Even if I'm a Fake Heiress, I Will Dare to Be Trashy

Chapter 28

Zou Xuerong had always known that from the moment she entered this show, the only person whose eyes reflected her was Shen Yue.

So now, Shen Yue was the only one in her eyes as well.

The warmth from the hand holding hers belonged to Shen Yue, and so did the expressionless yet reassuring face in front of her. Zou Xuerong unwittingly relaxed, her eyes instantly turning red.

But she remembered they were not alone like in the mornings, but recording the show. She hid behind Shen Yue again and secretly wiped her tears.

Shen Yue held Zou Xuerong's hand tightly without letting go. With one hand holding the person and the other getting a stool, she moved Zou Xuerong away from Zou Xuezheng.

Shen Yue had also wanted to listen to the teacher attentively, hoping to make an effort after lying in bed for two days. But as she listened, she suddenly realized she had learned this before. She even...understood it quite well.

Of course, she had learned it from her memories.

But there was a saying, if you remember, it means you know it. So Shen Yue casually put down her pen and started looking around. Then she noticed something off about Zou Xuerong.

Without any hesitation, she brought Zou Xuerong over.

After placing Zou Xuerong's stool next to her own, Shen Yue patted the empty seat as a matter of course, signaling Zou Xuerong to sit down.

Zou Xuerong looked like she was about to cry again, but held it in at last.

She just quietly held Shen Yue's hand and whispered a soft "Thank you."

Zou Xuerong's act of grasping Shen Yue's hand appeared very covert on site, but was in fact very obvious on camera. The audience who had been moved to tears last night by the wonderful friendship between the two girls instantly started giggling like aunties.

【I'm sorry, though little Xuerong is pitiful and Yue jie is handsome as always, all I can say now is, hehehe, hand-holding!】

【Girl friendships are so beautiful.】

【Video editor, quickly cut this in too! I want to see an all-new promotional video of my daughter in 3 minutes!】

【Hello everyone, currently performing are my daughter and her lovely friend.】

【Damn, that's my daughter!!】

【Daily patrol to see if there are any scoundrels slandering my Yue jie for bullying others at school.】

【Seems like there aren't any left. Lots of barking around midnight, but they've probably all been banned now.】

【Thanks for the invite. I'm one of the midnight barkers. I admit I was a bit loud back then.】

【Lmao, admitting your mistakes means you can re-enter society.】

The teacher giving the lesson also noticed the interaction between Shen Yue and Zou Xuerong, but he didn't say anything. This wasn't a school, and he wouldn't force anyone to learn. That wasn't his job.

Everything was up to their own choices.

If they worked hard, they would reap rewards.

If not, they would be left behind by others.

The other celebrities didn't comment on Shen Yue's actions either. The teacher was going too fast and they had to concentrate fully.

Today's punishment had touched their sore spot. These top players in their own fields would absolutely not take orders from others, especially Shen Shuangyi.

He would risk his head cracking and blood flowing, but never compromise his dignity.

For the first time, Shen Yue saw real seriousness in her usually mocking second brother's eyes, as if it were a matter of life and death.

An amused Shen Yue stared at him for a while longer, successfully eliciting an eye roll from Shen Shuangyi, along with her own discarded pen.

Shen Shuangyi stuffed the pen back into Shen Yue's hand, taking notes from the teacher while whispering, "Pay attention, or else I won't be able to help you later if you get bullied."

As she took the pen, Shen Yue contrasted it with her memory of her second brother who was always nasty to her. She was suddenly rather touched.

Her second brother didn't seem so bad after all. Though his words were unpleasant, he truly cared for her.

The teacher quickly finished his lecture without pause, immediately putting a question on the whiteboard and taking out his phone to start the timer.

"You have a limited time of 20 minutes. Use whatever means within these 20 minutes, as long as you can answer and explain the principles behind this question in the end."

This statement tacitly allowed the celebrities to help each other. Suddenly they all felt the production team was very kind today.

Especially after seeing the question, they became even more convinced of this notion.

"A boat is floating on the lake with many rocks inside. If the rocks are taken out and thrown into the water, what change will the water surface undergo? A. No change B. Rise C. Fall..."

"This is so easy! It must be A, no change!" Jiang Shiwen confidently muttered to himself.

Shen Yue gave him a knowing look from her own experience.

The usually arrogant Jiang Shiwen somehow understood the meaning in Shen Yue's eyes and moved closer to her, explaining softly, "You don't know this. It's strategy. I'm deliberately telling others the wrong answer first, then I'll choose the right one myself. I know the correct answer is B."

Shen Yue was already rendered speechless.

From observing Shen Yue's expression, Jiang Shiwen realized something once again. He quietly covered his mouth in astonishment and exclaimed, "Could it be C?"

Shen Yue neither confirmed nor denied it.

"WTF? How could it be C? I don't get it, teach me Yue jie!" Jiang Shiwen got excited and accidentally raised his voice, using the same loud tone he normally argued with.

This also allowed Zou Xuezheng and Li Xing at the other end to hear the answer.

Zou Xuezheng had originally chosen A, but decisively picked C after hearing Jiang Shiwen's clamor.

Although she didn't like Shen Yue, there was no doubt Shen Yue seemed quite reliable in these matters.

At the same time, Li Xing also chose C after hearing Jiang Shiwen's words, even though he didn't know why. As long as he knew the answer, he could work backwards from it.

How else could he have been valued by the person in power of the Jiang family, Jiang Shiwen's sister?

It was just that the woman seemed to always be on guard against him, which annoyed him greatly. He had only agreed to be on this show to make Jiang Shiwen's sister feel nervous.

He wanted that woman to see his popularity and charm in the show, thus feeling a sense of crisis.

It didn't matter that Shen Yue had stolen the limelight the previous two times. Now was the right time.

Zou Xuezheng was not so fortunate. As the director said, after graduating high school, she had wholeheartedly devoted herself to becoming more popular. When would she even remember what she learned in the past?

Even if she did know how to solve this kind of problem before, she had mostly forgotten now.

The teacher had spoken too quickly just now and Zou Xuerong kept affecting her, so she couldn't properly listen to the lecture at all.

But soon, Zou Xuezheng calmed down. It was fine. She was very capable and also learned quickly. As long as someone was willing to teach her this question, she could definitely learn it right away.

With this thought, Zou Xuezheng went to Li Xing who had also chosen C. "Teacher Li Xing, may I trouble you to explain it to me? The teacher spoke too quickly just now. I got distracted for a moment and didn't catch some parts clearly. I'd like to confirm with you again."

Even at this point, Zou Xuezheng's excuse was not that she didn't understand, but that there were some parts she wanted to confirm.

Little did she know, it was precisely her seamless pretext that caused her major trouble in this matter.

Li Xing figured since he didn't understand anyway, and Zou Xuezheng just wanted confirmation, meaning she already knew part of it, he only needed to pick out what she knew from their conversation.

"Of course, my pleasure."
