"The Ye Family must really be on fire," the second aunt finally regained her composure after a moment. She quickly took out her cell phone, "This is such a great joy, I’ll help you contact our mother’s side — the newspapers, oh, our family is going to be famous."
Mother Ye was naturally thrilled, her hands shaking.
As she was about to call relatives to share the good news, she suddenly remembered something.
The cell phone clattered to the floor.
She seemed to have... fallen out with Shaohua a few days ago over something to do with Ye Jinlan.
The second aunt didn’t know about this, but the Tian Family did. After their initial excitement, they exchanged glances, then left the Ye mansion.
"Who would have thought that the most promising one from the Ye Family would be the least noticeable Shaohua," the matriarch of the Tian Family said with a complex expression after they had left the Ye mansion.
After speaking, she looked at Tian Yu, "Back then..."
She didn’t finish her sentence and just sighed.
Tian Yu was also feeling very complicated, even a bit lost. He was even beginning to doubt himself.
He knew how difficult math problems could be; the final question was harder than the ones he had during the math competition. He had absolutely no clue — out of the four sub-questions, he had only managed to get the first one right.
Scoring 131 in math meant he didn’t make mistakes in the other questions; it was only the last one that he got wrong.
He had thought his math score was already very good, but he hadn’t expected Shaohua...
A full score of 150 points.
Thinking back to how he had mocked her for not understanding competitions, not knowing about Professor Mo... even without Shaohua in front of him, Tian Yu wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

In the end, both the provincial and city media reported on Shaohua.
But for some reason, the Ye Family members were not interviewed; it was Shaohua’s classmates and teachers, and then Shaohua herself.
Now, the "Number One Scholar Beauty Top Student" trending topic on Weibo had completely exploded.
"She’s good-looking and so smart; I can’t say anymore, my mom is making me kneel on the keyboard."
"757 points? Full marks in math? Does she even have a human brain?!"
"What happened to the idea that all top students are nerdy?!"
"God: She’s paid money.
Test question: Got it!"
"..."
Old Master Yun had retired and, with the guidance of the younger generation at home, had learned to surf the internet.
The "Number One Scholar Beauty Top Student" topic was too hot, primarily because the abnormal question had caused disbelief among netizens, going viral on all web pages.
As soon as he clicked into an app, he saw this headline.
"Number One Scholar?" Old Master Yun clicked in, saw the score of 757 points, then scrolled to the very bottom of the press release.
He almost fell to the ground.
The people in Shaohua’s class group were also buzzing with these messages. free𝑤ebnovel.com
Thinking back on her words now, it was really...
She thought about how relatives and classmates who typically didn’t contact her, knowing she was Shaohua’s friend, had all called to ask about Shaohua... In her heart, Song Yi truly regretted ’bleeding’.
Shaohua had taken off the glasses she had given her; she probably didn’t need her as a friend anymore...

As for those who regretted the most, it was still Shaohua’s parents.
Whenever relatives came in the past, they would catch Ye Jinlan and Ye Fan and praise them profusely.
Now things were different.
When Shaohua’s grandmother heard that her Number One Scholar granddaughter had been chased away by Mother Ye, she made a special trip to the city. She scolded her every day, "This is the room you gave her to stay in? What kind of mother are you? The chicken coop back home is even bigger than where Shaohua lived! You really are ... How could our Ye Family have a daughter-in-law like you!"
Without comparison, there’s no hurt. Grandmother Ye had known about Father Ye and Mother Ye’s favoritism, but she hadn’t intervened.
Now that she knew about Shaohua’s achievements that had stunned the entire town, she couldn’t stay calm, and her attitude towards Jinlan changed for the worse.
Who didn’t know that the reason Mother Ye treated Shaohua that way was entirely because of Jinlan?
Mother Ye didn’t want to stay at home and went to work at the company.
Jinlan didn’t want to be scolded by Grandmother Ye either, so she didn’t go home and went to the company to ask Mother Ye for money instead.
Just as she was about to leave, two figures approached from not far away.
Suddenly, Mother Ye pointed ahead and said, "Jinlan, look, isn’t that your sister? Is the man with her her boyfriend?"
