The aloof school beauty has been reborn and is now pursuing me relentlessly.

I came to school on Friday morning.

The morning reading and homework checking sessions have been removed.

The students in Class 10 entered the classroom and sat down to study, or whispered to each other from time to time.

There were also many furtive glances, constantly and secretly looking towards the back row of the fourth group of seats in the classroom.

You can vaguely hear some of the students' conversations.

The text contains keywords such as "academic ranking", "Su Jun", "bet", and "Lin Ran".

It is clear.

Last week, the bet that Su Jun and Lin Ran made in front of the convenience store over Su Qingyan had already spread throughout the class.

Today is the day to reveal the truth about the outcome of the match.

however.

Lin Ran and Su Qingyan, the two people involved, appeared extremely calm and composed at this moment.

They were even a little too calm.

He seemed completely indifferent and nonchalant, as if it were none of his business.

They were all sitting in their seats, intently eating their breakfast.

The students could even see their class monitor, the most beautiful girl at Soochow University, naturally hand two of the steamed buns she had bought to Lin Ran.

The person accepted it as if it were the most natural thing in the world and continued to eat with great relish without any politeness.

This scene.

Even though the students in Class 10 had become accustomed to it over the past week or two, they were still shocked and incredulous every time they saw it, and felt a bit envious and jealous.

But then I thought about it.

They started feeling sorry for Lin Ran again.

after all……

The outcome of his bet with Su Jun is about to be announced.

One was the undisputed worst student in Class 10, and the other was the renowned academic star and heartthrob of Class 13 in the humanities stream.

No one could possibly think that Lin Ran had even the slightest chance of winning.

Thinking of this, the students of Class 10 looked at Lin Ran with more sympathy and pity:

This is probably before the end...

This is the final peace.

……

The school bell rang.

This morning, the first class was English, and Mr. Cai walked in.

The students in Class 10 immediately sat up straight, staring at Lao Cai with nervous anticipation.

Old Cai noticed the gazes of his classmates, but smiled and raised his pinky finger in a delicate gesture:

"Hey, why is everyone looking at me like that?"

"You want to know your mock exam scores, right?"

"Don't worry, the papers for all subjects are at about the same pace. They were just graded and we're waiting for the statistics."

"They probably won't be out until around noon at the earliest."

This statement came out.

The students in the class were filled with regret.

Seeing that the students were again listless and uninterested, Old Cai smiled again and said mysteriously:

"However, I can reveal some information—"

"I heard that in this second mock exam, two students in the entire grade got extremely high scores in English!"

"One 148!"

"The other one, a perfect score of 150!"

"And they're all from our humanities grade!"

Immediately, the students in the class were once again in an uproar.

There are fifteen classes in the arts and sciences streams. In this second mock exam, the Chinese, math, and English subjects all used the same test papers.

This English exam is definitely not easy.

Even top students who usually score 130 points in a single subject will probably have to lose 5-8 points this time.

The students in Class 10 privately discussed the answers after the exam, and even Zhou Hua, the English class representative, estimated his score to be only 127 points.

But how could someone actually score 148 or even a perfect score?

What level of talent must this person be?!

suddenly.

Many students turned their heads and looked towards the last row of the fourth group, their eyes reflecting the beautiful figure of their class monitor, Su, the school beauty.

Then the students in Class 10 suddenly realized what was happening and began to whisper and speculate among themselves.

These two scores are exceptionally high.

It's very likely that Su, the school beauty, will be one of them.

But who the other one is is hard to say.

Under the watchful eyes of all the classmates.

Su Qingyan remained seated with a calm and unchanged expression.

As if casually, she turned her head and glanced at Lin Ran beside her, raising her eyebrows slightly.

A barely perceptible smile curved at the corner of his mouth.

If she hadn't specifically asked someone to check the answers to her exams during evening self-study yesterday...

At this moment, she was probably making all sorts of guesses, just like her classmates.

But after checking the answers last night—

All speculation is no longer necessary.

Even those truths that outsiders believe to be unresolved or firmly accepted.

It's with her.

The matter has been settled.

Right now, she only has one thought in her mind: to be relaxed and happy.

I'm really looking forward to it...

[Waiting for today's mock exam results rankings—]

[The moment it was officially announced.]

……

The first English class ended quietly like that.

Old Cai sat leisurely on the podium for forty minutes, providing analysis and answers to some students who took the initiative to ask questions.

As soon as the bell rang, she gracefully left with her pinky finger raised.

The classroom erupted in noise and commotion once again.

Most students are not focused on studying right now; they are all eagerly awaiting the release of their second mock exam results and rankings.

The two classmates sitting in front of Lin Ran and Su Qingyan even pulled out a deck of cards from somewhere and started playing to pass the time.

The atmosphere in the classroom was noisy and chaotic.

And just then.

A discordant voice rang out.

"Yo--"

"Lin Ran, still so relaxed?"

Lin Ran, who was sitting in her seat, looked up and saw Zhou Hua, the English class representative, walking over. He spoke in his familiar sarcastic tone.

Lin Ran glanced at Zhou Hua and asked with concern:

"Has Batman still not caught you—?"

Zhou Hua: "??"

I almost choked on my own blood.

He then took a deep breath, looked at Lin Ran, and sneered:

"Pretend, keep pretending."

"Now, everyone in the entire grade knows that you, Lin Ran, are incredibly arrogant and dare to bet with Su Jun from Class 13 about grades?"

"The rankings for the second mock exam came out today."

"By the time……"

"I'll see who the real clown is!"

Zhao Ke from the next group, upon hearing this, stood up, his face contorted with anger.

"Zhou Hua, what do you mean?"

"Ran is one of our own from Class 10. He's competing with Su Jun from Class 13, and you're still siding with an outsider, right?"

Zhou Hua sneered:

"What do you mean by 'insiders' and 'outsiders'? Exams are all about scores; ability speaks for itself!"

"He overestimated himself and brought shame upon himself. If he loses, it won't just be him who loses face, but also the entire Class 10!"

"If you ask me, that would be the most heinous and unforgivable crime!"

His words were incredibly passionate and resounding.

Lin Ran looked at Zhou Hua with a curious expression:

"You know so many idioms, are you planning to get into Peking University?"

Zhou Hua: "??"

Zhou Hua nearly choked again, and was furious: "You!"

Then he angrily flung his hand away, turned around and left: "I can't be bothered with you!"

When I swung my hand, I accidentally knocked the playing cards of the two students on the table in front of me to the ground.

Lin Ran helped pick up the playing cards from the ground, glanced at Zhou Hua, and said earnestly:

"have a look."

"You're in a hurry again."

Then, out of kindness, he handed over a playing card:

"Here, you've lost your ID card."

He handed over a King card.

Zhou Hua was stunned with anger, his lips trembling: "You, you—"

Before he could finish speaking, Su Qingyan calmly handed Xiao Wang over as well:

"There are also photocopies."

Led by Zhao Ke, the surrounding students were shocked and then burst into laughter.

Zhou Hua's face flushed red with shame and indignation. He turned around and fled back to his seat just as the class bell rang.

The second period.

The third period.

As each subject teacher entered the classroom, the students looked on with tense anticipation, only to be told that the results and rankings would be announced later.

Until the last period of the morning, our teacher, with a stern face, walked in and said:

"The ranking of the second mock exam results will be announced before the first class in the afternoon."

"and."

"The school will post the ranking banner directly on the honor roll at the main entrance of the teaching building."

The time has been set.

The curtain is about to rise.

It seems like... a storm is brewing!
