Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 584 An Optimistic Person

Their conversation made Elise curious.

The Keller Family? Sheldon Keller? Don’t tell me that Jamie and Sheldon are related?

With this thought, Elise then secretly observed Sheldon.

Just now, her brief glance had told her that he was just another bright looking handsome boy. However,

upon a closer look, she found that he did indeed look familiar. His profile, eyebrows and nose… Even his

hairstyle looks like Jamie’s. But come to think of it, Jamie looks a bit more mature and manly.

Sheldon had the classic first love look of a film character in a school. Shaking her head, Elise smiled,

sighing how strange fate was and what a small world they lived in.

But just after a short moment, Martin and Sophie were back with the test papers in their hands.

The duo each had a bag in their hands, with Martin holding the exam questions while Sophie was

holding the answer sheet in hers, preventing any possibility of a leak.

Then, Martin found another two students to help with the distribution of the papers. While this was

happening, Martin stood behind the rostrum, explaining the rules of the exam.

“The paper was designed by me. Inside, you’ll find the questions to be all from the high school physics

competition, with all them being a compilation of the basic questions. It also goes without saying that

they are not the same. But the steps used are similar and you should be able to score if you understand

the theory.”

“The paper has a total of ten multiple choice questions, five fill in the blank questions and three questions

that require calculations. The last one is an upgraded version of the competition question with scaled

difficulty. It’s an added bonus question, so you can choose not to do it if you don’t know how to. Just try

your best to answer all the questions first. A word of warning, though—if anyone is discovered to be

cheating, you can get ready to pack your bags and leave!”

Not everyone shared the same sentiment and Elise, who calmly flipped through the paper, only thought

that Martin was being loud.

The paper was about the same as what Martin had described, and it was all entry level competition

questions. Anyone who had some experience in a physics competition would find this no trouble at all.

Then, the boy who was talking to Sheldon turned around and said to her, “Hey, you don’t know how to do

it too, right?”

Looking at him, Elise was a bit confused by his words.

Meanwhile, the boy thought that she was embarrassed, so he reminded her, “You don’t have to be shy

about all this. After all, I was also forcefully entered into the class by my father to reserve a place for my

studying abroad. Just simply answer it and don’t pressure yourself too much. After all, we still have to

inherit the family business, regardless if we go abroad or not. It’s just a matter of time.”

Laughing at his words, Elise replied, “You sure are optimistic.”

Knock, knock!

Martin, who had walked down from the podium without them noticing, was already standing beside

Elise’s table and intentionally knocked on her table. “Haven’t you taken an exam before? No talking,” he

growled.

Elise did not reply, but the boy she was talking to looked downright irritated, and he sat up straight and

started to answer the questions. However, it seemed that he was not thinking when he wrote down the

answers, with him already finishing the first five questions within one minute.

Analyzing the questions briefly in her mind, Elise already knew the answers, but all she did was just stare

at the paper without writing anything. Thinking of how Martin had such a deep prejudice against her, she

would only create more problems if she were to continue to stand out. So, her best course of action

would be to reel herself in a bit.

As the saying went, the brightest stars often fizzled out the fastest. So, acting as if she was clueless, she

flipped to the questions at the back. After pondering for a bit, she started to answer.

Looking at the duo, Martin shook his head and sighed. A rotten base will never be anything great. One is

just guessing, while the other one can’t even be bothered to do so. How can they even learn if they do

not use their brains?

Not wanting to see the two waste their time, Martin walked to the side and saw Sophie’s paper, which

filled his heart with relief. She had correctly answered the multiple choice and fill in the blank questions,

and he estimated that the subsequent questions would not pose a threat to Sophie either.

Not bad. She really was someone that he had chosen.

Noticing his gaze, Sophie lifted her head. The two of them nodded, immediately understanding the other.

Physics was all about logical thinking. So, if one could use the correct equation and do some simple

mathematical manipulation, the answer would reveal itself.

The entry level questions were not hard, and it was the bonus question that had a few hurdles which

made Elise waste a bit of time. However, she still managed to answer the second section by the time

twenty minutes had passed.

After checking the first few pages, Elise then chose ‘B’ for all of them and filled half of the fill in the blank

questions. As there was still an hour left until the exam ended, she did not have the patience to just sit

around the classroom and wait.

“Sir, can we hand in the paper early?” Elise raised her hand and asked.

Because there wouldn’t be any lectures after exams finished, she was ready to go look for Mikayla, as

she had promised to bring some food to her.

This made Martin reveal a thunderous expression. It hasn’t even been that long since the exam started

and she already can’t sit still. I’ll be damned if she manages to accomplish anything in the future with that

personality of hers!

However, he thought of it from another angle, and came to the conclusion that the rotten apples would

only distract the other students, so it was best to let them leave earlier. Plus, it also made Martin mad by

just looking at them.

“Alright, you can leave.”

Then, he added, “When you go out, tell your male friends that this is a place for learning, so do ask them

to stay away if they don’t have any urgent matters.”

This made Elise speechless. Suddenly, all she wanted was for Martin to consume more Omega-3, as it

would help in his brain development. After all, if a university did not allow their students to socialize, what

kind of university was that?

Not wanting to waste words on him, Elise placed the paper on the rostrum and left.

Just as she left, Sheldon followed in her footsteps and without so much as a greeting, handed the paper

and left too.

The boy who was talking with Elise just now mirrored their actions, and the class became quite noisy

following their departure.

“Focus on your own exam and don’t worry about others. People who want to fail have nothing to do with

you!” After Martin’s cold reminder, the classroom then regained its former peace.

Stepping out of the small white building, Elise then gave Mikayla a call. Coincidentally, being free and in

her own bedroom, Mikayla then suggested meeting at the dorm.

Taking the snacks up, Elise waited for her friend to put on some makeup before leaving the school

together to go to the night market nearby. After attending the university, they had not gone out together at

night to hang out, so they were both quite excited.

Snack Street was the most colorful place nearby, with the sight of stalls mixed with youthful university

students everywhere. One would also get infected by the liveliness as they wandered down the street.

Elise and Mikayla purchased a few snacks, and they finally stopped at a popular barbeque stall.

While waiting for the owner to prepare their food, Mikayla, while eating a barbeque chicken wing, was

secretly observing Elise. The former looked as if she wanted to say something.
