"Thank you for what you did today." After walking out of the principal's office, Lily thanked Eric.
Although he was Frank's cousin, he saved her today. It is still necessary to express her thanks.
Eric glanced at her languidly and said, "Only you will be foolish enough to follow such a teacher."
"I..." Lily took a deep breath and said, "In short, thank you for your help today!"
"Don't be so stupid next time." Then, he took off his coat and threw it to Lily.
"You!" Lily just want to refute, a coat was covered over her head, which completely blocked her view.
She pulled the coat off and was about to lose her temper. However, she found that Eric had already
gone far.
Lily could only stare at the back which had gone far and then looked at the coat in her hand. Lily didn't
understand Eric at first. When she saw her bare chest, she immediately blushed.
Without thinking too much, she directly put on his coat. She was angry at Eric's words at first, but she
was grateful after this thing.
The school is a place where there are a lot of rumors. When Lily arrived at the school in the early
morning of the next day, everyone knew that the school manager would invigilate her personally, but
the version she heard was: the school manager was very angry because Lily copied, and decided to
invigilate her in person. Everyone wanted to see how she would pass the examination.
She was not surprised at everyone's reaction at all. After the test results came out, she would see what
these people would say about it!
The exam location was decided in the meeting room of the school. The original time for the exam was
from 9 a.m. to 12 a.m., and from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., which meant that she would pass all the exams for
one day.
However, what Lily did shocked everyone. She had passed all the exams this morning, and she also
requested to Vivian to have the test results this afternoon.
It was not proper for a student to make such a request to the school director, but Vivian agreed.
Before school was over in the afternoon, the examination results of all subjects came out and had been
posted on the campus board.
During the break time, the crowd gathered in front of the document column. When Lily saw what the
crowd was doing, she smiled wryly.
"How is that possible?" Someone in the crowd exclaimed, "Lily got a higher score than the last time!"
"Better than the last time? So her grades are almost the best in the grade?"
"Wow, this is awesome!"
"Impossible, there must be deception."
"I agree with you. How could she make such rapid progress?"
There was a lot of talk, both good and bad.
"Lily, you are awesome. You are even better than the last time." Becky looked at Lily with admiration.
"It's not a big deal. You know my family, I was forced to do this." Lily replied bitterly.
Born in such a family, only if she performed well would she not be looked down. Becky sighed slightly
and held her hand, encouraging her, "Well, I understand, so I will encourage you and stay with you!"
Lily was very touched. They were best friends in the previous life. If it weren't for Frank, their friendship
would last for too long.
Because the results of Lily's single test did not drop but rose, almost to the second place of the whole
grade. This time it was spread crazily in the school.
At the same time, another rumor was also spread crazily in private that the daughter of a true wife
could not compete with the daughter of a mistress.
Although no name was mentioned in the rumor, everyone knew who they were.
Although JC Middle School was a private school, it was also a private school for rich people. There
were many rich ladies and young masters who came here to study. Therefore, this matter has also
been heard in the upper-society.
These two days, when Lily came home from school, she obviously felt the change of the Dillon's
attitude.
In the evening, Dillon put her favorite food in her bowl. "Lily, eat more. Then you will have more energy
to study."
"Thank you, father." Lily replied with a sweet smile.
"Dad is more and more optimistic about you, you can actually get such a good result." Dillon smiled
happily and looked at Eden. "Eden, you have to cheer up. Your sister's results have exceeded yours."
"Humph!" Claire snorted scornfully, "Who knows whether her grade is true or not?"
"Claire." He gave his daughter a stern look and said, "Your attitude is wrong. If you are not convinced,
you can also achieve such results for me."
"Dad, you are so mean to me..." Claire instantly cried and turned to hug Lucia. "Mom, dad only likes the
daughter with good grades, he doesn't like me, and he doesn't like brother."
"All right, all right, don't cry." Lucia comforted Claire and blamed Dillon. "Why are you so eccentric?
Claire just said casually and you cruel to her."
"I'm not biased. What she said is wrong."
"She just raised her own doubts. Is there anything wrong?"
Looking at Dillon and Lucia starting to quarrel, Lily eased them quickly. "Dad, aunt, stop arguing. My
sister should really question me. Even I am surprised by this progress."
"Lily is really sensible, you have to work hard in the future." Dillon praised.
"I will." Lily nodded and said, "I will, Dad."
"I'm full. I'll go to my room." Eden, who had been silent all this time, suddenly put down his bowl and
chopsticks. His eyebrows deeply furrowed, stood up and left.
"Son." Lucia said to his back, seeing that he didn't stop at all, she turned to stare at Lily and looked at
Dillon. "You can eat with your precious daughter, we are full."
Finishing her words, she left with Claire who was sobbing.
There were only Lily and her father sitting at the table.
"Dad, I'm sorry. It's all my fault." Lily lowered her head, feeling guilty.
Dillon sighed and patted her shoulder, "You didn't do anything wrong. They are ignorant."
Hearing that, Lily smiled slightly.
*
The more Claire thought about it, the more upset she became. She felt nervous in bed, unable to fall
asleep. Her father had paid more and more attention to Lily, which was not good. And even the elder
brother who has always been highly valued has been ignored.
No, Lily can't be arrogant in this house anymore!
Having made up her mind, Claire sat up, took out her phone and dialed a number. Soon the phone was
connected.
"Hello, Terence Qin. You can ask some friends to wait for me at school tomorrow. Yes, I'll tell you the
details tomorrow. Good night."
After a few words, Claire hung up the phone. There is cold light in her eyes, "Lily, you are finished
tomorrow!
The next morning, as soon as Lily went downstairs, Claire came over to her and held her arm. "Sister,
I'm sorry. It was my fault last night. I shouldn't have questioned you. Don't be mad at me, okay?"
Lily was stunned for a moment, then she smiled and answered, "How could I be angry with my sister?
Let's have breakfast, or we'll be late for school."
"Well, sister, if I have some questions about learning, can I ask you?"
"Of course!" Lily answered with a smile. But she was wondering that what Claire wanted to do next.
When they walked to the table, Eden had finished eating and just got up and leave. Just at this
moment, Lily just saw the dark circle of the eye on his face. Does he stay up late to study at night?
After they finished breakfast, they got in Tom's car, but Eden wasn't in it. Claire could not help but ask,
"Tom, where is my brother?"
"Mr. Eden has gone to school." Tom replied respectfully.
"Well, let's go."
Hearing that, Lily raised her eyebrows invisibly. It seems that Eden was upset by her examination
results this time.
At this moment, Lily finally knew what Claire want to do. Lily didn't expect that she would invite men to
hit her, especially four boys!
"Terence Qin, it's her. She kept bullying me. It was her who asked someone to hit me last time." Claire
said angrily. She held Terence's arm with one hand and pointed at Lily with the other.
Looking at the boy who was held by Claire, and then look at the other three boys, Lily did not know if
she should laugh, but she laughed extremely sarcastically. "Claire, is this why you drag me here?"
"Well, it's all because of you. Dad don't like me and brother anymore. My mom and dad even quarreled
with each other and we were at odds with each other. I won't rob you of anything and I won't fight
against you. But you even hired someone to hit and threaten me. I'll pay you back this time!"
"Huh." Lily didn't know what should do. Her sister was quite good at talking nonsense.
Today she should not be able to run away. This is the most remote place in the school and it is almost
impossible to call for help successfully.
"Claire, how much injury do you want her to suffer?" Glancing at Lily, Terence asked Claire casually.
"Of course, she must be seriously injured. You don't know that last time I was beaten by her and laid on
the bed for a few days. I couldn't move with injuries on my face." Claire said exaggeratedly.
"Ok." Terence nodded and turned to the other three men, "Brothers, you can hurt her now. Don't make
her disabled."
"Okay, Terence." The three hooligans besieged Lily.
Look at this situation, Lily feel afraid and subconsciously shrink neck, escape? She certainly can't
escape, but reasonable? It didn't work at all to speak with people like Claire!
When Lily was thinking about how to escape, one of the gangsters sneakily attacked from behind and
kicked her on her calf.
"Ah!" Lily lost her balance and fell down to the ground. Before she could get up from the ground, the
fists came directly to her face. She held her head with conditioned response and screamed for help.
"Help!"
To her surprise, she heard a cry of pain before the fists landed on her body.
"Oh! Too painful... "
