Transmigrating Into A Villain novel Chapter 45

Rose looked at Leo and then averted her eyes to Alina, back to her seat, her eyes sparking with gossip.

With one hand in the pocket and a cool face, Leo handed the bag to Alina and said, "My aunt asked me to give it to you. She said that she wanted to thank you for taking care of Harrison."

Alina took the bag and said, "You're welcome."

After he was done, Leo turned around and left.

Looking at Leo's back, Rose said to Alina unwillingly, "He...he just left?"

"Or what?" asked Alina with a smile.

Rose was slightly disappointed. She grabbed Alina's hand and asked, "Tell me the truth. What happened between you two? Why did he give you something?"

Alina replied indifferently, "First, nothing happened. Second, he didn't give it to me. Someone asked him to give it to me. You can ask Leo if you don't believe me."

"Ah... Nothing happened?" Rose expressed her suspicion.

"No. Why would I lie to you? All I want now is to study hard. I'm in no mood to think about all that mess."

It sounded convincing. After all, Alina's performance had been advancing a lot.

"Well, I believe you! How have you been studying lately and why have your grades suddenly improved so much? Have you got a tutor at home?"

"No. I just listen to the teacher carefully in class. When I have time, I read books and do exercises, so my grades improved."

"That's all?"

"That's all."

Rose said, "Well, I will follow your advice and study hard from now on. I also want to listen to the teacher carefully, read more books and do more exercises, to improve my performance!"

Alina gave her a thumbs up sign and said, "Come on!"

After English came Chinese. When the Chinese teacher called the name of Alina, he specially reported her score, one hundred and three points.

She ranked the second in her class again.

Wow... This time, they chorused.

When Rose looked at Alina's score, she was envious and resentful.

In the next two classes, Alina's scores still shocked everyone.

Someone had added up her scores. She scored first in the class.

Then, everyone's attitude toward Alina changed. She used to be a haughty nobody in the class, but now she was the star of the class.

At lunch time, several girls came over and went to the canteen with her. They scrambled to sit at the same table with her. The students in the front row talked to her and asked her how she studied.

Rose was sitting at another table. She felt angry that she had no chance to talk to Alina. She complained to Emma, "Look at them. When they see that Alaina did well in the exam, they butter up to her."

Emma glanced at the smiling Alina over there. Then she lowered her head and said, "Well, we are not in the same world with Alaina. She is in her circle now."

Upon hearing this, Rose said unhappily, "Emma, what are you talking about! We are not in the same world? Alaina did a good job because she was studying hard. We should be happy for her."

Looking into the clear eyes of her desk mate, Emma felt ashamed of her being narrow-minded. A bright smile gradually appeared at the corners of her mouth. "You are right. We should be happy for Alaina!"

"I think that she might be the first in our class. Do you think so?" Rose smiled and asked.

"There is at least 80% possibility."

Rose burst into laughter. "That's highly possible. Let's just wait for her to treat us. I have to make her go broke!"

When they went back, Alina didn't go with those girls. Instead, she waited for Rose and Emma to go together.

On the way, Rose deliberately said to Alina, "Curve wrecker, you are very popular now!"

Alina had not heard others call her a curve wrecker for a long time. She was in a trance for a moment. She soon recovered herself and smiled, "I'm not a curve wrecker with so few grades. Don't call me that until I get over 90 in every subject."

"Over 90? Students in elite classes may not get 90 points in all subjects. Don't you think you have boasted too much?" Rose said with her eyes wide open.

"Did I? I don't think so. We are all human beings. There's no reason they can score so high but I can't. What do you think?"

"Well... You're right!" Rose nodded.

Emma looked up at the sky and said, "Our head teacher often tells us that, doesn't he?"

"You're fooling me!" said Rose. As she spoke, she reached out to grab Alina.

"I'm not fooling you. This is spiritual chicken soup," Alina laughed and said.

Clenching her teeth, Rose yelled, "Go to hell!"

They were playing with each other. The sun shone on the girls through the gaps between tree branches, and their laughter drifted in the wind.

Back in the classroom, when Alina had just sat down to open the book, she suddenly thought of Sheffield. 'How is he now?

How about... Let me send him a message.'

At the thought of this, Alina took out her phone and sent a message.

"How is your day at school? Alaina."

After a while without a reply, Alina shrugged. Well, it seemed that Sheffield was not going to text her back.

Alina forgot it and went on with her book.

Then she took a nap at her desk, preparing for her study in the afternoon.

All of a sudden, the bell rang. Alina was woken up. She tried hard to open her eyes. It took a while for her to be fully awake.

It was Monday, so it was singing time.

Alina could sing a few songs already.

When she was singing, she took out her phone and was about to set it in mute mode. As soon as she unlocked it, she saw an unread message on the screen.

She looked at the number. It was from Sheffield.

Alina read the message 'I'm fine'.

'Why are you being so reticent?' She thought for a while and sent another message. "Did they make trouble for you? I will pick you up after school."

After that, Alina set her phone to mute mode. When she was about to put it in her pocket, her phone lit up.

She looked at it and it was a message from Sheffield. "No. No need."

Alina put away her phone and thought, 'Whatever you like. Do you think I like running around?'

More exam papers were handed out in the afternoon. When everyone got the paper, they were most concerned about the scores.

Alina's score was the most concerned. Someone would secretly inquire about her score.

There were seven major courses on Monday, so the exam papers were all distributed.

Some of them secretly added up Alina's scores and found that her total score was extremely high. A student in class 126 was unlikely to get that high score.

But Alina felt that the score was much worse than before.

Although her scores caused a sensation in class 126, she still ranked low in the grade.

Carrying a bag of cash, Alina went home. Wendy asked as soon as she saw her, "How was your exam? Have you passed any exam?"

Alina was speechless. "I say... Don't look down upon me, okay?"

"All right, all right. I know about your grades. It's good enough that you can pass three among nine courses."

"Mom, you really look down on your daughter this time. I tell you I have passed more than three. Do you believe it?"

Looking at her confident daughter, Wendy folded her arms before her chest and asked, "So how many courses did you pass? Five?"

"Guess!" replied Alina with a smile.

"Guess what? If you can't pass five exams, I'll give you a wish. Any wish is okay!"

"Mom, let's make a deal. A wish!"

"Deal!"

Alina opened her schoolbag, took out the seven exam papers that she got today and handed them all to Wendy. "Look, the scores are all up there."

Wendy took the exam papers. The top one was English.

Looking at the score on the English test paper, Wendy was shocked. She touched the red number on the paper and then stared at Alina and asked, "Did you really get the score? Did you change it?"

"Mom, you can call our head teacher to check it. He is our English teacher."

"I'll call him later. Let me look at other papers..." Wendy looked at the other papers as she spoke.

Chinese, math and physics...

She looked through them one by one, and became more and more excited. "You, you really got the scores by yourself? Didn't you copy from others?"

"You know our class. Who can I copy from?"

Wendy raised her eyebrows and her eyes were filled with tears. "Alaina, if you got the scores all by yourself, you are a real genius!"

"Mom, calm down. It's true. I used to study every day until twelve o 'clock in the evening. I think my efforts are paid off!"

"Okay, okay, I believe you! When your father comes back, tell him the good news. He must be very happy when he knows it!"

As they were talking, Sheffield walked in from outside.

Wendy was in a good mood and said, "Sheffield, you are back! You came just at the right time. Your sister has made a great progress in her exam this time. You must learn from her and try to improve your performance as well!"

Sheffield took a look at them. When he caught Alina's eyes, he looked away quickly. "I go upstairs."

"Brat! How dare he run away while I was talking to him! He is really ill-bred!"

"Mom!" Alina quickly interrupted Wendy, "Dad is coming back. I don't want him to hear this."

"Well, don't ever try to frighten me. I know what you are thinking."

"No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Mom, I will go upstairs to change my clothes and come downstairs later."

"Go ahead, I'll ask the cook to cook two more dishes."
