My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

Chapter 144 - I Will Make Sure To Enjoy My Prize (2)

Once everyone had taken their seats, the teacher arrived. The test papers were passed around, and Shen Minyao flashed a wicked smile in Xu Shenshen's direction, the girl just a few seats to her right. She then started working on her paper as soon as she received the exam. 

Xu Shenshen felt disturbed by Shen Minyao's smile, which she found rather unusual and irritating at the same time. She felt an ominous feeling as silence fell within the room, with only the ticking of the clock heard around her. 

Was she worried that Shen Minyao would truly win the bet against her and Shen Qing? No, impossible! 

Shen Minyao would be very conceited if she thought she could! 

Xu Shenshen cursed Shen Minyao on her heart.. The look in her eyes was filled with sarcasm as she looked towards Shen Minyao. While it was true that Shen Minyao had come from a wealthy family and a good background, it wouldn't be enough for her to stomp down on someone like Xu Shenshen. Or so she thought. 

A person like Shen Minyao wanted to bully her and humiliate Shen Qing at the same time? That was absolutely ridiculous!

Was Shen Minyao not afraid of being disowned by her own family if she dared to lay a hand on Shen Qing?

Xu Shenshen didn't think so. If Shen Minyao lost her family's support, then she would be nothing but a commoner without a title, like the rest of them. 

"Focus on your paper and do not look around!" 

The teacher's voice rang within the room, pulling Xu Shenshen back to reality. She hurriedly pushed her thoughts about Shen Minyao aside and answered her papers. Although she didn't have a good reputation among her peers, her scores weren't lacking and could even be considered good. 

Shen Minyao had no idea about the disgusting thoughts Xu Shenshen had against her, but she wouldn't care even if she knew, anyway. She was currently focused on the paper, as this would be the first time for her to take an exam in her long years as a demon. 

As far as she was concerned, the questions on her test papers weren't that difficult to begin with. They were the same questions from the notes and textbooks she read earlier, just phrased differently to confuse her and the rest of the students. 

As for the history and essays, it was a piece of cake for the fox woman. Considering she had been alive for a long time, it was normal for her to be familiar with poems that humans usually make. She only had a slight difficulty in mathematics, something that she had already expected to happen. 

Even with Zhao Yichen and Li Fei'er's assistance, she still failed to have a grasp on the formulas and equations she'd been trying to understand for days. Perhaps, Qin Zhi would be able to teach her some, considering that he was now working as a CEO of a company. It wouldn't be hard for him since he was the smarter one between them. 

Shen Minyao completed today's exams in less than two hours, much to everyone's shock and surprise. 

Xu Shenshen was slightly startled when she saw Shen Minyao submitting the papers ahead of them, but she then sneered with sarcasm. It would be impossible for anyone to finish that fast, unless they just made random guesses about the question or that they didn't pay attention to them. 

Xu Shenshen assumed that Shen Minyao passed the papers because she couldn't answer them and chose to submit the papers early to avoid humiliation. 

Of course, that wasn't really the case. Shen Minyao felt like she was worrying about nothing once she finished answering her papers. Fu Xiyan and Li Fei'er made it sound that their lives depended on it and that they couldn't afford to fail.

With her powerful memory, the fox woman managed to soak all the information in the books she had read for the past week in her mind. It was impossible for her to forget the details she had recently read. Although reading it once was enough for her to remember, Shen Minyao had read the same books thrice to make sure that she wouldn't easily forget them. 

For the questions she knew the answer to, Shen Minyao didn't waste time and wrote her answers. As for those tricky questions that were obviously prepared by the teacher, she only needed to read them twice and a moment to understand each before she jotted down words. 

In the past, when she was still an imperial noble consort, she used to read several scrolls as a pastime; while Feng Jiu managed the household expenses of her house. This was why she never really gave the numbers some thought until she started living as Shen Minyao in this era. 

She could easily learn the basics using the currency of this nation. Everything in here was being controlled by money, that even influence and morals could be brought. However, that was for another matter. The fox woman only painstakingly studied how it worked. 

Shen Minyao then had to learn to speak foreign languages. Had it not been for her host's memories, the fox woman had no doubt that she would have a hard time learning it. Cheng Lifan was managing a company, and the woman had wanted Shen Minyao to follow in her footsteps and succeed in the company in the future. Not only did she need to learn mathematics and business management, but she also needed to speak foreign languages. 

Upon stepping out of the classroom, Shen Minyao paused and did a rough estimate of her score for the exams. Aside from the essay that would be graded at the discretion of the teacher, the fox woman was certain she had gotten full marks on the others. 

Her score should be enough to beat Shen Qing and Xu Shenshen at the same time, and she would be able to hear and witness their pitiful cries later.
