So what if you have money?
One point and one second later, resentment set in.
Chi Chan felt wronged: "Having money makes you great. If I were Ji Siyuan, I would have bowed down for this 30% profit long ago."
People should not take chances and recklessly test the limits of danger.
Like this time, she originally thought it was nothing, just using the name of the academic genius to subtly promote Ji Siyuan a little bit!
In truth, this had no impact on Ji Siyuan whatsoever. On the contrary, it secretly enhanced his reputation as a top student, and even made her wallet bulge.
Ji Siyuan gained fame and she gained profit—what a win-win situation!
Unfortunately, Ji Siyuan is not short of money and does not care whether his reputation is resounding or not, which makes things difficult!
Chi Chan scratched her hair in distress.
Finally, in a fit of desperation, he said, "The 'genius' series is no longer available in bookstores. Ji Siyuan, we're all classmates, there's no need to make things so awkward! You can say I'm wrong, I admit it, please forgive me!"
If you don't forgive me, I will follow you and beg for your forgiveness until you do!
Ji Siyuan gritted his teeth: "You've been following me like a mangy dog that I can't shake off. Is this how you apologize?"
Chi Chan blinked: "Yes! I've been following you and serving you to atone for my sins, hoping that this will earn your forgiveness!"
Ji Siyuan's face darkened immediately: "You don't need to follow me anymore, I forgive you!"
Chi Chan mentally gave a thumbs-up. Sure enough, Ji Siyuan, with his solitary nature, was most afraid of creatures like mangy dogs.
On the surface, Chi Chan appeared flattered: "Ji Siyuan, you really forgive me? That's wonderful! You threw away all your stationery and study guides last time, is there anything you need now? I can give it to you."
Ji Siyuan's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot: "No need!"
"Oh dear, how could we not need them? These books are all bestsellers right now!"
"Best-selling?"
Ji Siyuan practically spat out those words through clenched teeth, barely able to maintain his composure.
Chi Chan covered her mouth, but accidentally blurted out the truth.
"Yes, my bookstore only sells a few tutoring books, and every single one of them is a bestseller!"
Chi Chan smoothed things over.
Ji Siyuan kindly rolled his eyes at Chi Chan.
Chi Chan:......
Chi Chan's expression remained unchanged: "Ji, are you really sure you don't want it? This set of study guides is very expensive, and I sincerely wanted to give it to you!"
"Shut up! Say it again: I—don't—want! Don't bother me again, and this matter ends here!"
After uttering those words, Ji Siyuan walked away without looking back.
The cicadas remained in the pond, sighing incessantly.
That's really expensive, over two hundred yuan.
It's such a waste to just say you don't want it!
Chi Chan sighed, not minding Ji Siyuan's bad attitude at all, since her goal had already been achieved.
Ji Siyuan himself said that he had forgiven her.
She could then go back and report to Zhang Qiaoyue and Chi Minghe with a clear conscience.
Because Chi Chan was too talkative and shameless, Ji Siyuan always had a deadpan expression towards her for a long time afterward.
Chi Chan didn't care about this. The only thing was that she was a little disappointed. A beautiful woman with a cold face is always less attractive than one with a warm face, which affected her mood to some extent.
Soon, the midterm exams following the class division arrived, and this time, only six subjects were tested.
Chi Chan performed consistently, ranking 180th in the entire grade.
Shu Jia clutched her English test paper, which she had carelessly filled in the wrong answer sheet with, resulting in a terrible score. She was on the verge of tears.
Having just finished explaining the incorrect questions, Teacher Qiu brought the students of Class 7 the latest news issued by the school.
"To boost everyone's enthusiasm for learning, the school encourages classes to form mutual-aid study groups. ... Well, our class won't go through anything too complicated. We'll form groups based on your deskmates, and everyone can supervise and encourage each other! ... However, the school also has requirements for forming these groups... So, in accordance with the school's requirements, let's all work hard in our groups and strive to improve our overall ranking by the end of the semester to equal your average ranking in this exam! ... Deskmates who don't meet the requirements—hehe, you know what that means, the usual punishment!!!"
After delivering the notice in a flurry, Old Qiu hurriedly left, clearly very busy.
The class instantly erupted in excitement.
"After the final exams, the overall ranking will improve by the average ranking of the two of us! Hahaha, that's too easy! Qiu Hao and I are ranked together. As long as we maintain this ranking at the end of the semester, we don't need to improve it at all; it's just the average ranking."
"You're lucky. There are dozens of places between me and Zhang Yun. That means that if Zhang Yun doesn't fall behind, I need to improve by 27 places!!! Sigh, I feel like improving by even one point is difficult, let alone 27 places. I don't think I can do it!"
The classmate with poor grades is complacent, while the classmate with significantly lower grades is despondent.
Take Shu Jia, for example; she's now slumped over her desk and doesn't want to move.
"Kill me? I can't, I simply can't!"
Linda was even more straightforward, directly giving up on herself: "I'm prepared to be punished."
Linda ranked third in her grade, and Shujia ranked 315th.
The average ranking is 156th.
In other words, for Linda's final exam scores to not drop, Shujia must rank within the top 156 in the grade to avoid punishment.
Shu Jia filled in the English answer sheet incorrectly this time, which caused her score to be more than 40 points lower than usual.
Even with those extra forty-odd points, the ranking would be around 100.
In other words, Shu Jia's actual ranking is around 200th. If Lin Da is still ranked third at the end of the semester, Shu Jia only needs to improve by about 50 places.
What is the old punishment?
Chi Chan asked, then added, "If it really doesn't work, just give up."
She was ready to give up.
As for Ji Siyuan, who is my deskmate, expecting him to help me out is simply a pipe dream—it's impossible.
Shu Jia answered Chi Chan expressionlessly: "Cleaning the toilets on the entire floor—half a semester."
So ruthless?
Chi Chan: "...I should focus on my studies. I can try to persevere a little longer."
Linda's eyes shot out like sharp arrows, coldly piercing Shu Jia: "I also think—I can still save you!"
Ji Siyuan had obviously heard Shu Jia mention the punishment, and his face immediately darkened.
He said coldly to Chi Chan, "Mutual help is impossible! You must improve your grades before the final exams and not drag me down."
Ji Siyuan practically had "I don't want to clean toilets" written all over his face.
Chi Chan:......
The pressure has increased.
Chi Chan, who has a stable performance and is ranked 180th in the grade, and Ji Siyuan, who is ranked first in the grade, are now deskmates. To achieve this goal, Chi Chan needs to move up a full 90 places.
It's easy to improve from 60 to 90 points, but it's difficult to improve from 90 to 100 points.
