I didn’t expect Song Chenhao to be so arrogant. Does he think Ge Zeyu is inferior to him?

Indeed, in his previous life, Ge Zeyu always submitted blank exam papers, which meant that no one knew his true abilities. Later, because I complained about him, his father sent him to the army for training.

When we meet again, it will be by death. Song Chenhao dared to make this bet based on his memories from his previous life.

Although I know Ge Zeyu is very capable, I am still worried about him, after all, Song Chenhao's studies have always been very good.

"Who wants to compete with you!" I said, pulling Ge Zeyu along as we prepared to leave. "There's no need to waste your energy on someone like that."

Ge Zeyu pulled me back instantly with a forceful movement, half-circling me around.

We were extremely close, and I could almost feel the powerful heartbeat in his chest.

Before I could react, Song Chenhao's angry, provocative voice came from behind me, "Jiang Wanying, you fickle woman, are you scared now?!"

"Are you really going to protect him like this? He's a perfect match, though—one a lovesick fool, the other a good-for-nothing!"

I turned my head and saw him speaking through gritted teeth, his eyes filled with anger, like a husband who had caught his wife cheating on him.

"Don't be so self-conscious..." I was about to retort when Ge Zeyu's voice rang out above me, sounding somewhat serious.

“Okay!” he said, and immediately called the school’s academic affairs office to sign up for the math Olympiad.

Although the registration period had passed, the teacher took special care of him because of his background and immediately said over the phone that his name would be added.

Perhaps it was because Ge Zeyu displayed his privileges in front of Song Chenhao that I saw the jealousy in Song Chenhao's eyes become more and more obvious.

As Ge Zeyu and I left, I could feel the gazes from behind, staring at us for a long time.

Once in the car, I couldn't help but ask Ge Zeyu if he was really confident.

His previously lowered eyebrows immediately lifted, and he raised them slightly towards me. "You don't believe me?"

"How could that be!" Sensing the displeasure in his tone, I quickly retorted, "I know you're capable, I'm just worried about you, in case something happens."

“There’s no such thing as ‘what if’.” Ge Zeyu withdrew his gaze, a hint of youthful vigor in his eyes, and smiled. “It would be truly shameful if I couldn’t even compare to that good-for-nothing.”

The two of them had already made a bet, so I couldn't object anymore. After returning home, I dragged Ge Zeyu to start doing math Olympiad problems. However, my grades weren't good, and I didn't really understand the problems Ge Zeyu was working on. I could only help him look up the types of problems from previous competitions.

The next day at school, news of Ge Zeyu's bet with Song Chenhao about participating in the math Olympiad had already spread.

Both of them were prominent figures at school, which made this competition highly anticipated. Most people favored Song Chenhao, whose excellent academic performance was well-known, while Ge Zeyu consistently submitted blank papers.

On the day of the competition, the audience was buzzing with discussion. As soon as Song Chenhao stepped onto the stage, his classmates couldn't help but start talking.

"Young Master Ge is probably going to lose face big time this time!"

"Yes! Although I like his handsome appearance, Song, the school heartthrob, is still better at studying."

"How come these two suddenly started fighting?"

A classmate, unable to contain their curiosity, asked Xiang Jiao. Upon hearing this, Xiang Jiao immediately snorted coldly, "Not yet, because of Jiang Wanying!"

"She shamelessly pursued Song the school heartthrob before, but now that Song the school heartthrob has a girlfriend, she's started trying every means to seduce Ge Shao."

She was getting into her story when her classmate saw me coming and quickly whispered a reminder for her to stop.

Xiang Jiao turned to look at me, not only without restraint, but also raising her voice a few notches, "What are you afraid of? I didn't say anything wrong. Young Master Ge was just bewitched by him. A woman as promiscuous as him will pay the price sooner or later."

At this moment, the competition on stage had already begun, and I focused all my attention on the stage.

This math Olympiad competition is all about who can solve the most problems correctly in a short amount of time.

It takes an average person quite a bit of time to solve a single problem, but those who can participate in the Mathematical Olympiad all have some level of skill.

It seemed that my ignoring these people emboldened Xiang Jiao, who pulled Bian Jiahui over and said, "Jiang Wanying, don't you have anything to say? If it weren't for you, Young Master Ge wouldn't have lost so much face."

I snapped out of my reverie and glanced at her sideways. "Are you so sure that Ge Zeyu will definitely lose?"

"Isn't this obvious?" she retorted confidently, hands on her hips, repeatedly accusing me of being shameless. "What methods did you use to make Young Master Ge protect you like this!"

Bian Jiahui, who was standing nearby, quickly advised, "Perhaps Ge has just been hiding his true abilities!"

"You're just too weak. I heard that she was framing you at the bidding meeting a couple of days ago, and now you're still speaking up for her." Xiang Jiao's voice was a bit loud, immediately attracting the attention of everyone around her.

The people around me couldn't help but whisper among themselves. I sneered and questioned, "Innocent? Why don't you go and find out what really happened at the bidding meeting that day?"

If Xiang Jiao had put in even a little effort and done some research, she wouldn't have spoken so confidently.

So stupid, no wonder he can be completely controlled by Bian Jiahui.

Xiang Jiao's expression stiffened for a moment, but she quickly seemed to realize something. "I've already heard about the bidding meeting. You publicly accused Jia Hui of stealing your bidding documents."

"If she really did such a thing, why didn't your family call the police? How could she possibly be at school unharmed?"

I didn't know how to refute Xiang Jiao's words for a moment. Seeing that I didn't answer, her smile became much brighter, with a hint of smugness.

"Why are you silent now? You were quite talkative just now! I think you're just feeling guilty. You're making baseless accusations without any evidence, so all you can do is throw mud at others."

People around her started talking amongst themselves. Bian Jiahui stood silently in the crowd, but her face showed a wronged expression, as if she had really wronged her that day.

Just as I was about to retort, a classmate suddenly spoke up from the crowd, "The results of the math Olympiad are out, and the teacher is going to announce the first and second place winners."

As soon as he finished speaking, the teacher on the stage announced the name of the second place winner: Song Chenhao.

I looked up and saw him standing on the stage, his face a little stiff, but he quickly recovered and glanced at Ge Zeyu next to him with a hint of smugness.

After all, besides the first and second place winners, there are also people who don't even make it into the finals. He was certain that Ge Zeyu didn't make it into the finals.
