Love or Die CEO’s Daily Dose of Swoon

Chapter 199

Sweetheart was vehement, her voice slicing through the noise. "Does she have the guts to compete in the National Math Olympiad? If she doesn't, then she's just a fraud, right?"

The comments section was filled with people defending Cordelia:

"This is just stirring up trouble. Everyone knows that students with guaranteed admissions don't bother with exams or competitions anymore since they've already secured their spots."

"Totally agree. If they do well, it's expected. If they don't, people like you criticize them for getting a free pass. That's why most of them just relax and wait for college. Sweetheart is really showing her true colors here!"

-"Her expression is twisted with jealousy. She's the one who messed up, and now she's blaming others. We've been tricked into attacking the poor girl!"

The audience wasn't easily swayed by Sweetheart's rhetoric.

The unwritten rules of the scholarship circle were well known.

But Sweetheart kept pushing: "I don't care, Cordelia! Are you brave enough to enter the National Math Olympiad or not?"

Someone reported Sweetheart's stream, and when officials reviewed it, they saw her shouting, which ironically drew more viewers and boosted app downloads. They chose to ignore it for now, hoping to maximize the traffic.

#SweetheartGoesCrazy started trending, gaining more attention, especially after a retweet by the celebrity Bland.

Cordelia had been quietly reading, ignoring the online drama.

But when Sweetheart's taunts became too direct, she couldn't just sit back.

Being publicly insulted and not responding? That wasn't being indifferent; that was being a pushover!

So, after Little Parrot showed her the stream, Cordelia logged onto her social media and posted her fourth-ever tweet: a photo of her Math Olympiad registration form, dated two weeks prior, thanks to Mr. Latham's recommendation for a winter camp.

Her post was a direct hit to Sweetheart.

Instantly, Sweetheart's stream was bombarded with comments:
