Chapter 566  : Give a Prize Again

“The school booked a room for all of you in the hotel next door so that you are in good condition to participate in the contest. After we have lunch, go back to the hotel to have a good rest. There is no need to shuttle between the school and here,” Professor Yao said.

“My examination is at 6:30 p.m. Is this the arrangement for me too?” Chi Xuanzi asked.

“As long as you have an examination today, it is the same for you.” Professor Yao nodded. “If you don’t have any examinations left today, have lunch together first. After that, the school will transport those students back to school.”

“Let’s go. It is almost 12:30. Everyone should be hungry,” Professor Yao said and left with Tan Mo and the others.

As Hua University was where the contest was held, the school did not provide accommodations and meals for them.

However, when they went to Beijing University before, their school was never that meticulous.

The students from other schools were even more envious.

The students who signed up from other schools were especially few and a far cry from the numbers from Beijing University and Hua University.

Some schools only had less than 10 people participating.

There were even those with just one participant.

It was voluntary participation, and there were no expectations to obtain good rankings. Thus, a hotel was not booked for them, and meals were not provided for.

Professor Yao led the trio to meet up with the students who were outside the contest venue. He took all of them to the restaurant nearby Hua University where a reservation was made.

This restaurant was carefully chosen by the teacher in charge, who ensured it was clean and would not cause the students to get an upset stomach. That ensured their performance for the upcoming examinations would not be affected.

Professor Yao controlled himself very well.

It was only when he entered the room that they booked in the restaurant that happily smiled.

Tan Mo even looked at Professor Yao oddly.

What good thing had happened to Professor Yao?

He was so happy.

“It is nothing. I ordered the dishes, and they will be served shortly. All of you can sit and rest. Go ahead and eat when the dishes are served. I will go and make a call,” Professor Yao said joyously and went outside to call President Mu.

President Mu picked up the call quickly.

“President Mu, let me share a piece of good news with you!” Professor Yao’s voice was uncontrollably happy.

“What happened? What good news?” It was rare for President Mu to be confused. The results should not have been out so quickly.

Professor Yao told him about the bet between Tan Mo and Ji Jiayi.

“Hahaha!” President Mu laughed happily, and there were tears of laughter. “Although it is only admitting that we are better, when Old Shi finds about it, he probably will be very upset!”

“Good job!” Like Professor Yao, President Mu already knew the results.

How could Tan Mo lose?

It was impossible.

“Wait, let me call Tan Mo,” President Mu said. “I have to give Tan Mo some encouragement and have her do well!”

Professor Yao understood that President Mu was going to give Tan Mo a prize again.

After Professor Yao hung up the phone, President Mu called Tan Mo immediately.

Tan Mo was in a discussion with the other students about a question from the previous examination.

The students were discussing the parts that they found difficult, and Tan Mo shared the solutions.

Naturally, she shared the answer to a question from the previous examination.

Everyone realized that Tan Mo was well-versed in mathematics.

They did not expect that Tan Mo knew the answer to all the questions that they did not know.

They were enlightened by Tan Mo’s answers to the questions that they could not solve.

Even the male student who was not convinced by Tan Mo in the beginning was impressed from the bottom of his heart.

When Professor Yao entered the room, he found that the atmosphere inside was surprisingly good.

The discussion was especially lively.

Everyone’s attitude toward Tan Mo was now warm.

When he listened closely, he found that their discussion was about mathematical questions.

At this time, Tan Mo’s phone rang.

Professor Yao’s mouth twitched. He knew it must be President Mu who was calling Tan Mo.

Tan Mo glanced at the screen of her phone. Professor Yao purposely glanced at it and confirmed that it was indeed President Mu.

Professor Yao thought, ‘President Mu is especially fastidious in gifting prizes.’

Tan Mo did not pick up the phone in front of everyone. Instead, she stood up and said, “I will go and pick up a call first.”

She took her phone and exited the room.

Professor Yao nodded his head silently.

It was a call from President Mu.

Tan Mo was a low-profile little lady who knew how to deal with matters well.

“Tan Mo, I heard that you made a bet with a student from Hua University.” President Mu felt that the student’s name was not important as the student would lose to Tan Mo.

“Did Professor Yao tell you?” Tan Mo thought, ‘Professor Yao was too quick in passing on the information.’

“That is a must. This is something that would gain honor for our school, so head to tell me at the first instance,” President Mu happily said. “Why didn’t you tell me such happy news?”

‘I have yet to win, Tan Mo thought. Did President Mu have that much confidence in her?

Could it be that Professor Yao was so happy just now because of this?

“If you had suggested it, it meant that you were 100% sure that you would win,” President Mu said with a smile. “I don’t even know what reward I can give you any more.”

Tan Mo blinked, “Then, shall I lose?”

President Mu replied, “That would not be good.”

“How about this, let me think about it and tell you later?” President Mu had some plans.

It did not matter to Tan Mo.

President Mu had already given her many rewards.

After this, Tan Mo smoothly completed the remaining examinations.

The examinations ended, and the nomination list would be revealed later in the month.

Tan Mo had time again to go on dates with Wei Zhiqian.

Wei Zhiqian did not dare disturb her while she was busy with her preparation for the examinations.

Coincidentally, Wei Zhiqian had to work overtime on the day the examinations ended.

Tan Mo had not seen Wei Zhiqian for many days, and she missed him.

She could only disappointedly wait for the next day to meet Wei Zhiqian.

The date of the examination was on a national day holiday.

She was on vacation the next day.

Thus, Tan Mo went home.

Around 11 a.m., Tan Mo had showered and dried her hair. She was in her bedroom.

She was leaning against the bedrest with her iPad and was about to watch some variety shows.

She had just found the variety show she wanted to watch when she received Wei Zhiqian’s call.

Tan Mo immediately paused the video and picked up the phone in surprise, “Uncle!”

“Are you asleep?” Wei Zhiqian’s voice was very gentle in the call.

Tan Mo’s phone was against her ear, and her ear trembled.

“Not yet, I was about to watch some variety shows.” Tan Mo placed the iPad at the side and decided not to watch the variety show anymore. “Are you finished with work?”

“Yeah, you are in your bedroom, right? Go to your balcony to have a look,” Wei Zhiqian said.

Tan Mo’s heart rate increased, and she had a guess in her heart.

She quickly ran to the window and suddenly remembered something. She quickly returned to her bead and pressed the button on the cupboard at the head of her bed and opened the curtains.

She ran back to the window and opened the floor-to-ceiling window and walked to the balcony.

She saw Wei Zhiqian was holding onto his phone and had raised his head to smile at her from outside the wall of the Tan family home.

Tan Mo’s bedroom was on the second floor and was not far from where Wei Zhiqian stood.
