After the True Heiress Travels Back-Chapter 67: Betting on When She’ll Be Kicked Out
Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Betting on When She’ll Be Kicked Out
Shi Yaoguang stood at the classroom doorway, and inside, there was a dead silence.
Ruan Yujiao introduced Shi Yaoguang to everyone, "Classmates, Shi Yaoguang has transferred to our class. From now on, she will be a new member of our class. I hope everyone gets along well in the future."
After Ruan Yujiao finished speaking, the room fell silent again.
It was a long time before someone whispered in discussion.
"Isn’t it said that Shi Yaoguang is a disheveled village girl with a sallow complexion and hair like dry straw? She doesn’t look anything like that at all."
"Your news is way outdated, right? Someone posted her recent photos on the forum. If those beauties aren’t heavily photoshopped, she’s definitely taking first place in the new semester’s school beauty contest!"
"Now that you mention it, not to speak of anything else, her looks are way better than our fake rich girl by more than a little bit."
"Shush—she’s looking over here!"
Apart from the whispers, there were also those who directly expressed their discontent.
Sitting in the second-to-last row, a girl with a fishtail braid and smoky makeup stood up, bluntly voicing her dissatisfaction.
"Teacher Ruan, I don’t accept this!"
Upon hearing this, Ruan Yujiao’s brows furrowed, "What did you say?"
"I’m not willing to stay in the same class with unwanted trash!" the girl with the fishtail braid said firmly.
As Shi Yaoguang heard the word ’trash’, she slightly lowered her eyes, a hint of a dark glint flashing past them.
Trash, huh?
We’ll see about that.
The girl with the fishtail braid inexplicably felt a chill at her neck.
She subconsciously touched her neck and then looked at Shi Yaoguang with eyes full of disgust, continuing her impassioned rhetoric.
"Shi Yaoguang was in class seven last semester, and Teacher Qin from class seven openly expressed his dissatisfaction with her—it’s clearly her fault! After the placement test at the beginning of the term, according to her ranking, she should have gone to class nine, but here she is."
"There’s only one possibility, the head teacher of class nine didn’t want to accept her either!"
As she spoke, she revealed a bit of contempt and arrogance, "Being a piece of trash that’s been rejected here and there, by what right does she join our class? Our class isn’t a trash can."
After the girl with the fishtail braid finished speaking, she gave Shi Yaoguang a provocative glance.
Ruan Yujiao held her forehead, scolding her, "Gao Wenlan, watch your mouth!"
The girl with the fishtail braid retorted, "Teacher Ruan, I’m not talking nonsense!"
She glared at Shi Yaoguang again, blaming her for causing trouble, "It’s all your fault. If it weren’t for you, Teacher Ruan wouldn’t be angry with me."
Shi Yaoguang snorted coldly, "What have I done? Did I make you speak filth?"
"Who’s speaking filth?" Gao Wenlan slapped a book onto her desk with a "bang," her expression one of wishing she could dispense justice on Shi Yaoguang right then and there, "You better recognize your place and not think about sticking around!"
"Gao Wenlan!"
Ruan Yujiao heard her excessive words and couldn’t help but interrupt loudly, "That’s enough from you! Shi Yaoguang is a new student. Whatever happened in her previous class is all in the past. If she does something against the rules in our class, I will naturally deal with it."
"On the other hand, if she hasn’t done anything wrong, nobody has the right to bully her!"
Gao Wenlan protested, "Teacher Ruan, you’re being biased!"
"How am I being biased?" Ruan Yujiao was exasperated, "I just hope you can be a little kinder to the new student."
Gao Wenlan, still angry, tried to argue further, but her deskmate pulled at the hem of her clothes.
Her deskmate gave her a ’calm down’ look.
Gao Wenlan thought it over and decided to keep the peace for now.
After class, she would have her own ways to deal with the trash Shi Yaoguang.
Soon enough, Shi Yaoguang would be scared off without her having to say anything.
Thinking this, Gao Wenlan managed to be both humble and forceful in front of Ruan Yujiao, "Teacher Ruan, I realize my mistake, rest assured. I’ll try to accept the new student. I promise to let her experience the warmest care from her classmates."
Ruan Yujiao felt that she couldn’t just compromise like this.
Yet, she wouldn’t voice her thoughts out loud in public; she decided to find a chance to talk to Shi Yaoguang in private.
After Gao Wenlan quieted down, no one else in class continued to make a fuss.
Ruan Yujiao then explained the class rules, supposedly for everyone, but actually to accommodate the new student, Shi Yaoguang.
Shi Yaoguang had spent only one class in the special class, and it was too early to say what the other students were like.
Ruan Yujiao, the homeroom teacher, was someone she actually liked.
So, she decided to stay here for the time being.
...
School forum.
Because of Shi Yaoguang’s class transfer, the forum became lively once again.
Frankly, Shi Yaoguang only made waves on the school forum, which was below her abilities.
With her naturally trending presence, if she entered the entertainment industry, she’d surely be a top influencer.
But back to the point, the forum was filled with mockery towards her.
"Some people really bring disaster on themselves, always wanting to clash with the teachers. Now what? Her ninth-grade homeroom teacher has outright rejected her."
"The young masters and mistresses in the special class are not easy to deal with. Even if the special class teacher Ruan doesn’t despise her, she might not last long there either."
"If she had known this would happen, why not just accept the loss? If she chose to drop out immediately after the worst scores were released, I would have thought better of her. But what did she do? She tried to exploit a loophole in the bet to swindle Teacher Qin and also doubted her scores. In the end, isn’t she still the last in line?"
"... Someone next door started a thread betting on how long Shi Yaoguang will last in the special class, go check it out!"
Seeing this message, many couldn’t wait to visit the neighboring thread.
#PlaceYourBets #BettingOnWhenShiYaoguangGetsKickedOutOfTheSpecialClass
Bet on one class period, odds are five-to-one.
Bet on one morning, odds are seven-to-one.
Bet on one-day, odds are ten-to-one.
Bet on two days, odds are twenty-to-one.
Go on like this, and the odds go even higher.
Seeing this, the crowd eagerly placed their bets.
Considering these odds, there was almost no need to think.
Shi Yaoguang had to be kicked out as soon as she entered!
So, most people bet on the first option, one class period.
At the same time.
Inside the special class, there were also people sneakily browsing the forum on their smartphones.
It must be said, the special class was not one to follow discipline.
Playing with smartphones outright during class wasn’t unheard of, and the teachers had grown tired of managing it.
However, the students still had a sense of propriety.
With Ruan Yujiao as their homeroom teacher leading the class, they consciously adhered to classroom discipline.
So, even to browse the forum, they had to do it on the sly.
And this time, it caused quite a stir.
The guy browsing the forum couldn’t suppress his excitement and blurted out.
"Holy shit~"
"Isn’t this way too thrilling?"
Hearing the noise, everyone looked toward him.
The excited person said, "Someone has started a betting pool on the forum!"
"What kind of betting pool?"
The person on the phone said, "It’s betting on when Shi Yaoguang will be driven out by us."
Everyone: "..."
