From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 185
Chapter 185: What’s the Secret?
Jian Yiling looked at the two of them skeptically.
“Jian Yiling, tell us the truth!” Liu Wen interrogated. “Your grades have improved so much recently. What’s your secret method of studying?”
“Yeah! Tell us the truth!” Hu Jiaojiao seconded.
When faced with these two ‘menacing interrogators’, Jian Yiling pondered for two seconds before she replied:
“Nah. It’s just that I remember and understand the content now.”
Jian Yiling spoke the truth.
However, this reply made Hu Jiaojiao feel incredibly sad for a moment. Why couldn’t she remember the content she read? Why couldn’t she understand the content?
“What about the tutor that you hired a while ago? Was he or she good at tutoring? Did they teach you a lot?” Liu Wen questioned.
“Yeah, he was good.”
Jian Yiling recognized Qin Chuan’s ability.
Although she hadn’t carefully listened to his explanations, she couldn’t deny his skills.
“Oh! Then it’s really the tutoring!” Hu Jiaojiao cried out.
Liu Wen continued to question Jian Yiling about her tutor, “What’s your tutors’ name? What does he do? Where can I find one?”
Jian Yiling told Liu Wen the information about her tutor, “His name is Qin Chuan. He’s currently studying at Hengyuan University.”
As soon as Jian Yiling finished her sentence, Liu Wen and Hu Jiaojiao both looked at her in surprise.
Wasn’t that the handsome guy who had just come to their school to give a talk?
“Oh, everything makes sense now. No wonder your grades improved so fast. Your tutor is amazing.” Liu Wen lamented.
Hu Jiaojiao’s eyes started to have stars in them again. “Oh my god, your tutor is Qin Chuan? I’m so jealous! No wonder you weren’t interested in him at all when he came to visit our school that day! You probably have looked at him enough when he tutored you!”
Hu Jiaojiao and Liu Wen were both envious of Jian Yiling having such a tutor.
At this moment, Wang Xiangchong walked over, “Do you really think that she got better after being tutored? Someone already filed an objection to the organizer. They asked the organizer to review Jian Yiling’s results.”
Although Wang Xiangchong hadn’t participated in the chemistry competition, he had still heard about its level of difficulty.
The top student in their year had only come tenth place. How could Jian Yiling possibly come first?
“Wang Xiangchong, that’s not very nice of you to say. Jian Yiling is one of our classmates. It’s an honor for our class that she won the competition.” Liu Wen said quite seriously.
“Honor that someone attained by cheating and improper means is not honor. It’s only a shame and disgrace.”
Wang Xiangchong spoke with confidence. His voice was loud and clear.
“Wang Xiangchong, you don’t have any proof. Don’t talk nonsense…” Hu Jiaojiao puffed up. She was once again enraged by Wang Xiangchong’s words.
“We’ll find proof once the results of the investigation come out. Furthermore, I think someone here should know whether or not there’s an issue with her results. I don’t think you should be jumping the gun like that.”
After Wang Xiangchong finished his sentence, he walked away again.
However, Hu Jiaojiao was incredibly displeased with Wang Xiangchong’s attitude. She started to mutter: “Why are you looking down on others? Even if someone’s grades are bad, they can improve… This is just hidden talent and potential!”

In the Chemistry Office Building at Hengyuan University
The organizer of the chemistry competition had borrowed the office building at Hengyuan University.
The organizer was a middle-aged man who was in his early forties. He wore a suit and gave off a scholarly vibe.
There was a chemistry competition examination paper in front of the middle-aged man. The name of the student that owned the paper was Jian Yiling.
Most of the questions in their chemistry competition were beyond the scope of the high school syllabus. As a result, it was incredibly difficult for an average high school student to score well.
