Chapter 7-The Mathematical Olympiad
Translator-zyzy Editor-Aru
Jiang Ren and his friends always played with virtual reality games, that year virtual reality wasn’t a thing yet. But these rich kids knew how to have fun, they always played intensely in arcades.
Jiang Ren changed into his black armour suit, a few girls gathered to look.
His silver hair was eye-catching, paired with a great figure. He was tall, with firm muscles.
Jiang Ren with his gun over his shoulder headed first into the field.
He Han entered for barely one minute and was already shot in the heart by a virtual gun. The big screen showed the silver-haired teen hiding in the bushes, his calm look, made a few spectating girls scream out loud.
Jiang Ren, after killing his first opponent, killed Fang Tan too.
Fang Tan sighed, and defeatedly exited the match to spectate.
He Jun Ming heard a few gunshots and was frightened out of his wits. He didn’t know who died, all he could do was try his best to hide, but as he looked up, he saw Jiang Ren’s emotionless face.
Jiang Ren raised his hands, He Jun Ming: Don’t, god damn it, we’re teammates Boss Ren!”
Jiang Ren shot him a few times.
On the big screen showed big bloody words———died.
Fang Tan only then realized something was off, He Han also said:” Is boss Ren not in a good mood?” Wasn’t he fine when we came out just now?
Fang Tan suddenly thought of Meng Ting.
He made a scary guess:” Don’t tell me, Jiang Ren……”
“What?”
“It’s nothing.”
Fang Tan changed the topic: “ He just got out of a relationship, that’s probably why he’s in such a bad mood.”
He Han grabbed his hair: “ He was serious with Sheng Yu Qing?”
He Jun Ming came out almost at the brink of breaking down: “ God damn it, I’m not playing anymore, not talking about getting slaughtered in there, but Jiang Ren was crazy enough to kill his own teammate.”
He just finished complaining, one girl raised her sight and looked at him, they met eyes, she giggled as she blushed.
The girl is pretty, He Jun Ming could feel his face blush there.
He walked over, his hand on the bar counter: “Pretty, want to come over and play together?”
The girl nodded, and talked to him for a while, and asked: “Where’s Jiang Ren?”
He Jun Ming oblivious: “Changing.”
As the girl came over, He Han whistled at her, and softly told Fang Tan: “She’s probably here for Jiang Ren.”
Fang Tan glanced towards her: “She’s okay, can’t compare with Sheng Yu Qing, but still okay.”
As soon as Jiang Ren walked out, he saw He Jun Ming waving at him. A skinny fair hand from across passed him a lit cigarette as soon as he sat down.
He lazily looked up and was met with Lu Yue’s excited eyes.
He Han said: “Tsst, You know what to do, pretty girl.”
Jiang Ren put on his jacket, but he didn’t accept it.
The girl felt slightly awkward but quickly came back to her senses: “Hello Jiang Ren, I’m Lu Yue, from Seven High Grade 8 Class 1.
She’s one grade higher than Meng Ting, she’s her senior.
Jiang Ren leaned against the sofa and looked at her, his silver hair covered with a layer of sweat after exercising: “From Seven High?”
Lu Yue was surprised that he responded to her, and nodded in response.
“Are all students in class 1 top students in your school?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Ren suddenly got up and approached her. His height domineering, up close he had a different kind of tough manliness, Lu Yue couldn’t help but blush.
“Seven High Class 1, how do you guys view someone like me from LiCai?”
Lu Yue froze for a while, and responded: “It’s just different schools, we’re all equal.”
Jiang Ren laughed: “Get lost”
Lies.
He sat back, Lu Yue bit her lips, she didn’t understand how her answer offended him, and could only leave. He Jun Ming looked at her figure from the back, and whispered to Fang Tan and the rest: “I think Lu Yue’s quite pretty and elegant.”
Jiang Ren was looking across the battlefield forest, his gaze didn’t land anywhere.
Fang Tan didn’t speak, abruptly remembering that Meng Ting was also in Class 1. Grade 7 Class 1.
He suddenly made a very brave guess.

Meng Ting didn’t meet Jiang Ren for a good few days, she was relieved, thinking that a lot of things were different than her previous life. In her last life, she and Shu Lan were exposed for switching places during the performance and panicked.
As the rumour subsided, her eyes also recovered, the doctor said she didn’t have to wear those glasses to school anymore.
Her eyes only recovered for a few days, something happened to Shu Lan, she was dumped with paint all over her in the girl’s toilet.
Meng Ting didn’t even have the chance to go to school, she already had to go to LiCai beside to fetch her sister.
She wrapped Shu Lan with her jacket, as she escorted her outside, she coincidentally met with Jiang Ren.
That day, the sky was clear, she looked pretty and innocent, her skin fair and pearly white.
He only got a glimpse of her side profile, his gaze dazed for a second.
As she passed by him, Jiang Ren suddenly smiled: “Hey, you’re the pianist from that day?”
She looked up and met with his black pupils.
Meng Ting knows that her sister liked him, and thought he was mocking the both of them. So she replied softly: “Sorry, but could you let us pass?”
After a while, he smiled: “Sure.”
That was their first time meeting.
Meng Ting always thought that he was easy to talk to, only until experiencing his arrogance, she only realised how wrong was her perception of him.
But this life, they met too early, her eyes haven’t recovered yet.
Meng Ting thinks that Jiang Ren hates her now, she felt relieved by the fact.
These few days, she was busy preparing for the Mathematical Olympiad.
Zhao Nuan Cheng looked at her practice questions after class, and couldn’t help but ask her: “Aren’t you tired, Ting Ting?”
Meng Ting shook her head, $8000, she wasn’t tired.
Liu Xiao Yi from behind was munching on biscuits, she shared one with Zhao Nuan Cheng as she overheard the conversation, and said: “I know that Meng Ting is quite good, but I heard that Lu Yue is also participating. Every year, she’ll win first place.”
Zhao Nuan Cheng heard of Lu Yue: “The one from Grade 8?”
“En, and she’s quite pretty.” Liu Xiao Yi got excited, “I heard from my cousin, that she’s on good terms with Jiang Ren.”
The classroom bustled, Zhao Nuan Cheng with her eyes wide open: “Really, is it true?”
“How can it be fake, 2 days ago, people saw them walking together.”
“Wow so exciting, Jiang Ren just broke up with Sheng Yu Qing.” Now everyone gathered to gossip.
Zhao Nuan Cheng looked back at Meng Ting.
Meng Ting was drawing a fine line on a piece of white paper with a ruler, her long eyelashes looking down, without saying a word.
Zhao Nuan Cheng whispered: “Ting Ting, you aren’t interested in these.”
Meng Ting smiled: “Yes.”
The Mathematical Olympiad was in November, on Thanksgiving.
The school organised the first round of competition, Meng Ting successfully got in. The second round was held in the city centre. As Lu Yue recently became the talk of the town, everyone was following up with this year’s Mathematical Olympiad.
Some people even said that Lu Yue was better than Sheng Yu Qing.
A scholar in school and with good looks, the nationwide primary and secondary schools Mathematical Olympiad was quite tough, but Lu Yue got first place every year, quite a lot of people were impressed by this.
However, as someone cheated last year, this year, the organizers decided that everyone competes fairly, it was the first time the competition was held outdoors, the questions were pinned on a board. Everyone felt that this new way of competition was quite interesting, everyone wanted to spectate.
“There’s nothing more to say, Lu Yue would win first place too this year. Even so, to impress Jiang Ren, she’ll do her very best.”
In less than 2 months time, almost everyone in Seven High knew who Jiang Ren from LiCai was.
Handsome, rich and wild, every factor was a hit point.
Meng Ting also heard these, but she didn’t take it personally, she practised for very long, every day besides going to classes, eating and sleeping, she spent the rest of her time on this.
Just to win and get that cash prize, it’s just that the first place would get a much, much bigger cash prize.
The day before Thanksgiving was a Friday, Meng Ting met Jiang Ren and his friends at the bus stop.
They seemed to have skipped class to race in the mountain tracks.
He was driving his convertible, and occupied the bus lane, the students that were waiting there all looked at his direction.
Jiang Ren looked towards her direction, Meng Ting hid behind the bus stop sign.
At this moment, He Jun Ming scrolled down his car window, and whistled: “Lu Yue.”
Meng Ting looked back, Lu Yue as expected was standing there.
Lu Yue walked over and greeted them: “He Jun Ming…… Jiang Ren, hello.”
He Jun Ming said: “I’ll fetch you home.” If this group of people weren’t picking on people, they were actually quite courteous.
Lu Yue hesitated: “I have a Mathematical Olympiad competition tomorrow, the competition starts quite early in the morning, I’m heading to the hotel near the competition venue.”
The hopeless student He Jun Ming, his mathematics got only a few marks, Mathematical Olympiad was too high of a reach for him, as he listened, he said: “So cool.”
Lu Yue’s gaze couldn’t help but land on Jiang Ren, she smiled happily: “I’ll get first place and prove to you guys.”
Jiang Ren didn’t answer her and looked towards the bus stop sign at the back.
Meng Ting was quietly standing there.
It was like that night as she saw him and Sheng Yu Qing, she seemed slightly awkward, but wasn’t very bothered by it, it was just that her personality was naturally shy, and accidentally stumbled upon couples acting sweet.
His hand rested on his car window, slightly distracted.
He thought of the night at Little Harbour where he saw the blurred outline of a pair of pretty hazel eyes, the feeling after looking at it only once and his heart tingled and pumped, until now, he was still reminded of that feeling.
Meng Ting didn’t bring along her walking stick, her eyes were slowly getting better, it wouldn’t hurt as much as usual, and naturally, she didn’t need to close her eyes so often anymore.
Autumn in November, she wore a white knitted sweater inside, outside was still Seven High’s old fashioned school jacket.
Further down was a simple pair of sneakers.
The shoelace interlaced and tied tightly because her eyes weren’t doing well, a lot of the people around gave her weird stares, but she didn’t care.
Meng Ting’s long hair was tied up into a ponytail because she waited quite long for the bus to come, her bangs softly moved along with the wind.
That gave off a pure and elegant vibe that was hard to describe.
She was hugging onto a book.
Jiang Ren’s vision was tremendously good, due to many years of slacking off in school.
He could see that it wrote 《 Mathematics Olympiad Encyclopedia 》on the cover.
Meng Ting noticed his gaze but didn’t know what he was looking at. She hugged the book even tighter.
Jiang Ren suddenly turned and asked Lu Yue: “What time is the competition tomorrow?”
Lu Yue, stunned for a moment, replied: “Tomorrow morning at 9.”
“Where is it?”
“City Centre Feng Hua Street, at the art centre.”
Jiang Ren h’m in response, he didn’t say anything else and drove away.
He Jun Ming found this odd: “Boss Ren, are you going to watch tomorrow?”
He smiled: “I’m going.”
To be shameless.
