“What’s going on… This girl’s background is too powerful. Even Teacher Yao is so friendly to her. I think her family probably used money to buy connections to get her into the finals!”
“That’s right, that’s right. Which family’s daughter is this? Have you seen her before?”
At this moment, the discussions of the crowd were even louder than before. Their voices were so loud that they wished that everyone in the hall would know that Mo Zhu had gotten the spot to participate in the finals through the back door.
Apart from some families with powerful backgrounds who used money to buy spots for their children, all the students present had worked hard to study and solve questions to get the spots to participate in Country N’s competition. Therefore, when they heard these miscellaneous discussions, everyone instantly looked at Mo Zhu with expressions showing their complicated feelings.
After leading Mo Zhu through the check-in procedures, Luo Nan brought the girl straight to the elevator door. When they passed by Yao Mei, the man quickly stopped them.
The reason why Yao Mei knew Mo Zhu was not only because she had performed outstandingly in the few test questions she had done in the research institute, but also because he was one of the teachers Chen Man had specially invited from Beijing to Cloud City to tutor Mo Zhu in Mathematics.
Seeing that Mo Zhu had completed everything and that Luo Nan and Li Xiao attached great importance to her, Yao Mei nodded and said with a smile, “Mo Zhu, I heard that you came here as soon as you got off the plane. You must be tired from the long journey. Coincidentally, there’s a pre-examination preparation meeting in the afternoon. Since your knowledge is so good, I think you don’t have to participate. You should recuperate in your room and rest well!”
The students might be puzzled as to why the teachers were taking such good care of Mo Zhu, but Yao Mei knew very well in his heart that they had to rely on this girl and she would decide whether they could win the first place in the Mathematics competition this time. If they did not value her and she became unhappy and unwilling to participate in the competition, then they would really have missed the chance to win the championship!
When Mo Zhu heard this, she nodded politely at Yao Kun and deliberately lowered her voice as she replied, “Thank you, Teacher. I understand.”
On the way to the room, Luo Nan and Li Xiao chattered on about many things to take note of. After instructing her to rest well and maintain a good state during the competition, the two of them went straight downstairs to settle the other students.
In the hall on the first floor, everyone had seen the scene just now. Many students had started to criticize Mo Zhu. Seeing that the teachers had arranged for everyone to share a room with another person, everyone started complaining loudly again.
“Why can that girl stay in a room alone? Why do we have to share a room with another person? We’re all participants in the finals. The teachers can’t treat us differently, right?”
“That’s right. I think there must be a deeper meaning behind the teachers’ arrangements, right? Or is this student going to accompany a certain big shot tonight…”
At this point, before he could finish, the sound of a plastic bottle being crushed suddenly came from the side.
Looking in the direction of the voice, Meng Ran was holding Jiang Yu’s hands tightly. As she comforted the girl in a low voice, she tried to restrict Jiang Yu’s hands that were about to take action on the people. “Xiao Yu, we came to Country N to participate in the competition together. At such a critical moment, endure it for a while and everything will be calm. Take a step back and it will be alright. You can’t be so impulsive because of these words!”
After saying this, afraid that Jiang Yu wouldn’t listen, Meng Ran said in a low voice, “I know that you and Sister Mo grew up together and your relationship must be very good, but we can’t cause trouble for Sister Mo at this time. It’s already very difficult to participate in the finals in a foreign country. If we offend the students who came together, these girls will definitely cause trouble for us behind our backs. The gains don’t make up for the losses!”
After taking a few deep breaths, Jiang Yu was finally appeased by Meng Ran and did not really fight with the group of gossipy women.
When Meng Ran saw this, she patted her chest in relief.
