251 251 Do You Want to Join It Together?
After Tan Rou was called away by the principal, Tan Jing became more and more uneasy. Hence, she told the teacher that she was not feeling well and wanted to go to the toilet. The teacher didn’t say anything and just told her to come back quickly.
Tan Jing didn’t go to the washroom. She just wanted to eavesdrop. However, Tan Rou and the others spoke too quickly. Before she could reach the principal’s office, Tan Rou had already returned.
Tan Rou noticed that Tan Jing was waiting for her but didn’t want to pay attention to Tan Jing. However, Tan Jing was like a dog skin plaster and insisted on sticking to her.
“Xiao Rou, what did the principal say to you?” Tan Jing asked with a smile.
Tan Rou rolled her eyes and said angrily, “What does the principal say to me have to do with you? The principal didn’t mention you anyway.”
Tan Jing’s face tightened, but she still had a smile on her face. “I was just asking. Did the principal tell you about the physics competition?”
Tan Rou deliberately said, “The principal said that this is just an ordinary physics competition. There’s no need to pay too much attention to it. You can just participate casually.”
“Did the principal really tell you that this was just a normal physics competition?” Tan Jing asked nervously.
Tan Rou smiled and said, “Of course… I’m lying to you.”
She sneered. “Not only did the principal say that this is an important physics competition, but he also said that the winner will be rewarded greatly. They can even enter Capital University in advance. It’s almost the same as what the class monitor said.”
“Rourou, will you participate in this physics competition?” Tan Jing asked again.
“What does it have to do with you?” Tan Rou sped up and left. She didn’t need to report anything to Tan Jing.
Tan Jing gritted her teeth. Why was this girl acting so arrogant?! She had to embarrass Tan Rou in the physics competition.
The two of them entered the classroom one after another. Tan Jing still remembered her excuse and did not forget to hold her stomach, pretending to be weak as she walked in.
“The principal asked you for you. Did he talk about the physics competition?” Li Li asked quietly.
Tan Rou smiled and replied softly, “You guessed it right. The principal told me about the physics competition. He also told me that my spot was internally decided. However, I still want to take the exam, so I refuse the spot.”
Li Li clenched her fists. “Yes! Even the principal trusts you so much. You must participate in the selection test this time.”
“Do you want to participate in this competition as well?” Tan Rou asked Li Li about it. Although Li Li’s results were not the best, she was good at physics. With a little guidance, Li Li might be able to get a place.
“I…”
Li Li scratched his face and said weakly, “My physics results aren’t that good. It’s hard for me to get good results.”
“Try it!” Tan Rou encouraged her. “Your physics results aren’t bad either. Even Song Lin is participating. Aren’t you going to participate? If you really get a good ranking, you can directly enter Capital University. Aren’t you tempted?”
Li Li was indeed a little tempted. “I would like to but my results are average.”
“Let’s participate together. We can study together!” Tan Rou said.
Li Li was very happy. “Alright, let’s participate together! ”
“Student Li Li, Student Tan Rou…” The English teacher on stage rubbed her eyes. “What are you guys participating in together? Why don’t you tell me about it? I would like to participate in it as well!”
Li Li blushed and stood up. “Teacher, we’re talking about the physics competition. I think…”
The English teacher looked unhappy but she did not blame them. “You can talk about the physics competition after class. This is English class now. Sit down.”
After Li Li sat down with a red face, she even pulled Tan Rou’s hand. “Let’s do it together.”
Tan Rou nodded. “Of course.”
After class, Lu Qing brought a physics exercise book over. He asked Tan Rou, “Are you going to participate in the physics competition? Do you want to study the questions together? I have a very good physics competition question book here.”
Tan Rou rejected him. “There’s no need for that. Li Li and I will do the research. It’ll be messy if there are too many people.”
Lu Qing was actually looking forward to studying the questions with Tan Rou. He had heard Tan Rou explain the questions to Li Li several times. Each time she explained the questions, she would always take a different approach and explain them in a simple and easy manner for others to understand. Many times, solving questions in competitions required such flexible thinking.
However, he didn’t expect Tan Rou to reject him. Tan Rou would rather do the questions with Li Li than discuss with him. Was he that unlikable?
Li Li saw that the atmosphere was not right and quickly said, “Lu Qing, we are both girls. It is definitely not convenient for you to join us in the discussion. The class monitor will also participate in this physics competition. Why don’t you discuss it with him?”
