The Schoolgirl Secret Agent Chapter 851 - A Prodigy. What Else Could He Ask?

Chapter 851: A Prodigy. What Else Could He Ask?

Lawson’s full name was Charlie Lawson. He was currently being led into the judging venue by a teacher.
The students who were there to take part in the competition were astonished. For one, most of them had never met foreigners, so they could not help staring at Lawson when they saw him. Next, Lawson was considerably handsome even among foreigners, so some girls there were charmed.
Yun Jian felt the corners of her mouth twitch. Of all places, she honestly did not expect to meet Lawson here.
Meanwhile, Lawson was already led into the venue by the teacher. Just as he came close and had yet to step his foot in, he caught sight of Yun Jian. The moment his reaction caught up to his sight, he was ecstatic.
“Yun Jian!” Lawson made his way to her when he saw her. The way he had called Yun Jian was in a teasing English-accented Chinese.
When Chinese names were translated into English, they were not changed. It was only the sound of their pinyin that changed. Hence, everyone there could hear who the person Lawson was calling out for was.
In the next second, Lawson abandoned the teacher who was guiding him and ran toward Yun Jian.
Seeing that, the surrounding students, including those from Longmen Yi Junior High School and those from other schools, were shocked. Did the foreign student know someone from Country Z?
While they wondered, Lawson had gone to Yun Jian.
Seeing Yun Jian, Lawson blurted in eloquent English that the majority of those around them could not understand, “I knew you’d come! I’ve come all the way from school to look for you! Yun Jian, I want another battle with you!”
People from Country Z spoke English differently from how foreigners spoke English. Moreover, Lawson spoke fast and fluently.
Even though most people around here had excellent speaking skills, they could only figure out the general meaning. Furthermore, some of them only knew simple speaking English. With Lawson speaking so effortlessly, they could not even understand him.
Most of them then thought that for them junior high schoolers to speak to the foreigner, it would probably be a challenge even to the girl in Foreign Languages High School who was known as the “foreign languages prodigy”, Ji Xuetang.
Who was Ji Xuetang? She was a junior high schooler from Foreign Languages High School.
Everyone knew that she was a foreign languages prodigy! As for how the title “foreign languages prodigy” came about, it was because Ji Xuetang picked up foreign languages from a young age.
What amazed everyone was that while Ji Xuetang was only 16 years old, she was currently learning three foreign languages! English was her strength. Subsequently, it was impossible for a publicly known “foreign languages prodigy” like Ji Xuetang to be absent from a significant competition like this.
At the same time, a teenage girl who looked tall and had a distant sense of beauty stood some distance away. She was rather pretty with typical large eyes and small mouth but she currently had her chin tipped like she was despising everyone around her.
This was the “foreign languages prodigy”, Ji Xuetang. There was a girl who stood next to her and was asking, “Xuetang, what did the foreigner tell the girl over there?”
Ji Xuetang looked superior. “What else could he be asking? Can’t you understand such simple English?”
She tipped her chin even higher like a proud peacock. Her tone brimmed with superiority and disdain for the girl next to her. More of it, however, was her confidence that Yun Jian could not understand Lawson either.
