Chapter 535: Foolproof Plan

The person who spoke up was Liu Dan, who had feelings for Fang Manxue.

Despite the scandal between Fang Manxue and Bai Chenxi, his feelings remained unchanged for her.

For a boy with a simple family background like him, her fall from grace had given him hope for his unrequited feelings.

Perhaps, she would finally direct her gaze toward him?

Fang Manxue came to school early today. After taking her seat, she immediately became the centre of everyone’s attention. She wanted them to see exactly how she planned to step on Fang Xinxin.

Liu Dan peeked at Fang Manxue but discovered that she did not even take a single glance at him. He immediately felt a hint of disappointment.

It was true that she was the young lady of a wealthy family. Although the Fang Corporation was currently facing financial difficulties, a starving camel was still bigger than a horse.

“How do you know that our Xinxin will do poorly?” Sun Jiamu glared at Liu Dan.

Before Liu Dan could respond, Fang Manxue spoke up. “Third Sister, I really have to thank you this time.”

“Oh?” Fang Xinxin lifted her brows. “What did I do for a black lotus like you to thank me?”

“Who did you just call a black lotus?” Fang Manxue was enraged.

“You.” Her response was direct.

Fang Manxue’s chest felt hot with anger.

However, she held onto her smile. “I won’t be petty with you. Besides, soon you’ll be kneeling down in Bai Qinghao’s presence to address me as your grandmother!”

“Tsk, you speak as if you’re certain to win,” Fang Xinxin spoke in disdain.

“Hmph, right now, the entire country knows about the agreement we made. It’s difficult even for Bai Qinghao to protect you.” Fang Manxue responded confidently. “When our examination results are out and you’re kneeling down before me, I’ll let you know exactly why I thanked you.”

Unlike on other days, Fang Xinxin had already investigated this matter and discovered that there was an underground betting deal and the Fang family had borrowed a large sum of money, betting that Fang Manxue would win.

Fang Xinxin guessed that she was thanking her for if she lost, she would be helping the Fang family earn a large sum of money.

“I’m going to win,” Fang Xinxin informed Fang Manxue, only to receive snorts of derision from Fang Manxue and the entire class.

This was because from a young age, she had never once performed better than Fang Manxue.

Although previously in French class, her performance was far beyond what Fang Manxue and Jiang Xingnan could achieve, in this mid-term examinations, they would be tested in Mandarin, English, Mathematics, French…

All these added up to nine different subjects.

As long as Fang Manxue’s total score was better than hers, she would win.

Thus, no one believed that Fang Xinxin could win.

Even Sun Jiamu’s gaze was filled with worry.

Jiang Xingnan entered the classroom at that time. As he passed by Fang Xinxin, he whispered. “I’ll try to let you copy my paper later.”

Fang Xinxin was astonished. She had expected Jiang Xingnan to mock her and was surprised that he actually offered to help.

Fang Manxue wasn’t certain if Jiang Xingnan had feelings for the ugly Fang Xinxin but she already made preparations for it.

A teacher from another class stepped into the classroom and stood on the lecturer’s podium. “The mid-term examinations for the Year 2 students were prepared by the respective subject teachers. Your performance in this examination will determine ten percent of your overall grades. Due to the private agreement between Fang Manxue and Fang Xinxin, this examination is receiving a lot of attention from the public. Thus, for the sake of ensuring that everything is handled fairly, we will be recording the entire process. The seats will be assigned by drawing lots. After the papers are handed in, I will cover everyone’s names. The teachers will also be recorded whilst they grade the papers. I guarantee that they will not be able to see your names when they grade your papers and will do it fairly. No one is allowed to raise their voice or move about while the examination is being conducted…”

Everyone listened seriously while Fang Manxue smirked.
