Chapter 469: Another Fellow-Victim
Huo Yao thought hard but could not remember who Cheng Jie was. She shook her head. “No, I don’t.”
Yi Lianfan’s lips opened up in shock. “He stood third during the National Quiz Contest, but something happened to him, so he didn’t finish the contest.”
“Are you saying that Cheng Jie was the one who challenged me?” Huo Yao instantly realized why he suddenly brought up Cheng Jie.
Yi Lianfan nodded. “Uh huh.”
He paused before talking further. “Cheng Jie is crazy about Math quizzes. He has partic.i.p.ated in countless contests and is very talented in the subject.”
Although Huo Yao was the champion in the International Quiz Contest, the subjects were more generic. Hence, Huo Yao might not be able to outdo Cheng Jie during the Math League since the latter was a king of Math quizzes.
Yi Lianfan felt this way about Huo Yao because even though she scored full marks in Math during the last monthly test, it was not at the same level as the quiz.
“Don’t underestimate him. Since he challenged you, he must be prepared. These test papers will do you good,” added Yi Lianfan.
Huo Yao nodded. She glanced at the test papers and suddenly asked him. “Are you taking part in the Math League too?”
Yi Lianfan did not know why Huo Yao was asking this, but he nodded and replied. “Uh huh.”
Huo Yao slapped the table and said, “Good. In order to show my appreciation for your concern, I decided to give you something. Good luck with the quiz. Give me your address.”
“Huh?” Yi Lianfan was stunned. He did not quite understand what she meant by this.
Yi Lianfan was at a loss. “Why do you want my address?”
Meng Ying was writing the test paper when she heard their conversation. She suddenly turned to look at her desk buddy, oddly.
Was Huo Yao trying to give away more test papers?
The last time Huo Yao asked Meng Ying for her address, Huo Yao sent her a box of test papers.
Meng Ying chewed her pen. However, she suppressed her urge to speak up. She should not be the only person suffering the trauma of receiving a huge box of revision material.
Huo Yao raised her brow slightly as she looked at Yi Lianfan. Instead of replying, she asked him. “Shall I send it to Old Mr. Yi’s place?”
Since Min Yu had taken Huo Yao to Old Mr. Yi’s place previously, she could roughly remember his address.
Yi Lianfan looked at her even more perplexedly. However, he ended up giving Huo Yao his current address.
Huo Yao typed his address down and sent it to Song Ning. She asked her mother to help send something and told her to use the same-day delivery before she put her phone away.
“All done. You will probably find out what I sent when you get home. You don’t have to thank me.” Huo Yao smiled at him as though she had done him a huge favor.
Meng Ying was certain now that Huo Yao had just sent a huge box of revision material to Yi Lianfan.
Meng Ying shook her head. She looked at her fellow victim with a sympathetic knowing look on her face.
Yi Lianfan detected Meng Ying’s looks. An ominous feeling inexplicably rose in his heart.
Yi Lianfan narrowed his eyes. He recalled what his grandfather had told him to do, so he pulled out something from his pocket and placed it on Huo Yao’s table.
