143 The Bet’s In Place

“Why?” Sun Bin, who was more mature than his lackey, asked calmly.

Qiao Yue sneered. “Because it’s stupid.”

Sun Bin’s expression got increasingly sinister as he stared at Qiao Yue, but Qiao Yue only looked back at him expressionlessly.

Shortly after, Sun Bin walked up to Qiao Yue and whispered, “Qiao Yue, if you and Qiao Yu don’t want to be in any trouble, you’d better agree.”

Qiao Yue finally had an expression when she heard this. Coldness grew in her eyes as she replied, “Are you threatening me?”

!!

“Qiao Yue, both you and Qiao Yu have mobility problems now. No one can be blamed if the wheelchair malfunction and you roll down the stairs or onto the road.”

The madness in Sun Bin’s eyes was scary. Qiao Yue didn’t think that embarrassing a guy would make him crazy. However, there weren’t many people who dared to threaten her like this, so she found it interesting.

“Since there are better ways, why do we need to compete academically? Wouldn’t it be easier to just kill me?”

Sun Bin’s threat was vicious, but Qiao Yue was even more vicious. Her retort shocked Sun Bin and made him take a subconscious step back.

However, when Sun Bin saw the casual and roguish smile on Qiao Yue’s face, he wondered if he had heard wrong. Why did killing someone sound so casual coming from Qiao Yue’s mouth?

Although Sun Bin threatened Qiao Yue, he wasn’t stupid. He knew how risky it was to kill someone. But for the sake of his pride, he insisted, “Are we going to compete or not?”

Qiao Yue replied indifferently, “Since you’re so insistent, let’s compete!”

Sun Bin’s eyes lit up at Qiao Yue’s agreement. “It’s a deal then. We’ll compare our year-end results. Whoever with the lower ranking will drop out of Harvey.”

“What happens if you lose and don’t fulfill your promise?” Qiao Yue asked nonchalantly.

“How’s that possible? Our Brother Sun always keeps his word.” Sun Bin’s lackey interjected.

Qiao Yue glanced at the boy coldly. “Is the bet with you or with your Brother Sun?”

The lackey was stunned speechless, but fortunately, Sun Bin answered, “The bet is with me, and I’ll post it on the school forum and let the students of Harvey bear witness.”

Seeing that there would be witnesses, Qiao Yue nodded in agreement. She didn’t care if anyone tempered with the post on the school forum. Since it would be there, everyone would see it. Even if someone tempered with it, people would see that too.

Seeing that Qiao Yue hadn’t returned to the classroom after a long time, Xu Hao pushed Qiao Yu out of the classroom.

“Xiao Yue?” Qiao Yu called out from the classroom door.

Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Yu and smiled. “Fourth brother.”

Sun Bin wanted to leave with his two lackeys as soon as he saw Qiao Yu, but Qiao Yue stopped them.

“It just so happens that my fourth brother can also be a witness,” Qiao Yue said.

Xu Hao pushed Qiao Yu next to Qiao Yue. Qiao Yu sized up the three people across from him and narrowed his eyes.

He knew this person. He had paid attention Qiao Yue’s adventures in her previous class. This kid appeared rather frequently in Qiao Yue’s adventures.

“Witness for what?” Qiao Yu asked.

Qiao Yue chuckled. “This person wants to bet with me using our year-end results. Whoever with the worse final ranking will drop out of Harvey.”

Qiao Yu frowned slightly. He knew that since Qiao Yue said this, he must have agreed to the bet. However, given Qiao Yue’s results, it would be difficult to guarantee his win.

“And you want to bet with him?” Qiao Yu asked even when he knew the answer.

“He’s come all the way to our class, so naturally I must agree to the bet.” Qiao Yue gave Qiao Yu a reassuring look.

Qiao Yu’s gaze fell on the boys across from him. Since Qiao Yue had spoken, he had to give him face. Worst case, he would tutor Qiao Yue in the coming days. He would help Qiao Yue so he wouldn’t lose.

“Alright! I’ll be the witness then. Since the loser has to drop out of the school, both sides have to abide by it.” Qiao Yu asked Sun Bin for his confirmation.

Sun Bin looked at Qiao Yu and nodded. The bet was now in place.

Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Sun Bin left with his lackeys.

When Qiao Yue, Qiao Yu and Xu Hao went back into the classroom, the school bell rang. Xu Hao’s curiosity had to be suppressed again. He could only wait for school to be over at noon to ask the Qiao brothers what was going on.
