NovelEnglishChapter 188 The time passed quickly as everyone was busy studying. In the last academic session, other classes had meetings or arranged their own activities like watching movies and playing games. However, Class One still had two evening self-study sessions, lasting until 9:30 p.m.
The top-performing class rarely enjoyed any recreational activities. Most students focused on their study plans, but there were also surprises, such as each of them receiving a Christmas fruit.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMadelyn could not attend the evening self-study sessions. The homework consisted of two test papers, which she could only take home and complete later. After packing her things, she had to rush to her piano and dance classes.
Class One was on the sixth floor. After Madelyn took the elevator, she happened to pass by Class Six. They had just finished their activities. Jadie was tidying his belongings and happened to catch sight of her.
“Madelyn.” Madelyn stopped, “Jadie.” They were talking through a window. Jadie smiled, “Today is Christmas, and | was going to look for you, but | found you here.
Here's a greeting card | made for you. Merry Christmas.” Madelyn glanced at the classroom and noticed a massive Christmas tree adorned with ribbons, balloons, and others, creating a festive Christmas atmosphere. Everyone had gifts in their hands, presumably exchanged among themselves.
“And here’s mine.” Serena took a greeting card and a gift from her drawer, handing them to Madelyn.
Madelyn accepted them and felt embarrassed for not preparing anything. Thinking about it, she took two beautifully wrapped Christmas fruits from her bag. They were packaged in boxes with two golden bells hanging on top. The bells were pure gold, making them quite valuable.

It was the first time Serena had received a gift from Madelyn. “Wow, this is so beautiful! Thank you, | really like it.” Jadie glanced down and spotted the Olympiad Mathematics workbook in Madelyn’s backpack. Then, she said, “Today is a holiday, and Zach will be home for dinner too. Let's head back together later!” Madelyn looked at her wristwatch and realized she was running late. “I'm not going back. | still have other classes. | have to go now.” “Is that so? Well, I'll let Zach know later,” Jadie said with a hint of disappointment.
Madelyn nodded and left.
Serena looked at the Christmas fruit in her hand. “Il remember Class One receives this Christmas fruit every year. It must be quite expensive!” Timothy overheard their conversation, “Wait. How could she, with a grade obtained through cheating, have stayed in Class One for such a long time? | lost a few hundred dollars in the last bet because of her.” “Cheating? Did you see it? Or did you catch her in the act?” Adrian asked.
With a tsk sound, Timothy continued, “I'm just surprised. She used to be the second last, but she managed to get into Class One somehow. If it weren't for cheating, | wouldn't believe it. Who knows what tricks she used.” Serena retorted, “That's not true! You guys have no idea how hard Madelyn works. She used to be the last one to leave the classroom and always do extra homework. | saw the Olympiad Mathematics workbook in her bag just now. She must have gotten into the Olympiad Mathematics class. With Madelyn’s grades, she might even become the top scorer in this year’s college entrance examination in Ventropolis.” Timothy laughed, “If she becomes the top scorer in the college entrance examination this year, I'll be a monkey’s uncle.” “Jadie, do you hear this idiot?” Jadie smiled, but was not amused. “They're just biased against Madelyn and don’t know her well, but someone will recognize her efforts someday.”
