73 The Winners of the Mathematical Modeling Competition Are Announced; National Award!
“Thank you, Grandpa Song,” Lin Fan said.
When Song Wenming heard that, he could not help but reevaluate Lin Fan.
At such a young age, it was already very good to have such superb chess skills.
Moreover, he was so humble.
It was really rare!
“Lil Lin, shall we play another round?” Song Wenming asked.
From ‘young man,’ he became ‘Lil Lin.’
It was obvious that Song Wenming had already placed Lin Fan in a very high position in his heart.
“Why are you still playing Go? It’s Jiaxin’s birthday today. Why is everyone standing here and watching a game of Go?”
A hoarse voice came from behind.
Then, a white-haired old lady slowly walked out.
“Grandma!” Song Jiaxin stepped forward to help her up.
“My good granddaughter!” Huang Chunlan smiled.
“Grandma, it’s still early. Let Grandpa play a few more rounds. It’ll be fine…” Song Jiaxin said.
Huang Chunlan said, “What do you mean? If he wants to play Go, he can play it later.”
Song Wenming also stood up and smiled. “Yes, it’s your birthday today. Lil Lin and I will play next time.”
“Mom, Dad, you’re here too?”
In the distance, a middle-aged couple walked over.
They… They were Song Jiaxin’s parents.
Everyone at the scene greeted them.
“Hello, Uncle!”
“Hello, Aunt!”
The middle-aged couple also responded politely.
“Thank you for coming to Jiaxin’s birthday party. I hope you guys have a good time.”
With the addition of Song Jiaxin’s parents and grandparents, the crowd became a little more restrained.
They also felt this, so they did not stay for long. After finding an excuse, they left together.
As expected, after Song Jiaxin’s elders left, the atmosphere in the backyard became lively again.
“Brother Lin Fan, it’s fine that you’re good at racing, but I didn’t expect you to be so good at chess and Go as well! I feel like kneeling down in front of you,” Liu Yuhang said.
“Really?” Lin Fan smiled. “Then kneel down. I won’t mind.”
When the surrounding people heard this, they broke into laughter, and the atmosphere was extremely joyous.
After eating the cake, Lin Fan sat on the deck chair, facing the breeze and looking up at the bright stars.
“This villa is quite comfortable to live in.”
Song Jiaxin walked over and said, “With your ability, it should be easy for you to buy a villa here, right?”
Lin Fan said, “A villa here should be around 100 to 200 million, right? That figure still makes me a little nervous.”
Although Lin Fan owned Qiankun, 51% of Yinshan Group’s shares, a building in Washing Palace, KM Mall, and many other assets…
However, these were all from the system and could only be used for dividends and rent collection. They could not be sold.
Lin Fan’s true capital was only a mere 140 million.
With 140 million, it was barely enough to buy a villa here.
Lin Fan did not want to spend all his money so quickly.
Song Jiaxin laughed. “I didn’t expect you to be short on money.”
One had to know that Lin Fan had casually rejected a sports car worth 28 million yuan.
Lin Fan smiled and touched his nose.
The birthday party lasted until 11 PM.
At this time, the school dormitory was already closed.
Thus, Lin Fan came to Yi Ke City.
It was nighttime.
Lin Fan and Qiu Ziqian did not get any sleep.
Huang Ling, who was in the room next door, was also sleepless.
…
The next day.
After Lin Fan had his breakfast, he drove to Jiangbei University as usual.
When Lin Fan arrived at the classroom, the counselor, Sun Yaodong, was already standing on the podium.
After the bell rang, Sun Yaodong smiled and said, “I’ve always thought that you were the best students in the school. It turns out that I have good taste!
“Next, I’ll announce the provincial-level winners of the National Mathematical Modeling Competition!
“Zhao Yin, third prize of the provincial level.”
…
“Song Yi, third prize of the provincial level.”
“Ma Zhong, second prize of the provincial level.”
…
When everyone heard their names, they all revealed a look of joy that was difficult to hide.
Especially Song Yi, who almost jumped up in joy.
Very quickly, Sun Yaodong finished reading out the names.
“Brother Lin Fan, both of us have tough lives.” Zheng Jinbao sighed.
Sun Yaodong said, “Next, I’ll announce the list of winners of the National Mathematical Modeling Competition.
“Lin Fan!”
Zheng Jinbao was speechless.
It turned out that he was the only one with a bitter life.
Sun Yaodong continued, “Lin Fan is the only National Award winner in our class and also the only National Award winner in the entire Jiangbei University! Please give him a round of applause!”
Sun Yaodong took the lead and started clapping.
Immediately after, the entire classroom burst into lively applause.
Song Jiaxin, who was sitting not too far away, could not help but look at Lin Fan with her bright eyes.
As the two of them were sitting in the same row, she could only see Lin Fan’s side when she turned her head.
However, it was this one look that made Song Jiaxin’s heart beat faster.
Naturally, Lin Fan had no way of knowing this.
At this moment, he felt a touch of joy in his heart.
That was because a crisp notification rang out in Lin Fan’s mind.
[Ding! Complete the task and win a National Award in the National Mathematical Modeling Competition. You’ve received five silver packets.]
The mission was completed!
Sun Yaodong continued, “Lin Fan, you should get ready. You’ll need to go to Jingbei in two days. You’ll have to answer your oral defense on the spot to determine the level of the national award. Perform well and strive to bring back a Higher Education Cup! Hahaha!”
Speaking up to this point, Sun Yaodong could not help but burst out laughing.
It was as if he could already see the scene of Lin Fan bringing back the Higher Education Cup.
However, he did not know that Lin Fan was not planning on going to Jingbei to defend his dissertation.
Lin Fan had no interest in the National Award or the Higher Education Cup.
Now that he had completed the mission, why make another trip to the capital?
‘I’m sorry!
‘But I would rather sleep on my desk!’
