Chapter 450: Chapter 329: No one can stop my determination to reach you _2
Gu Li took the newspaper handed to her by Shen Yunsi, did not look at the contents, but asked Shen Yunsi with a helpless face, “Professor Shen, are you sure you want me to memorize this part?”
Seeing the trouble she was having, Shen Yunsi took delight in it and chuckled: “Well, for you, this should be a piece of cake, right? Come on, Gu Li.”
“Well…”
Gu Li hesitated for a moment and then suddenly laughed, “Alright, I’ll be the butt of a joke today.”
After saying that, she quickly skimmed the newspaper, and then handed it to Director Liang, the head of the English Department: “Director Liang, would you mind checking to see if I mispronounce any words.”
“Alright, don’t worry.”
Director Liang accepted the newspaper, looking expectant.
The other professors reacted in a similar way, sitting up straight in unison, quietly waiting for Gu Li’s performance.
Shen Yunsi moved to the side, giving Gu Li the floor, hoping to see her make a fool of herself.
Soon, Gu Li began to recite in English, not only with a standard pronunciation but also accurately covering all content.
Shen Yunsi made her memorize a part, but she managed to recite the whole article in one go.
“My God, that’s impressive!”
Director Liang’s eyes bulged, astounded and disbelieving his own eyes and ears.
How could anyone have such an amazing memory, remembering an article of at least a thousand words with just one glance?
If this isn’t a super-brain, then what is?
“Gu Li, I must vote for you.”
Director Liang, after sighing in his heart, voiced his admiration with hardly concealed excitement.
As soon as she finished speaking, a second person voiced their support: “I will also vote for you.”
“I agree.”
“I also think it’s good.”
“Not bad at all. Great personality, strong capabilities. A role model for university students.”
“Let’s settle on this. Let’s select Gu Li as the representative of Hua University students to participate in the contest.”
Everyone began to discuss energetically, and in the end, they unanimously agreed to let Gu Li represent the university in the “Super Brain” competition.
When Gu Li heard this, she was stunned and quickly refused, “I’m sorry, this competition… I didn’t plan to participate, could the professors please find someone more suited?”
Actually, her intention was only to deflate Shen Yunsi’s arrogance and make this ‘pure lotus’ angry. She didn’t expect to end up with such a huge responsibility.
She didn’t want it, she just wanted to be a happy-go-lucky person.
Gu Li desperately shook her head and waved her hands. However, the leaders of the school were not going to let this promising talent go easily.
So eventually, under their relentless enthusiasm, Gu Li was forced to reluctantly accept.
Oh how she regretted it.
Shen Yunsi never anticipated this outcome.
She had gone to great lengths to make Gu Li lose face, but ended up setting her up for success instead.
Not only did she elevate her presence in front of the school leadership, but she indirectly gave her an opportunity to gain nationwide fame.
That damn Gu Li, she was born to oppose her.
At this moment, Shen Yunsi finally understood that she was definitely manipulated by Gu Li.
Damn it, how dare she fool her like this?
As Shen Yunsi thought about it, she became increasingly angry, wishing she could tear Gu Li apart right then and there.
However, with so many school leaders present, no matter how angry she was, she had to swallow her anger and reluctantly congratulate Gu Li.
“Gu Li, you should go back and prepare nicely to face the ultimate challenge next month.”
As he left, Principal Xu reminded her.
Gu Li laughed awkwardly, holding back tears: “Alright, Principal, I’ll try my best.”
…
Walking out of the office building, both women made their way to a secluded path.
Seeing that no one was nearby, Shen Yunsi finally exploded, pointed at Gu Li’s face and cursed: “You are despicable.”
“Despicable?”
Gu Li blinked innocently, “Professor, I really don’t understand what you’re talking about? The word cheap doesn’t apply to a super cute fairy like me.”
“You – you cunning low-life!”
Shen Yunsi glared at her furiously.
Seeing her well-made-up face contorted in fury, Gu Li couldn’t help but flash a toothy smile: “Professor, women get old when they are angry, and when getting angry, women look ugly.”
“You – you damn cheap wretch!”
Shen Yunsi was so angry she wanted to slap Gu Li but her hand was caught by Gu Li’s.
Despite struggling to get free, she couldn’t. She was so mad her eyes turned red.
