章節 34: I Agree
Tao Wen took out Mo Li's test paper and the notice for IMO.
"I designed the questions for the mock exam myself, they're slightly more difficult than the real test. The best student in class, erm, that Qiao Qing, can't finish my paper but Mo Li did." Tao Wen handed the paper to Mo Yi and Mo Yun before he continued, "She not only finished the paper, she did it with flying colors. She managed to solve a few problems in ways that I never even imagined."
Are, are we talking about my daughter? Mo Yi could not believe his ears, after all, Mo Li's math result had always been a concern of his. Whenever he asked why she scored 0 in her tests, the answers he got were direct and straightforward. I didn't know how to answer them, and I didn't want to.
Therefore, it came as a total surprise to him that Mo Li actually was very good in math. This was a surprise for Mo Yun as well. Mo Yun took a cursory glance of the test paper and it was indeed above standards. But Mo Li used to tell them that she didn't like math, she'd faint when she saw so many numbers... So what really happened here?
At the thought of this, Mo Yun raised his eyes and took a deep look at Mo Li. Could it be that we have misunderstood Mo Li all along? It caused her to clam up and the string of bad results was a silent protest?
Instantly this reminded of Mo Yun of Lil' Three's car accident. Initially Mo Li also did raise protest but for some reason, she suddenly gave up her argument and submitted to the guilt.
Now that enough time had passed, Mo Yun could also look at the incident more clearly. The evidence was lacking and all they had was Mo Zheng's accusation. However, the day of the accident was raining heavily, it was not impossible for Mo Zheng to have seen the wrong person or perhaps it was someone who took on Mo Li's disguise.
Mo Yun gripped his fists. Mo Li has been acting very much unlike herself lately, is it because we have really gotten everything wrong? And that is the reason behind her sudden change? After Lil' Three's conditions recover, I'll have to ask him about the incident in more details.
In any case, that did not explain why Tao Wen had paid them a house visit. "Prof. Tao, thank you for coming to tell us about the IMO, is that all the reason why you're here today?"
Tao Wen took a glance at Mo Li. He could recognize the stubbornness and wilfulness in the girl but for the sake of her future, he still hoped that Mo Li could represent the school to participate in the IMO. If she could get the first place, she might get offered a guaranteed admission into a good university.
"It's like this. Our school needs someone to participate in the Pearl River City IMO. The person who gets the first place here will be given a chance to enter competition on the district and eventually the national scale."
Mo Yi was stunned. This was something that would only happen to his three sons in the past. This was the first time such an opportunity would be offered to his daughter.
"This is a good news, of course, she'll participate in it!" Mo Yun also got his guaranteed admission to his alma mater thanks to his first place result in the International Chemistry Olympiad (IChO) and International Physics Olympiad (IPhO).
"But..." Tao Wen was anxious before he arrived at Mo Family, after all Mo Li was quite adamant this afternoon. However, after getting the positive reception from her father and brother, Tao Wen saw a chance for a fight.
"Mo Li, don't tell me you have given up on this precious opportunity?" Mo Yi noted Tao Wen's troubled expression and knew that the problem must have laid with his daughter. "This chance doesn't come that often. You gave it up like that without a second thought?"
"Father, I wish to spend more time studying at home. I do not want to focus entirely on math, every subject deserves my attention." Mo Li answered honestly, although the other subjects were not the kind that was taught at her school... no matter how useful they were. Now, Mo Li's current goal was to help Mo Zheng heal as soon as possible.
"The IMO is tough but with your current standard, we can come up with a set of daily training questions. When you're done with them, you'll have the rest of the day to focus on your other subjects."
We'll finish these math problems as soon as possible, then you'll have time to follow on your medical research! The proclamation suddenly echoed in Mo Li's mind. As mentioned earlier, in Mo Li's original life, there was a math teacher who saw the potential in Mo Li. But at the time, Mo Li only had the interest in forensic and medical science, she couldn't care less about anything else. She rejected the teacher many times until he gave up on Mo Li. He was technically the first mentor who had faith in Mo Li but he was soon swept away by Mo Li's determination to push forward in medicine.
Mo Li ended up with double masters and were applying to Princeton for experimental physics when she transmigrated.
Thinking back, the teacher was more than Mo Li's mentor, he was also her good friend. There were few moments when Mo Li's schedule slowed down and when she was alone with nothing but her research that she wondered what had happened to him. She regretted breaking off that relationship.
To think that this situation would represent itself again in this manner, it was quite surprising.
"Mo Li, this is a good opportunity for you. If you are willing, I will have your older brother and second brother help tutor you in your other subjects so you wouldn't fall behind." Mo Yi suggested.
