Xia Chuyi sidestepped, avoiding Zhan Yi.
Zhan Yi, unable to cling to anyone, was slightly embarrassed, but she quickly recovered and said, "Chuyi, you don't have to be embarrassed. No one is perfect, right?"
"Mistakes happen; just work hard next term!" Zhan Yi said in a tone meant to be comforting, "To be honest with you, I don't think I did too well on this exam either."
Zhan Yi just kept talking, regardless of whether Xia Chuyi was listening.
"By the way, Chuyi, did you see my grades just now?" Suddenly, Zhan Yi's eyes flickered as she asked, "Aren't our names kind of close to each other on the list?"
Obviously, Zhan Yi must think that because she did poorly, Xia Chuyi must have also done poorly, and their rankings must be similar—both not so high.
This was exactly what Xia Chuyi had anticipated; Zhan Yi had performed poorly herself and wanted to drag her down for consolation.
Xia Chuyi was quite speechless.
