<h4>Chapter 128: Dug Her Own Grave</h4>


    When the name of who hade in first ce was read out, the whole ss buzzed in an uproar.


    Almost everyone turned their heads in disbelief and stared at Yun Xi, sitting isted in thest row at a single table.


    None of them believed it and thought it was impossible.


    The one who had the strongest reaction was Liang Xinyi.


    When she heard that Yun Xi had taken first ce, she exploded.


    “Teacher! Did you make a mistake? I know her best. Her grades in the countryside were worse than mine. How could she be the first in the ss after she’se to Jingdu? She must have cheated.”


    “Liang Xinyi, you are Yun Xi’s cousin. Isn’t this too cruel for you to nder her like this?”


    Teacher Xu really disliked this mean-spirited female student, especially because she was Yun Xi’s rtive.


    He had never seen anyone nder their own rtive like this. How had their parents educated their children?


    He felt that it was going to be necessary to call the parents in for the parent meeting next Monday.


    “You ndered her in ss and encouraged everyone in ss to ostracize her. Isn’t that why she’s sitting at the back? Then tell me, how could she cheat when she’s all by herself?”


    Liang Xinyi nced at the table that was at a distance from all the rest of them and shot daggers at Yun Xi as she said resentfully, “Who knows? Maybe she cheated by copying the answers from a cheat sheet?”


    “Then you mean that the proctor for every subject was blind, right? I’m standing here, and I can see every little movement clearly. Wouldn’t I know whether or not she’d cheated?”


    “I...” Liang Xinyi suddenly had nothing to say after being so publicly rebuked by her homeroom teacher like this.


    She felt extremely dissatisfied and envious.


    No matter what, she couldn’t believe that Yun Xi, that wretched girl, could get first ce. She’d obviously cheated.


    “Let me tell you now that your grades were second tost in the ss. You all are now in thest semester. You must know what you should and should not do. You must devote all your time and energy to your studies, instead of paying attention to idiotic things that distract you from your studies.”


    Liang Xinyi was ashamed and embarrassed when the teacher announced her results in front of the ss.


    Yun Xi had gotten first ce in the ss, and she’d gotten second-tost ce. How could this be possible?


    The examination had indeed been very difficult, but she’d copied the answers from her ssmate who’d been sitting at the same table, so why was her score still second tost?


    She suddenly turned her head to look at Yao Bingbing, who was sitting next to her. However, Yao Bingbing’s attention was on Yun Xi. From the admiring look in her eyes, Liang Xinyi immediately understood what had happened.


    She’d been yed by Yao Bingbing. She’d dug her own grave.


    The second-tost score in the ss immediately attracted the attention of the entire ss.


    Everyone stared at Liang Xinyi, who’d dered that Yun Xi was a scourge and that getting close to her would bring bad luck. Liang Xinyi had been the one behind all the nder.


    Not only were her grades horrible, but she’d used such an underhanded tactic to hoodwink the entire ss.


    For the moment, all her ssmates stared at Liang Xinyi with contempt and loathing in their expressions.


    Liang Xinyi was disheartened by her ssmates’ reactions. The more smug she’d been when she ndered Yun Xi, the more awkward and embarrassing it was for her now.


    “If everyone feels that Yun Xi might have cheated, you might as well take a look at her essay. I gave her full marks for her essay, and I also let the other teachers read it. Everyone agreed that she deserved a full mark. I’ve made a few copies and will post them on the ckboard afterward. You can all take a look and study it.”


    Sitting in thest row, Yun Xi’s mind was on what gifts to bring to the Chen family’s house the next time she went there.


    Only when the teacher called her name did she snap back to reality. When she snapped back to reality, she noticed the whole ss staring at her.


    Among all the stares, the vehement re Liang Xinyi was giving her was especially eye-catching.


    “Now, the ss leader wille up to get the list of the grade ranks of the whole ss and the whole grade, and then post it on the small ckboard after ss so everyone can see the gaps between himself and the person above him.”


    The ss leader Li Sinuo turned his head back to the front of the ssroom and stood up. Suppressing his envious gaze, he took the ranking list from their homeroom teacher.
