Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 199 Ready to make a move

The head of student affairs sized up the two students in front of him.

She has both good looks and high intelligence; the only flaw is that she wasn't her son.

CCTV has invited Xinghua School to participate in a knowledge-based variety show aimed at high school students, hoping the school will recommend outstanding students.

Almost without a second thought, not only the second-year high school teachers, but almost all the teachers in the school recommended Xu Chaomu and Shi Sui.

It's practically the face of Star China.

The head of teaching said with a smile, "Our school has three spots for this program. The teachers have discussed it and decided that the senior students will not participate this year because they are taking the college entrance examination. The freshmen's program is scheduled to coincide with the study tour, so the spots were given to the sophomores."

"You two are excellent students, and your teacher hopes that you can both participate."

Shi Sui was thinking about how to politely decline.

She really didn't want to participate in the show.

I heard that the recording location is in another city, and it won't be a one-time event, but rather several episodes. Just thinking about it will take up a lot of time and interfere with my studies.

The head of student affairs swiveled his chair around to face her: "Shi Sui."

She heard from Team Leader Feng that as long as Shi Sui participates, Xu Chaomu will definitely participate as well, and the two of them only need to win over one of them.

Sometimes, in an office with the door closed, teachers are even more enthusiastic about shipping couples than students are.

The head of teaching said earnestly, "Shi Sui, we teachers have seen your learning progress. You have already completed all the high school curriculum on your own, and the recording of this program is on the weekend, so it will not interfere with your studies."

Shi Sui: I study even on weekends.

The head of the teaching department continued, "Furthermore, on the program, you can make friends with outstanding students from all over the country. The collision of ideas and the sparks of logic will also help your studies."

Shi Sui: Actually, having too many friends is also a problem, sigh.

The head of student affairs didn't win Shi Sui over, but the system did: [Host, go! Go! You can let more people see your excellence! Defeat everyone from all over the country!]

System: [Just like winter camp, crush them all underfoot!]

Shi Sui: [Have you mutated into a villain system?]

It's terrifying how they keep saying things like "defeat" and "trample underfoot."

System: [No, this system just wants to see the host standing the highest.]

Shi Sui: [...I won't go, I'll only go if I'm paid.]

The next second, the head of the teaching department said, "The top three winners of this show will also receive prize money: 100 million for first place, 50 for second place, and 20 for third place..."

Shi Sui didn't hear what the head of the teaching department said next.

100 million!

Shi Sui: [System, give me the money.]

system:[?]

Isn't the production team paying for it? They're paying for it?!

Shi Sui: [This is a CCTV program, broadcast during prime time. If the program becomes popular, it can inspire more young people to love learning.]

System: [So?]

Shi Sui: [You are a learning system, and you also hope that more people will love learning, right?]

The system nodded emphatically, confirming that it was correct.

Shi Sui: [I'm going to stir things up on the show, make it go viral, and inspire more people to love learning. System, you'll support me, right?]

System: [Supported!]

Shi Sui: [Then don't be stingy, or you'll end up with less prize money than the production team gives you.]

After reaching an agreement with the system, Shi Sui no longer hesitated: "Teacher, I want to participate."

The head of the teaching department smiled so hard his eyes narrowed into slits: "Great, great!"

She turned her chair around and looked at Xu Chaomu: "Now that Shi Sui has participated, what about you, Xu Chaomu? Are you going to participate?"

Shi Sui also looked over.

Their eyes met briefly in the air, and Xu Chaomu nodded: "I'll participate."

Dean of Students: "Okay, okay, it's settled then. This program will be held in G City this weekend. The program will reimburse airfare. I will also inform you of any other arrangements."

Shi Sui nodded, then suddenly remembered, "By the way, teacher, you just said our school has three spots, so who is the last one?"

Dean of Students: "According to the monthly exam rankings, it's Pei Shuoxun."

She paused, then added, "But I doubt he'd be interested in that—"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a knock on the door.

The boy standing at the door was dressed in casual clothes without much decoration, yet he couldn't hide his refined and noble air.

He adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses perched on his nose, his expression perfectly measured: "Director Li."

The head of the teaching department nodded and smiled warmly: "Pei Shuoxun, you're here. Come in quickly, we were just talking about 'Extraordinary Genius'."

Pei Shuoxun walked straight to Shi Sui's side.

The head of the teaching department was stunned. There were clearly more empty seats on the other side, so why was he squeezing next to Shi Sui? He was practically pressed against the wall.

But she didn't think much of it and asked directly, "Pei Shuoxun, our teachers are discussing recommending you to participate in 'Extraordinary Academic Achievers.' Would it be convenient for you to participate?"

Pei Shuoxun didn't answer directly, but instead turned his head to look at the person beside him: "You participated?"

Shi Sui nodded.

He nodded in agreement and replied, "Yes, I'll participate too."

*

The news of Shi Sui's participation in "Super Academic Achiever" spread almost immediately after she left the Academic Affairs Office.

"Ahhh, Sister Sui is going to be on TV! I want to go there and be a cheerleader!"

"I heard that TV can make people look ugly. Will it fail to capture Sister Sui's beauty?"

"Which production team is it? I'll have my family provide the latest equipment."

On the other side, the CP fans were ecstatic: "Mom, my favorite CP is going to be on TV!"

"But why is the student council president participating? He shouldn't be interested in this, right? I haven't seen him at school much lately."

"I heard that something bad has happened to the Pei family recently."

"what's up?"

"I'm not sure, but it's definitely a big deal, so I can't say."

"..."

When Yan Ze heard that Shi Sui and Xu Chaomu were going to participate in the program, he immediately sent a message to Chi Yan.

Yan Ze: [Brother Chi, while you were away these past two days, Shi Sui and Song Xinying have been getting close, but Xu Chaomu is making a move again; he wants to go to "Super Genius" with Shi Sui.]

Yan Ze: [I'm planning to infiltrate the cheerleading squad, isn't that a good idea?]

Yan Ze: [But it's strange that Brother Pei is also participating. He's been involved in such a big incident recently; he should be keeping a low profile.]

Yan Ze: [Oh, I remember now, Shi Sui is his sister. He must have gone to keep an eye on her to prevent her from being deceived by bad men?]

He also understood why Brother Chi and Brother Pei had fought last semester.

I've heard that brothers everywhere don't want their sisters to fall in love too early, especially if the sister is dating her best friend.

But before they could even talk, they started fighting.

Yan Ze scratched his head in confusion: [With Brother Pei watching over me, should I still be a cheerleader?]
