The Big-Shot is Pampered after She Becomes the Villainness

52 Counterattack

“Sister!” Just as the bell rang, Shi Mu rushed to the director’s office. He pushed away the crowd outside the door and squeezed his way to Shi Man’s side. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that she was safe.

“Director Zou,… ”

Shi Mu was about to say something when Shi Man grabbed his arm and stopped him.

“Director Zou, if I can prove that I have the ability to get into the top rankings, can it mean that I didn’t collude with Shi Jing and didn’t look at the questions in advance?”

When she said this, not to mention the others present, even Shi Mu, her brother, felt that it was impossible.

Shi Man had never liked to read or study since she was young. Her results had always been at the bottom, but her family doted on her. Thinking that she did not need to work hard in the future, they did not force her to learn those things she did not like. The entire family only hoped that she would be happy.

But now, his sister seemed to have become a different person. Not only did she not cry and throw herself into his arms to complain and beg for his protection, but she also stopped him from telling the truth and planned to solve the problem herself.

Shi Mu could not accept this change for a moment and stood rooted to the ground.

Hu Jing treated Shi Man’s words as a provocation and immediately said angrily, “If you really have the ability to surpass my students, then I’ll admit that you have the ability.”

“You still have to apologize to me.” Shi Man’s black eyes were calm as if she did not think that she had said something unbelievable. She raised her eyelids lazily and glanced at Song Zhi behind her. “And you, you have to apologize to me too.”

“Okay.” Song Zhi agreed immediately. She did not believe that Shi Man could really do it!

She had long felt humiliated that her exam results were below that of Shi Man’s. She even took the initiative to propose a competition with Shi Man in front of all the students. “If your results are higher than mine, I’ll naturally apologize to you, but if you can’t do it at all, drop out of school. Don’t tarnish the reputation of Cassel Academy here!”

“Manman.” Su Tang couldn’t help but tug Shi Man’s arm. “Why don’t we think of another way?”

Although she was confident in Shi Man, the reason why Song Zhi could always be ranked at the top was definitely because of her strength. If Shi Man was unlucky this time and could not surpass her, wouldn’t she lose her future for nothing?

“No need. This method is very good.” Shi Man looked up at Director Zou. “Then I’ll have to trouble you to produce an exam paper on the spot.”

The teachers clearly did not expect things to develop to this extent, but this was indeed a good idea. Director Zou nodded in agreement and looked at Shi Jing with uncertain eyes. “Come and take the exam with them.”

“I, I,…” Shi Jing’s lips were trembling so much that she could not speak. She did not have the confidence to take the test again.

She couldn’t help but glare at Shi Man venomously, hating her for still showing off at a time like this.

Director Zou was familiar with the learning progress of this grade. She quickly produced an exam paper and handed it to the three of them, telling the other students to retreat to the corridor and not to disturb the exam.

Song Zhi looked at the question in her hand and started answering confidently.

To her, exams had long become a common occurrence. This was simply an easy thing for her. Other than the last big question being a little difficult, she could do the other questions easily.

On the other hand, Shi Jing’s results were only average. At this moment, she was holding a pen and thinking hard about a few difficult questions. She was conflicted for a long time and did not know how to answer.

Song Zhi retracted her gaze smugly. After checking the test paper in her hand, she handed it to Director Zou and looked at Shi Man proudly.

Only then did she realize that everyone’s gaze was on Shi Man. Seeing how focused she was on answering the questions, she did not look like she was writing blindly.

“She’s just pretending!” Song Zhi pursed her lips and muttered to herself.

Only Hu Jing knew that Shi Man’s behavior was consistent with how she took the exam that day. She buried her head in her paper and did not show any signs of cheating.

She wanted to do the same and walk over to see if Shi Man had really answered the questions. However, because Director Zou was beside her, she could only grit her teeth and endure it.

Fortunately, after a while, Shi Man put down her pen and skipped the steps of checking the test paper. After writing her name, she handed it to Director Zou to evaluate the paper.

Seeing that the exam had ended, the students outside squeezed in restlessly. Su Tang and Shi Mu were in front, waiting nervously for the test results.

This time, Hu Jing and Geng Hui evaluated the paper together. No one was allowed to play favorites. Director Zou watched quietly from the side and quickly saw a trace of panic on Hu Jing’s face.

“Teacher Hu, what’s wrong?” Song Zhi also sensed that something was wrong with her. She hurriedly stood up and walked to her side, looking down at Shi Man’s paper.
