[Room]
Before long, someone came knocking at the door.
Lu Sheng went to open it and saw Lu Qianrou holding a stack of materials, a friendly and considerate smile on her face: “Sister, I’m here to highlight the key points for tomorrow’s Shengjing exam for you, I’ve printed out all the materials for you.”
“Ah, thank you, sister,” Lu Sheng also smiled slightly, “I didn’t expect my sister to go to so much trouble for my school admission, please come in.”
“There’s no need to be polite, sister,” Lu Qianrou’s tone was especially close, “Mom and I heard that you told Grandpa Fu not to force me and Fu Chen to break up, so we can be together. I wronged you before.”
“Now that sister has arrived at the Lu Family, we are the closest of sisters and should get along well. If sister can get into Shengjing, we can go to school together. I’m really looking forward to it.”
This sincere and genuine tone, if it were the naive original host here, she might really believe it.
But Lu Sheng just smiled, her eyes hinting at something deeper: “Yes, I’m looking forward to it too.”
Lu Qianrou had just walked up to the table with the materials and was about to put them down when suddenly, she heard a cat’s meow from behind.
“Meow~”
She was startled, and the moment she turned around, something pitch-black pounced towards her, scaring her into shrieking loudly as she stepped back.
“Ahh—!!!”
Black Bean was on the carpet in front of Lu Qianrou, arching its back in a fighting stance, its dark green eyes filled with hostility as it glared fiercely at the person in front of it.
“Black Bean, stop it.”
Seeing Lu Qianrou scream in fright, Lu Sheng called out to Black Bean, who then relaxed and with another meow, jumped back onto the bed.
“Lu Sheng, you, you… you actually keep a cat in the room? Where did this cat come from?” Lu Qianrou was still unsettled, her heart had nearly leapt out from the scare.
“It’s a cat I used to raise in the countryside. I found it by the window yesterday, I didn’t expect it to follow me all the way to Jiang City.”
“What?!” Lu Qianrou’s eyes widened, “You mean, this cat came from the countryside on its own to Jiang City and even found you? How is that possible?”
“I was surprised too, but it’s true,” Lu Sheng said innocently.
Lu Qianrou took a deep breath, just about to mention that Jiang Ting is allergic to cat hair and pets are not allowed in the house, when she heard Lu Sheng say:
“Don’t worry, sister. Black Bean won’t leave the room, it won’t cause any trouble for you. It just jumped out because it was startled by a stranger.”
“I don’t know if it’s okay to keep pets in the house, so I am asking sister to keep this secret for me,” Lu Sheng looked up, “after all, we are the closest sisters, you wouldn’t go tell mother, would you?”
“…Of course,” Lu Qianrou forcefully swallowed what she was about to say, squeezing out a smile, “I won’t tell mom, you can rest assured, sister.”
But now Lu Qianrou wasn’t concerned about the cat issue anymore, as she had a task at hand.
She pulled Lu Sheng to sit down at the table and started to introduce her to Shengjing High School.

“Sister, you don’t know, but Shengjing is the best aristocratic private high school in Jiang City, and those who study at Shengjing either come from very wealthy families or are exceptional students from poor families who are admitted out of turn.”
“However, even if you come from a very wealthy family, you still need to pass Shengjing’s entrance exam.”
“Every year, at the start of the school term, Shengjing holds an entrance exam for new and transfer students, which like the college entrance examination, consists of four subjects: Chinese, Mathematics, English, and either Science Comprehensive or Liberal Arts Comprehensive, with a total of 750 points.”
“You need at least 500 points to enter Shengjing, and then based on the test scores, the school sorts new students into classes.”
“Scoring 500-549, you’re placed in E class, 550-599 in D class, 600-649 in C class, 650-699 in B class, and over 700 in A class.”
Lu Sheng looked up: “So, that means A class consists of the best students in the entire grade, those with the best scores, right?”
“Of course,” Lu Qianrou said with a pride that couldn’t be concealed, “I was the second highest scorer in the entire grade on the entrance exam, with 729 points. The top scorer was Fourth Brother, he scored full marks in all subjects.”
Fourth Brother, Lu Youming.
Whether it was Lu Jingyan or Lu Qianrou, they both spoke of Lu Youming with a look of admiration, which piqued Lu Sheng’s interest in this “Fourth Brother” she had not yet met.
Lu Sheng did not speak, and Lu Qianrou, thinking she felt inferior to the gap between them, consoled her pretentiously: “It’s okay, sister.”
“Although I heard from big brother that the best score you got in your rural high school was just over five hundred, and the questions at your rural school are not at the same level as Shengjing, you don’t need to worry.”
“These are reference questions from the Shengjing question bank,” Lu Qianrou picked up the stack of materials she had printed out, “I’ve printed out the entire question bank for sister. If you can read through all of them and remember, the exam tomorrow will definitely be no problem.”
Lu Sheng glanced at it.
Let alone whether Lu Qianrou had sincerely found her the questions, just this thick stack of materials would take at least a day or two just to flip through.
To actually remember them, even staying up all night wouldn’t help remember it all within one day.
Lu Qianrou saw the look in her eyes and immediately said: “These questions are indeed a bit much, sister probably can’t finish them in one day. How about this, just look through these multiple-choice questions, and for essay questions, just do whatever you think is best.”
Lu Qianrou offered her advice thoughtfully, “The multiple-choice questions in the start-of-term exams are basically drawn from the question bank. If sister memorizes all the answers, that’s 300 points just from the multiple-choice alone, making 500 points a piece of cake.”
Lu Sheng nodded her head, a sincere expression on her face: “Makes sense, why don’t you help me separate the multiple-choice questions, and I’ll go get you a glass of juice.”
“Okay,” Lu Qianrou agreed extremely readily.
Lu Sheng left the room and returned ten minutes later with two glasses of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice.
Lu Qianrou took one and drank half of it in one gulp, focusing on marking with a pen.
Lu Sheng stood by, glancing at one of the math multiple-choice questions on the paper, realizing why Lu Qianrou was so helpful today.
The correct answers marked for these multiple-choice questions were all wrong.
It really was quite the effort for Lu Qianrou.
Afraid that she might blunder into scoring five hundred by her original abilities, she resorted to misleading her with questions that avoided the correct answers altogether, so she wouldn’t even get the marks for the multiple-choice.
This way, she definitely wouldn’t score five hundred.
Too bad that for Lu Sheng, human-level questions were as simple as how much is one plus one. She could see the correct answers at a glance.
Still, the girl maintained her smile: “Thank you, sister. Don’t worry, I will definitely remember these answers well today.”
