Chapter 433: Chapter 433 - 433 The Clown Turns Out to Be Myself_l

Translator: 549690339

The two teams’ gazes clashed, invisible sparks flickering in the air.

This was about personal and school honor, as well as the chance to compete in an international contest.

Both sides brought their full strength to bear.

With the referee’s call of ‘start,’ their computers connected.

Viruses and antivirus software launched simultaneously.

Jiang Xu, An Nuonuo, and Lu Chao immediately fixed their eyes on their computer screens.

It was the same on the other side.

Countless bits of information flashed before their eyes.

Those numbers were like soldiers charging fearlessly into battle, engaging in fierce conflict.

An Nuonuo subconsciously clenched her fists tightly, holding her breath.

She knew how much this competition meant to Jiang Xu.

If successful, they would go abroad for the competition.

It wasn’t just the chance to win a hefty prize, but also to spar with formidable experts from other countries, broaden their horizons, and possibly bring glory to their nation.

The opposition was even more tense, after all, Zhi Jiang University had won the championship for many consecutive sessions already.

If they were defeated by them, they probably wouldn’t have the face to return to their school.

Time trickled by.

The strength of both parties was continuously eroding.

Their ‘troops’ became increasingly depleted, their ‘walls’ riddled with holes.

The outcome was about to be decided.

Everyone on the scene was incredibly tense.

Especially the high-ranking officials from Magic University, who had their hearts in their throats.

How the school would develop from here on out depended on Jiang Xu and his team!

“We won,” Chen Xiaolong suddenly started laughing, “Their ‘troops’ are almost gone, and it’s impossible for them to breach our defenses completely.”

Wang Shiya nodded.

A rare smile appeared on her usually cool and detached face.

With one smile, it was as if flowers were blooming in profusion.

Chen Xiaolong instantly became a smitten fool.

However, just when they thought they had victory in their grasp, the situation on the field suddenly shifted.

A new power surged, joining the fray.

Chen Xiaolong and Wang Shiya’s faces changed drastically.

This new force, unstoppable as a bamboo splitter, swept through and shattered their painstakingly built defenses.

“Brother Xu, when did you…” An Nuonuo looked at Jiang Xu in shock.

Lu Chao was also pleasantly surprised.

Jiang Xu smiled lightly, “Just a little trick I kept in reserve.”

Within a laugh, the winner was decided.

Jiang Xu’s team had won.

Chen Xiaolong slumped powerlessly into his chair, his eyes hollow.

Wang Shiya looked at Jiang Xu with complex emotions.

A woman who had always strived to excel, defeated twice in succession by

Jiang Xu.

The impact on her was not small.

At Magic University, from the higher-ups to the students, everyone breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Then came the deafening cheers.

“Hahaha, we finally won!”

“Jiang is the man!”

“You’re my hero!”

-We can finally hold our heads high, let’s see if Zhi Jiang University’s people

can still be arrogant in front of us!”

In contrast, the students from Zhi Jiang University had faces of gloom, as if the sky had fallen.

“We’re done,” Chen Xiaolong rubbed his face vigorously, “We’re definitely going

to get scolded to death when we get back.”

Wang Shiya quickly gathered her composure, stepped forward, and extended

her hand to Jiang Xu, “Congratulations.”

This was the first time she had taken the initiative to offer her hand to a male of her age.

This woman has a vision larger than many men s.

Jiang Xu thought to himself as he reached out and shook her hand briefly.

The contact was brief, without a moment s linger.

Lu Chao also shamelessly reached out his hand to shake Wang Shiya’s.

But she simply ignored him and instead shook An Nuonuo’s hand.

Lu Chao:”…”

The higher-ups from Magic University arrived.

One by one, they conversed with Jiang Xu and the others with smiles on their faces, praising them heavily in public.

Especially Jiang Xu, the higher-ups from Magic University seemed to like him more and more.

He wasn’t just a student, but a talisman and a mascot for the school.

On the spot, the higher-ups announced a series of rewards for Jiang Xu and the other two.

This included a massive amount of academic credits.

Even if they didn’t attend a single class in the next few years, they wouldn’t fail any courses and would be able to graduate smoothly.

What Jiang Xu cared about the most was participating in the international computer competition.

It involved winning a prize.

The school’s higher-ups told Jiang Xu with a smile that the event would take place in three weeks’ time.

The location of the competition was chosen to be Singapo.

They would immediately submit Jiang Xu and the others’ names, and when the time came, they could go straight to the competition.

Wang Shiya extended an invitation to Jiang Xu, “I’ll treat you and your girlfriend to dinner tonight.”

Chen Xiaolong felt as if he had split in half when he heard this.

It was the first time Wang Shiya had invited a guy to have dinner with her!

Though it wasn’t just the two of them, to Chen Xiaolong, it was still hard to swallow.

He squeezed out a smile uglier than crying, “Can I join you?”

Wang Shiya simply glanced at him before averting her gaze.

Chen Xiaolong was heartbroken.

Lu Chao chuckled, “Can I come along with you guys?”

Chen Xiaolong wrapped an arm around his neck, speaking fiercely, “What grade do you think you are, to deserve to eat with Shiya!”

Lu Chao: “Let me go, you super bootlicker.”

Chen Xiaolong: “I’m not a bootlicker, that’s called being affectionate!” Lu Chao whispered, ‘TH take you to a nice place tonight, filled with fair-skinned, beautiful, long-legged girls who are university students in their early twenties.”

Chen Xiaolong: “Bro!”

Look, this is how unadorned and straightforward the friendship between men is established.

Jiang Xu accepted Wang Shiya’s invitation.

It seemed to him that apart from being a bit cold and proud, this woman had no other flaws.

Jiang Xu was interested in the family behind her; building a good relationship could prove useful in the future.

Wang Shiya probably harbored the same thoughts.

That evening, the three of them had dinner at a Cantonese restaurant.

Wang Shiya wasn’t one to initiate conversation much.

An Nuonuo suffered from mild social anxiety, so Jiang Xu was the one livening up the atmosphere the whole time.

When the meal was nearly finished, Jiang Xu took the initiative to discuss business, “Miss Wang, would you be interested in collaborating and investing in my company?”

“I’ve carefully looked into your information,” Wang Shiya said, putting down her chopsticks. “You’re involved in many industries. Which one do you want me to invest in?”

“The entertainment industry,” Jiang Xu said earnestly. “It’s a field with great prospects for the future. Miss Wang, are you interested?”

Even though he had made peace with Zhang Xiaofeng.

But in business, there are no eternal friends or eternal enemies. Moreover, he and Zhang Xiaofeng couldn’t even be considered friends. Who knew if they would come to blows again over something in the future? So, Jiang Xu wanted to bring in another potent ally.

Although their interaction hadn’t been long, Jiang Xu believed he wasn’t mistaken about Wang Shiya being worth collaborating with.

“Yes, indeed.” Wang Shiya nodded slightly. “I will consider it, but right now I have something I want to discuss with your girlfriend. Could you please step out for a bit?”
