The Useless Heiress Is Actually A Bigshot-Chapter 186 - Betting
Chapter 186 -186 Betting
In that instant, Shen Yixue was also stunned. Clearly, she hadn’t expected to run into Zhong Niangyao here.
If there was one person she never wanted to see in her life, it was certainly Zhong Niangyao. Now, she hated Zhong Niangyao the most because if it hadn’t been for Zhong Niangyao exposing her in public, she wouldn’t have almost lost everything.
Previously, even though she was admitted as a special recruit, she was also popular at Tenglong Academy. Many sons of the wealthy families appreciated her, and their daughters were willing to get close to her.
But ever since that incident, her reputation at Tenglong Academy had plummeted. Even Chen Lianlian, who had always been friendly with her, now avoided her.
If it weren’t for her resourcefulness and the way she managed to please Chen Lianlian again, her situation at Tenglong Academy would probably be even worse.
Now, suddenly seeing Zhong Niangyao, who had caused her such misery, how could her mood possibly be good?
However, although she hated Zhong Niangyao to the bone, Shen Yixue was no fool and naturally didn’t want to have any conflict with Zhong Niangyao anymore.
So, she just wanted to pretend she didn’t see her and hurriedly leave.
Zhong Niangyao thought the same; she didn’t want to talk more with Shen Yixue either because that would just be a waste of words.
The two of them rarely shared the same idea, which was a good thing.
However, Chen Lianlian became a variable. She pulled Shen Yixue straight up to Zhong Niangyao.
Being blocked, Zhong Niangyao got a bit upset. She frowned, “A good dog doesn’t stand in the way!”
When facing Shen Yixue and Chen Lianlian, she didn’t think she needed to maintain her manners. After all, being too polite in front of people who lacked manners would be disadvantageous.
Meanwhile, Shen Yixue, who kept holding Chen Lianlian’s hand, whispered something as if she wanted to leave quickly. However, clearly, Chen Lianlian did not want to leave just like that.
“Zhong Niangyao, how can you speak like that?” Chen Lianlian exploded like a lit firecracker, nearly jumping up, “We just came over to say hello, what right do you have to insult us like that?”
“Saying hello?”
Like hearing a joke, Zhong Niangyao scoffed a few times, then said, “Do you think our relationship is suitable for friendly greetings? Especially, don’t you see who is standing next to you? Would you be friendly to someone who stole from you?”

With just a simple mention of theft, Shen Yixue’s expression instantly soured; she hung her head, a flicker of hatred flashing in her eyes. This hatred was directed at both Zhong Niangyao and Chen Lianlian.
She hated Zhong Niangyao for bringing up this extreme humiliation, and also hated Chen Lianlian for dragging her up here, making her endure Zhong Niangyao’s insults.
“Zhong Niangyao, do you know how to talk at all?” Chen Lianlian almost pointed at Zhong Niangyao’s nose and cursed, “Xiao Xue did something wrong previously, but it was just momentary confusion, she has already reformed. Why do you keep holding onto this matter? Don’t you have any compassion?”
“My compassion definitely won’t be wasted on undeserving people,” Zhong Niangyao coldly responded, “Moreover, how you treat her is your business, just don’t drag others into it.”
“And, if you have time, then you should study hard and score well. Don’t waste my time here. You may not want to study, but I want to work hard.”
“You want to work hard,” Chen Lianlian laughed as if hearing a joke, “Zhong Niangyao, don’t think just because you painted the ‘Ten Thousand Miles of Mountains and Rivers’ you’re something special. Do you really think you’re a top student? With your level, you’ll definitely be at the bottom. Stop pretending to be a good student here!”
Every one of Zhong Niangyao’s exams placed her almost at the bottom. Although they weren’t in the same department, Chen Lianlian knew about her level. Hearing Zhong Niangyao’s intention to study hard now seemed like the biggest joke of the year to her.
Seeing Zhong Niangyao’s eyes flicker with a cold light, she smirked, “What? Can’t I study properly? I’ll tell you, the reason I used to perform poorly was that I didn’t focus entirely on my studies. Now that I’m focusing all my energies on studying, I’m definitely going to be among the top.”
“Zhong Niangyao, what kind of joke is this?” Chen Lianlian burst out laughing, “If you really can make it to the top ranks, then I’ll kneel down and apologize to you.”
She knew about Zhong Niangyao’s capabilities; it was simply impossible.
Apart from her face, Zhong Niangyao had no other strengths. Zhao Xuanglang didn’t know what he was thinking to have fallen for Zhong Niangyao and kept following her around.
No, it definitely wasn’t Zhao Xuanglang’s fault, it was Zhong Niangyao’s fault. Hadn’t she enticed Zhao Xuanglang just as she had followed Li Jingming around in the past?
Zhao Xuanglang didn’t know Zhong Niangyao’s true face, so he was continuously deceived.
“Lianlian, don’t say that,” Shen Yixue gently interjected, “Although Niangyao might not be good at studying, she is still a decent person. Also, she must have been studying hard recently, which is why she’s so confident today. You shouldn’t crush her confidence like that.”
“Confidence? Does she even have that?” Chen Lianlian sneered, her lips curving disdainfully, then she turned to Zhong Niangyao and continued,
“Zhong Niangyao, what I just said is true. If you can rank within the top ten in your department, that would indeed count as being among the top. Then, I will definitely kneel down and apologize to you.”
“But if you can’t do it, then you can no longer see Zhao Xuanglang.”
“Are you wanting to bet with me?” Zhong Niangyao couldn’t help but laugh, “Moreover, what business is it of yours? Why do you think that if you stop me from seeing Zhao Xuanglang, I will actually stop seeing him?”
“You— ” Chen Lianlian was at a loss for words, “Zhong Niangyao, don’t you also lack confidence that you can perform well?”
On the side, Shen Yixue pulled Chen Lianlian’s hand, “Lianlian, let’s go ahead and leave. Niangyao surely has her own thoughts. If she doesn’t agree, we can’t force her.”
“Zhong Niangyao, I just think you don’t dare,” Chen Lianlian pressed hurriedly. “This means you don’t have confidence in yourself, right?”
