Want to Win the Prize Money

The Su Family's old residence.

Old Master Su stared at Lin Xuan, who was sleeping, and was utterly stunned.

"Old Su, didn't you say he was quite impressive? How come he gave up right away?" Old Master Li snorted.

Old Master Su furrowed his brows tightly.

Lin Xuan wasn’t the type to be so careless.

"Old Chen, Old Li, Old Liu, do you think he might be doing this on purpose? Maybe he’s planning to make a grand impression," Su Guoxiong felt that things weren’t as simple as they seemed.

Grandpa Chen shook his head, "It’s difficult. It’s already been fifty minutes since the competition started. To finish these ten problems in such a short time, he’d have to be a genius."

Hearing Grandpa Chen's words, Su Guoxiong's hopes for Lin Xuan winning first place faded significantly.

After all, Grandpa Chen was once a big name in the computer science department.

If he said it was difficult, then it must truly be difficult.

But it didn’t matter. It was just a computer competition. Lin Xuan was a business genius, after all. As long as Su Hua liked him, even if he were a good-for-nothing with no bad habits, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

"Old Su," Grandpa Chen said impatiently, "It’s already afternoon. Can we start eating? This competition isn’t worth watching."

He had been craving the food made by the Su family’s chef, especially since this time they had prepared some of his favorite dishes.

Just then, Su Guoxiong noticed that Lin Xuan had woken up.

His eyes lit up.

"Eat? Everyone, pay attention! Lin Xuan is about to show his true skills." Perhaps his future grandson-in-law was about to make a grand move.

But instead, they saw Lin Xuan confessing his feelings to a girl at the competition venue.

The three old men: "..."

"Young people these days," Grandpa Chen shook his head, "They really don’t know how to behave."

Old Master Su, however, was full of smiles. "What do you know? This is called romance."

"Old Su, something’s off with you. Why are you so focused on this Lin Xuan?" Old Master Li asked with a look of surprise.

Su Guoxiong snorted.

How could he not pay attention? This was his future grandson-in-law!

The competition continued.

Lin Xuan filled an entire page with sweet nothings.

With only fifty minutes left in the competition, Lin Xuan finally started working on the problems.

He leaned back in his chair, looking completely relaxed, his fingers flying across the keyboard.

Lines of code appeared on the screen.

"Lin Xuan is starting to solve the problems," Lin Qingwan said excitedly.

"Yeah, he’s starting," Jiang Shuqin said with disdain in her eyes. "It took him seventy minutes just to figure out how to do the first problem."

"Lin Li started on the first problem right away and finished it in just a few minutes. Look, he’s already on the seventh problem now."

When talking about Lin Li, Jiang Shuqin’s eyes were filled with pride.

The son she had raised was clearly much more outstanding than Lin Xuan, who had grown up in an orphanage.

Su Hua’s lips curved into a faint smile. "Lin Xuan is getting serious now."

Jiang Qing remained calm.

With so little time left, there was no way Lin Xuan could finish.

The three million yuan prize was as good as hers.

"This speed..." The host was stunned.

One minute and twenty seconds.

Lin Xuan finished the first problem.

Another minute and twenty-something seconds.

He completed the second problem.

While solving the problems, he barely seemed to think, and his typing speed was several times faster than everyone else’s.

"Lin Xuan’s speed is incredible," Lin Qingwan exclaimed in surprise.

Jiang Shuqin sneered, "He spent over an hour just thinking about the answers. Copying them down now, of course he’s fast."

Lin Qingwan carefully watched the content on Lin Xuan’s screen.

Perhaps Lin Xuan would give her a pleasant surprise.

"Everyone, look at the big screen! Lin Xuan has caught up to Lin Li!"

Everyone looked.

He really had caught up.

Boom!

The crowd was shocked.

"I remember he only took about ten minutes to finish seven problems? Isn’t that too fast?"

"Was Lin Xuan just messing around earlier, sleeping and confessing, because he thought he had too much time?"

"No way, absolutely no way. These problems aren’t easy! Solving seven of them in just over ten minutes? I don’t believe it."

"Right, I don’t think it’s possible either. The screen isn’t showing the accuracy rate. I bet he just randomly typed stuff and submitted it."

Lin Xuan had completed the first seven problems in just fifteen minutes!

Lin Li, on the other hand, was still stuck in the middle of the eighth problem. Sweat dripped down his forehead as he stared blankly at the screen, completely clueless about how to proceed.

But it didn’t matter. Among the five competitors, he was the best in computer science.

If he couldn’t solve it, no one else could.

Lin Li glanced at the progress chart to see how the others were doing. Just as he expected, everyone else was still working on the fifth, sixth, or seventh problems.

Wait.

Lin Li frowned.

How had Lin Xuan already finished seven problems?

Just ten minutes ago, his progress was still at zero.

Suddenly, Lin Li’s expression relaxed.

Lin Xuan must have just randomly filled in the answers. There was no way he could have done it that quickly.

Xue Wenbo and Qian Hong, two computer science experts, had been closely watching Lin Xuan’s screen.

He had solved the earlier problems so quickly. They wondered how he would fare with the later ones.

Lin Xuan glanced at the content on his screen.

Without pause, his fingers continued to dance across the keyboard, producing lines of code that were almost dizzying to follow.

"Old Xue, this problem was your creation, right? Did he get it right?" Qian Hong asked curiously.

Xue Wenbo shook his head, "No, the code he wrote is completely different from what I provided."

Qian Hong’s interest in Lin Xuan waned.

He had thought Lin Xuan might have some real talent, but it seemed he was just randomly typing away.

Then again, the problems they had created were so difficult that even experts would struggle to solve them in such a short time.

They had set their expectations too high, hoping to find a genius student.

Qian Hong sighed.

When Lin Xuan moved on to the eighth problem, his speed didn’t slow down at all. However, the code required was more extensive, so it took him a bit longer.

He spent five minutes on the eighth problem.

The ninth and tenth problems each took him about five minutes as well.

Lin Xuan’s progress bar showed 100% completion.

The crowd was stunned.

"He’s done already?"

"Damn, that speed is insane!"

"Tch, you think he’s really that fast? Lin Li’s computer skills are top-notch, and even he took fifty to sixty minutes just to finish the earlier problems. There’s no way Lin Xuan could’ve solved all of them in less than thirty minutes."

No one believed Lin Xuan could have finished so quickly.

Jiang Qing was starting to feel uneasy.

Lin Xuan’s answers looked pretty convincing.

Her three months’ worth of salary and bonuses might actually be at risk...

Lin Xuan finished all ten problems with over twenty minutes to spare.

He glanced at Lin Li.

If Yundu University took second place, there would still be a three million yuan prize.

Tch.

Did Lin Li really think he could take the prize Su Hua had offered?
