Chapter 30 Chen Muyu's Background
The air was filled with the fresh scent of grass. The sunlight filtered through the treetops, creating mottled shadows that sprinkled on Chen Dengtai's slowly approaching car, adding a touch of vivid color to this quiet morning.

The car stopped steadily at the school gate, Chen Muyu got out of the car with her schoolbag on her back, and walked into the classroom along the path under the shade of the trees. In the classroom, the window was half open, and the breeze blew gently with a hint of coolness, taking away the morning heat.

Chen Muyu walked to her seat and put down her schoolbag. Xu Xiangchen's seat was still empty. After a while, the classmates arrived one after another. When Leng Chuchu just walked into the classroom, she came over.

She asked with concern: "Mu Yu, does your face still hurt?"

Chen Muyu smiled and shook her head, indicating that everything was fine. At this time, Xu Xiangchen and Xiao Ling also came. Xu Xiangchen was holding a bag in his hand and handed it to her after sitting down.

The breakfast in the bag was still steaming, and the other two people saw this and tactfully left the space for them.

Xu Xiangchen sat quietly beside her. There seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two of them. They could feel each other's presence without words.

His eyes stayed on Chen Muyu, watching her eat breakfast bite by bite, feeling that life is worth living. Thinking of something, Xu Xiangchen took out the freshly printed admission ticket from his schoolbag, which still exuded a faint scent of ink.

"The exam is at ten o'clock, and your exam room is in N302, Building B..." Xu Xiangchen's voice was low and clear, and every word was filled with caution.

The sunlight sprinkled on Chen Muyu's face, and she smiled gently. Seeing this, Xu Xiangchen couldn't help but ask aggrievedly: "What are you laughing at?"

Chen Muyu raised her head and said playfully, "I just didn't expect that one day you would start to give me instructions." There was a hint of joking in her voice, but it was also full of cherishment for this concern.

Xu Xiangchen was slightly stunned, then he revealed a helpless and doting smile.

At nine o'clock, the school broadcast a notice to the students who were going to take the physics competition selection test to go to the examination room. Chen Muyu and Leng Chuchu were walking and they ran into Wang Xilu who was moving luggage on the road.

Wang Xilu saw them, stopped, and walked over with a sneer on his face.

Leng Chuchu immediately went on alert, "Wang Xilu, you've been fired and you're still not content?"

Wang Xilu seemed a little reluctant, but still said: "Chen Muyu, it's my fault for hitting you, I'm sorry... But do you really think Xu Xiangchen likes you? He is a heartless person, and his father would not agree for you to be together."

Chen Muyu looked at Wang Xilu with contempt, and she said firmly: "Really? That's just right. Some people also say that I have no heart. As for Xu Xiangchen's parents, it's not my fault. If he can't handle these things well, then he really doesn't deserve me."

Wang Xilu was choked by Chen Muyu's words. She didn't expect Chen Muyu to be such a self-centered person. This was something she could never do in her life. Looking at Chen Muyu's receding back, she couldn't help but feel a complex emotion in her heart and shed a tear.

The exam started on time at ten o'clock. The exam time was strictly limited to two hours, but the number of questions was twice as much as usual.

Such a challenge is undoubtedly a huge pressure for most people, but for Xu Xiangchen and Xiao Ling, it seems to be a piece of cake.

Xu Xiangchen sat by the window, his fingers moving quickly on the test paper, as if everything was under his control. Xiao Ling sat in another corner of the classroom, with a confident smile on his face. This test was just a simple practice for him.

The long-awaited exam arrived, and Chen Muyu was so happy that she didn't feel the difficulty of the questions at all. However, in sharp contrast to them was Leng Chuchu, who frowned and almost crushed the pen in her hand.

When they finished the exam and returned to the classroom, the classmates looked at Chen Muyu with a different look. Chen Muyu didn't know and didn't care, but Xu Xiangchen was different. When Xu Xiangchen heard that Chen Hengzhe was also chatting with his deskmate about the discussion on the forum, he couldn't help but feel curious and worried. He was worried that these discussions about Chen Muyu's life experience would bring unnecessary trouble and pressure to Chen Muyu.

"Chen Hengzhe, what are you talking about?" Xu Xiangchen poked Chen Hengzhe who was sitting in front and asked in a low voice.

Chen Hengzhe hesitated for a moment, but after seeing Xu Xiangchen's serious expression, he backed down: "Someone on the forum said that Chen Muyu might be the illegitimate daughter of a high-ranking official, and even posted some so-called evidence."

Xu Xiangchen frowned. Although he didn't know the identity of Chen Muyu's father, he was sure that she was not an illegitimate daughter.

Chen Muyu, who was standing by, felt even less concerned after hearing this and smiled faintly.

Chen Hengzhe felt embarrassed and said to Chen Muyu, "I'm sorry, classmate Muyu, we didn't mean to have this discussion." Then he showed the forum to Chen Muyu.

Chen Muyu looked at the so-called "evidence" on the forum and made guesses. To be honest, she also felt that the poster was quite talented.

Poster: [According to my speculation, Chen Muyu may really be the illegitimate daughter of a high-ranking official. I will state my speculation below: First, there is no information about her parents in the campus archives; second, Wang Xilu's parents are also well-known figures in Mingtan, but even donating money to the school couldn't prevent her from being expelled. Family members, please pay attention, what is more powerful than wealth? It's power! ]

[The third and most important point is that some students saw two men in suits and leather shoes going to see the dean that day. They looked very impressive and the dean was very respectful.]

Chen Muyu returned the phone to Chen Hengzhe, "It's okay, after all, gossip is human nature."

After being forgiven, Chen Hengzhe quickly turned back. Xu Xiangchen was still very worried and asked Chen Muyu, "Will it really not affect you?"

"No, I think this is actually quite good, because this way no one will dare to cause trouble to me anymore."

Xu Xiangchen didn't know whether to praise Chen Muyu for being too optimistic, but there was some truth to it.

The results of the competition selection exam came out very quickly. When the students arrived at school the next day, they saw the rankings and scores posted on the honor roll.

Not surprisingly, the top three were divided among Chen Muyu, Xu Xiangchen and Xiao Ling.

Classmate A: "Oh my god, is Chen Muyu so amazing? I remember that her score in physics was only above average in the last test, but she actually got full marks this time."

Classmate B: "Please let me call her a genius student, but Xu Xiangchen and Xiao Ling were deducted a point this time. What happened?"

Classmate C: "I guess it's because Chen Muyu is careful, beautiful, good at studying, and outshines those boys. I don't care, she is my goddess from now on."

Classmate Ding: "Please let the goddess be alone!"

……

Chen Muyu, who was silently watching the list at the back, really wanted to thank them for praising herself to the sky in less than three minutes.
