For a whole week, the freshmen were busy with nothing but marking and taking tests, and all they talked about was the ranking of each subject in this exam. Someone’s Chinese grade ranked first in the year! Someone almost got a full score in Math! And so on and so forth! And Zhen Yu and Han Mingyue were among those being discussed! Because Zhen Yu’s English grade ranked first in the whole grade, and Han Mingyue was only a few points behind her. Han Mingyue’s essay was just one point shy of full marks, and Kang Jian, who is also in class two, was only two points behind him. And Lu Huai’s physics grade ranked first in the entire grade... But none of these were the most important! Because somehow, someone got a piece of news from somewhere and it spread quickly! "They say the prettiest girl in class ten, her grades are the absolute worst in the grade!!!" "Really? She’s so beautiful! Turns out she’s just a pretty face without brains!" "Pfft! So what if she’s pretty! It’s not like you can use that to take the college entrance exam!" "Who who? Is she as pretty as you say? I want to go see!" "I want to see too! Take me with you!" "Seriously! She really is beautiful! No matter how you look at her, she’s pleasing to the eyes!" "It seems God is fair after all! Gave her perfect looks, naturally she wouldn’t have a smart brain!" One classmate said! Two classmates talked! And as more people talked, the gossip about Bai Xue slowly spread throughout First High School. Bai Xue became famous among the students of Qi City No.1 High School almost overnight! Initially, only a small group of people found her beautiful and noticed her, but now she became a huge topic in the entire freshman year and even in the whole school because of her grades! "Look, look! That’s her!" "The girl sitting in the third row from the back by the window, that’s her!" Right after the first class in the afternoon, countless boys from other classes had once again gathered at the door of class ten to see Bai Xue. Bai Xue was arranging her desk and writing music scores, not minding the pointing and whispering at the doorway at all. Her female deskmate kindly reminded her, but Bai Xue, with an open-minded attitude, persuaded her: "Let them look! It’s not like I’ll lose a chunk of flesh! Besides, they can’t come in! They can’t see clearly from so far away!" She didn’t care, but Lu Huai who sat not too far behind her was furious! He had already endured the whole morning, and yet, for some reason, the two boys who came this time lingered for far too long! They kept whispering and even boldly leaned on the corridor wall by the door, waiting like hunting hounds! Seeing this, Lu Huai suddenly got up with a furious pace towards the door! Bai Xue heard the noise from the chair behind and glanced back at him, but didn’t think much of it. Until...suddenly, there were faint sounds of cursing and a clatter of collisions coming into the classroom of class ten. Her female deskmate tugged at Bai Xue’s arm and whispered closely: "It seems there’s a fight in the corridor! Could it be Lu Huai and those two boys who were looking at you?!" "What is Lu Huai thinking? Why would he fight with them?" Although she asked that, Bai Xue still stood up, pulling her deskmate along as they walked out: "Let’s go! Let’s go and see!" My desk-mate guessed right. When she and Bai Xue walked out of the classroom, Lu Huai and the two boys across from him were already bruised and were being held back by the students from Class 10, unable to get close to each other. "Fuck! What the hell is your relationship with her? You have to mind even what she looks at?!" As soon as Bai Xue stepped out of the classroom, one of the boys from another class suddenly pointed at her and yelled at Lu Huai. His words made Bai Xue, who had just turned toward Lu Huai, stop in her tracks and furrow her lovely eyebrows! What does he mean?! What the hell is Lu Huai up to?! How come this issue drag her in just after she stepped out for a bit? Lu Huai’s face flushed red! He glanced at Bai Xue guiltily before roaring back: "What the fuck do you care about my relationship! This is Class 10! Dare come here again and see if I won’t beat you up!" "Class 10 your MB! You guys are the bottom of the entire grade! Do you really think we give a damn about coming to your class! If it wasn’t for wanting to see what the ’Bottom School Beauty’ looked like..." Before he could finish his sentence, he had already successfully aroused the wrath of many! "How the fuck do you talk?!" "Fuck! Try saying that again!" "Who the fuck is at the bottom?! Lu Huai is the second top of the grade! Are you calling for Xue Song? If not, then hurry up and shut your beak!" "..." The boy who had been speaking did not expect that he was arguing with the second top of the grade, and his morale immediately shrank. Just as he was about to say a few superficial words to skedaddle, a loud roar entered his ears! "You bunch of punks! You had to start fighting in just this short break! All of you, come with me to the office!" An unexpectedly familiar voice made Bai Xue turn her head, and then she saw the over two hundred pounds Director Luan angrily shouting a sentence before turning around and walking away! Official source is novel•fire.net After the people holding them back had let go, the three boys honestly followed him. The final punishment was naturally a recorded offense, and they even had to go on stage during the big break and make an apology in front of all the teachers and students of the school! Having missed half a class, Lu Huai returned to the classroom and gave Bai Xue a resentful look. Bai Xue was confused! Yet, as soon as the class ended, Lu Huai approached Bai Xue asking her to help him write an apology! "I don’t know how to write any apology! Although my studies are poor, poor studying doesn’t require writing apologies! I’ve never written one! I don’t know how!" Bai Xue refused without any psychological burden. Lu Huai’s probing ended in a dismal failure. Sigh... forget it! He still had to figure out a way by himself! This Bai Xue guy... From here on, Lu Huai’s heart began to feel waves of powerlessness. He had spent so much time practicing guqin, erhu, and flute with her! Yet he hadn’t even made a dent in moving her! Instead, not only did he teach her the guitar, but she played it even better than him... Zhen Yu heard about this incident on the day the three were making their apology on stage. She neither inquired about the details nor commented on the incident. She just let Lu Huai and Bai Xue mess around as they liked. In her opinion, nothing that happens in the school is a big deal, not worth mentioning. However, after this incident, Bai Xue’s reputation in First High School became even more prominent! The title ’Bottom School Beauty’ inexplicably spread like wildfire.
