Chapter 104: Chapter 104: Is it you?
“Did you offend her?” Even Xu Siyan noticed something was off now.
“I don’t think so! Does being late in the morning count?” Shen Zhaozhao thought carefully, although they were in the same Olympic Mathematics group, they were in different grades and usually had no interaction outside of class.
Previously, that person’s attitude towards her had been fine—except, this time, it seemed like a clear targeted attack.
Xu Siyan looked up at the direction of the girls, couldn’t make out anything, and then turned his gaze back, saying, “Let’s go, let’s prepare for the exam!”
Elsewhere, Xie Miao walked while pulling out her phone to send a message: “I just taught her a lesson for you, but she was lucky, it only made her lose face a little.”
Soon, a reply came from the other side of the phone: “Thanks, cousin!”
After Lin Na finished replying to the message, she couldn’t help but curl up a smug smile.
She and Xie Miao were cousins. Some time ago, accidentally seeing a photo of the Olympic Mathematics group on Xie Miao’s phone, she had asked her cousin to find an opportunity to teach Shen Zhaozhao a lesson.
As asked by her cousin, Xie Miao originally intended to make Shen Zhaozhao fall and embarrass herself in public, but fortunately for her target, it hadn’t worked out.
The preliminary competition lasted for one hour.
After leaving the examination hall, Shen Zhaozhao went to the restroom.
But as she was about to leave, she discovered that the restroom door was locked from the outside.
“Is anyone there? Is there anybody?” She banged on the door for a long time, but no one responded.
In the end, she had to climb over the water tank of the squat toilet to get out.
She noticed a “Closed for cleaning” sign had been placed at the entrance, though it had not been there when she arrived, and she hadn’t seen any cleaning staff either; clearly, it was someone’s doing.
By the time Shen Zhaozhao had come out of the restroom and found the gathering vehicle, everyone else had already arrived—she was the last one.
“Some people just love to make a spectacle of themselves, always needing to appear last, as if they’re so important,” Xie Miao mocked coldly as soon as she got on the bus.
“Was it you?” Shen Zhaozhao decided not to endure it this time, walking straight up to her to confront her loudly.
This person had been targeting her since she boarded the bus, and she couldn’t think of anyone else responsible for this incident.
The latter’s eyes flickered for a moment, and then she denied aloud, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand!”
Shen Zhaozhao grabbed her by the collar and said, “Xie Miao, I don’t care if you truly don’t understand or are pretending not to. I’m warning you, I lose my temper easily. If there’s a next time, I won’t let you off.”
Everyone else was shocked by Shen Zhaozhao’s sudden confrontation.
Xie Miao was shocked too.
She had only dared to pull some behind-the-scenes maneuvers, never expecting her opponent to openly threaten her.
Just about to say something, she suddenly caught sight of a figure at the door, her eyes suddenly welling up with tears, and with a weak and aggrieved sob, she said, “Shen Zhaozhao, are you misunderstanding something? I didn’t do anything; please don’t hit me…”
Shen Zhaozhao was stunned.
Since when was she going to hit her?
The next second, she heard a stern rebuke from behind her, “Shen Zhaozhao, what are you doing? Daring to bully a classmate in front of a teacher, now release your hand immediately.”
Shen Zhaozhao turned around, startled.
She opened her mouth, instinctively trying to explain, but was interrupted, “I will definitely report this to your class teacher exactly as it happened. So young and already so violent, wanting to physically harm a classmate, your parents must be called to the school.”
