Scratching the Palm

Success?

Everyone began to wonder. Was this success referring to Lin Xuan?

Impossible.

Wasn’t this the problem that even international computer masters couldn’t solve after two years of thinking?

How could Lin Xuan have cracked it so effortlessly?

The technician excitedly ran up to the person in charge. “Lin Xuan really succeeded. It’s a perfect answer.”

“What?!”

The success the technician mentioned was truly Lin Xuan’s success!

The person in charge, along with Xue Wenbo, Qian Hong, and the professors from the five universities that made it to the finals, rushed to the computer to check.

Just as the technician had said.

It was perfect!

“This…”

Everyone turned their astonished gazes toward the young man standing nearby. He looked calm, as if everything had been within his expectations.

He was only twenty-one years old!

He had only thought about it for a little over a minute!

He had solved the problem posed by Master Olin in just fifteen minutes!

The person in charge snapped out of his daze and couldn’t help but ask, “Lin Xuan, did you solve this problem at home in the past few days?”

Lin Xuan replied, “If I had solved it at home, I would have gone to Master Oli to claim the prize money already.”

True.

The person in charge nodded in agreement.

After all, it was a million dollars. One would have to rush to Master Oli immediately.

Otherwise, if someone else got there first, you’d have no place to cry.

At this moment, Xue Wenbo and Qian Hong looked at Lin Xuan with burning eyes.

Their gazes were so intense, it was as if they wanted to stuff Lin Xuan into their pockets.

Jiang Qing was also shocked, her mouth hanging open.

Is Young Master Lin this monstrous?

Just a few months ago, she had thought he was useless, but time and time again, he had exceeded her expectations.

Too amazing.

Jiang Qing couldn’t help but glance at Su Hua. Indeed, the man who could catch the attention of someone as extraordinary as Su Hua was no ordinary person.

The person in charge smiled and turned to the professor from Yundu University. “Do you have any more questions?”

“No.”

The Yundu University professor was completely speechless now.

If Lin Xuan could solve the problem posed by Master Oli, there was no way ordinary computer problems could stump him.

Lin Li, standing nearby, looked ashen.

“Impossible. This can’t be.” He muttered in a daze.

His mind was filled with one thought: When did Lin Xuan become so capable?

He had thought he could ruin Lin Xuan’s reputation, but in the end, he was the one who ended up looking like a fool.

The person in charge picked up the microphone and announced, “The results are out. Lin Xuan has achieved a perfect score in the Computer Master competition, and it’s well-deserved.”

“Not only that, but because Lin Xuan solved the problem posed by Master Oli, he will also receive the one million dollars offered by Master Oli.”

At this, the crowd erupted.

One million dollars! That’s almost seven million in Xia Country currency!

Add to that the five million prize money provided by Su Corporation, which means Lin Xuan would walk away from this competition with a total of twelve million.

So much money!

The live stream chat was flooded with “66666.”

Jiang Shuqin’s expression turned grim. Lin Xuan was really this impressive.

Lin Qingwan looked worriedly at Lin Li.

It’s worth celebrating that Xiao Xuan took first place, but Lin Li scored zero in this round, dragging the whole team down. He must be feeling very guilty and upset.

Meanwhile, Su Hua had already arrived backstage.

“Miss Su,” a staff member greeted respectfully. He didn’t know Su Hua’s identity, only that she was the representative sent by Su Corporation to present the awards.

“Hmm.” Su Hua sat down on a chair and casually asked, “Where’s the love letter Lin Xuan wrote on the draft paper during the competition?”

“It’s still on the stage,” the staff member replied.

“Bring it to me. I want to see it,” Su Hua instructed calmly.

“Okay.”

The staff member didn’t dare disobey Su Hua. He quickly went to the stage to retrieve the draft paper.

“Miss Su, here you go,” the staff member handed the draft paper to Su Hua.

Su Hua read the contents over and over, her lips curling into a smile.

Jiang Qing covered her mouth, stifling a laugh.

Although it was a bit bold of Young Master Lin to write a love letter in front of the audience and netizens during the competition, there was no denying that it had indeed pleased Su Hua.

“Miss Su,” the staff member approached Su Hua again, “It’s almost time for you to present the awards.”

“Hmm.”

Su Hua finally tore her gaze away from the love letter and handed it to Jiang Qing.

“Keep it safe.”

“Yes, President Su.”

Jiang Qing understood the importance of this love letter. She carefully placed it in a folder and then into her briefcase.

The staff member was puzzled. Why did Miss Su want Lin Xuan’s love letter?

On stage.

The host held the microphone and said, “I will now reveal Lin Xuan’s answers. You can verify for yourselves whether they are correct or not.”

“Next, let’s invite the winners to the stage.”

Nine students stood in a row, with the students from Shangqing University in the center.

The president of the Computer Association personally presented them with certificates, trophies, and a large red envelope containing the checks provided by Su Corporation.

The two students from Yundu University stared at the red envelope, their eyes green with envy.

Even the last-place team received two million in prize money, with each member getting about seven hundred thousand.

They had performed so well and thought they would at least get three million, but Lin Li had scored zero in the third round.

Now they had nothing.

They couldn’t help but feel resentment toward Lin Li.

The host smiled and said, “Alright, the team awards have been presented. Next, we’ll present the bonus certificate to the top performer of the champion team, Lin Xuan.”

“This will be presented by the representative sent by Su Corporation.”

“Please welcome her.”

Su Hua walked slowly onto the stage.

She was wearing a beige silk strapless dress that perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.

Her slightly wavy black hair cascaded down her back.

Cold and elegant, noble and untouchable, she looked like a goddess descended from above.

The beauty mark at the corner of her right eye added a touch of allure.

Su Hua’s appearance caused gasps of admiration from the audience.

“Holy cow! A beauty! Who is she? I need all her information in thirty seconds!”

“With her here, all the beauties in the entertainment industry seem mediocre.”

“I wonder what kind of man could marry her.”

Lin Xuan was stunned.

Hua Bao, she had actually come to present the award to him personally.

Su Hua handed the certificate and bonus to Lin Xuan.

“Your performance was truly impressive,” Su Hua said in a formal tone.

“Thank you.”

Lin Xuan also pretended not to know her well.

Su Hua extended her hand. “Congratulations.”

“Oh, okay.”

Lin Xuan shook her hand in return.

Su Hua subtly scratched his palm.
