The Year Head looked up at the students and said gently, Meng Jinyang, Shen Huan, we owe you an apology for today. We should not have suspected you of cheating and we hope that you wont be affected by this and continue to get excellent grades on your exams.

Just then, the door to the meeting room was pushed open.

The moment Lu Yang entered, he said in an eccentric tone, Why does giving an apology need to be policed so strictly? How interesting. Is Class One the only class capable of producing good students? If someone outside of Class One does well does that automatically mean they cheated?

Luo Songhuas aging face flooded with anger instantly and she glared at Lu Yang.

Behind him, Chu Yao and Fatty tried to control their mirth.

The Year Head was silenced by Lu Yangs speech as well.

Lu Yang suddenly acted as though he had hit upon a realization. Ms. Luo, I heard from other teachers that Meng Jinyang was supposed to go to Class One at first, but you didnt want to take her because you were disdainful of her education. How does it feel like to be slapped in the face now?

Luo Songhuas chest heaved violently and her eyes looked like they were going to burst into flames.

Gu Mangs hands were in her pockets as she stood with her head cocked to the side. There seemed to be a wicked smile playing at the corner of her lips.

Xi Yan looked at Luo Songhua. Ms. Luo, even the Year Head has already apologized. What about you?

Thats right, Ms. Luo. Who was the one who said that she would apologize to Gu Mang if someone from Class Twenty scored better than the last place student in Class One? It seems like you did. Lu Yang smiled. My apologies, weve even surpassed the top student in Class One.

Lu Yang! Unable to withstand this anymore, Luo Songhua stood up suddenly and slammed her hands on the table. Shut up!

Lu Yang laughed and shouted in a louder voice, Apologize!

If it were not for Chu Yaos girlfriend in Year One who told them about it, they wouldnt have known that this old witch was trying to slander Class Twenty!

Luo Songhua breathed heavily as she dug her nails into the meeting table.

Ms. Luo. The quiet and gentle Meng Jinyang spoke out suddenly. She looked at Luo Songhua with her pure, bright eyes, and said clearly, enunciating every word, The rumors originated from Class One. They sounded very ugly and even slandered Gu Mangs reputation. I dont believe that youre unaware that you were the one who initiated this bet. Now that Class Twenty has won, I hope youll be willing to accept defeat.

There was a staunchness in the girls eyes. It was as though this was the first time she was trying to protect someone and her fists were curled tightly like a hawk chick.

Upon hearing this, Gu Mangs eyebrows rose and a smile appeared in her eyes.

It seemed like letting her come to school was the right choice. She had now learned how to embarrass someone.

Luo Songhua glared at them, gritted her teeth, and said stiffly, Gu Mang, Im sorry.

With that said, she rushed out of the meeting room quickly with displeasure on her face.

When she passed by Gu Mang and the rest, she scowled daggers at them.

Lu Yang scoffed and rolled his eyes. Lets go and get some food, Gu Mang.

They walked out of the meeting room.

Gu Mang wrapped her arm around Xi Yan in a buddy-like way and said softly, Thank you, Little Xi. You must have suffered a lot of criticism before we arrived.

Xi Yan had been the subject of much eye-rolling and ridicule by being the form teacher for Class Twenty.

In the past, she merely grinned and bore it, slowly getting used to it.

Gu Mangs words made Xi Yans eyes redden instantly. She said, Then youre not allowed to get zeros for the next Chemistry test. Pay attention in class and do your homework.

Gu Mang raised her eyebrows and agreed readily. Sure.
