They actually thought that He Jing had been put in a difficult position. They were too naive!
In the future, even if someone said that He Jing had an extra organ, they would believe it without a doubt. Even if someone said that she had transmigrated from the future, they would only say, “Wow.”
Meanwhile, the smiles of the Year Three students who had surrounded Xu Bi and mocked He Jing had all frozen on their faces. One of them was the first to react. “Senior Xu Bi, it seems like He Jing is subtly criticizing you.”
Xu Bi thought, “What did she mean by character was more important than studies? She was honored to be standing on stage? Doesn’t that imply that those who didn’t get on the stage have character issues?”
Then, she listened to the second half of her sentence.
“I don’t have many learning methods. It can only be said that hard work is the only shortcut. People with bad minds will eventually fall behind others.” She clearly emphasized the word ‘bad minds’ without batting an eyelid.
There was no doubt that He Jing was openly insulting them!
Xu Bi, who was wearing a miniskirt, threw the half-sucked lollipop on the ground in anger.
“This He Jing!”
“Senior Xu Bi, calm down. We’ll settle the score with her later!”
As He Jing’s long speech was full of cadence, time ticked by. As the required ten minutes for the speech quietly elapsed, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
The foreign education expert stood in the last row and spoke in a clumsy Chinese accent, “I didn’t expect that there would be such an outstanding student in your school. Her English is very good. It’s just like us…”
The school leader who was accompanying him felt his face glowing with pride.
He felt refreshed like a spring breeze. He said humbly and politely, “Mr. Williams, you must be joking. This is just an ordinary student of our Yin High School…”
The foreign education expert immediately gave him a thumbs up. “Your students are impressive.”
The school leader extended his hand and said, “Mr. Williams, let’s go somewhere else.”
The vice-principal followed behind the two of them. He was keen-sighted and promptly suggested increasing scholarships. He Jing was such an outstanding student. He definitely couldn’t let her drop out of school because of poverty.
When the flag-raising ceremony ended and the broadcast music started, all the students awakened from their dreams and realized what an outstanding speech they had heard.
If someone recorded this and posted it online, it would surely go viral.
Shen Qiuyu rushed onto the stage and hugged He Jing’s arm. “Sister Jing, you’re awesome!”
He Jing smiled faintly. “Really?”
Shen Qiuyu nodded her head like a chicken pecking at rice. Without much thought, she said, “Sister Jing, you’re so bold. You actually openly mocked Xu Bi on stage. Those of us in Senior Two Class Three who understood it all laughed. I bet Xu Bi didn’t even understand.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a bright sneer sounded from the side. “Heh, looks like someone thinks I, Xu Bi, am retarded?!”
Turning around, she saw Xu Bi leading a group of supporters over. Her beautiful eyes were extremely cold, and there was a vicious aura surrounding her brows. This posture clearly showed that she wanted to settle scores, and it was the kind that wouldn’t stop until blood was shed.
Shen Qiuyu didn’t expect Xu Bi to hear what she said. To think that she still had the face to come over and play dirty behind her back, bullying the weak just because she was a year older.
She retorted, “We only treated you as a retard, but you treated Sister Jing as a pushover. We’re the same.”
He Jing looked straight at Xu Bi and said indifferently, “I’ve never been one to hold grudges. If there’s a problem, I prefer addressing it on the spot.”
Xu Bi sneered, “You sure have a tough mouth. You’re not afraid of trouble.”
“Oh.” A languid and magnetic voice that sounded like the sound of a zither suddenly cut in. It carried an imperceptible coldness. “What kind of trouble are we talking about? Let me experience it too..”
