Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 104 Treasure Girl

Jiang Tianyao bit her lip, a little afraid of Shi Sui, and mustered her courage to say, "Shi Sui, the rankings haven't been released yet, so our bet can be cancelled. You don't need to apologize to me. I also made mistakes, but, but—"

Netizens: What?! After following this drama for half a month, they're actually canceling the bet?!

"Why cancel?" Shi Sui frowned. "You were the one who proposed the bet first. Are you afraid of losing now?"

Jiang Tianyao was stunned. How could she possibly lose? She had already checked the answers, and this time she performed exceptionally well, and she might still be in the top 100 of the grade.

But she couldn't reveal her inner smugness.

Jiang Tianyao: "No, I just made the bet on impulse. I didn't consider your grades. I'm so sorry."

Stupid onlookers: Jiang Tianyao is so kind! She knew Shi Sui would lose, so she took the initiative to cancel the bet so as not to embarrass her. She even apologized. She's beautiful inside and out!

Shi Sui said coldly, "Jiang Tianyao, it wouldn't be difficult for you to disappear from my sight, would it? You hate me anyway."

Jiang Tianyao, on the verge of tears, said, "I don't hate you..."

Too lazy to watch her performance, Shi Sui said, "The rankings are about to be released. A bet is a bet. Do you think this is a joke? I don't agree to cancel it."

Jiang Tianyao had tears welling up in her eyes, but she felt a sense of relief.

She didn't want to cancel the bet either; she was still waiting for Shi Sui's apology.

Just then, someone shouted, "The rankings are out!"

The electronic screen on the clock tower lit up, displaying the names, scores in each subject, total scores, rankings, and new classes of all students in the second year of high school!

Jiang Tianyao instinctively went to check her ranking.

She quickly found her ranking by searching around the 100th position.

89! She actually ranked 89th! That's higher than expected! And she improved by more than 20 places from her last exam!

She won the bet! And she even made it into the top 100 in her grade! Her parents and brother will be so proud of her achievements!

Just as Jiang Tianyao was inwardly smug, she put on a comforting expression: "Shi Sui, even if you lost the bet, you don't need to apologize to me. I only hope you can apologize to your brother and Gu Chenyi—"

The surroundings suddenly became quiet.

Jiang Tianyao was stunned. She saw her classmates looking at her with complicated expressions.

Someone exclaimed in surprise: "Holy crap, Shi Sui actually ranked 7th in the grade!"

Jiang Tianyao felt as if something had exploded in her head. She slowly raised her head and looked at the top of the list.

Seventh place: Shi Sui.

"Really? Is the education level in the countryside that high? Didn't they say that her school used to have completely different textbooks than ours?"

"Who said she failed English! Step forward! Shi Sui got 141 in English! Second in the grade for a single subject!"

"Now I'm not only obsessed with looks, I'm also obsessed with academic excellence."

"Damn, I take back my previous assessment of her as naive and innocent. I had no idea she was so good at studying. I must be an idiot."

"..."

Song Xinying was a little confused. She had just said, "Even if your grades are bad, it won't affect your image in my heart."

Good heavens, Shi Sui's grades are not bad at all. She scored five points higher than her and ranked one place higher!

Love more.

Chi Yan was not surprised. He had always known how hard Shi Sui studied, and how much more effort she put into her studies than into him.

He looked at Shi Sui, expecting her to be overjoyed, but instead saw her tilting her head, lost in thought.

Shi Sui was celebrating with the system—oh no, I mean, asking for money.

Shi Sui: [System! I got 7th place! Quick! Money!]

System: [Timed Task 2 completed, ranked in the top ten of the class placement exam. Reward: Gu Chenyi Fund - 80, 80 credited to the host's account.]

Shi Sui: [Throwing confetti! Throwing confetti! Throwing confetti!]

System: [Hooray! Hooray! Hooray!]

The school also awards scholarships to the top 100 students in the grade, with the top 10 receiving 200,000 yuan.

In other words, Shi Sui now has 100 million!

Just as everyone was shocked by Shi Sui's results, and while he was negotiating money with the system, someone shouted.

"Shi Sui won the bet between Shi Sui and Jiang Tianyao!"

The system disappeared, and Shi Sui's thoughts returned to reality. She looked at Jiang Tianyao, who was standing opposite her, and asked, "Jiang Tianyao, I didn't hear you clearly. Did you just talk to me?"

The girl bit her lip, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she couldn't utter a single word.

Netizens helped her recall: "Jiang Tianyao just said that you lost the bet and that you and your brother have to apologize!"

Someone laughed: "I never expected Shi Sui to get such good grades. She really shot herself in the foot."

Jiang Tianyao lowered her head, unable to believe that Shi Sui could really rank 7th in the grade.

Did she get Shi Sui's old high school grades? How could she have gotten into 7th place in her grade in such a short time with such terrible grades?

Moreover, the educational levels are completely different; Xinghua's exam papers are very difficult!

Two words flashed through Jiang Tianyao's mind.

Cheating!

It must be cheating!

Jiang Tianyao had completely lost her composure. In a moment of impulsiveness, she grabbed Shi Sui's sleeve and blurted out her true feelings: "Cheating! You must have cheated!"

Shi Sui looked down at her sleeve that was being pulled.

Dirty!

Shi Sui's face immediately turned pale, and she coldly shook her hand away: "Don't touch me."

The world spun around her, and she lost her balance. Jiang Tianyao was caught off guard and thrown to the ground.

Falling to the ground may be a bit embarrassing, but it's a perfect opportunity to make a scene.

The girl knelt on the ground, slowly raised her head, and tears welled up in her helpless eyes: "Shi Sui, why are you so malicious towards me..."

The onlookers realized: Holy crap, how did Jiang Tianyao fall to the ground in the blink of an eye?

"I won the bet, so please honor your bet and don't show your face in front of me again." Shi Sui said coldly, patting the sleeve that Shi Sui had just touched. "If you're lying on the ground and don't want to move, then crawl away."

Jiang Tianyao looked at her classmates with a weak and innocent expression, instinctively wanting them to speak up for her, but—

"Hilarious! They actually suspect cheating? Xinghua is the strictest in cracking down on cheating."

"Shi Sui and I were in the same exam room. Our whole exam room was full of underachievers, oh no, now Shi Sui is an academic superstar."

"Who could she have copied from? A math score of 142 is something you can just copy!"

"..."

As the heat of the moment subsided, Jiang Tianyao suddenly realized how foolish her actions had been, but—

Jiang Tianyao's eyes were red and swollen, and she bit her lip as tears streamed down her face. She said, "It really was Shi Sui who pushed me to the ground..."

No one helped her up.

"Shi Sui looks so weak, where did she get the strength to push Jiang Tianyao to the ground?"

"Is Jiang Tianyao faking an accident? She was just standing there perfectly fine, and then Shi Sui just flicked her sleeve lightly, and she fell to the ground?"

"Wow, she's such a good actress! She's a total drama queen."

"She's a real gem; the more you dig, the more interesting she becomes."

"..."

"I'm the one who threw her to the ground." Shi Sui felt annoyed and looked down at her condescendingly. "Jiang Tianyao, you must keep your bet and never appear in front of me again. Please also tell your family and Gu Chenyi not to appear in front of me."

"I don't want to waste my study time on you lousy people anymore."

After saying that, Shi Sui looked up at the list to confirm her class, then turned and left.

The onlookers dispersed, looking down at their phones and posting on the forum.

Jiang Tianyao froze, when suddenly the name 'Gu Chenyi' entered her ears and she remembered it abruptly.

"Shi Sui, Gu Chenyi has disappeared. Did you have Chi Yan do it?"

She called out to Shi Sui's departing figure.

The onlookers who were leaving the scene stopped in unison and all looked over.
