Chapter 13
This was also an important reason for the constant death of the fake heiress. The female protagonist was destined to have everything. As a vicious female supporting character, even if she wanted to save her love, it was a great sin.
From then on, the fake heiress turned into a complete tragedy. Not only did she watch the boy she liked protect another girl, but she also became the target of ridicule in the entire school. Her image as the proud girl of the heavens was gone forever.
Thinking of this, He Jing frowned and glanced around the classroom quietly. Yan Hanxi was probably not there.
Initially, in order to be with Yan Hanxi, the fake heiress got admitted to Yin High School and chose the science stream. But from now on, it would not be the case anymore.
No matter how impressive Yan Hanxi was, she didn’t care.
In a daze, someone called out, “He Jing.”
He Jing looked at her and saw Cheng Yi stand up from her seat. She suppressed her nervousness and hostility and smiled magnanimously and forgiving. “I hope we can get along well in the future.”
If it were the fake heiress, she would probably have exploded. Just being deprived of her heiress status would have been good enough, yet Cheng Yi actually wanted to get along well. What a joke!
However, He Jing only nodded calmly and replied, “Okay.”
Then, she walked back to her seat.
Not only the students in the classroom but even Cheng Yi was stunned.
She took the initiative to lower her head and express her goodwill because her position in the Cheng family was still not stable. If things really got out of hand, she did not know which side her father, who was filled with guilt towards He Jing, would stand on. However, she did not expect He Jing to let it go so easily…
Cheng Yi thought, “How could this be… Didn’t He Jing desperately say that she wanted to stay with the Cheng family two days ago and chase me out?”
The classmates were even more surprised. He Jing was used to being arrogant and condescending in school. She looked down on everyone except Yan Hanxi. She didn’t put anyone in her eyes, but she could actually treat Cheng Yi so calmly. The sun really rose from the west.
But the situation was clear and obvious.
He Jing wiped her desk with a tissue as if no one was around. She took out her textbooks and began her pre-class preparation.
Cheng Yi glanced at her for a while, curled her fingers, and looked away unwillingly.
Now, she was the young heiress of the Cheng family. He Jing was worlds apart from her. She really didn’t need to pay too much attention to her, right?
However, the expression on Cheng Yue’s face when he mentioned He Jing, made Cheng Yi determined to study hard and become someone better than He Jing, completely replacing He Jing’s position in Cheng Yue’s heart.
Yan Hanxi didn’t show up even when class started. He Jing overheard the students whispering, “He skipped class again. I heard that Yan Hanxi had a fight with a third-year student from the neighboring First High School.”
“What’s the grudge between them?”
“Who knows? Anyway, the teacher doesn’t care. He always tops every exam, he’s a genius.”
…
He Jing lowered her eyes and looked cold.
She thought to herself, “First place? Not for long.”
The math class this time was about trigonometric functions. The teacher called a student to come up to the blackboard and solve a question. At a glance, the teacher saw Cheng Yi’s pretty face in the classroom and excitedly called out, “The student who just transferred over, come and do this question.”
Cheng Yi’s expression changed when she was called.
Her grades were not good. When she transferred, she did not pass the entrance test of Yin High School. She only got less than 60 points in many subjects. Among them, her math score was the worst, only getting a single digit.
The Cheng family donated three buildings and barely managed to get her into the school. When they asked her if she wanted to study humanities or sciences, she deliberately chose the science stream to compete with He Jing. She thought that she would be able to completely replace He Jing sooner or later, but she did not expect to fail in her first class.
