After breakfast, Song Jiaren went to school. When she arrived at the classroom, the bell rang. Liu Meifeng stood at the podium and pointed. “Song Jiaren, you’re late. Stand outside the door and listen to the class.”

Song Jiaren ignored her and walked toward her seat.

Liu Meifeng was a little embarrassed. She grabbed Song Jiaren’s arm and pulled her out of the door. She said fiercely, “If you don’t listen to the teacher, you’ll be punished to stand outside tomorrow too.”

Qi Wenwen hurriedly ran into the classroom and said, “Teacher, I’m sorry I’m late.”

Liu Meifeng nodded and asked Qi Wenwen to return to her seat. Song Jiaren sneered. “Teacher, won’t Qi Wenwen be punished for being late?”

“She’s polite. Have you apologized to me?” Liu Meifeng said matter-of-factly. Song Jiaren flung her hand away and questioned, “As a teacher, are you polite? You signed me up for sports events without my approval. Also, last time, you lost a bet with me. Did you do cleaning duty?” Liu Meifeng wanted to defend herself, but she didn’t know how to. The students in the class started to discuss softly. Liu Meifeng felt that they were all criticizing her.

“Enough!” she shouted. “I’m a teacher. You have to do whatever I tell you to do! All you do is complain all day. Can’t you study more?”

Mo Jia stood up and said, “Teacher, are you still going to teach? You’re telling us to study, but why are you wasting our time arguing?” Liu Meifeng’s face flushed with anger. She pointed at Mo Jia and said, “You go stand outside as punishment too.”

Mo Jia kicked away the stool and said loudly, “I don’t want to listen to your class. You don’t know how to give lessons at all. Just because your family has power, you take advantage of that and don’t even teach properly.”

“I’ll go with you guys.” Ivy stood up as well. She walked up to Liu Meifeng and snorted. “I’ve put up with you for a long time.”

The students in the class also started to criticize Liu Meifeng. The classroom was noisy. Liu Meifeng looked at them helplessly and hurriedly took her things to leave the classroom.

Song Jiaren looked at her back and sneered. “Teacher Liu, look at how unpopular you are.”

Liu Meifeng clenched her fists and left without looking back.

Song Jiaren looked at Mo Jia and Ivy, then smiled as she said, “You guys are so cool.”

Mo Jia said excitedly, “Jiaren, you’re even cooler. You’re so cool.”

Qi Wenwen stormed towards them and said angrily, “Song Jiaren, why did you drag me into your argument with the teacher?”

Song Jiaren tidied up her deformed clothes and said carelessly, “Because I’m willing to. By the way, aren’t you buying my things? Have you collected enough money? These things are too much of a hindrance to my bed. Pay for them as soon as possible.” Qi Wenwen glared at her angrily. She had gone too far. She couldn’t afford so much money. A vicious look flashed across her eyes as she said coldly, “I’ll give you the money tomorrow night at the cafe outside school.”

Song Jiaren looked at her suspiciously. Qi Wenwen’s family wasn’t rich, so it was impossible for her to have so much money. Then where did she get the money from?

Mo Jia asked curiously, “Qi Wenwen, when did your family become so rich?”

Qi Wenwen sneered. “It’s none of your business. You should think about how to cheer for Song Jiaren at the sports meet.” With that, she left.

Hearing Qi Wenwen’s words, Ivy said worriedly, “Jiaren, what are you going to do tomorrow at the sports meet?”

Song Jiaren said casually, “Don’t worry, I’ll show you my strength tomorrow.”
