Sir, You Don’t Know Your Wife Chapter 69
I’m fine with anyone taking first place, but it can’t be Janet.
There was still ten more minutes before the competition started. For the next round, there would be an answering session.
Every student would have a buzzer on their table and the quickest person to give the correct answer upon pressing it would receive one point. However, if the answer was wrong, a point would be deducted from the contestant and awarded to the rest of the contestants. The fastest player to reach 5 points would automatically become the champion of the National Mathematics competition.
At the same time, the teachers and the judges would sit below the stage.
After sitting on her seat, Emily glared at Janet with hatred.
Janet was in first place during the first round, so she was placed in the eye-catching center position.
On the other hand, Emily was placed on the far side of the row and there wasn’t even a spotlight shining on her. I must win this. I can’t lose.
All the other contestants had also looked at Janet, but they were praying not to be badly defeated by her. After all, no ordinary person could produce a full score in a competition like the one they were in.
They knew that today, they were destined to be defeated completely by Janet
Not long after that, the competition started and a relatively easy question appeared on the big screen.
‘Point A is located at the upper reaches of the river while Point B is located at the lower reaches of the river. Ship A departed from Point A while Ship B departed from Point B and two ships are heading toward each other. From the start of December, the two ships are given new engines to increase their speed to 1.5 times their initial speed. On December 6, the current of the river is now twice as fast as its normal speed. So, how much has changed between the point the two ships meet with the point they meet during December 2?’
All of the contestants had received training before, so it wasn’t a difficult question to answer, but they still needed time to solve it.
The cameras in the competition swept through the contestants who were focused on solving the questions. Everyone was exceptionally focused except for Janet, who closed her eyes after hearing the question, as if she wasn’t in the mood to answer it.
All of the teachers below the stage shook their heads, glancing at her disappointing expression. After all, she was the one who had received first place during the first round in the afternoon, so they were baffled by her attitude toward the competition.
Below the stage, Kenny sneered at Aaron. “Oh my, it seems that your student is asleep. How can she not know such an easy question?”
In the meantime, Aaron was so frustrated that he wanted to rush onstage and wake Janet up himself.
After two minutes, someone finally pressed on the buzzer.
It was Gordon and he quickly wrote his answer on the answering machine.
