“The rankings are out, let me see who’s at the bottom!”
“Shit, the last place isn’t from Class 7? Something’s not right!”
“Forget about the last place, there’s not a single student from Class 7 among the last ten or even the
last hundred?”
The Class 1 students started to panic, and even Ms. Lee became slightly nervous.
“It must be a system error!“‘ Jayden speculated.
“Yeah, the system must have excluded Class 7,” Mia sneered. “Maybe they thought Class 7 always
ranks last, so there’s no need to put them on the list!”
This conclusion was widely accepted, and everyone continued to look at the rankings.
Just when they thought the situation was true as they speculated, a name appeared on the screen.
“No. 49, Class 7, Sun Miller.”
The crowd erupted in astonishment!
“Oh my gosh! Sun’s ex–girlfriend Mia is only ranked 67th this time? How did he perform so well?”
“Is Hedy’s teaching really that effective?”
“That’s impossible, Hedy used to perform worse than Sun!”

“Then what’s the reason for his remarkable improvement in this exam?”
Everyone was puzzled.
Little did they know, this was just the beginning of their confusion!
The screen continued to scroll, and one name after another from Class 7 appeared in the rankings.
“No. 42, Class 7…”
“No. 40, Class 7…”
“No. 18, Class 7…”
“No. 12, Class 7…”
When the names of Class 7 students appeared among the top ten, everyone was completely
dumbfounded.
How could Class 7 achieve ch outstanding results in just fifteen days?
“No. 6, Class 1, Jayden…”
At this point, the large screen changed to a more striking color because the next rankings to be
announced were the top five.
Everyone held their breath.
Someone whispered.
“We have… not seen Hedy’s name yet, right?”
Except for Hedy, the rankings of the other Class 7 students had been revealed.

Hedy was a key figure in the ongoing rivalry between Class 7 and Class 1, and it was hard for
everyone to ignore her.
“Is Hedy fifth?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe screen scrolled, “No. 5, Class 1, xxx.”
“Or maybe fourth?”
“No. 4, Class 1, xxx.”
“She’s third?”
“No. 3, Class 1, Oliver Johnson.”
“I bet she’s second, and first place goes to Gloria Rossi!” One of Gloria’s loyal fans exclaimed.
However, the information on the large screen quickly contradicted their claims.
“No. 2, Class 1, Gloria Rossi.‘

loud.
Ms. Lee’s face turned pale, Mia trembled all over, and Jayden covered his face.
The Class 1 students wore expressions of shock, while students from other classes had their mouths
hanging open
Compared to them, the Class 7 students remained relatively calm.
They had already anticipated this outcome.
But upon closer inspection, one would notice that they were not as composed as they appeared.
Their eyes reddened, their hands clenched tightly, and they slowly released the pent–up resentment
they had accumulated over these days and years.
With their achievements, they proved that they were not trash!
They had stood up for Godde Hedy and saved Mr. Evan’s job!
“Quit! Apologize!” Sun shouted with raised arms.
The victory was sealed, and it was time to settle the score.
“Quit! Apologize!”
The Class 7 students echoed in unison, repeating it over and over again.
With all eyes watching, even those who didn’t want to admit defeat had to consider the consequences.
Jayden was the first to accept the reality. He walked up to Hedy, bowing and speaking humbly, “I’m
sorry.”

Then he proceeded to bow and apologize to every Class 7 student.
Students from Class 1 followed suit; they were eager to quickly finish their apologies and leave this
cursed place.
Mia, dragging her feet, finally approached Hedy to apologize. She did so half–heartedly, saying,
“Sorry.”
“It’s your honor.”
Hedy broke her silence since the announcement of the rankings.
“Because your e
ranked 49th, while you ranked 67th.”
Mia’s head jerked up.
Wasn’t this the exact insult she hurled at Sun back then?
Hedy enunciated each word clearly, “You should also feel ashamed. Sun ate cheap bread for a whole
month to save money and buy you a birthday gift, yet you played with the heart of this boy who
sincerely cared for you.”
Mia bit her lower lip and covered her face as she ran away.
“Goddess Hedy, it’s so nice of you to get my back!” Sun, the tough guy, burst into tears, approaching
Hedy with his snot on the verge of flowing.
He truly adored Goddess Hedy!
Well, it was just admiration!
“I’m just stating the facts,” Hedy replied, turning her face away.
At that moment, a male teacher approached from the direction of the principal’s office and handed a
dismissal letter to Ms. Lee, who was still lost in her thoughts.

“Ms. Lee, the principal said you should keep your promises and set an example for the students.”
“Yes!”
The students from Class 7 jumped up joyfully.
Student Union Office.
Gloria swept the documents off the table, her chest heaving with anger. The once gentle look in her
eyes had transformed into a fierce expression.
“Why did Hedy get better grades than me?”
It was just a vacation. How could Hedy become so smart?
Last time at the library, as soon as Hedy left, someone went to the surveillance room and reviewed the
footage. It was confirmed that Gloria had indeed appeared the stairs at “13:17:38“. She didn’t even
have the chance to make any move!
Gloria could only claim that she was distracted and didn’t notice what happened outside the stairs.
As the president of the Student Union, her every word and action was under scrutiny by the public. This
incident spread widely among the students, resulting in a lot of negative comments.
Even the votes for her on the campus beauty ranking had decreased significantly.
Meanwhile, Hedy’s popularity was soaring, surging into the top 20!
“I didn’t notice,” Gloria took a deep breath and adjusted herself,

standing by the window and watching Hedy being surrounded in the square. She muttered to herself,
“Hedy, the future is long. Let’s wait and see!”
“Hedy, there’s a long way to go. Just wait and see!”
Class 7.
The students were still buzzing with excitement from their victory over Class 1. They chattered
incessantly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHedy packed her bag, intending to head back to the King Family’s villa.
But just as she took a step forward, Sun called out to her, “Goddess Hedy, where are you going?”
Hedy replied, “I’m going home.”
“We have the Lowell High School 20th Anniversary Celebration Gala tonight. Did you forget?
All the shareholders of the school will be there, including the new shareholder, Childe King. Each class
will be performing.” Sun grinned.
“You just transferred here recently, so you can’t perform with us.”
Hedy was taken aback.
In the original host’s memories, there did seem to be something about a school anniversary
celebration.
She put down her backpack and sat back down.

In the back row, a male student whispered, “Hey guys, the public account that specializes in stories
about assassins just updated. This time, it’s about the top ace of the assassin world: Queen!”
Sun’s eyes widened. “I’ll watch it with you. I haven’t brought my phone to school for the past few days
because of the exams!”
“Me too,” several boys gathered around.
They loved stories about legendary professions like assassins and the tales derived from such
professions.
The boy with a phone began reading.
“Queen came from a poor family in a small village.
Her parents were illegal immigrants, so she had no passport and spent her entire childhood struggling
to survive in the dark corners.
She had a younger brother, but her parents were addicted to drugs and didn’t care about their well–
being.
To feed her brother, she stole formula milk and got her leg broken by the shop owner.
To ensure her brother had clothes for winter, she broke into a house to steal clothes but ended up
being tied to a tree all night by the
homeowner.
When she was ten years old, her parents sold her and her brother to a drug dealer. She accidentally
killed the drug dealer and caught the attention of an assassin organization behind her…”
The male student’s voice trailed off when he reached this part.
According to the story, Queen became an assassin at the age of ten.

That means the leg–breaking and being hung from a tree all night happened before she turned ten.
What was he doing before he turned ten?
Pestering the nanny for toys? Drinking milk and watching TV?
Regardless, it couldn’t compare to shouldering the responsibility of supporting a younger brother…
“What’s wrong? Feeling sorry for her?”
“These are all made up. You don’t believe it, do you?”
“I don’t believe it either. Besides, who knows if assassins exist in this world?”
