Chapter 1698
At that moment, Nicole happened to walk past her
Snow pretended to probe Nicole. “Ah, I didn't expect you to join the computer competition, Nicole. You did very well
during the Math Olympiad previously. You must be very confident in this too, aren't you?"
Snow's words might sound like compliments, but she had placed Nicole upon such a pedestal that if she messed up
and knew nothing, she would be a laughing stock.
Gary frowned a little. “What does that have to do with you?"
Snow and Raine were sisters, and since Raine had been expelled because of Nicole, he surmised that Snow must be
plotting something.
Snow was taken aback by that remark, after which she awkwardly said, "I'm just concerned for Nicole."
Nicole gave Snow's false look of concern a glance, and seeing the curious gazes that had been cast over by
everyone around them, she lifted her lips a little. "I'm indeed very confident. I wonder how your coding skills are,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSnow.'
Unexpectedly, Nicole did not even bother to humble herself this time and she threw the question back at Snow
instead.
Snow's expression changed a little but she still smiled and said. "I'm definitely not as smart as you are, Nicole.
You're proficient in everything. I'm just here to make up for the numbers as no one in class wanted to participate. I
thought it was the same for you, but if you are good at it, please teach me what you know."
Snow once again seemed to be complimenting Nicole, but she was actually waiting for an opportunity to humiliate
the latter.
In response, Nicole flashed her a playful smile. "What do you want me to teach you, really? From the basics? I
wonder if you prefer to use Java or PHP?"
Nicole's words surprised some of those who were watching the drama unfold.
'For Nicole to be able to name the coding language, it seems that there is a real difference between her and Snow."
Snow did not expect Nicole, a country bumpkin in her opinion, to know those coding languages, and in an awkward
tone, she replied, "Just teach me whatever you know..."
Nicole however sneered back at her. "These two languages are just the basics, and I know the both of them,
alongside a few more niche coding languages. If you don't know the difference, come and ask me again once
you've gone through some idiot's guide or something."
After she had said her piece, Nicole returned to her seat, unwilling to deal with Snow any longer.
However, those words were enough to shock the others.
Aside from knowing the two main programming languages in the country, she even knew a few other coding
languages that are not as common as well! That's really amazing!'
Gary's eyes dimmed as he looked at Nicole. 'From what I can tell... she's a pro at this...Lucifer...'
With that in mind, Gary could not help but to take another glance at Nicole. "It seems that I really don't have to
worry about you. When did you learn all these?"
Nicole shot him a glance over her shoulder. "About eight or nine I guess?"
They had started learning all of these coding languages the moment they joined the organization. She was very
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏminterested in it at that time, preferring to code quietly rather than training, so she had gotten into the groove much
faster than anyone else.
"Eight or nine?" Gary was taken aback, for that was way earlier than even an InfoTech scion like him.
'It seems that Nicole's skills in coding may very well be above mine,' he surmised.
Soon, the teacher arrived.
Beside the teacher was another person, Gary's brother, Ryder Finley. As a senior of the university department with
excellent coding skills, he was brought in as a teaching assistant.
"It's Gary's elder brother."
"Yeah, he's quite the looker too!"
"I heard that he's a tech wiz, and he's representing the school this time too!'
"I heard that in the last competition, the two brothers got first and second place respectively. Amazing!"
When Nicole heard the introduction, she turned and shot Gary a glance.’ Your brother?"
"Yeah." Gary nodded back.
"Is he good?" Nicole raised her eyebrow.
Feeling a little awkward and not knowing what else to say, Gary stammered, "Uh, I guess..."
His brother was indeed a tech wiz, but if Nicole was really Lucifer, how would he even begin to consider himself and
his brother to be on equal footing with her?
