Chapter 484 Mathematical Olympiad ss


    Xander looked up and met Victor''s eyes without trying to hide anything.


    "Didn''t she say that she was going toe over with the two of you?"


    Victor exined, "Her grades have dropped recently, so Grandpa arranged some tuition sses for


    her. That''s why she can''te at the moment."


    "Oh, what kind of sses?"


    "Mathematical olympiad sses."


    Xander remained silent.


    …


    The next day, Grace arrived at her mathematical olympiad ss disinterestedly. "This is so hard.


    Can I just note?"


    She had just finished speaking when she looked up to see Xander sitting in her seat. Grace rubbed


    her eyes and went up to him in disbelief. She asked, "Xander, what are you doing here?"


    Xander didn''t even look up as he said, "I heard that you can get extra credit if you do the


    mathematical olympiad, so Mom signed up for me."


    Grace was amused at his plight. "I thought I was the only one who was suffering, but I didn''t expect


    Aunt Hestia to do the same to you!"


    "Yep, we''re in the same boat."


    "It''s just that this math olympiad thing is really hard!"


    Grace wanted to cry. When could she stop learning this?


    Xander smiled in resignation, took her textbook, and flipped it open. "I don''t have any problems with


    the questions at your level. Shall I teach you?"


    "I just looked at the question you were doing. You''re already going about this the wrong way. You


    see, from the question here, you can tell that …"


    Grace had only half-understood it before, but after listening to Xander''s exnation, she finally got


    it. "Xander, I understood it at once when you exined. Why can''t I understand anything when the


    teacher is speaking?


    "I think you exin it so much better than the teacher! Can you teach me the questions I can''t do in


    the future?"


    Grace looked hopefully at him, like an adorable little kitten.


    "Okay."


    That simple word delighted Grace, and she suddenly felt that she didn''t hate the mathematical


    olympiad so much after all.


    In fact, she now had a shred of interest in it.


    Xander went for mathematical olympiad sses with Grace for about half a semester, and at the


    end of the semester, when they joined apetition, Grace won the gold award for her year.


    The moment when she held the trophy in her hands felt surreal to Grace.


    "Xander, this is all thanks to you! I love you so much. You can''t imagine what Grandpa''s expression


    will be like when he finds out that I got the gold award …"


    Xander could see Grace opening and shutting her mouth as she chattered, but all he could hear


    was that one sentence. Even if she hadn''t said it consciously, it still made his heart flutter.


    …


    In the blink of an eye, it was already the second half of her first year in junior high.


    One day after gym ss, Grace kept feeling a pain in her lower abdomen. At first, she didn''t think


    much of it.

    Then, the pain worsened, and her entire face gradually became deathly pale. She had no strength


    at all, and her ssmates finally noticed that there was something wrong with her.


    "Grace, are you okay?"


    "Grace, what''s wrong?"


    "Grace?"


    "Hurry, take her to the school infirmary!"


    Xander had just gotten out of ss when a girl suddenly rushed over and grabbed his arm. "You''re


    Grace''s older brother, right? Something has happened to her. You''ve got to go there quickly …"


    Xander''s heart leaped out of his chest. He didn''t even ask what had happened before saying,


    "Where is she?"


    "The school infirmary."


    When Xander heard this, he began running wildly toward the school infirmary.


    "Gracie? What''s wrong? Are you okay?"
