Lu Ning stopped, her voice polite but distant: "Second Brother, Fourth Brother, Sixth Brother."

If I don't greet them, they'll probably say I'm being rude and throwing a tantrum.

She doesn't have the energy to argue with them about these things right now; it would be a waste of time.

Lu Liu raised an eyebrow and looked over: "How was the exam today? You're so focused on studying hard that you didn't join the team. I'd like to see how well you do!"

Lu Ning didn't take her sixth brother's criticism to heart; after all, her brothers wouldn't approve of anything she did.

She pursed her lips and said, "I will try my best."

I will work hard to improve my grades and get into Yunnan University so I can stay away from you all.

Lu Bei scoffed, "Lu Ning has never been academically inclined. She didn't do very well in her first and second years of high school, and she only crammed at the last minute before graduation. She only looked like she was working hard. In the end, she was still ranked behind Xiang Xiang!"

Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Fourth Brother, don't say that. Sister Ningning has been working very hard lately, and the teacher has praised her. Grade rankings don't represent everything."

Lu Ning gripped her schoolbag tightly, anger surging through her chest.

There was a reason why she didn't do well in her studies in her past life.

That's because every time she did better than Qin Xiang in a test, Qin Xiang would cause trouble for her, which made her brothers dislike her.

To avoid being disliked by her brother, Lu Ning deliberately wrote carelessly on the exam.

Therefore, her grades were always worse than Qin Xiang's, because she didn't want Qin Xiang to cause trouble.

This doesn't mean she's not academically qualified!

In her past life, when she took the college entrance exam, she wanted to outdo Qin Xiang and prove that she was better than Qin Xiang.

But what happened in the end? His older brother forced him to apply to the same, even worse, school as Qin Xiang.

Even if her grades are good enough to get into a better school!

Thinking of all this, Lu Ning tried her best to control her emotions: "I'm going back to my room first."

Her eyes were icy cold, but this time she wouldn't be foolish.

-

The next day was the weekend, and Lu Ning slept in until she naturally woke up.

When she went downstairs to eat, there was no one in the lobby.

I guess he went to training camp.

Lu Ning didn't pay any attention and went back to her bedroom after finishing her meal.

She opened her phone and glanced at the news about the game competition.

As expected, the official announcement of the revival match was released.

This is just like in my past life.

At that time, during the revival match, Sixth Brother was full of energy, determined to win the game.

Only in this way can we advance and take revenge on the young master of the Ji family in the finals!

But in the previous life, Lu Tian's team was able to win the championship by sheer luck.

The young master of the Ji family withdrew from the competition at the crucial moment, which gave them a chance to win the championship.

However, Lu Ning didn't know why her opponent withdrew from the competition until the day he died.

Some say it was a sudden illness, while others say he was taken back by his family to inherit the family business, but he himself has never come out to clarify.

Looking at the game description, Lu Ning suddenly felt a little itchy to play.

However, Ji Chiqian's voice suddenly appeared in her mind.

She made a deal with him: whether or not he would play games would depend on his monthly exam results.

Okay, let's be patient a little longer, at least until the monthly exam results come out.

She took out her phone and, after thinking it over, sent Ji Chiqian a WeChat message: "Master, I didn't go to the infirmary after school last week because my second brother found out I hadn't come home on time. I was worried he'd discover my secret hideout, so I didn't come."

After sending the message, Lu Ning stared at the chat box for a long time, but there was no reply.

She couldn't help but click on Ji Chiqian's WeChat Moments, only to find it was just a single line.

Does this man never post on social media?

strange!

On the other side, Ji Chiqian looked at the message he received and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Brother Qian, who sent you the message?"

Ji Chiqian immediately locked the screen.

Gu Zifeng raised an eyebrow: "Judging from the profile picture, it's a girl. Could it be that girl you helped the other day, the one named... what's her name, Ning?"

"You talk a lot of nonsense."

"I think you're just feeling guilty. You were working overtime at the infirmary all week, and then suddenly you stopped going. You've been wearing a long face these past few days. Did you have a fight with her?"

Ji Chiqian turned his head away, his eyes filled with danger: "Don't be curious about my affairs."

"We grew up wearing open-crotch pants, what don't I know about you? Stop pretending!"

Ji Chiqian took his phone to the balcony and glanced down at the chat window.

Does she see the infirmary as a secret base?

He smiled subconsciously and opened her Moments.

It's basically just everyday sharing, with a very girly style.

He looked at her for a while and suddenly realized that he had lingered on her for too long, and this feeling was getting out of control.

Ji Chizhenqian immediately exited the chat software and turned back to the living room.

Lu Ning waited all day but didn't receive a reply from him.

Are you angry?

But she didn't dare to keep messaging him and decided to wait until the results came out on Monday.

Lu Ning spent the entire weekend at home studying.

Qin Xiang and her brothers didn't come back either; they stayed at the training camp instead.

-

Monday morning.

Lu Ning went downstairs and finally saw Qin Xiang and her brothers.

However, their chatting and laughing clearly indicated that their relationship had improved.

Lu Ning said nothing and went straight to the restaurant to eat.

Lu Liu asked sarcastically, "The results are coming out today, right?"

Lu Ning nodded: "Yes."

"I advised you to join the team a long time ago. After all, with your grades, you won't get into a good school. Instead of wasting time studying, you should train to become a professional player as soon as possible. With the resources provided by our Lu family, it's only a matter of time before you become famous. It's a pity that you didn't cherish this opportunity, so it's now given to Xiangxiang."

Lu Ning thought of the humiliation she suffered in her previous life when she was replaced.

She calmly replied, "I don't care."

After getting breakfast from the restaurant, Lu Ning turned and left the lobby.

Seeing Lu Ning's nonchalant attitude, Lu Liu was furious: "I'm waiting to see her 'good grades,' hmph!"

Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Lu Ning hadn't agreed to join the team.

Because she knew Lu Ning was talented at playing games, and if Lu Ning came, wouldn't she have no place?

However, she still smiled and said, "Sixth Brother, don't be angry. Sister Ning is just throwing a tantrum. Once she agrees to join the team, I'll give her my spot right away."

Lu Liu nodded with satisfaction: "You're the most sensible one!"

Qin Xiang's smile froze for a moment, feeling extremely unwilling. She had been working hard to practice the game all this time in order to gain Sixth Brother's approval.

Unfortunately, it seems that Sixth Brother still thinks Lu Ning is better.

Qin Xiang made up her mind that she must achieve results in the game and make Sixth Brother give up on Lu Ning's idea of ​​joining the team.

Lu Liu looked worried, after all, the revival match was very important, and if he lost, he would have no chance at all.

Although Qin Xiang tried very hard, her gaming talent was simply not enough. With only one month left before the revival competition, Qin Xiang's skills were simply not up to par.

To beat that kid from the Ji family, you need to be really capable!

Now, Lu Ning is the only candidate.

He couldn't bring himself to ask her for help, and all these years Lu Ning had been revolving around him, carefully and timidly trying to please him.

He was used to the way his siblings got along and couldn't change it all at once.

How long is Lu Ning going to keep throwing a tantrum?

Do we really have to force him to back down?
