“I won’t do that. If I plead on his behalf, I’m worried he’ll die faster.”
It was Yi Juncheng’s turn to laugh. “Yangyang, you saw through me.”
After a pause, he said, “Don’t you have anything else to ask me?”
“No.” Sheng Yang closed the book and looked at him. “I have faith in you.”
Yi Juncheng spread his hands and rested his arms on the back of the chair. “In that case, I don’t have to be jealous.”

On the day of the mechanical research petition…
When Sheng Yang got up, she stretched lazily. Sister Qian knocked on the door and walked in. “Miss, you’ve been pletely isolated by the academy, so they didn’t even tell you the time of the petition. They left in a car sent by the academy. But don’t worry, Mr. Kang had already expected this. He’s always concerned about you. As your all-rounded housekeeper, I’ve already arranged everything.”
When they went downstairs, Sheng Yang looked at the car parked at the door. Her eyebrows twitched, and her head hurt. “Sister Qian, are you serious?”
Sister Qian looked stern and impartial. “Since they’re bullying the Kang family like this, the Kang family will naturally return the favor. An eye for an eye. We have to show off.”
She opened the door and pushed Sheng Yang into the car. “Miss, you’re too kind.”
Sister Qian didn’t know how badly she would regret this sentence later. Countless times, she wished she could turn back time and not say such things.
In the car, Sheng Yang was in no mood to read. After a while, she said to the driver, “Just drop me off here.”
The driver was obviously Sister Qian’s trusted aide. Without looking back, he nodded at Sheng Yang in the rearview mirror. “Okay, Miss.”
With that, the black car drove straight through everything.
Sheng Yang: “…”

Several elite mechanical teachers were sitting in the high-end van sent by Lanca Academy. They were chatting.
“Haha, I didn’t even tell her the time and place. Let’s see how she’ll participate.”
“Once we’re there, how will we explain it to Team Leader Ding?”
“Just say that she forfeited and is too afraid to e. We’re telling the truth. In that case, her score won’t affect our Lanca Academy’s total score.”
“That’s true. We must sacrifice our ego for the bigger picture. We all understand this, but that ignorant young girl is stubborn.”
In a corner, there was a woman sitting alone. She pushed her round glasses up her nose. She was holding a book in her hand. The title was shocking—’High Emotional munication’.
The lines on the page she was reading were, ‘For topics that everyone has already agreed on, you have to loudly voice your agreement as well. That way, you’ll feel closer to others. Moreover, you have to add more icing to the cake. Add some points to prove that the other party is right. Note that you can’t deliberately flatter them. You have to make them think that you’re sincere.’
She stared at the lines, reading them over and over again. The lenses of her glasses reflected a strange light.
She slammed the book shut and walked over. “Aren’t you guys going too far?”
The male teachers were laughing their heads off, but they stopped abruptly. Looking at her and thinking about the Tong family behind her, they immediately felt that they couldn’t afford to offend her.
The Tong family was now on par with the Kang family. They even showed signs of surpassing them!
