After stopping being a simp, the school heartthrob cried and begged to get back together.

Chapter Twenty-One: Want to See Me?

"Why would I protect anyone?" Teacher Tian said angrily. "Our school is one of the key schools in the city. Every classroom has surveillance cameras, including the classroom used on the day of the exam. Whether there was cheating or not, just pull up the surveillance footage. What's the point of guessing here? It just makes you look like you're good at spreading rumors."

Teacher Tian's words reminded everyone.

“Teacher Tian is right.” I chimed in, “If you doubt Huo Yubai and me, you might as well ask the teachers who proctored us that day. They were sitting next to us the whole time.”

This is absolutely true.

"Teacher Wang, you wouldn't even doubt your own colleague, would you?" At this point, I no longer gave Wang Jing any face.

Wang Jing's face was as long as a horse's.

Teachers also have workplaces.

She's already in a precarious situation; if she offends two colleagues at once, the problem will become much bigger.

Wang Jing snorted but didn't say anything.

No one else dared to cause any more trouble.

After all, if they continue to argue and the evidence comes out, they will be the ones who lose face and embarrass themselves.

"Have you found Huo Yubai or not?" Teacher Tian asked anxiously.

"Teacher, it seems he... skipped class." Someone shouted from the crowd.

"That brat, he actually skipped class!" Teacher Tian was furious. "I have to call his parents in!"

After saying that, Teacher Tian ran off like the wind.

They must have gone to find Huo Fei.

Mu Xi raised an eyebrow at everyone: "What did we say back then? As long as Shen Yan moved up a hundred places, you would apologize. You haven't all forgotten, have you?"

Everyone looked embarrassed.

"Shen Yan not only moved up a hundred places, she also defeated Gu Heng and Zhao Baixue." Mu Xi glanced at Wang Jing: "Teacher Wang, shouldn't you say something too?"

"I only said that if she didn't get into the top 100, she would drop out of school. I didn't make any guarantees!" Wang Jing said, then turned and left.

They quickly fled the place of trouble.

"How could someone like her be like that!" Mu Xi was furious.

I reassured her, "I'm not angry, why are you angry? Just ignore her."

"Shen Yan, congratulations." Zhao Baixue glanced at me.

"Whether your congratulations are sincere or not, I accept them." I looked at her expressionlessly.

"Of course I mean it sincerely. I didn't expect you to do so well on the test." Zhao Baixue looked at me meaningfully. "But you mustn't fall off the mark, or you'll attract even more ridicule."

"Zhao Baixue, you really can't say anything nice!" Mu Xi said, annoyed.

"Zhao Baixue, thank you for reminding me." I smiled. "I think this is what you really think, isn't it? After all, you've already fallen down, haven't you?"

Zhao Baixue's expression changed.

I pulled Mu Xi away.

"Shen Yan, don't pay attention to her," Mu Xi tried to comfort me.

“Mu Xi, what she said is actually true.” I said calmly, “If I had always done this well, it wouldn’t matter if I dropped a few places or rose a few places. But I climbed out of the mud, and those people would definitely laugh at me.”

"Shen Yan, I believe in you." Mu Xi held my hand.

I smiled faintly: "I believe in myself too, so her words didn't hurt me at all. Let's go back to class."

"it is good!"

-

After school.

I went to Class 6 to look for him, and sure enough, Huo Yubai wasn't there.

As I left the school, I took out my phone and sent a message to Huo Yushen.

Me: Huo Yushen, I got second place in the whole grade this time!

Huo Yushen: Congratulations.

Me: Huo Yubai is first in the whole grade, it's all thanks to you, you're amazing!

Huo Yushen: You're the best.

Me: Huo Yubai is even more amazing, but he skipped class today?

Huo Yushen: He has an upset stomach.

Me: Is he feeling better? Should I go see him?

Huo Yushen: No need, boys can handle it.

Me: Boys are people too.

Huo Yushen: Well, if it really doesn't work, I'll take him to the hospital.

Me: Are you free today?

Huo Yushen: You want to see me?

For some reason, my cheeks suddenly felt hot when I saw those three words.

Me: Yes, can we meet?

Huo Yushen: I'll come to your house later.

Me: Okay!

After exchanging messages with Huo Yushen, I felt excited and expectant.

After we meet, I must thank him properly!

After thinking about it, I sent Huo Yubai a congratulatory message.

Me: Huo Yubai, congratulations.

Huo Yubai: Hmm.

So aloof!

Me: I just checked the scores, and you scored 20 points higher than me.

Huo Yubai: Unexpected.

Me: What accident?

Huo Yubai: I didn't expect them to fail to solve even the last two big questions.

I was taken aback and asked, "You mean you know how to do those two big questions?"

Huo Yubai: You don't know how?

Me: I suddenly don't want to chat with you anymore.

Huo Yubai: ?

Me: Those two big questions were really difficult. Today, my math teacher said it's normal if you can't solve them, so you did one but not the other.

Huo Yubai: Yes.

So that’s it!

Me: Who would have thought that someone considered a poor student by others would actually be controlling their grades!

Huo Yubai: Keep a low profile.

I laughed in exasperation: You can't keep a low profile, Teacher Tian said you should try the math olympiad.

Huo Yubai: Then I won't go to school for the next few days.

I:……

He didn't send any more messages.

I think he might still be feeling bad.

As I walked, I suddenly realized that I hadn't told my mom yet.

So I immediately sent her the report card.

Me: Image

My mom: My daughter is amazing!

My mom: [Transfer money]

I clicked on it, and she immediately gave me 100,000.

Me: Mom, it wasn't easy for you to start your business. I'm just a high school student, I don't need that much money.

My mom: Don't worry, Mom has plenty of money. But Mom can't come back to celebrate with you. I'll make it up to you next time.

Me: Mom, how are things on your end?

My mom: Everything is going well.

Although these four words are short, I am still very worried.

Me: Mom, from now on we'll depend on each other. You must tell me if anything happens.

I am still too young and too weak.

I wanted to protect her, but I was powerless to do so.

Just wait a little longer.

Wait until I finish my college entrance exam, until I'm completely free.

My mom: Silly child, everything's really fine here.

Me: Okay, Mom, come back soon.

My mom: Okay, I got it.

Han Li put down her phone, raised her hand, and gently pinched her brow.

Her assistant, Xia Zhe, looked at her with an inscrutable expression: "President Han, these are the requirements put forward by the other party."

Han Li didn't even glance at it: "What unreasonable demands did they make this time?"

Xia Zhe shook his head: "The other party said they want to meet you."

Han Li sneered: "Oh ho, this mysterious big boss has finally decided to show his face."

"Mr. Han, if we meet at this time, won't the other party make some unreasonable demands?" Xia Zhe worried.

"Judging from the other person's voice, they must be very young. I'm already forty years old. Why would someone younger be interested in me?" Han Li was still worried.

Xia Zhe pursed his lips and said softly, "You don't have to say that."
