Ye Ci made a gesture and handed her phone over.
"Sister Ning Li, Mom wants to talk to you."
Ning Li did not take over the phone and only swept a glance at Ye Ci as she asked in a light voice, "Are you telling her about what Mr. Li told you today in the office?"
Ye Ci froze at once.
Ning Li was talking about Li Guangyuan asking Ye Ci to discuss with her family about withdrawing from the competition.
How could she bring it up to Su Yuan?
Su Yuan obviously heard Ning Li's words and asked, "The office? Mr. Li? Lil Ci, what is it about?"
"Give me the phone," Ning Li said as she reached out to take Ye Ci's phone.
Ye Ci's hand quickly shrank back.
"No, no... Sister Ning Li, you only just came back, so you'd better go wash up first. Otherwise, it'll be too late later."
The corner of Ning Li's lips hooked up lightly as she brushed past Ye Ci.
After Ye Ci had made sure that Ning Li was in the room, Ye Ci put the phone to her ear.
"Lil Ci?" Su Yuan vaguely felt that something was off and asked her again.
Only then did Ye Ci say, "Mom, it's nothing, Sister Ning Li seems to be quite tired, so I didn't want to bother her with this matter."
"Then, what did she mean by what she said? Did your teacher look for you?"
"Yeah... It was just about my gastroenteritis yesterday. I got an IV and took some medication, so I'm feeling much better now."
As soon as Ye Ci mentioned this, Su Yuan's attention was instantly diverted.
"Is it serious?"
"It's fine, Mom... Don't worry..."
Ye Ci continued to reassure Su Yuan a while longer before Su Yuan finally felt relieved.
She hung up the phone and pursed her lips when she recalled Ning Li's attitude just now.
Originally, Ye Ci had wanted to take this opportunity to make Ning Li give her the other notebook, but she had not expected Ning Li to actually turn the tables on her and threaten her with this matter instead.
Looking at it, it looked like Ning Li would never give her the notebook.
Today, Ye Ci and Zhang Yanyan had gone neck to neck, and everyone now knew about her score from the last exam.
They were not even halfway through the winter camp yet, so it would be tough for her to continue here.
Ye Ci stood there for a while before she turned around and went back to the room.
...
Room 202.
Song Mengtang was still doing some practice questions at her desk.
Cao Jingxuan saw Ye Ci enter the room and pointed to her desk.
"Ye Ci, I put the flask on your desk. There's porridge inside and it should still be hot. Do have some."
Only then did Ye Ci's expression ease up. She smiled gratefully at Cao Jingxuan. "Thanks, Jingxuan."
Now that everyone knew that Ye Ci had done badly in both exams, Cao Jingxuan was one of the few people who still treated her nicely.
