Chapter 33: Playing Hard To Get

Chu Yan didn’t believe that Ye Qingran would do badly in the exam.

No matter who Ye Qingran was now, with his understanding of the current Ye Qingran, if Ye Qingran didn’t have enough confidence, he wouldn’t have made such a bet with Hua Chi.

Therefore, he only took a glance at Ye Qingran.

He didn’t say anything.

Ye Qingran’s little face turned bitter as she looked at Chu Yan anxiously. “Brother, I did so badly in the exam. Aren’t you going to comfort me?”

Chu Ruoruo, who was beside her, said considerately, “Brother Ran, I’ll comfort you. It’s okay. Grades aren’t everything. Besides, you’re so smart. It’s just that the time for review was too short. On the next exam, you might even get the first place, let alone the 100th place.”

Ye Qingran praised, “Ruoruo, you’re really a little angel.”

Chu Ruoruo immediately smiled shyly.

Chu Yan only looked at Ye Qingran meaningfully and said indifferently, “Your Adam’s apple hasn’t grown out yet, so you’re not a man?”

This sudden sentence made Ye Qingran widen her almond-shaped eyes.

After being stunned for a full three seconds, she replied with a little amusement, “Why did you suddenly say that I’m not a man? Are you scolding me or what?”

If she was really a man, she would probably explode.

Chu Ruoruo pursed her lips and helped to speak up, “Brother, Brother Ran is very manly.”

Ye Qingran: “...” Compared to being called unmanly, being called manly was more painful to hear.

Chu Yan’s expression was very serious. He even used the tone of an Elder and said, “If you’re a man, you won’t be defeated by an exam.”

Ye Qingran: “...”

Was he trying to comfort her? !

Her eyes curved and she couldn’t help but smile. “Brother, if you want to comfort me, you have to be practical. Treat me to some delicious food. How about hotpot? I heard that hotpot can soothe broken hearts the most.”

Chu Ruoruo nodded and chuckled. “Brother, I really want to eat hotpot. Why don’t we have hotpot tonight?”

Chu Yan watched them backing each other up and his eyes darkened slightly.

“Go back to your room and do your homework,” Chu Yan said. When he turned around and went upstairs, he replied, “Auntie will come to cook later. Tell her what you want to eat.”

“Long live brother.”

Chu Ruoruo couldn’t help but call out.

She then smiled at Ye Qingran and said, “Brother Ran, there’s nothing that can’t be solved with a hotpot meal. If there is, then make it two meals.”

Ye Qingran: “...”

She was such a cute little angel.

Because of her, it wasn’t so bad to be in a book.

Too bad she wasn’t a man.

Otherwise, she would have taken the little angel home.

After each monthly exam, the top 100 students will be announced on Sunday afternoon and posted on the bulletin board outside the main gate of the academic building.

It could be seen when the students came to school on Monday.

The bet between Ye Qingran and Hua Chi attracted a lot of attention in the school.

Early on Monday morning, many people ran to the bulletin board to look for Ye Qingran’s name.

Her name wasn’t easy to find. Everyone started from the top 100. Coincidentally, she ranked at 100th.

The school’s website was buzzing.

“No way, there must be a mistake. Ye Qingran, that good-for-nothing, that scumbag of a student, actually got into the top 100. I don’t believe it. I won’t believe it even if I die.”

“I don’t believe it either. He cheated, right?”

“He definitely cheated. No matter how much he reviewed the materials, even if he took a rocket, he wouldn’t get into the top 100.”

“I just went to ask around. Ye Qingran sat next to Hua hi during the exam. He must have secretly copied Hua Chi’s answers.”

“Then this Hua Chi is too pitiful. Why did he cover up when he answered the questions? He lost so unjustly.”

..

At this moment, Hua Chi also saw the ranking list of the top 100 in the grade.

He couldn’t believe his own eyes, much less believe that this was Ye Qingran’s exam score.

What kind of joke was this?

Ye Qingran, that idiot, was a useless and bad student.

No matter how hard he tried, it was impossible for him to get into the top 100.

He must have cheated.

But he also remembered that when he answered the questions, he was very careful and guarded against Ye Qingran.

Logically speaking, it was impossible for Ye Qingran to copy his answers.

Did he copy from the book?

But the monthly exam was very strict. There were two teachers in one exam room.

And it was equipped with the most advanced and strongest signal jammer.

It was impossible to use any high-tech to copy the answers.

Of course, there was another possibility.

In the situation where Ye Qingran’s grades were terrible and he couldn’t copy the answers yet Ye Qingran could score so high...

That meant..

Hua Chi looked up and saw Ye Qingran enter the classroom. He immediately stood up and asked loudly, “Ye Qingran, did you know the answers in advance?”

Ye Qingran looked at him expressionlessly.

The anger, disdain, and hatred in Hua Chi’s eyes made Ye Qingran feel a hint of ruthlessness in her heart.

Not only did this Hua Chi act shamelessly, but he was also unwilling to accept the result of the bet and apologize to her.

He even wanted to frame her.

She didn’t bother about it. He would occasionally make sarcastic remarks at her, but that was because she couldn’t be bothered with him.

It didn’t mean that he could bully her.

There were some people who needed to be taught a lesson!

Ye Qingran blinked and her expression changed.

She averted her gaze and acted shifty. There was unconcealed panic in her tone. “Don’t slander me.”

At first, Hua Chi was just guessing that Ye Qingran knew the answer in advance.

But after seeing Ye Qingran’s series of flustered and guilty reactions, he instantly confirmed his suspicions.

He was delighted and raised his voice. “You still want to quibble? Ye Qingran, you cheated!”

Ye Qingran’s eyes widened, and a hint of helplessness flashed through her eyes.

Then, she clenched her fists and said, “You cheated. Nanfang High School’s monthly exam is so strict, and all the questions are kept by the dean. How could I know the answers in advance?”

After saying that, she went around Hua Chi and returned to her seat.

She didn’t immediately let Hua Chi fulfill the bet.

This made Hua Chi even more convinced about what he was thinking.

Ye Qingran didn’t chase after him for him to apologize because he felt guilty.

It was because he was afraid that the matter would be exposed.

Everyone knew that the Dean was fierce and unreasonable. He especially despised the poor and loved the rich.

Ye Qingran must have spent money to find the dean in advance and buy the exam papers. Then, he got someone to write down the answers, and Ye Qingran memorized the answers.

It must be like this! !

Hua Chi wasn’t afraid of losing.

But he couldn’t accept losing to Ye Qingran in this way.

This Ye Qingran was really too despicable and shameless.

Too vicious.

He had to expose such a shady matter and dirty deal.

Hua Chi didn’t think much before he immediately went to the school website and posted.

[ Comment: Ye Qingran was able to enter the top 100 because he bought all the papers for the six subjects in advance. ]

The moment this post was posted, it instantly blew up.

Almost everyone didn’t believe that Ye Qingran, who was always at the bottom, could really get into the top 100 by himself.

And the only way he could buy all the papers for the six subjects at the same time was if it was from the hands of the Dean.

Therefore, under the comments, it was said that the Dean sold the exams to Ye Qingran.

The matter was very serious...
