Chapter 253: 253 Precious Jewels Ahead (First Update)

Hearing the voice coming through the loudspeakers, Lin Xiaoyue panicked and just froze on the spot!

At this moment, she didn’t even know what to do!

She had said that if that good-for-nothing didn’t withdraw from the competition, she would!

Was she really going to miss this competition because of that good-for-nothing?

She had only intended to scare that good-for-nothing and never truly wanted to withdraw from this competition.

This was a great opportunity to showcase her talent, how could she just miss it!

But the words had been spoken, what’s said is said, like water spilled. If she stepped on stage now, how would she ever make her mark at South Bridge No.2 Middle School in the future?

The announcement came through the loudspeakers for the second time, "Number 19, contestant from Grade 12 Class 3, Lin Xiaoyue, please come on stage to give your speech!"

If called for the third time and she did not go on stage, it would be considered an automatic forfeiture.

"Lin Xiaoyue, hurry up and go on stage to speak, it’s your turn," Teacher Lin urged Lin Xiaoyue toward the stage.

"No!" Lin Xiaoyue struggled, "Teacher Lin, I’ve said that I will not go on stage to speak if that good-for-nothing doesn’t drop out of the competition!"

Though she spoke these words, Lin Xiaoyue’s steps involuntarily moved towards the entrance, pushed by Teacher Lin.

"Oh dear," Teacher Lin, sweating with urgency, pushed Lin Xiaoyue while speaking, "What time is it now, why must you risk your future just for a good-for-nothing? Besides, didn’t that good-for-nothing audaciously claim that her ranking would be above yours? At times like this, how can you back out? You should win gloriously and take everyone by surprise!"

"Exactly, exactly," the short-haired girl also pushed Lin Xiaoyue, "Xiaoyue, hurry on stage! You can’t miss such a great opportunity over a good-for-nothing! Plus, have you forgotten? The last place will result in expulsion, so just enjoy watching that good-for-nothing being kicked out of school when the time comes."

In fact, Lin Xiaoyue had long wanted to go on stage but just couldn’t find a way to step down gracefully. Now, she went down the steps provided by Teacher Lin and the short-haired girl, "Okay, Teacher, since you and the teacher both say so, I’ll stop taking issue with that good-for-nothing for now and go on stage first."

Seeing her going on, Teacher Lin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Xiaoyue walked step by step towards the interior, her face still wearing a cold demeanor, lightly tilting her chin up.

Looking every bit the proud and aloof beauty.

If that good-for-nothing was unwilling to leave, she would exert her utmost effort! She would thoroughly crush that good-for-nothing!

This time, the championship would definitely be hers!

She wanted to witness that good-for-nothing being expelled from South Bridge No.2 Middle School with her own eyes!

Thinking this way, the corners of Lin Xiaoyue’s mouth lifted into a faint smile, her eyes still very cold, becoming an ice beauty.

The stage lights were bright but not blinding, very soft.

Glancing at the dense crowd below the stage, the surrounding cameras, reporters, and the judges and officials seated at the judges’ table, Lin Xiaoyue stood even straighter, not the least bit timid, but instead, a sense of superiority began to sprout in her heart.

Able to remain so calm in the face of such a spectacular scene, perhaps she was the only one capable, right?

After all, she had seen big occasions before.

If that good-for-nothing came on stage, would they wet themselves in fright?

Even if they didn’t wet themselves, they’d probably be so scared that they’d have shaky legs and would be unable to speak, right?

That good-for-nothing thinks they can compete with her?

Nothing but a pipe dream!

Lin Xiaoyue’s appearance undoubtedly pushed the atmosphere on site to another climax. As the acknowledged aloof school belle of South Bridge No.2 Middle School, she usually behaved very distantly, with no scandals at school, and her academic performance was excellent, almost becoming a legend in South Bridge No.2 Middle School.

There were even many students who had only heard of Lin Xiaoyue’s name and had never actually seen her in person.

Now that they saw her, they all sighed inwardly, the school belle truly lived up to the title ’school belle,’ indeed worthy of the name.

Moreover, to be so composed in front of the cameras, the school leaders, and foreign judges.

"Kai, I have to say, this Lin Xiaoyue really does have the look of an aloof school belle," Li Erpang, sitting next to Wang Kai, raised his hand to stroke his chin, his face contemplative.

Wang Kai snorted coldly, "It’s just a facade." Ever since he had seen Chu Jin, whenever he saw another girl, he couldn’t help but compare her to Chu Jin and ultimately found that no one seemed to possess that serene aura.

Li Erpang continued, "Kai, I heard that Chu Jin is going to speak on stage as well."

Hearing this, Wang Kai, who had initially appeared disinterested, now showed a hint of curiosity and quickly became spirited. He sat up straight and said, "Are you serious?"

Xiang Dong, who was sitting nearby, also became interested and turned his head to listen carefully to the dialogue between the two.

"Of course, it’s true," Li Erpang said, patting his chest before continuing, "Don’t you trust my information?"

Excitement glinted in the depths of Li Erpang’s eyes.

"This is really interesting," Wang Kai said with a slight squint in his eyes, a bright light flashing through the darkness of his pupils.

Wang Kai had fully researched Chu Jin in recent days and was naturally aware of the changes in Chu Jin, but he was still a little surprised when he learned that Chu Jin was going to give a speech today.

After all, just a month ago, Chu Jin had been a lackluster loser.

However, now he was quite looking forward to what kind of surprise Chu Jin would bring him.

After a brief self-introduction on stage, Lin Xiaoyue dove into her main topic.

Her pronunciation was very standard, she articulated every word with clarity, and she always maintained an appropriate smile on her face, along with a confidence that seemed a foregone conclusion.

Her writing style was very lively, the theme of her essay was unmistakably clear, and she was completely in the zone.

Beautiful words continuously flowed through the microphone into the ears of everyone present.

Several judges had already exchanged looks and then nodded in satisfaction.

"The school beauty is so impressive! My ears are going to get pregnant."

"The school beauty really brings honor to South Bridge No.2 Middle School!"

Many little fanboys and fangirls in the audience had already begun to buzz with discussion.

Feeling these admiring gazes, Lin Xiaoyue’s chin rose even higher.

"This student isn’t bad, a fine seedling indeed. You can tell she really has a good foundation."

"Her oral abilities are indeed decent, and the content is very innovative, much better than the previous ones."

"Truly, her level is several notches higher at least."

The judges shared their opinions with each other, seeing glimmers of appreciation in each others’ eyes.

Lin Xiaoyue’s presentation was indeed superior to every student before her, by more than just a few streets, and that was the reason for her arrogance.

Because she had the capital to be.

Teacher Lin, standing in the audience, watched her student with a very satisfied expression, her eyes brimming with relief.

"Thats, all, for, my, presentation, Thank——" upon finishing the concluding words, Lin Xiaoyue slightly bent forward to bow.

Before she could straighten up, a deafening round of applause broke out from the audience, more intense than at any previous point.

Nearly everyone’s face bore a smile.

Especially the students from Class Three, who were so excited that they stood up, as if they couldn’t wait to proclaim to the whole world that the person on stage was from their class.

Lin Xiaoyue left the platform amidst triumphant cheers, walking off with an elegant gait.

By that time, the loudspeaker was already calling for contestant number 20 to come up for her speech.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoyue’s lips curled into a scornful smile. As she passed by the next student, she almost didn’t deign to give them a proper glance. With her outstanding performance already set, the rest were nothing but jesters by comparison. Who could surpass her?

The rest were merely her foils.

One contestant followed another on stage, and indeed, their performances could only be considered excellent at best.

In comparison with Lin Xiaoyue, they fell far short.

Watching the contestants on stage, the judges couldn’t help but show an air of disinterest.

"Hey," Wang Kai said, slapping Li Erpang on the head with a hint of impatience, "Didn’t you say Chu Jin was also going to get on stage? Why haven’t we seen her yet?"

"Don’t rush, Kai, there’s still plenty of time. It doesn’t end until 12:30, and it’s only 10:30 now," replied Li Erpang.
