Chapter 1375: The Blackened Good Girl (10)

The food in the cafeteria could never compare to the dishes served in the little restaurants outside.

Those girls who were used to eating out every day were already dissatisfied.

They had begun to suspect that Wu Lingling's family background wasn't nearly as good as she had claimed. Perhaps, just as Tang Guo had said, she was merely keeping up appearances.

Tang Guo clearly took in the expressions at the table opposite hers.

If Wu Lingling hadn't been spending her family's money, would she really have made all those so-called loyal friends?

Of course not.

In the end, Wu Lingling had simply been using her family's money to make friends with all sorts of questionable people.

Now that the money was gone, the number of people willing to play with her would gradually decrease.

Tang Guo ate slowly and elegantly.

Even the way she ate was pleasing to the eye.

In contrast, Wu Lingling sat carelessly and lacked any sense of poise, appearing rough and crude.

The difference between them was striking.

Wu Lingling was an extremely sensitive person. She immediately sensed people comparing her and Tang Guo. Hastily stuffing a few mouthfuls into her mouth, she left in a hurry.

Staying there made her very uncomfortable.

A smile tugged at Tang Guo's lips.

She simply wanted to make Wu Lingling uncomfortable.

Better yet, make her uncomfortable to death.

All of Wu Lingling's bravado was merely a cover for her inferiority complex.

It was precisely because of that inferiority that, after the original host had suffered and fallen apart, after her grades dropped and her temper worsened, Wu Lingling slowly improved. She studied harder, became prettier and more presentable, and only then found the courage to stand before the original host.

The truth was that she had always felt inferior in front of the outstanding honor student that was the original host.

The first thing Tang Guo intended to do was stand above Wu Lingling forever.

She didn't even need to do anything.

As long as she surpassed Wu Lingling in every aspect, the latter would eventually break down and never improve.

Her eyes darkened.

To wound someone, first destroy their heart.

To strike at an enemy, first destroy their courage.

Once Wu Lingling lost the courage to become better and realized that she could never compare to Tang Guo, she would naturally sink into decline.

Without Tang Guo as her stepping stone, how could she grow?

Lu Jing?

Tang Guo slowly chewed a piece of cabbage.

What if Lu Jing was no longer valued by the Lu family as he had been originally?

Could he still lead Wu Lingling onto a better path?

It was because Wu Lingling had fallen in love with Lu Jing and believed herself unworthy of him that she gradually awakened and changed herself.

If she liked being a delinquent, then she could remain one for the rest of her life.

“The vegetables are pretty good today.”

The classmate sitting beside Tang Guo heard her comment.

Looking at Tang Guo's spotless tray and then at the vegetables she herself had pushed aside, she suddenly found them rather appetizing.

After Tang Guo left, she took several bites and nodded repeatedly.

“Top Student Tang is right. The vegetables really are delicious today.”

System: Even this works?

Tang Guo's life was simple.

Every day consisted of going to school, returning home, eating, and sleeping.

Just like that, a week had passed since she arrived in this world.

There was only one week left before that phone call came.

During this period, Wu Lingling and Lu Jing were growing increasingly close.

Mother Tang had come back once during this time, but she no longer secretly stuffed money into Wu Lingling's hands or sent her red envelopes.

Because she had personally come to the school to see Wu Lingling.

Tang Guo knew about it and accompanied her.

Watching Wu Lingling reject Mother Tang's attempt to give her money, Tang Guo was extremely satisfied.

“So Lingling has really become sensible?” Mother Tang asked in disbelief after Wu Lingling had left.

Tang Guo stood obediently beside her and said, “Now you can stop worrying, Mom.”

“Yes.” Mother Tang nodded with relief. “Since Lingling has become sensible, your aunt won't have to work so hard anymore.”
