Take for instance, at this very moment, Qiqi walks up to Cheng Run, gives a light laugh, and with an inquisitive gaze, asks, "Cheng Run, what brings you here? Aren't you usually at cram school every weekend?"
Cheng Run breaks out a slight smile, but it doesn't quite reach her eyes, coldly she says, "Skipping cram school once in a while isn't a big deal."
"Really? But isn't that unwarranted? You, being so fond of studying, what happens if you don't attend and let the gap widen further?" By 'gap', Qiqi was referring to the difference in grades between Xia Youyang and Cheng Run.
Xia Youyang and Cheng Run weren't just first and second in their class, but also first and second in the entire grade.
Unfortunately, Cheng Run being the second-best, was always dozens, even hundreds of points behind the scholar, Xia Youyang.
