422: Heaven And Earth

Heaven And Earth

Sheng Yue's eyes turned red as she said with all her might, "She didn't do better than me. Even Han Jingyu didn't do better than me this time!"0

Sheng An narrowed his eyes at Sheng Yue. Oh, it looked like Sheng Yue accepted the bet.

"Really?" Jiang Xinyi was overjoyed. It was a rare occasion…

The heavens had eyes. She had always been suppressed by Kang Weizhen, but at least her daughter had helped her win something this time.

Sheng Yue nodded firmly. "It's true, Mom. Don't you believe me?"

Sheng An pursed his lips and said nothing.

"That's great!" Jiang Xinyi was extremely excited. She turned around and left. It was uncertain what she was going to do.

Sheng An crossed his arms and looked at Sheng Yue. Since no one else was around, he decided to be frank. "Sheng Yue, is it really okay for you to lie like this?"

"It's none of your business! I'm confident! Unlike you, you're always taking last place. You're used to it by now, aren't you?" Sheng Yue was forced into a corner today and started to mock him.

"Oh." Sheng An shrugged and said nothing.

Sheng Yue was the only one left in the empty room. She was still a little nervous and worried. She was not as confident as she looked.

After some thought, she made a call to her form teacher, Li Mei. "Teacher Li, are the grade rankings out yet?"

"It's out." Li Mei was the only person who did not congratulate her.

Hearing Li Mei's words, Sheng Yue's face gradually turned from red to white. Her lip was almost bleeding as she was biting it.

Jiang Xinyi was busy making phone calls and boasting to some of the ladies.

The women in the upper class circle looked down on Second Madam Sheng who married into the Sheng family and had no real power. Therefore, those who befriended Jiang Xinyi were only wives of third-rate families in Yan City.

When these people heard this, they also humbly congratulated her.

Jiang Xinyi was very happy to hear their comments. After hanging up, she heard knocking on the door and saw Sheng Yue standing by the door.

Usually, she was a meticulous person and would definitely notice Sheng Yue's hesitant expression. However, she was in high spirits today, so her excitement was a little overwhelming.

She had been suppressed by Kang Weizhen for too long. Her studies, career, family, friends… None of them stood out. Now, she finally had a chance.

"Yueyue, you did well this time. Didn't you fancy a Hermes bag? We'll go buy it this afternoon."

Sheng Yue was stunned when she heard this. The last time she begged for this bag, her mother said that she didn't have money but she later went and bought a pair of sneakers that were more expensive than the bag she wanted to buy.

She had already begged for this bag a couple of times. This kind of temptation was really hard to resist…

"By the way, Yueyue, are you here to tell me something?"

"Ah…" Sheng Yue felt conflicted.

There was no use concealing the truth. She was afraid that she would be exposed. However, she convinced herself that she was not lying. Being first in the class was a huge improvement. It should be worthy of praise.

Moreover, given her mother's personality, she probably wouldn't go around spreading the news. She wouldn't intentionally emphasize that she surpassed Sheng Yang.

Her eyes sparkled as she hoped luck was on her side.

At this moment, a servant came over and said respectfully, "Madam, Young Master's teacher is here."

Hearing this, Jiang Xinyi felt a headache coming on. It seemed that Sheng An had caused trouble in school again or he wasn't studying hard and his grades were too poor. Would he be expelled this time?

Sigh, it was fortunate that Sheng Yue had surpassed Sheng Yang today. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to hold on.
