Even Zhou Chengchen herself was stunned.

Because of what happened yesterday, she had already thrown away all those unpleasant moments, completely paying them no mind.

She could lose her temper, she could bully others, but that was just in a fit of rage. If Xi Siyan hadn’t been in the classroom yesterday, if Xi Siyan’s indifferent gaze hadn’t deflated her spirits, she definitely would have gone head-to-head with Chen Youran.

Later on, it was also because of Xi Siyan’s gentle care that she didn’t dwell on those unpleasant matters.

But now, none of it mattered to her, as Zhou Chengchen didn’t regard her at all.

But Chen Youran actually came forward to apologize now.

Zhou Chengchen was stunned for a few seconds, then glanced at Xi Siyan, and again at Xiao Rou in the front row.

Xiao Rou also looked bewildered. Zhou Chengchen calmed her mind. She was protective. If Xiao Rou had been the victim yesterday, she probably would still have the energy to sarcastically retaliate and get revenge.

But since she herself had been the victim yesterday, Zhou Chengchen found she wasn’t interested in that anymore.

Unusually, she smiled generously, "It’s alright, it’s alright, I’m fine."

As she spoke, she smiled sincerely. She was indeed pretty, though her temperament didn’t elicit any sympathy or protective impulses. But she was a great beauty, and that smile was truly pleasing to the eye.

People around them started whispering again, evidently not expecting Zhou Chengchen to be so easygoing.

However, the person involved, Chen Youran, wouldn’t think that way. In her mind, it was just Zhou Chengchen pretending to be generous in front of Xi Siyan.

She bit her lip, gave Xi Siyan a sidelong glance, and left unwillingly.

Yesterday, those who had unjustly supported Chen Youran against Zhou Chengchen came over to apologize; some couldn’t bring themselves to do so and remained silent.

Zhou Chengchen didn’t care either, laughed it off, feeling even better.

After finishing lunch and returning at noon, Zhou Chengchen sat in the classroom for a while. Estimating the time, she got up and went to the teacher’s office.

"Teacher, I want to participate in the competition."

The homeroom teacher was sitting on the chair drinking tea, almost spat it out upon hearing this, coughed twice, and looked at Zhou Chengchen: "You... you... what did you say?"

"I want to participate in the competition."

The word "want" was gone, and it turned directly into "I want".

The homeroom teacher was stunned for a long time, seeing Zhou Chengchen so serious, seemingly not joking at all, paused for a while, and spoke earnestly, "Zhou Chengchen, your grades are good, and quite balanced across all subjects. You will definitely do well in the college entrance exam, but this path of competition... it’s not suitable for you."

The homeroom teacher’s words were full of meaning. He affirmed Zhou Chengchen’s grades, but also indicated that Zhou Chengchen’s balanced scores implied she had good grades but no particularly outstanding subjects.

Such a person is suitable for the college entrance exam, having no weaknesses, but absolutely not suitable for competitions, having no standout points.

However, Zhou Chengchen still insisted. The homeroom teacher was speechless, sighed, "What competition do you want to participate in?"

"Math!"

The homeroom teacher: "...!!!"

He was a math teacher himself, and of course, he was aware of Zhou Chengchen’s level in math, which was decent, but far from the competition requirements.

But seeing her so determined, he couldn’t bring himself to discourage her, hoping she’d better understand the difficulty of the competition and withdraw herself.

"Come with me."
