"Holy shit, has Lin Chen gone mad? The guy who's never attended a single class is actually going to compete with Lü Mingwei on a test."
"Sigh, it's over, our class hunk is about to fall from grace. How's he going to lift his head after being rolled out of the classroom?"
"Haha, even Lin Chen has days like this. I'm going to record this and post it on the school forum."
Whispers of discussion traveled through the crowd, with worry, ridicule, and many schadenfreude-filled spectators eager to see Lin Chen make a fool of himself.
Zuo Siqi stood by with a smile that could light up the room, her face always wearing an expression of amusement as if she wasn't the slightest bit worried for Lin Chen.
Under normal circumstances, seeing Lin Chen challenge Lü Mingwei, Zuo Siqi should have stepped in to stop him, or at least worn a worried expression on her face.
