Chapter 150 - I Like to See You Guys Quarreling (2/2)
Zhao Yumo ignored her polite refusal and readily agreed to help her.
Yun Xi stared at her energetic face, magnanimous and righteous, and for some reason she started to take a liking to this tomboy.
“This kind of meddling is not for you, and you should just focus on continuing to be the second place inc.u.mbent. It does suit me well. I like to see you guys quarreling, because then I can save a damsel in distress. How much fun!”
“…”
Yun Xi lifted her eyes, and there was mischief in them. “Then is it interesting to always be the second place inc.u.mbent out of consideration for Zhou Chengzhe?”
“What do you mean for his sake? My academic abilities dictate that I can only be the second place inc.u.mbent.”
As if she had been caught red-handed, Zhao Yumo dodged her question with a guilty expression.
She was probably used to being straightforward and wasn’t used to lying about her intentions. Her frankness was actually quite endearing.
“I asked the teachers to let me study your exam papers. In fact, based on your academic abilities, it’s not impossible for you to get first place. But on the contrary, you will deliberately answer a few questions wrong every time you take the exam, and you do so on purpose. To put it simply, that is, you control your score every time you take an exam, and ensure that your score is lower than Zhou Chengzhe’s score.”
Being exposed so directly, Zhao Yumo glanced around, then waved her hand at Yun Xi and stopped pretending.
“Low-key! Low-key! In fact, I think being the second place inc.u.mbent is pretty cool too.”
“It is pretty cool. After all, you have an affluent family background. You don’t need to be the first to please your elders. But Zhou Chengzhe is different. He is from a poor family. The school will also waive his tuition if he gets first place. You are very kind, but it isn’t nice to do too much of this kind of thing. If he finds out, his ego will be bruised.”
“Isn’t there still you? It’s not impossible to get first place with your academic capabilities either! I have also read your exam papers, so the important task of being the second place inc.u.mbent is left to you.”
“Sorry, I’m not interested in vying for first place with other people.”
“But now you have not only robbed Li Sinuo of first place, you have also become a public enemy of the people. I really look forward to how you will refurbish your reputation.”
“Then wait and see!”
Yun Xi patted her shoulder. “Study hard, because I alone can’t bear the burden of being the second place inc.u.mbent on my shoulders.”
Zhao Yumo stared at the figure disappearing at the top of the stairs, then patted her own head. Having found such an interesting opponent, she smiled to herself in delight.
