You are like the warm sun

Chapter 94 Mathematical Olympiad
early morning.

A drizzle started to fall, and Tang Wan and Shao Zhouci entered the classroom again on time.

Today is Chinese morning reading.

The classmates in the class have already made sporadic reading sounds.

In the past, they certainly wouldn't have been so self-aware, but today, the homeroom teacher was standing on the podium. She was listening to the sparse voices from below with her arms folded across her chest, a serious expression on her face, clearly somewhat dissatisfied.

Tang Wan didn't expect the teacher to come so early today to supervise the students' morning reading.

Under the teacher's gaze, she calmly grasped the shoulder strap of her backpack, quickly walked to her seat, put down her backpack, and began to look for her Chinese textbook.

Gu Jiajia, who was reciting her lessons, held her Chinese textbook in front of her and leaned over to whisper to her, "Teacher Zhu came five minutes ago. She told us to review the required classical Chinese texts from the first four units and that she would conduct spot checks during class."

Tang Wan blinked in surprise, "So many?"

She found the textbook and opened it.

In the first four units, there are eight compulsory classical Chinese texts, and each one is very long.

"Yeah, it's so annoying. I almost forgot it..." Gu Jiajia wanted to continue talking to her, but out of the corner of her eye she saw the head teacher walk down from the podium and walk towards them. She quickly fell silent and pretended to read aloud, "It's September, the third autumn!"

Teacher Zhu Zhen walked over to their table, tapped Tang Wan's desk with her fingers, and said to her, "Tang Wan, after morning reading, go to your math teacher's office. He wants to see you."

Tang Wan was a little confused.

What did the math teacher suddenly want to talk to her about?

She nodded obediently: "Okay."

After the morning reading, Tang Wan closed her textbook, drank some water to moisten her dry throat, and then got up and went to the math teacher's office.

Standing at the open office door, she saw many students inside, including Zhou Zhenjun, the top student in the grade. They were all gathered at the desks of their respective math teachers, discussing something. Tang Wan raised her hand and knocked on the door. A teacher standing by the door said, "Come in."

She walked up to her class's math teacher and asked, "Ms. Liang, are you looking for me?"

"Ah, right, right," an old teacher who was buried in her desk writing lesson plans raised her head, adjusted her glasses and looked at her, "Logan, right?"

"Ah."

Teacher Liang handed her a table and said, "Take a look at this first."

Tang Wan took it in confusion, and then found that it was a registration form for the National Mathematical Olympiad.

"This Mathematical Olympiad is jointly sponsored by renowned universities across the country. It's very prestigious. Winning first prize in the Olympiad will guarantee direct admission. I have a recommendation for you. I see you've been doing quite well in math lately, making great progress, especially with over 140 points on the last monthly exam. Do you want to give it a try?"

After saying that, he drank a sip of wolfberry chrysanthemum tea and waited for her answer.

Tang Wan felt a little surprised.

After pondering for a while, she asked, "Is Nanjing University on the list of recommended schools?"

Zhou Zhenjun, who was sitting at the desk next to her, raised his eyebrows when he heard her words and couldn't help but look at her.

Teacher Liang recalled and said, "There should be. Please wait a moment."

He remembered that Nanjing University was one of the best universities in the country.

Teacher Liang muttered to himself as he searched for materials on his messy desk. In the end, he couldn't find any, so he had to borrow a copy from the math teacher of Class 1 at the next desk.

Wearing glasses, he searched from top to bottom with the list of universities and soon found it. "Oh, Nanjing University is here!"
