Chapter 343 - 343 Cooperation
343 Cooperation
Seeing this, Tang Hui smiled in satisfaction. She had achieved her first step and shook Xu Lu’s outstretched hand. At this point, the cooperation between the two of them was officially established.
After Xu Lu said goodbye to Tang Hui, she immediately chased after Lin Xiao and Shan Yue. After circling twice, she finally saw the two of them on a hidden bench in the forest.
Jealousy instantly erupted in her heart. She had never come to such an ambiguous place alone with Brother Lin Xiao. They even specially found a place with almost no one around to sit. Shan Yue clearly wanted to seduce Lin Xiao.
At this moment, Xu Lu recalled that Tang Hui had just said that Shan Yue had an unclear relationship with many men. At the thought of this, Xu Lu confirmed her thoughts even more. Shan Yue was an out-and-out prostitute.
Lin Xiao, who was sitting, did not notice Xu Lu hiding in the corner behind him. However, Shan Yue had long sensed it, but she did not expose her directly. Instead, she wanted to see what tricks Xu Lu wanted to play again.
“Shan Yue, actually, I didn’t come to look for you for anything important.” Lin Xiao’s handsome side profile was faintly visible under the cover of his hair. “You should know that you were supposed to be in the chemistry team for the National High School Competition, but in the end, you were placed in the math team.”
“I saw the news sent by the school, but I don’t have any doubts about this.” Shan Yue clicked her tongue slightly, her tone indifferent. “Actually, for me, it doesn’t matter if I participate in the competition with chemistry or mathematics.”
As soon as he said this, Lin Xiao could not help but wonder how confident Shan Yue was to say such a thing. Now, even Lin Xiao, who had begun to doubt Zhang Huang’s plan, began to wonder if Shan Yue was that anonymous person.
Shan Yue watched as Lin Xiao fell into deep thought and realized that she was being too arrogant. “Senior Lin Xiao, don’t think too much. After all, I’m only going to broaden my horizons. I don’t have to go on stage. It naturally won’t affect anything.”
Shan Yue quickly made up an excuse to try to bluff her way through.
Lin Xiao smiled slightly in confusion. “Actually, it’s because the chemistry team is full and there’s no place for you to participate. And the mathematics team happened to have an extra seat, so they naturally arranged for you to be in the mathematics team.”
“Then I don’t have to worry even more. If I remember correctly, Senior Lin is the leader of the National Mathematics Team.” Shan Yue looked sideways and smiled. “With you in charge of the Mathematics subject, I’m completely confident. In your competition record, I don’t think you’ve lost to other schools.”
Faced with Shan Yue’s praise, Lin Xiao scratched his head in embarrassment. “Although you say that, it’s all thanks to everyone’s joint efforts. After all, I can’t win the title of the number one university in the Federation alone.”
“Actually, I know very well that with my current status, I shouldn’t be qualified to participate in the competition.” Shan Yue’s cold face was filled with calmness. “It’s all because Grandpa Zhang specially arranged for me to be in that group.”
“Actually, you don’t have to think too much about it. Since the principal made such an arrangement, he must have his own reasons.”
Just as Lin Xiao was about to continue talking about Zhang Huang’s lifelong pursuit, Xu Lu, who was behind him, could not stand it anymore. She could not tolerate Shan Yue being alone with her favorite man.
Xu Lu deliberately made some noise and ran past the two of them, pretending to have just passed by. She happened to stop in front of them and interrupted what Lin Xiao was about to say.
“Brother Lin Xiao, why are the two of you here? Could it be that you’re talking about some shameful secret?” Xu Lu said sincerely in a half-joking tone.
“Xu Lu, don’t misunderstand. There’s no shameful secret.” The smile on Lin Xiao’s lips deepened. “Recently, the name list of the national university competition has been released. I’m explaining her grouping to Shan Yue.”
“Ah, I know that list. Brother Lin Xiao, you have to help Shan Yue when the time comes. She’s a new student who just came to school and is studying chemistry. She’s different from us who study mathematics. If she really has the chance to go on stage, it’ll be so awkward if she doesn’t recognize a single symbol. Others will think that everyone in our school who studies mathematics is like Junior Shan.”
