A moment later, Chu Ning appeared in Lin Hao’s office.
“Chu Ning, two days ago, the school told me that you have already returned the one million yuan. What’s going on?” Lin Hao asked with a smile.
“It’s natural that I should return the money as soon as I have it. A person must have the spirit of a contract, right? Can I still go back on my word?”
Chu Ning was a little dumbfounded. She knew the school’s intention. In fact, the school did not care about the one million yuan. They did not even hope that she could return it. If Chu Ning did not return the sum that she owed the school, she would use other means to double or more than double the amount to make up for it in the future.
Chu Ning understood this very well. Moreover, she would not take advantage of it. Although a million yuan was not a small amount for an ordinary person, Chu Ning did not care for it!
“It’s not that you can’t. Chu Ning, it’s your prerogative.” Lin Hao looked at her and said with a faint smile.
“No, I can’t afford this privilege. Tell me, Mr. Lin, you didn’t ask me here just to talk about money, right?” Chu Ning suddenly asked.
“Yes, that’s right. When the physics teacher was in class, he should have told you that the national physics competition will be held soon.” Lin Hao restrained the smile on his face and said seriously.
“Yes, he mentioned it.” Chu Ning nodded. The main reason Lin Hao had asked her to come over was to discuss this matter.
“Then, do you have any confidence in winning the prize?” Lin Hao looked at Chu Ning and asked carefully.
“Let me think about it.”
Chu Ning carefully weighed it in her heart. If there was only one person who won the first prize, she had a very high chance of winning, but she couldn’t be 100% sure. Because this was a national competition, there might be a genius who suddenly appeared.
However, to Chu Ning, the second place was guaranteed. As for the third place, Chu Ning disdained to take it.
She did not even bother to take a look at the Excellence Awards.
To her, the second place was guaranteed, and she would strive for the first place.
“I’m confident.” Chu Ning nodded.
“That’s great! Chu Ning, since you’re confident of winning the Excellence Award, the school actually hopes that you can go further and win the third place. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you can’t win it, as long as there’s an Excellence Award.”
The form teacher, Lin Hao, thought that that was what Chu Ning meant. When he mentioned the word “third place,” he even snuck a look at Chu Ning’s expression and reaction.
“Huh?” Chu Ning was a little puzzled.
“Is the requirement so low?” Chu Ning thought to herself.
“Chu Ning, you also know that although this Excellence Award is rare, there are still students in Jingyuan High School who can win this honor. However, the third place is rarer. Jingyuan High School has been established for so many years, but only one third prize has been won. Therefore, the school hopes you can restore its glory.”
Lin Hao obviously misunderstood Chu Ning’s thoughts, and he explained helplessly.
“No, Mr. Lin, I know. I mean, is the school’s requirement so low? Is third place enough? Do you dare to be a little bolder and aim higher?”
Chu Ning wanted to laugh. She thought that she had to get the Gold Award, which was the first place. If that was the case, it would still be a little difficult. Chu Ning did not dare to guarantee that she could do it.
In the end, after having such a lengthy discussion, the school had only hoped that she could get the third place.
She really looked down on the third place.
“Huh? What did you say?” This time, it was Lin Hao’s turn to be puzzled.
“How about this, Mr. Lin, I promise you that I will at least get a silver, which is the second place. It’s hard to say for the gold, but it’s not impossible to compete for it,” Chu Ning said indifferently.
“Chu Ning, you… aren’t kidding me, are you? Do you know how many people will participate in this national competition and how many geniuses will compete together? Yes, in our school, no, it should be in our city, you can be said to be number one, but our province has more than ten cities! And there are more than thirty provinces in the country. Chu Ning, if you want to win in this level of competition, the difficulty level is unusually high.”
Lin Hao was shocked by Chu Ning’s confidence. He hurriedly explained to Chu Ning.
“I know, Mr. Lin, but I have the confidence to do so. If you are not sure, tell the school that I have no problem winning the third place and have a chance of competing for the second place.”
Chu Ning looked at the bewildered Lin Hao and could only say this.
“Chu Ning, if you can win the Silver Award, then there’s no doubt that Jingyuan High School will be famous in the entire province A, and you will have the absolute credit and the greatest contribution.”
Lin Hao thought for a while before saying this.
