Chapter 273 Replaced
“I’ll show one of the solutions, but would you like to ask another person to demonstrate the second one?”
The physics lecturer was momentarily stunned before asking Cherise with a smile, “Why don’t you show us, Cherise?”
Cherise glanced at the question as she stood up. “I’m sorry, sir. I haven’t been around for two weeks, so I’m not sure about the other solution,” she announced with a smile, honestly admitting her ignorance. There was no trace of shame even though she was once the student amba*sador, and she was now showing her weakness to the newly appointed student amba*sador.
Mandy gritted her teeth upon seeing her demeanor.
“Is that an excuse for not studying?” the physics lecturer demanded. “Mandy has only been here for a week, yet she has been able to pick up the materials over the past six months. What about you?”
Everyone started whispering among themselves.
“Cherise has changed to be so shameless.”
“True. She acts as if she’s not supposed to know this simply because of a two-week absence. But look at Mandy!”
“Mandy is better than her.”
The physics lecturer glanced at Cherise in disappointment before smiling at Mandy. “I guess it’s up to you to show us both solutions, then.”
Mandy nodded in reply and wrote the answers on the board diligently.
Meanwhile, Lucy’s fists were balled up in anger. “That b*tch!” She did this on purpose to humiliate Cherise, knowing that she was the lecturer’s favorite!
“Go back to your seat.”
The lecturer looked at Mandy’s answer in approval and fixed a sharp glance at Cherise. “I can’t believe it! Can you please learn from Mandy?”
Cherise nodded solemnly with a smile. “Of course. I’ll take Mandy as my example,” she replied earnestly, with no trace of anger or jealousy in her eyes.
Touched by her, the physics lecturer softened his tone. “I know that health is important, but you mustn’t neglect your studies. Let’s work hard together.”
“Yes, sir.” She gave another nod and sat down while Mandy clenched her fingers around the chalk she was holding.

What is going on? If I recall correctly. Cherise has been competitive since she was young. She has always been getting full marks and taking the top spot in the cla*s. These accolades should be important to her, but
When the lecture ended, Lucy asked with a frown. “You really don’t mind all of that, for real?”
As the day went on, everyone seemed to be subtly reminding Cherise that Mandy had replaced her position, she had lost her previous glamor and glory
Instead of feeling upset and jealous, she seemed as if a weight had been taken off her shoulders, leaving Lucy bewildered.
Cherise grinned light-heartedly as she packed her bags. “I loved being on the top and winning prizes, not because I wanted to win or to be better than others, but because I want to give my best in everything I do. That’s how I take responsibility for myself. She looked at the throngs of people surrounding Mandy. “To be honest, I don’t really care what others think of me.”
With that, she got up. “Now that I’m free from all the people seeking help from me, we can hanit out right after the lecture ends! Summer vacation starts in a month-have you already made plans for a part-time job?”
