At the very least, we should be able to get first place.

Xie Xiao was taken aback. Seeing that the other person's expression didn't seem fake, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Actually, don't put too much pressure on yourself, and don't compare yourself to others. Just compare yourself to yourself."

"Yes, it's great to make a little progress every day, to be a little better today than yesterday."

"That's how I think, and that's how I keep my mindset from collapsing."

Mingzhuo gave the girls an approving look and said, "You guys are great. Keep up that mindset."

Li Wenhe: "Even if you drop in ranking this time, it doesn't mean you're bad; it just means the others are very strong."

He estimated that he could get into the top five in his class this time.

It's uncertain whether Mingzhuo can make it into the top five, but there's no doubt that some of the girls present will drop in ranking.

The girls exchanged bewildered glances, sensing something was amiss. Weren't they supposed to be comforting Ruan Mingzhuo? Why were they the ones being comforted instead?

It's probably just my imagination.

The arguing on the street suddenly drew everyone's attention.

"Don't be ridiculous, you have to go to your tutoring class today!" Cheng Jiangkai said with a livid face, very dissatisfied with his son's sudden rebellion.

Cheng Jinghao's eyes were dark and his face was equally pale: "I said I'm not going, and I'm not going. Don't make a big deal out of nothing!"

Cheng Jiangkai was taken aback: "What kind of attitude is this?"

"This is my attitude. Don't think you're spoiling me; you're all just using me as a tool, expecting me to bring you honor and take care of you in your old age!"

Cheng Jinghao's face was full of hostility, a stark contrast to his usual refined and scholarly demeanor.
