I Love You, Miss Genius

Chapter 8

Bonnie had written down the answer on the blackboard while they were talking-

The students were astonished.

“That’s incredible! How does an underachiever like Bonnie know how to answer that?”

“I don’t even understand the question, but she did it without even having to think!”

“Could Bonnie be some kind of genius?”

Mr. Rios flushed in embarrassment as he heard the students talk.

He had tried to get Bonnie to answer these questions to warn her against skipping classes.

If he couldn’t stump Bonnie today, he would lose the students‘ respect.

Suddenly, he thought of one of the seven famous unsolved math problems.

The P versus NP problem had baffled countless mathematicians.

It had been solved only a month ago by a mysterious math genius, to the shock of the world.

“There’s no way she’ll be able to solve this one!‘ he thought.

“Those questions were easy. Try this one instead.”

Mr. Rios looked smug after he had written down the question on the blackboard.

Bonnie glanced at it, then threw him an odd look.

“What are you looking at me for? Do I have the answer on my face?”

Mr. Rios was pleased that he had finally stumped her.

The students stared at the question, completely baffled.

“What the hell is that?”

“Is that a math question? Did Mr. Rios come up with this just to challenge Bonnie?”

Mr. Rios sneered as he saw Bonnie just standing there.

“If you don’t know how to do this, you should come to my class on time and pay-”

Before he could finish, Bonnie began to write down the solution.

As she filled the entire blackboard, Mr. Rios‘ jaw dropped.

She was running out of space, so she went to the board at the back and continued writing.

As time passed, the class grew increasingly quiet.

When the school bell rang, Bonnie said, “I’m done.” She put down the chalk and walked out of the

classroom.

Mr. Rios and other students were left awestruck.

The teacher, especially, couldn’t believe what he just saw.
