The Elite Assassin Becomes a Flat and Ugly Nerd! Chapter 385 Shan Yue's Performance

385 Shan Yue’s Performance

At this moment, Lin Xiao, who no one could find, was leisurely drinking tea in Zhang Huang’s office. The two of them obtained news from the live broadcast of the compet.i.tion on television.

“Princ.i.p.al, I followed your instructions and changed the name of the finals to Shan Yue before I left. However, I’m going to be unlucky this time. I can already imagine them looking for me.”

Lin Xiao sat beside Zhang Huang and looked sideways. “As the team leader, let’s not talk about what the teacher will think. When the students come back, they won’t criticize me directly on the surface, but they’ll criticize me behind my back.”

“Don’t worry, I know what you’re saying. Just don’t worry. I’ll settle the rest for you.” Zhang Huang chuckled and patted Lin Xiao’s shoulder. “I’ll explain all of this to everyone when they come back from the compet.i.tion. I’ll say that you’re just following my instructions, if there’s anything, they can ask me. No matter what, they can’t blame you.”

“Actually, blaming me is a small matter. After all, I’m still their team leader. No matter what, I won’t be affected too much. However, the most important thing is to see Shan Yue’s performance.”

Lin Xiao placed his hand on his chin, and there was a thoughtful expression in his eyes. “If she’s really that anonymous person and can defeat Ruo Ting and win after going on stage, then we’ll all be happy. But if she’s not, and we let her go on stage without telling her in advance, the discussion she’ll have to endure won’t be as simple as she thinks once she loses the compet.i.tion.”

At this point, Zhang Huang’s heart wavered a little. He had been trying his best to prove that Shan Yue was the anonymous person on the Internet, but he had forgotten that she was still like his biological granddaughter.

Just as Lin Xiao had said, if his judgment was wrong and Shan Yue lost this compet.i.tion that would determine the outcome, all the malicious comments she faced when she returned to school would be caused by him.

However, at this point, the arrow was already on the bow. Regret was useless. Zhang Huang revealed a benevolent smile. “I only hope my guess is right. Moreover, I believe in Shan Yue. She definitely won’t disappoint me.”

Lin Xiao only nodded slightly to show that he agreed with Zhang Huang. Since things had already developed to this point, what was left for them was to believe in Shan Yue.

Just as the two of them were talking, the whistle for the end of the penultimate compet.i.tion on the television screen sounded. Next was the Mathematics team’s compet.i.tion.

The scores of both sides were clearly written on the scoreboard. Capital University was behind Ruoshui University by one point. This meant that the outcome of the last compet.i.tion would directly determine who the champion would be.

“Princ.i.p.al, it’s time. It’s almost time for Shan Yue to appear.”

Lin Xiao’s words pulled Zhang Huang back to reality. He sobered up a little and focused all his attention on the compet.i.tion.

In the venue, the host was excited and mobilized the atmosphere. “I believe everyone must be looking forward to the outcome of the compet.i.tion now. There’s only a difference of one point between the two sides. Then, let’s wait and see who will win the laurel wreath in the end!”

In the distance, Ruo Ting slowly stood up. A powerful aura instantly enveloped her entire body, emitting absolute aggressiveness. She looked at the entire venue in the distance, all the way in the direction of the Capital University.

“Lin Xiao, we have the same opponent in the same venue. You were lucky to beat me last year, but you won’t be so lucky this year.”

Ruo Ting’s lips curled into a perfect arc. “In a year, I’ve given up everything to improve myself. I must defeat you in the compet.i.tion to prove that I’m the strongest.”

With that, Ruo Ting walked into the compet.i.tion waiting area under the gazes of many people behind her.

On the Capital University’s side, many people were still surrounding the deputy team leader to cheer him on. Although he was about to go on stage, he still had a lot of timidity and unknown fear in his heart.

However, for the sake of the school, he still decided to take on this heavy responsibility resolutely.
