s face turned red and white. She leaned over to take a look and her face turned even uglier. “It’s just 100 points. What’s there to show off?”

“You were the one who showed off first. Our Miao Miao didn’t!” Chen Si pursed his lips.

The bell rang, and the students who were watching the show returned to their seats.

Chen Cheng and Gu Ze appeared on the podium.

Gu Ze’s expression didn’t look good, and when he saw Guo Miao, her expression became even worse.

“This time, I’m here to announce that Wang Meng and Guo Miao from our class have entered the semi-finals of the English competition. The two of them are ranked first and fifth in the city respectively. Please keep up the good work. Ms. Gu will now talk about the next schedule.” Chen Cheng’s face was full of smiles.

Last time, Gu Ze had accused Guo Miao of cheating and had ridiculed Chen Cheng many times.

This time, Guo Miao had ruthlessly given Gu Ze a slap in the face. She was in an even better mood and felt that Class 10 was about to make a comeback.

Gu Ze announced the schedule with a stiff face and told Wang Meng before looking at Guo Miao, “Guo Miao, you should also prepare well. Don’t be too arrogant. If you lose the award because of your arrogance, you will humiliate the school.”

Gu Ze’s words were full of sarcasm. Guo Miao only smiled coldly. “I won’t be arrogant and complacent, but I hope that you will remember the apology you gave me at the flag-raising ceremony, Ms. Gu.”

After hearing this, Gu Ze’s expression became even worse and she hurriedly left Class 10.

Chen Cheng ignored her. She opened the book and began to talk about today’s lesson, naturally happy that her student had stood up for her.

During lunch break, Guo Miao’s phone rang a dozen times.

She was sleeping but was woken up by the vibration of her phone.

It was Wu Wei.

Wu Wei’s voice exploded in her ears as soon as she received the call.

“Master, it’s an emergency! JS has sent me a challenge!”

He was referring to the hacker group, JS. Wu Wei sent over an email with a bloody knife that had a few words written on it: “To Wu Wei, White Tower Club, 7 p.m. tonight.”

Haicheng’s White Tower District was a well-known wealthy district in Haicheng. It was located by the sea and had excellent scenery.

The White Tower Club, which was located near the beach, was a famous high-end entertainment place in Haicheng.

“They’ve booked the entire White Tower to have a hackathon with us!”
