CHAPTER 204: 091 FINALLY SAW THE LIGHT_4

No matter whether Jiang Shengyao advances or retreats, he’s always within President Lan’s control.

Sure enough, the older ginger is spicier.

Lan Man shook her head, "I just hope that one day, he can understand my painstaking intentions."

"The young master is still young. He’ll understand when he grows up."

"By the way, President Lan, Mrs. Liu’s assistant contacted us. Mrs. Liu is spearheading a charity project to provide educational support in major universities across Qingzhou. She hopes Lanya High School can be the first stop for the project."

Lan Man sneered, "Our Mrs. Liu really is quite the philanthropist."

Her tone, however, was entirely sarcastic.

The so-called charity project is nothing more than a scam to profit without any investment.

The money is hers, the accolades go to Helian Yu, and the scheme is brilliantly calculated.

But since she’s Mrs. Liu, there’s no shortage of people willingly handing money over to her—some even doing so enthusiastically.

Otherwise, you might end up being marked down in her little notebook, and even the smallest obstacle she creates for you could be a massive headache.

This time, Helian Yu came knocking directly, clearly aiming to get money.

"After all these years, this woman is still playing by the same rules." Lan Man’s tone carried some annoyance.

No matter how much she disliked it, she still had to obediently hand over the money.

This is the gap between classes.

No matter how much money you have, it can’t compare to power.

"Check out the situation in Jingzhou. See if there’s any opportunity there."

Shen You’an hadn’t forgotten Luuo Yunqi. On the contrary, she remembered this girl vividly.

According to Qi Baotan, Luuo Yunqi had an incredible talent for acting, was very smart, and could memorize even the longest lines after reading them once. By the end, Director Cen had taken quite a liking to her, saying she was born for this industry. If she didn’t have to return to school, Director Cen even wanted to recommend her to his director friends who were prepping new projects.

This put Qi Baotan under immense pressure in the production crew. Luckily, she had a stable mindset and was diligent and pragmatic, which kept her from being overshadowed by Luuo Yunqi. Overall, as the supporting actress, the performance of the two leveled out.

During her time in the elevator at the Blue Sky Hotel in Chunzhou, Shen You’an overheard Luuo Yunqi talking with Tian Wei. So when she saw Luuo Yunqi at Lanya High School, she wasn’t surprised.

But what Luuo Yunqi might think upon seeing Shen You’an was not something Shen You’an could control.

[An’an, math is really hard. I’m crying to death. ┭┮﹏┭┮.]

Qi Baotan sent a message on WeChat.

Attached was a photo. The photo showed a math problem.

It was a spatial geometry question asking to calculate the surface area and volume of cone frustums, cylinders, and prisms.

Such questions require drawing three-view diagrams to reconstruct the object and then calculate it, which demands strong spatial awareness. Unfortunately, this was precisely Qi Baotan’s weak spot—she felt like her brain was about to explode and still couldn’t draw.

Shen You’an glanced at the problem and picked up a piece of scrap paper before lowering her head to start drawing.

Her strokes were skillful, and her three-view diagrams were even more precise and visually appealing than those drawn by art students, as if they had come to life.

Gu Bichen casually glanced over and was immediately stunned.

On the day of school registration, he had seen Shen You’an draw. To be fair, she had undeniable talent.

Her casually drawn three-view diagram looked like it could participate in a competition.

The simplest challenges often test one’s skills the most.

Gu Bichen suddenly realized that spatial geometry is typically taught in the second year of high school.

Shen You’an wrote the steps clearly—object diagram combined with plane diagram, first pushing forward and then reversing, and finally substituting into formulas. The process was even more refined than the standard answer.

She snapped a photo and sent it to Qi Baotan.

Qi Baotan quickly replied: [Ahhh, An’an, you’re amazing. I can understand everything you wrote. You’re the best teacher ever. Love you.]
