The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Slapping the Fake Rich Girl 27

Zhao Mingzhu waited for a long time, but she never heard the news of Song Ruyi scolding Anning.

She felt even more aggrieved.

Whenever she did something wrong, Song Ruyi would scold her and demand even stricter requirements.

Why is it that when it comes to Anning, Song Ruyi lets her do whatever she wants?

After feeling aggrieved, Zhao Mingzhu was both jealous and uneasy.

She must stay with the Zhao Family no matter what.

She wouldn’t live a poverty-stricken life in that insignificant county.

Since the Zhao Family had raised her for fifteen years, they must keep supporting her and not think of getting rid of her.

Zhao Mingzhu, not sure why, began to contact the Liu Family.

As soon as she contacted the Liu Family, Anning knew about it.

Knowing that Zhao Mingzhu asked the Liu Family to do something, Anning couldn’t help but sneer.

In Zhao Anning’s previous life, Zhao Anning was timid and unassertive, compounded by the unease of just arriving in the Capital, and Zhao Mingzhu’s exploitation of their classmates to bully her, which forced Zhao Anning to give way voluntarily.

Zhao Mingzhu took the initiative, could attack and defend as necessary, naturally never hurried or showed any flaws, which led the Zhao Family to think highly of Zhao Mingzhu later on, thus giving Zhao Mingzhu the chance to deliver a fatal blow to the Zhao Family.

But this time, Anning had driven her out as soon as she arrived, and as Anning’s relationship with the Zhao Family grew increasingly stronger, Zhao Mingzhu became restless.

Whatever Zhao Mingzhu wanted to do, Anning let her do.

After all, at this time, the more she did, the more mistakes she made.

If the Liu Family dared to come to the Capital, the Zhao Family would take care of them without needing Anning to act.

Anning didn’t take this matter to heart much.

She began to focus on helping Xiao Yuan catch up with his studies.

After studying in the library for two days, Anning found that Xiao Yuan was actually quite smart; it was just that he had previously misled himself and refused to study diligently. He always answered questions haphazardly during exams, which was why he consistently ranked last.

Anning specifically made a study plan for Xiao Yuan, asking him to follow the schedule.

Now Xiao Yuan studied with Anning every day. Sitting with her, he could calm down and absorb the material, and his learning efficiency was quite high and his grades were steadily improving.

Anning found some practice questions for Xiao Yuan, and after several times, Xiao Yuan’s scores continuously improved.

Anning collected all the practice questions Xiao Yuan did and bound them very carefully.

Besides Xiao Yuan, Anning also encouraged the other students in class to study together.

Although they weren’t studying as diligently as Xiao Yuan, they could still absorb the material.

Anning felt that these kids were actually not stupid; they had just given up on themselves due to their individual reasons. Once they regained their confidence, their grades improved very quickly.

Soon, the mid-term exam arrived.

The day before the mid-term exam, Song Ruyi and Zhao Han came home early, and even Zhao Mingrui returned from school, saying he wanted to review with Anning.

As the siblings studied in the study room, Anning finished her homework early and even brushed through some extra questions, and later picked up a foreign language book to read.

Meanwhile, Zhao Mingrui was restless and scratching his head.

Anning glanced at Zhao Mingrui: ”Brother, what’s wrong?”

Zhao Mingrui pointed at the test paper in front of him: ”There are several questions I can’t figure out. Our class Great Demon is becoming inhuman, setting such difficult questions.”

Anning went over, looked at the questions, noting one math question and two physics questions, indeed all quite difficult, exceeding the high school level and touching on some college content.

”Indeed quite challenging.”

Anning nodded.

Zhao Mingrui looked up at her, ”You understand this?”

Anning leaned over, pointed to a problem and explained it to Zhao Mingrui in detail, trying to use simple language to make it understandable.

Zhao Mingrui quickly got it, then after he finished this problem, Anning explained two more to him.

When Zhao Mingzhu finished her homework and came out of the study, she still felt dizzy.

He didn’t return to his room but took his test paper to Zhao Han’s study.

”Dad.”

As soon as he entered, Zhao Mingrui called out loudly, ”Have you ever tested my sister’s IQ? How high is her IQ? Are you sure she’s your biological daughter?”

Zhao Han was so irritated by Zhao Mingrui’s words that he saw stars: ”Are you asking for a beating? If your sister isn’t my daughter, then who is she? You think DNA tests are fake?”

”No, no.”

Zhao Mingrui quickly waved his hands: ”It’s just that I found out my sister is too smart. I mean, we’re both your children, so why am I so stupid? Dad, do you know my sister has already finished high school knowledge in junior high? She’s reading college books. My goodness, she even read a foreign book today, I glanced at it and had no idea what language it was.”

While speaking, Zhao Mingrui pulled up a chair to sit down, ”Dad, you and mom are so unfair, why didn’t you make me a bit smarter...”

Zhao Han felt a headache coming: ”How is that ours to blame? Obviously, it’s because you were restless in your mom’s belly. Your sister was well-behaved, of course she’s a bit smarter.”

This obvious bias made Zhao Mingrui clutch his chest: ”Dad, that’s not fair. Can we still have a happy father-son relationship?”

Zhao Han chuckled: ”Alright, spit it out if you’ve got something to say.”

Zhao Mingrui actually didn’t have much to say; he just discovered Anning was excessively smart and came to share this news with Zhao Han.

Zhao Han actually knew already; as soon as Song Ruyi realized Anning was smart, she told Zhao Han. He didn’t mention it, but deep down he was somewhat proud.

He thought, indeed worthy of my genes, just as smart as me.

But now looking at the foolish Zhao Mingrui, Zhao Han felt like vomiting blood. Why do the same genes produce different results?

”Heaven burdens the great ones with heavy tasks...”

Zhao Han recited a long passage, Zhao Mingrui, dazzled, said: ”Dad, stop showing off your literacy, are you just trying to say that my sister had suffered a lot in the past, and I should treat her better in the future, and not to be jealous because she is smart? Who do you think I am? I’m not so petty. She’s my sister, my own sister. I can only be happy that she’s smart, why would I be jealous? If I were mean to her, what kind of person would that make me?”

Zhao Han couldn’t help feeling pleased inside.

Though Zhao Mingrui wasn’t great at studying and appeared a bit foolish, he was somewhat carefree, or as the saying goes, open-hearted and big-hearted, tolerant of others.

That’s also good.

With Anning being extremely intelligent, the Zhao Family’s future won’t be bad, Zhao Mingrui’s ability to embrace Anning, that’s the way to enduring stability.

Anning slept very well that night.

The next day, she woke up early only to find it had started snowing.

It snowed pretty early this year in the Capital, and the weather turned much colder, so Anning put on an extra thick coat when she left.

Song Ruyi didn’t go out today. While Anning was having breakfast, Song Ruyi checked her backpack to see if she had all her stationery, making sure she didn’t leave anything behind and cheered her on.

She hugged Anning with a smile, ”Do your best on the exam, just try your hardest. It’s all trivial about the scores, go for it.”

Song Ruyi even imitated the TV, placing both hands above her head to make a heart shape for Anning.

She was a bit playful and cute, which made Anning laugh as well.

The longer Anning stayed with the Zhao Family, the more she liked the people there.

Zhao Han and Song Ruyi were a loving couple who trusted each other deeply; both had good characters and were sensible.

Zhao Mingrui wasn’t a terrible brother but instead, he was very open-hearted, very accommodating.

Thinking of the Zhao Family’s tragic end in her previous life, Anning felt particularly indignant for them.

She also understood why Zhao Anning, despite facing the dispersion of her soul, still asked her to help change their fate, to save the lives of the Zhao Family and protect their family property.
