"What did you say? The top middle school student in the whole city went to No. 3 Middle School?" Zhou Siyu’s face changed instantly, no wonder her uncle and aunt had been guarding at No. 1 Middle School for so long, and they hadn’t managed to catch Shen Mianmian. They thought she’d been kidnapped and were smug about it for quite some time; unexpectedly, Shen Mianmian had run off to No. 3 Middle School instead.
That damn girl, she must have gone to No. 3 Middle School just to avoid them. How cunning.
"You didn’t know about such a big thing?" Gu Jianbin found it a bit strange. The top student of the whole city went to No. 3 Middle School; most people knew about it, right?
"I didn’t know." Zhou Siyu shook her head, and her expression gradually eased, "Right at the start of the school term, I was too busy getting used to the new environment."
If they had known Shen Mianmian was at No. 3 Middle School, her uncle and aunt would have captured Shen Mianmian long ago and taken back the money she took away; Zhou Siyu would not know how good her life could be.
"You’re also a student from Li Town Middle School, right?" Zhuo Feng asked with curiosity, "Have you seen that top student of the city?"
He had heard that the person who scored first place in the whole city was a girl whose name seemed to contain the character Mian, but he couldn’t remember the specifics.
"..." Zhou Siyu pursed her lips and said evasively, "I’ve seen her once, just an ordinary little girl, thin and short, nothing remarkable about her."
Zhuo Feng was a little disappointed and his curiosity immediately halved. After all, he thought, a girl who excels in studies must be focusing all her energy on academics, so appearance probably wasn’t her concern.
Yet Gu Jianbin still really wanted to take a look at No. 3 Middle School, "What time are you going on Saturday? If it’s convenient, let’s go together?"
"This..." Zhou Siyu appeared somewhat troubled, "Tian Caiyan originally said she wanted just me to accompany her. If I bring you guys along, I’m afraid she might object." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝕟𝕖𝕥
Shen Mianmian now looked like a vixen, had money to her name, and excelled at her studies. Subconsciously, Zhou Siyu feared that if the two met, Gu Jianbin would fall for Shen Mianmian.
It took her more than a month to get this familiar with Gu Jianbin; she could not let Shen Mianmian ruin everything.
"That’s okay, Zhuo Feng and I can go by ourselves just the same. I was thinking it would be convenient if we were headed the same way." Once he had the idea to visit, Gu Jianbin became even more curious about No. 3 Middle School.
Speaking of which, the number of No. 3 Middle School’s students who made it to university every year wasn’t less than that of No. 2 Middle School; it’s just that No. 2 Middle School had a higher entrance scoreline. Subconsciously, everyone felt No. 2 Middle School was better than No. 3 Middle School. If asked what exactly was better, he couldn’t quite articulate it either. Might as well take this opportunity to satisfy his curiosity.
The next time someone compared No. 2 and No. 3 Middle Schools, he could also chip in a few words.
Only, without going with Zhou Siyu, even if they brushed past the top student of the city, they probably wouldn’t recognize each other.
Zhou Siyu’s gaze flickered, and she quickly changed her mind, "Let’s all go together!"
Unable to stop him, she might as well join; that way, she could also control how events unfolded and keep them away from Shen Mianmian as much as possible.
"Didn’t you say that Tian Caiyan only asked for you?" Gu Jianbin asked.
"I’ll just talk to her about it."
Zhou Siyu said nonchalantly, as if it were really not a big issue.
Lu Siyuan didn’t suspect anything and they made a plan to meet at seven o’clock on Saturday morning at the school gate.
Boarding students generally leave for home between eight and nine on Saturday mornings, so if they met at seven, they’d arrive at No. 3 Middle School by eight, and might just run into the person who was helping Tian Caiyan.
Even if they didn’t meet, it wouldn’t affect him at all; after all, his original intent was to check out No. 3 Middle School and the city’s top middle school student.
