Not to mention other people's feelings, even Zeng Fang looked at her friend with an indescribable expression.

How could such a good girl fall into the trap of money?

I don’t know if it was because he was so angry at the loss, or because he was sure that Yun Mo would never get such a good score again, but after Dan Zhenzhen paid out 100 yuan to fulfill the bet, he actually accepted the next bet with Yun Mo.

"Okay! I'll bet with you. This time I'll bet 200, no, 300. Yun Mo, do you dare to take it?"

Don’t be a fool if money comes to your door.

"OK."

Birds of a feather flock together. Seeing that Shan Zhenzhen was betting so big, several people who had played well with Shan Zhenzhen also came to place bets, and each one bet more than the other.

They all believed that Yun Mo could not possibly get a higher score than this time, and they tried their best to win back the money they lost this time.

Yun Mo made a rough estimate and thought that she would win about five or six hundred yuan this time.

There is a golden house in the book, and the ancients were not deceiving her.

At Jiangcheng No. 3 Middle School, the bulletin board where the unified examination score rankings were posted was also crowded with students, who were excitedly discussing the top ten academic achievers in the city.

Yun Yao was also among them, but she was not too concerned about the top ten in the city. She was concentrating on finding her ranking.

She was very self-aware and looked from the 100th place onwards, 150, 200, 250. Seeing that her name was not in the second to last column, she felt uneasy but also excited.

Could it be that she performed well this time and made it into the top 100?

Just as she was hesitating whether to turn around and count forward, she suddenly saw her name in the last column.

No, she must have seen it wrong.

Yun Yao quickly shook her head and took a deep breath. Then she looked at the last column with great trepidation.

When she saw the two neatly written characters "Yun Yao" in cursive script in the row with number 270, Yun Yao's face turned pale and she felt like she had fallen into the bottom of the icy sea, shivering with cold.

270th place, she actually ranked 270th! ?

There are only 285 students in the third grade of high school in No. 3 Middle School. Among the bottom ten, two were absent from the exam due to illness, and several were rich second-generations who had no education and relied on connections to get in. And she was just above these people.

Wouldn't her hard work during this period of staying up late to study be a joke? Although no one around her cared about her test scores, she still felt ashamed and embarrassed as if she had been stripped naked.

Back in the classroom, the classmates were all excitedly discussing their grades and rankings, or where to go for fun on the next day off. No one even looked at her, as if she was a transparent person.

This invisible isolation and exclusion made her feel far more depressed and uncomfortable than if she was laughed at in person.

Yun Yao sat in her seat, took out her exercise book, and planned to calm herself down by doing exercises and studying.

But when she looked at the questions in the exercise book, she couldn't concentrate at all, and all kinds of noises filled her ears.

The harder she tried to block out the outside sounds, the more they penetrated her ears, as if countless people were talking loudly in her ears with loudspeakers.

Yun Yao tried hard to hold it back, but eventually she couldn't hold it back and exploded.

She slammed the table, "Can you please stop talking? It's so noisy!"

It was as if the pause button had been pressed. The classroom suddenly became quiet and everyone looked at her in surprise and astonishment.

What did she do? She told everyone to stop making noise during recess?

But before she could open her mouth to explain, everyone turned their gaze away and continued to discuss the previous topic as if nothing had happened, completely unaffected by her "crazy" behavior.

To be more precise, no one cared about her thoughts and feelings, and no one took her seriously at all.

All the students in this classroom are academic masters or top students. They disdain to argue with Yun Yao, a poor student, and will not associate with her.

Yun Yao felt like a clown. The shame and inferiority in her heart were about to drive her crazy. She threw down her pen, stood up and hurriedly left the classroom, hiding in the toilet.

But the restroom was not quiet either. Several girls from other classes were gathered together discussing something with great interest.

Yun Yao didn't want to pay attention, but a familiar noun made her stop.

"I really didn't expect that the top ten in the city would be taken away by the unknown Nan Ming. Even the top student in No. 6 Middle School is only ranked 15th in the city."

"Is it just shit luck? Nanming used to be at the bottom, but the top 100 students in our school can be ranked in the top three in Nanming."

"Who knows? Anyway, I got this kind of result. I can't help but accept it."

"This year, Nanming poached several top senior students from other schools. Could the eighth-place finisher in the city be one of those top students?"

"I heard that the girl who ranked eighth in the city is quite pretty. Her name is Yun Mo or something."

Hearing this, Yun Yao almost laughed out loud.

With Yun Mo's last-place score, she still ranked eighth in the city? Eighth from the bottom is pretty much the best.

She rudely mocked the girl who said Yun Mo ranked eighth in the city, "Don't you know how to distinguish the truth from the lies when spreading rumors? Yun Mo was a notorious poor student in No. 6 Middle School and was expelled from school for cheating. How could someone like her rank eighth in the city?"

Although Yun Mo clarified the cheating incident at Jiang Yu's birthday party, only a few people heard it at the time. These people were not familiar with Yun Mo, so naturally they would not help Yun Mo to clarify the matter.

"It seems to be true. My cousin is from No. 6 Middle School. I heard her talk about this during the summer vacation."

Upon learning that Yun Mo was such a bad student with a long history of bad deeds, the girl who had heard that Yun Mo ranked eighth in the city blushed and said, "I heard this from others."

Yun Yao sneered complacently, "With Yun Mo's grades, it's possible that she'll rank eighth from the bottom in the city!"

As if sensing her hostility towards Yun Mo, one girl asked in confusion: "Do you know Yun Mo?"

"She and I were in the same class before, and I know her level better than any of you."

So that's how it is.

Seeing Yun Yao's solemn assurance, the girl who was rumored to have ranked eighth in the city did not dare to say a word. She was wondering in her heart if she had heard it wrong. Perhaps they were talking about Zhang Mo, Li Mo, or Chen Mo.

—

Although Zeng Fang despised her friend's money-driven character, she was inexplicably confident that her friend would win next time. At the same time, she did not forget the bet she had made with Yun Mo.

"Momo, we agreed that whoever ranked lower would buy dinner. I lost this time. What do you want to eat?"

Yun Mo held her chin and thought for a while, "Seafood dinner?"

"No problem." Zeng Fang suddenly hugged her arm and said, "Momo, I'm really happy!"

Looking at Zeng Fang who was so carefree and happy, Yun Mo teased her with amusement, "Have you become stupid from studying? You're still so happy when I treat you to a meal after you lose."
