Chapter 279: The Computer Competition (Part 2)

“Teacher Yu, I will participate!”

Zhao Qingfeng hurriedly followed.

“…”

Teacher Yu looked at him with a gaze full of disappointment, “This time, there are 23 provinces and municipalities with a total of 68 schools and 110 teams participating. Our school can only send one team, which includes 4 to 5 players. But you must be aware, you’re just a freshman, and freshmen usually don’t get the chance to participate. Moreover, from sophomores to seniors, our computer science department alone has over 600 students, male and female. Every teacher wants their students to shine for their class and school, making the slots highly competitive. The principal had specially approved to reward you and asked me to notify you about this, to see if you could gain some experience. But still, your current attitude, always neglecting your studies, even though you’re the provincial top scorer, can the other students easily accept you?”

The principal’s word was definitive.

But Teacher Yu still had to consider the opinions of other teachers.

Even if most students could accept it.

There were a few who were desperately trying to get into the competition team, making great efforts for the last two spots. Even if Zhao Qingfeng wasn’t as ‘neglectful’ as Teacher Yu described, he was still just a freshman. No matter how outstanding, it wouldn’t be easy for the seniors in their third or fourth years to acknowledge him.

“Teacher Yu, I must participate in this competition. If anyone objects, we can have a contest.”

Zhao Qingfeng, as usual, raised his eyebrows confidently, leaving Teacher Yu in a dilemma between scolding and hitting.

“…”

Teacher Yu shook his head, “It’s probably not a matter of contesting anymore. I just hung up saying you wouldn’t go; they’ve likely chosen someone else by now.”

Zhao Qingfeng grabbed Teacher Yu’s hand, “Don’t worry, let’s go check it out now.”

Teacher Yu, unable to resist further and actually wanting Zhao Qingfeng to gain some experience, agreed, “Let’s have a look then. But let’s make it clear first, if the decision has already been made, don’t embarrass me. And from now on, study hard. Don’t always leave things to Wang Yuan and Li Xiang to handle. Li Wenshu also has complaints about you. She didn’t become the class president, and you, who did, hardly take care of things. This puts me in a difficult position too…”

Zhao Qingfeng nodded, silently planning to win over Li Wenshu as well.

That girl has a good personality.

Aside from being a bit too eager for quick success, she was acceptable in other aspects.

The two entered the campus.

At that moment,

Shen Lingyao was waiting at the main gate.

She didn’t return to the dormitory, worried about Brother Qingfeng.

Seeing Teacher Yu approaching angrily, she playfully greeted him.

Teacher Yu glared at her, then at Zhao Qingfeng, “It’s normal to date in university, but you must understand the importance of balancing love and studies!”

Shen Lingyao wasn’t his student, so he couldn’t lecture her further.

Zhao Qingfeng smiled helplessly.

Studies could wait.

Love was indispensable!

Living life over again was all for the sake of making the girl happy, but now wasn’t the time to say anything. He simply raised his eyebrows at Shen Lingyao, signaling her to wait downstairs for a moment, then followed Teacher Yu into the main teaching building.

On the third floor,

A computer lab was noisy with discussion.

As Zhao Qingfeng entered, a teacher in a Zhongshan suit was announcing loudly, “Everyone, calm down, don’t rush! In addition to the three slots designated by the school, for the last two slots, due to everyone’s enthusiasm, I’ve decided to hold a temporary on-site selection right here in our lab. I have a set of BUG-filled programs here, which I’ll distribute to everyone now. The first two students to fix the BUGs will officially join the team for the China University Student Computer System Ability Competition held in Beijing in a month!”

“Yay!”

“Teacher, send it quickly, I want to be the first!”

“Cough cough… Teacher Zhou, my student Zhao Qingfeng also wants to participate.”
