Rebirth: My Mother is a Virgin Mary

Chapter 187: Being on guard against others is essential

At this rate, Shuyu and I might not be able to have dinner by five o'clock, so without hesitation, we decided to go to another restaurant.

The spicy hot pot hadn't arrived yet. Shu Yu looked at his phone for a while and said to me, "You're going to start submitting application forms tomorrow. Are you ready?"

My hands paused as I was unpacking the disposable tableware. I have been busy with my little house recently, so how could I forget such an important thing!

"If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten it!"

"What! You didn't stamp it or anything!" Shu Yu was "horrified".

"No...it's something else." I put the hot dishes in front of Shu Yu, "something that must be prepared in advance."

"What?" Shu Yu asked.

The hot pot has arrived and we are eating and chatting at the same time.

"After Xia Rui went to Youqi to complain, I kept thinking that she would definitely not give up and must have other bad intentions. I felt something was wrong at the time, but I couldn't tell exactly what was wrong. When you mentioned the scholarship application form, I felt like everything was suddenly clear." I picked up a piece of flower sausage. Yes, it tasted just like this. When Shu Yu and I went out to eat together, we only had one flavor, spicy!

"Are you worried that Xia Rui will do something with the application form?" Shu Yu frowned. "Not really. There are so many checks and balances. What can she do?"

"I heard from Tian Meng before that there have been cases of application forms being stolen. Don't underestimate the evil of human nature." Tian Meng is my fellow villager who works in the scholarship and loan department. When I met her after graduation in my previous life, she also told me that every year there are cases where there are fewer application forms. When I asked the parties involved, they all confirmed that they had submitted them. There must be too many tricks involved. She said to me, "Cheng Lin, anything related to money and honor is bound to be full of intrigue, and college students are all malicious."

"There is actually... such a thing..." Obviously, Shu Yu did not expect it, but she quickly calmed down, "I understand your thoughts, I believe if it is Xia Rui, she will definitely do it! No, although it is still speculation now, I have to think carefully about how to avoid it..."

I put a piece of beef roll into her bowl with chopsticks: "You should think about it, but don't delay eating."

"No matter how careful you are, you can't guard against a bad guy. What if, I mean what if, she decides to steal your or my application form, and we take precautions and stop her in time. Then what? If this 'trick' doesn't work, will she come up with something else?" Shu Yu took a few mouthfuls of rice and fell into deep thought again.

It's so comfortable to talk to a smart person. I don't need to guide her at all. We are brain-splitting! She is worthy of being my bestie!

"How long does it take from application to review and decision on a scholarship?" I asked even though I knew the answer.

"The list will be finalized before November 1st." Shu Yu still frowned, thinking about what Xia Rui would do.

"Don't let my bringing up this topic affect your mood for dinner. I'd be committing a great sin!" I reached out and pinched her face.

"What impact will it have? I will just do two more jobs! If you don't tell me now, when will you tell me? I don't care. I must keep your scholarship, even if I don't have one myself!" Shu Yu said.

"Don't say that! We have to get both, and you are not allowed to sacrifice yourself at any time! Besides, with our grades, as long as no one does anything weird, we will definitely get the scholarship!"

Shu Yu slammed her fist on the table, showing me her trembling heart... "This year, if she wants to be the class committee member again, it's not up to her! I know she likes Yang Liang very much, and Yang Liang will also flatter her. With Yang Liang's sophomore grades, no matter how many ordinary points he has, it will be useless. Especially if she wants to give him a place, I don't mind reporting her to the school!"

"Report..." When I heard her say this word, I suddenly laughed.

"What's wrong?" Shu Yu asked.

"What you said reminds me. Do you think Xia Rui will suddenly report me?" I chewed slowly. "It's obvious that she's targeting me now. Just like you said just now, what if her plan fails?"

"You mean..."

"The department's academic affairs office has an anonymous reporting system, right? Students can report teachers, and they can also report students. Didn't you say before that after the incident between Wang Feiyang and Meng Tian, ​​someone anonymously reported Wang Feiyang for hooking up with other girls?"

Shu Yu nodded: "Yes, that happened, but what can Xia Rui report you for? You are upright and honest, what can she report?"

"Who says that what she reported must be true? It's not like she hasn't done defamation before." I pointed at the table. "Especially before she asked us to come to the office, didn't we expect that she would be the first to file a complaint?"

"That's right...if she reports you having an affair with another teacher at the critical moment of scholarship evaluation, your scholarship will definitely be lost!" Shu Yu sighed, "Damn it! How can she be so mean!"

"Hey, I'm just guessing. She hasn't done it yet. And even if she wanted to, she would only report me for cheating or something. How bold is she to slander a teacher?"

"You cheated? Don't say I don't believe it. No one else in our class would believe it either! Even the king of heaven wouldn't believe it! In every exam, you sat in the first row and were the first to hand in your paper. Your performance is obvious to everyone."

I sneered: "What's the use of your not believing it? As long as Xia Rui dares to report it, my application process will be tainted. If the teacher in the Academic Affairs Office finds out there are doubts, my scholarship will be gone anyway!" I remembered the teacher in my previous life who said that I deserved to be reported and didn't deserve the scholarship. He looked so righteous. I still remember this little grudge.

"Hmph, some of the teachers in the Academic Affairs Office are not serious people..." Shu Yu pondered for a while and asked the waiter to serve her a bowl of rice. It really didn't affect her appetite.

"Like this!" Shu Yu shouted loudly and slammed the table, which scared me. The waiters all looked in our direction. Fortunately, there were no other diners at the moment.

"You also said that this is all our speculation. Compared to Xia Rui reporting you, I think she is more capable of stealing your application form! Taking inspiration from the last time you filmed her stealing money, let's do a 'fishing enforcement' this time!"

Shu Yu perked up: "Yang Liang should post an announcement about the application form in the group in the evening. Every year, the application forms for girls are handed in to me. Xia Rui can't go back to the dormitory now. If she really wants to steal the application form, she can only wait until I hand it in to the counselor. In previous years, it took three days, and I only handed it in on the last day. This year, I deliberately handed it in one day earlier to see if Xia Rui would take the opportunity to do something in the remaining day. In the end, the class committee still has to review it. If yours is missing, everything is self-evident... If yours is really missing, I would not be named Shu if I don't make a big deal about it. I want to see if she can avoid surveillance! If that's the case, I will expose her in front of everyone!"
