Lu Ning's words hit the nail on the head.

The room fell silent instantly, staring at Lu Ning in shock. As expected of an idol!

Qin Xiang's face turned red with anger, and her eyes immediately welled up with tears of grievance: "Sister Ningning, I was just trying to comfort you, I didn't mean anything by it."

The second henchman, filled with righteous indignation, shouted: "Lu Ning, don't be ungrateful! So what if you get better grades? If you're so capable, why don't you get first place in the whole city? What's so great about that?!"

The boys who were protecting her chimed in, "Lu Ning, although you have good grades and are good at games, you can't put others down like that. Qin Xiang was just trying to be kind."

Lu Ning's lips curled into a cold smile: "That's just how I am, I don't care about her kindness."

Qin Xiang sniffed: "Everyone, please don't argue because of me. I know that Sister Ningning is in a bad mood because she didn't do well on the exam, and I can understand that."

Jiang Lu was furious: "You don't understand anything! Stop with your crocodile tears and feigned compassion! The problem with Lu Ning's stationery back then was definitely related to you!"

I have indeed heard that a top student with excellent grades did not do well in Chinese, which resulted in a very unsatisfactory overall score.

After hearing from Qin Xiang that Lu Ning's stationery had gone wrong, she guessed that Qin Xiang might have been behind it.

Qin Xiang gave an innocent look: "Class monitor, what you said hurt me a little. I didn't prepare Lu Ning's stationery. The problem can only be attributed to her bad luck."

Lu Ning deserved to have done poorly on the exam.

She would be relieved as long as Lu Ning did not do well on the exam.

Lu Ning scoffed, "Who told you I did poorly on the test?"

She didn't want to stand out, but seeing the scheming girl confront the class monitor like that, she couldn't stand it anymore.

Qin Xiang was somewhat surprised: "Lu Ning, don't be stubborn, we all know that."

Follower Number Two pressed on, "Lu Ning, you said you did well on the test, so what was your score?"

Lu Ning raised her eyelids slightly: "I don't know."

"Tsk tsk, they actually say they don't know? Who are they trying to fool! The results are already out, aren't they?"

Class monitor Jiang Lu was somewhat surprised: "There's another possibility that they don't know their scores either, which is that their scores have been blocked."

Lu Ning leaned against the table, exuding a lazy and carefree air, her whole demeanor extremely calm.

Qin Xiang glanced at Lu Ning in a panic, feeling somewhat uneasy.

No, Lu Ning is definitely lying.

The second follower didn't believe it either: "Lu Ning is just putting on a brave face. After all, nobody knows what her grades are like."

Qin Xiang felt the same way, but seeing Lu Ning's calm demeanor, she wasn't sure she could pull it off.

Qin Xiang tentatively said, "Sister Ningning, I know you've worked very hard in the last few months and your grades have improved a lot, but good grades don't mean everything. You don't need to feel so much pressure. There's no need to make grand pronouncements."

Qin Xiang had barely finished speaking when the class monitor retorted, "Qin Xiang, are you jealous? Everyone has witnessed Lu Ning's abilities. Maybe she performed exceptionally well in the college entrance exam. It's not impossible that her score was directly blocked."

Follower #2 retorted: "But everyone knows Lu Ning's usual grades. How could she suddenly get such good grades, and even have them hidden, and still manage to get into the top 50 in the city?"

Basically, no one present believed it.

At this moment, the homeroom teacher walked in with a beaming smile: "Students, it seems everyone is here. Today, I'm treating everyone to a celebratory dinner for our class's top scorer in the city."

The moment those words were spoken, the classroom erupted in chaos.

"My God, the number one student in the whole city is actually in our class?"

"Our school hasn't had a top scorer for several years, right? Who could it be?"

The homeroom teacher deliberately kept everyone in suspense: "Now, everyone, guess who our class's top scorer will be?"

Qin Xiang said, "Then he must be our class's top student and the class's academic representative."

"Yes, if it's the top scorer, then it's definitely our class's academic representative. His grades have consistently ranked in the top three in the whole grade over the years, so it's definitely him."

At this moment, the top student stood up and said, "It wasn't me."

"How is that possible? If it's not a top student, then who else could be the top scorer? Could it be the second-place student?"

When the homeroom teacher saw the reporter approaching, she immediately announced, "It's Lu Ning."

The classroom fell silent instantly.

Then class monitor Jiang Lu was the first to scream: "Your idol is actually you! You're number one in the whole city! My god, you're so amazing!"

The rest of the students were all terrified.

They guessed many people, but none of them expected that the top scorer would be Lu Ning.

When Qin Xiang heard the news, she was completely dumbfounded. How could this be? Lu Ning was actually ranked first in the whole city.

This news was more painful for Qin Xiang than death itself.

Class monitor Jiang Lu glanced at Qin Xiang and her second follower and said, "Hmph! Just now, I don't know who were the ones who had the audacity to comfort our city's top scorer, saying that if you don't do well on the exam this time, they can accompany you to repeat a year. How dare they? Accompany our city's number one scorer to repeat a year?"

"Squad leader, please stop talking, you're killing me with laughter. This is the funniest joke I've ever heard in my life."

"Yeah, a mediocre student actually tried to comfort the top student in the city, saying he would accompany her to repeat a year. I don't know where she got the courage."

Qin Xiang's expression was as ugly as if she had eaten shit.

These words were like a slap in the face, hitting her hard across the cheek.

The second follower said hysterically, "How could Lu Ning be the top scorer? I think there must be something wrong with her grades, or Lu Ning must have cheated."

Qin Xiang thought so too.

How could Lu Ning possibly become the top scorer in the entire city?

The homeroom teacher immediately looked at Qin Xiang with a cold face: "What's wrong with you two? Everyone has seen Lu Ning's academic improvement. She performed exceptionally well and became a dark horse. As her classmates and family members, you're not happy for her, but instead you're questioning Lu Ning's grades. Is this how I usually teach you?"

Qin Xiang's eyes immediately turned red.

But no one came to comfort her at this time; everyone was discussing Lu Ning becoming the top scorer.

At this moment, the reporter also came over, accompanied by the principal and the dean of studies.

The principal was a kind old man. When he looked at Lu Ning, he had a look of satisfaction on his face: "I didn't expect you to do so well on the exam this time."

When Lu Ning saw the principal, she smiled and said, "Thank you for the stationery you gave me back then."

If the principal hadn't promptly sent over a set of useful stationery...

Her Chinese language grades will likely be affected.

The writing on that defective stationery is unclear and it might even leak ink, which will definitely result in points being deducted if it smudges the paper.

"I was just following the rules. It's your own excellence that allowed you to become the top scorer."

The reporter walked over and placed the microphone in front of Lu Ning: "Lu Ning, your grades have improved dramatically in the last few months, achieving the top score in the city. This must have been due to the help and support of those around you. Who is the person you would most like to thank?"
