Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

In early April, the parasol trees in Jin City swayed gently in the breeze.

Tension filled the air on the third floor of No.1 Middle School. While Gu Yang consistently ranked within the top five of her class, there remained ample room for improvement in her academic performance. Thus, she dedicated herself to diligent study each day upon entering the classroom.

Gu Jin and Feng Jue, recognizing her dedication, took it upon themselves to assist her in identifying areas for improvement.

Dividing the workload between them, Gu Jin focused on mathematics and biology, while Feng Jue tackled physics and chemistry.

Gu Yang excelled in language and English, requiring little assistance in those subjects.

Zhu Di, Mo Mo, Lu Mao, and their peers often gathered around as Gu Jin and Feng Jue patiently explained complex concepts to Gu Yang.

Meanwhile, following the Wang family’s bankruptcy, Wang Lingyu’s father was incarcerated. Many of their real estate holdings, including the family’s long-standing villa, were liquidated through court-ordered auctions.

Wang Lingyu found himself grappling with the loss of his privileged status as a scion of a wealthy family. Compounding his woes, he was unceremoniously booted from the prestigious position of first lieutenant colonel on the basketball team.

His basketball skills had never been exceptional; his enrollment as a sports special student stemmed solely from his lackluster academic performance. In the past, his family’s influence had garnered him favor with the school’s basketball coaches and players.

However, in the wake of the Wang family’s downfall, his former teammates turned their backs on him, with some even adding insult to injury.

It wasn’t just his teammates; acquaintances from privileged circles swiftly distanced themselves from him.

One day, as Gu Yang and her companions accompanied Zhu Di to the basketball court in search of Zheng Yi, they stumbled upon Wang Lingyu embroiled in a heated altercation with members of the school basketball team.

“Frustrating, isn’t it? We’ve tolerated you long enough. If it weren’t for your family’s wealth, who would even bother supporting you? You can’t hold a candle to Zheng Yi. He outshines you in every aspect – skill, academics, and even looks. If I were the eldest daughter of the Zhu family, I’d pick him without hesitation.”

Furious, Wang Lingyu unleashed a torrent of curses, seizing the opportunity to unleash his pent-up frustration.

“Hey, Zheng Yi, looks like your girl’s here.”

“The Zhu family’s eldest daughter has arrived.”

The members of the school basketball team cheered Zheng Yi on at the sight of Gu Yang and her companions.

Despite the attention, Zheng Yi remained aloof. As Zhu Di approached with a bottle of water, he casually discarded the basketball.

With a smile, Zhu Di inquired, “How was the physical exam? Feeling confident?”

Zheng Yi’s grin widened. “Feeling solid.”

Meanwhile, Wang Lingyu, nursing bruises from his earlier altercation with his teammates, seethed at the sight of Zhu Di and Zheng Yi sharing a laugh.

Having realized his feelings for Zhu Di only after losing her, Wang Lingyu’s affection had morphed into resentment in the wake of his family’s downfall at the hands of the Zhu and Gu families.

He stormed over, his voice trembling with rage. “Why, Zhu Di? How can you be so heartless? Even if you no longer have feelings for me, we were childhood sweethearts. How can you stand by and watch as your father and the Gu family tear mine apart?”

As Wang Lingyu approached, Zheng Yi instinctively positioned himself in front of Zhu Di, a hint of derision glinting in his eyes. “In the business world, it’s survival of the fittest. If your skills aren’t up to par, who’s to blame but yourself?”

Lu Mao, accompanied by Zhang Shan and Li Shi’s lackeys, encircled them, adding, “Exactly. Besides, wasn’t it your family’s doing that led to this mess? Who told you to dabble in drugs? And who instructed your father to incriminate the Gu family?”

Surrounded by the group, Wang Lingyu’s bravado faltered.

Just then, the newly appointed head of the Political Affairs Department arrived on the scene, responding to a report of the altercation. “Who’s causing trouble here? Still brawling on school grounds?”

All eyes turned to Wang Lingyu.

“Which class are you from? Come with me to the Political Education Department to write a self-reflection.”

Wang Lingyu and his fellow classmate involved in the altercation were promptly escorted away.

Since the Wang family’s downfall, even Director Yi, the former head of the Political Education Department, had been affected. With his removal from his position, Wang Lingyu found himself without anyone to shield him from the consequences of his actions.
