Chapter 114: Chapter 113 The Second Place Winner Emerges

Every stroke conveyed the words “indifferent.”

Chi Mingkun’s long message suddenly became useless.

He was a bit puzzled, “Dad, why isn’t sister at all curious about this?”

After all, it was related to her, and a normal person would at least be curious and ask how it was resolved, right?

Chi Changjing’s gaze was deep, and he didn’t speak.

Zhao Yuexiu scoffed, “I don’t think she’s not curious; she just doesn’t understand how serious this matter is. She’s treating it like a common quarrel.”

“Indeed…” Chi Mingkun put away his phone.

That was probably for the better, so his sister wouldn’t feel pressured after knowing the truth.

Two days flashed by in no time.

Soon, it was the third day, the time to announce the competition rankings.

Early in the morning, the classmates were excited yet nervous. Aside from those who were too poor in their studies and were just participating for the experience, everyone was looking forward to the results.

Mr. Liu Yawei soon entered with the list of scores.

Except for Chi Gui, who was looking down at his phone, everyone anxiously stared at him.

Mr. Liu Yawei didn’t keep them in suspense and read from the list, “First place goes to Chi Yan’s group.”

Upon hearing this, everyone cast envious glances at Chi Yan’s group.

However, this was expected by everyone, so they didn’t say anything and eagerly awaited the second-place announcement.

But Mr. Liu Yawei paused, “Sorry, there’s a tie for second place between two groups. The judges are currently reviewing the video footage, scoring based on the team members’ detailed performance. It will take a while to know which group it is.”

The classroom instantly filled with groans.

The suspense was unbearable!

Mr. Liu Yawei understood their feelings and didn’t waste words. He directly posted the list on the blackboard, “Here’s the ranking for the top fifty in the school. Check it out yourselves!”

Out of respect for the students’ self-esteem, the rankings beyond that were not announced.

After Mr. Liu Yawei left, the classmates all crowded over.

Ding Xuan and Ning Qiu found their group at number twenty.

They both breathed a sigh of relief.

Although they missed the provincial competition, being in the top twenty was still a respectable achievement.

They continued to look down the list, and, not finding Chi Gui’s group even after reaching the end, they felt somewhat relieved.

Thankfully they had changed groups; otherwise, they wouldn’t even have ranked at all!

Other students saw this too. Those who got along well with Chu Jia and Yi Rui felt pity for them, “You shouldn’t have switched groups. Having a school competition ranking in the top twenty would have added a lot to your CV for future interviews.”

Chu Jia and Yi Rui’s expressions were not good.

They had performed really well during the competition, but now they couldn’t even make the top fifty and felt like crying from disappointment.

Su Niannian was also somewhat downcast.

Yet, Chi Gui remained calm as ever, his head buried in an English document on his phone, completely indifferent to the situation.

Meanwhile, Chi Yan’s group had won first place in the whole school, and they had the most people crowding around them.

Hearing that Chi Gui’s group didn’t even make it into the top fifty, Chi Yan just smiled faintly, “Competitions don’t define everything. In the future, everyone can still make it to Kyoto Three-A Hospital on their abilities.”

“It’s such a pity for Chu Jia and Yi Rui…” Jiang Nuan pretended to sigh with exaggerated sympathy, “They had a chance to get into the top twenty of the whole school… So, you see, choosing the right team is the most important…”

She deliberately raised her voice so that Chu Jia and the others on the other side could hear.

The expressions on Chu Jia and Yi Rui’s faces grew even worse.

Some people laughed and chimed in, “Exactly. We should be thankful to the school for being considerate to the students. If all the rankings had been revealed, and they ended up last, that would have been so embarrassing.”

Just then, Mr. Liu Yawei walked in again, “The second place is out!”

The students immediately looked at him excitedly, “Mr. Liu, which group is it?”

Several groups from other classes had scores slightly lower than Chi Yan’s and were hoping to claim the second spot.

Mr. Liu Yawei, beaming with joy and excitement, announced, “It’s also from our class!”
