Zhao Xinlan had also noticed the big red crosses on Zhou Siyu’s notebook and couldn’t help feeling puzzled, "Siyu, yesterday’s questions weren’t hard, I knew how to do them all, how come you got every single one wrong?"
"It’s all because of Shen Mianmian." Zhou Siyu said through gritted teeth; no wonder Shen Mianmian had agreed so readily to help her with her homework yesterday—she had been waiting to trap her.
"What does this have to do with Shen Mianmian?"
"She wrote the homework for me."
Fuming with anger, Zhou Siyu’s hand which was writing the homework, wished she could puncture the notebook. The moment the bell rang for the end of class she couldn’t hold back anymore and went straight to confront Shen Mianmian.
"Sis, you did this on purpose, didn’t you?"
"What did I do on purpose?"
Shen Mianmian wore a look of complete bewilderment.
"You did it on purpose, got all my homework questions wrong." Zhou Siyu’s eyes nearly shot out flames; as a model student, she couldn’t admit to having someone else do her homework. She had to swallow her pride silently.
Shen Mianmian had guessed this and had set the trap on purpose.
She had indeed fallen for Shen Mianmian’s cunning plan.
"Siyu, I don’t like what you’re implying," Shen Mianmian said with an innocent face, "I’m just a poor student, so it’s very normal for me to get homework wrong, right? If I got every question right, would I still be a poor student?"
"Why is what you wrote for yourself correct?"
"Then why are mine different from yours?"
"If we both got the same answers wrong, wouldn’t the teacher realize you had me write the homework for you?"
She was so angry she felt like she would explode but couldn’t offer a retort.
After all that, it even seemed like she was doing her a favor.
"Zhou Siyu, you even let Shen Mianmian do your homework for you?" A classmate sitting in the row in front of Shen Mianmian could hardly keep from covering her mouth and snickering.
Although Shen Mianmian had scored well in the final exams last semester and even received an award for most improved, her past as a poor student was not completely forgotten by everyone.
Besides, Zhou Siyu’s grades were better than Shen Mianmian’s, yet she let someone inferior assist her with homework; it was obviously an attempt to slack off!
Only now did Zhou Siyu become aware of everyone’s gaze, and her face turned red immediately. She had inadvertently blurted out that she had let Shen Mianmian do her homework.
Coming to her senses, she quickly explained, "I, I was feeling unwell yesterday, so that’s why I let her help me with my homework."
Since it wasn’t their business, and with Shen Mianmian having the protection of Lu Siyuan, naturally, no one spoke up for Zhou Siyu; everyone seemed to be watching the spectacle, not engaging in the conversation.
Zhou Siyu felt incredibly embarrassed, glared at Shen Mianmian, then sheepishly returned to her seat and slumped onto the desk in frustration.
Upon careful reflection of recent events, she suddenly realized that she was being emotionally manipulated by Shen Mianmian, led by the nose.
She had been frequently overpowered by Shen Mianmian, thrown off balance, and consequently suffered multiple losses.
This couldn’t go on; if Shen Mianmian kept improving and really got into high school, her godfather would definitely not care about her anymore. Google seaʀᴄh 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝓷𝓮𝓽
Even if he grudgingly provided for her, supporting two college students wasn’t the same as one, and her living conditions would deteriorate dramatically.
City folks were all so wealthy; if she went to study in the city without money and still looked unsophisticated, she would be ostracized and despised by others.
At this thought, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in her eyes.
This time, it all depended on Xu Haiyang.
If Xu Haiyang was bold enough, then Shen Mianmian would lose any chance of turning things around.
