Chapter 61: Chapter 61 Awakening
For students, talways seems to fly by.
Monthly exams, midterms, finals—before you realize it, the semester is already over.
After the midterm, Yun Shifei’s grades in all subjects finally reached the passing line.
This time, the exams followed the sscoring standards as the college entrance exams. A math test out of 150
points, and she actually scored 93. Looking at this score, Yun Shifei was moved to tears.
Indeed, hard work does pay off!
Song Yang glanced at her test paper and curled his lips. Who would've thought? The dumb eyesore he had
mocked before now kept improving her grades step by step.
He no longer had the qualifications to tease her the way he used to.
Seeing how Yun Shifei’s dedication bore tangible results gave Song Yang an unexpected urge to study.
After all, she had told him that Yun Sisi liked boys who were good at studying.
Since the incident at the gym, Yun Sisi hadn't spoken to him.
She used to treat him like any other person, but now, whenever she saw him, she'd rather take a detour to avoid
him.
And he, after being thoroughly reprimanded by his parents, didn’t dare to approach Yun Sisi so easily.
He feared making his parents angry again.
Even a Great Demon King has moments of fear.
He was terrified that Yun Sisi would drift further and further away from him.
But after seeing Yun Shifei’s grades improve significantly, Song Yang cup with a plan.
"Hey, transfer student, how’d you get such good grades? You didn’t cheat, did you?" The moment class meeting
ended, Song Yang couldn't wait to confront Yun Shifei.
"If you cheated, could you even manage results like these?"
One sentence, and Song Yang was left speechless.
This girl, she was getting sharper and sharper.
But since he needed help, Song Yang had to stay patient.
"Well then, could you teachhow to study?"
Yun Shifei saw the sincerity on Song Yang's face. Honestly, she really didn’t want to deal with someone like him.
It would only bring her more trouble.
Besides, she was only half-learned herself—how could she teach him?
But then, Song Yang looked at her earnestly and said, "If | becsuccessful academically, I'll grant you one
request."
Recently, he had been hooked on a wildly popular martial arts . The male lead, a legendary hero, often
made promises like this.

Song Yang thought saying something like this was incredibly cool.
Yun Shifei was a little skeptical. "Really?"
"A gentleman’s word is his bond."
Seeing the sincerity in his expression, Yun Shifei thought about it and decided to give him the benefit of the
doubt, just this once.
"Alright, but I won't tell you the request right now—I’ll ask you when the tcomes."
"Deal!" Song Yang thought to himself, hopefully, Yun Shifei would soon forget about this promise. That way, he'd
get the credit without any bothersfollow-ups.
Looking squarely at Yun Shifei, he said, "Alright then, teachhow you study."
"Let's start with math first."
After all, for other subjects, like humanities, she hadn't really invested as much time.
But math—that was something she had worked very hard on.
She handed a notebook of wrong answers to Song Yang. "Look at this. | went through all the mistakes I'd made
and redid every single problem."
Song Yang stared at the notebook. It was filled with colorful annotations and had problems cut out directly from
test papers and pasted inside.
This...
He felt dizzy, his limbs weak—he even felt a little nauseous.
He couldn’t fathom how Yun Shifei did it. Surely, it must have taken extraordinary effort?
When the exam results were announced, Yun Sisi wasn’t surprised at all.
Once again, her performance was stellar.
First in the grade for Chinese, third for math, and among the top for English.
Her overall score placed her fifth in the grade.
Yun Sisi’s lips curved slightly. She basked in the teacher's praise and the envious gazes of her classmates.
Mu Jiayu, who shared a desk with Yun Sisi, glanced at her own scores. Ranked 28th in the class overall. Then she
looked over at Yun Sisi’s results.
She couldn't help but feel a pang of envy.
They were in the best class among all the first years.
Every student here, if placed in any other class, would easily be at the top.
But in this class, you might land in the top ten one exam, and slide to the bottom in the next.
Their scores were all so close, which only made Yun Sisi’s brilliance stand out even more.
Truly, comparisons can be disheartening.
Look at Yun Sisi—consistently ranking in the top five of the class.
Not only that, but she was also beautiful and an amazing dancer.
Mu Jiayu couldn't help but admire her.
"Sisi, how do you study? Could you teach me?"
Yun Sisi smiled at her. "You already know. | just complete all the work the teachers assign, step by step."
If someone else had said this, Mu Jiayu would have dismissed it entirely.
But coming from Yun Sisi—someone with the shigh IQ as her brother—it seemed believable. Her brother
could often stay late playing basketball after school and yet still excel academically.
So when Yun Sisi said this, Mu Jiayu believed her.
Under the admiring gaze of Mu Jiayu, Yun Sisi rubbed her temples lightly.
In truth, was she really that smart?
Every night, she secretly stayed up studying until one or two in the morning.
But that was a secret nobody knew.
She had to maintain her image carefully.
"Sisi, are you... really dating my brother?" Mu Jiayu asked, suddenly steering the conversation into gossip about
Yun Sisi and Mu Chengzhu.
"No," Yun Sisi denied it, though her face turned a little shy.
Recently, she hadn’t had many opportunities to meet Mu Chengzhu. Only on weekends did the two of them plan
to take walks together.
But that was all—just walks.
It seemed as though both of them understood the feelings they had, but neither had pierced the veil.
"Don’t be so shy. | think you and my brother are a great match," Mu Jiayu teased her.
"Our school doesn’t allow dating," Yun Sisi said seriously.
She still remembered how a couple

You could skip class or even cut school—but early dating? Never.
At this thought, Yun Sisi suddenly
recalled how close she had cto

Chehy Lie as being in a relationship.
Why hadn't it worked out in the end?
Ah, that’s right! Yun Shifei had started acting differently around that time.
At the time, Yun Sisi hadn’t thought much about it. But now, she couldn't help but reflect deeply on it.
She had planned for the perfect scenario: bursting into the room to find Yun Shifei disheveled on the floor.
Cheng Lie would be right next to her.
That scene alone would have been enough to ignite suspicion among everyone.
But what had actually happened when she entered the room?

Instead, Yun Shifei had somehow anticipated their intentions and left with Cheng Lie.
Her entire plan was rendered useless.
At that moment, Yun Shifei must've already known exactly what she was trying to do!
Thinking about it now, Yun Sisi broke into a cold sweat.
No, she had to get to the bottom of this!
