The Principal glanced at Huo Yao’s receding back before he turned to the Dean. He raised his brow and said calmly, “I am 100% sure.”
The Dean was stunned. 100% certain she would get the first rank? Was the Principal that confident?
“But Yi Lianfan only lost to her by two points previously.”
The Principal smiled. “Although it was only two points, he won’t have an easy ti surpassing her this ti.”
Since she could bring many college education systems to their knees, it was no an feat to surpass her. Her level of knowledge was well beyond that of the current syllabus.
Yi Lianfan was undoubtedly a straight A student. However, the mont he encountered Huo Yao, he was destined to play second fiddle to her.
The Principal thought himself to be fortunate that he managed to convince Huo Yao to join their school. If she had entered so other middle school, he would have been having a real headache right now.
The Principal gathered his thoughts before he patted the Dean on his shoulder. “It doesn’t matter who cos first or second as long as both of them are kids from No.1 Middle School.”
“You’re right.” The Dean laughed.
“I have sothing to attend to at night. I will leave the kids in your care. Don’t let them leave the hotel unless it’s sothing important,” said the Principal as he raised his watch to check the ti.
The Dean nodded with reassurance. “Don’t worry.”

Huo Yao sat down in the corner after taking her plate.
She took out her phone as she ate.
She opened her contacts and tapped on soone called, ‘Lei’.
In a minute, she sent out a text: [My dear, shall we et in person?]
Lei Xiao was eating dinner when he received the text. His hands trembled the mont he saw the ssage, and his phone almost fell into his bowl of soup.
They had not spoken ever since she asked him about the Education Association. He had not dared to disturb her, but here she was, asking him to et face to face.
The invitation was absolutely out of the blue.
He had hinted at eting in person several tis in the past but was heartlessly rejected every single ti.
Lei Xiao suppressed his shock and hurriedly replied: [Are you in the capital?]
Huo Yao was surprised at how quickly he responded.
She typed back: [Yup.]
Lei Xiao could no longer be bothered with eating.
Instead, he stood up and walked out as he replied: [Just tell where. I’ll co over imdiately.]
Huo Yao’s hands stilled. Yi Lianfan had co over with his plate while she was typing. He took a seat right across her.
Huo Yao raised her brow at him.
In return, Yi Lianfan glanced at her calmly and said, “The Dean told to pass on a ssage. No one is to leave the hotel tonight.”
Then he lowered his head and started to eat.
“Mhm. Got it,” replied Huo Yao.
She texted Lei Xiao: [Sorry. Not now. I’m taking part in a contest tomorrow, so I have to revise tonight and don’t have ti to co out. Why don’t we et after the contest?]
Lei Xiao had already reached the door when he caught sight of her last ssage. He froze in shock yet again.
Contest?
Revision?
Could Miss Big Shot really be a student?
Lei Xiao recalled her talking about studying before as well. He was suddenly dumbstruck. It felt as though sothing in his head shattered.
After so ti, he finally gathered his thoughts and typed with trembling fingers: [Are you a student?]
