Was of His Own Free Will

"Yanyan, there's no need to persuade someone like him who doesn't want to improve. It's useless to persuade him. Let's go."

The male student next to him glanced at Chen Jing with disdain.

His name was Jiang Wenxuan. He was the vice class monitor of their class. His family background was good and his academic results were excellent. He had always had a sense of superiority in the class.

He had always looked down on people like Chen Jing whose family background and academic results were average.

In addition, when most of the boys in his class kept a respectful distance from Lu Yanyan, he was the only one who was like a mosquito, always buzzing around Lu Yanyan.

"Chen Jing, tomorrow is my 18th birthday. My dad has prepared a birthday party for me. I've invited everyone in my class. You should come tomorrow."

Lu Yanyan paused for a moment before sending out an invitation.

Chen Jing thought for a moment. He originally wanted to reject it. After all, there was so much 'deep hatred' between the two of them. But on second thought, he thought that a man like him wouldn't be so petty, right?

So he asked, "Will the entire class be there?"

"Yes, they will all be there," Lu Yanyan said.

"Then, alright," Chen Jing said.

"Thank you."

After getting Chen Jing's consent, Lu Yanyan thanked him, then, she said to him seriously, "Chen Jing, actually, your results are all okay. As long as you don't relax and study hard, you should be able to pass the first Test."

"Pass the first test? Of course," Chen Jing said casually.

He could now see the accuracy rate. In the past, multiple-choice questions were the ones that lost the most points in exams. Now that he had this ability, it would undoubtedly be a great killing tool for him to pass the exam.

"Heh, what big words! You were ranked 30th in the entire class in the last test, right? You dare to say that you can pass the first line with this kind of result?" Jiang Wenxuan sneered at the side.

Chen Jing completely ignored him.

Lu Yanyan said, "For the math class this morning, the teacher gave us a set of test papers and explained them to us. I feel that they are very helpful for revision. I made a lot of notes. If you want to read them later, I can lend them to you."

"Thank you for your kind intentions. I don't need them. I'm pretty good at Math," Chen Jing said.

"The exam paper this time was created by the teacher using all the weird questions from the previous college entrance exams. And the focus is on the multiple-choice questions. You made a lot of mistakes on the multiple-choice questions in the last exam. Don't be arrogant," Lu Yanyan said with a frown.

"I don't dare to say anything else. If I were to be serious about the multiple-choice questions, none of you would be my match," Chen Jing said proudly.

Even though he knew that Lu Yanyan had good intentions and that she liked him...

However, Chen Jing had been against her since the first year of high school, all the way until the third year of high school. Once this habit was formed, he could not change it for the time being.

"You really dare to say it. Aren't you afraid that the wind will blow your tongue?" Jiang Wenxuan interrupted again and sneered.

Chen Jing had already tolerated him twice previously. Seeing him appear again this time, he said, "Jiang Wenxuan, I'll be honest. If I were to do multiple-choice questions, even ten of you combined would not be my match."

"Is that so?" Jiang Wenxuan sneered. "When the test papers were distributed today, my accuracy rate was the highest. Moreover, I finished them in half an hour. If it were you, would you be able to do it?"

His tone and expression were quite disdainful.

"Of course I can do it. Moreover, I'll only be faster than you. I won't be slower than you."

"You only know how to show off. Speaking of which, I just happened to ask for an additional test paper here. Since you say that you're so mighty, why don't you give it a try in front of Yanyan?"

Jiang Wenxuan took out a blank paper from his bag. They were all math multiple-choice questions.

These questions, including single-choice and multiple-choice, were all variations of the high-difficulty multiple-choice questions in the college entrance examination. They were all very difficult.

He, Jiang Wenxuan, could finish this paper in half an hour. Moreover, his accuracy was the highest in the class. This could indeed make him proud.

"Jiang Wenxuan, stop fooling around," Lu Yanyan shouted to stop him.

It was impossible for him to solve such difficult questions, and it was Chen Jing's weakness.

"Yanyan, it's not that I'm fooling around. It's just that some people are arrogant and like to brag. Moreover, they don't even draft when they brag." Jiang Wenxuan shook the paper. "Do you dare to try? If you don't, then forget it."

"If you want me to try, then I'll try?"

"If you don't dare, then just say it. Don't look for excuses."

"Why don't we make a bet?"

"What bet?"

"With people like you, we can only gamble. Do you dare to try?" This time, it was Chen Jing's turn to ask him.

"Heh, gamble? Sure." Jiang Wenxuan took out a 100 yuan note from his pocket. "I'll give you half an hour. If you can make it and do half of it correctly, this 100 yuan will be yours."

"Just 100 yuan?"

"Why? Do you think it's too little? With your family, you probably don't even have 100 yuan in a week's pocket money, right?" Jiang Wenxuan sneered.

Most of the students in his class also knew that Chen Jing's family owned a restaurant. The conditions were average.

Jiang Wenxuan did not dare to say anything else. In this aspect, he had an absolute sense of superiority.

But he saw Chen Jing suddenly reach into his pocket and take out 4,000 yuan in cash.

This was the remainder of the 10,000 yuan he had taken out previously.

"100 yuan is too petty. Let's bet 4,000 yuan. If it's too much, I reckon you won't be able to take it out," Chen Jing said.

"..." Jiang Wenxuan.

"Why? You don't dare? If you don't dare, then forget it."

"Who says you don't dare?" Jiang Wenxuan glanced at Lu Yanyan. In front of the person he liked, he obviously couldn't admit defeat.

4,000 yuan wasn't a small sum, but to him, it wasn't a lot. He could still afford it.

"But if that's the case, your accuracy must be at least the same as mine," Jiang Wenxuan said. He had scored 74 points today. His full score was 120.

Because they were both difficult questions, this score was already very high.

"There's no need to go through so much trouble. If I make a mistake, I lose, okay?" Chen Jing said.

Jiang Wenxuan was stunned. Then, he sneered, "Do you know what you're talking about? If you make a mistake, you lose? Do you mean what you said?"

"I'm a man. If you say something, of course it counts," Chen Jing said.

"Okay, then I'll make a bet with you. I don't have much cash. If you can do what I do, I'll transfer it to you immediately. Yanyan, you'll be our witness," Jiang Wenxuan said as he patted his chest.

Lu Yanyan also became angry when she saw the two of them arguing with each other. "What are you doing? You're not allowed to bet."

"This isn't a school. Lu Yanyan, even if you're the study commissary, you can't do anything about it." Chen Jing did not say much. He took the test paper and pen from Jiang Wenxuan's hands and planned to start writing.

"These questions are very difficult. You didn't even listen to the teacher's explanation. It's impossible for you to do everything right," Lu Yanyan urged.

"That's none of your business," Chen Jing said.

Jiang Wenxuan also said leisurely, "Yanyan, you've seen it too. I didn't force him to do this. He did it voluntarily. If he loses, I won't allow him to go back on his word."

After saying that, he looked at the time on his watch and began to count.
