Their game of chess lasted for half an hour, and Han Xiang’s forehead was covered with a layer of sweat. In the end, the old man managed to reel in a win.
“Hahahahaha, as expected of my Han family’s granddaughter!”
Grandpa Han had won. He twirled his beard and laughed happily; his eyes full of praise for Han Xiang.
“It’s all thanks to Grandpa.” Han Xiang stuck out her tongue and laughed as well.
Seeing that the old man still wanted more, Han Xiang thought for a while. “Grandpa, do you know how to play Flip Chess? I’m good at that.”
“What’s Flip Chess?” Grandpa Han was intrigued.
It seemed that Flip Chess was something that hadn’t been introduced to this world yet. Han Xiang took the chess pieces and explained it to Grandpa Han.
“It’s actually a simplified version of chess. The rules are…”
After the first round of Flip Chess was completely dominated by Han Xiang, Grandpa Han understood the game and happily wanted to play a few more rounds with Han Xiang. For a moment, he was actually fascinated by Han Xiang’s new game of Flip Chess.
After playing a few rounds with Grandpa Han, Yang Su reminded her, “Sweetie, it’s time to go to school.”
“Look at my memory!” Grandpa Han slapped his thigh. He almost forgot that his granddaughter was still a junior high school student. After reluctantly sending Han Xiang to the car, Grandpa Han reminded her, “Xiang Xiang, come back after school to continue!”
“Yes, yes! Grandpa, Wait for me!” Han Xiang also stretched out her head to respond to him.
Yang Su happened to be free today, so she took on the task of sending Han Xiang to school. Seeing that Han Xiang was getting along well with the eccentric Grandpa Han, she was very gratified. She smiled and said, “I knew that Xiang Xiang would be liked by Grandpa Han.”
Han Xiang rubbed her face embarrassedly. At this moment, she remembered another thing about Grandpa Han. “Mom, Grandpa’s situation is really…”
‘Is he really not going to live much longer? He was clearly playing chess like a normal old man.’
Yang Su, who was driving, sighed and confirmed the news. “Yes. So everyone should spend more time with Grandpa. Grandpa has been working very hard.”
Yang Su was a medical professor specializing in human immunity at the S City Research Institute. When Grandpa Han’s illness was first discovered, she analyzed Grandpa Han’s body samples and first suggested that Grandpa Han go to a foreign country for treatment, this was because there was no treatment for this type of cancer in the country, and there were no cases of improvement.
Unfortunately, even in M Country, where the medical sector was more developed, there was no way to treat or stabilize Grandpa Han’s illness. They could only send him home to enjoy his last moments.
When she thought of how little time was left for such a sweet old man, Han Xiang felt depressed. Even in the original book, Grandpa Han had never met the original protagonist, Han Xiang, but he had thought of everything for her and left her a legacy.
The Han family’s business empire, which Grandpa Han had spent his entire life building, was gradually disintegrated by their extended family and other forces after his death. Yang Su, who was focused on finding her daughter, fell out with Han Zheng, and the sudden return of the protagonist turned the situation upside down, the Han family could only walk towards extinction.
When she returned to school, Han Xiang found that the banner for the high school entrance exam had already been hung up. After asking, she found out that the high school entrance exam in this world was separated from the college entrance exam by half a year. Her third brother, Han Yang, was going to take the high school entrance exam in one month.
With Han Yang’s intelligence, it was no problem for him to enter Chongde High School, where Han Qi was from. Therefore, the family members were not too worried about Han Yang.
As for Han Xiang, she had once said that she wanted to enter Chongde High School as well. After this period of hard work, everyone had seen her intelligence, but they could not help but worry that Han Xiang would suddenly go “Off-key.” again.
Even Han Qi, who had originally scoffed at her goal, secretly said, “If you have questions that you don’t know, feel free to ask me!”!
However, even if Han Xiang said that she was preparing for it, others would not believe it. In fact, she had recently started to study the third-year syllabus. Getting into Chongde High School was not going to be a problem for her!
Han Xiang was listening to her math class while she was reading a book called “The complete selection of Olympiad Mathematics” when she heard her classmates call out her name. She looked up and realized that the math teacher was asking, “Who is the student who got the best results for this time’s monthly exam?”
Seeing that Han Xiang’s attention had been drawn over, the math teacher said, “Then, please come and share with us your experience in learning math.”
After this period of observation and testing, the teachers found that Han Xiang had a good foundation. Not only was her knowledge sound, but her reaction speed was also very fast. She could answer questions in class no matter how difficult it was.
Han Xiang’s previous zero was purely due to her not caring to turn in her paper. Now that she had shown her strengths, it made the teachers who had been tortured by Han Xiang feel even more honored to teach her. They even got a chance to brag about her improvement to other teachers.
Han Xiang went on stage and felt the students’ gazes upon her. She was already used to the test taking style of this world, so coming up with a speech regarding her learning experience was easy. She started to speak.
“First of all, I think that in order to build a solid foundation in mathematics, we must rely on targeted problem-solving and overcoming our weak points. For example….”
