The dramatic breakthrough in her performance was like a ray of dawn, instantly illuminating Zhou Na's world.
For her, the morning felt like an eternity.
She once considered transferring to another school because so many people were giving her strange looks, and she had lost all her friends.
In the class, no one was willing to talk to her; everyone was keeping their distance from her and distancing themselves from her.
And at that moment,
The mock exam results were like a shot in the arm, helping her regain her confidence.
She was the top student in the entire school, with the highest grades.
So what if others ignore her or gossip about her?
Her grades were better than anyone else's, and those who looked down on her were all trampled under her feet.
Why should she care about those whose achievements are far inferior to hers?
Perhaps Zhou Chen was secretly waiting to see her make a fool of herself; if she transferred to another school, it might just be what Zhou Chen wanted.
She can't leave; she has to keep getting first place.
Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan were already looked down upon by Zhou Chen, so she, as the older sister, absolutely refused to be looked down upon.
In an instant, Zhou Na regained her composure. She raised her head, a proud smile appearing on her face, and turned to leave.
Soon behind her, various discussions arose as people saw her name ranked first on the list.
"Why should she be ranked first?"
"They got incredibly lucky."
"I suspect she cheated."
Various unpleasant words kept coming from behind her, but Zhou Na no longer cared about them, taking them all as others' jealousy of her.
So what if you laugh at her, insult her?
Zhou Ling thought of a famous saying: "Be a strong person in life, don't complain about the environment, because the strong are always lonely."
Let the weak talk and be jealous.
She just needs to do her best!
...
Zhou Na jumped from seventh place in the last mock exam to first place on the overall list.
This matter has indeed attracted considerable attention.
Even Zhou Chen had to admire Zhou Na's skill after hearing this, as she managed to surpass everyone ahead of her while ranking seventh in the entire school.
Even in her previous life, Zhou Na had never achieved such excellent results.
It seems that his return to school put pressure on Zhou Na and motivated her to work hard to improve her grades.
He actually helped Zhou Na.
Thinking of this, Zhou Chen felt a little depressed. You see, he had made a great improvement this time, jumping from 57th place to the top ten. Although he was only 10th, the improvement was still several dozen places. Even his homeroom teacher, Wu Yingjie, was shocked and kept saying "good" several times.
Unfortunately, she's still a bit worse than Zhou Na.
"Brother Chen, don't be too sad. You've improved very quickly. With your rate of improvement, you'll definitely surpass her in the next mock exam."
"Furthermore, don't forget, Chen-ge, you're now a sports student, which will give you extra points on the college entrance exam. If you hadn't devoted so much time to training, your ranking might have been even higher."
Li Kaile thought Zhou Chen was upset about hearing that Zhou Na had achieved the best score in the whole school, so he tried to comfort her.
Zhou Chen smiled.
He wasn't that fragile. He knew that his ungrateful second sister was a bad person, but she was indeed talented in her studies.
Catching up won't be that easy.
Zhou Chen didn't think it was a bad thing that Zhou Na got first place; on the contrary, he thought it was a good thing. It would be more interesting to catch up with her and take first place, wouldn't it?
He didn't intend to rely on the extra points for being a sports student to surpass Zhou Na.
Instead, he relied solely on his abilities, achieving a higher score than Zhou Na despite being a sports student. This was the most powerful rebuttal and a slap in the face to Zhou Na's earlier assertion.
Zhou Chen ranked tenth on the list. Although she did not achieve the top score in the entire school, her impact was no less than that of Zhou Na.
After all, Zhou Chen had been out of school for three years, and to achieve such results in just a few months was something anyone could be proud of.
Even Lu Guoliang, upon hearing this ranking, had to admit he was a genius.
Placing Zhou Chen in the entire school team is like having a firefly in the night sky—so conspicuous and so bright.
With scores that crush all other team members, it's safe to say that as long as Zhou Chen performs normally in the college entrance examination, getting into university is a sure thing.
Because his achievements were so outstanding.
In the history of the school team, there has never been a student with such high grades as Zhou Chen. Every student who joins the school team is terrible at academic subjects.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been teased by their classmates as a group of simple-minded, physically strong people.
"Brother Chen, your presence has completely proven to our school team that we are not just physically strong, we also have brains."
"Yeah, let's see who dares to laugh at us for being simple-minded and only good at sports. Our Brother Chen is not only excellent in sports, but also has amazing grades. If you're not convinced, come and challenge us."
Zhou Chen ranked tenth in the whole school. Zhou Chen himself was not very excited. The whole school team was happier than him, as if they were the ones who got good results.
Seeing everyone's reactions, Zhou Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
You're already this excited about only being tenth place. What will you all be like when he gets first place?
The school team was filled with joy.
Zhou Na also learned that Zhou Chen had achieved a commendable tenth place in the entire school.
She was indeed stunned for quite a while when she first heard about it.
When I was looking at the rankings before, I was only happy to be number one and forgot to check Zhou Chen's ranking. I never expected that Zhou Chen could improve so much and still get such a score while putting time into training.
This added a sense of crisis to Zhou Na's heart, which was originally filled with the joy of being the first place winner.
She had thought it would take Zhou Chen several months to catch up, but it turned out she had underestimated Zhou Chen. If she had made a mistake in this mock exam or performed poorly, she might have been overtaken by Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen's improvement is too fast. Nobody knows how much he can improve in the next mock exam.
If she wants to keep her number one spot on the list...
To avoid being overtaken by Zhou Chen, we must work even harder and put in even more effort.
On the other end,
In a bungalow, Old Mrs. Zhao was furious, standing in the yard, ranting and raving.
“Ever since my son got together with you, he’s had no good life. You’ve caused him to be arrested multiple times. You’re a jinx.”
“Other women bring good fortune to their husbands, but what good are you? You only bring trouble to our Zhao family. If I hadn’t heard about this from others, I wouldn’t have known anything about it. My son almost went to jail because of you, do you know that?”
Old Mrs. Zhao somehow found out that Zhou Na had sent a false text message, which led to Zhao Kun being taken to the police station for questioning.
He immediately stood angrily in the yard, cursing and blaming Zhou Ling, showing no respect whatsoever and disregarding the gazes of the surrounding neighbors.
Surprisingly, Zhou Ling did not refute this time.
Because the fault truly lies with her.
If she didn't apologize to Zhou Chen in public, both she and Zhao Kun would be punished. Based on this, and not wanting Old Madam Zhao to find out, she compromised. Unexpectedly, the truth eventually came out, and Old Madam Zhao still found out.
