Mr. Sun even had feelings of comradeship toward Tan Mo.
“Mr. Sun, Ms. Hu.” Tan Mo came over. Using the simplest words, she did not hide and told them what Mr. Zhu told her.
Tan Mo did not say that she wanted to resolve the matter.
After all, she had never shown her capabilities in mathematics.
If she said it now, Mr. Sun and Ms. Hu might not stop her, but they certainly would want an explanation.
Once they heard about the matter, Mr. Sun and Ms. Hu. did not care if they could help, but they bad to see the situation.
They decided immediately. “We will go over now.”
At the same time, Mr. Gu also received the news sent from Jiaoyuan Second High School.
Of course, Hua University sent over happy news.
Mr. Gong from Hua University’s Department of Mathematics sent news to Mr. Gu and invited Mr. Gu to watch the grand event of how the students from Hua University’s Department of Mathematics were crushing those from Beijing University.
Mr. Gu was still in the principal’s office. His phone also rang. He was informed of the latest news.
Mr. Gu saw that Mr. Sun and the others were preparing to leave Jiaoyuan First High School and asked, “What is it? Are you not setting up a booth over here?”
“We have something to do first,” Mr. Sun casually said.
“You want to go to Jiaoyuan Second High School, right?” Mr. Gu gloated, “We also happen to want to go over, let’s go together.”
Once Mr. Sun heard that, he knew that he wanted to see how Beijing University made a fool of itself.
“Zhang Zhipeng, why not go with us to have a look at Jiaoyuan Second High School?” Mr. Gu asked. “There are also people from Hua University and Beijing University there.”
Students were free to move around in school today. There were no restrictions on their movements.
The school had informed the students and parents that the different universities would set up reception desks on-site at the schools. Everyone was welcome to visit any of these schools.
They could come and go at any time.
Mr. Sun knew Mr. Gu’s intentions.
If he had invited Zhang Zhipeng for him to see Beijing University make a fool out of itself, he might change his mind.
However, Mr. Sun did not stop Zhang Zhipeng from going. He only said, “Student Zhang Zhipeng, if you want to go, then you can go in our car.”
How could be let Zhang Zhipeng sit in the same car as Hua University?
What if the people from Hua University brainwashed him on the way?
“I want to go.” Zhang Zhipeng also wanted to see the standard of Beijing University’s and Hua University’s Department of Mathematics.
He had heard that the people from Beijing University’s and Hua University’s Department of Mathematics had gone to Jiaoyuan Second High School to recruit the top science scholar in Jiaoqi Province, Lin Jingyuan.
He also wanted to have a look.
“Alright.” Mr. Sun smiled, not at all worried that Zhang Zhipeng would see an embarrassing side of Beijing University. “Come with us to the car.”
Mr. Gu smiled and left with the students.
The principal was a little stunned.
What about the booth that they had promised to set up?
Now the booth was here, but with no one manning it, it was the same as a decoration.
In the car, Tan Mo quickly sent a message to Mr. Zhu. “We are on the way to Jiaoyuan Second High School.”
“Alright, we are in the classroom with the second class of third-year students. Find out how to get here,” Mr. Zhu replied.
Jiaoyuan Second High School was large, and there were many students.
These students had always been known to be hard workers.
They were different from Jiaoyuan First High School.
Jiaoyuan First High School had a high rate of passing the college entrance examination, but the number of students had always been controlled. It was not easy to send children to attend Jiaoyuan First High School.
However, Jiaoyuan Second High School also had a high rate of passing the college entrance examination but did not reject students with poorer results from enrolling.
Thus, there were at least ten classes in a year.
In Lin Jingyuan’s batch, there were 12 classes of third-year students.
There were 60 students in a class.
The teachers were good and dedicated. Since there were so many students in each class, if everyone wanted to learn well, they had to work harder.
They woke up at 5 a.m. to get ready. They jogged at 6 a.m. at continued their morning reading at 6:30 a.m. Class officially started at 7:30.
At noon, the students did not waste time eating. They studied on their own as they eat.
They went to the lunchroom with white shoes and often left with a few stains.
Since students at Jiaoyuan Second High School stayed in the dormitory, they remained in the classrooms and studied on their own until 10 p.m.
When they returned to the dormitory, the students would still switch on the lights and continue studying.
It could be seen how hardworking they were.
There were many students, and they stayed in the dormitory, hence the school grounds of Jiaoyuan Second High School were quite large.
It was much different from Jiaoyuan First High School, where the school building could only be seen once they entered.
The car with Beijing University representatives stopped at the entrance of Jiaoyuan Second High School.
Everyone was a little stunned when they got out of the car.
Mr. Zhu had not mentioned that Jiaoyuan Second High School was so big.
Once Mr. Sun entered, he asked the person in the reception office where to go.
The receptionist pointed Mr. Sun in the correct direction.
They walked in that direction, but they soon became a bit unclear of where they were headed.
When the others were not noticing, Tan Mo secretly got close to a large tree and pretended that it was too hot. She took shelter under the tree for a while.
She used her hand to fan herself while she asked, “Old Willow?”
This was a willow tree, thus Tan Mo called it Old Willow.
She had originally wanted to call it Little Willow.
After all, it certainly as not be as old as her, who had lived two lives.
Tan Mo was worried that the willow tree would ignore her if she called it that.
The leaves of the willow tree emitted a rustling sound as they brushed against each other on the swaying branches.
What was the situation with this lady?
Was she speaking to him?
“Old Willow, I know that you can understand what I am saying,” Tan Mo said again.
The old Willow tree was surprised.
It had been around for years. This was the first time it had met someone who could speak to it.
“Where is the school building for the third-year students?” Tan Mo asked softly.
The willow tree wanted to pretend that it could not understand. Tan Mo secretly touched the bark of the willow tree and transmitted some healing magic.
The bark of the willow tree had engravings by mischievous students who did not know how to love and protect nature.
There were names and other words from many different years.
That included those who had successfully enrolled in so-and-so universities.
They were many such instances.
They probably wanted to leave their name as a memory.
When new students arrived, they could see these names and would respect their upperclassmen.
The engravings of students who had entered Beijing University and Hua University were especially deep.
The old tree was unable to heal those and was even in pain.
Although Tan Mo’s healing magic was unable to make the words on the bark disappear, it was at least able to make the pain go away.
She had even managed to fix the branches that were almost breaking.
The leaves also seemed to be turning from dark green to a brighter green and were filled with life.
The rustling sound emitted by the willow tree became louder and lighter.
“Your wounds are all healed.” Tan Mo petted the bark of the willow tree a few times and consoled it. “I am unable to stop people from engraving on you in the future, but if I have the chance to come back, I will heal you again.”
“Little lady, I know that it is not likely for you to come back in the future, but I am already very grateful to you,” the old willow tree finally spoke. “I feel much better now.. It has been a long time since I felt so relaxed.”
