A couple of days later, the results of the city competition were announced.
The teacher announced the competition results in a small group chat.
In past years at their university, Xiao Yu was the only one selected for the national competition and the only one to win an award, but this time was different—Ji Yuqiao had been added.
Her score ranked exactly tenth in the city, right at the cutoff for selection, allowing her to represent their school in the national mathematics competition.
The teacher, thinking of the additional achievement he had gained this year, was visibly delighted.
On the day Xiao Yu and Ji Yuqiao went to receive their certificates, he shook with excitement, his smile so broad it wouldn't fit in his mouth.
Xiao Yu glanced at Ji Yuqiao next to him, who was taking pictures of her certificate with her phone, a gentle smile tugging at the corners of her lips, her eyes glistening.
His expression turned slightly bewildered.
