Chapter 187 Does Elm Like Her

Elm, who used to be relatively normal, now seemed to be acting crazy.

His character was never bad, so it was unclear where this sudden temper was coming from.

She had no relationship with him, so she had no control over his actions.

If he continued to let his resentment go unchecked, he would definitely suffer in the future.

The Olympiad Math exam was approaching, and Eileen couldn’t think about anything else.

After school that day, Eileen went to the enrichment program, only to be told that the test the night before was a screening, and only three students would be selected in the end.

Now, out of the original twenty students, only ten remained.

Competition had always been brutal, and achieving success was not easy.

The results from the previous night were posted on the blackboard.

As expected, Eileen came out on top.

“Having connections really does wonders, huh? She didn’t come for half a month and still managed to get first place. What are we even doing here? We paid over ten for the train ticket and traveled for five to six hours, and we have to return tomorrow.”

“Stop being jealous. It’s your fault for not having a capable boyfriend! Us poor folks should feel lucky to be here.”

“Ah, let’s not talk about it anymore!”

When they saw Eileen, they all immediately fell silent.

The sarcastic words and implicit glances made it seem like they were all mocking something,

Eileen calmly swept her gaze across the room. “I earned my place through my own merit. What gives you the right to belittle me? If you feel that the last exam was unfair, we can always take it again.”
