Report

That's it? What happened to her?

Gu Xi looked at the two people in front of her as if she was looking at a lunatic. Lin Meixin looked as if she had suffered a great grievance, while Gao Zifan looked as if he was going to get back at her for what she had done.

Gu Xi looked away speechlessly and pulled Gu Chenyi aside, who almost laughed out of anger.

She wondered if it was contagious.

On the other side, seeing that Gu Xi didn't say anything, Lin Anxin was secretly dissatisfied. However, she still maintained her innocent and helpless expression on her face.

"That's right, I'm just here to say hello out of curiosity."

"But why are you here, Senior Sister?" Lin Anxin purposely emphasized the word 'senior', as if she wanted to tell the people around her that her relationship with Gu Xi was just that they used to be in the same school.

Lin Anxin then pretended to be surprised. "Don't tell me you're representing A University Affiliated to Renmin High School to participate in this year's Physics League?!"

"That's quite amazing. Last year, Senior Sister was representing Liming, but this year, she's from A University Affiliated to Renmin High School."

Was Lin Anxin trying to 'help' her attract hatred?

She wanted Liming's people to think that she had betrayed Liming, and at the same time, she wanted to sow discord between her and A University Affiliated to Renmin High School?

Gu Xi laughed in her heart. Did Lin Anxin treat the Physics League as child's play?

Sure enough, when Lin Anxin said this, the people from the two schools looked at Gu Xi in surprise. However, the people from A University Affiliated to Renmin High School quickly calmed down.

"Senior Gu Xi transferred to our Renmin High School. Of course, she's representing our school. Don't tell me she's representing Liming?" Yang Mengmeng rolled her eyes at Lin Anxin and said.

The people around them nodded. The school chose who to participate in the Physics League based on their abilities.

"What's wrong? Are top students not allowed to transfer schools?"

"That's right. If you have any questions, we'll meet in the arena. Can you not come here at this time to make your presence known?"

Lin Anxin was dissatisfied with the attitude of the people from A University's affiliated high school. This was not the effect she wanted!

However, Lin Anxin also realized that these straight-A students were not as gullible as the other students in Liming.

Secretly clenching his fists, Lin Anxin raised his chin and looked at Yang Mengmeng, who was the first to speak. He no longer pretended to be "kind" and retorted, "I'm just worried about you guys."

"Worried? Are you trying to make a joke out of me? The third place is worried about the first place? "Yang Mengmeng mocked.

Lin Anxin was a little embarrassed, but he continued, "So what if you're third? As far as I know, in the first four rounds of the Physics League last year, Liming's score was higher than yours, right? "

As she spoke, Lin Anxin looked at Gu Xi's direction and said, "If it wasn't for Brother Fan being held back by someone in the last round, would Fu Zhong still be in the first round?"

Lin Anxin's first half was not wrong. In the first four rounds of the Physics League last year, Liming and Affiliated High's total score were about the same. Liming's score was even higher by 2 points.

In the end, Liming suffered a setback in the last round of the Physics League. Their total score dropped to third place.

The last round of the Physics League was represented by Gu Xi and Gao Zifan.

However, Lin Anxin was wrong about one thing. The one holding them back was not Gu Xi, but Gao Zifan.

According to the rules of the Physics League, each school had to send two people to participate in the last round of the Physics League. The Physics League team would provide each school with a set of 400 questions, and the two students would have to complete it together.

In the end, the combined score of the two students would be the final score of the competition.

Under normal circumstances, the two people working together would either do half of the questions, or they would split the four subjects into two and choose the two subjects that they were good at.

In the end, she didn't know what Gao Zifan was thinking. He actually did the exact same question as her.

At that time, even the teacher in charge of marking the papers was dumbfounded. He wondered if Liming High had not told these two students the rules of the Physics League.

If the two of them did the same question, only one score would be recorded. If there was a mistake, the corresponding score would be deducted.

As a result, in the last round of the Physics League, not only did Gu Xi's team not get more points, but Gao Zifan's mistake rate was too high, causing their overall score to be terrible.

Because it was a team competition, the Physics League team would not publicly announce everyone's score. They would only announce the school's total score. Because of this, the Physics League team only knew that Liming had failed, but they did not know who was the one holding them back.

The reason why Gu Xi knew her score was because the total score was publicly announced. The teacher in charge of Liming High School could not believe the scores, so he brought Gao Zifan and Gu Xi to the Physics League team to request for their scores to be checked.

In the end, the teacher was dumbfounded. Of the two students from their school, one had the highest score, while the other had the lowest score.

This was not a big deal, but the most infuriating thing was that these two students actually did the same question.

Not only was Gao Zifan criticized, but Gu Xi was also criticized. The reason was that they did not work together.

After the incident, it was already an embarrassing matter, so the school naturally did not want to talk about it anymore. The teacher also did not mention the two students' scores.

Therefore, not many people knew about this matter. Even if they knew a little, most of them would not think that Gao Zifan was holding Gu Xi back.

As for Lin Anxin, she heard about it from Gao Zifan.

When the Gao family visited the Lin family, they happened to talk about the competition. Gao Zifan was in a bad mood at that time, and he even said that it was all Gu Xi's fault.

Lin Anxin looked at Gu Xi with disdain, then looked at everyone and said, "But it's all good now. Senior went to the High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China. Now, you should be the ones worrying."

When they heard Lin Anxin's words, everyone was shocked. They looked at Gu Xi, then looked at Gao Zifan, as if they wanted to verify it.

Under everyone's gaze, Gao Zifan's face stiffened slightly.

— During last year's competition, Gao Zifan was very dissatisfied that the school had arranged for him to be in the same group as Gu Xi.

First of all, Gao Zifan did not like Gu Xi. In his eyes, Lin Anxin was his innocent and lovable younger sister, while Lin Xi was a jealous and vengeful person who would do anything to snatch her younger sister's things.

Secondly, Gu Xi was only in the first grade at that time, so Gao Zifan did not believe in her ability at all. Also, Lin Anxin had told him that Gu Xi often cheated to get high marks in elementary school.

It was also because of this distrust that Gao Zifan chose to do the same questions as Gu Xi during the competition. At that time, even if he was held back and got low marks, he could still prove that it was Gu Xi's fault.

But what he didn't expect was that even though the teacher brought them to check their scores, Gu Xi's score was actually higher than his!

Gao Zifan tried his best to hide the awkwardness on his face.

However, Gu Xi, who was also involved in this, was very calm.

It was as if Lin Anxin and Gao Zifan did not exist in front of them. Gu Xi calmly pulled Gu Chenyi, who was beside him, to finish his food.

At the same time, he shared half of the fried chicken on his plate with Gu Chenyi — this person's eyes were shining as he looked at the fried chicken.

At the side, Gu Chenyi originally wanted to get rid of this group of idiots in front of him, but Gu Xi stopped him, so he could only give up.

Looking at Gu Xi, who was eating leisurely, Gu Chenyi's eyes shone brightly. He had a feeling that Xixi was holding back a big move. He would wait and see.

After all, no one in the Gu Family was a person who would suffer losses.



While everyone's attention was on Gao Zifan, Sheng Xiuyan's gaze fell on Gu Xi. It was as if he had thought of something, and his gaze deepened.

Sheng Xiuyan remembered that he seemed to have seen Gu Xi in last year's competition. At the awards ceremony, the people from Liming High School stood in the third position on the left. At that time, Gu Xi stood at the back of the crowd, as if he was invisible.

At that time, Sheng Xiuyan did not pay much attention to the other schools. However, now that he thought about it, it was obvious that Gao Zifan had deliberately led the other participants to ostracize Gu Xi.

Those who did not know the truth would think that Gu Xi was a hindrance to the team.

However, was that really the case?

Sheng Xiuyan suddenly stood up and walked over to Gao Zifan and the others.

"Liming? Third place last year? "

"Yes," Gao Zifan replied. His voice was a little tense.

He knew that Sheng Xiuyan was a legend in A University's affiliated high school. He was also a legend in the eyes of many top students.

Gao Zifan was already considered a "legend" in Liming. He had a good family background, good looks, and good grades. However, in front of Sheng Xiuyan, he was nothing.

This was Gao Zifan's first time speaking to this legend face to face. Sheng Xiuyan looked casual, but he gave people an inexplicable sense of pressure.

"So you're saying that you lost to us because someone dragged you down?" Sheng Xiuyan continued to ask.

The people from A University's affiliated high school did not quite agree with Sheng Xiuyan's words. They won first place because of their ability, okay?

In the face of Sheng Xiuyan's question, Gao Zifan became even more nervous.

"During last year's competition, I was indeed influenced by Lin Xi," Gao Zifan said vaguely.

Gao Zifan did not think that this was a lie. He had chosen the same questions as Gu Xi because he did not trust him. During the competition, he had clearly chosen the right questions. However, when he saw that Gu Xi had the same questions as him, Gao Zifan subconsciously felt that he had made a mistake and changed to another question.

Therefore, if Gu Xi's presence did not affect him, he would not have performed so poorly.

Gao Zifan's words could be considered as an answer to Sheng Xiuyan's question. It also indirectly told the Da family that Gu Xi had indeed dragged him down.

At this moment, Sheng Xiuyan suddenly laughed. He looked at Gao Zifan with a hint of mockery in his eyes and said coldly, "In that case, I should be thanking you. You gave us first place even though you got a low score."

As soon as Sheng Xiuyan said this, everyone was stunned. What was going on? Gao Zifan said that Gu Xi had dragged him down, but Sheng Xiuyan was thanking Gao Zifan?!

"What do you mean?" Gao Zifan's face turned cold. His hands in his pockets were trembling.

"It literally means that." Compared to Gao Zifan's ability, Sheng Xiuyan was more willing to believe in Gu Xi's ability.

However, in the next second, Sheng Xiuyan quickly thought of another matter.

— — In last year's competition, Sheng Xiuyan originally thought that he would get the highest score. However, after his homeroom teacher asked around, he found out that the highest score on a single answer sheet was from Li Ming. Furthermore, Li Ming had scored a full 10 points higher than him. In other words, Li Ming had answered 10 more questions.

Since this person was not Gao Zifan, then it could only be Gu Xi.

In that case, this person did not just beat him once, but twice?!

Sheng Xiuyan's gaze shifted to Gu Xi, who was still leisurely eating breakfast. He suddenly felt a little depressed. What was going on?

At this moment, he saw that Gu Xi had finally finished eating. She took the juice that Gu Chenyi handed to her and drank it. Then, she stood up from the chair.

Gu Xi looked directly at Gao Zifan and Lin Anxin and finally said, "After talking for so long, you pretended to meet me by chance and pretended to be kind. Aren't you trying to talk about how you framed me for cheating in school? Don't beat around the bush, I'll help you say it."

Gu Shao had previously told Gu Xi that he had helped her solve the problem in Li Ming. She did not have to worry about anything anymore. Therefore, Gu Xi would not be afraid anymore.

Sure enough, when Gu Xi said this, the people in Li Ming did not refute. The school had publicly refuted the rumors. They also knew that they had misunderstood Gu Xi previously. However, the person who framed Gu Xi was Lin Anxin? 'Really?'

Everyone looked at Lin Meixin with a meaningful gaze.

"Nonsense, do you have any evidence?" Lin Anxin panicked.

"There's no evidence." Gu Xili said confidently.

Back then, the Lin family had pressured the school to erase all the evidence.

"However, no evidence does not prevent me from confirming that it was you."

"You —!"

Looking at Gu Xi's posture, Gu Chenyi, who was at the side, tried his best to hold back his laughter. Xixi's posture of 'there's no reason, there's no need for reason, what I'm saying is reason' was simply comparable to Grandpa's.

"Also, you want to say that I'm not good enough and that I didn't do well in last year's competition, so I caused Li Ming to lose. This year, you want to cause trouble for A University's affiliated high school, right?"

"Then I'm sorry, but the truth will disappoint you. If it wasn't Gao Zifan last year, it would have been someone else. Oh, even if it was you, it would have been fine. We wouldn't have gotten third place. "At the very least, we would have gotten second place.

"You're lying!" Lin Meixin retorted loudly. She then glared at Gu Xi. "No one knows how many points there will be in the competition. You can say whatever you want right now."

"However, there should be a limit to lying. You said that Brother Zifan was dragging you down? Hmph, what a joke! "Lin Anxin sneered and said," Who do you think will believe you? "

Indeed, between Gao Zifan and Gu Xi, Li Ming's people were more willing to believe Gao Zifan.

After all, it would be too unrealistic to say that Gao Zifan was dragging Gu Xi down.



Gu Xi did not waste time arguing. He raised his head and smiled calmly at them. "Facts speak louder than words."

"Since you think Gao Zifan is very good, let's have a competition." After a pause, Gu Xi said, "We'll compete with the score of the competition this time."

Gu Xi's tone was calm and the confidence in his eyes made him look as if he was glowing.

Gu Chenyi did not do anything at this time. He secretly took a photo and sent it to the Gu family's group chat with the caption, "Xixi's scene of arguing with someone."

Gu Xi was handsome and cool in the photo.

[What's going on?] Gu Yanlin asked in the group chat.

Others followed suit and asked in the group chat.

Gu Chenyi explained: [Xixi's former school had a few brainless idiots who were looking for trouble with Xixi. They even wanted to say that Xixi's grades were not good. In the end, Xixi retorted and asked the other party to compete with her.]

Gu Chenyi said this because he wanted his family to see how handsome Gu Xi was. However, the Gu family's attention did not seem to be on this.

[Head of the Gu family: Which idiot bullied my granddaughter?!]

[Gu Feng: Which family?]

[Gu Linzi: Xixi was bullied. What are you doing?]

[Xiao: What's the use of letting you go?]

Even Gu Xuan, who was in D Country, sent a message: [Why didn't you protect Xixi?]

Gu Chenyi: "…" He wanted to, but there was no use for him at all.

Gu Chenyi thought about it and replied: [It's the Lin family that Xixi used to be in. There's also the Gao family. They should be in contact with the Lin family.]

[Gu Feng: Got it.]

The Gu family's Gu Uncle was ruthless and did not speak much.



On the other side.

In the face of Gu Xi's direct declaration of war, Li Ming and the others were slightly shocked.

Lin Anxin looked at Gu Xi strangely. She did not believe that Gu Xi's score would be better than Gao Zifan's. However, the confidence on Gu Xi's face made her feel inexplicably unsure.

"What if you cheat again? Besides, there's Xiu Shen from A University's affiliated high school next to you this time. If the two of you answer the questions together, who knows if he will help you and say that his score is yours? "Lin Anxin said unhappily. Her eyes flashed with hatred.

The handsome boy next to Gu Xi was obviously trying to protect Gu Xi. Although Sheng Xiuyan's words were mainly directed at Gao Zifan, she seemed to be helping Gu Xi either intentionally or unintentionally. In addition, the group of people from A University's affiliated high school still seemed to believe Gu Xi after hearing her words.

Why?!

Why is Gu Xi so popular when he goes to another school?!

Lin Anxin's words were really laughable. Gu Xi looked at her and said, "There's no cheating in this level of competition. Once the competition is over, we'll check the scores together. This way, you don't have to worry anymore."

Faced with Gu Xi's gaze, Gao Zi Fan's expression darkened. He gritted his teeth, but in the end, he still agreed. "Fine, let's do it."

Last time, he had performed abnormally because he had been affected. Moreover, Gu Xi had gotten the highest score because of luck. He didn't believe that a second-year student would be able to compete with him, a third-year student.

"Then it's settled." Gu Xi smiled and hid the slyness in her eyes. "If you lose, please go to the school forum and publicly apologize to me. Also, please don't come to my face and disgust me."

"You!" Lin Anxin glared at Gu Xi. "We can't lose. You should worry about yourself."

"If you lose, not only do you have to apologize to me and Brother Zifan, I also want you to go to A University's school forum and admit that you cheated!" Lin Anxin had already planned it out. Once Gu Xi admitted to cheating on the school forum, she would post all of Gu Xi's dark history in Liming to A University's school forum. Someone would definitely believe it. By then, Gu Xi would be hated by everyone, just like how he was in Liming.

"I won't lose." Gu Xi's straightforward words were as if she was stating a fact.

Her attitude once again made the people around her think that she was crazy.

— —

Watching Gao Zifan, Lin Anxin, and the others leave, Gu Xi raised her eyebrows. "Let's wait and see."

However, before she could be smug for two seconds, Gu Chenyi blocked her view with his hand. "It's contagious if you look at too much idiocy."

The Lin family and the Gao family would help her teach them a lesson.

Gu Xi sneered.

"The car is here. Let's go." From this window seat, they could indeed see when the car downstairs would arrive.

They set off together.

— —

The first round of the day was mathematics. It happened that Gu Xi, Gu Chenyi, and Sheng Xiuyan were participating.

"Did you bring your draft paper and pen?" Before getting into the car, Gu Xi asked Gu Chenyi worriedly.

"Yes."

How worried was Xixi about him?

Gu Chenyi silently complained. It was all because he was too careless the second time they met.

Looking at Gu Chenyi's expression, Gu Xi couldn't help but smile. She patted his shoulder and said, "Good luck."

"Don't worry." Gu Chenyi said with a hint of seriousness in his eyes.

The main reason he came to participate in the competition was to improve Xixi's impression of him. He didn't care about answering questions.

Therefore, Gu Chenyi originally wanted to take the exam casually. However, things were different now. He was serious.

He wanted to let those two idiots, Li Ming and Sheng Xiuyan, see what it meant to be crushed.

After saying that, Gu Chenyi glanced at Sheng Xiuyan. "And you, do your best." Don't be a burden to Xixi.

Sheng Xiuyan looked up. "Are you threatening me?"

Gu Chenyi: "No, I'm encouraging you."

Sheng Xiuyan: Haha.
