Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

Huo Yao had no idea that because of the contest, the Vice Principal had categorized her as a delinquent student. Due to the rumor of her getting admission to the school through bribes, apart from her own classmates, even the students of the Rocket Classes and the average classes were beginning to judge her.

She had poor academic records and was only admitted because of some strong connections. She was such a shame to the school!

Such being the case, when her name appeared on the list of students participating in the National Quiz Contest on the notice board, the students started snickering. This was the funniest episode at the beginning of this semester.

[Dear God, who gave the transfer student the courage to sign up for the National Quiz Contest? Isn't she embarrassed?]

[Is she under the impression that she can pull strings at the National Quiz Contest as well?]

[I will bet one penny that she won't pass the preliminary contest.]

[Good heavens. I have a feeling that this time, the shame for our No.1 Middle School will reach far across the province and into the international stage.]

[Alas. Why can't she just enjoy being a piece of eye candy?]

…

When Meng Ying saw Huo Yao's name in the list, she was astonished.

"Sister Big Shot, didn't you say that you were not interested in the National Quiz Contest? You turned me down when I told you to sign up that day."

Meng Ying pouted in anger. Her moon-face became even chubbier, like a hamster.

Ever since she found out that Huo Yao would receive money every day, Meng Ying had been calling Huo Yao, Sister Big Shot, and now it had become a habit.

Huo Yao was confused. "Didn't you sign me up for it?"

Meng Ying blinked in sheer puzzlement. "I didn't. I hoped that you could participate, but I sure did not sign you up."

Huo Yao knitted her eyebrows. "Then who did?"

If she knew that it was not Meng Ying who had signed her up for it, she would have turned it down when Chen Yu called her to the office.

Meng Ying pulled her hair and stressed upon her innocence in this matter again. "Sister Big Shot, I did not sign up for you. You have to believe me."

Huo Yao looked at her calmly. "Ok, I believe you."

Meng Ying stuck her tongue out in relief. She was afraid that Huo Yao would not trust her. After all, participating in the National Quiz Contest was not a joking matter.

Meng Ying tilted her head and thought for a bit. Then, she began to tap into her detective skills. She analyzed the situation and said, "Is it possible that someone did this on purpose to see you embarrass yourself?"

Huo Yao gave no response and kept her eyes downwards.

"All the participants of the contest are straight-A students. Imagine this. Someone signed up for you assuming that your score is bad with the intention that you will disgrace the No.1 Middle School and will no longer be able to stay here. Sister Big Shot, think about it. Have you offended anyone recently?" Meng Ying crossed her arms in front of her chest. She had come straight to the heart of the issue.

Huo Yao remained composed. "Does it count if someone is envious of my good looks?"

She managed to use an earnest tone.

Meng Ying rolled her eyes at her. "Please take this seriously. I cannot analyze the problem when you are behaving like this."

Huo Yao looked at her and said, "Oh."

Then, she bent over her desk and closed her eyes.

Meng Ying, "…"

Sister Big Shot was different from other people in dealing with things, drastically so.

Meng Ying heaved a sigh. "Do you want to go to the Female Devil and explain this to her?"

The Female Devil was a nickname the students had given to Chen Yu behind her back.

Huo Yao answered without opening her eyes. "Nope."

That came as a surprise to Meng Ying. She wondered aloud. "Are you saying that you are going to participate in the contest?"
