Ding Shifang was a little cautious, but then she heard her mother say, "You're always hanging out with those friends. Why don't you learn anything from them? Your father is the factory director. Don't be so petty all the time."

"I'm sorry, Mom. I'll try to learn more from others."

"Don't just watch others spend money. Have fun if you want to. Stay away from those playboys. Jiaojiao never paid any attention to that Tan Zidong before."

A few days ago, something happened to Tan Zidong's family. He repeatedly asked Ding Shifang for help, using his friendship with her. Ding's parents were very patient with his requests, so Ding's mother inevitably harbored some resentment towards Ding Shifang.

"sorry......"

"Alright, I've made plans to go to the department store with your third aunt. You'd better call her now."

Ding's mother didn't want to hear Ding Shifang's apology anymore and went back to her room to pack her things.

Given her parents' attitude, how could Ding Shifang not be wary of Bai Jiaojiao?

She went to great lengths to get Bai Jiaojiao kicked out of the house, but now, her parents have started bringing up Bai Jiaojiao again and comparing her to her all the time.

Ding Shifang felt extremely wronged. Because she was switched at birth, she grew up in the countryside and was therefore ignorant. How could she be blamed for that?

Ding Shifang dialed the phone: "Hello? Is this Wu She? I need your help with something... Of course, you won't be shortchanged."

When Ding's mother came out of the room, she saw Ding Shifang whispering something to the other end of the phone.

Seeing her acting so suspiciously even at home, Ding's mother couldn't help but roll her eyes, too lazy to bother with her, and went out on her own.

Bai Jiaojiao has recently become very famous at Yenching University, especially at the Medical School. As students who went to hear her report spread the word, everyone knows that there is a beautiful and academically excellent second-year female student at the Modern Medical School. Some people have somehow found out about Bai Jiaojiao's class and courses, and after class, there is a constant stream of people who want to see her in person.

Seeing Bai Jiaojiao's smugness, Chen Meizhen was filled with hatred.

This incident made Chen Meizhen lose face. Although she wasn't expelled, she still claimed to be sick and didn't come to school for two days.

She had just returned to school today, but it happened to be the day the class monitor was changed. Seeing Bai Jiaojiao in such a limelight, she naturally couldn't calm down.

Actually, Bai Jiaojiao didn't have anything to be proud of. Some people who weren't well-informed even sent her love letters through intermediaries or in person, and she even encountered Shen Heng standing right next to her once.

Shen Heng has started acting like he did when he first entered university, spending all his free time waiting for her outside her classroom after class.

Bai Jiaojiao sensed the unfriendly look coming from Chen Meizhen. Chen Meizhen had been annoyed with her for a long time, so Bai Jiaojiao let her think whatever she wanted.

She encouraged Shu Manling, saying, "Keep it up! Xu Yue and I both think you can do it!"

"Yes, Manling, you must keep going!"

Xu Yue also encouraged Shu Manling. This time, without Chen Meizhen's competition, it was actually quite fierce. Apart from the class committee members who had already taken office and Chen Meizhen who was not eligible to run for election, there were four people out of the remaining dozen or so who wanted to run for this position.

Whether they genuinely wanted to serve others or were also envious of the class monitor's high GPA, everyone was very enthusiastic.

Shu Manling doesn't usually interact much with others, but her friend Xu Yue gets along well with most people. Xu Yue had already told her close friends in advance that this time, Shu Manling would be treating everyone to a meal.

Of the four candidates, Shu Manling had the best grades, which was an advantage for her. After all, the other students in the class were either so engrossed in their studies that they didn't care about anything else, like Bai Jiaojiao, or they were already class committee members.

After her speech, everyone voted anonymously. Shu Manling won by a narrow margin of seven votes over her competitors. She was so excited on stage that her face turned red, and she kept bowing to everyone, promising, "Thank you for your trust. I will do my best to serve you all in the coming school year! If you have any difficulties in your life, you can come to me and talk to me. I will do my best to help you!"

As soon as Shu Manling finished speaking, everyone applauded her, and even her three competitors graciously applauded her.

But Chen Meizhen retorted sourly in a voice that wasn't too loud, "You're struggling to make ends meet yourself, yet you're helping others? You're just talking nonsense!"

Her words caused everyone to awkwardly stop.

Shu Manling was very embarrassed, but not as embarrassed as the others who were there for Chen Meizhen.

How shameless! They thought that the teacher's daughter must have been raised with strict discipline. Who taught Chen Meizhen to talk like that?

The fact that they became the class monitor is thanks to you for making a mistake and getting demoted!

Xu Yue was never polite to Chen Meizhen: "Shu Manling was talking about us ordinary classmates, of course not including you, Chen Meizhen. After all, a punishment like being placed on probation is not something that Shu Manling, as the class monitor, can handle."

"you!"

Although everyone had their doubts, no one actually brought it up in front of Chen Meizhen. Now that Xu Yue had exposed it, Chen Meizhen had lost all her dignity.

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' what do you mean, ' ' '', ...

Xu Yue never held back when she spoke to Chen Meizhen.

Huang Shifeng couldn't stand it anymore and quickly said, "Alright, Xu Yue, stop talking. But Chen Meizhen, you should learn from this lesson, study diligently to enrich yourself, and don't let the school down!"

They were each given twenty lashes, and the two men angrily turned their heads away.

Shu Manling stepped down from the podium, her face beaming with excitement that she couldn't hide from the little incident that had just happened.

Xu Yue no longer cared about being angry with Chen Meizhen. She was happy for Shu Manling: "Congratulations, Shu Manling! Next time we have a class committee meeting, we can walk together!"

"Um!"

Shu Manling sat down happily, and Huang Shifeng gave a few concluding remarks before the class meeting ended.

Shen Heng waited at the back door of their classroom. Xu Yue looked at him and smiled mischievously at Bai Jiaojiao: "Looks like someone's afraid you'll run off with someone else!"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Bai Jiaojiao blushed and walked to Shen Heng's side. Shen Heng had naturally heard Xu Yue's words, so he said to Bai Jiaojiao, "Your friend is really amazing. He left the other person speechless."

"She was right all along, and she even caught her out. If our teacher Huang hadn't interrupted, she could have gone on and on. You've never seen the two of them arguing in the dorm."

Bai Jiaojiao shook her head helplessly.

On the way home, Shen Heng said, "This afternoon, Teacher Jian told me that he wants me to go on a business trip with him. This time it will be a long trip, and I'm worried about leaving you at home alone."

"It's okay, I'm not home alone, DouDou is here to protect me!"
