Chapter 611 First Encounter As the morning sunlight shifted from the classroom window to the base of the wall, the bell finally rang to signal the end of the last exam.
Gu Luo put his pen on the test paper, ran his finger over the answer to the last big question, leaned back in his chair, and stretched comfortably—his spine made a slight "click" sound. He squinted slightly, his face showing a nonchalant laziness.
These questions were far too easy for him. He could spot the answers to the multiple-choice questions with a glance, and he could come up with the solutions to the more complex questions effortlessly, as if they were nothing more than a simple one-plus-one arithmetic problem.
He turned his head to look at Shen Qingling, who was tidying up her stationery beside him, and gently tapped her desk with his fingertips: "Qingling, how did the exam go?"
Shen Qingling paused in putting her pen back into her pencil case, looked up at him, her eyes showing a hint of relief from just finishing an exam, and a slight smile curved her lips: "Pretty good, now I just want to..."
"Gu Shen! Gu Shen, over here!"
She had only spoken halfway when a hurried voice came from the front of the classroom.
Yang Huihui, like a cheerful little sparrow, rushed over, her school uniform skirt trailing behind her. When she reached Gu Luo's desk, she hadn't stopped in time and almost bumped into the corner of the desk. Luckily, Gu Luo reached out and caught her.
"That scared me to death!"
Yang Huihui patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief, then asked with a curious look, "This exam was really difficult. I didn't even finish the last big question. How did you do?"
Gu Luo never liked to hide anything or play dumb to get ahead, so he curled the corners of his mouth and said in a natural tone, "That's good, getting first place shouldn't be a problem."
"Tsk tsk, still bragging!" Yang Huihui immediately rolled her eyes and tapped his desk. "I know you used to have good grades, but lately you've been dating and having scandals, and you're always taking leave. Your mind is elsewhere. You want to get first place? You'll have to ride on Hanhan's back first!"
Riding on Hanhan's back... Gu Luo's lips twitched at these suggestive words. Just as he was about to retort, he saw Lin Han walk over as well.
She had clearly overheard their conversation; her fair face tightened slightly, and she pursed her lips to express her speechlessness towards her best friend.
Of course, she only ever had one goal in mind: Luo Shuning from Guangya. As for Gu Luo's suggestion of "getting first place," she didn't care at all.
The four chatted for a few minutes, mainly about the difficulty of the exam questions and the concert.
As Gu Luo spoke, he caught envious glances from the boys around him—after all, being surrounded by three "flowers" with different styles, Yang Huihui, Shen Qingling, and Lin Han, was a unique privilege at Mingde.
As soon as the group reached the entrance of the cafeteria, they saw a petite figure rushing angrily toward them.
Gu Ximan clenched her fists, her cheeks flushed red, and her gaze shot straight at Shen Qingling like a knife, clearly she was holding back a lot of anger.
Shen Qingling narrowed her eyes slightly, raised an eyebrow, and before Gu Ximan could speak, she greeted her with a smile: "Xiaoman, what a coincidence? How did the exam go? With your efforts, can you get into the top five in the grade this time?"
This statement was a killer move.
The words "You used underhanded tricks" that Gu Ximan was about to say were instantly choked in her throat, as if someone had grabbed her by the throat. Her face turned from red to white in an instant, and then from white to red again.
Forget about being in the top five of the grade, she couldn't even get close to being in the top five of her class.
Of all her sisters, she had the worst grades and had absolutely no talent for studying. She was lucky if she could stay in the middle of the class.
Students passing by looked on curiously. Gu Ximan twisted her skirt with her fingers, so embarrassed that she almost dug her toes out of her skin. She opened her mouth but couldn't utter a single word.
This is the helplessness of a poor student.
Seeing the little idiot fall silent instantly, Shen Qingling couldn't help but smile, reached out and pinched her soft little face, her tone teasing: "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Are you hungry? Let's go in and have lunch."
After saying that, he turned around and walked briskly into the cafeteria.
But as soon as she turned around, the smile on Shen Qingling's face completely disappeared, and a trace of solemnity flashed in her eyes.
The naive Xiaoman, who was completely fooled by her in the morning, came to settle scores with her in the afternoon in a fit of rage. This was definitely not something Xiaoman could understand on her own.
There must be a mastermind behind this.
And this expert, unsurprisingly, is none other than Lu Xuexue, who appears obedient but is actually quite shrewd.
Shen Qingling gently bit her back teeth, thinking to herself—her sixth sense was right, Lu Xuexue, this little white fox, was even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined.
