Zhang Qiang laughed and began to cry.
Li Su was stunned for a moment before she patted Zhang Qiang's shoulder.
”Come, let's do another one.”
Zhang Qiang shook his head.
”Don't you just want to know why I don't want to do it? I'll tell you now. ”
”I don't want to know.”
Li Su sighed.
”Everyone has their own secrets. If you force others to reveal their secrets, it would be meaningless.”
”No, you have to.”
Zhang Qiang pulled Li Su back.
”You must listen!”
”Alright, alright, I'll listen.”
”I, Zhang Qiang, have been a good boy in everyone's eyes since I was young.”
”I have never dropped out of the top three in an exam. I am number three in every age evaluation.”
”In junior high school, I am an influential figure in the entire school. As long as I take the exam, the first place has never fallen into the hands of others.”
”I graduated from junior high. I was accepted into the best high school in our province.”
”When I reached high school, my brilliance became even more dazzling. There were all sorts of competitions in the country. As long as it was about exams and I was there, I would pick any of the medals.”
”As I've won more and more awards, my pride has also grown. I think that no one is my match.”
”There was once a teacher from another school who disliked me and challenged me. I accepted it without any hesitation.”
”In front of more than three thousand people, that teacher was directly defeated by me. He's an insane person, and even now, he's still a fool.”
”I don't have to listen to classes, I can just walk out of the school. I can even refuse to give face to the principal. I can do whatever I want.”
”Because they can't lose me. With me, they can be at ease in the promotion rate. With me, they can get more funds from the provinces, from the country.”
”But one day I met her.”
”Her name is Xie QiuRong, she is my tablemate. But I never put her in my eyes because her studies are not as good as mine and she can't pass the exam. ”
”Actually, her studies are also very good. She was always second in her grade, but because of my existence, she was completely suppressed.”
”That day, she stopped me at the school gates and asked if I wanted to compete with her.”
”Of course, I rejected her at once, but her words were enough to ignite my temper. ”You just can't,” she said.
When Li Su heard the word ”no”, she couldn't help but shiver.
”What are you competing against her for?”
”She was competing with me in a way I've never seen before. She was accompanied by a colorful set of diagrams, all of which were lines. There were even some numbers on them, and she gave me a formula.”
”She said she would admit to being my girlfriend as long as I did it. I agreed without thinking, not because she was my girlfriend, but because I wasn't going to be defeated. ”
I stood there for a day and a night. She stood with me for a day and a night.
”I failed, that was the first time I failed since I was born. ”I don't know how I got back to the dorm, nor do I know what I did. All I could think about was that I failed.”
”I spent a week in a daze. I didn't eat nor did I drink. If it wasn't for the teacher finding out that I was being sent to the hospital, I would already be dead.”
”On the first day that I woke up, I received a letter. It was from her. She didn't say anything. There was only one question. There were three words. You can't.”
”I ran out of the hospital like crazy, came in front of her, and threw that piece of paper directly at her face. I know what she wants to do, but I want to fight for it.”
”What does she want to do?”
”Because the college entrance exam is about to start. She wants me to focus all of my energy on this question to delay my progress.”
