Genius Girlfriend

This competition exam lasts from nine in the morning to half past one in the afternoon.

After Lin Zhixia handed in the paper, he quickly joined his teammates.

Teammate Du Cunkang hurriedly asked, "Have you written the last inscription, Lin Zhixia?"

"It's written." Lin Zhixia answered honestly.

Du Cunkang took a breath: "I wrote half of the sixth question. The fifth question is more difficult. I used a new method to solve the problem..." He picked up a pen and wrote in his palm. He set out formulas and delineated the range of parameters, and didn't mind the ink staining his hands.

The other three teammates were listening carefully to his thoughts. Lin Zhixia took the lead and applauded him: "That's great, you should be able to get a perfect score for the fifth question."

When Lin Zhixia spoke, the Russian player happened to pass by her.

Lin Zhixia changed her mouth to praise her teammates in English: "great! iamproudofyouforfindingsuelegantsolution."

The meaning of this sentence is, great, I am proud of you, you have found a clever way.

Du Cunkang was stunned for a second, and exclaimed with Lin Zhixia: "yousolveallproblemseffitly.youarehighlyintelligent."

Du Cunkang praised Lin Zhixia for solving all the problems and praised her for being smart. Lin Zhixia felt the exaggeration in Du Cunkang's tone. They complimented each other in this way in front of the Russian players. Are they encouraging each other or trying to overwhelm their opponents in momentum?

In the noisy corridor, Alexandrov in the Russian team stopped.

Alexandrov looked at Du Cunkang.

Du Cunkang admired alexandrov from his heart.

Du Cunkang's parents specifically found a friend in the northeast to help him buy a copy of Alexandrov's book from Russia. Du Cunkang opened the book and saw the original Russian language. He couldn't even understand a single letter, so he could only repeatedly examine the formulas and illustrations in the book.

He thought that Alexandrov would say a word to him.

He stood still and nodded slightly towards Alexandrov.

alexandrov smiled at him. He saw the smile in Alexandrov's eyes, like ripples in the blue sea.

The nearby glass windows were bright and clean. The golden sunlight flooded the corridors, shining the golden hair of the Russian player. Outside the window was a Romanian-style building. White clouds wandered in the broad blue sky. Du Cunkang's mentality suddenly eased a lot. He was like an epiphany on the field, eliminating the heaviest pressure in his heart.

Earlier, because he didn't write the third question and all his teammates did it, he was tortured with guilt and thought he was a drag on all his teammates.

And now, all his irritability, worry, shame, and panic have disappeared. He said to himself: "Dear students, no matter what the result of this competition is, we have tried our best and did our best. I am very happy to be teammates with you. In the days to come, let us continue our efforts and make it even better. Floors."

Lin Zhixia echoed: "Okay."

Then, in the next second, Lin Zhixia rushed to Alexandrov's face.

Du Cunkang didn't even react. When he recovered, he saw Lin Zhixia blocking Alexandrov's way and chatting with the Russian math genius in English.

Lin Zhixia directly raised a graph theory problem, Du Cunkang faintly heard Lin Zhixia say words like "erdoscolborationgraph". Du Cunkang and the other two teammates were surprised. In their impression, Lin Zhixia never took the initiative to provoke others. Why is she uncharacteristically today?

In fact, Lin Zhixia misunderstood Du Cunkang.

From Lin Zhixia's perspective, she only saw Du Cunkang and Alexandrov glance at each other. Then Du Cunkang frowned, sighed, thinking. She thought that Alexandrov had stimulated her teammates, and she decided to find a place back.

Alexandrov is over 1.9 meters tall.

Lin Zhixia looked up at him, her neck sore.

Alexandrov spoke to her. She was soon deeply shocked-Alexandrov's Russian accent was so strong that every English word he uttered had a strong Russian flavor. He speaks very fast, and the speed of his brain exceeds the speed of language expression. Lin Zhixia was dumbfounded and could only dig out his mathematical thinking from his words.

She weighed his words and admitted that he was brilliant. She also met very smart classmates and very hardworking classmates in winter camps in China. Everyone's talents may be displayed in different places. There is no need to compare each other to distinguish which is better.

The truth is this truth...

Lin Zhixia still couldn't help but compete with Alexandrov.

She imitated the speed of alexandrov's speech, dumped the mathematical inferences in her brain like a cascade, and read English vocabulary very fast, making the words in her mouth seem to stick together, and alexandrov showed a surprised expression.

Although they both speak English, they seem to be unable to communicate now.

Du Cunkang smiled awkwardly. He interrupted Lin Zhixia's long talk and took Lin Zhixia out of the examination room. The other two teammates laughed and laughed. One of them asked: "Lin Zhixia, why are you talking to Alexandrov about graph theory? The book he published in junior high school is about graph theory."

Lin Zhixia didn't know why she was addicted to the quarrel just now.

Probably because all the Russian players have put on a very stable look. Lin Zhixia wanted to find out if they really had a chance to win.

The final result of the competition will be announced on the last day of the Romanian Masters.

Before the results were announced, Du Cunkang suggested that everyone go shopping in the city center.

On the one hand, Lin Zhixia wanted to go shopping with his teammates, and on the other hand, he remembered the horror stories told by her brother. Her heart is full of contradictions.

Senior Sister Luo Ying comforted her softly: "Leading the teacher is with us all the way, there is a teacher, you don't have to be afraid, we will pay attention to safety. I will lead you, it is impossible for you to get lost."

Lin Zhixia discussed with her: "Senior Sister, can you always lead me?"

Luo Ying said: "Okay."

Luo Ying stretched out her hand to Lin Zhixia, and Lin Zhixia held her tightly.

Lin Zhixia crossed the road with her elder brother when she was young, and her elder brother would take care of her like a senior. All her worries were dispelled, and a deep sense of security was born in her heart.

All the students in the team marched toward the city center mightily.

Bucharest is the capital of Romania and the host city of the Romanian Masters. Du Cunkang was holding a "Bucharest Travel Guide" and volunteered to act as everyone's guide.

Many old buildings have been preserved on the streets of Bucharest, giving a feeling of tranquility and peace. The restaurants and cafes on the street have an outdoor dining area. The arc-shaped pergola blocks the bright sunlight. Tourists sit under the pergola, holding wine bottles in their hands, and behave in a leisurely manner.

The leader of the team suggested that everyone should make some renovations in the hotel.

Lin Zhixia asked softly: "Can we eat some Romanian home cooking?"

Luo Ying looked around and selected a shop with a lively atmosphere. She took Lin Zhixia and said to the waiter: "tablefht, please."

There are a total of eight people in their team-four full members, two substitutes, and two leading teachers. Therefore, Luo Ying followed the waiter and found a big table, just enough for the eight of them to sit in a circle.

Lin Zhixia reverently picked up the menu and browsed Romanian restaurant dishes. She remembered all the dishes and patterns in her heart. Jiang Yubai has never been to Romania. Lin Zhixia wants to write down all her experiences and share it with Jiang Yubai in every detail.

Lin Zhixia ordered a dish called "sarmalecumamaligasiati". Du Cunkang said that this dish contains a strong Romanian style, and Lin Zhixia believed his recommendation.

When the dish was brought up, Lin Zhixia couldn't stand the knife and fork, and directly chopped the sausage on the plate. She is not accustomed to using knives and forks, and the action of cutting sausages is very brutal and fierce, which contrasts greatly with her innocent and lovely appearance.

It seems that she is not dining in a restaurant in the city center, but picking up a prey caught by her in the wild. She chopped the sausage into chunks, dipped it in the soup, put it in the tortilla, and bit down firmly-she was satisfied and it tasted good.

"Is it delicious?" Luo Ying asked her.

"It's delicious!" Lin Zhixia replied repeatedly.

Luo Ying smiled and asked her: "Compared to your food at home?"

Lin Zhixia said in her heart: "Mom cooks the best food. I want to go home quickly and see my parents and brothers soon."

Lin Zhixia's short sentence triggered the homesickness of his teammates.

After the meal, they rushed to the market to pick gifts for their relatives and friends.

Romania joined the European Union in January 2007. However, the currency of Romania is not the euro, but the "leuromnesc" issued by their country, which translates to Romanian Lei in Chinese.

Before Lin Zhixia set off, he exchanged leu equivalent to 400 yuan at the Bank of China. For Lin Zhixia, four hundred yuan is already a huge sum of money. She wants to bring gifts to her parents, brother, Jiang Yubai, teachers and classmates. She was dazzled by the various commodities in the market, and Senior Sister Luo Ying acted as her adviser.

She bought some affordable and good-looking things and packed the book in a bulging bag.

Returning to the hotel in the evening, Lin Zhixia took a bath and sat by the window watching the sunset in a foreign country.

The color of the sunset glow was red like a fire, the church spire was soaring into the clouds, a clear bell sounded in the distance, and all the birds in the sky flew back to their nests. Lin Zhixia couldn't help thinking, at this time, are parents and brothers asleep? Are they still worried about her?

She feels like an arrow at home.

The day before returning home, the final results of the Romanian Mathematics Masters were released.

Lin Zhixia has joys and worries.

The good news is that her teammates played well. They successfully won the first prize of the team, and the total score surpassed the Russian team. Russia is not even second, second place is the Serbian team.

The worry is that Lin Zhixia's total score ranked first, tied with Russian player Alexandrov.

Even so, Lin Zhixia can win the gold medal. But she is not the only champion in 2007. When she saw the result, she was stunned. Alexandrov might really be smarter than her. Because she had read a paper related to the sixth question, which was equivalent to knowing the answer in advance. And Alexandrov may have come up with a rigorous theory on the spot. In a short period of time, he maintained a stable state and gave full play to his advantages.

Lin Zhixia began to reflect on her competitive mentality. She didn't care about winning or losing, or the answer to the question. However, at the Romanian Masters in 2007, she placed too much emphasis on the results, instead neglecting the thinking itself and the beauty of mathematics.

Lin Zhixia deeply analyzes herself. She recalled what Alexandrov had said to her in her mind, tried to slow down his speech, and suddenly understood what he wanted to express.

It turned out to be so!

Du Cunkang is right, Alexandrov is indeed very powerful.

However, his teammates lost to Lin Zhixia's teammates.

Team finals are not a fight alone.

Lin Zhixia felt that the gold medal on her neck was heavy.

Du Cunkang failed the exam on the first day. He would rather bear the tremendous pressure alone, but also show a happy appearance so that his teammates will not be negatively affected. There are two other teammates-they did not make any mistakes in this competition.

The competition in the international mathematics competition circle is very fierce. Participants may lose some points if they are careless or distracted. One person's failure may drag down the whole, and one person's success cannot save the whole team.

The losing contestants should not be blamed, they have done their best to solve the problem. They earnestly complete the game, which is a kind of "competitive style."

After thinking about it, Lin Zhixia said to her teammates on the return flight, “We were able to win the team first place in this competition, thanks to everyone’s concerted efforts. This team’s gold medal represents I will cherish the sweat everyone put in."

The teammates laughed, and the air was filled with a relaxed atmosphere.

Du Cunkang repeats it again: "I'm glad to be teammates with you..."

Lin Zhixia helped him to fill in this passage: "In the days to come, let us make persistent efforts and reach the next level!"

On the plane, six young students high-five each other to celebrate the brilliant victory of this international competition.

The trip to Romania made Lin Zhixia feel a lot of emotion.

When she really returned home and back to her parents, she couldn’t wait to open the suitcase and give her carefully selected gifts to her parents, and at the same time expressed her unique opinion: "Mom, I am abroad. Always thinking of my mother, my mother must be thinking of me too. I dreamed of my mother two nights, and my mother thought of me for at least two days."

Lin Zeqiu called her coldly: "Mother-wrapping."

My mother immediately criticized: "Lin Zeqiu, your sister has just returned home, so talk to her well."

Dad temporarily closed the supermarket. It's been a long time since he saw his daughter. Her daughter had just returned from abroad, and he suddenly lost the thought of doing business. During the week when Lin Zhixia went abroad, her parents hardly had a good night's sleep.

Lin Zhixia didn't know the situation of her parents this week. She grabbed the contents of the suitcase and said enthusiastically: "I bought a bracelet for my mother, a hat for my father, and an Easter egg for my brother... I also bought two packs of sugar, the day after tomorrow. When I go to school, I distribute candies to teachers and classmates."

Mother liked the bracelet Lin Zhixia gave her very much. My mother looked at that simple bracelet several times, and her mother asked Lin Zhixia: "How much is this thing? Is it expensive? How are you eating and sleeping in Romania, not at the expense of yourself Right?"

Lin Zhixia said honestly: "This is not expensive. I went to the market with my classmates and bought several things. I ate every day in Romania and slept well at night. But I don't like taking long-distance flights. Can't sleep on the plane."

Mom feels very sorry for her: "Xia Xia is so young, running around, she must be very tired. Mom changed your bed sheets, quilt covers and pillowcases. You just washed them last night and dried them this morning. They are still in the sun. It’s been in the sun all morning. You will take a shower later and go to bed early. Tell your mother what you want to eat, and you can eat it when you wake up."

Lin Zhixia opened her bedroom door. Her room was very clean and tidy, as if she had never left. Both the quilt and the pillow have the warm residual temperature left by the sun-that is not only the temperature of the sun, but also the temperature of the home.

Lin Zhixia took a bath, washed away exhaustion and fatigue, and dismissed all clutter. She took the little penguin to bed and relaxed from head to toe. She just closed her eyes, and her brother knocked on her door: "Lin Zhixia."

Lin Zhixia replied in a daze: "What are you doing?"

The brother said: "Lin Zhixia, give me your little penguin."

Lin Zhixia grabbed the quilt and covered her head: "I don't have a little penguin."

The elder brother walked into Lin Zhixia’s bedroom and stood by her bed: "Your penguin followed you and stayed in the hotel outside for a week. How can you still hold it? Your sheets, quilt cover, and pillow case are clean. , You have bathed too, your penguin is dirty."

My brother's words are not very pleasant. But he was right.

Lin Zhixia stuck out her hand from the quilt, and handed the little penguin to her brother. My brother went out carrying the penguin. Lin Zhixia hadn't realized what was wrong. She is too sleepy. She spent more than ten hours on the plane without closing her eyes, and now, lying in the most familiar place, sleepiness swept her mind.

In a daze, she heard the sound of "crashing" coming from the balcony. At this time, she thought that her brother was afraid of penguins and had many nightmares. Her brother might have been a fish in the Antarctic ocean in his previous life. Why did he suddenly take away Lin Zhixia's little penguin plush toy? Is he going to throw away the little penguin?

As soon as this thought came out, Lin Zhixia suddenly became sober. She hurriedly put on her slippers, looking for her brother.

At this moment, Lin Zeqiu was sitting on a bench on the balcony. There is a wooden basin near his feet, which is filled with tap water. He was wearing a pair of rubber gloves and was scrubbing the little penguin with a washing board.

On weekdays, mother often washes the little penguin by hand. This time, Lin Zeqiu took the initiative to take on the task. He washed very hard, and his pockets still contained Romanian eggs that Lin Zhixia gave him.

Lin Zhixia told him that Romanian eggs are a symbol of good luck. She gave the easter eggs to her brother, hoping that his brother would have good luck, pass every exam smoothly, and be happy every day.

While recalling what Lin Zhixia had said, he willingly scrubbed the penguin. He was also going to help Lin Zhixia pack up later, and put the things she brought back in order.

Lin Zeqiu raised his trousers, moved the water basin, and cold water splashed on his ankle. He heard Lin Zhixia's voice: "Brother, are you afraid of penguins?"

Lin Zeqiu suddenly raised his head: "Aren't you sleeping?"

Lin Zhixia yawned: "I heard you using the washboard."

"I quarreled you? It will be over soon." Lin Zeqiu turned on the faucet on the balcony and flushed the little penguin directly.

Just as Lin Zhixia was about to step onto the balcony, Lin Zeqiu stopped and said, "Go back and close your bedroom door. Don't come over, the ground is very damp."

"Thank you brother. You are the best brother." She said solemnly.

Lin Zeqiu wore rubber shoes and soaked his hands in the basin. The temperature was low in early March, and the cold wind passed through the gap in the window and gently blew his neck. He lowered his head halfway, and his wrist slipped another inch into the cold water. He did not respond, but said in a lower than usual voice: "Okay, don't talk to me, go back to sleep."

"Okay, brother also has to rest early." Lin Zhixia agreed.

My brother was so afraid of penguins, his temperament changed drastically tonight, so virtuous and considerate to help the little penguin bath. Why is this? Lin Zhixia thought about it a little bit, and came up with a reason—perhaps because the gift Lin Zhixia gave to her brother deeply moved him.

In fact, Lin Zhixia bought two Easter eggs.

She gave one of them to her brother.

The other easter egg was handed over to Jiang Yubai by her.

At the beginning of March, a huge banner was raised on the campus of Provincial No. 1 Middle School, with a red background and yellow text saying "Warm congratulations to our school student Lin Zhixia for winning the 2007 Romanian Mathematics Masters individual championship and team first prize!"

Lin Zhixia carried her schoolbag and passed by calmly in front of the banner.

She heard classmates of all grades discussing her own voice. Some people called her the "God of Mathematics in the second grade", and others called her the "Little Princess of Competition." She was amused by those exaggerated titles. She ran in the teaching building of the junior high school and happily ran into the second (seventeenth) class of junior high school.

At 7:30 in the morning, Jiang Yubai had arrived at school. The seat next to him is vacant. Lin Zhixia came to him without hesitation and called him in a smiling tone: "Jiang Jiang Jiang Yu Bai!"

Jiang Yubai was startled. He took out the stationery box and teaching materials, put them on the table, and responded casually: "Lin Lin Lin Lin Lin Zhi Xia."

Lin Zhixia took out a Romanian egg from her pocket. She pushed the eggshell with her fingers, causing the egg to roll in front of Jiang Yubai's eyes.

She looked at him and said to him: "Jiang Yubai, this is a gift I brought back to you from Romania. This kind of egg represents good luck. You must have heard of the origin of the egg. It is part of Easter. This symbol also symbolizes the spring when everything is awakened. I hope Jiang Yubai will always have good luck and live in the spring sunshine forever. The sunshine will clear away all the haze and fill your future with light."

"So are you," Jiang Yubai held the egg, "your future will be full of light."

Jiang Yubai seemed to appreciate the gift Lin Zhixia gave him. He put the colored eggs in the stationery box and took them out to play with them from time to time. He also poked the egg with his fingertips and let the egg spin gently on his table.

The nearby classmates saw it and wanted to borrow the easter egg to play with, but Jiang Yubai strictly refused. He found many reasons. In short, no classmate could take the egg from Jiang Yubai's hands.

Jiang Yubai had played Easter eggs, and Lin Zhixia gave him the gold medal of the Romanian Masters. He opened his schoolbag and handed Lin Zhixia the life record of this period. Lin Zhixia also put her notebook in his drawer.

"Sure enough, we didn't separate," Lin Zhixia hugged the notebook, "No matter where Captain Lin Zhixia goes, she will return to that spaceship."

Jiang Yubai flipped through Lin Zhixia's Romanian travel notes, and concluded very cooperatively: "Captain Lin Zhixia ended his Romanian expedition and won gold medals and Easter eggs."

"This Saturday, can I go to your house to play?" Lin Zhixia asked.

"Yes." Jiang Yubai gave a very positive answer.

Jiang Yubai originally thought that Lin Zhixia won the Romanian Masters championship, and that he would be too busy to see anyone back this time. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhixia still remembered the agreement between them—by the way, Lin Zhixia would not forget it. She can remember everything.

Since last month, Jiang Yubai has been preparing to entertain Lin Zhixia. At the beginning of this month, he greeted his parents in advance. His mother advised him not to invite Lin Zhixia alone, but to bring other classmates or friends. Jiang Yubai declined his mother's proposal. His mother didn't say anything, but his uncle said: "The little girl comes to our house alone, but someone must accompany you..."

Jiang Yubai relayed his uncle's words to Lin Zhixia.

Lin Zhixia and Jiang Yubai have known each other for three years. She carefully observed Jiang Yubai's words and deeds, and to be honest, she believed in his character and demeanor very much.

Therefore, on Saturday morning, when Jiang Yubai arrived at the gate of Ancheng District in his car, he only saw Lin Zhixia. Lin Zhixia carried her schoolbag and ran towards him.

She said: "I told my parents that I am going to my classmates to play. Mom and Dad agreed, but I didn't tell my brother. If my brother guessed that I was going to play with you, my brother would not allow me to go out."

Jiang Yubai did not expect Lin Zeqiu to be so hostile to him. Coincidentally, he didn't have a good impression of Lin Zeqiu either.

He changed the subject and talked to Lin Zhixia about the Romanian Masters. Lin Zhixia described the details of the topic with interest, and Jiang Yubai followed her thoughts on mathematics. Before they knew it, they arrived at Jiang Yubai's manor.

Jiang Yubai got off the car first. He opened the car door and led Lin Zhixia out of the parking lot.

This is a peaceful Saturday morning. The manor is full of green grass and blooming flowers. The last time Lin Zhixia visited Jiang Yubai's house to play, he did not notice the spectacular beauty of the back garden. She watched as she walked, amazed: "Jiang Yubai, your garden is so beautiful!"

"The scenery in summer is better." Jiang Yubai commented objectively.

Lin Zhixia asked him: "What flowers will bloom in summer?"

Jiang Yubai said: "There are lotus flowers in the pond."

Lin Zhixia looked at the pond in the distance. In the middle of the pond is a statue of a black horse running on its hoofs. The black horse is stepping on a rock. Two holes are opened on the left and right sides of the rock, and clear water is sprayed down. This is the fountain of the rich.

The gardeners in the garden are working. They meticulously trimmed the shrubs and cut out very ingenious shapes. Lin Zhixia looked around, dizzy. Jiang Yubai was still leading her way. When she came to the door of the private museum, she held the "museum pass" and took a step forward with a sense of ritual.

Lin Zhixia said cheerfully: "Thank you for the pass, Jiang Yubai."

Jiang Yubai opened the glass door until Lin Zhixia stepped into the room, he let go and closed the door, and told Lin Zhixia again: "That's a permanent pass."
