Li Yang’s expression was solemn. He knew that this was not a simple matter, but seeing Hu Jian’s calm expression, he was relieved.
He gave the breakfast to the two of them.
Then, he cast his gaze on the table next to Hu Jian. His expression suddenly turned cold.
“This…who did this?!”
Hu Jian looked at his gaze and knew what he wanted to ask. She said indifferently, “Let’s talk after the exam. It’s not a big deal.”
She stuffed the answer back into her table pocket. She took the lead and walked out, bringing them to the Examination Hall of the Math Olympiad Competition.
Looking at Hu Jian, who was not affected at all, Cheng Weiyu calmed down.
On the other side, before arriving at the Examination Hall.
Yang Si poured a small packet of white powder into Wang Xin’s usual drinking cup.
She did not stay submissive for a month and a half for nothing.
Yang Si shook the drinking cup evenly, sneered, and put it back in its original position.
Wang Xin was used to drinking water before exams to calm herself down, even if the exam was not important to her.
This habit was deeply ingrained and Yang Si only discovered it after observing it for a long time.
…
The competition was held in their school’s Auditorium, it was open and fair.
When Hu Jian arrived, there was exactly one minute before the exam officially began.
Wang Xin and the other students had been waiting in the Auditorium for a long time.
When the teacher saw them coming, he hurriedly let them take their seats.
What surprised Hu Jian was that the third person in Wang Xin’s group was actually Yang Si. She had never been named.
Her results had never been very good. If she did not have a strong guarantee, such as knowing the answer, Wang Xin would definitely not let her go… This combination further confirmed Hu Jian’s suspicions.
Wang Xin glanced at them from the corner of her eyes and then looked away.
As the exam bell rang, Wang Xin indeed picked up the drinking cup on the table and took a sip.
Hu Jian gave a few simple reminders to the two of them. In Qiao Han’s eyes, she was talking and laughing with Li Yang and the others.
Qiao Han’s eyes became even colder.
He glanced at the two teammates beside him but his attention was never on the two of them.
The intense competition lasted for three hours.
If it were not for the steamed buns that Li Yang bought, Hu Jian felt that she might have fainted from hunger.
As Lin Yan had been so busy leaving early and returning late recently, he did not have time to cook. As such, Hu Jian did not have any breakfast.
Lin Yan gave her a sum of money for food, but she saved it all up.
The most crucial way to break away from the control of such a strange relationship was financial independence.
Other than wanting to gather information, this was also one of the reasons why she went to work at Sister Yu’s Bistro.
Although she knew a lot of things in her previous life, she could not easily expose them.
Like those hacking techniques where her style was too obvious. Other than her, no one else would do that.
Imagine how strange it would be for a supposedly dead person to be active on the internet a few months after she passed away.
…
The exam went very smoothly. It was basically all the type of questions that Hu Jian had done before. They solved it without much effort.
While Wang Xin and the others were still discussing half of the exam papers, Hu Jian had already put down her pen.
Wang Xin calmly asked Yang Si to fill in the answers.
The reason why she pretended to discuss was actually to create the authenticity of the answers.
Qiao Han disdained such behavior. He concentrated on his own part. Wang Xin did not care. Anyway, after they were done, they would still have to check the answers. At that time, Yang Si would just have to revise the answers.
Just when Wang Xin thought that she was sure to win, she suddenly felt a restless fire in her lower abdomen.
The effect of the aphrodisiac medicine was very fast. Before Wang Xin could react, she took off her coat unknowingly.
Her cheeks and whole body were hot.
Soon, wave after wave of heat took over her brain and her legs instantly became weak.
Seeing this, Yang Si asked with concern, “What’s wrong?” However, there was not a trace of concern in her eyes.
At this time, if Wang Xin still did not know what had happened, then she would be too stupid.
She knew how powerful the medicine she gave was.
She glared at Yang Si and trembled with anger. “How dare you…!”
Yang Si looked back with pure and innocent confusion. “What’s wrong, Sister Wang?”
Hu Jian had noticed the commotion when Wang Xin had just made an abnormal move.
She stood aside and watched, pulling Li Yang and Cheng Weiyu along to watch the joke with her.
Initially, she thought that Yang Si had forgotten about drugging Wang Xin. However, Yang Si was only waiting for the opportunity to do it to her.
She had courage, but this was not a smart move.
She was so brazen. When the matter was over, did Yang Si think she would have a good ending?
However, they had to watch the situation unfold seriously. Only then would they not miss out on the exciting scenes.
Hu Jian rested her chin on Cheng Weiyu’s shoulder and enjoyed the ‘show’ that Yang Si had brought to them..
