Zane hadn't even opened his mouth when she bolted.

As he watched her sprint away, a sly grin spread across Zane'’s face. In the past, seeing other women drool over

him made

him feel sick.

But now, seeing Elysia do the same, he actually felt good. He even felt nice to be wanted.

Alice saw Zane's sudden smile and was shocked like she'd seen a ghost. She thought, ‘Isn't Zane always stone-

faced? What's with this smile?”

On the way back, she let out a long sigh, thinking the car was finally going at a normal speed.

Earlier, it was like a snail's crawl. But she didn’t dare ask, afraid Elysia would think Zane was driving slowly on

purpose, not wanting to take her home.

After Elysia got home, she took a cold shower to calm down. She kept reminding herself in her head not to get

lost in

someone's looks.

Emma was in a great mood today. She just heard that Elysia fell asleep during the Language and Composition

test. If Elysia could sleep during a test where points were easy to score, it showed how bad she really was.

Emma figured if Elysia bombed Language and Composition, her other subjects couldn't be much better. The

chance to show Elysia up she'd been waiting for was finally coming, and she was happy about it.

Elysia changed into her pajamas and planned to type up the manuscript she'd been writing. She started writing

just for fun, but then she got more and more into it. So she wrote a little every day and had a bunch of words

now.

After copying all her handwritten notes to the computer, it was one in the morning. She found a website, made

an account. and picked the pen n“Nightwood.” Then she posted her story in chapters and went to bed.

The next morning at school, Elysia felt strange looks and heard quiet gossip.

“That's Elysia, the one who transferred to Class I. | heard she fell asleep during the Language and Composition

test.” “How did someone who sleeps during a test get into Class 1?”

“Who knows?!”

Elysia frowned at the gossip, thinking. ‘Bad news travels fast. Why do they have tto talk about me? Why not

use that tto improve their own grades? | don’t get it.

When she got to Class 1, the atmosphere was super tense. Most udents knew about her sleeping during the test

and were worried she'd bring the class average down. But after what happened last time, no one dared to mess

with her.

But Bianca couldn't take it anymore. As the leader

r of Class 1, she couldn't let anyone drag the class down. If someone did, she'd cut them out. She couldn't wait

to get Elysia out of Class 1.

She thought if she could get Elysia out before the monthly testults cout, Elysia’s scores wouldn't count

toward Class L's average. Then Class 1 could keep its honor and stay the best i the school.

“Why did you sleep during the test, Elysia? Bianca demanded.

Elysia frowned, thinking, ‘Does she have to control everything? Is she thinking straight? | sleep when | want. Do |

need her permission?

There’s no rule against sleeping during a test. Besides, | finished all the questions. | just didn’t write the essay. Is

it really that big of a deal?”

She started to seriously wonder if she was getting too much attention at school. Anything related to her was fair

gfor people to talk about.

Seeing Elysia not answering, Bianca thought she was guilty and felt smug. “Elysia, why don’t you just leave Class

1? To be honest, with your study habits, you really don’t fit in here.”

“Bianca Janssen, | think you crossed the line, Justin said, fixing his gaze on Bianca,

His tone was solid like he was laying down the law. “Elysia’s in our class. You're supposed to help her, instead of

kicking her out. That's what a good class leader does.”

Bianca was left speechless. She couldn't believe Justin was backing Elysia. He was usually so hands-off, not the

one to get in the middle of things. And now he was sticking up for Elysia, the one Bianca couldn't stand. It really

ticked her off.

Justin called Bianca by her full name, but he called Elysia just by her first name. It was clear who he was closer to

Bianca wondered if she was really that unlikable, even less likable than Elysia

She thought, “Why is Justin helping Elysia? He always looks down on people he thinks are beneath him. And

Elysia’s not even in the sleague as me. I'm a top student and the class leader. How can Elysia compare?

Why is Justin helping her?”

Bianca couldn't accept it. She had always liked Justin and tried to get closer to him by studying together, but he

always shot her down.

Seeing him do the sto others, she thought he was just naturally cold. But today, this cold person was

actually speaking up for someone else, and it left her feeling really upset.

Leon was also surprised. Justin taking the initiative to help someone was a first in his memory. It felt almost

surreal. Elysia glanced at Justin, thinking he was being pretty loyal today, But she didn’t understand why he had

started meddling again.

Robert watched the scene unfold, equally surprised that Justin would stick up for Elysia.

However, his impression of Elysia wasn't great. Ever since she had stared at him in Amour café, he had thought

of her as a bit of a flirt. Hearing more rumors about her later only worsened his opinion

Moreover, Emma once shared snegative things about her sister, which sent Robert's opinion of Elysia

plummeting even further.

Seeing Bianca confront Elysia, he didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. In fact, he thought Bianca was

doing a good job. Deep down, he looked down on Elysia as well.

Suppressing her jealousy, Bianca looked at justin and said, “Just as the class leader, | can’t just focus on her. |

can’t let one bad apple spoil the whole bunch!”

Hearing Bianca's words, Elysia frowned, shocked that she had called her a bad apple. She wasn’t going to take

that lying down

She looked at Bianca with a playful smile. “Bianca, if you callbad apple, then let's see if you dare to compete

with me.”

The classmates were all taken aback by Elysia’s words. She was actually challenging Bianca. They thought they

had misheard. Bianca was ranked in the top three of their grade; Elysia must have lost her mind to want to

compete with her.

Bianca thought, This is my chance!”

Her lips curled into a smirk as she asked, “Sure! What do we compete in?”

Elysia chuckled lightly. “Since you value academics so much, let's compete in that!”

“How do we do it?” Bianca asked, her body language showing her confidence.

“It’s simple. We'll have someone write a random question on the blackboard, any subject. We both answer it.

Whoever finishes correctly in the shortest twins. How about that? Do you dare?” Elysia said, her posture

relaxed but confident.
