La forgeronne d'un autre monde

Chapitre 113

"I also enjoy doing math problems."

My way of cultivating my mind is by reading online novels. Recently, I've become obsessed with a novel called "The Number One Tycoon in the City," it's incredibly good!!

Chapter 79 I've gotten used to it [Please add to your favorites and recommend]

It must be said that the Lin family is a rather special scholarly family, because people who come out of this family all have one thing in common: they are good at mathematics.

Lin Shike is a top student in the Department of Mathematics at Peking University. Her father is also a mathematics teacher. As for Lin Tiancheng, he is even more extraordinary. Although he is nearly seventy years old, he still participates in the college entrance examination question-setting activities in Jiangnan City.

Moreover, whenever Lin Tiancheng participated in setting the college entrance examination questions, the average math score that year would never exceed 60. As a result, Lin Tiancheng was hailed as the "Math Emperor" by countless students.

"Since you all like doing math problems, I happen to have a few short ones here. Why don't you try them?" Lin Tiancheng took out a test paper and a stack of draft paper from his study. There were more than a hundred questions in the test paper, and each question could be used as the last question in the college entrance examination.

"What an adorable old man." Ma Yunteng couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Lin Tiancheng was trying to find a boyfriend for Lin Shike in this way.

However, when it comes to solving math problems, who can compare to him?

"Grandpa Lin, just tell me how to do it!" Wang Bin's face lit up with joy when he saw the rows of math problems. He was a number theory researcher, and the college entrance exam questions were like appetizers to him!

"Hmph, brat, you think you can mess with me? I'll show you the difference between an idiot and a genius!" With a sneer on his lips, Wang Bin took the test paper and the scratch paper.

"Cousin, are you stupid? He's a math researcher from a prestigious university. How can you compare to him?" Mu Qianxue pulled her cousin over and whispered.

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Lin Shike pulled Mu Qianxue over and said with a smile, "Sister Xue, just let him do it."

"This! This is bullying!" Mu Qianxue immediately became dissatisfied.

"Sister Xue is right, this is indeed bullying, but it's not certain who's bullying whom..." Lin Shike said with a mysterious smile.

When it comes to solving problems, Lin Shike is far inferior to Ma Yunteng, let alone Wang Bin. In Lin Shike's eyes, this is indeed a bullying act!

However, it wasn't Ma Yunteng who was being bullied!

"Sigh! I'm not going to care about you guys anymore!" Mu Qianxue shook her head dejectedly.

Here, Lin Tiancheng instructed them to complete questions 101 to 105 on the test paper. These five questions were all comprehensive and tested their flexibility and comprehensiveness of thinking in a unique way.

"Young man, here you go." Lin Tiancheng handed him the draft paper.

"I don't need to use scratch paper; I prefer mental arithmetic," Ma Yunteng said with a faint smile.

Upon hearing the sound, Lin Tiancheng's lips twitched involuntarily.

Do I like mental arithmetic?

A sharp glint flashed in Lin Tiancheng's eyes, and he suddenly felt that he understood this guy less and less!

"Young man, this isn't a primary school math problem!"

Any one of these five questions could be the final, most challenging question on the college entrance exam! Lin Tiancheng simply couldn't believe that someone wanted to mentally solve the problems he had created; it was an insult to his reputation as a math genius!

"I'm used to it," Ma Yunteng said casually, shrugging his shoulders.

"..."

"Alright! The quiz will begin now, and the outcome will be determined by your final accuracy and time!" Lin Tiancheng said seriously to the two of them. He was really going all out to help Lin Shike find a suitable boyfriend.

Achoo!

Ma Yunteng picked up the scratch paper and covered his nose with it, then quickly scanned the five questions.

Over there, after receiving the test paper, Wang Bin quickly began to work out the problems. Sure enough, it was a question set by Lin Tiancheng. Even as someone who studies number theory, he felt that the questions were quite difficult. The first question alone required a lot of thinking, and it was not only complicated in process but also very comprehensive.

Wang Bin scratched his head, then began to calculate with a serious expression.

In stark contrast to Wang Bin's solemn demeanor, Ma Yunteng quickly came up with many solutions after reading the test questions. After selecting the most concise and ingenious solution from among them, Ma Yunteng calmly began to write down the answer.

Ma Yunteng's movements appeared very calm, but in Lin Tiancheng's eyes, they stirred up a huge storm!

Lin Tiancheng saw it very clearly: Ma Yunteng's only scratch paper was used as toilet paper to wipe his nose. After reading the question, he wrote down the answer as if he hadn't thought about it at all!

Lin Tiancheng had no idea that Ma Yunteng could deduce Goldbach's Conjecture down to 1+3 in just twenty minutes. To him, these problems were as simple as two-digit addition and subtraction in elementary school!

Five minutes passed.

Ma Yunteng slowly lit a Double Happiness cigarette and started smoking. At the same time, he glanced at Wang Bin across from him. He saw that Wang Bin was still working on the first question, while Ma Yunteng had already finished all five questions.

"Um, can I hand in my paper early?" Ma Yunteng stood up and said with a slight smile.

Upon hearing Ma Yunteng's words, Lin Tiancheng's goatee immediately stood up as if drawn by static electricity!

He grabbed Ma Yunteng's test paper, his eyes quickly scanning Ma Yunteng's answers, and then he couldn't help but slap his thigh:

"Wonderful! Absolutely wonderful!"

Ma Yunteng finished the five questions in five minutes, and his answers to each question were written like standard answers. If he hadn't created these questions himself, Ma Yunteng would have suspected that he was cheating!

Moreover, Ma Yunteng even wrote two solutions to one of the major questions!

If I had to find a flaw in the answer, it would be that there was no drafting process!

But when does Ma Yunteng need to write a script when answering questions?

He proved Goldbach's Conjecture mentally, so why would he need to write out the solution for this kind of problem?

"Grandpa, are you satisfied?" Lin Shike asked with a smile, tilting her head up.
