Chapter 584 An Optimistic Person
Their conversation made Elise curious.
The Keller Family? Sheldon Keller? Don’t tell me that Jamie and Sheldon are related?
With this thought, Elise then secretly observed Sheldon.
Just now, her brief glance had told her that he was just another bright looking handsome boy. However, upon a closer look, she found that he did indeed look familiar. His profile, eyebrows and nose… Even his hairstyle looks like Jamie’s. But come to think of it, Jamie looks a bit more mature and manly.
Sheldon had the classic first love look of a film character in a school. Shaking her head, Elise smiled, sighing how strange fate was and what a small world they lived in.
But just after a short moment, Martin and Sophie were back with the test papers in their hands.
The duo each had a bag in their hands, with Martin holding the exam questions while Sophie was holding the answer sheet in hers, preventing any possibility of a leak.
Then, Martin found another two students to help with the distribution of the papers. While this was happening, Martin stood behind the rostrum, explaining the rules of the exam.
“The paper was designed by me. Inside, you’ll find the questions to be all from the high school physics competition, with all them being a compilation of the basic questions. It also goes without saying that they are not the same. But the steps used are similar and you should be able to score if you understand the theory.”
“The paper has a total of ten multiple choice questions, five fill in the blank questions and three questions that require calculations. The last one is an upgraded version of the competition question with scaled difficulty. It’s an added bonus question, so you can choose not to do it if you don’t know how to. Just try your best to answer all the questions first. A word of warning, though—if anyone is discovered to be cheating, you can get ready to pack your bags and leave!”
Not everyone shared the same sentiment and Elise, who calmly flipped through the paper, only thought that Martin was being loud.
The paper was about the same as what Martin had described, and it was all entry level competition questions. Anyone who had some experience in a physics competition would find this no trouble at all.
Then, the boy who was talking to Sheldon turned around and said to her, “Hey, you don’t know how to do it too, right?”
Looking at him, Elise was a bit confused by his words.
Meanwhile, the boy thought that she was embarrassed, so he reminded her, “You don’t have to be shy about all this. After all, I was also forcefully entered into the class by my father to reserve a place for my studying abroad. Just simply answer it and don’t pressure yourself too much. After all, we still have to inherit the family business, regardless if we go abroad or not. It’s just a matter of time.”
Laughing at his words, Elise replied, “You sure are optimistic.”
Knock, knock!
Martin, who had walked down from the podium without them noticing, was already standing beside Elise’s table and intentionally knocked on her table. “Haven’t you taken an exam before? No talking,” he growled.
Elise did not reply, but the boy she was talking to looked downright irritated, and he sat up straight and started to answer the questions. However, it seemed that he was not thinking when he wrote down the answers, with him already finishing the first five questions within one minute.
Analyzing the questions briefly in her mind, Elise already knew the answers, but all she did was just stare at the paper without writing anything. Thinking of how Martin had such a deep prejudice against her, she would only create more problems if she were to continue to stand out. So, her best course of action would be to reel herself in a bit.
As the saying went, the brightest stars often fizzled out the fastest. So, acting as if she was clueless, she flipped to the questions at the back. After pondering for a bit, she started to answer.
