Top Student at Their Peak-Chapter 164 - 96 The Competition Exam Ends_2

Coincidentally, Qiao Yu wasn’t familiar with other contestants from Xingnan, and Yu Wei had a rather aloof personality. Even if there were contestants from the same school, he was too lazy to interact. So naturally, after two days of exams, the two of them ended up together.

How should I put it, actually after the first day, Yu Wei subconsciously walked with Qiao Yu and planned to ignore him on the second day.

Because the first thing this guy said when they met was: "Don’t ask me how I did today, just know I got full marks on these three questions, so you better try harder."

This sentence really annoyed him.

But on the second day, it was Qiao Yu who actively put his arm around Yu Wei’s shoulder and whispered: "Yu Wei, I have some potentially bad news for you, my worst score this year’s CMO might just be a tie for first place again."

Yu Wei replied with a blank expression, "Sorry, I won’t believe anything you say until the results are out."

Qiao Yu thought for a moment and said, "How about we make a bet? I’m sure I’ll rank first. Let’s keep it small, just five hundred bucks."

Yu Wei shook his head and said, "Sorry, I never gamble, and especially not with money."

Qiao Yu glanced at this guy and sighed, "Tsk tsk tsk, don’t you think living like this will miss out on a lot of fun? Even though I never bet either, sometimes a little spice in life can ignite a man’s inexplicable desire to win, and winning is very pleasurable.

For example, though I’ve never gambled, choosing to bet with you is because I’m confident I’ll get first. This is all thanks to my overwhelming self-confidence! And now you have a chance to shatter my self-confidence, for just five hundred bucks. If you don’t seize it, you’ll be missing out a lot!"

Yu Wei gave Qiao Yu a strange look and said, "The way you’re talking, it’s obvious you’re just trying to scam me for my money, right? If I still bet with you, it’s no different than just handing you cash. Five hundred bucks isn’t much, but sorry, I’m not stupid."

Well, Qiao Yu really didn’t care about the five hundred bucks now, but making a little money off this rich kid Yu Wei had almost become his obsession.

Unfortunately, this guy was really unyielding and stingy.

Probably because of Yu Wei’s cold, self-important personality, none of the other campers discussing answers nearby came to bother the two of them.

"If it really won’t work, how about just betting a hundred?" Qiao Yu decided to set aside his pride and lower his expectations.

Yu Wei shook his head firmly and said, "I won’t bet even a single coin! My dad said, money is a tool; you shouldn’t take it too seriously. But every cent spent should reflect its value and be given meaning.

If you really want to make a bet with me, we could do it differently. For example, the loser donates fifty thousand to a legitimate charity in the winner’s name."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Yu said without hesitation, "Okay, then you bet I won’t be first this time, and if you lose, you donate fifty thousand in my name. If I lose, I’ll donate in your name. The results will be out at the closing ceremony the day after tomorrow, and we’ll settle it immediately."

Yu Wei gave Qiao Yu a sideways glance and said, "I told you I’m not stupid, I won’t bet on that. Instead, let’s bet on whether the official closing ceremony, scheduled to end at 4:30 PM, will finish early or late, using the exact moment the announcement is made as the limit, down to the second! Do you dare to bet?"

Qiao Yu glanced at Yu Wei and replied firmly, "Sorry, no bet."

Yu Wei sneered, "Heh... what, you scared?"

Qiao Yu responded confidently, "First, I said I never gamble, I’m simply confident; second, I don’t have fifty thousand, so how could I bet?"

As soon as he finished speaking, both their shoulders were tapped.

They turned their heads to see it was Little Fatty.

Yu Yongjun said indignantly, "You two, really? You walked and talked the whole way and didn’t even see me waving at you just now?"

Yu Wei rolled his eyes and said nothing, while Qiao Yu patiently explained, "Couldn’t help it, I was just discussing a fifty-thousand-dollar business deal with Yu Wei."

Little Fatty blinked and said, "I heard everything, but why not bet? If it were me, I’d bet with Yu Wei."

Qiao Yu was somewhat surprised and said, "Didn’t see that coming, you’re secretly rich?" freewebnøvel.coɱ

Yu Yongjun shook his head and replied with even more righteousness, "I don’t have money, but if I win, I’d force him to donate, and if I lose, I’d just default. I don’t have the money to donate, he’s not going to take me to court, right? A bet isn’t legally binding anyway.

Moreover, I’m doing a good deed here, promoting fairer secondary distribution of social wealth. Even if it gets out, people would still speak well of me. Isn’t that right, Brother Qiao?"

Qiao Yu couldn’t help but raise his hand and give Yu Yongjun a thumbs up, praising, "You got it, Yu Yongjun, your thinking is broad. If I really go into math research in the future and encounter unsolvable problems, I’ll definitely chat with you first. Maybe you could find a solution from some unexpected angle that a serious person wouldn’t think of."

"Haha..." Yu Yongjun laughed merrily.

Beside them, Yu Wei couldn’t stand it any longer and said disdainfully, "First time I’ve heard someone describe shamelessness in such an elegant way. Can’t you two have some shame?"

Qiao Yu glanced at Yu Wei, then raised his hand in a grown-up manner to pat Yu Yongjun’s shoulder and said, "Ignore him, he’s just jealous of your open-minded thinking. By the way, how did you do on the test today? Don’t tell me you can’t even make it into the top sixty."
