Shen Zhilan gave a wry smile.
However, now was not the time to regret, because the girls around had already started pointing fingers at her. Gossiping was a girl’s favorite hobby. Very soon, the news that she failed Chen Zifan would spread all over the Internet.
Shen Zhilan did not want to bear the blame. In order to protect herself, she said casually, “But without me, you won’t have enough people.”
Yang Ming was stunned. “What did you say?”
Shen Zhilan lowered her eyes. “Chen Zifan is outstanding, but since he was a freshman, he was too bossy and did whatever he wanted! His temper is terrible and he gets angry at the drop of a hat. Try asking around and see who dares to join his design team?!”
Chen Zifan had always been one of the top dogs in school as well as a rebel.
“What are you talking about? Zifan has a bad temper, but he has the ability! I don’t believe that no one would want to join our team!”
He walked up to a girl and asked directly. “Would you like to join our team?”
The girl sneaked a glance at Chen Zifan.
Chen Zifan simply glanced at her impatiently, but the girl immediately shook her hands in horror. “I can’t, I can’t!”
Yang Ming looked at the rest of the female classmates, but they all stepped back and did not dare to look at him.
Shen Zhilan sneered. “See? I’ve always wanted to say this! Chen Zifan throws temper tantrums at every little thing. I’ve endured him for a long time over the years! Now that I’m not around, why don’t you try searching for someone willing to work with him?!”
Shen Yugui watched the situation and raised her eyebrows.
She did not expect Chen Zifan to be so unpopular.
When she saw his frowning face along with his tightly pursed lips even though he was acting indifferent, Shen Yugui’s lips hooked up.
Shen Zhilan continued. “Besides, Chen Zifan stayed up all night for a whole month for the optimization, but he has gotten nowhere so far. The deadline is still a few days away, but our optimization has already been completed! No one will be willing to join you now!”
When Shen Zhilan finished speaking, she looked at Chen Zifan smugly.
She would make Chen Zifan regret what he said in class today!
However, she did not think that a loathsome voice would suddenly speak.
“Who said no one was willing?”
Everyone turned their heads at the sound of the voice and saw Shen Yugui slowly emerge from the crowd.
Yang Ming looked at her like she was his lifeline. “Who-?”
Shen Yugui tilted her head. “Me!”
Yang Ming. “…”
“Hahaha!”
The crowd suddenly burst into laughter.
Shen Zhilan said, “You’re first place in class if we count from the bottom. You want to join the competition design team? Shen Congxin, is this a joke?”
Shen Yugui was silent for a moment. “No, I’m here to get extra credit.”
Shen Zhilan. “??”
Everyone else. “??”
Shen Yugui also had no choice. Chen Zifan helped her today, so she had to repay the favor.
Besides, her elder sister’s credits were not enough for her to graduate.
She checked and found that if they could win the first prize in the competition, the designers could gain 5 points!
As long as she got credit for all the courses this semester along with her thesis, it would be just enough for her to graduate!
Shen Yugui was thinking happily when she heard Chen Zifan say, “There are still a few days to go before the competition. We’ll find someone suitable.”
She looked at Chen Zifan only to see the arrogant expression of a chuunibyou. “I don’t need your sympathy.”
Shen Yugui. “??”
