Li Tao choked for a moment and could not find a rebuttal for a long time.

He deliberately left a flaw because he did not want others to really think that his strength was inferior to a girl’s.

At this time, he was convinced that he had lost. He could not say it out loud, and his pride and self-esteem would never allow it.

Even if he lost to Yan XI, he would not be convinced. He felt that if it was not for the fact that he was caught off guard by the change of topic, the result of his all-out fight might not have been certain.

In the end, he could only vaguely say that he had used the wrong words. Then, he was covered up by the host who had saved the scene, barely maintaining the peace on the surface.

As long as one was not a fool, one could see that Li Tao was guilty and stubborn.

The audience was speechless. This person had problems of his own, yet he had the nerve to criticize others in a sarcastic manner.

Fortunately, Yan Xi directly retorted back. Otherwise, many people would have been misled, causing Xie changze to be filled with unnecessary suspicions.

This act of catching a thief came at the right time. He was really shameless.

But then again, was there something wrong with Chen Xiangxiang, who had been pushed to the third place?

Today, the trending search had even praised her for her beauty, kindness, and versatility. Now that she thought about it, she really had to be wary that this was capital brainwashing.

After all, Li Tao had always been very strong and looked down on the other contestants, but he had publicly expressed his goodwill to Chen Xiangxiang several times.

Could it be that he had been seduced by Chen Xiangxiang and did something rash to go easy on her?

Chen Xiangxiang felt the unfriendly gazes from the crowd, as if she had been stripped naked.

She looked at Li Tao with some resentment. Although she really hoped that he could help her win that round, she absolutely did not want it to be this way.

Even if the other party was to clap the lamp after she finished her answer, it would still be better than now.

If it was not for the fact that he had slapped the lamp first to make her mind blank for a while, she would not have needed such a long time as 15 minutes.

She was afraid that others wouldn’t know what she had said. She had made it so obvious that it would cast a shadow over her third place.

The reputation points she wanted would probably be greatly reduced.

When the host thanked the partners, the audience began to leave.

The only thing that Chen Xiangxiang was glad about was that the site was relatively strict, and the audience wasn’t allowed to bring their phones in.

The program team also would not cut the argument just now into the main film. It could be considered as barely maintaining her reputation as the third runner-up.

—

After the competition ended, Yan XI and Xie Chang cooperated and accepted the interview.

Considering that their friends were still waiting, the two of them spoke concisely and left immediately after they finished speaking.

Li Weiran was waiting for the two of them at the door with a group of children.

Lu Qingming said, “It’s already past ten o’clock. There probably won’t be any flights at this time. Why don’t we find a hotel to stay for a night and stroll around the capital tomorrow?”

Xi Yan said, “That’s not good. Are you trying to skip class?”

He had been studying hard during this period of time. He was no longer the rich young master who had been instigated to skip class with a weak will.

Qiao Qian said, “Yes, we have less than a month before the college entrance exam. We must not skip class.”

The third-year high school students always remembered the students and wanted to stroll around. Wasn’t this a waste of time and life! !

Li Weiran looked at the flight information. “There’s a flight. The red-eyed flight is at twelve.”

Lu Qingming:”…”

The rebellious flame had not even appeared when it was extinguished. He felt stifled.

Yuan Zhu brought Yan Xi and the other two to meet up with them. He was shocked to see so many students here.

However, he was still quite happy. There was no doubt that Shengyang High School was the biggest winner tonight.

He had already posted the news in the school’s official group. Many teachers were throwing flowers and congratulating them. It was a joyous scene.

Chen Xiangxiang’s mathematics teacher was also praising: [ previously, you guys insisted that Chen Xiangxiang’s chances of entering the top three were very low. Now, didn’t she come back with a third place? Her ability has been seriously underestimated. ]

The group was silent for a moment. For a moment, no one answered.

Jiang Chenggong: [ no, she already got a third place. Isn’t that enough to prove her ability? ]

Jiang Chenggong: [ you guys can’t deny a student’s results because of prejudice, right? And the incident last week, she was completely innocent. ]

He had been holding back this matter for a few days and wanted to clarify it.

When he saw Chen Xiangxiang at school yesterday and found out that she was called here to lecture, Jiang Chenggong was furious.

A good student was misunderstood like this, yet she had to console herself that she understood what the school meant.

The school had really overcorrected this time.

Jiang Chenggong: [ I feel that since she has won honor for the school, the school should apologize to her for misunderstanding her the other day, and even publicize her honor. ]

The girl was sensitive and sensitive. He was afraid that Chen Xiangxiang would break down after being talked to by the school several times, which was why her mid-term exam results fell last time.

Encouragement at this time was especially important. It just so happened that she had won the honor again.

Yuan Shu: [ Old Jiang, I feel that it’s one thing and another. Moreover, it seems a little inappropriate to publicize the honor. ]

He had also met with the leading teacher of imperial capital high school. The other party was almost driven mad with anger, accusing them of not being fair in their victory.

If it wasn’t for Li Tao’s sensuous move, imperial capital high school would at least be able to take the third place. It wouldn’t be completely disgraceful.

There were also people who said that Holy Sun High School didn’t care about martial virtue and actually took the top three places. They were greedy and shameless.

If he had won this openly, he wouldn’t have been afraid of others gossiping and would have retorted on the spot.

But he didn’t dare now. As long as one wasn’t blind, they would know that there was something fishy about Chen Xiangxiang’s win, and even Shengyang High School wouldn’t be proud of it.

The next day after he went to work, Yuan Zhu reported the situation of the competition to the principal.

The school finally decided that it was better not to mention Chen Xiangxiang’s honor in this competition.

However, Yan XI and Xie changze, these two deserved to be the first and second place.

Although based on the confidentiality of the signing with the program team, it could not be publicized now, but the school could still decide on the rewards.

In any case, there was nothing else at Shengyang High School, it was just that they were rich and overbearing.

On Tuesday, Yan Xi was notified by her class teacher, Ye Qing, that she would receive a bonus. She thought for a moment and asked Xi Yan, “Brother, do you have any gifts that you want?”

Xi Yan looked up blankly. “Gifts? I don’t need gifts.”

He had never lacked for material things in the past. Recently, Yan Xi had banned his pocket money for a period of time, so he felt that life was quite enjoyable.

In any case, the eldest young master did not have to worry about food and clothing. He had cars to send him everywhere, so he had no place to spend money.

In addition, he had been focusing on his studies recently, so he really could not think of any gifts that he wanted at the moment.

Xi Yan thought about it. “Can I treat Lu Yang and Fu Mengjia to a meal to thank them? They’ve helped me a lot in my studies.”

Yan Xi was often not in the classroom after class. She had her own matters to attend to, so most of the time, Xi Yan would ask Lu Yang and Fu Mengjia directly if he had any questions.

The atmosphere in the three-person study group was pretty good. If it wasn’t for Fu Mengjia’s efforts infecting Xi Yan, Xi Yan sometimes felt that he might not be able to change some of his bad habits from the past.
