Chapter 56: Chapter 56 Reversal, Fatal Blow
Chapter 56 -56 Reversal, Fatal Blow
“Let’s go, we’ll find Director Han and Principal Li,” Tian Wangcheng called to Tan Lu as they prepared to leave.
“Wait a moment, Mr. Tian!” A teacher called out to Tian Wangcheng, her voice tinged with surprise.
“Is there something else?” Tian Wangcheng hadn’t noticed the emotion in the teacher’s tone; his mind was focused on dealing with Tan Lu’s issue.
The teacher glanced uneasily at Tian Wangcheng before slowly saying, “Mr. Tian, there’s another student who has made it into the top twenty, with a higher score than Tan Lu’s.”
After speaking, she hardly dared to look at Tian Wangcheng’s face, which she imagined had gone from elation to now being clouded with gloom.
Tian Wangcheng simply couldn’t believe it, instinctively saying, “How is that possible? Didn’t you just say that you’ve already accounted for all the students from Class A who scored over six hundred and fifty points?”
Tan Lu was also convinced that it wasn’t at all possible!
After all, she and Jiang Fanyue had gone over the names of those who could possibly rank in the top twenty before and after the exam, and they were crystal clear about it.
Who else could be such a dark horse?
Apart from Si Qing, where could one possibly find such a student in Class B or C?
“Mr. Tian, there really is one,” the female teacher said, her voice tempered by the low pressure emanating from the two of them.
Tian Wangcheng realized she wouldn’t lie to him, his feet felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds, and his voice was unpleasant: “Who?”
Tan Lu too looked at the speaking teacher in disbelief.
She could only hope that the teacher was joking.
“It’s Xiao Meng from the unnamed class. Six hundred and seventy points,” she articulated clearly, pausing between each word.
Tian Wangcheng felt a thundering noise in his head.
He rushed over, stood in front of the teacher, and grabbed the mouse to scroll through Xiao Meng’s scores on the spreadsheet.
Chinese, Mathematics, English, Comprehensive, her scores astonishingly showed no weak areas!
He then grabbed Xiao Meng’s exam paper and glanced through it at random; the handwriting was clear and neat. Picking a question at random, the thought process in the answer was very logical.
No one had given her an easy time.
Xiao Meng had indeed scored six hundred and seventy points!
The very Xiao Meng he personally kicked out of Class A!
The Xiao Meng he had looked down on for her unstable performance and emotions, the one he had felt would negatively influence the other students in the class!
Now, Xiao Meng had achieved the very score he had always dreamed of, delivering him a fatal blow in the process.
Tian Wangcheng’s mind was in chaos, his fingers trembling so violently that the mouse he had knocked fell below the table, dangling and pulled by its cord.
And Tan Lu, her body trembling, felt a chill rush from her feet to her forehead, her brain ceasing to function.
…
In Class A, Jiang Fanyue was gathering with classmates who were on good terms with her.
“I’ll treat everyone to hotpot after school to celebrate our monthly holiday,” Jiang Fanyue said with a smile, her eyes gentle.

Everyone knew her offer to treat them to a meal was not just about the monthly holiday—it was also because of Tan Lu.
Bringing up this matter only made everyone feel more that Jiang Fanyue was a good friend to have; she was so sincere in her treatment of Tan Lu, and showed not a hint of pretentiousness, truly a rare quality in a person.
Being her friend was something everyone dreamt of.
“I want to eat tender beef.”
“Shrimp paste, shrimp paste yyds!”
“Okay, order whatever you want, I’m paying,” Jiang Fanyue said with a smile.
Zhang Xi walked into the classroom from outside. Jiang Fanyue called out to her, “Zhang Xi, let’s have hotpot together tonight.”
But Zhang Xi didn’t show the slightest bit of joy, and instead said, “Fanyue, there are big-character posters on the school forum and bulletin board! Tan Lu’s disciplinary notice has been posted!”
Jiang Fanyue’s smile froze on her face: “What?”
“It’s the same as the previous notice, Tan Lu is expelled,” Zhang Xi said, her voice considerably lower.
Jiang Fanyue immediately understood—it was Tan Lu’s last-ditch effort to make it into the top twenty of the exams, and she had failed.
The school had already given her a chance, and since she didn’t seize it, the original decision would naturally stand.
Jiang Fanyue wondered who could have unexpectedly made it into the top twenty.
The students gathered around Jiang Fanyue heard this and suddenly didn’t dare continue discussing the hotpot anymore, looking at each other in dismay.
Jiang Fanyue forced a smile: “Let’s still have hotpot tonight.”
Everyone knew why she was treating them to hotpot, and seeing her distressed look, they all waved their hands and said, “Let’s do it next time, we’ll go eat next time.”
“Fanyue, don’t be too upset. It’s not Tan Lu’s fault,” someone said.
Jiang Fanyue clenched her fist until she felt a piercing pain, only to realize she had scratched her palm with her own fingernails.
Ever since Jiang Zhe transferred to this school, she had encountered problem after problem—why did it always involve Jiang Zhe!
…
By lunchtime in the cafeteria, Jiang Fanyue had learned who had made it into the top twenty.
Everyone around Jiang Zhe was discussing Xiao Meng’s grades.
Xia Enci was particularly animated, “Xiao Meng’s grades have always been good. Now that she’s solved some of her longstanding issues and her mood has improved, it’s natural that her grades have bounced back. From now on, I’m counting on Xiao Meng for my academic scores.”
“Six hundred and seventy, I’ve never even dreamt of such a high score!” Four-Eyes pushed up his glasses, “I never thought our unnamed class would have such a day.”
Xiao Meng smiled, “My grades wouldn’t have been possible without everyone’s help, so I want to thank you all as well.”
“You don’t know, today I saw Tian Wangcheng’s face, it was just like a pig’s liver! Completely unrecognizable! If you ask me, it serves him right to get a lesson. Although everyone in school measures heroism by grades, to be honest, I’ve never seen a teacher as mercenary as he is! If you have good grades, he’ll pamper you, but if they’re even slightly unstable, he’ll discard you like a worn-out shoe! Now, let him wait for his regret!”
Jiang Zhe, upon hearing this, glanced casually at Xiao Meng.
The smile on Xiao Meng’s face didn’t change at all, remaining calm and collected. Clearly, having gone through so much, she had grown up and wouldn’t be affected by such trifling matters—her emotions were no longer that easily disturbed.
Four-Eyes asked, “What about Tan Lu?”
“Oh, she already went to the class to pack up her things. The look in her eyes… she seemed quite defiant. Why doesn’t she think about the harm her actions have caused others? What, so it’s fine when she bullies people, but we can’t fight back fairly?” Xia Enci spat.
Song Xingyu picked up a cola: “Forget it, the matter is resolved, that’s good. Let’s not talk about it anymore. Come on, let’s have some cola.”
“It’s not completely resolved though. Tian Wangcheng still owes Jiang Zhe and Xiao Meng an apology! And it should happen at the full school assembly!” Xia Enci looked forward to the drama.
Song Xingyu and Four-Eyes also got excited: “Really? Tian Wangcheng has to face that day? Wait, I’ll invite more friends to come and give him a good audience!”
