Ye Youran could also feel that her classmates were looking at her oddly. She sat down, buried her head in her arms, and began to cry loudly.
The students looked at one another and thought that the whole situation was incredulous.
Ye Youran was the one who had been violent, but why was she crying?
The more Ye Youran cried, the more upset she felt. She suddenly recalled what had happened in the afternoon when her mother found out that Ye Tianxin did better than her in the exams. Her mother dragged her out from her bed, where she had been sleeping soundly, and slapped her.
She scolded Ye Youran and called her all sorts of names.
Ye Youran wished she had superpowers at that moment…that she could disappear.
Aunty Zhu had always compared her to Ye Tianxin ever since they were young.
Aunty Zhu had only begun treating her kindly after her grades had improved tremendously in high school.
Before high school, Ye Youran had hated Aunty Zhu and hoped that Aunty Zhu would just be gone.
In high school, Aunty Zhu had treated her like a princess because of her good grades.
She would buy Ye Youran everything she wanted.
But this time, Aunty Zhu slapped her several times just because she did not perform as well as Ye Tianxin.
What Aunty Zhu cared about had always been her position in the school and not how much she had improved.
She hated Aunty Zhu.
She hated Ye Tianxin even more.
She didn’t understand at all why Ye Tianxin existed in this world.
Mr. Chen brought Ye Youran to his office and gave her a candy. Then, he sat down beside Ye Youran.
“Ye Youran, I’m aware that you doubt the authenticity of Ye Tianxin’s scores.”
Perhaps it was because Mr. Chen’s tone was too gentle.
Or perhaps it was because Ye Youran needed someone to listen to her.
Ye Youran started to talk.
“Mr. Chen, you know that Ye Tianxin’s academic performance has always been poor.”
Mr. Chen did not interrupt Ye Youran. He listened to her intently until she finished what she wanted to say. Then, Mr. Chen said, “Ye Youran, have you forgotten that Ye Tianxin’s grades were not poor when the students were assigned to different classes?”
Mr. Chen was talking about when Ye Tianxin had joined the high school from middle school. Ye Tianxin’s grades then had been very good.
It was just that Ye Tianxin did not like to study in high school, and her grades began to plummet.
“Mr. Chen, no matter how smart she is, it is impossible for her to climb from the bottom of the class to being first in school in just a month!”
“Then, Ye Youran, think of a question to ask Ye Tianxin tonight,” Mr. Chen continued. “You can quiz her…”
Ye Youran nodded.
She thought for the entire afternoon about what kind of question she should ask Ye Tianxin that would stump her.
What Ye Youran did not know was that since she started to think of this, she had already acknowledged the fact that Ye Tianxin’s grades had surpassed hers.
That night at eight…
There were several hundred high school seniors, and they were all gathered in the hall.
Ye Tianxin walked up to the stage in the hall with draft paper and a pencil.
The dean looked at Ye Tianxin, who was standing beside him. “Why is this child so stubborn? She would definitely suffer when she starts to work,” he thought.
“Good evening, students. First, I would like to congratulate everyone for your exceptional results in the mock exams.”
The students cheered.
The dean waited for the students to settle down before he raised his hands and gestured for everyone to stop.
“However, there are some students who suspect the authenticity of Ye Tianxin’s scores. Tonight, a student from every class will challenge Ye Tianxin.”
