Chapter 39: Declaring War on All Grade 12 Students
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The news of Xu Yanqing and Chu Luo’s match quickly spread throughout the entire batch of Grade 12 students.
A single stone caused a thousand ripples.
Only then did everyone realize that the bottom-of-the-level? cowardly? ugly-freak? girl-who-wanted to-jump-off-the-building-after-a-failed-confession-to-the-school-hunk? Chu Luo had already grown into an increasingly beautiful? star student? fierce girl? who’s not to be trifled with.
Everyone: “!!!”
Everyone thought that they had entered a fantasy world!
Time flew.
The countdown for the college entrance examination was getting shorter and shorter, and the atmosphere of the entire Grade 12 level became even more tense.
Everyone worked hard to memorize and write during and outside of class.
Ten days before the college entrance examination, the school organized an assembly for the Grade 12 students.
First, it was the principal, then the vice-principal, then the dean. All of them went on stage and gave a long speech of encouragement, followed by the student representative.
The student representative was the student who won first place in the monthly exam.
After a spirited speech, the entire level was supposed to take the oath.
At this moment, the dean walked to the podium and said, “Today, we would like to invite another student representative to say a few words.”
After speaking, he waved his hand in a certain direction amid the discussion below the stage. “Chu Luo, come up and say a few words of encouragement.” f(r)eewebnovel.com
Everyone looked at Chu Luo.
The girl standing there had a pair of big eyes that seemed to be filled with stars. Her eyebrows were curved and her long eyelashes were slightly trembling. Her fair and flawless skin was faintly pink under the sunlight. At this moment, she had tied her long hair into a high ponytail, looking both beautiful and energetic.
Everyone was in a daze. When did the rumored ugly freak Chu Luo become so good-looking?
Chu Luo didn’t mind the crowd’s scrutiny. She walked up to the podium and swept her calm gaze below the stage. Everyone subconsciously held their breaths.
She lifted her chin slightly and said in a confident and calm tone, “I have two goals for the college entrance examination. One, get into the best university in the empire. Two, defeat all the candidates and get first place.”
Whoosh!
The entire Grade 12 level exploded.
“Chu Luo actually dares to be so arrogant!”
“Is Chu Luo declaring war on all the Grade 12 students?”
“The gall of her to make such boastful claims! She only scored a high score once after being taken special care of by the teachers, and already she’s so full of herself.”
“There are so many high schools in the empire. Does she think she can beat hundreds of thousands of candidates?”
“Dream on!”
“Ha! I want to see how Chu Luo will be slapped in the face after the college entrance examination.”
“With those words of hers, I’ve decided to work harder. Who knows, my results might surpass hers. When the time comes, I’ll see how she can fulfill what she said today.”
…
At first, the school’s heads were worried that Chu Luo’s words would get her beaten up.
Then…
The school’s heads and Grade 12 teachers were shocked to discover that this year’s Grade 12 students seemed to have been injected with hormones and were really charging forward without any regard for their lives.
The Grade 12 students didn’t have to attend school in the three days leading up to the college entrance examination.
Old Gao stood on the podium and gave reminders to everyone worriedly for a while. In the end, he even said, “The examination venue is at No.1 Middle School. I request everyone to report to school on the 5th at noon. I will give everyone their admission tickets then. The school will also take you around the examination venue to help you guys get familiarized with it.”
With that, he waved his hand. “School is dismissed.”
Upon hearing this, everyone began to pack their books.
Chu Luo planned to take most of the books with her and put them into her bag one by one.
“Chu Luo, what are your plans for the next two and a half days?”
Li Tao and He Jiang walked over at the same time and stood in front of her.
Chu Luo didn’t even look up. “Go home.”
Chu Zhengyang had called her yesterday and told her that Wei Wei and Chu Ting were coming back today. He told her to go back after school today.
He Jiang thickened his skin and said, “Then are you still going to revise for the next few days? How about we come and revise with you?”
“I don’t have time.”
Chu Luo packed her things and left.
Looking at the departing back, He Jiang nudged Li Tao with his elbow. “Say, Chu Luo is so cold. Is it because of Zhang Tianyi… Eh, Li Tao, why did you leave too?”
Li Tao said as he walked, “If you have the time to gossip about such groundless things, you might as well do two more math questions.”
He Jiang: “…”
…
When Chu Luo walked out of the school, the chauffeur was already waiting there.
In the car, she said to the chauffeur, “Take me to my place first.”
When the car arrived at the Chu residence, Wei Wei and Chu Ting weren’t back yet.
On the other hand, Chu Zhengyang arrived back at the villa right after Chu Luo did.
Chu Zhengyang was obviously in a good mood today. Seeing that Chu Luo had returned, he said to her, “Luoluo, I’ll go up and wash up first. Your mom and sis should be home in half an hour.”
Chu Luo nodded at him and returned to her bedroom.
Not long after, she could hear someone slamming on the door.
Chu Luo walked over slowly and opened the door. Indeed, Chu Ting was standing outside with a dissatisfied expression.
“Chu Luo, I’ve been knocking on the door for so long. Are you deaf? It took you half a day to come…”
“Say what you have to say then leave,” Chu Luo interrupted her.
“You…” Chu Ting originally wanted to flare up, but when she thought about how she had suffered a loss previously, she retracted her anger and said in a benevolent tone, “Daddy told me to call you down for dinner.”
With that, she turned around and left. She wouldn’t enter Chu Luo’s room even if she was beaten to death.
Chu Luo looked at the departing figure and turned around to wash her hands before going downstairs.
The three of them were already seated at the dining table, chatting merrily.
When Chu Luo came down, Chu Ting intentionally hugged Chu Zhengyang’s arm and said in a wheedling tone, “Daddy, the gold medal teachers in the capital said that I would definitely be able to get into Imperial University. How will you reward me when I get into Imperial U?”
“Haha… What reward do you want?”
“Why don’t you buy me a Maserati, Daddy? I want to have my own car.”
“Sure, sure, sure. I’ll buy it for you after you finish your exams.”
Wei Wei smiled at the father-and-daughter duo.
After Chu Luo walked over, Chu Zhengyang casually asked, “What reward does Luoluo want?”
Before Chu Luo could speak, Wei Wei said with a grim face, “With her results, what reward do you want to give her?”
Chu Luo walked over and sat down. With a calm expression, she said, “I heard from the teacher that in our school, students who get into Imperial University will receive a huge reward. A student who gets first place in the city and country respectively will also be given an award. At the same time, Imperial University will also give a reward. These rewards are enough for me.”
“Pfft! Chu Luo, are you still dreaming?!” Chu Ting said with disdain. “Do you think you are possessed by the Goddess of Studying? You even dream of getting first place in the country! You should thank your lucky stars if you can get into any university at all.”
Chu Zhengyang looked at Chu Luo with a complicated gaze. He wondered if this child had been under too much pressure in her studies recently and had developed the delusion that her results were unparalleled. He said, “It’s good to have dreams, but don’t force yourself.”
Wei Wei said with a straight face, “Since you have such great ambitions, stay at home for the next few days and study well. If you can get into Imperial University, I’ll buy you a Maserati too.”
Chu Luo gazed at Wei Wei with her big black eyes and nodded at her seriously. “Okay.”
Wei Wei: “…”
