Chapter 2817 Getting Slapped in the Face by the Kids from the Mountains!

Cen Xiaoman glanced at Liang Hongfei, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "The children from Qunshan just asked Felinger if you were preventing Jiang Qiaoxi from playing with them. After asking, they haven't spoken to Jiang Qiaoxi at all in class."

Liang Hongfei keenly gleaned an implication from Cen Xiaoman: the children of Qunshan knew she wouldn't let Jiang Qiaoxi play with them, but she didn't think those wild children would be so obedient. She immediately frowned and asked, "Do those children of Qunshan have contact with Jiang Qiaoxi elsewhere?"

Cen Xiaoman shook her head, then said uncertainly, "The kids from the mountains have all joined the math Olympiad team, so I don't know if they've kept in touch there. I'm not a member of the Olympiad team!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Hongfei asked in surprise, "Those kids from the mountains have all gone to the math Olympiad class? When did this happen?"

Cen Xiaoman thought about it carefully for a moment before saying seriously, "It started last month."

Liang Hongfei didn't make things difficult for Cen Xiaoman anymore. She praised Cen Xiaoman a few more times and then left.

However, not long after she left, she picked up her phone to call Jiang Qiaoxi's homeroom teacher, but before she could even make the call, she hung up and decided to go to the school to talk to the teacher in person.

When Teacher Wu saw Liang Hongfei, she asked with a smile, "Jiang Qiaoxi's mother, do you want to ask about Jiang Qiaoxi's current situation?"

Liang Hongfei smiled and nodded with an elegant posture, saying, "Yes, isn't the provincial math Olympiad about to start? How is Jiang Qiaoxi's preparation going?"

Ms. Wu was very happy at this moment, and said with a smile, "Jiang Qiaoxi is in a good state now, and will definitely be able to get good results."

Liang Hongfei immediately sensed something different in Teacher Wu's words.

Previously, Mr. Wu highly praised Jiang Qiaoxi, considering him a true math Olympiad genius. He believed Jiang Qiaoxi could only achieve first place. However, today Mr. Wu only said Jiang Qiaoxi could get good results, not first place, which is clearly different.

Liang Hongfei didn't want to beat around the bush with the teacher and asked directly, "Teacher Wu, do you think Jiang Qiaoxi has a chance to get first place? Is his study habits not right lately?"

Teacher Wu knew that Liang Hongfei had misunderstood, but that was how things were, so she could only awkwardly say, "Mother Jiang Qiaoxi, math is actually a matter of talent. Jiang Qiaoxi is very talented, and winning first prize is no problem for her, but winning first place will probably be very difficult."

Liang Hongfei also wanted Jiang Qiaoxi to win the national first prize, or at least the second prize, so that he could be admitted to Tsinghua University without taking the entrance exam.

But now even getting first place in the entire province is difficult, which Liang Hongfei finds hard to accept, so she directly asked, "Isn't Jiang Qiaoxi's performance quite good? You even said he could get first place, so why has it suddenly changed like this? Has his performance declined?"

Teacher Wu shook his head and said seriously, "It's like this, our school has produced a genius. His understanding of advanced mathematics far surpasses that of Jiang Qiaoxi. Of course, that's not quite right. It should be said that the child's current understanding of Olympiad mathematics is even better than that of many Olympiad mathematics teachers. So, no matter how many times we compete, that child will definitely win the special prize or the first prize, while the other children can only share the first or second prize."

Liang Hongfei knew that Teacher Wu wouldn't lie, and she hadn't expected this. She felt this was the biggest blow she could ever receive. She said incredulously, "How could there be such a child? Was that child a transfer student in their senior year of high school?"

When Teacher Wu heard Liang Hongfei mention this, he smiled and said, "Speaking of which, you might recognize him. He's from the power plant family. His name is Wang Yue, and he's in the same class as Jiang Qiaoxi. That kid is very strong. He's helped all his classmates understand math olympiad very well. I reckon they'll all get a place in this competition."

Liang Hongfei was somewhat taken aback when she heard this; she hadn't expected it to be like this.

For so many years, she has wanted Jiang Qiaoxi to develop his mathematical talent and make up for the regret that her eldest son was admitted to the gifted youth program.

He didn't want all his efforts to go to waste, so he asked reluctantly, "Teacher Wu, can I see Wang Yue's test paper? You know I really can't believe it."

Teacher Wu actually understood Liang Hongfei to some extent, because he also knew how much hope Liang Hongfei had placed in Jiang Qiaoxi's path of math olympiad. Now that Jiang Qiaoxi was no longer the most talented one, Liang Hongfei felt somewhat frustrated.

So, Teacher Wu took out Wang Yue's test paper from the drawer and said helplessly, "This is a test paper I gave Wang Yue when he entered the math Olympiad class."

This child has multiple solutions to each problem. Based on my observation, Wang Yue's mathematical level is at least that of a mathematics PhD.

He added, fearing Liang Hongfei might not believe him, "Because there was a solution I didn't understand, I asked my classmate. He teaches math at a university, so he's more accurate in judging students' math levels than I am."

Liang Hongfei was now even more desperate!
If Wang Yue's math skills were only at a university level, Jiang Qiaoxi could still catch up with him if she worked hard. After all, previewing material is a standard practice for top students, and Jiang Qiaoxi, being a top student herself, is capable of doing that. But now that Teacher Wu says Wang Yue's math skills have reached the level of a math PhD, how exactly should Jiang Qiaoxi catch up?
Therefore, Liang Hongfei couldn't believe this fact. So after she took the test paper and said goodbye to Teacher Wu, she went to find a teacher from an Olympiad math training class that he knew, and prepared to ask the teacher to explain what was going on.

However, after Liang Hongfei showed Wang Yue's test paper to a math Olympiad training teacher she knew, she completely gave up hope.

It turns out there really is a genius among geniuses who can make her more than 10 years of hard work come to nothing.

Actually, Wang Yue did this test paper on purpose.

Wang Yue knew that Liang Hongfei would find out if they all entered the math Olympiad class. Liang Hongfei had told Jiang Qiaoxi to stay away from them, and now that he knew they were in the math Olympiad class, he would definitely put pressure on the school to separate Jiang Qiaoxi from them or transfer Wang Yue out of the math Olympiad class.

Now Wang Yue is deliberately showing off his talent in mathematics, which directly suppresses Jiang Qiaoxi. The school isn't stupid; of course they know which one to choose. If they really need to transfer people, they will transfer Jiang Qiaoxi out of the math Olympiad class.

But how could Liang Hongfei possibly prevent Jiang Qiaoxi from learning advanced mathematics?

This has been her dream for so many years!

Liang Hongfei couldn't be so domineering as to decide Jiang Qiaoxi's future. Who Jiang Qiaoxi associated with and what he did all had to be done according to her requirements, just to ensure that this year's math Olympiad genius would not encounter any accidents!

However, Liang Hongfei discovered that the person she had forbidden Jiang Qiaoxi from leaving was actually quite capable, which was a slap in the face.

Wang Yue wanted to see how Liang Hongfei would handle this situation.
Liang Hongfei is now really having a headache. The children in the mountains that she has always looked down on have actually surpassed her son.

This makes it seem so ridiculous that she brought her son from the mountains to the city.

Liang Hongfei was still somewhat unwilling to give up, so she thought that Wang Yue might only be good at math, but her son's other grades were also quite good. So when she returned the test paper, she asked Teacher Wang again, "Teacher Wu, how are Wang Yue's grades in the other subjects?"

When Teacher Wu saw Liang Hongfei mention Wang Yue, he smiled and said, "He gets full marks in every subject. He's a true genius. Several of the kids he plays with are also top students."

Especially Yu Qiao, whose grades were basically on par with Jiang Qiaoxi's, and even surpassed Jiang Qiaoxi's in the others, except for math and English.

Even Lin Qile, whose energy isn't entirely focused on studying, still manages to consistently rank in the top ten of her class. You have to understand, this is Class 18, the best class in the entire school. If she puts in a little more effort, she has a chance to get into Tsinghua or Peking University.

Liang Hongfei felt even more heartbroken after hearing this. It turned out that all the children who played with Wang Yue were doing very well academically, but she, because of her romanticism and prejudice, had brought her own child out of the mountains.

Liang Hongfei knew about Yu Qiao, who, despite having decent grades and always being far behind Jiang Qiaoxi, was now exactly the same as Jiang Qiaoxi.

When Liang Hongfei returned, she remained silent, and even seemed somewhat dazed.

After his first son died, Jiang Zheng's relationship with his wife was basically exhausted. It was only because of Jiang Qiaoxi that the couple was able to continue their relationship.

So when he got home from get off work, he noticed his wife's expression. He originally intended to ignore her as before, but he noticed that Liang Hongfei seemed somewhat lost and dejected, just like when his eldest son died.

Jiang Zheng frowned. Could it be that something was wrong with his son?
The thought of this possibility made Chiang Cheng panic!

Although Jiang Zheng didn't care much about Jiang Qiaoxi's affairs, he was still his son, his second son, and possibly his only son left in this life. So, he asked anxiously, "Liang Hongfei! What happened? Did something happen to Jiang Qiaoxi?"

Liang Hongfei only came to her senses at this moment. She turned to look at Jiang Zheng, as if she had thought of something, and asked him anxiously, "Jiang Zheng, do you know about Wang Yue, that child?"

Jiang Zheng nodded and then shook his head, saying helplessly, "You had a very bad falling out with them when you left, so after I came back from the mountains, I didn't contact Lao Lin and the others much. I only knew that Lao Wang's son and the old man's daughter came to the provincial capital. Is there something you need to see them about?"
