The Mysterious Heiress: Researcher In Disguise-Novel2

Chapter 490: Shocking News: All Bigshots Have Gathered At No.1 High School In Yu City - 2

Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu went to the canteen to have their lunch after the school session had ended.

While Song Fang, Wang Yu, and a few students ordered a few cups of milk tea and sat around a table on the second floor.

Other than a few bowls of beef ball noodles, there were a few notebooks on the table filled with all sorts of equations and formulas. While slurping on their noodles, they read the notebooks with great diligence and effort.

Meanwhile, Fu Zhi was sitting at a table not far away from them. She was holding her phone and she was checking her WeChat and QQ messenger. She left the top button on her collar open, and one could see her fair skin underneath her cloth.

Wang Yu really admired Fu Zhi for her calmness. Unlike him, she was still able to keep a level head even though she was facing a great crisis right now. Wang Yu took a glance at Song Fang. He then took a deep breath to calm himself down and make himself look less smug about himself before saying, “I’ve been memorizing these 3 chapters of Physics formulas the entire morning and they have been ingrained deeply in my brain, so do you want to go through them again, Brother Fang? It can also help to familiarize ourselves with the formulas better.”

Song Fang nearly fainted when he heard what Wang Yu had said. Even though he had been a student for 9 years, memorizing the first two verses of Song for the Goose, the famous Tang poem was his maximum. These Physics formulas were like alien language to him, and there was no way he could memorize them.

Just when he was about to run away with his milk tea, Fu Zhi, who seemed to be able to read his mind, turned him around and forced him to sit beside her. Then, she said in a flat voice, “Try and recite some of the formulas to me. I want to see how terrible you are so that I can create a study plan for you today.”

Song Fang became speechless.

At the same time, Wang Yu opened his mouth and chimed in, “The formula I memorized is pretty simple. It only took me 10 or so minutes to get it into my head. Anyway, I will recite the first half of the sentence, and you’ll finish the second half.”

Song Fang swallowed a big gulp of saliva, and before he nodded, Wang Yu shouted, “The odd changes while the even remains constant!”

Fu Zhi’s hand came to a sudden stop.

‘The odd changes while the even remains constant?!’

Facing the question that troubled mankind for the longest time, Song Fang was stunned for a moment. After a short moment of confusion, he looked at Fu Zhi with teary eyes, his body began to shake, and he said proudly, “Daddy! I know how to answer this!”

He grabbed Wang Yu’s hand and shouted at the top of his lungs, “The odd changes while the even remains constant, the sign depends on the quadrant!”

Wang Yu did not expect Song Fang to know the answer at all. He froze for a short moment, and then his eyes glowed brightly as he replied, “The moon shines on my bed brightly!”

Song Fang, “We’re three, as my shadow shows up!”

As if he had found his long-lost brother, Wang Yu wrapped his arm around Song Fang’s neck tightly and continued, “Trimming a candle at the west window!”

“Just like the spring water in a river flowing east!” Song Fang replied confidently, his voice loud and firm.

Wang Yu jumped onto the bench and shouted, “Brother! I’ve never seen someone as strong as you! I, Wang Yu, declare you as the strongest!”

“You’re not bad as well, brother!” Song Fang said, bobbing his head up and down, “It’s just that I rarely show myself as I don’t want to get too much attention, but I think after this time, everybody will start to know about my great name!”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “If you don’t mind, we can form a study group. Together, I’m sure we will be able to conquer everything in the world!”

Wang Yu then replied, “Let’s do it!”

Meanwhile, after Su Xing had kept her book in her bag, she turned to Fu Zhi and finally asked the question that had been troubling her for a long time, “Zhizhi, are you sure our classmates are bad in studies not because something is wrong with their heads?”

Fu Zhi did not know what to say.

She looked at her milk tea and this was the first time she felt the milk tea in front of her was tasteless.

—

The lunch ended up with Song Fang and Wang Yu forming a group.

Fu Zhi and Su Xing went back to their class, while Song Fang and his gang went to Class 3 to borrow the notebook from them.

When they arrived at their class, half of the students had gathered around Yun Xiaoxiao’s desk.

“I heard that the game is initiated by Xiang Yusheng from Class 1. He bet 100,000 yuan on Class 1, and many year-one and year-two students have joined as well.”

“Who did they bet on?” A girl said as she put her nail polish into the drawer, “Is it our class?”

“Lin Juan, are you out of your mind? Although Lu Yubai will not take the examination this time, the differences between us and them are as clear as the sky. How is there any possibility that they would take our side?”

“Yeah. The betting odds are 5:15 now. It’s just too bad!”

Su Xing went forward and took a look. Then, she said, “It’s not too bad. Look, at least we still have a 5.”

Yun Xiaoxiao let out a sigh, “That’s Lu Yubai. He put 100,000 yuan on us. Oh yeah, Lu Yumo has chipped in 1 yuan as well.”

“1 yuan? Lu Yumo? Why is he so stingy?”

Yun Xiaoxiao did not know what to say as well.

“But… But…” She tried to find an excuse for Lu Yumo but to no avail. In the end, she just let out a sigh and said, “Yeah, he’s stingy.”

The students in Class 21 became even more pumped up in this kind of circumstances. They all felt that they had to prove to everyone that they were not a bunch of good-for-nothings.

With that thought in mind, they kept their phones away and took their books out to start doing revisions.

FU Zhi and Ye Jiu looked at each other.

Ye Jiu tapped on Yun Xiaoxiao’s desk and asked, “Xiang Yusheng is the banker? I thought his family’s company has gone bankrupt already? He still has so much money left?”

Yun Xiaoxiao thought for a while before replying, “Yeah. I guess so, and I heard that he will not stop raising his bet until he wins.”

The moment she finished speaking, Ye Jiu and Fu Zhi turned around and left Class 21.

Yun Xiaoxiao poked at Su Xing and asked, “Where are they going?”

Su Xing then replied, “I guess they are reporting to Director Liu? I don’t know. Fu Zhi doesn’t like people to gamble the most.”

*

In the meantime, it was a mess in Class 1.

Ye Jiu, and Fu Zhi, who disliked gamble the most, threw a bank card on Xiang Yusheng’s table respectively.

“There are one million in the card,” Ye Jiu said as he sipped on his milk tea, “It’s all the money I’ve got, and I’m going to bet on Class 21.”

Fu Zhi had just invested her money in the movie, so she did not have as much money as Ye Jiu. “I will bet 500,000 yuan on Class 21 too. Make sure you jot it down.”

Looking at the two bank cards on Xiang Yusheng’s desk, everyone in Class 1 fell silent as this was something that they did not expect at all.

The boy sitting in the center to help Xiang Yusheng record had never seen so much money in his life before. His hands were shaking profusely as he asked, “Both of you are going to bet on Class 21? Are you guys really not going to consider Class 1?”

They did not know why but the boy’s cheeks were getting redder and redder with every passing second. He was wiggling his body as he said to Ye Jiu, “Ye, Ye Jiu, I’m pretty strong. Can you pick me?”

Ye Jiu was dumbfounded. He looked at him as if he was looking at an alien.

‘You’re strong? Then?’

The commotion that they were making had drawn the other student’s attention. For a moment, everybody lifted their heads from the books in front of them as they looked at Xiang Yusheng and his gang.

“Do you have any idea what you’re talking about?” another student behind Xiang Yusheng jumped up and smacked the boy’s head. “They can spend their money however they want. It has nothing to do with you.”

He paused for a moment, looked at Fu Zhi, and continued sarcastically, “Fu Zhi is the goddess and the best student in our school. Who knows she might have a magic touch and she could turn over the tide and bring Class 21 to victory?”

At the same time, Xiang Yusheng took the 2 bank cards into his pocket. “Bet that has been placed is not refundable. Although this is just a small game, we won’t return your money to you if you lose.”

Ye Jiu said, “Don’t worry. We know the rules. As for you, you just need to make sure you get the money ready when the time comes.”

After that, he pulled Fu Zhi’s hand, and both of them went away.

Class 1 fell silent for a moment, and then everyone gasped in unison.

One and a half million? All of them could not believe that they really bet One and a half million on Class 21 to win.

Xiang Yusheng harrumphed, “Hmph! Just you wait! I’m sure they will cry in front of us when they lose!”

Then, he turned around and said to his classmate triumphantly, “You guys can start thinking about what you want to eat after the final examination. I’m going to treat all of you to a meal!”

Everyone in Class 1 cheered happily when they heard what Xiang Yusheng had said. Those who still had not joined the game hastily placed bets on Class 1 as well and they said to Xiang Yusheng, “This is great! We’re going to win big this time!”

The news of Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu placing bets on Class 21 soon spread across the school.

“Who? Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu bet 15 million yuan on Class 21? Are they nuts?”

“Well, they are rich, and they have the right to use their money as they wish.”

—

It was not long before the students in Class 21 heard about the news.

If they lost the bet, Fu Zhi had to leave No.1 High School. This was the worst-case scenario, but things were slightly different when 1.5 million came into play.

“Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu must be doing this for us. They did not want us to feel too bad about ourselves, so they used their money to root for us,” Yun Xiaoxiao said.

Everyone felt she was right. They then picked up their pace and worked even harder as they felt they should not let Fu Zhi and Ye Jiu down.

When Zhou Zihuai went in front of the class to start his lecture on electromagnetism, he asked, “Where are Song Fang and Wang Yu? Didn’t they go to borrow the language notes from Class 3? It has been 20 minutes, so why are they still not back yet?”

Fu Zhi and Zhou Zihuai were the best students with the best academic performance in Class 21. However, the former did not like taking notes, while the latter only took notes occasionally.

Su Xing and Yun Xiaoxiao looked at each other and shook their heads.

Just when all of them were wondering where Song Fang had been, a loud “thud” erupted and Song Fang barged into the class.

Yun Xiaoxiao’s eyes glowed up and she hastily went up to him, “How is it, Brother Fang? Did you get the notes from them?”

Song Fang did not say anything in return. He kept his head low and his eyes were red around the rims. Just a bad hunch rose in Yun Xiaoxiao’s heart, Wang Yu chimed in, “No good. They refuse to lend the notes to us!”

“What? Did you not tell them that it’s Ms. Zhang who asked us to borrow the notes from them? Are they going to use the notes? Did you guys tell them that we’ll just borrow for ten minutes while they’re in another class, and we’ll be able to return them afterward?”

Wang Yu shook his head, “Yes, that’s what we told them as well, but they said no! Not only Class 3, but the other classes also refused to lend their notes to us as well. Other than Class 19 and Class 20, whose notes are basically unreadable, the rest of the classes just slammed their doors at our faces!”

Everyone in Class 21 was stunned.

How was that possible?

“Why did they refuse to lend the notes to us?” Yun Xiaoxiao asked, disbelief accentuating her voice.

“Maybe someone is threatening them?” Su Xing added.

“I’m sure that must be it. It must be Class 1 that warned them and told them that they must not help us, or they are not going to share the exercise books that they got from He Min and Bai Ji with them!”

“Putting everything aside, whenever the boys in Class 3 were bullied by other students from other schools, it’s Brother Fang who stepped forward and helped them. How could they forget all of those and betray us just because of some exercise books?”

“Does Class 1 really want us dead so much?”

The rest of the students did not know what they should do as well.

The questions set by Bai Ji and He Min were one of the hardest and trickiest, so their exercise books were something very precious to students like them. If they could get their hands on their exercise books, they would be able to score very well in the examination. Therefore, the students from Class 21 could understand why the rest of the classes would choose to side with Class 1.

“I will ask my friends from other schools and see if he can help us or not,” Song Fang said, his voice hoarse.

“I will go back and organize my notes again. But it’s going to take a lot of time and we don’t have much time left…” Yun Xiaoxiao said as she pulled her books out of her drawer. She had been holding her tears ever since she got the news, and after she saw the pile of books in front of her, she could not hold herself anymore and dissolved into tears.

“They are so mean! How could Class 1 do something like this to us?” Yun Xiaoxiao cried.

“We just want to lend some notes. What’s wrong with that? They already have the best resources and learning materials, so why must they do this to us?”

Su Xing approached Yun Xiaoxiao and wrapped her arm around her shoulder, “My parents have some friends in the capital. Maybe I can ask them for help, so stop crying.”

At the same time, when Fu Zhi heard their conversation, she pulled her earphone down and said plainly, “It’s just an exercise book.” action

Yun Xiaoxiao could not hear Fu Zhi well since she had cried too loudly. She turned her head over to look at Fu Zhi and asked, “What?”

“Bai Ji is going to set the questions for the college entrance examination, so supposedly he can’t give any tutorial class right now. I will call Chen Xin and He Min to give you guys a tutorial class.”

Yun Xiaoxiao was stunned. She thought her ears had failed her again, so she asked, “Can you repeat what you’ve just said again, Sister Zhi?”

Everyone turned to look at Fu Zhi. Well, although they had full faith in Fu Zhi, they found it hard to believe the thing she had just said.

Initially, Fu Zhi wanted to give them a lecture class herself, but it seemed to her that they liked Bai Ji and He Min more.

Therefore, she walked out of her classroom with her phone in her hand and made a call through WeChat.
