Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ye Youran and the other students in the class all thought that Ye Tianxin had been having fun while she was away from school. They did not know that Li Qingcang had been helping Ye Tianxin with her studies.

Ye Tianxin did not get much sun in the capital, so her skin was pale but smooth.

When she smiled, the phrase, “the face that launched a thousand ships,” flashed through Di Shanshi’s mind.

“I’m just afraid that someone will be a sore loser. Ye Youran, have you thought it through? If you lose, you have to go up the stage and dance during the flag-raising ceremony.”

Ye Youran had thought about this. Her grades had been stable during this period. How could she possibly lose?

If someone were to lose, it would be Ye Tianxin.

“I won’t lose!” Ye Youran replied confidently.

Ye Tianxin nodded and said, “So you think I’ll be the one who will lose?”

“Of course, it would be you, Ye Tianxin!”

“That’s right, Ye Tianxin. If I were you, I wouldn’t dare compete against Ye Youran. How embarrassing would it be if you lost?”

Ye Tianxin shrugged.

“Ye Youran, I did give you a chance. There’s no turning back now!”

“You’ll need all the luck that you can get,” Ye Youran hit back.

She had already lost once. She would not lose again. Not this time.

She was going to win.

She was going to win the dignity she had lost last time.

She was determined to let that illegitimate child, Ye Tianxin, know that she was never going to call her elder sister.

Everyone was quiet during class. Only the sounds of people writing could be heard.

They were already in their last semester of high school. Most of the students were doing practice questions and reviewing key points.

The teachers of various subjects would discuss questions that were likely to come out on the exams. The students hoped that they would be able to secure most of the marks by grasping the pattern of questions that came out on past exams.

After the end of the first class, Ye Tianxin asked Li Xiaohui to help her give out the lucky charms she had bought to the entire class.

Ye Tianxin went to the bathroom.

“You know, I heard my mother say that Ye Tianxin came back in a luxury car yesterday!”

“I think she might have sold herself in the capital! You all might not know this, but cancer is a terrible disease. You have to spend lots of money on the treatment. Where would Ye Tianxin get that money? She must have sold herself to an old man and got a great deal from him.”

“That’s impossible!” a girl remarked. “Ye Tianxin doesn’t look like someone who would do such a thing.”

“What do you mean she doesn’t look like someone who would do that? Have you forgotten that she’s the girl who started dating in middle school?”

Ye Tianxin felt like she would explode in anger when she heard that. When did she start to date in middle school?

“I read up on celebrity gossip using the computer at home. I heard that the actresses in the entertainment industry have to do certain things—unthinkable things, mind you—with producers and directors to get jobs.”

Ye Tianxin could not help it any longer. She knew she would hear even worse.

“Where did they get such information? They were lies. All lies!” Ye Tianxin thought.

She stood by the door and looked at them.

The students all stopped talking immediately.

“I have disappointed you all. I didn’t sell myself to an old man! He’s in fact a young, handsome man—the one that you’ve seen in the movies. Are you all going to be even more jealous of me?”

As she washed her hands, Ye Tianxin flicked the water on her hands into the faces of the students who had gathered to gossip.
