Chapter 119: Chapter 119

Principal Reed is completely henpecked, saving up a stash of pocket money isn’t easy, so putting all his savings up for this bet clearly shows he’s all in.

"Hahaha, Reed, you’re really going all out, aren’t you afraid you’ll lose all those years of hard-earned savings?" Principal Langley laughed, "I fear that when you do lose, you’ll have to find a corner to quietly shed tears!"

"This year, it’s your turn to hide in a corner and cry!" Principal Reed pulled out a card and theatrically slapped it on the table, "All my savings are here, and I’m all in!"

Kidding, with Serena in the competition this year, Imperia University is guaranteed to win!

Principal Langley of Clearwater University wasn’t going to be outdone, he pulled out a card and slapped it on the table too, "Alright, I’ll bet with you, Clearwater University will win for sure!"

Serena Everett, completely unaware of their wager, exchanged a few words with Nancy Sutton, and then followed the team leader backstage.

Yara Shawnessy and three other contestants deliberately sat far away from Serena, clearly leading the charge to isolate her.

Serena was just happy to have some peace, took out her phone, and lazily started playing games.

"The contest is about to start, I’m so nervous! I heard this time that the prodigy from Clearwater University’s medical department—Aidan Keaton—is also competing!"

The moment these words were spoken, the others immediately started wailing. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novel-fire.ɴet

"What? Aidan Keaton is competing this year too? We’re definitely going to lose then!"

"Yeah, yeah, Aidan is so amazing, and our team even has a deadweight, how can we win?"

"Don’t be like that, everyone!" Yara was also extremely uneasy, but feigned encouragement, "The competition hasn’t started yet, we must have confidence in ourselves. Aidan is indeed impressive, but we’re not bad either!"

"Yara’s right, all of you should learn from her!"

The team leader gave an approving look to Yara, while growing more displeased with Serena.

The competition is about to start, and she still has the nerve to be playing games, what a total deadweight!

Who knows why the principal insisted on thrusting her into this year’s medical contest against Clearwater, someone from the countryside, how could she possibly understand medicine?

"Serena." The team leader, dissatisfied with her, naturally spoke unkindly, "I’m not asking you to answer any questions, just behave yourself when you’re on stage, and don’t mess things up for them!"

Serena lifted her beautiful, slightly upturned fox-like eyes, looking at her indifferently with an air of arrogance.

"That’s something you should tell them instead."

The team leader didn’t expect Serena to talk back, feeling embarrassed, her face turned dark out of anger, her words turning harsh and unpleasant, "Serena, know your place. If you hadn’t pulled some strings to get Principal Reed to add your name to the contestant list, you wouldn’t be qualified to participate in this medical contest! You better behave yourself on stage..."

"You’re being too noisy."

Serena couldn’t be bothered to listen to her nonsense, her voice coldly interrupted her.

"Whether I’m qualified to compete in this medical contest is not for you to decide."

"As your teacher, I am qualified!" The team leader became even more irate, "Who do you think you are? I’m not qualified to speak up? If Imperia University loses today, it’s all because of you, the deadweight!"

"What if I win later?"

"You? Win?" The team leader seemed to have heard a joke, bursting into laughter filled with sarcasm, "What a joke, Serena, how dare you talk so big, it’s laughable!"

The others chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, everyone knows she’s just a bumpkin from the countryside, and she has the audacity to brag like that, what a joke!"

Serena’s delicate porcelain face remained expressionless, her tone was calm as well.

"So much nonsense, what if I win?"

The team leader was infuriated by her arrogance, "If you win, I’ll kneel down and call you ’grandpa’ three times! If you drag Imperia University to a loss, then just get out of the medical department yourself!"

Serena nodded languidly, "Alright, you better be ready to kneel."

Upon hearing this, the team leader was almost angry enough to have her nose out of joint, but then let out a cold, heavy laugh.

A girl from the countryside dares to be so arrogant, let’s see how she embarrasses herself once on stage!

Yara joined in the schadenfreude laughter, Serena, that fool, dared to gamble so big, soon she’d be kicked out of the medical department!

The contestants from Clearwater University’s medical department took the stage first, immediately causing a stir below.

"Wow! The one standing in the center is Clearwater University’s heartthrob—Aidan Keaton, right? He’s so handsome, as expected of Clearwater’s heartthrob!"

"Yeah, yeah, so very handsome!"

"Not only is he a campus heartthrob, but he’s also the most outstanding student in Clearwater’s medical department, a medical genius!"

Serena casually looked up, he’s indeed not bad-looking, but compared to a certain charmer, he’s still a notch lower.

As for whether he deserves the title of medical genius, we’ll see soon enough.

If his medical talent is as rumored... Serena blinked lightly, her extremely beautiful fox-like eyes flashing with cunning.

Aidan noticed someone looking at him, he looked over and saw Serena’s exquisite, porcelain-white face, a glint of amazement flashed in his eyes.

Aidan is not only Clearwater’s heartthrob but also a medical genius, what girl wouldn’t like such a figure?

Yara was no exception, but unfortunately, Aidan was of a cool temperament and coupled with the fact that he was from Clearwater, she never found a chance to approach him, originally planning to get close after the medical competition ended today, but unexpectedly Serena the witch had gotten to him first!

Standing beside Serena, Yara saw clearly Aidan’s admiration for Serena and couldn’t help but bite her lip in jealousy.

That witch Serena has no shame, already cozying up to Damian Quinn, and now trying to cozy up to Aidan Keaton!!!

Such a shameless charmer!

Yara threw several vicious glances at Serena, Serena couldn’t care less, leisurely walked to her spot, sat down languidly with a relaxed, laid-back demeanor.

She seemed not at all like she was there for the competition, but rather like she was on vacation.

Seeing her so lax and unserious, Aidan’s earlier amazement gradually faded, withdrawing his gaze with some disappointment.

In his view, medicine was sacred, yet her attitude was so flippant, truly unworthy of studying medicine!
