Doing It Over Again - Chapter 39

Ever since Gu Ningzhao defended Shen Shao in front of the students of the Information Branch, no one has ever said that Shen Shao was hugging his thighs and legs on purpose.

What surprised Shen Shao was that the next day, Wang Tong brought two servants to apologize to him. That sincere attitude made Shen Shao almost suspect that Wang Tong had changed his mind and became a new person after one night.

He was too lazy to care about these young people, the other party didn’t come to trouble him, and he didn’t have the energy to make trouble with them over such trivial matters, it was a waste of time.

Just before the final exam, Huaguo University received an invitation letter from an international youth talent competition qualifier, inviting Huaguo University to form a student team to participate in this competition. This competition is jointly held by 18 countries, and the process and results of the competition will be broadcast on TV stations in 18 countries. Therefore, Huaguo attaches great importance to this competition, and invites major domestic schools to participate in the preliminaries, and then selects the best results. Five outstanding students went to Wei Island in the United States for an international competition.

Three people from the Information Branch were invited. Shen Shao was one of them, and the youngest among them. The other two were graduate students from the branch, and the other was a senior who often participated in various competitions and got good grades.

This competition is very important to the country, so the pre-selection is very strict. Shen Shao can get the pre-selection qualifications, and it all depends on winning the championship in several competitions he participated in in high school, and he can manage Feiteng so well.

Maybe other people don’t know who Feiteng’s boss is, but it’s impossible for the country not to know, otherwise the pre-selection places for this kind of event have nothing to do with Shen Shao.

“I said, this is not a talent competition, it’s a decathlon competition, right?” Wang Hao watched the qualifiers without his jaw stunned, “Don’t we mortals watch TV on our knees in this kind of competition? ?”

“Who knows what’s going on,” Shen Shao knew that this competition was about the country’s face, so the above paid so much attention. If he could really participate in the official competition, it would be a rare opportunity in life for anyone.

“Gu Ningzhao, have you also received an invitation letter?” Xiong Gang looked at Gu Ningzhao who was sitting on the side without speaking, “If you and Shen Shao can participate in the official competition, then our dormitory will have a face.”

“Not only does our dormitory have face, our school will also have face,” Wang Hao pointed to the description on the invitation letter, “The total number of places to participate in the competition is only five, and there are so many colleges and universities in the country. Just take two away, don’t you envy other schools?”

“It’s hard to say whether we can participate in the finals,” Shen Shao said with a smile to Gu Ningzhao, “Tomorrow we are going to participate in the five-day preliminaries, so I’m a little nervous.”

Gu Ningzhao stood up, walked to him and sat down, then took out a box of mints from his coat pocket and handed it to him, reached out and patted his shoulder: “Rest early, I’ll call you in the morning.”

Realizing that he was comforted by the “young man”, Shen Shao smiled and picked up a full bottle of mints, turned to look at Gu Ningzhao who was going to wash and sleep, shook his head, and the more he lived, the more he went back.

Upon seeing this, Xiong Gang and Wang Hao also turned off their computers, and decided to accompany the two contestants to sleep early so that they could refresh their minds.

Early the next morning, Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao packed their luggage, went out of the dormitory door together, and took the school bus to the pre-selected location.

There are 20 students participating in the pre-selection of BGI this time, and there are five team leaders. More than 20 people are sitting on the school bus and are curious about the content of the exam. Because this pre-selection is different from other competitions, the invitation letter It only states what qualities the participating students should possess, but does not clearly state the assessment criteria.

Not to mention these students, even the school leaders of BGI are at a loss, but since this is a major event to win glory for the country, they can’t ask the organizer more, so they have to send a school doctor, a psychology teacher, and three more Life teachers accompany. Their requirements are not high, as long as there is a place in Huada among the five people participating in the official competition this time.

The psychology teacher intended to let the students relax, so they talked about some light and interesting things along the way, which caused the students to gradually relax their nervous emotions.

Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao sat together. He glanced at Gu Ningzhao, who was listening to songs with headphones all the way, and at the alumni who were all around with joy. There was an illusion that Gu Ningzhao and these people were in two worlds.

The school bus stopped in a resort hot spring resort, and Shen Shao pushed Gu Ningzhao with his eyes closed: “Ning Zhao, here we are.”

Gu Ningzhao opened his eyes and looked out the window. After he took off his earphones, he heard that the teacher in charge of the team asked them to put on the competition cards. He frowned, what competition cards? When he turned his head, he saw Shen Shao hanging a sign around his neck.

“You didn’t hear when the teacher handed out the sign just now,” Shen Shao hung up his sign, then glanced at the number on it, 015, which happened to be next to Gu Ningzhao.

After the door of the school bus opened, a staff member wearing a work badge came over. After negotiating with the team leader, a person with a camera appeared beside the door, seemingly ready to follow along.

This is to prepare the participating students to get used to the camera? Shen Shao frowned. He heard that the official competition will last for seven days. Could it be that the content of the competition is also related to daily life.

Although everyone didn’t know the content of this competition, everyone still tried their best to keep calm and get out of the car, and then dragged their suitcases to the relevant person in charge to get the room card.

Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao have similar numbers, so when they were divided into rooms, they were divided into the same room.

After everyone got their room cards, they saw another team of students coming over, and there was a cameraman following them next to them.

“It is said that

This time, more than ten famous schools in China have been invited, and two or three hundred people have chosen five places.” A boy standing not far from Shen Shao looked at the participating students opposite, and said with little hope, “I hope we The big gods of the school are a little bit more ambitious, and don’t lose to the people from other universities. “

After the team leader led the Hua students to complete the registration, he took the students upstairs to avoid any troubles caused by people talking too much.

Huada’s rooms are all on the sixth floor. The teacher, the leader of the team, asked everyone to go to the room to rest first, and then gather in the dining room at 11:40.

Shen Shao walked into the room, put the salute of himself and Shen Shao, opened the window to let the air in the room circulate more, glanced at the watch and said, “It’s almost eleven o’clock, we are at half past seven in the morning. I set off, and it took so long to sit in the car.”

“Tired?” Gu Ningzhao heard the words, took out a bottle of drink from the suitcase and handed it to Shen Shao, “Drink some water first, and take a break after lunch.”

Shen Shao took the drink and took two sips, then walked to the bathroom to take a look: “There is a small indoor hot spring here. If there is no game in the afternoon, we will soak in the hot spring to relieve fatigue.”

Gu Ningzhao’s eyes moved, and after a while, he hummed.

At lunch time, all the participating students had already arrived, but the number was not as large as everyone expected. There were less than 200 students in total. After all, not every school has 20 participating places like BGI.

Before the meal, the leader in charge of this competition said a few words of encouragement. The main idea was to hope that everyone had a good time, had a good time in the competition, gave full play to their own strengths, and showed their own characteristics in the competition.

There is no mention of winning glory for the country, but it makes people hear the importance of this competition. Otherwise, why spend so much energy to gather outstanding students from all over the country to the capital?

After eating, Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao rested for more than an hour, and they received a phone call saying that they were meeting downstairs, so Shen Shao’s idea of ​​soaking in the hot spring came to nothing.

Before going out, Gu Ningzhao glanced at the direction of the bathroom expressionlessly, and then stuffed Shen Shao with a scarf to wrap it around.

After going downstairs, Shen Shao found several cameramen nearby who were filming. He lowered his voice and whispered in Gu Ningzhao’s ear: “This is about to catch up with the Miss World beauty pageant.”

After the students from the major colleges and universities came together, a man in his 40s came out and brought everyone into a large conference room, and then asked everyone to solve the logical reasoning questions in front of them as quickly as possible.

Not only do it well, but do it fast?

Shen Shao glanced at these questions and had high requirements for logical reasoning. He glanced at Gu Ningzhao who was not far away and saw that he had already picked up a pen to write, so he retracted his gaze and started to do it seriously.

Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao almost crossed the paper with each other. After seeing that the teacher who took the paper wrote the answer time on his paper, he turned and walked out of the conference room.

No wonder there are so many invigilators on the scene, it turned out to be for accurate counting.

When Shen Shao walked out of the examination room, he saw the team leader’s psychology teacher showed him a gentle smile, handed him a bottle of water and said, “It’s hard work.”

Gu Ningzhao, who stepped out of Shen Shao first, walked silently to Shen Shao’s side, and then continued to be silent.

After a while, other BGI students came out one after another, and then many people felt that there were too many traps in this set of questions, and a graduate student looked at the lower grades Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao doubtfully: “You two are doing it too fast. .” He actually wanted to ask the two of them if they were serious about doing the question, but since everyone was alumni, he was embarrassed to lose face for the two of them, so he swallowed the last half of the sentence.

“Didn’t you say you need to do the questions as quickly as possible, so we handed in the papers after we finished,” Shen Shao guessed the other party’s mind, maybe everyone present had this idea, he smiled and said, “No matter so much Well, the question is over anyway.”

Others didn’t ask much when they heard the words. After all, everyone was not familiar with each other. What’s more, they had also heard that Gu Ningzhao had a special status. They were all about to graduate and knew what to say and what not to say.

I heard that there was a second-generation rich looking for trouble with Shen Shao a few days ago, but he came to apologize within two days, with an extremely sincere attitude. This matter has spread all over Huada, and even their senior brothers have heard of it, so although Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao are junior brothers, everyone is very polite to them.

After the logic test was completed, the person in charge informed everyone that they would gather downstairs at 6:30 tomorrow morning, and gave everyone a set of souvenirs, and asked everyone to go back to their rooms.

There is a booklet in the souvenir, which states the time and meeting place of each test, and also states the five-day work and rest time. Although the candidates are not required to be on time, the responsible party Shen Shaojue marked the time as such. Strict, it should not be just good-looking in print.

In the evening, everyone had free time after eating in the dining room. Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao were not interested in the scenery of the hot spring villa, so they took the elevator upstairs after eating.

As soon as the two of them and the other three senior brothers walked into the elevator, a cleaning aunt came in with a trash can. I wonder if it was a dead spot that had just been cleaned. The cleaner’s hair and shoulders were covered with a thick layer of gray.

After the cleaner pressed the button area with his stained hand, he stood aside without saying a word. The three senior brothers looked at the keyboard area, but no one moved.

Seeing this, Shen Shao reached out and pressed 6. After seeing that no one wanted to come in, he pressed the close button.

When the elevator started, I didn’t know what was wrong. The lights inside flickered several times, so frightened that the cleaners accidentally kicked over the blue trash can that was placed next to it. After the lights returned to normal, the trash can rolled on the ground. In a circle, the garbage was also poured out, exuding an unpleasant smell, and even splashed some dirty things on the feet of the five of them.

The faces of the three senior brothers suddenly became ugly. Just as they were about to say something, they saw the cleaner clutching his chest in pain. He seemed to be in great pain. Nervous, what if something happened to this person?

“Auntie, what’s the matter with you?” Shen Shao glanced at the corner above the elevator. With the monitoring system, he wouldn’t worry about going bankrupt as soon as he helped him. Seeing the other party’s pained expression, Shen Shao was worried that she would fall to the ground, so he stretched out his hand to support the cleaner. As a result, as soon as he held her arm, the cleaner suddenly fell down. If it wasn’t for Gu Ningzhao’s quick-witted help, he would have been crushed to the ground by the cleaner.

At this time, the elevator door opened, Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao helped people out of the elevator, and the three senior brothers walked out. With a look of apology, he said, “Ouch, young people, I’m really sorry for getting your shoes dirty, what should I do, or… I’ll pay you for the cleaning fee?”

“No need, Auntie, are you healthy?” Shen Shao’s eyes fell on the cleaner’s wrist, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.

“It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s an old problem,” the cleaner waved his hand and walked back into the elevator, “Thank you all.” Then, with a ding, the elevator door closed in front of the five people.

The three brothers:…

Is this aunt here to tease them?

After Shen Shao and Gu Ningzhao returned to the room, Gu Ningzhao went to the bathroom to take a shower. Shen Shao sat beside the bed and looked at Gu Ningzhao whose hair was dripping with water, “The cleaner today seems a little strange.”

Gu Ningzhao wiped his hair and went to the window to draw the curtains: “Well.” He sat back on the bed, “How can there be so many coincidences.”

“Is it a deliberate arrangement?” Shen Shao raised his eyebrows in surprise, no wonder he felt that the other person’s skin was not like a cleaner, but more like a well-maintained person.

Gu Ningzhao paused as he wiped his hair: “It’s possible.”

Shen Shao was speechless for a while, what exactly is going on in this game?
