Chapter 9-Domineering

"This year's first place." The host stopped, "Student Meng Ting, 142 marks."

Meng Ting stood up.

She couldn't believe that she really won.

Her heart started to race, $8000......

He Jun Ming below was confused too: "What......did I just win the bet?"

Fang Tan and He Han also froze.

He Jun Ming: " She's so smart oh my god."

Jiang Ren laughed out loud without any clear reason why.

Ha Han said: "Boss Ren, where are you going?"

Jiang Ren didn't reply to his question and walked out on his own.

The organizers were very efficient, the top 3 places were given their prizes on the spot as they got up the stage. Every one of them got a corresponding certificate, and also a banking card.

Lu Yue stood beside Meng Ting, her facial expression not looking very good.

She got first place for the last few years, she thought that this year wouldn't be any different, but Meng Ting took her spot.

Come to think of it, Lu Yue's own mentality contributed to the problem, all her attention was on Jiang Ren, even as she studied, she couldn't focus on her book, in the past years, she could get at least 140 marks, but this year she only got 136 marks, as she wasn't very matured, her thinking showed quite obviously.

Lu Yue already adjusted her facial expression as she got on stage, she smiled at Meng Ting and said: "Congratulations junior."

Meng Ting wasn't good at socialising, she softly said in return: "Thank you, and congratulations to you too, senior Lu Yue."

Lu Yue's heart went cold, it's just first place right? Someone like Meng Ting, she's met so many people like her while growing up, poor and frugal, like grey dust in the air, except for her slightly outstanding results, they had no other talents.

But Lu Yue, she's pretty, her family was well off, her good results was only one of the small things in her list that she was good at. What she had, Meng Ting could never have for her entire life.

The only thing that she was embarrassed about, is that she told Jiang Ren that she'll show him that she'll get first place, but now that turned into second place.

After the photographer finished the group photo session, students started to leave to head home. Majority of the parents were comforting their children who lost the competition, together they walked out of the art centre.

Meng Ting walked at the back of the crowd.

She was carrying a blue backpack, it was already afternoon then, the sun was shining bright.

The sun hanging high, she couldn't help but look down, her hands softly placed in front of her forehead. Colourful balloons were hung up outside, to celebrate the arrival of Thanksgiving.

A slender and strong-arm appeared in front of her eyes.

The teen was also wearing black leather gloves, holding a pink ice cream: "Meng Ting."

She was surprised, she looked up at him.

He smiled: "Why are you looking at me, take it."

Meng Ting didn't really want to see him and didn't want to accept his things, she looked down at the tip of her shoes: "Can I not?"
