Anime Crossover: My Girlfriend Has a System

He felt that Ling-Long's words were the perfect description of Kato Megumi. (60)

"Ye Zi, I'm so nervous! The results will be announced at noon today."

Although she said that, Kato Megumi's face showed no sign of nervousness, a stark contrast to the others.

You will do well on the exam.

"Thanks for your kind words, and I also hope you, Yezi, can get first place in your exam!"

After saying that, Kato Megumi smiled. She wasn't mocking her; she just found it amusing, though she wasn't quite sure what made it so interesting.

"I will be number one."

Ye Ziye remained as confident as ever, which made Kato Megumi's smile deepen. She squinted her big eyes and nodded repeatedly.

Ye Ziye didn't quite understand why Kato Megumi reacted this way, but it didn't matter; it would be fine after noon.

The morning classes passed in a state of excitement among all the students. During this time, some students went to the office to check their rankings, but without exception, they were all refused.

The teachers at Shuchiin Academy are highly qualified in this regard; they will not reveal students' grades until the official announcement date.

During class, many teachers would glance at Ye Ziye intentionally or unintentionally. He knew why, after all, he was the new number one.

Chapter 156

At noon, all the students left the classroom as soon as they finished eating.

They were there to see the results, and the list was usually posted on the notice board on the first floor. Ye Ziye, who already knew the results, didn't plan to go, but Kato Megumi dragged her over anyway.

The girl was looking forward to her results and also wanted to confirm whether she had been right to trust Ye Ziye's intuition.

The notice board on the first floor was crowded with people, and Ye Ziye spotted two familiar faces among them: Kaguya Shinomiya and Yukino Yukinoshita.

The two girls hadn't squeezed in yet; they were circling around the outer circle, glancing at each other every now and then, hoping to see if they would be the winner this time.

Seeing this, Ye Ziye shook his head. He was sure to be number one, and the two girls' wishes were going to be dashed.

The results were posted in three places, and the six classes were divided into three groups to prevent overcrowding. Unfortunately, Fujiwara Chika wasn't here; Ye Ziye wanted to see the girl's expression.

Ye Ziye didn't intend to squeeze in. She waited quietly outside, knowing that the people inside would come out after they finished looking. Pushing and shoving would only make things seem foolish.

While waiting, he also heard many interesting sounds: some people cheered, some wailed, and some sighed silently.

"What should I do, Yezi? I think I'm starting to get nervous..."

Standing next to Ye Ziye, Kato Megumi patted her chest, panting heavily. Although she was confident in herself, she was still nervous when the results were announced.

"It's ok."

Ye Ziye spoke softly, his innate quiet demeanor reassuring. Kato Megumi also relaxed from her tension, tugged at his sleeve, and nodded silently.

Time passed slowly, and after a persistent wait, Ye Ziye finally arrived at the list with Kato Megumi. To his surprise, Yukino Yukinoshita and Kaguya Shinomiya had just entered as well.

Although he wasn't particularly perceptive, he still keenly sensed that the two girls were secretly competing with each other.

Yukino Yukinoshita's expression remained aloof and unapproachable, while Kaguya Shinomiya, who had changed a lot, wore a professional smile.

However, the two also had something in common: they both had one hand in their pockets, seemingly groping for something.

After glancing at them briefly, Ye Ziye looked away. He didn't have time to care about the love-hate relationship between the two girls; checking his own grades was the most important thing.

The names on the list were neatly arranged, with scores listed after each name. Ye Ziye didn't look down; instead, she looked straight up.

As he expected, his name was at the top of the list, followed by his score.

795 points, that's his score. He was five points short of a perfect score, probably because of the deduction in the essay. This was different from what Ye Ziye had expected. He didn't expect to lose 5 points; he thought it would only be 2.

He now seriously suspects that the essay reviewer is Hiratsuka Shizuka, because the themes he writes about still convey a sense of loneliness, and that woman doesn't appreciate those themes.

The so-called large number of single women, Hiratsuka Shizuka prefers positive and optimistic women, which can help her temporarily escape the shadow of being single.

It doesn't matter anymore. Even if he lost five points on the essay, he got full marks on everything else, so first place is rightfully his.

After reviewing his own results, Ye Ziye looked down, eager to see who would be second place.

However, two names appeared in the second row. In this exam, Kaguya Shinomiya and Yukino Yukinoshita achieved the same score, which is rare.

In the past, this would definitely have been a tie for first place, but unfortunately this time it can only be second.

"Ye Zi, look!"

Before Ye Ziye could finish his exclamation, he felt his sleeve being tugged, and the only person who would do that was Kato Megumi.

At this moment, the girl's face no longer showed any worry, but instead was full of surprise.

There are about two hundred students in the first year of high school at Shuchiin Academy, and Kato Megumi ranked fifty-fourth this time. She ranked eighty-ninth in the entrance exam, which is a great improvement. At least she doesn't have to worry about having her allowance deducted.

"congratulations."

"Thank you. Yezi, how did your exam go?"

Faced with Kato Megumi's question, Ye Ziye didn't speak, but pointed upwards with her finger, and the girl's gaze followed her upwards.

But contrary to Ye Ziye's expectations, Kato Megumi was not very surprised; her reaction was even more indifferent than when she learned about her own grades.

Kato Megumi, as if she had already anticipated the outcome, smiled and said...

"Ye Zi, you really didn't lie to me."

This sentence was a bit strange, and Ye Ziye was slightly stunned, but he quickly came back to his senses.

"I never lie."

"I believe you!"

Kato Megumi's smile remained unchanged, but her words were slightly different. Looking at the girl who was standing very close to him, Ye Ziye suddenly felt that his Dao heart was somewhat unstable and stopped watching.

For some reason, he found Kato Megumi's smiling eyes exceptionally beautiful.

Taking a deep breath, Ye Ziye calmed himself down and prepared to leave this place of trouble. He estimated that Hiratsuka Shizuka would summon him soon.

But before he could take his first step, his other sleeve was grabbed. When he turned around, he saw Kaguya Shinomiya smiling.

The girl had a professional smile on her face. In the past, Ye Ziye might have been worried about being exiled to the frontier by now, but he wasn't worried now.

He could understand Kaguya Shinomiya's feelings at this moment. She was probably unwilling to accept it. Although she hadn't fallen out of the top two, the number one was not someone she considered a worthy opponent.

"Congratulations, Yezi! You got first place. You must have worked really hard, right?"

Looking at the girl in front of him, Ye Ziye wanted to deny it, to say that he hadn't studied at all, and hadn't even listened in class, but in the end he silently nodded, acknowledging what Shinomiya Kaguya had said.

It wasn't out of fear or anything, but rather because I was worried that saying that would be a huge blow to Kaguya Shinomiya.

He felt a pang of regret. He had sworn to Kato Megumi that he never lied, but he hadn't expected to lie so soon.

Chapter 157

"Although I didn't expect this result, I still want to congratulate the new first-place winner! I'm so happy that you, as a member of the student council, came in first place!"

Kaguya Shinomiya smiled and turned away after saying those words.

She was lying just now, of course. She wasn't happy at all. On the contrary, she was extremely unwilling. If no one was around, she would have cried so hard that she would have bled, and then rolled around on the ground without caring about her image.

The reason she turned her head away was because she was trying her best to endure it.

For Kaguya Shinomiya, failure is not a disgrace; sometimes failure is a way of dealing with people.

However, it's different when it comes to academics. From childhood to adulthood, she has always been number one in everything except academics, where Yukino Yukinoshita competes with her for the top spot.

Even a genius like her wasn't 100% confident of defeating Yukino Yukinoshita.

This was an unacceptable humiliation for someone with a strong sense of self-respect like her. So, in her first exam of her first year of high school, she became unusually serious, with the goal of defeating Yukino Yukinoshita and securing the top spot in high school.

Unexpectedly, Yukino Yukinoshita was also prepared and scored the same as her.

Normally, tying for first place wouldn't be a big deal, but this time they were tied for second place, with Ye Ziye suddenly appearing out of nowhere.

Kaguya Shinomiya never expected that she would lose to Yoko Yoko, who usually had no motivation at all, in terms of studying. She had never regarded Yoko Yoko as a rival.

But how could she accept defeat by someone who usually lacks motivation, especially one who had prepared diligently?

Moreover, she had another feeling that Ye Ziye hadn't studied at all and had lost to someone who was completely unprepared, which made the proud Shinomiya Kaguya even more unwilling to accept defeat.

Ye Ziye silently watched Shinomiya Kaguya, whose shoulders had been trembling inexplicably since earlier, and even he could feel her deep resentment.

Kaguya Shinomiya's acting skills still need improvement, and he, with his acting abilities, is quite qualified to speak on this matter.

After saying those two sentences, Kaguya Shinomiya didn't give Ye Ziye a chance to speak. She shrugged and quickly left. She was going to find her maid to vent her emotions; she was just too unwilling to accept it!

Ye Ziye stood there and sighed silently. He figured things were about to get complicated, as he had now become Kaguya Shinomiya's new enemy in their studies.

However, there is still a certain difference between genius and cheat code.

Watching Kaguya Shinomiya's departing figure, Ye Ziye scratched his head. To be honest, he hadn't expected this girl to have this side to her.

However, it's interesting to occasionally witness a different side of someone. Perhaps the Kaguya Shinomiya we just saw was the real her, a sixteen-year-old girl.

Even after Kaguya Shinomiya left, Yoko Yoru still couldn't leave because Yukino Yukinoshita came over again.

The two girls seemed to have planned it beforehand, their movements seamless.

"I didn't expect you weren't lying to me this morning."

"I never lie."

Looking at Yukino Yukinoshita, Ye Ziye repeated what he had already said, but this time he felt a little guilty. He decided that he would never lie again.

"I believed in you, but I never expected you to actually get first place..."

Looking at the name at the top of the list, Yukino Yukinoshita seemed to feel a bit like she was in a dream.

To be honest, she never thought that anyone other than Kaguya Shinomiya could surpass him, but if that person was Ye Ziye, it seemed quite reasonable.

After all, in her mind, one of Ye Ziye's strengths was his intelligence.

Although she was somewhat unwilling to be surpassed by Yoko, Yukino Yukinoshita gladly accepted the fact. She had a lot of inner monologues just now, no less than Kaguya Shinomiya, but she is now at peace with it.

She had never considered Ye Ziye as a rival; her only rival was Shinomiya Kaguya. And this time, her rival had not surpassed her, so the exam was not considered a failure.

"Ye Zi, don't forget to rehearse with me."

With a slight sigh, Yukino Yukinoshita put the matter of grades out of her mind. As the president of the Service Club, receiving commissions was the most important thing...

"Ok, I know."

After responding, Ye Ziye took the rehearsal to heart. Since he had promised Yukino Yukinoshita, he would take it seriously.

However, he was still quite surprised by Yukino Yukinoshita's reaction. He had originally thought that this girl would be like Kaguya Shinomiya, feeling resentful at first, and then leaving.
