The exam had just finished, and a group of people were chattering away.

"Hey." The girl stepped forward to catch up with Shen Anya. "Anya, how did you do on the exam? You're in the top three of the International Class again, right?"

Shen Anya brushed a strand of hair behind her ear and smiled slightly, "It's alright, the questions this time won't be too difficult, I've reviewed them all."

"That's definitely no problem, I'm in the top three!" The girl paused, "Oh, by the way, how's your illegitimate older sister? She's probably going to get kicked out of the Rocket Class after this exam!"

The girl next to him laughed, "Haha, the results will be announced in a couple of days, I'm really looking forward to seeing that!"

Shen Anya's expression darkened, and she spoke up to dissuade them, "Don't talk about Luoluo like that. She's also working hard to review."

"Oh, oh," the girl nodded, with an expression that said, "Yes, yes, even if you study very hard, you still get kicked out of the Rocket Class!"

"That's right! No matter how hard a country bumpkin tries, she'll still be a country bumpkin! She's dreaming of climbing the social ladder and becoming a phoenix! Keep dreaming!"

"Hahaha--" The group burst into laughter.

Shen Anya held her books, and where no one could see, a smile played on her lips. She was also looking forward to the day her results would come out!

Just then, Shen Anya's phone vibrated. She opened it and saw a message from her good friend Xiang Lu, telling her...

[Honey, I'm back! I'm at the school gate, come and greet me!]

I brought you a gift!

Shen Anya's eyes lit up. After greeting the girls next to her, she headed straight for the school gate.

Before she even arrived, she could see two people standing at the school gate from afar: one was her good friend Xiang Lu, and the other was Xiang Lu's fiancé Lu Yanshi.

Xiang Lu also saw Shen Anya and waved happily to her, "Anya, over here!"

As soon as the person entered, she pouted at Xiang Lu, "Anya, you're so slow! I've been waiting for you for so long, it's been three months, I've missed you so much!"

Xiang Lu and Lu Yanshi participated in the school's exchange student program, exchanging lives with students from a United Kingdom school for three months. These past two days have marked the end of the three-month exchange period, and the two immediately rushed back.

Xiang Lu waved the gift box in her hand. "Here! This is a gift I brought for you, a new seasonal item from G brand! I'm sure you'll like it!"

"Thank you Lu Lu, I really like it!" Shen Anya took the gift box, hugged her good friend Xiang Lu, thanked Xiang Lu, but her eyes were on Lu Yanshi next to Xiang Lu.

"I specifically chose to come back on the day you finished your exams!" Xiang Lu grinned mischievously. "Come on, since the exams are over, let's go to the city and have some fun!"

She pointed to Lu Yanshi beside her. "He's treating!"

Shen Anya smiled slightly, "Then I'll tell my parents."

Meanwhile, the Rocket Class.

With exam week over, everyone relaxed, and the classroom returned to its usual lively atmosphere.

Everyone was chattering away, discussing the exam questions from the past two days and where they would go to relax after school.

Shen Luoluo and Qin Shiyue were also discussing the exam questions, comparing their answers to the last subject.

Shen Luoluo discovered that Qin Shiyue was even more different than she had imagined. Perhaps it was because their first meeting was at the family reunion banquet, where Zhao Huizhen took the initiative to greet Chairman Qin, and later she learned that Qin Shiyue's father was a school board member. She had a preconceived notion that Qin Shiyue was also the kind of spoiled young lady who didn't like studying.

It was only after this monthly exam that I realized she wasn't like that. She was just like everyone else, studying hard, even harder than them.

"What's wrong? Is it different from your answer? Did I calculate it wrong?" Qin Shiyue noticed Shen Luoluo's dazed expression and asked.

"No," Shen Luoluo quickly shook her head, "I just think you're amazing."

Qin Shiyue raised an eyebrow proudly, "I know what you're thinking. Don't you think I'm not like those rich young ladies you imagine who don't need to study and just spend their days dressing up and dating?"

Shen Luoluo slightly opened her eyes.

Qin Shiyue knew she had guessed correctly from her little expression. She twirled the pen in her hand twice and said with a smile, "Don't be surprised, I can't help it. You'll understand if you're like me."

Her voice was calm. "My dad only has one daughter, I don't even have a son. I must study hard so that when he can't work anymore, I can take over the company from him, and he can entrust it to me with peace of mind."

"I don't want my dad's decades of hard work to be ruined because I'm too bad at it."

She spoke casually, but Shen Luoluo knew that the suffering behind it was definitely not so simple. She inexplicably thought of Shen Jingyao. As the eldest son of the Shen Family, was he also under pressure?

"I believe you can do it!" Shen Luoluo comforted her.

The girl in front of her had clear pupils, a firm gaze, red lips, and white teeth. She stared at her intently, her eyes filled with trust. Qin Shiyue was charmed and couldn't help but pinch Shen Luoluo's cheek, then huffed, "I think I can too!"

The two looked at each other and smiled again.

Qi Yang, who was playing on his phone nearby, looked over when he heard the laughter and unconsciously curled his lips into a smile. The black earring on his left ear sparkled in the sunlight.

Qin Shiyue and Shen Luoluo were looking at the answers when their deskmate Xu Lu, who had been gone for a while, returned. Qin Shiyue immediately smelled the perfume on him.

She blinked, then was surprised to find that Xu Lu had actually fixed his hair and used hairspray!

Something's up!

As soon as the bell rang and Xu Lu left, Qin Shiyue immediately turned around and told Shen Luoluo and Qi Yang what she had just discovered, "Xu Lu is up to something! He wore cologne and hairspray again today, and he looked so handsome. There's definitely something fishy going on!"

Chen Jiashu leaned closer, placing a hand on Qi Yang's shoulder. "What else could be going on? They must have gone on a date!" Their eyes met, and Chen Jiashu raised an eyebrow. "Why don't we go check it out?"

[Dating?]

Shen Luoluo seemed to smell gossip. She opened her Intelligence System and said, "[Let me see, which girl Xu Lu went on a date with! It shouldn't be one of our classmates, right?]"
