Chapter 139: Stop Talking Bulls.h.!.+t. Which One of You Three Wants To Go First?
Ye Fan acted as if he was terrified that Qiao Qing would change her mind due to what others had said about her. He quickly dashed off the stage.
Huffing and puffing, he said, “Qingqing, because I didn’t get your approval, I didn’t dare ask you to reveal your skills. However, it seems like you don’t want the City of Brisk humiliated, so that’s great! Ignore what those people just said, those people don’t represent the City of Brisk.”
He didn’t give Qiao Qing a chance to react before he dragged her up on stage.
Luo Chen had a dumbfounded look on his face. Qiao Qing and the Go G.o.d had a good relations.h.i.+p?
He felt a dangerous crisis.
The city authority frowned and was about to step up and stop this when Yang Lianfeng blocked his way.
“h.e.l.lo, I’m a City of Brisk high school teacher. Since the damage is done for the City of Brisk’s reputation, why don’t we risk it and believe her this once?”
He paused for a moment, then continued, “Last time, Qingqing placed first in the all-rounded exam. Those who don’t know her think it’s luck, but the teachers who knew, know that she truly has the intelligence and the capability. Plus...”
He left the most impactful statement for last, “Her father is Qiao Zibo.”
This authoritative figure widened his eyes. Without any more doubt, he returned to his seat.
“My G.o.d, brother Yang is a beast!” Hou Zibin muttered, “Xu Ningning, it’s seriously enough with you! People outside our cla.s.s talk behind sis Qiao’s back, that’s whatever. But you speak poorly of people from your own cla.s.s too? Are you even from Cla.s.s 22?”
Xu Ningning responded, “Why does she get to represent Cla.s.s 22? Why must everyone from Cla.s.s 22 believe her and revolve around her? Aren’t I speaking of the truth?”
“She did test well that once, but does that mean her Go skill is good as well? What I heard was that she wanted to look good for Jiang Yi, her fiancé, and tried to study Go for years, but she wasn’t even able to get to the beginner level!”
Jiang Yi, who was name-dropped, never even looked over. His gaze focused on the girl that Ye Fan was dragging along.
He remembered the mysterious person Ye Fan hinted about last time, and that cla.s.sic question, “Do you know who figured out the Exquisite Unrivaled Positioning?”
Jiang Yi’s heart couldn’t help but thump uncontrollably. If... if she was the one... then didn’t he...
n.o.body else here knew just what a turmoil his mind was going through.
Hou Zibin heard Xu Ningning’s words and couldn’t help but pout.
“You jealous mouth and face sure are ugly! Sis Qiao isn’t good enough for Jiang Yi? I say it’s the other way around!”
“As a member of Cla.s.s 22, I don’t ask you to trust her. I just ask you to not drag her down. After all, we don’t need you to believe in her, we believe in her!”
Then, he looked forward to the stage and screamed, “Sister Qiao! You go! I believe in you!”
Everyone else from Cla.s.s 22 also cupped their mouths and shouted through their hands, “Sister Qiao! Do your best! You’re the best!”
There were even some people who didn’t know her joining the cheer.
Sitting by Jun Yexuan’s bed, Mu Jinghang, who was watching all this through the live stream on the laptop, also began to clap excitedly.
“Sister-in-law sure looks cool! This bunch of kids is now working together towards a common goal. And their spirits make my blood boil!”
Who knew that right after he said that, he would turn around and find Jun Yexuan’s gloomy face. “Who’s the guy that dragged her by the hand and ran up?”
Mu Jinghang immediately cursed silently.
Third brother, must you focus on the least important matter of every situation?
After a round of cheers, Ye Fan and Qiao Qing arrived on stage.
Looking at the three people who were cleaning up and were getting ready to leave, he said, “Don’t leave yet. Here’s someone who wants to challenge you.”
Lu Jiahao didn’t even put down his bag. He immediately walked up to Qiao Qing, “Your father is Qiao Zibo?”
Though Qiao Qing wasn’t as tall as this guy, her demeanor was many times tougher than his, “Stop talking bulls.h.!.+t. Which one of you three wants to go first?”
