Chapter 163 - Just a Defeated Opponent

Upon arriving at his office, she realized that Feng Junhao was also there.

Feng Junhao wasn’t surprised to see Jiang Yu. He even made some space for her.

Zhao Jiande had brought Jiang Yu to Kong Tang. Then, Kong Tang revealed, “I called you here because of the parent-teacher conference that’s going to be held soon.

“Here’s the thing. Every time A High hosts a parent-teacher conference, they will invite students with excellent grades to give a speech on that day. Then, the speech will be broadcasted on the teaching screens of each classroom to share their learning experience with the parents.”

“This is a tradition that A High has had over the years. This time, you and Junhao will give the speech. “In order for the speech to be smooth and natural, you will need to prepare your speech in advance. If I have no objections after reading it, then you can finalize the speech.”

“Then, whether you want to read the speech or memorize it, I’ll leave that up to you because Grade 12 is very demanding. We won’t force you.”

Jiang Yu nodded to show that she understood.

Kong Tang continued, “At the same time, I may need your help during the parent-teacher conference. There won’t be too much work and it won’t be too demanding. When I have more details, I’ll let you know. Do you have any questions for now? Please feel free to ask.”

Jiang Yu asked, “May I ask if it’s only the top two in the monthly exam that needs to give a speech?”

Kong Tang replied, “Only the top three students will have the opportunity to give a speech. As for the third-place rank, it’s Jiang Wan. She took a long leave of absence but we don’t have a way to postpone the conference.”

“I understand.”

She didn’t know there was such a detail in the book. If she knew, she wouldn’t have taken first place.

How troublesome.

Since Kong Tang had already brought it up and Jiang Yu had no reason to reject it, she agreed and confirmed the time of submission before leaving with Feng Junhao.

After leaving the office, the two of them walked together for a while, but they did not say a word to each other.

Jiang Yu was heading in a different direction from Feng Junhao. When the two of them were about to part, Feng Junhao suddenly said, “Congratulations.”

Jiang Yu replied, “Thank you.”

Feng Junhao already knew that Jiang Yu was stingy with her words.

However, her unchanging attitude made him feel a little more at ease.

Feng Junhao’s heart relaxed a little. “I thought you would mock me. After all, I didn’t have a good attitude the last time we met at the Feng family home.”

He had originally thought that if Jiang Yu didn’t mind, it meant that she knew when to advance and when to retreat. She didn’t push her luck just because of one exam.

In that case, perhaps he could soften his stance first.

Then, he heard Jiang Yu say nonchalantly, “You’re just a defeated opponent. What’s there to mock?”

Feng Junhao: “…”

As expected, he was wrong. This Miss Jiang was still as arrogant and rude as ever!

Did she even know who she was talking to?

Feng Junhao wanted to suppress his anger and not argue with Jiang Yu.

However, no one had ever talked to him so rudely before. He tried to hold it in but eventually, he couldn’t anymore and burst out saying, “It’s just one test. It’s nothing.”

Jiang Yu thought for a moment and agreed, “That’s true. It’s just one test. That’s enough. I’ll let you have the rest.”

What she thought was that this troublesome matter was enough.

It was fine because she didn’t know before this but now that she knew, there was no need for her to continue torturing herself.

She didn’t have the time. In the future, Feng Junhao and Jiang Wan could happily compete with each other on this matter. She just needed to get results which are not too drastically different.

To Feng Junhao though, the word “let” didn’t sound very pleasing to his ears.
