Chapter 15 Why Don't You Resist
Fu Mingshuang, who had always been at ease with her second-to-last ranking in the school, got first place in the exam.
After her father, Fu Zhenchuan, received the good news from the principal, he called her from thousands of kilometers away and excitedly...
Scolded.
"Are you ignoring my words?! Men only like women they can control. I asked you to play dumb and get first place in the exam, stealing the limelight from his mother Ling Xiuzhu. Let me ask you, which is more important, good grades or marrying into the Lu family?!"
Not only was her father unhappy, but everyone in the school was also unhappy.
The first and second place winners existed because Lu Shiyu “failed” in the last mock exam.
But this time, the great player performed normally, but was overtaken by a "fool" vase by 0.5 points.
Cai Shuya, who had always ranked tenth, was now eleventh. She lay on her desk and cried loudly. She even called in sick for the afternoon class meeting.
The classmate who pushed her out of the top ten, after changing her doll into a beautiful dress, went on stage to receive the award as the first in the grade.
Lu Shiyu, the second place, stood next to her.
The girls in the audience pointed at her. Fu Mingshuang raised her chin, looked at them provocatively, and deliberately leaned towards Lu Shiyu.
Lu Shiyu silently moved to the side, but there was also a girl on the other side, so in the end, he had no choice but to let Fu Mingshuang stick to him.
There was a chorus of boos from the audience, and several girls who led the clique called her shameless.
"I guess I spent money to buy first place just to be on the same stage with my idol before graduation."
"What's the point? Master Lu went to Peking University. Can she afford to go to Peking University?"
"It's definitely a leak! I heard their homeroom teacher even gave her extra lessons!"
"I think the school is going to build Mingshuang Building again, right?"
Fu Mingshuang took the certificate from the principal, then walked to the sidelines, snatched the microphone from the host, and started shouting.
"Shut the fuck up!"
The microphone emitted a shrill whistle, and the whole audience fell silent.
Lu Shiyu, who was about to leave, also stopped and turned around to look at her.
"You're ugly and your mouth is foul. Don't hide. I mean, you four-eyed mushroom-headed guy, you enjoy cursing, right?"
"What? You don't like me? Come on, stand right here if you can! Can you make it up here?"
"Also, the one with the middle-parted, straight black hair, the same as Sadako's, here, here's the microphone, swear louder."
"If anyone still refuses to accept this, stand up and I'll scold you!"
The girls who were making trouble in the audience all lowered their heads in anger, closed their mouths and stared blankly.
Looking at their cowardly appearance, Fu Mingshuang was even more disdainful and sneered:
"I'm here to play house with you guys, and you guys really want to be a mother?"
She put the microphone back into the host's hands, turned around and left the stage. As she passed by Lu Shiyu, she placed the first-place certificate on his chest with her palm.
"Sister rewards you."
She retreated to the backstage and was pulled from behind into layers of curtains.
Fu Mingshuang was stunned, then smiled when he saw it was Lu Shiyu.
Thousands of teachers and students sat in the auditorium. The principal gave a passionate speech on the stage, while the two students with the best grades hid behind the curtain backstage.
"We are like this, it feels so good to be a good student~"
Facing Fu Mingshuang's teasing, Lu Shiyu remained silent, staring at her with his amber pupils.
"What's wrong? Are you angry? Is it because I hit you and it hurt?" Fu Mingshuang stroked his face.
"I've always been so high and mighty, but now I realize I'm not superior to others. Does that make me feel bad?"
Lu Shiyu pushed her hand away, lowered his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Fu Mingshuang, why don't you resist?"
"What?" Fu Mingshuang couldn't respond.
"You're a swan, so why would you be willing to have your wings plucked and thrown into the nest of the ugly ducklings?"
Fu Mingshuang was stunned for a moment, then her eyes darkened. She turned to leave, but Lu Shiyu grabbed her wrist.
"You taught me to resist, but what about you? Did you resist when your wings were plucked out?"
He stuffed the certificate belonging to Fu Mingshuang back into her hands.
A neat and smooth piece of paper suddenly had a few more wrinkles.
Fu Mingshuang looked at the certificate in her hand. It had "First Place" written on it in bright red, which seemed particularly ironic.
But she said it calmly: "I resisted, but failed."
"Then accept your fate?" Lu Shiyu continued to ask.
"No, I'm just waiting for an opportunity." Fu Mingshuang crumpled the certificate in his hand into a ball, completely wrinkling it, and moved closer to Lu Shiyu.
"You are my only chance."
That's why she would try every possible means to pester him.
Lu Shiyu locked his gaze with Fu Mingshuang and raised his chin.
"Fu Mingshuang, you are so pitiful..."
"...You could have carved out a smooth path for yourself, but now, your path is tied to me."
Fu Mingshuang shrugged nonchalantly: "To resist, there must be sacrifices."
"Then I'm a little curious about the extent to which you can sacrifice."
As soon as Lu Shiyu finished speaking, the principal also ended his passionate speech, and thunderous applause broke out in the venue.
Fu Mingshuang raised an eyebrow.
She seemed to have unknowingly torn a hole in her perfect appearance.
"So, how much sacrifice do you want me to make?"
Fu Mingshuang traced Lu Shiyu's jawline with her fingertips, moving all the way down, past his Adam's apple, around his heart, and continuing down...
The heavy curtains overlapped, leaving only a tiny gap to peek inside. The principal was behind them, approaching step by step.
Lu Shiyu held Fu Mingshuang's hand with unprecedented strength, which made Fu Mingshuang feel a little pain.
"Since you insist on pestering me, I will accompany you to the end. We...
"...See you at Kyoto University."
Lu Shiyu turned and left before the principal opened the curtain.
