Genius Wife Is Naughty Again novel Chapter 68

Chapter 68

This year’s questions were several more times difficult than the previous year, so even Emily struggled to complete the test. There were a few questions in which she simply filled in without knowing the answers.Initially, she felt so distraught that she wanted to quit, but she knew that she couldn’t lose to Janet when the latter handed in her test paper early.The results were announced in the afternoon, so everyone in the meeting room felt nervous.Hundreds of contestants gathered in the room, waiting for the results and the ranking list to be announced.However, the host of the competition slightly trembled as he held the list in his hands. After more than ten years of hosting the math competition, he had never seen the person in first place receiving full scores. Not only that, but the winner was also a newcomer.“This time, there is someone who got a perfect score.” His voice trembled.“What? A perfect score?”“Which school is the person from?”“How did the person get a perfect score? The questions are so difficult.”The teachers and students offstage quickly discussed the matter.However, Kenny was confident that the person who received a perfect score could have been one of his students.On the other hand, Aaron felt uneasy. I can’t believe someone actually nailed a perfect score. This means that the champion this time can’t be from Star High School. After all, no matter how brilliant Emily is, it’s impossible for her to get a perfect score.The host had a look at the list before announcing the results while trembling, “The champion is from Star High School…”The moment the host mentioned Star High School, Emily immediately rose to her full height. She felt extremely happy in her heart. I can’t believe I still can get first place with such difficult questions.Aaron let out a cold grunt in Kenny’s direction. “Do you still think we won’t be in first place?”In the meantime, Kenny was left speechless. We all know she is the past champion, anyway.The host continued with his words. “The champion is… Janet Jackson with a perfect score!”“What?”Everyone looked toward Emily at the same time and said to her, “Emily, I think you better sit down. You are not the champion.”“Is she trying to be funny? How embarrassing it is to stand up by herself?”Meanwhile, she stood motionlessly, feeling especially embarrassed at the moment. How can it be Janet? Didn’t she hand over the paper early? Could it be that she copied the answers from Gordon? But there is only one champion, so that means he also didn’t get all of his answers correct.At the moment, Aaron was surprised that Janet was the champion. She actually has a perfect score! This is so awesome!Then, the host continued reading down the list. “Second place goes to Macy Bell.”As soon as Macy’s name was mentioned, Kenny felt content because she was one of his students. As expected, she didn’t disappoint.“Third place goes to Gordon Yaleman.”Kenny, who was still excited, was stoic at the moment. Damn it, I can’t believe there are two Star High School students in the top three.However, Emily couldn’t hear her name being announced for a long time, so she was getting frustrated.“The fourth place goes to Erin Sherman. The fifth place goes to…”Her name still wasn’t mentioned when the host announced the eighth place and she was about to cry in frustration. If I can’t move on to the next round, I won’t be able to participate in the answering session. By then, Janet will snatch all of the glory.“The ninth place goes to Emily Jackson.”As soon as she heard her name, it felt as though a huge rock was lifted from her heart. However, she couldn’t feel happy about it because all of the limelight was on Janet. Everyone started to forget that Emily was the champion for the past few years.Even Mindy couldn’t help but sigh. “Janet is too brilliant. Emily, your ranking is a bit low this time!”Emily was already furious about the situation and felt more upset after hearing her words, bellowing, “Are you saying that I have a low ranking? How dare you say that when you can’t even advance to the next round!”Mindy was confused, not knowing why Emily suddenly became fierce, so she stayed away by walking toward Janet. “Congratulations, Janet! Gordon, congratulations to you too!”Janet and Gordon slightly nodded their heads at the same time.While noticing Mindy’s betrayal, Emily cursed quietly, “Traitor! Damn you!”The second round of the competition was held during the afternoon. Before the round started, Aaron did some mind training for Janet and the others.“Janet, you don’t need to be too nervous. Just be yourself.” He understood that it was her first time participating in an answering competition, so she would feel nervous about it.However, her expression was calm. “I’m fine.”At the same time, Emily also came over. When she saw Janet, she held both her fists tight. This morning’s test was just a slip-up. Later on, I must perform better than her; I can’t lose to her.
