Chapter 246: Provocation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The battle between Cla.s.s 1 and Cla.s.s 7 became widely known throughout the university. It even led to the posting of betting slips on the campus bulletin boards. Just one yuan to place a bet on who would win in the end.
That bet was too obvious. As long as someone’s brain wasn’t broken, they would undoubtedly choose Cla.s.s 1.
As a result, many people started placing their bets. Watching the show was one thing, but betting was another matter.
[Cla.s.s 1 is universally recognized as the top student cla.s.s. There’s no need to think twice about it; the final winner will definitely be Cla.s.s 1.]
[Although I despise Cla.s.s l’s approach, when it comes to grades, Cla.s.s 7 is really no match. It’s too late for them to cram at the last minute.]
[I’ll bet on Cla.s.s 1 too, 10 yuan. Hehehe, watching the excitement is better than making money.]
[I’m betting on Cla.s.s 1 as well, 100 yuan.]
[Count me in, 100 yuans.]
The comments were all betting on Cla.s.s 1, even Tang Lin had joined in, placing a bet of 10,000 yuans on Cla.s.s 1. He even tagged Rong Qi.
[Cla.s.s 1 Tang Lin: This study compet.i.tion is meaningful. I’m joining in on the fun. I believe the final winner will be Cla.s.s 1. Cla.s.s 7, what’s your take? Do you want to join the fun too?]
Tang Lin’s words were dripping with a sense of flaunting and provocation.
Upon learning of that, Cla.s.s l’s morale soared. They left messages below Tang Lin’s post.
[Mr. Tang is mighty!]
[Thank you, Mr. Tang, for your trust in us. We will definitely not let you down. Go, Cla.s.s 1!]
[We’re outperforming Cla.s.s 7 academically. Cla.s.s 1 is the best! To all our friends in Cla.s.s 1, let’s work hard and not disappoint Mr. Tang’s expectations!]
[Hahaha, Cla.s.s 7’s homeroom teacher hasn’t shown up since the beginning of the semester. Could it be that she’s too embarra.s.sed to appear because she can’t control Cla.s.s 7?]
[HBeing outperformed by our cla.s.s. If I were them, I would have resigned long ago. How could she still have the face to stay at Capital University and teach that bunch from Cla.s.s 7?]
[That’s right.]
While Rong Qi was reading her book in her seat, she heard her phone ring. When she saw that her main account had been tagged, her eyes flickered. She picked up her phone and switched to her main account.
When Rong Qi saw the betting post, she furrowed her eyebrows slightly. She glanced at the students in the cla.s.sroom, all of them were focused on solving problems, oblivious to the betting post.
After a moment of contemplation, Rong Qi edited her reply.
Sitting nearby, struggling with a difficult question, Lu Qi noticed her playing on her phone and looked envious. She asked, “Seven, is your phone back to normal?”
Rong Qi paused, nodded without changing her expression, and said, “I’ve finished, so the program automatically unlocked.”
Lu Qi looked at Rong Qi with a mix of envy and jealousy. She said, “I forgot. You’re a perfect-scoring academic genius. I used to believe you were a r.e.t.a.r.d, and you fooled me around in circles!”
“That’s right,” Rong Qi said.
Lu Qi’s words provoked a chorus of agreement from those around them.
Rong Qi’s lips twitched and apologized, “Sorry. I didn’t mean to.”
If it weren’t for Rong Feiyu playing tricks, Rong Qi would still pretend to be a r.e.t.a.r.d by now.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qi patted Rong Qi’s shoulder in a very generous manner and said, “It’s okay, I understand. With your younger sister Rong Feiyu acting the way she does, and your stepmother being malicious, you pretended to be a r.e.t.a.r.d just to grow up safely. It’s okay, we don’t blame you.”
Rong Qi was speechless by Lu Qi’s words.
“I’ve finally finished!” Huang Hao tossed his notebook aside, hugged his phone that had been sealed for two days, and tears streamed down his face.
As Huang Hao opened his game and listened to Lu Qi’s words, he said, “So what? It’s just a lost account, right? Rong Qi, Ning will protect you. As long as Ning is around, those ugly bustards won’t dare touch you.. Besides, you can also go find your dad!”
