Difficulties

During this period of time, Si Yu did not go to the club again.

Zou Kai, the president of the drama club, had visited her several times, asking about her well-being. He didn't say anything else and didn't mention why the props had such a malfunction.

Si Yu had never mentioned it before. Every time Zou Kai sent something over, she would accept it without hesitation.

Chu Yuan observed Si Yu a few times, and seeing that she really didn't intend to pursue the matter, she could heave a sigh of relief.

The day of the calligraphy competition soon arrived.

During this period, Kun You became busier. Si Yu knew that he was worried about his grandmother's condition and was desperate to find the divine doctor. Although he was busy, he would never stay out for an entire day or night. This led to her getting no opportunity to treat her grandmother with Jian Yan's identity.

Jiu Qi complained and urged her a few times, but she pretended to be pitiful and innocent and dodged it.

According to her memories from her previous life, Kun You's grandmother's life was not in danger for the time being. Next, she just had to wait for an opportunity when Kun You was away from Dragon City on a business trip, and she could naturally go back to her character.

This wasn't an urgent matter for the time being. First, she had to deal with the people before her.

The calligraphy competition was broadcasted live nationwide, and the event was unprecedentedly grandiose. The sports field of Dragon City University was packed with people.

Si Yu carefully squeezed through the crowd to avoid anyone touching her injured right hand. After a good while, she finally managed to enter the backstage.

The rules of the competition required all the contestants to submit their previous best works, and then the judges would score them one by one. The top three with the highest scores had to write a piece of calligraphy on the spot and present it to the audience. The order of winning would be decided by the judges and the audience.

Many netizens who loved calligraphy were waiting in front of the live broadcast, waiting to see the standard of this year's calligraphy competition's champion.

Chu Yuan proudly handed in her calligraphy piece and was enjoying the compliments of the people around her when suddenly, she saw someone who shouldn't be here from the corner of her eye, which froze the smile on her face.

"Why did you come to the competition?" Chu Yuan, who had always been collected, couldn't help but lose her composure. She quickly walked to Si Yu's side and pointed at her right hand, which was wrapped like a rice dumpling. "How are you going to write with your hand in this state?"

"Oh, a cripple can still write calligraphy? Do you think it can be called calligraphy just by scribbling a few words?" The woman who had been chatting with Chu Yuan just now trotted up to Si Yu with a graceful posture. "Let me see what the hell you've been writing."

A sneer formed on her face as she looked at the paper in her hand in disbelief. She stammered, "You... You wrote this? "

After she finished speaking, she shook her head in amusement. "I'm really confused. How could you have written this?"

She returned the copybook to Si Yu and warned, " "Hey, don't say I didn't warn you. If you steal someone else's work and participate in the competition, you'll be removed from the board."

"Who told you that I've stolen somebody's work?" Si Yu rolled her eyes at her and handed the copybook to the staff.

The staff member had long noticed the commotion. After hearing the woman's words, he looked at her in disbelief. "Student, are you sure you wrote this yourself?"

Si Yu nodded innocently. "Of course, I'm sure. Some people can't write it themselves, which is why they say that others' work is fake. You really believe it?"

The staff looked at the woman who had just spoken, feeling troubled.

That was the Daughter of the Dragon City Writers Association, Hu Xin. She was not someone he could afford to offend. The calligraphy in his hand immediately became a hot potato.

Since Hu Xin had already said that she had stolen the calligraphy, he would never have the guts to hand it over to the higher-ups.

Chu Yuan's mind churned quickly. This was the best opportunity to stop Si Yu from participating in the competition.

"I'm sorry, Xin Xin. She's my classmate. She must have lost her mind and done something like that. I'll ask her to leave immediately. She won't affect our competition."

Upon hearing her words, Hu Xin's initially furious gaze returned to its usual disdain. "Since she's your coursemate, Yuanyuan, I won't pursue the matter further as long as she leaves on her own accord."

Chu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief and attempted to persuade Si Yu. "You should go back. It won't be good for you if this matter blows up."

Si Yu frowned, disagreeing with her. "What won't be good for me?"

A hint of impatience appeared on Chu Yuan's face. "You didn't write this calligraphy, so what are you doing with it? If this matter were to spread, where would Dragon City University put its face? Don't you think of what's going to happen to Principal Shen? He's been so good to you."
