Chapter 739: Enemies on a Narrow Road
Though not explicitly stated, he could tell that Ye Leng’an was intending to refuse. This was somewhat unexpected, as it was not a significant matter. Zheng Anyang didn’t anticipate Ye Leng’an being unwilling.
“I don’t have a preference.” Ye Leng’an looked at Zheng Anyang and continued, “However, Principal, are you sure you want me to share experiences? I’m afraid of leading these graduating students astray!”
“How could that be?” Seeing a chance, Zheng Anyang quickly tried to persuade, “You…”
As if he remembered something, his voice abruptly stopped. He recalled that Ye Leng’an often took leaves and barely attended school for days in a semester. It wasn’t appropriate to impart such experiences. Teaching those kids poorly would not be good.
Realizing this, an awkward smile appeared on Zheng Anyang’s face.
Seeing that Zheng Anyang seemed to understand, Ye Leng’an smiled slightly and continued, “So, Principal, do you still want me to give a speech?”
“It’s actually fine.” Zheng Anyang thought for a moment and replied, “You don’t need to share specific experiences. Just encourage them. Based on your achievements, it will be a great motivation for them.”
Hearing that, Ye Leng’an raised an eyebrow and shrugged. She didn’t seem to mind. “If you think so, I have no objections.”
It was just saying a few words on stage; she didn’t object.
“Really? That’s great.” After getting her confirmation, Zheng Anyang was pleased. “I’ll make the arrangements right away. When it’s time, we can discuss it again.”
Ye Leng’an, this year’s college entrance exam top scorer, was the school’s pride. Using her example might motivate the graduating students. Perhaps, next year, the school could achieve another peak.
Ye Leng’an nodded. Picking up her graduation certificate, she waved at Zheng Anyang. “Principal, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave. Notify me when the speech time is confirmed!”
“Alright.” Zheng Anyang nodded. Then, he thought of something and said immediately, “Be careful, don’t turn off your phone again!”
“Got it.”
With that, Ye Leng’an took her graduation certificate and left the principal’s office.
Walking through the school grounds, Ye Leng’an felt a bit awkward. Many places had red banners with large words, “Congratulations to Ye Leng’an for achieving the honor of being the top scorer in the college entrance examination!”
She understood the principal’s excitement, but seeing her name everywhere felt strange.
Quickening her pace, just before reaching the main entrance, she saw a familiar face. It was Ye Xiyuan.
Encountering Ye Xiyuan here was unexpected.
This could be considered a narrow road for enemies!
Ye Xiyuan noticed Ye Leng’an too. She hesitated for a moment, and then her face instantly darkened.
Her college entrance exam results this time were disastrous. She could feel everyone around her laughing at her.
Originally just a first-year student, she ignored the opposition and directly entered the third year. She did this to achieve good results in the college entrance exam, making everyone take her seriously.
However, unexpectedly, the exam questions were entirely different from what she remembered. Consequently, her results were abysmal.
After the results were out, she received disdainful looks from everyone. Even though she was mentally prepared, facing it in person was tough.
Especially her family’s changed attitude. Even her usually affectionate mother became cold after the results were released.
What frustrated and angered her the most was that, while she got terrible results, Ye Leng’an became the top scorer with a perfect score.
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s name everywhere on campus, she wished she could tear down and burn all the banners.
In her past life, she was suppressed by Ye Leng’an into the dust. Even with a second chance, she was still going to lose to Ye Leng’an. What was the point of her rebirth?
Even in adversity, she was determined to forge a path to prosperity. She wouldn’t repeat the mistakes of her previous life; she wanted to live better than anyone.
Now, seeing Ye Leng’an again, she only wanted to scratch her face, or even kill her.
Unlike Ye Xiyuan’s emotional turmoil, Ye Leng’an remained calm. She slowly averted her gaze, treating Ye Xiyuan as a stranger. Without a second glance, she continued walking.
Not wanting to be ignored, Ye Xiyuan didn’t intend to let her off.
As they passed each other, Ye Xiyuan suddenly said, “Ye Leng’an, you must be very pleased with yourself!”
Ignoring her, Ye Leng’an didn’t stop. Completely unfazed, she continued walking, disregarding Ye Xiyuan.
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s indifference, Ye Xiyuan felt ignored. An inexplicable anger surged in her. She quickly stepped forward and blocked Ye Leng’an’s path. “Ye Leng’an, are you deaf? Didn’t you hear me talking to you?”
“So?” Ye Leng’an stopped, looking coldly at Ye Xiyuan. “Who do you think you are? Why should I respond just because you called me?”
These words further infuriated Ye Xiyuan. “Ye Leng’an, don’t be so arrogant. You’re just the top scorer of this year’s college entrance exam. What’s the big deal?”
“I’m not a big deal.” Ye Leng’an nodded in agreement. “However, it’s still much better than your disastrous college entrance exam results. If you don’t have the ability, don’t take the exam. You’re just a joke.”
