Chapter 31 The circle of the rich second generation

機械翻訳

Mu Zilin felt that this teacher was being very hypocritical. However, the teacher decided not to say anything more.

Shuishui and Mu Zilin both had a cold attitude, but the teacher could not do anything because their parents always called her. The two students probably held a grudge against her, but there was nothing she could do. She really didn't expect them to have performed well in the exam.

They went downstairs to have their graduation photos taken. In fact, they all had a group photo taken, then a single portrait of each student was taken. The principal then delivered a speech for the graduates. After a lot of pleasantries, the principal finally got to the main topic.

"This time, I need to especially encourage someone. This student also got the highest score in our school's high school entrance exam this year. Moreover, this student's progress is obvious to everyone." The principal was very happy. It was indeed a surprise that two students from the regular class were admitted to a key high school, and one of them even got 755 points.

A student from the key class prepared to come forward, as she thought that they would praise her. She knew that in her class, she had the highest score and that the other classes could not compare with her at all.

However, the name that the principal shouted made her feel very awkward. "Qian Shuishui, you have obtained the highest score in this year's high school entrance examination. You are very outstanding. Come up on stage and say a few words."

The principal kindly looked at Shuishui and made way for her as she went up on stage to speak.

Shuishui did not understand why it was so sudden, but since the principal had called her name, she obliged. When she walked up on stage, everyone looked at Shuishui in disbelief. One after another, students asked, "How is that possible?"

"How many points did Shuishui get?"

"That can't be right. She's in the bottom few. How can she get first place now?"

". . ."

Everyone didn't believe it and stared at her.

Shuishui stood on the stage and wasn't afraid at all. Mu Zilin even gave Shuishui a thumbs-up and silently cheered her on.

Shuishui revealed a smile and said, "Hello, everyone. My name is Qian Shuishui. I would like to give my speech. For this exam, I would like to thank my good friends who accompanied me and studied with me. At the same time, I have learned a lot in the past three years . . ." Shuishui was also very good at giving speeches. After all, she had already experienced a lot. She had pulled people around her to help her. Of course, all of those people were helpful to her. In the end, she thanked the school for giving her such a good environment.

She was completely unprepared, but she was able to speak so fluently and eloquently. The principal appreciated her speech very much. Shuishui spoke for ten minutes before she stopped. She then handed the microphone over to the principal.

The principal chuckled. "Qian Shuishui performed exceptionally this time. She is very outstanding. The others did great as well. You did your best and got your ideal scores. The next time we meet will be when you come to get your graduation books. This summer vacation, relax well and prepare to welcome the new semester."

The speech ended and everyone dispersed. Many of the students gathered together and went out to play. The few people who were good at playing with Shuishui gathered by themselves and did not ask Shuishui and Mu Zilin to join them. The two felt like they were from a different world. The others wondered why the got first place in the exam and they got into rubbish high schools. From the looks of it, Mu Zilin seemed to have done well in the exam.

Mu Zilin approached them, but the other party found an excuse to dismiss him. How could Mu Zilin not feel the other party's rejection and coldness? He sighed. Those were his so-called friends. It didn't matter that they were like that. He didn't need to care so much. He called up his old group of friends whom he hadn't been with for a long time. They belonged to the same circles, but since that group always bullied Shuishui, he no longer hung out with them. 'It would be different now that Shuishui had changed. How could she be bullied?'

When the person on the other end of the phone heard that there was a party, they said, "Sure." It had been a long time since he had last seen Mu Zilin and Qian Shuishui. Mu Zilin told him they were going to high school. "Right."

Mu Zilin walked over to Shuishui's side. "Let's go to a party later and have lunch."

"Lunch is fine. I have to go to class in the afternoon." Shuishui could not continue to ask for leave because she had progressed very quickly in the past days. It was difficult for her to learn and she needed to practice, so she could not delay her leave any longer.

"Then let's go. It's also good to have lunch. You go to class in the afternoon. If you do not have any activities in the evening, I'll pick you up." Mu Zilin scratched his head. Shuishui had become very busy. He had actually started to learn what he liked, but he always felt very tired. However, every time he thought of Shuishui, he gritted his teeth and persevered.

"Okay." Shuishui nodded with a smile. In fact, her teacher was going to introduce someone to her that afternoon. It was the retired special forces soldier. She believed that women indeed needed to acquire and develop self-protection skills as well as adaptability skills.

The two of them left side by side. Shuishui looked at the time. It was not even ten o'clock yet. "Isn't it a little early to set off now?"

"It's fine. They are already there. Let's go to Yu Wenhai's shop. They are in the private room." Mu Zilin realized that Shuishui seemed to be a little slow to react to such things.

Shuishui was looking for memories. 'Yu Wenhai.' That's right. She was from the Yu family. The family was well-off and was second-generation rich like them. This person was two years older than them and was already in high school. They used to eat, drink, and play every day. In the past, they often played together. However, these people despised Shuishui and Shuishui's nouveau riche family. Moreover, Shuishui's character wasn't very likable. Everyone often bickered, and some women bullied Shuishui. Shuishui was no longer willing to play with them. Mu Zilin stood by Shuishui's side and no longer talked to them as often.

"Oh, those people. I've almost forgotten about them. It doesn't matter. It's been a long time since we've seen them. It's good to see them too." Shuishui really didn't care too much. After all, that was the matter of her body's previous owner. And that circle, although it was complicated, had its benefits. It was good for the future. Although she didn't like to socialize and didn't like being in complicated interpersonal relationships, she could tolerate certain things if they could be beneficial to her.

They hailed a taxi after they left a school gate. Mu Zilin looked at Shuishui and said, "Shuishui, you don't have to care too much about what they say. They are that kind of people."

"What?" Shuishui was a little confused.

"Nothing. I don't think they will be able to talk about you now," Zilin replied. Zilin was laughing on the inside. He was very curious about how Shuishui would deal with them.

They arrived at a large club. It was most lively at night, but people would visit the club even during daytime.

There were spots to eat at inside. When they reached the door, Mu Zilin called someone up again. "Brother Yu, where are you?"

"We're at the four seasons hotpot on the second floor. When you come in, tell the staff to bring you to Private Room No. 1." Yu Wenhai continued, "We're drinking tea now. A few more people will come in a while. Let's play first."
