"That's right, I object! She can't even read, so how could she have gotten an A-plus? We all know the teacher is just showing blatant favoritism!" the student cried out.
Teacher Zhang was so furious he felt like punching him twice.
"Teacher, there's no need to be so upset. The Crown Prince and I made a bet. We'll soon find out if I cheated," Ye Qianning said.
'The best way to prove myself is to silence them with my skill.'
"A bet? What bet?" Teacher Zhang asked.
"The loser gets kicked out of Lou Mountain Academy. But if I lose, it won't just be about leaving Lou Mountain—it'll be my head, too," Ye Qianning said, pointing to her head.
Qian Fanji's placid eyes stirred at her words.
"You... why did you have to bet your head?" Teacher Zhang asked, stunned.
"I was afraid they wouldn't dare take the bet if the stakes were too low." 'If I scared them off, it wouldn't be any fun.'
