Chapter 1053: Chapter 1055: In the Spotlight

Cai Ming yawned as he got up, rubbed his eyes, and prepared to wash up before eating.

These past few days, he’s been doing nothing but eating and sleeping, of course, exercising is a must too.

Besides being able to stay fit, it also intimidates Cai Guoqing and the others.

Just as he had imagined, Cai Guoqing was truly terrified.

Originally, he thought that when he got home, having more people around meant he wouldn’t fear Cai Ming.

But he couldn’t resist the fact that this guy had physical strength, this really firmed Cai Guoqing’s idea to kick Cai Ming out.

As soon as Cai Guoqing saw Cai Ming come out, he stopped talking immediately.

"Breakfast, huh." Cai Ming glanced around and found there was no breakfast.

Always thinking about food, Wang Jing cursed Cai Ming half to death in her heart, but she didn’t dare say anything, what if he suddenly beat her up?

"Cai Guoqing, my breakfast." Cai Ming said impatiently.

Oh my god, his gaze is terrifying, Cai Guoqing’s calves were trembling, how can someone be so ruthless.

"Cai Zetao ate it." Cai Guoqing quickly sold out his own son.

"Cai Zetao." Cai Ming looked at Cai Zetao, "Go make my breakfast."

"I..." Cai Zetao wanted to be tough, but he didn’t dare, he could only stand up trembling, "There’s no breakfast left."

"That’s your problem, whether you beg or go begging, I must have breakfast." Cai Ming couldn’t care less for these people.

"Begging?" Tu Chunni was furious, "He’s your nephew."

"I’m still his uncle, did he think about me when he ate my breakfast?"

With a cold snort, "Hurry up."

Cai Zhiheng watched Cai Ming’s stern face, devoid of any family affection, and felt angry.

"Cai Ming, he’s at least your nephew."

The Cai Family doesn’t have anyone who begs." If they really went out begging, even if relatives didn’t know, the old man would remember.

"Not begging, soon there’ll be someone needing re-education." He taunted coldly, "By then, I wonder who’d be more embarrassed."

"You’re talking nonsense." Wang Jing glared hatefully, "Gong Xiaoyu is fine."

"See, not nonsense, right." Cai Ming looked at Cai Zhiheng, poor confused old man, thinking his grandson’s a good person, "Why else would Wang Jian compete with Gong Xiaoyu and them."

"Alright, if not begging, then don’t do it, but your share of lunch is mine."

"Just watch us eat, mom and dad, you better not give him food or I’ll beat him up."

Cai Ming yawned, "Haven’t had a fight in a while."

He missed sparring with Zhao Xuran, Cai Ming absently said while doing some moves.

Cai Ming was just lamenting, but Cai Zetao was really scared.

Originally, he truly wasn’t worried, joking, him missing lunch was impossible, grandpa and grandma wouldn’t let it happen.

But Cai Ming’s following words, his moves, constantly reminded him not to upset him.

He must let grandpa agree for them to leave secretly, otherwise life would be unbearable.

Cai Zetao cursed Cai Ming fiercely in his heart.

Without turning back, knowing everyone from Cai Zhiheng to Cai Zetao hated him, to have so many people despise him is quite an achievement.

Gong Ruini returned to the dorm with a bag of food, on the way, she noticed everyone pointing fingers at her.

Oh my god, Gong Ruini was amazed, it’s just the beginning of the semester, and this matter has already spread?

This isn’t some online society, even if you meet some seniors at the train station, such a commotion would take several days to spread, right?

Apparently, Zhao Xuran has quite a few admirers, otherwise, this wouldn’t happen.

The more it is like this, Gong Ruini obviously straightened her posture even more, can’t let them look down on her.

And cannot lose this momentum, otherwise those pointing fingers would speak badly of her.

Gong Ruini walked back to the dorm like she was on a runway, startling her roommates.

"Ah, congratulations Ni Zi."

"Congratulations, congratulations."

Gong Ruini was puzzled by Liu Yun and the others’ actions, what’s going on?

Did something good happen to her? "What happened?"

Could it be that the people on the way weren’t pointing because of her and Zhao Xuran?

"You’ve topped all the subjects this time."

Everyone looked at Gong Ruini with a shocking gaze, it’s all subjects first place after all.

"More importantly, the second place is far behind you."

Oh, it can’t be, did she really do that well? Gong Ruini was truly amazed.

"Am I really that good?"

Gong Ruini thought for a moment and realized she misspoke, "I knew I would get a scholarship, but I didn’t expect my grades to be that good."

Oh boy, this really incites jealousy, Gong Ruini couldn’t imagine how many would curse her.

"With good grades, you’re worthy of Zhao Xuran, otherwise some people will keep chattering." Gao Jing was genuinely happy for Gong Ruini.

"By the way, how were your results?" Gong Ruini turned to ask about the others’ grades.

During pre-exam days, Gong Ruini specially tutored them.

"We did pretty well, except for Luo Zijun." Qiao Yanran was very pleased.

Back then, someone was very arrogant, with a face showing she’d get excellent grades, dumbfounded now?

Oh, did Luo Zijun do poorly? Though that girl hid it well, Gong Ruini paid extra attention due to her night studies, and noticed Luo Zijun had a flashlight, reading in bed post-lights-out.

For such a diligent person not to score well, compared to Gao Jing and their results, Gong Ruini worried Luo Zijun might blow up.

"I calculated this time, most in our dorm can get a scholarship." Qiao Yanran was obviously happy.

Though it’s the lowest tier of scholarships, it’s still quite a lot, enough for her for months.

Qiao Yanran was concerned at the moment, "Ni Zi, you’re not donating, right."

Donate what? Looking at Qiao Yanran’s cautious demeanor, Gong Ruini instantly realized what she meant, "I’ve said, it’s the result of my hard work, no one can force me to donate."

Gong Ruini despised such coercion, "Otherwise, would I have to donate every time later on?"

Qiao Yanran breathed a sigh of relief, if Gong Ruini yielded to pressure and agreed to donate, they probably couldn’t resist either.

"There’s a scholarship?" Luo Zijun was the last to arrive, catching the last bit, especially when it mentioned most dorm members had a scholarship, she was excited.

In Luo Zijun’s eyes, even if she couldn’t compare to Gong Ruini, she wouldn’t be inferior to the others.

Uh, seeing Luo Zijun’s eager expression, even Liu Yun, who always teased her, didn’t know what to say.

Tell her the truth? "Well, we just asked the teacher about our scores." Gao Jing stepped up, speaking moderately.

Not asking about her score made Luo Zijun pretty unhappy, but maybe they feared she’d break down upon hearing her score.

Watching Luo Zijun bounce off to inquire her grades from the teacher, everyone couldn’t help but sigh together.
