Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Standing by the door was Chu Ting.

As the school belle of Ocean City’s elite high school, in everyone’s eyes, Chu Ting was simply a goddess with good looks and IQ.

However, at this moment, the goddess of everyone’s eyes was standing there with a pair of dark eye circles that couldn’t be covered with concealer, along with a face that was covered with a thick layer of powder, looking pale and distorted from anger.

“What’s wrong with the school belle?”

“Did Chu Luo do something wrong to the school belle?”

“This seems to be the school belle’s first time coming to our class to look for Chu Luo.”

Everyone subconsciously turned to look at Chu Luo.

They then realized that Chu Luo was looking out of the window with her earphones on.

“…”

Chu Ting also noticed this and immediately walked in.

When she was about to reach Chu Luo’s desk, Chu Luo suddenly turned around.

Looking at the approaching Chu Ting, Chu Luo’s lips curled into a smile as she removed one of her earphones and asked calmly, “Why are you looking for me?”

Chu Ting really wanted to ask her where that middle-aged man went, but faced with everyone’s gazes, she held it in and said arrogantly, “Come out for a while, I have something to ask you.”

Chu Luo stared at Chu Ting and sneered.

“I’m not free.”

“You…”

“I what?”

A vicious glint flashed across Chu Luo’s eyes.

Chu Ting was so frightened that she took a small step back. However, thinking about how she had a backing now, she leaned forward and threatened softly, “If you don’t come out, I will report you to Mom and tell her that you and that middle-aged man cast Gu poison on me. If I have to suffer, I’ll make sure you suffer with me.”

Chu Luo narrowed her eyes, a dangerous glow shooting out from them.

Since things had already gotten to this state, Chu Ting went all in and continued to threaten, “Care to bet whether just one word from me would leave you unable to study anymore?

“Yesterday, I heard from my uncles that they wanted to send a girl out for a marriage alliance. None of our cousins are willing. I heard that the person they wanted to marry the girl off to is an old man with a queer and violent temper.

“Say, if I tell them that you want a marriage alliance, do you think Uncle and the rest agree?”

Chu Luo looked at Chu Ting, who was getting more and more pleased with herself as she spoke. She still had that calm expression on her face, and her fingers were casually playing with her earpiece.

When she saw that Chu Luo wasn’t scared at all, Chu Ting’s expression turned vicious. “Chu Luo, do you think that I am lying to you? If you don’t believe me, you can pack your things and scram back later.”

After saying that, she was about to leave.

“Wait.”

Chu Luo suddenly called out to Chu Ting, who was trembling with anger but still pretending to be strong.

Seeing Chu Ting stop, Chu Luo stood up and walked towards her.

At this moment, everyone in the class fell silent, waiting to see what the two sisters were going to do.

After all, everyone knew that Chu Ting and Chu Luo weren’t on good terms. Not only was Chu Ting’s results excellent, but she was also the school belle. Yet when Chu Luo was being bullied, she had never stood up to help her. In fact, many times, she even silently allowed others to bully her.

Otherwise, why would Chu Luo become the joke of the entire school when she had such a powerful sister?

It could be said that Chu Ting’s decision to watch with folded arms was a major reason.

Chu Luo gazed at the smug Chu Ting and asked with a puzzled tone, “Sister, last Saturday night, you went to the entertainment city to play and tricked me into taking the blame. I was beaten up by Mom, but nothing happened to you.

“That day at Zhang Tianyi’s family’s banquet, you tricked me again into meeting some expert outside. You said that only after I’ve become a tool would I be able to get into Imperial University. Luckily, I ran away.

“Why are you calling me out again today?”

Chu Ting subconsciously said in denial, “Chu Luo, what nonsense are you spouting?”

“Nonsense?”

Chu Luo raised her voice slightly. “We are twins, but everyone in school knows that you’ve never cared about me.

“Oh right, not only do you not care about me, but you threatened me into transferring all my allowance to you once the money gets credited into my account.”

“Nonsense!”

“I’m not spouting nonsense. Everyone in my class knows that I usually eat two yuan’s worth of bread and drink the drinking water in the classroom. I don’t usually wear any branded clothes…

“Actually, all these aren’t important. I just want to ask, what method did you come up with to deal with me, your sister, today? That’s why you personally came to my classroom to call me out, right?”

As Chu Luo finished speaking, dozens of pairs of eyes looked at Chu Ting.

After all, they were a group of high school students who were seventeen or eighteen years old. At this time, they still had a clear distinction between love and hate.

Everyone started whispering.

“So the school belle is like this.”

“I was wondering why Chu Luo ate only bread every afternoon. It turns out that the school belle took all her money.”

“If I had a sister like that, I would vomit to death.”

“You really can’t judge a book by its cover!”

…

Chu Ting’s face turned red as she heard Chu Luo’s words. Coupled with the fact that the worms in her body were eating her flesh, she was in so much pain that her face was contorted as she extended her hand, wanting to yank Chu Luo out.

Looking at Chu Ting’s expression, Chu Luo knew that it was the Gu poison acting up. Thus, she took large strides back and asked in a frightened tone, “Sister, what do you want to do to me?”

“What’s going on?”

A loud voice suddenly came from the door, followed by the form teacher, Old Gao, striding in.

He looked at the unfriendly-looking Chu Ting and then at Chu Luo, who had retreated to the window. He immediately frowned.

“Chu Ting, although Chu Luo is your sister, she is still my student. If you bully her, I will report this matter to the school’s heads immediately.”

“I…”

Just as Chu Ting was about to rebut, she suddenly thought viciously, ‘It’s better to blow things up. I’m in the top ten of our class, and Chu Luo is the last in the entire batch. The school will definitely not do anything to me. This way, Chu Luo will be able to see her own worth.’

At this thought, she said righteously, “I didn’t bully her. She bullied me.”

Teacher Gao frowned.

Chu Luo sneered when she heard this.

“Chu Ting, do you think that you can distort the truth just because your results are good?”

“You were the one who bullied me in the first place.” Chu Ting stuck to her story.

“Then tell me, how did I bully you?”

“You…”

“Can’t come up with anything?”

Chu Ting’s current appearance was that of an unreasonable and unruly girl, completely destroying the image of a goddess in everyone’s hearts.

Old Gao finally couldn’t stand it any longer and shouted, “Chu Ting, this is Grade 12, Class 4, not a place for you to do whatever you want. Our class is about to start, please leave!”

“No. Chu Luo must come with me.”

Chu Ting’s unreasonable tantrum attracted the attention of the teachers and students in the other classes. Someone quickly reported this matter to Chu Ting’s form teacher.

When Teacher Li rushed over, she was still very domineering. She felt that a good student like Chu Ting wouldn’t bully Chu Luo. Chu Luo was definitely in the wrong.

However, after Teacher Gao told everyone the whole story, Teacher Li’s face turned even redder and she wanted to drag Chu Luo away.

Before she left, she even said, “Chu Ting must be under too much pressure in her studies, unlike some students in your class who only know how to fantasize since they know they’re not going to pass for sure.”

“Hey! Teacher Li, what do you mean?”

Old Gao was furious, but he decided not to argue with a woman. He turned to Chu Luo and said, “Chu Luo, don’t listen to what others say. You just have to revise according to your progress.”

Initially, he’d wanted to publicize Chu Luo’s sudden enlightenment. Now, he changed his mind. He wanted to train Chu Luo in private and make her a dark horse in their class.
