“Janet is the savior of Class F!” Everyone’s praise for her grew when they heard her.
“She’s so amazing that she could even guess the questions!”
Next to them, the other students who overheard them couldn’t help but roll their eyes, thinking, The students of Class F? Even if you people were to copy the answers, you won’t even get it right. Savior? She’s more like a jinx than a savior. Just wait for the moment when you lose and have to clean the toilets for a month.
“Janet!” The Beasts dashed over like a gust of wind and dragged her to a corner. “Boss, we knew how to answer the questions this time!” They rejoiced with shimmering eyes.
Casting them a calm look, she asked, “Really?”
“Yes, all four of us managed to answer all the questions!” They then looked at her in anticipation, hoping for her praise. It was obvious what they were up to but she responded composedly, “Oh, that’s great. All the best!”
That’s all? They were dumbfounded. That’s all she has to say? “Aren’t you even going to praise us, Boss?” They pestered and stood so close to her that they almost glued themselves to her.
Pushing them aside in annoyance, she said nonchalantly, “Look for Lara and pick out a favorite weapon for yourselves.”
Their eyes almost popped out of their sockets at her generosity. “Boss, you’re too kind!” They then proceeded to hug her but she managed to dodge their advances.
Turning her head, she saw Gordon pacing toward them. “How did you do in the exam?”
“It was alright,” he replied with a frown.
Stunned, The Beasts looked at him and said, “No way; we all felt that the questions were very easy this time.”
“Don’t say anything,” Janet pointed out to them and they held their tongues as they looked at their surroundings. Understanding the situation, they whispered, “It’s not a good place to chat as they are all students from Class A.”
After they had left, Emily from Class A gloated, “Even Gordon didn’t do well in the exam, so how could those pests have the cheek to say that the questions were easy?”
“They were merely bragging!” the other Class A students agreed.
“Gordon had been led astray by those pests!”
“Exactly, why would an outstanding person like him hangout with Janet and her gang?”
“This vixen must have smitten him with some tricks.”
“That’s really low of her,” Emily uttered, despising Janet from the bottom of her heart.
Meanwhile, Janet, Gordon, Abby and The Beasts went to the pantry and Abby asked Gordon with an expectant face, “Gordon, did you really do badly in the test?”
Looking at her flushed chubby face through his lowered eyes, he saw the anticipation in her eyes and he muttered, “There was an important question which I didn’t answer because I ran out of time.”
Everyone else was speechless but Abby chuckled lightly. “A genius sure has exceptionally high expectations of himself!”
An inexplicable blush washed over his face. “Usually, I would’ve gotten a full score for sure.”
“Let’s go!” Janet urged awkwardly as she could tell from his tone that he really didn’t do well in the test. Looks like the people in Class A must be over the moon about this.
In the afternoon, Abby, together with a few girls from Class F, were pestering Janet, saying that they wanted to buy her a meal to thank her for the help. While she walked ahead with a few girls, the student from Class F trailed behind and babbled happily.
“If we really don’t have to clean the toilet this time, it’s all thanks to Janet!”
“What would you like to eat, Janet? We’ll treat you.”
“Yeah, let’s go to a restaurant to eat.”
“By the way, we’ve never had a meal together even though we’ve been classmates for such a long time in Class F.”
Initially, Janet wanted to reject their invitation but she finally caved in and nodded helplessly after their endless groveling. “Alright then.”
They ended up going to the Leaping Dragon Hotel for a meal as per Janet’s suggestion and she had booked the presidential suite.
