Chapter 57 -57: The Ordinary Girl Brought Down by Vanity (Part 7)
Teacher Qi was meticulous in her work. She gently made a call to Su Sheng, stating that because the school valued Su Li highly, there was a good chance she could be among the students aiming for the top universities. Therefore, to avoid wasting time, they suggested she board at school to facilitate her learning.
Initially, Su Sheng absolutely disagreed. He was skeptical of the teacher’s claims—when had Su Li’s grades ever been that good? Why didn’t he know about it?
However, after Teacher Qi’s repeated clarifications, he half-heartedly accepted the reality that Su Li had always been a top student.
This didn’t match what Su Mo would typically say at home….
Finally, Teacher Qi’s eloquent persuasion reluctantly won Su Sheng over to accept the request.
It was better for Su Li to board anyway, lest she annoyed Su Mo at home and disrupted the family atmosphere.
Su Sheng casually mentioned this news when he got home, and apart from the initial cursing from Ma Li and Su Mo, it sank like a pebble into a lake, leaving no ripples behind.
Ma Li and Su Mo shared Su Sheng’s sentiments at that moment; they didn’t want to see the annoying Su Li at all now.
Without Su Li as an eyesore, Su Mo felt the air itself was cleaner in front of her.
Even the embarrassment and anger she felt from being publicly questioned during the evening study session relaxed substantially.
But the Su family’s sense of relief lasted only one evening, vanishing completely by the next day.
The following morning, the finely prepared breakfast that was usually ready upon waking was gone, leaving only an empty and cold dining table waiting for them.
Ma Li scrambled about and finally managed to serve up two decent breakfasts, but the taste left something to be desired….
With both her husband and daughter showing no good faces after being hungry all morning and not having a delicious meal, the few of them spoiled by Su Li simply couldn’t feign a good mood.
Su Sheng and Su Mo were still manageable; the most direct inconvenience wasn’t that apparent.
Other than the intolerable meals, there were no particularly strong feelings—at least for the time being.
But Ma Li was struggling…
Apart from preparing three meals a day for the Su father and daughter, she had to rush to the market after work to buy groceries and then come home to mop floors, do laundry, and handle all kinds of housework…
After an entire day, she was exhausted, her back aching and without a moment’s rest.
Ever since Su Li had become sensible, Ma Li hadn’t done any of these chores.
It used to be Su Li who silently took care of everything, and household chores never worried her.
Soon, both Su Sheng and Su Mo slowly began to realize the inconvenience of Su Li’s absence.
When Su Sheng’s white shirt was once again scorched with a small hole by his wife, he couldn’t hold back any longer and exclaimed, “Fine, I’ll do it myself….”
“If you keep on, I won’t have a single shirt left to wear.”
Startled by Su Sheng’s outburst, Ma Li felt wronged, wondering why her husband wasn’t as considerate as before, even starting to yell at her.
Anger flaring up, Ma Li quit the task at hand, throwing down the clothes and complaining both angrily and sadly, “I’m ironing your clothes for you. If you’re not grateful, that’s one thing, but to yell at me….”
“You can’t even iron a shirt properly, the house is a mess, and the food you make each day is like dog’s dinner… What can you actually do right?”
Accustomed to coming home to delicious meals and a clean, tidy house, where everything was in order, Su Sheng, faced with such chaotic household affairs, found it impossible to suppress his frustration and confusion, which surged right to his forehead.
And Ma Li, being the immediate target, became the outlet for Su Sheng’s venting.
Which other man’s wife was like her, unable to keep a house in order—it was simply disgraceful.
“I, I….”
“You’re one to talk. Since you think I can’t do anything right, you might as well handle all these matters yourself from now on…”
Ma Li wasn’t the type to suffer a loss, and she immediately threw up her hands and gave up the task.
Hidden in her room, Su Mo covered her ears, but even that couldn’t block out the sound of her parents’ increasingly loud arguing seeping through the crack of the door.
She was in a very vexed state herself.
All her classmates now knew that Su Li was her younger sister, and each day brought a relentless stream of snide remarks.
Especially Yao Lin, who became even more relentless…
And that calamity, Su Li, didn’t even think about helping her out but joined in with Yao Lin instead.
The once warm and harmonious home no longer existed.
She didn’t understand why her parents, who used to be so in love, now quarreled incessantly over the most trivial matters.
Indeed, Su Li was a jinx, a disaster… All her fault…
Without the self-sacrificing nanny Su Li, the Su Family’s home had become chaotic, but Su Li, having left the Su Family, was living a more carefree life than she ever had.
Apart from spending on everyday items, she still had over 200 yuan left of the 300 yuan, which Su Li had put entirely into her meal card.
Life as a high school student was simple and monotonous. It was study, and then more study.
The high school textbooks were a breeze for Su Li; after all, she was someone who had delved into even the most profound academic research. However, revisiting these basics gave her new insights.
This piqued Su Li’s interest. Apart from sleeping and going to the restroom, she spent all her time reviewing basic knowledge points.
Su Li’s diligence greatly pleased her homeroom teacher, Teacher Qi, and also gave her classmates in Class (1) a sense of urgency.
It even sparked a wave of enthusiasm for learning among them.
However, among this group of students tirelessly seeking efficient ways to learn, there were still some who stood out for being different.
And Su Mo was one of them.
She found it intolerable to watch Su Li strut around in front of her, especially since she was getting better and better…
Su Li, who had always been invisible in the class, was now attracting more and more classmates to her side, causing great dissatisfaction for Su Mo.
It wasn’t supposed to be like this…
Su Li was supposed to be like a rat in the sewer, ignored by everyone. How come now…
Su Mo was angry, but she couldn’t do anything.
Everyone had been gossiping about the Su Family’s turmoil, and now that it had finally calmed down, she did not want to stir up their discussion again.
Therefore, no matter how much Su Mo hated Su Li, she still didn’t have the guts to bully her openly.
The high school students, unpolished by society, were still exceptionally naive; they only cared about who had good grades, who could easily earn their admiration and respect.
The original Su Li always had good grades, but in the top-tier Class (1), she didn’t particularly stand out.

But after the change to the new Su Li, within a month she topped several mock exams with an absolute advantage, scoring perfect marks in every subject…
While Su Mo, on the other hand, saw her ranking fall further and further behind, and in the last exam, she ended up at the very bottom of the class.
Although the other students didn’t react, Su Mo felt as if everyone was laughing at her.
