Chapter 119 Two Servants

Under Catherine’s intimidating presence, everyone attended another peaceful class. After the class

ended, Catherine woke up. The previous days of recording variety shows had disrupted her sleep

schedule, and she couldn’t stick to her habits.

As she woke up, Ronin immediately took a box of pastries and a thermos from his backpack and

handed them to her. His actions were skilled and natural, indicating that it was a habit he had

developed over a long time. “Boss, have some.”

Catherine had a tendency for low blood sugar since she was young. Perhaps because she was too

smart and talented, she was given some flaws to make her appear more perfect.

Moreover, Catherine preferred salty and spicy food and didn’t like sweets. She often felt dizzy due to

low blood sugar. Ronin had been by her side for many years and was accustomed to caring for her.

With the familiar voice and aroma, Catherine naturally reached out and took a pastry, stuffing it into her

mouth. Seeing her eat it, Ronin was pleased. He opened the thermos and handed it to her, saying,

“Boss, have some rose liqueur!”

Catherine took it and took a sip. Indeed, the rose liqueur made by Ronin was the most authentic, even

better than the imported one she had drunk at David’s house last time.

The other students in Class 8 were dumbfounded. Wasn’t this how kings were served in ancient times?

It wasn’t enough to have Bryan as a servant. Now there was Ronin, who was a servant and a top

student. They began to wonder about Catherine’s identity. Why was everyone around her trying to

please her?

Bryan had an unhappy expression on his face. However, his unhappiness was not directed at

Catherine but at Ronin by her side. He didn’t know that Catherine was interested in pastries and liked

drinking rose liqueur. “What kind of person is Ronin?” he thought. ” He’s such a bold guy.”

Bryan had always been pampered and sheltered by his family, never experiencing the darkness of

society. He found it hard to hide his straightforwardness, especially around Catherine. “Boss, did you

know Ronin before?”

As soon as this remark was made, almost all the students in Class 8 perked up their ears, eagerly

waiting for the gossip.

Ronin had a hopeful look in his eyes. This time, he acted without seeking permission first and didn’t

know if Catherine would be angry. Catherine had no intention of hiding the truth. Seeing Bryan’s

interest, she nodded lightly and replied, “Yeah.”

Perhaps it was because Bryan’s expression was too innocent, it reminded Catherine of Audrey. She

explained, “We knew each other in the countryside.”

Bryan was satisfied with Catherine’s explanation. It turned out they knew each other in the countryside.

No wonder they were so close.

Ronin was happy as well. If Catherine was willing to say that, it meant she wasn’t blaming him.

Overjoyed, he even forgot about the unpleasantness between him and Bryan. He started bragging. “I

used to be with Boss in the countryside. Boss took good care of me, understand?”

Bryan didn’t want to understand it at all. The thought of Ronin knowing Catherine earlier than him made

him feel uneasy.

Now, everyone knew Ronin’s background. They initially thought he was from a prestigious family, a top

student, but it turned out he was just a country boy who got in based on his grades.

It wasn’t surprising to have a few high- achieving students who were used as examples by schools to

compete for rankings. Those who had wanted to flatter Ronin suddenly lost interest. People’s attention

diminished, and they focused less on Ronin.

Suddenly, George came back from the teacher’s office holding a stack of forms. He went straight to the

podium, facing the whole class. “Give me a minute, guys. I’ve got something to tell you!”

George had a good reputation in Class 8. He was a typical nice guy who was helpful to everyone.

Although he lacked authority, everyone was willing to show him some respect. Everyone looked up at

George.

George pushed his black-framed glasses up his nose and smiled pleasingly. “The annual school

celebration is here. This year is the 10th anniversary of our school’s founding, and the school plans to

hold a grand event. Each class must perform several talent shows, so please participate actively and

help our class achieve a good ranking.”

At this point, George paused and sighed, saying, “I don’t want other students to misunderstand our

class. We are not just good at academics. We must also excel in such activities.”

Everyone knew what George meant. It was well-known that the students in Class 8 were arrogant

because they had good grades. All the top students were in Class 8. But as young people, no one was

willing to back down. So what if Class 8 had good grades? They were all bookworms, lacking in arts

and sports!

Whenever there was a school competition, Class 8 would be humiliated by students from other classes.

The whole Class 8 had endured such humiliation for a long time.

Someone couldn’t stand it anymore and shouted, “George, who said there are no talented students in

Class 8? We have Liana, a talented pianist who could potentially become world- famous!”

“That’s right!” someone echoed. Liana sat in her seat with a faint smile, not making any statement. She

exuded an aura of an artistic genius.

She had been learning the piano since she was young and was known as a prodigy. Her dream was to

become the chief pianist of the best vocal ensemble in Vienna in the future. At that time, she would

bring honor not only to the Swann family but also to her country.

She thought that Catherine, a country girl, could never compare to her. Also, Liana thought Catherine

was a rude and unreasonable girl who relied on her rural upbringing to threaten people with her fists.

“Hmph!” Liana scoffed inwardly. ” What’s so great about her? She’s just a low-class person.” George

nodded and said to Liana,” Liana, I’ll register you first. Can you perform a piano solo?”

Liana gracefully nodded and softly said, “Okay, every Class 8 student must strive for honor without

tarnishing the class’s reputation.”

That statement made Liana sound like a leader. However, it was despicable for one to boost oneself

while belittling others.

The words “tarnishing the class’s reputation” referred to the plagiarism incident involving Catherine,

which made Class 8 infamous throughout the grade. This was indeed a case of boosting oneself by

tearing others down.

Although Liana kept belittling Catherine, Catherine didn’t react at all. Her scheme seemed to have no

effect on Catherine. Catherine didn’t pay any attention to her, not even a glance.

Although Liana had agreed to perform a piano solo, it wasn’t enough. After all, the school required at

least five talent shows to be showcased.

Not to mention achieving a good ranking, if they couldn’t even come up with five talent shows, the

whole Class 8 would be humiliated again.

George’s earnest persuasion was in vain, so he had to turn to Bryan for help. It was well known that

Bryan had a lot of influence in the class. It would be much more effective if he spoke up than George

doing it himself.

However, Bryan never liked getting involved in these things. He flatly refused. Later, something

happened after school, which solved George’s problem.
