Get lost!

Li Consortium

"Good morning Chairman", the secretaries greeted as Li Min walked towards his private elevator.

" Uhmmm....boss, Ms. Tang is here to see you", someone said with a smile.

"Okay", he said with a cold face and entered his office.

" Brother Min"

"Xiao Ning? What are you doing here?", Li Min asked with a frown.

" Old Madam asked me to bring breakfast for you", she said with a smile.

"Okay", Li Min said

" What are you still waiting for?", Li Min asked.

"To accompany you", Xiao Ning said with a smile.

" Get lost"

"Brother Min...."

"What?", Li Min asked angrily

" I think we should reconsider the engagement ", she said

" I have a girlfriend now and I don't need to reconsider anything"

"Girlfriend? Brother Min, is she staying abroad?"

"No"

"You just came back, how did you have time to date"

"It's none of your business"

"Brother Min...", Xiao Ning said with tears in her eyes.

" Does she love you?"

Li Min smiled and said,"No"

"Why are you with her?", she asked again

" Because she'll be my future wife"

"I can also be your future wife"

"Yes....", Li Min said with a sigh

Xiao Ning jumped up and wanted to talk but Li Min continued," But I don't like you"

"Brother Min"

"Leave!", he said with an angry face.

When Mr. Ling stepped into the classroom, the bell for the first class had yet to ring.

He placed the thick stack of papers on the rostrum and said, "Subject rep, come distribute the papers!"

The entire classroom instantly fell silent. Qing Mian sat in the last row and watched as her classmates all stretched out their necks. As the subject representative distributed the examination scripts, intermittent sounds of gasp and sighs could be heard from every corner of the room.

The subject representative, Zhou Zhen, was studious and frail-looking. He wore a pair of thick glasses. He moved toward Qing Qin's table and passed her script over.

Someone asked curiously, "How many marks?"

Checking her score, Qing Qin answered in a light-hearted and proud tone, "130 marks."

"The questions were so hard, yet you actually scored so highly?"

She feigned humbleness. "Nah. I'm still lacking when compared to Lu Rui."

"How can you compare yourself to Lu Rui? He has been receiving uncountable awards from mathematics competitions since he was young! Still, you and he are truly a match made in heaven. Both of you have such good grades..."

Qing Qin seemed accustomed to the surrounding gasps and praises. She lifted her chin and subconsciously peered at the last row.

She asked hypocritically, "Zhou Zhen, hurry and see what Qing Mian scored, alright?"

Zhou Zhen flipped through the papers and did not spot Qing Mian's. Instead, he saw Lu Rui's first and hurriedly picked it out. He was about to pass it to Lu Rui when...

On the rostrum, Mr. Ling said, "For this mathematics paper, the only full-marks student in the entire level is in our class!"

"Wow!"

"Isn't Lu Rui too incredible?"

While everyone was gushing, Lu Rui silently sighed because he knew it was either Xue Xi or Qing Mian.

During the examination yesterday, there were quite a few that he was unsure about. Looks like I did it all correctly...

"Congratulations, Lu Rui! You are amazing!"

Qing Qin's voice rang beside him.

He looked up at her with a smile.

When he returned home yesterday and was told about the probability of getting engaged to Qing Mian, he had let out a breath of relief. For a person like him, only the best and most outstanding girl could be matched!

130 marks... Mhm, it hits the passing mark!

At this moment, Zhou Zhen landed his paper on his table right in front of him.

He instinctively looked at the scores and his smile froze. 138? What's wrong? Did I receive the wrong paper?

While everyone was still confused, Mr. Ling sucked in a deep breath and said the following, "Let us congratulate student Qing Mian! Her foundations in mathematics are very solid. Even though the questions this time around were exceptionally hard, her results are also totally unexpected! It is a whole 12 marks higher than the third place, Lu Rui!"

In the next instant, it felt as if a pause button had been pressed on the entire classroom. A perfect silence prevailed!

After a full two seconds, everyone then turned to look at the girl in the last row in unison.

Qing Qin widened his eyes in shock and disbelief. When she turned back to look at the girl, she saw her slowly look up. Her eyes started to focus on her. A meaningful smile slowly crept up her lips as she silently mouthed the words, "Still manageable."

Qing Qin's cheeks instantly blazed, as though someone had given her a tight slap!

Similarly, Zhou Zen also froze and all he could think of was: How can this be?! How can it be?!

Someone asked," But who's the second place?"

"It's Xue Xi, she scored 145", Zhou Zhen said

" Isn't she Qing Mian's friend?", someone asked.

"Yes, I am her best friend"

....

7:00 PM, the car slowly drove through the Qing family's gates.

Qing Mian moved to open the door the moment the car stopped, but a piercing voice sounded. "Are you very happy?"

She paused, only to see that Qing Qin's eyes were red and brimming with tears. The latter shouted, "You pretended to be a dimwit to see me make a fool out of myself. Are you satisfied now?"

Qing Mian was taken aback.

Is this person's brain fine?

Before Qing Mian could reply, Qing Qin had already alighted from the car and ran into the mansion.

When Qing Mian alighted and followed her path into the living room, she immediately heard Ding Xian's anxious voice. "Qinqin, what's the matter?"

Not speaking a word, Qing Qin ran upstairs and locked herself in her room.

Ding Xian was anxiously and worriedly circling outside her door. "What happened? Why are you suddenly crying..."

"Oh, right. The results are out today. Did Qing Mian bully you out of jealousy because you scored better than she did?"

Qing Mian, who had just walked in: "..."

"What did you do to my daughter?", Ding Xian asked angrily.

" Nothing", Qing Mian said and went upstairs.
