Chapter 174 Such Terrifying Results

"Which professor set his sights on Ruan Cha?" Lin Yao asked excitedly.

"Jing Hetian."

"W-What?!" Ruan Wei's high-pitched voice nearly cracked.

It was actually... Jing Hetian!

That genius programming professor appointed by the National Computer Science Administration as the foremost computer luminary!

And Ruan Cha, at just a few years old, had already caught this professor's eye, to the extent that he even wanted to take her away to study.

One must know that Jing Hetian had never taken on any students, let alone ever offered to take someone away to school.

This was simply unimaginable...

Lin Yao was so shocked that she stammered slightly, "Do you remember when you and Ruan Cha had that falling out, and your family issued a statement claiming that Ruan Cha's IP address couldn't be traced at all—that official Weibo post shared by the National Cybersecurity Bureau?"

Prompted by Lin Yao, Ruan Wei's mind tightened. "I remember! It said she was the champion of the Internet Security Competition, and that she was an exceptionally talented programming prodigy!"

"At the time, I thought it was just some online farce. I figured Gu Zhenzhi might have bribed someone inside the Cybersecurity Bureau to issue that statement to help Ruan Cha. I never expected... that it was all entirely true!"

Lin Yao turned back in disbelief to look at Ruan Cha, who was leaning casually against the desk with her elbows propped up.

To think that she... at such a young age, could achieve such terrifying accomplishments!

After the initial shock, Lin Yao snapped back to reality. She grabbed Ruan Wei's hand and lowered her voice, "We absolutely cannot let anyone else find out."

They could never let everyone know that Ruan Cha possessed such terrifying prowess in programming!

Otherwise, Ruan Cha would eclipse everyone even more... That was completely unacceptable!

Ruan Wei's fists tightened involuntarily.

Ever since she was a child, she had studied programming under Kong Xian's tutelage, participating in numerous youth competitions big and small and accumulating quite a collection of awards. This had always been the proudest highlight of her resume.

Never did she expect Ruan Cha to be such a gifted prodigy!

How was she supposed to accept this kind of psychological gap...

Noticing the change in Ruan Wei's expression, Lin Yao smiled at Wang Qingqing. "Qingqing, we roughly understand the situation now. Trust us, we will definitely help you explain things clearly to Chacha..."

"Then thank you both so much." Wang Qingqing looked at Lin Yao with gratitude.

Just as the words faded, their computer science teacher suddenly walked into the classroom holding a stack of documents. "I'll take a few minutes of everyone's time. In a few days, Professor Jing Hetian is coming to our school to give a lecture. After discussions among the deans, our school will organize a programming competition tomorrow afternoon to select three outstanding contestants to attend the lecture alongside Professor Jing. The judge for the competition will be Professor Jing himself. This is an incredible opportunity, so anyone interested should sign up as soon as possible..."

Hearing this, Lin Yao's heart skipped a beat.

Why was it that whatever she feared most was happening?

Seeing Wang Qingqing return to her seat, Lin Yao squeezed Ruan Wei's hand. "Weiwei, don't be nervous. No matter how high Ruan Cha's programming talent is, if she can't enter the competition, she won't have a chance to meet Professor Jing. As long as you perform at your normal level, you're bound to make the top three. Once Professor Jing sees your programming record, he'll definitely remember you. When the time comes, the one going on stage to represent the students alongside the professor will be you, not her..."

After placing the programming documents on the podium, the computer science teacher left.

The classroom erupted into a massive uproar over the news.

After all, no one in Mochen No. 2 High School did not know of Jing Hetian.

Jing Hetian was an alumnus of Mochen No. 2 High School. When he was admitted to a top-tier foreign university back then, he was only fifteen years old—a genius youth in the truest sense of the word.
