Chapter 403: Chapter 403: Completely Eliminate HerUpon learning that Shi Yaoguang had chosen Imperial Capital University, Quan Sicheng purposely avoided the same school. When Shi Yiqing heard that Quan Sicheng had chosen Shuimu University, she felt somewhat stifled, "Brother Sicheng, didn’t you say before that you wanted to go to Imperial Capital University? Why did you suddenly change your mind?" Quan Sicheng replied, "I think Shuimu University is not bad either." Shi Yiqing snorted lightly, "You wouldn’t be intentionally avoiding Shi Yaoguang, would you?" Quan Sicheng pursed his lips and stayed silent. This, in effect, was tantamount to an admission. Shi Yaoguang felt even more displeased. At the same time, she also firmed up an idea in her heart. Previously, when Leng Yuchen had come to her asking for help, she had agreed to it on the surface, but deep down she was thinking about not taking any risks. However, her duplicitous attitude had been provoked by Shi Yaoguang. Why should Shi Yaoguang be so fortunate? To take the college entrance exam a year early, and even become the top scholar? Her results, were even the highest among the national papers when combined with other regional papers. After a comprehensive evaluation, her title as the national top scholar was nearly unshakable. Maybe, she should be more confident and remove the word "nearly." With such an unshakable achievement, it was impossible for Shi Yiqing not to feel sour. For this reason, she had hogged the limelight and also crushed her even more thoroughly. The thought of being with Quan Sicheng and having an uncertain future of coming out on top, while Shi Yaoguang was eagerly sought after by all the major colleges, made her face flush with heat. There’s nothing more difficult to accept than seeing someone you have always looked down upon suddenly crushing you beneath them. Unable to stop herself from being crushed, she could only switch to another method. Quan Jinbei’s health was evidently failing. Since he wouldn’t live much longer anyhow, and her not acting against him wouldn’t matter, she naturally didn’t need to bother herself with him. Shi Yiqing thought clearly that to restore her past glory, there was only one way. That way was... to eliminate Shi Yaoguang! To completely get rid of her. But obviously, this was not going to be easy. Even so, she still planned to take the risk and try. The task that Leng Yuchen wanted her to do was targeted at Shi Yaoguang. As long as she followed Leng Yuchen’s instructions, she might succeed. Should she succeed, Shi Yaoguang would no longer be a threat. Thinking of this, her heart burned with fervor. ... Shi Yaoguang had no idea that Shi Yiqing was plotting to get rid of her. After confirming that she would go to Imperial Capital University, the results of the final exams had also come out. Having taken the college entrance exam early, Yaoguang naturally didn’t need to attend the finals. The results referred to Shi Yiqing’s. To describe Shi Yiqing’s performance with one word, it would certainly be... appalling. Last semester, Shi Yiqing’s results, though not exceptionally top-notch, at least maintained over six hundred points. But this time in the final exams, she had only scored four hundred points. After the Shi Family invested so much effort into her upbringing, was this the return she presented? When the Shi Family received the results notification from the school, both Shi Rusong and Wei Lan found it unbelievable. Their first reaction was that there must be a mistake with the grades. They were more willing to believe there was a problem with the school’s score entry system than accept that their diligently nurtured, excellent daughter had only scored six hundred points on her final exam. The grades of Shi Yiqing were simply not credible. Unfortunately, this pleasant illusion existed only in fantasy. Shi Yiqing had anticipated this, and she was not surprised by her own results. Still, she felt somewhat uneasy when facing her father and mother. Lately, Shi Rusong had obviously become less attentive toward her, his attitude toward her had cooled considerably. Wei Lan was the same. In fact, Shi Yiqing did not understand what she had done to upset her. The estrangement had come truly out of the blue. On the day the results were released, Shi Yiqing truly did not dare to go home. She had no face to face them. "Shi Yiqing, four hundred fifty-two points, won’t you explain?" As soon as she stepped in, a pillow was thrown at her. There on the couch sat Shi Rusong, his face full of anger. The look he gave her was filled with coldness. And... very evident disappointment. There was even a touch of contempt hidden within. And before, this had been Shi Yaoguang’s treatment! Shi Yiqing had not spoken before, but she had seen it very clearly. Shi Rusong had expressed a hidden disdain for his daughter, who had just been brought back from the countryside, not through his words, but in his heart. She had subtly used this to drive a wedge between them. She just had not expected that one day it would be her turn to face such a situation. Shi Rusong watched her with a cold gaze, and seeing that she remained silent for a while, his tone became even colder, "You’d better give me a reasonable explanation." Shi Yiqing stammered for a long time, unable to find an appropriate excuse. Searᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. She glanced at Wei Lan, standing to the side, hoping she would say something in her defense. Unfortunately, Wei Lan had no intention of helping her. At this moment, Wei Lan was looking at her with complex eyes. At that gaze, Shi Yiqing’s heart sank halfway. Suddenly, she scoffed, and her eyes took on a hint of sarcasm as she looked at them. "Dad, Mom, how would you like me to explain?" "Yes, I admit, my final exam grade was indeed not good, but is that a reason for you to interrogate me like this?" "Have you ever cared for me? Do you know what I have been through lately? I was detained for two months because of Shi Yaoguang, did you know that? What you want is not me, your daughter—you are driven only by vanity!" Shi Yiqing had always suppressed this thought, but now that she had spoken it aloud, she felt much more relieved. She sneered at the shocked looks from the two, "You don’t need to look at me like that, no matter how you look, I will still say what I need to say." "On the surface, you chose me over Shi Yaoguang." "But in reality? Your choice was purely motivated by self-interest! If I hadn’t outperformed her, would you still have chosen me?" "If I weren’t able to bring you greater benefits, you probably would have abandoned me long ago, wouldn’t you?" "Heh, I should have known, your kindness toward me was awaiting the returns I could bring you. You don’t care about me at all, so, when my grades faltered, the first thing you did was question me." Listening to Shi Yiqing’s emphatic words, Wei Lan felt a pang in her heart. "Shi Yiqing, do you have no conscience?" Her tone was filled with sorrow, the pain of being misunderstood, "You ask yourself, in what way has the Shi Family wronged you? You say we are driven by interest, but let me ask you, after Shi Yaoguang displayed her ability, did we ever contemplate replacing you with her?" "If we didn’t truly cherish you, our daughter, we could have done something for her, surrendered to her, but we didn’t! Didn’t you feel any of that at all?"
