Principal Guo put down his teacup, thought for a while, and asked, “By the way, do you roughly know your score for the college entrance examination? What’s the situation? I can give you some advice.”
At this moment, Huang Xiangyu finally found an opportunity to enter with a tray. “Sheng Yang, I can help you too.”
Principal Guo looked at Huang Xiangyu and pondered for a moment. Although Huang Xiangyu was not reliable, she managed to get into a university. Not to mention among the girls in the village, even among the boys, she was considered pretty good. Therefore, he did not say anything when Huang Xiangyu volunteered.
Sheng Yang quietly stared at Principal Guo, her amber eyes as bright as glass. After a while, she said lightly, “I didn’t make any estimations on what my score would be.”
The corner of Huang Xiangyu’s mouth lifted. It was not that no students wouldn’t try to estimate their scores, but it was just very rare. Furthermore, in Sheng Yang’s case, it was all because her results were too poor. She was a good student but she could not pass the exam. Since she had already given up, what was there to estimate?
Principal Guo was silent. He and Huang Xiangyu had the same thoughts, but they were in disbelief.
If even the high schools in the town can’t match Yan City’s teaching standards, Sheng Yang would naturally fail the exam, right? She changed to a new environment and suffered a huge blow, so it was normal for her grades to plummet.
Sigh, what a pity… Principal Guo’s heart was heavy, but he didn’t show it in front of Sheng Yang. He just smiled. “All roads lead to Rome.”
“Yes.” Huang Xiangyu wanted to build a good relationship with Sheng Yang. She was still thinking about her brothers. “If there’s anything you don’t understand, ask me. I’ve gone through it before.”
Sheng Yuxi suddenly spoke up, sounding a little angry. “Do you think us brothers are just decorations?”
Why would she ask her and not her brothers?
Huang Xiangyu’s interaction with Sheng Yuxi yesterday was not like this, so she could not understand what Sheng Yuxi was doing. She did not know why he was suddenly angry, but she waved her hands frantically. “No, I didn’t mean that…”
“Take your food and leave,” Sheng Yuxi ordered.
Sheng Hanjing smiled. This time, his silly little brother could finally see through this girl.

Huang Xiangyu was chased out for no reason and felt wronged.
When she returned home, she told Zhao Lan about this matter. However, Zhao Lan did not comfort her. Instead, she was rather happy.
“Mom, I’m already so unwelcome. Why aren’t you feeling sorry for me?” Huang Xiangyu felt even more wronged.
“Why would I feel sorry for you? I’ve spoiled you too much. If it’s so easy to become a relative of a family like that, wouldn’t everyone be able to join the family?”
“Mom, you mean…”
Zhao Lan chuckled as she held her chin. “I think that her brother chased you out in such a fit of anger because your words hit Sheng Yang right in the heart. It’s fine that she didn’t do well in the exam, but how could you point it out so openly? You’re so naive. You didn’t even consider this.”
Huang Xiangyu pouted. “It’s a fact that she didn’t do well. They’ll have to face it sooner or later. Why can’t others say it?”
Zhao Lan could not help but poke Huang Xiangyu’s forehead, but she could not bear to use her strength.
“If Sheng Yang didn’t do well, she’d either stop studying, go work, be taken care of by her family, or retake her exam. But she’s not in a normal family. She has to go to university. A rich family like that cares about their reputation the most, and when she marries in the future, she needs to be compatible with the other party’s family. She hasn’t even attended university. What would happen if word got out? I think her parents would send her to retake the exam no matter what.. At least if she goes to high school again, she would at least get into a university.”
