My Inner Thoughts Are Heard by the Entire Noble Academy

Dong Wenhao had only met Shi Li once, but her striking appearance was unforgettable, so he certainly remembered her.

Moreover, with Rongrong following behind Shi Li, it was easy to recognize who she was.

The girl beside Dong Wenhao wasn't his classmate, though they were in the same grade. Despite being in different classes, she had heard about all the good deeds Dong Wenhao had done.

Even top students are ordinary people, and like everyone else, they enjoy watching drama unfold.

She was no exception. When she was selected for the winter camp, she had hoped to meet the classmate whom Dong Wenhao had once helped.

Truth be told, she was intensely curious about Shi Li.

That girl was truly something else - there weren't many people who could hold a grudge like her, and her method of revenge was particularly effective.

Dong Wenhao's female classmate waited with amused eyes to watch the drama unfold. As soon as Shi Li introduced herself, she immediately knew this was the classmate she had been so curious about.

She stepped forward and grabbed both of Shi Li's hands, "So it's you! I've heard so much about you. Now that I've met you, I can see your reputation is well-deserved!"

Shi Li was completely bewildered by her enthusiasm, unaware that she had become so famous without knowing it.

Faced with such an enthusiastic girl, Shi Li could only repeatedly express her thanks in response.

However, Shi Li's real purpose in seeking out Dong Wenhao wasn't to charm anyone - it was to deliberately irritate him.

She was incredibly grudge-holding and could remember such trivial matters for a lifetime, always looking for opportunities to annoy him.

"Oh my, Classmate Dong, how nice to see you again! I've felt guilty about not thanking you in person for what happened last time. You must have seen the thank-you letter I sent to your school, and I specially selected a banner of appreciation - I hope you liked it."

Shi Li's expression was animated while Dong Wenhao was seething with anger.

Ignoring his expression, Shi Li continued, "Now that I have the chance to meet you, I can finally thank you in person. This is really such a wonderful place."

Dong Wenhao was barely maintaining his composure, but Shi Li carried on as if she hadn't noticed, "By the way, when your school's leaders and teachers saw the thank-you letter and banner I sent, they must have praised you in front of the whole school, right? Did they give you an award for your act of bravery?"

Shi Li's mention of this nearly drove Dong Wenhao over the edge.

Praise from the school and teachers?

Not only had he not received any praise, but his homeroom teacher had called him to the office for a heart-to-heart talk. The main point was that as a young man, he should focus on his studies rather than on grades. Although he was first in his class, he couldn't expect to be first forever, and he needed to understand that there would always be someone better out there, and so on and so forth.

Though the teacher had been tactful, for Dong Wenhao, who was used to receiving praise, this conversation felt like a profound humiliation.

Now that Shi Li had brought up this shameful memory, Dong Wenhao's expression finally cracked completely. However, before he could fully break down, Shi Li had already ducked behind Rongrong and Fu Huixing.

Shi Li's movement appeared natural, as if she had simply returned to her companions after expressing her gratitude.

Dong Wenhao's anger was cut short - before he could fully express his fury, Shi Li had already run away, leaving him to seethe at her retreating figure.

Dong Wenhao's classmate put on an exaggerated expression of sadness, though observers could see no real sorrow in it, finding it rather comical instead.

Shi Li sweetly said to Fu Huixing and Rongrong, "Let's head back."

They naturally followed her lead, and the three returned to their original positions.

Thanks to this deliberate provocation on the first day, Dong Wenhao developed a grudge against the three of them and kept trying to cause trouble in subtle ways.

However, the three of them completely outmatched him in ability, and while they supported each other, Dong Wenhao, despite having companions, was essentially isolated.

Interestingly, the female classmate who was with Dong Wenhao added Shi Li's contact information, and her first message was full of flattery, expressing her desire to become close friends with the beautiful older sister.

Their friendship flourished rapidly through their online interactions.

Being from the same school as Dong Wenhao and spending time with him regularly, she would secretly warn Shi Li whenever she noticed him plotting something.

Shi Li couldn't help but wonder how two students from the same school could be so different.

Indeed, girls truly are the most wonderful.

Thanks to having this little "mole," none of Dong Wenhao's schemes ever worked.

Well, they weren't entirely useless - at least they added some entertainment to their otherwise monotonous training period.

Having such a little pet running around causing trouble was quite amusing.

Dong Wenhao probably could never figure out why all his plans were exposed before he could even implement them.

The month-long training quickly came to an end, though the results of the winter camp wouldn't be announced for some time.

After the training camp, the three of them flew home together again.

Having gotten along well with Xiang Sinuo during this time, and grateful for her constant updates, Shi Li invited her to travel back together.

However, Xiang Sinuo had her own thoughts and declined Shi Li's offer, saying it would make it too obvious to Dong Wenhao that she was the mole.

Unable to persuade her, Shi Li let Xiang Sinuo return with Dong Wenhao.

After landing, they had people waiting to pick them up. Shi Li had the driver take Rongrong home first before heading home herself.

Having been away for a month, her whole family had missed her dearly.

Since Shi's Grandmother was at the Old Mansion, she went there first, and Huang Jie and Shi's father would come for a family dinner in the evening.

Shi's Grandmother and Eldest Aunt were both at home.

The first thing Shi's Grandmother said upon seeing her granddaughter was that she had lost weight.

She hadn't actually lost any weight, but since the food at the training camp had been mediocre, when she saw the freshly cut fruit platter on the tea table, she pounced on it like a hungry tiger.

With her mouth full of fruit, Shi Li remembered it was winter break and Shi Ruan must be on vacation, so she casually asked, "Where's my sister? Upstairs?"

She was very interested in Shi Ruan's whereabouts these days.

Eldest Aunt pulled out two tissues and handed them to Shi Li, telling her to eat slowly and not stain her clothes.

"Your sister isn't home, she's out on a date with her boyfriend."

Shi Li nearly choked on her fruit juice, "Cough cough - boyfriend? Since when does she have a boyfriend?"

Eldest Aunt was very pleased with her daughter's boyfriend and smiled, "You've actually met him before."

Shi Li suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Remember that boy from when you accompanied Ruan to the blind date? After they got to know each other, they felt they were compatible and decided to continue developing their relationship. Your sister has been secretly dating him, without telling the family. It was your brother who discovered it."

Shi Li: ......

Eldest Aunt thought she must be hearing things in her old age - otherwise, how could she have heard her usually sweet and lovely niece give such a cold laugh?

Impossible, it must have been her imagination.
