The Long-awaited Mr Han

Honestly, a lot of was going on right now. Once she finished her finals, she had to worry about the movie too.

"Hmph! A bunch of bumbling clowns won't amount to anything!" Pan Xue scoffed coldly. They were all busy being bitter about it and trying to drag Lu Man down, but they didn't even know that Lu Man was completely ignoring them.

Zheng Yuanshi smiled and said, "Your kungfu at pissing people off sure is formidable."

"Huh?" Lu Man blinked in surprise, confused by what Zheng Yuanshi meant. "I'm not trying to infuriate anybody. I'm really not able to care about them."

Zheng Yuanshi: "…"

It was precisely how serious Lu Man was about ignoring them and that was the most infuriating, alright?

Those students who were rather close to them and happened to overhear Lu Man's words were furious beyond compare.

For so long, they had been dissing her but Lu Man didn't even pay heed to them!

"Why are you pretending!"

"What's there to be so proud of!"

Han Leilei couldn't hold back any longer and said, "They are being too overboard!"

Finally annoyed, Lu Man placed her book down. She stood up and turned to look at those people who couldn't stop talking about her.

"There's nothing for me to pretend, and there's nothing for me to be proud of. I'm just revising my studies. As for how I'm studying, and how my grades will turn out, we'll see once the exam results are out. Right now, all of you are just here busy trying to be cool, looking down on me, I hope that when the results are out, you guys won't do worse than me. By then I really do want you to see how I'm when I'm proud," Lu Man riposted.

"We won't do as well as you in the exams?" Someone sniggered, "Haha, I do want to see what kind of grades you'll get. Don't blow your trumpet right now and make such big promises, and in the end, have them slap you in the face!"

"I never make empty promises." Lu Man looked at her coldly. "Fan Xiyue, right? If I get better grades than you, I won't ask you to apologize for what you said today. However, if you see me in the future, please lower your head, and don't let me see your face."

"Why?" Zheng Yuanshi asked subconsciously.

"Because by then she would feel so shameless and would have lost her face," Lu Man replied lightly and <anno data-annotation-id="3c743d0f-95bb-4783-9dad-f2c62df8f55c">casually</anno>.

Pfft!

Lu Man sure had a wicked mouth!

"You!" Fan Xiyue was extremely livid, and shot daggers at Lu Man. "Fine, just you wait! I really want to see your grades!"

"Hmph! Don't make such empty promises and be boastful right now. When you really can't beat us with your grades, you will end up slapping yourself in the face with your words."

"That's right, don't think that just because you acted in a movie, you are very talented. When you film a movie, you can have many takes, but it's different from a live performance. During the examination, there will be a live performance and the teacher won't give you a chance if you NG."

"Haha," Lu Man laughed coldly. She didn't continue to bother with them and went back to revising her work instead.

"Xiaoying, I really can't stand how obnoxious she is," Yu Jingxian proclaimed loudly, "You definitely can beat her in the exams. Let her know how ridiculous and what a joke she is."

"That's right!" Zhuang Tingting supported her and spoke loudly too, "Otherwise, some people would forever remain so conceited."

Zhang Xiaoying pursed her lips. She was gloating inwardly and very happy, but instead she said, "Try to be quiet and keep a low profile. We aren't so full of ourselves like some people."

"Xiaoying, you are too humble." Somebody else said, "When you keep a low-profile, other people will think that they are oh so amazing."

"Xiaoying, you don't have to keep a low profile. We all know your grades. Back then you got into the university after securing first place in Cultural Studies and Professional Performance. Yet, someone here has the cheek to be so boastful in front of you, it sure is ridiculous!"

"Enough!" Pan Xue roared angrily. "Did Lu Man offend you? Why is every single one of you being so bitter and dragging her down? She's just quietly and peacefully studying at the corner, and has never said anything. Yet one after another, all of you just keep talking and talking non-stop. She just rebutted you guys a little, and you're even unhappy about it? Oh, so is it that only you guys are allowed to deride Lu Man, but Lu Man is not allowed to retort? Who do you think you are! The king of the world?"
