Dedicated to studying, yet forced into a chaotic situation.

Chapter 197 Good grades are great!

In the new semester, Shi Sui attended classes diligently, studied earnestly, and waited patiently for the system to credit her account.

More than a month passed quickly.

When the opening exam results came out, Shi Sui beat Shangguan Ying and her score was second only to Xu Chaomu.

The students were already used to Shi Sui's outstanding grades, and the school leaders even invited Shi Sui to share her learning experience in the auditorium.

What experience can I have?

If anyone had access to a system that allowed them to get rich quick through learning, wouldn't they study it like crazy?!

What's amazing about her isn't her grades, it's that she has the best system.

For more than a month, Shi Sui's popularity on campus remained extremely high. She received the most chocolates on Valentine's Day, from both boys and girls.

Besides that, Xinghua also made one person famous.

Jiang Tianyao.

Unlike Shi Sui, whose popularity only existed within the school, Jiang Tianyao participated in "Campus Good Voice" and passed the preliminary round after the audition!

This is a prime-time TV program. Because of her sweet appearance and pleasant voice, she became a minor internet sensation. Jiang Tianyao accepted several interviews and filming opportunities.

[The most beautiful contestant on Campus Voice! Jiang Tianyao is beautiful and has a sweet voice; a stunning campus beauty!]

A sweet girl fell from the sky; she's beautiful and sings even better!

[Jiang Tianyao on stage, a radiant forest sprite!]

……

A pure and beautiful high school student who can sing, dance, and even showcase her piano talent on stage.

But he's not a music student; he's an academic student with outstanding grades!

Such a beautiful girl with multiple talents and excellent grades attracted a lot of attention when she first appeared on the show, and even made it to the trending searches when the show started.

At school, Jiang Tianyao once again felt the same way she used to be, the center of attention.

After being dragged away by bodyguards at the parent-teacher meeting, Jiang Shu lost face and didn't mention it once she got home.

But no secret is completely sealed; the bodyguard was still a member of the Chi family, and the news spread quickly.

People in the circle are saying that the Jiang family has offended the Chi family.

The Jiang family was thrown into a panic, and the Wen family also canceled the marriage alliance, inevitably leading to a decline in the Jiang family's finances.

The Jiang family no longer dared to approach Shi Sui, fearing repercussions from the Chi family.

I lived in constant fear for a while, worrying about going bankrupt every day.

Just then, Jiang Tianyao became a minor internet sensation.

The Jiang family realized the importance of traffic and, as a last resort, invested money to promote Jiang Tianyao.

Unexpectedly, it actually worked. In addition, the Chi family did not target the Jiang family, and before long, the Jiang family's business returned to normal and showed a positive trend.

After class, Shi Sui and Song Xinying went to the school's milk tea shop to buy milk tea.

It's a new milk tea shop that opened on campus this semester. It's very popular with students, and there's always a queue every time I go.

Another monthly exam has ended. Song Xinying said, "Sui Sui, you were only 4 points behind the top student this time. I feel like you can really beat him and become the top student in the grade."

"Thank you for your kind words. I will try my best to get first place in the grade next time."

She was 8 points short of the last exam, and 4 points short this time. Shi Sui is very confident in herself.

The two chatted while waiting for their milk tea. After last semester, Song Xinying discovered that her favorite subject was art, so she planned to apply to the top art school abroad. Recently, she has been busy with her portfolio.

Song Xinying: "Then, Sui Sui, why don't you study abroad with me? With your level, getting an IELTS score of 8 or higher shouldn't be a problem."

Shi Sui shook her head: "I don't have any plans to go abroad for the time being."

Song Xinying: "If you stay in China, the best schools are Tsinghua and Peking University. Sui Sui, you will definitely be able to get in."

Shi Sui smiled and said, "I'll try my best."

Then I heard someone speaking behind me.

"What good are good grades? The era of changing one's destiny through studying is long gone."

"That's right. The value of a degree from Tsinghua or Peking University isn't as high as it used to be. You might not even be able to find a job after graduating."

"We live in the internet age. A celebrity can earn a day's worth of money, but many people can't earn that much in a lifetime."

"..."

Shi Sui turned around and unexpectedly saw Jiang Tianyao and several girls around her.

She hadn't seen Jiang Tianyao at school for a long time.

Especially Jiang Tianyao, who was wearing her school uniform—didn't she dislike school uniforms?

Jiang Tianyao recently established a "top student" persona online, gaining a new wave of fans. Today, she specially went back to her school to take a set of campus photos.

She found a few average-looking girls and took some pictures with them. Right after the photos were taken, she invited them to go for milk tea.

That's when I happened to run into Shi Sui.
