The boy suddenly slammed the book in his hand down onto the desk and, full of righteous indignation, shouted, “If I’m a shill for Jean, may I get hit by a car the moment I walk out that door!”

That one line was earth–shattering, enough to shake the heavens and make ghosts weep. The entire crowd was dumbfounded.

Even Jean froze for a second.

This guy was intense. He went straight for a venomous oath. Truly ruthless and dramatic.

For a moment, the entire auditorium seemed to fall silent. All the whispers accusing the boy of being a plant disappeared completely. What replaced them was only a heavy, speechless silence.

“Alright, thank you, please take your seat,” the teacher hurriedly said into the microphone, trying to smooth things over. “Jean has already answered the first question. Next, let’s draw our second student to ask.”

Once again, all eyes turned back to Jean.

She remained composed and calmly called out a number.

This time, the question came from a slim girl with a high ponytail. Instead of math, she asked a history- related question.

Even so, it posed no challenge for Jean. She answered fluently, with hardly a pause to think.

This time, there were barely any murmurs of doubt.

After all, this girl had made bold claims on the school forum before the event began. She claimed that she would stump Jean with a history question and definitely trip her up.

Clearly, this girl could not be a plant. There was no way she was colluding with Jean.

And yet Jean did not falter. Not only did she answer, she answered brilliantly.

Looking back, everyone began to notice something. The way Jean responded was not directly from the textbook. Each answer came with her own insight and clever reasoning.

These were not the kinds of answers you could produce by rote memorization.noveldrama

Slowly, a realization began to dawn on the crowd.

Jean…. might actually be the real deal.

The session continued…

Some asked about literature, others about chemistry, some about classical poetry…

Jean tackled them all one by one, giving clear, impressive answers. She responded to every question with thoughtfulness and calm.

And when the final round ended, the hall fell silent once more.

The expressions of the students below were complex and varied.

Some looked ashamed, some awkward. Some remained unconvinced. Some… were quietly impressed.

Suddenly, Jean raised the microphone.

Her gaze swept the auditorium. It was sharp, steady, and unwavering.

“The session may be over,” she said, her voice calm, “but there’s something else I want to say to everyone.”

She drew a deep breath and continued. “Actually, there’s one question I really want to ask all of you. Why is it… that everyone always holds the harshest prejudice against me?”

The crowd stiffened. Their faces grew even more unreadable.

They had not expected Jean to ask this. Shock flickered across many faces.

Her eyes shimmered with quiet light. Her expression was both vulnerable and solemn. “Is it… because of my background?”

After all, her true background had not yet been fully revealed.

Most students still believed she was just an illegitimate child…

But ever since she entered this world, a lot has happened. And she had been doing her best to turn the tide of public opinion.

Never mind everything that came before. Just look at the recent events. She had been wrongfully accused time and time again, yet cleared her name each time through her own efforts. But instead of feeling remorse or offering an apology, those people simply lay in wait, ready to throw mud on her the moment the next chance arose…

“Before this, you all accused me of stealing and leaking the level exam questions,” she said, her voice rising unconsciously with the swell of emotion. “But when it was proven that I didn’t, none of you apologized. And when I was doing everything I could to help Asher, you turned around and slandered me again, spewing cruelty and lies.”
