  Headmaster Ma responded firmly. “I did not read wrongly. This is precisely what is written here. Student Fang Manxue, you do have a ranking. You are ranked fourth in the entire school this time. You did very well. Please keep up the good work.”

  “Who wants to be in fourth place? What I want is the first place! I want to perform better than Fang Xinxin, I want her to lose!” Fang Manxue shrieked.

  Her expression was somewhat crazy as though she had lost her mind.

  The cameramen in the hallway were recording all of this. One of the reporters on the side urged his associate. “Capture Fang Manxue’s expression. We’ll show the audience that she lost her rationality after suffering from the shock.”

  \r \r \r

  Fang Manxue clearly heard these words. She glared at them in anger. “I didn’t ask you here to take footage of my humiliation. You’re not allowed to record anymore!”

  The reporter had not received Fang Manxue’s money. She responded seriously. “I was invited here to collect material for my news report. I am only recording the truth. Miss Fang Manxue, there’s no need for you to be upset.”

  Fang Manxue was stifled with anger.

  She turned to Ma Yongting in defiance. “Headmaster Ma, the entire school knows that Fang Xinxin is terrible at studying. How could she have gotten first place? Could it be that even the school is trying to protect Fang Xinxin? Did you guys help her out with her grades?”

  Although all the students had similar thoughts, this matter was unrelated to them and they did not wish to lose their face with the cameras recording.

  Ma Yongting’s expression turned heavy.

  He criticised her sternly. “Student Fang Manxue, I understand that you are struggling to accept this. However, you cannot smear our school’s reputation. For the examination this time, everyone’s seats were at a proper distance. Moreover, the entire examination process was recorded. Even the names on the papers were covered. The teachers were also recorded while marking the papers. They fairly gave every student their grades before taking off the tape to see the student’s name. Jing Hua University would never help a student to cheat. I was also surprised to see that Fang Xinxin has achieved first place. For this matter, I even checked the surveillance cameras records of the event. I saw that throughout the entire process, her eyes never left her paper. She also submitted her work the moment she was done.”

  “Couldn’t you guys have leaked the questions beforehand?” Fang Manxue demanded.

  Ma Yongting reprimanded her in anger. “That’s even less possible. The questions were written right before the examinations and the teachers were also filmed as they did so. The moment the papers were printed, they were immediately sealed and sent to the venue. There wasn’t any time to leak the questions even if we wanted to. Due to the attention we received from the public, the school took this matter very seriously. Fang Manxue, if you still have doubts, we will allow you to check the surveillance cameras records.”

  Fang Manxue’s complexion alternated between turning green and pale. She could not accept this result at all.

  Fang Xinxin finally spoke up. “Manxue, I know that you have difficulty accepting this. The truth is, even before I made this agreement with you, I had been working very hard to improve my performance. I did this for the sake of becoming a better student. Even though my grades were very poor in the past, that doesn’t mean I cannot improve. Similarly, though your grades were very good, it doesn’t mean you won’t fall behind. You’ve been so focused on outperforming me that your intentions turned inappropriate. You say, isn’t it only right that you lost?”

  She would never admit that she knew all the questions based on her memories from her past life.

  “That’s right.” Sun Jiamu also mocked her. “Fang Manxue’s thoughts are inappropriate. She hasn’t only been thinking of outperforming Fang Xinxin. She even ran off to sleep with other men outside. Her life is so exciting. How could she have spent any time studying?”

  “Indeed. It would be weird if a slut like her did not lose,” Jiang Xingnan responded.

  Suddenly, all students felt that this logic actually made sense.
