C15 Excellent Performance!

Ms. Chen paused for a moment before saying, "Ms. Lin Qianqian, do you need something?"

Lin Qianqian stood up. "Teacher, may I try translating this essay?"

Ms. Chen stared at her for a couple of seconds, her mouth twitching slightly, before reluctantly saying, "Alright, give it a try. But don't push yourself if it's too hard."

"Aeons ago..." Lin Qianqian read a line from the original text and translated it, "A long time ago..."

About ten minutes later, Lin Qianqian finished the translation.

"Very good!" Ms. Chen looked at Lin Qianqian with surprise and started clapping first. "Ms. Lin Qianqian's translation is excellent. Let's give her a round of applause."

"You're amazing!" Su Hao clapped enthusiastically.

The rest of the class joined in with applause.

Qin Miaomiao's face turned sour with anger.

Lin Qingqing remained calm, but her hands tightly gripped her school skirt, her fingers turning slightly white from the pressure. She was the class representative for English, and it had always been her pride. Now, Lin Qianqian had stolen the spotlight, and she couldn't stand it!

After the second class, the break was the longest, lasting fifteen minutes. First, they went outside to listen to the broadcast and do five minutes of exercises, then they could go to the restroom or head back to the classroom.

As Lin Qianqian came out of the girls' restroom, Su Hao intercepted her in the hallway, grinning. "Lin Qianqian, there's a new bubble tea shop on the street behind the school. It's really good. How about I treat you to some this afternoon?"

"No time." She glanced at him and started to walk away.

"Hey, don't rush off." Su Hao quickly reached out and grabbed her hand.

Lin Qianqian forcefully shook off his hand and glared at him.

In her past life, it was on this exact day that she and Su Hao had a fight here, which led to school punishment. This only fueled more gossip among the students, and soon after, she decided to drop out.

"Su Hao, are you just naturally annoying?"

He used to be so obnoxious to her, and now he's shamelessly trying to cozy up?

"Huh? Are you calling me annoying?" Su Hao responded, not angry at all. Instead, he leaned in with a cheeky grin. "Lin Qianqian, I'm sorry for not treating you well before, but honestly, your previous style was pretty scary... If I had known how you really looked, guys would have lined up from the school gate to our classroom door to chase you. Oh, and I'd definitely be first in line!"

Lin Qianqian smirked, "In your dreams. You're nowhere near my boyfriend's level. The gap between you two is as wide as the Pacific Ocean!"

"Hahaha, come on, with the way you used to dress, who would even notice you?" Su Hao laughed.

Their classmates from the third period found it amusing as they passed by.

Lin Qingqing pretended to wash her hands nearby, listening in. She squinted her eyes, a plan forming in her mind. Seeing Su Hao lean closer to Lin Qianqian, she discreetly took out her phone and snapped a picture of them. From that angle, it looked like they were about to kiss...

Lin Qianqian couldn't be bothered with Su Hao anymore and turned to leave. But Su Hao suddenly reached out and grabbed her hand...

Lin Qingqing, with her phone in hand, quietly captured that moment too.

After last night's conversation with Lin Qianqian, she learned that Young Master Lu actually liked Lin Qianqian's heavy makeup and revealing outfits? Could he really be into that?

Lin Qingqing started to realize a serious issue: Young Master Lu had seen Lin Qianqian's true beauty beneath all that makeup and didn't mind it. Was there a chance he might start to fall for her?

The thought of this possibility made Lin Qingqing restless. She had to do something to make Young Master Lu despise Lin Qianqian!
