"Some people say that grapes are sour when they can't eat them, so they should prepare to buy a better toilet brush. After all, there are many toilets,

" Zhao Xiaolei said in a cryptic tone.

n

"Damn it! Zhao Xiaolei, you're not better than me, how dare you say such things! Let's compete if you dare!

"

nSun Hui was unconvinced.

n

"I wouldn't dare to compare myself to you. I wouldn't be able to shoulder the responsibility if the toilets wear you out.

"

nZhao Xiaolei smiled.

nShe didn't expect her deskmate to be so capable despite her quiet appearance.

n

"You… You…

"

nSun Hui was furious.

n

"You what? You should study well,

" Zhao Xiaolei continued.

n

"Lan Anran, you were just lucky this time. Who knows if you cheated or not?

" Lin Cheng interrupted.

n

"Lin Cheng, what do you mean? Why don't you try your luck? You're the kind of person who doesn't like others to do well,

" Zhao Xiaolei said to Lin Cheng as she suddenly became tough.

nEveryone took a deep breath. This chatterbox was provoking the class leader. Was she having an episode?

n

"Zhao Xiaolei, how dare you talk back to me?

"

nLin Cheng lost his temper and kicked the table.

nNo one in the class dared to speak to him like this.

n

"You're not my dad, why wouldn't I dare? Don't forget, the Lin Family and the Zhao Family are collaborating. If you dare to provoke me, I'll make my dad withdraw his investments and the Lin Family will go bankrupt!

"

nZhao Xiaolei's tough tone was supported by her family. Recently, the Zhao Family had made a lot of money and the Lin Family had even come to fawn over them. Who would she be afraid of?

n

"The Zhao Family can try if they dare!

"

nLin Cheng hated threats. Was he forcing her? Zhao Xiaolei swallowed hard.

n

"Class is starting!

"

nLi Yue walked in just in time.

nZhao Xiaolei felt a sigh of relief and thanked her teacher for saving her life.

n

"Lin Cheng, go back to your desk and sit properly! I have something to say,

" Li Yue said from the front.

n

"Everyone has seen their results. This time, Lan Anran came first place in the entire district. Due to the large number of people doing the interviews, there will be three rounds. Lan Anran will enter the finals as she had a perfect score. This is a new rule this year: she can temporarily skip the competition, but you students will have to work hard.

"

nThis time, Li Yue had a whole new level of respect for Lan Anran. She originally thought that Lan Anran was sleeping in the examination room because she didn't know how to answer the questions, but unexpectedly, she was so good that she came in first place. Now that all the teachers were envious of her for having such a good student, she felt very proud.

n

"Teacher, this isn't fair, I object!

"

nSun Hui was the first to raise her hand in objection. Why did they have to fight their way into the finals one round after another while Lan Anran could skip on through?

n

"Sun Hui, these are the rules. There are new rules every year and I can't control them. But don't worry, the finals will consist of four people. You still have a chance.

"

nLi Yue smiled.

nSun Hui sat down angrily and thought, Lan Anran, why is your luck so good?

nLin Cheng was unconvinced. Lan Anran must have gotten in through the back door. It wasn't fair at all, but he couldn't say anything. After all, he didn't do well this time.

nLan Anran didn't pay attention to the entire lesson as her thoughts were on the hospital. She wondered how her mother was.

nDuring the last class, the bell rang and Lan Anran packed her bag, preparing to leave.

n

"Anran, it's Saturday tomorrow, are you going to play?

" Zhao Xiaolei asked.

n

"No, Mom is sick. I'm going to the hospital to see her,

" Lan Anran said gently.

nHer gaze softened at the mention of her mother.

n

"Alright, remember to sign up,

" Zhao Xiaolei reminded.

n

"Registration? What registration?

"

nLan Anran was confused.

n

"Have you forgotten? The Rong Cheng Medical Research Institute is opening their application tomorrow. You must wake up at dawn, as there are too many applicants. I'm afraid you won't be able to get a spot otherwise.

"

nEvery year at this time, the Internet would freeze up because the Rong Cheng Medical Research Institute was too popular. Out of 10,000 people, 10 would be chosen and then there would be further eliminations. It was extremely difficult.

n

"Got it, thank you.

"

nLan Anran carried her bag and left the classroom.

n….

nAt the hospital…

nWhen Lan Anran and Lan Yanran arrived at the hospital, Li Yueru was awake because of the medicine.

n

"Mom, are you alright?

" Lan Anran asked softly.

n

"I'm alright. Did your grandma make things difficult for you?

" Li Yueru asked.

n

"No, Grandma has been discharged from the hospital to recuperate.

"

n

"Mom, it's my fault.

"

nLan Anran reproached herself.

n

"Mom, Dad, don't blame her. She got first place in the written exam!

" Lan Yanran said proudly.

n

"What? Is that true, Anran?

"

nLi Yueru's eyes widened in shock and disbelief.

n

"Yeah, it's true.

"

nLan Yanran continued,

"Anran, why didn't you tell Mom and Dad that you know medicine? That way, Grandma wouldn't look down on us.

"

nLan Tingyun was ecstatic. Lan Yaxin was finally not the only one in the Lan Family. His daughter was better than anyone else!

n

"There's nothing much to say, it's just a written test. There's still the interview,

" Lan Anran said calmly.

n

"It's alright, my daughter is the best.

"

nLi Yueru believed in Lan Anran. Since she could come in first, it meant that she would have no problem.

nShe instantly felt better and her face was rosier.
