My Evil Wife Is a Nine-Tailed Fox

Xu Shenshen felt that Shen Minyao must have cheated to get such a high score. 

Shen Minyao used to be in the middle ranks during their previous examinations. For her to suddenly jump to the top, how could Xu Shenshen believe that she had lost? She refused to believe Shen Minyao's previous claim that she was the one who broke the previous record. 

"Weren't you in the same class?" Shen Qing frowned, realizing that she had once again lost to her cousin, Shen Minyao. 

Xu Shenshen fell silent. Because she was busy taking their exam, she failed to keep an eye on Shen Minyao. Also, it was unlikely that the teacher and the proctors wouldn't notice if Shen Minyao was cheating. 

"I didn't pay attention to her. Of course, I need to focus on my own exam." She grumbled. 

Shen Qing shouldn't fault her for this, right? Shen Qing should know Shen Minyao better as her cousin, so how come she wasn't aware that Shen Minyao was the smart one between them? Would this mean that Shen Minyao wasn't lying about her previous claims?

"That must be it." Xu Shenshen scoffed. "She must have cheated for her to score that high." 

Shen Qing smiled slightly, but her eyes grew sharp. She was seething in anger, but her pride wouldn't allow her to ruin her gentle and docile reputation in front of everyone. However, she was already cursing Shen Minyao repeatedly in her heart. 

"It would be hard for us to prove that she cheated," she told Xu Shenshen. She also couldn't believe that the cousin she thought was useless and idiotic would be able to ace the exams this time.

"If there isn't any evidence of her cheating, why don't we make one? Her cheating doesn't have to be true. We just need to make it look like it," Shen Qing replied. 

According to her cohorts who followed Shen Minyao during school days, Shen Minyao had been spending more time with Li Fei'er and Lu Anqi, and they never saw Shen Minyao study and review for their lessons at the library. 

However, what they didn't know was that the fox woman was aware that she was being tailed by those people. She purposely pretended to be slacking off on her studies to not make Shen Qing suspicious of her. 

"Then, what are we going to do?" Xu Shenshen frowned. She didn't want Shen Minyao to torture her again. She was starting to think that it was a bad idea to get involved with that monster. 

"Try to avoid confronting Shen Minyao in the next few days. So long as we won't meet her, she won't actively pursue the bet," Shen Qing said without knowing that she was wrong with her assumptions. 

"Oh, to think that my dear cousin would purposely run away to avoid our bet." A familiar voice came from the doorway of the classroom where Shen Qing and Xu Shenshen stayed. Behind her stood Li Fei'er and Lu Anqi with a grin on their faces. 

It seemed that everyone was now aware of the results of the midterm exams, which made them aware that she and Xu Shenshen had lost the bet they made with Shen Minyao.

Both of them shuddered once they saw the mocking smile gracing Shen Minyao's lips. They couldn't help but feel the shiver that ran down their spines, especially Xu Shenshen who wasn't willing to relieve the torture she suffered under Shen Minyao's hands previously. After that, how could she not fear this woman? 

"Cousin…" Shen Qing was rendered speechless. She didn't expect that Shen Minyao was shameless enough to seek after them as soon as the results were out. 

She thought that Shen Minyao would still be basking in the glory she recently received hours after the announcements. Who would have thought that as soon as the results were out, Shen Minyao would want to get her reward on the spot? 

"So you aren't planning to honor your words, huh?" Shen Minyao ignored the curious gazes of other people and strode towards Shen Qing and Xu Shenshen. 

"Cousin, what are you doing here? Don't think that you can bully me and Xu Shenshen. The classes aren't over yet, and we could still report you to the faculty if you dare to lay a hand on us!" Shen Qing threatened Shen Minyao. 

"Oh? Qing Jie, weren't you the ones who suggested having a bet with me? And now you are telling me to fuck off… just because you wouldn't want me to sully your beautiful face?" The fox woman retorted. "Qing Jie, if I was the one who lost the bet right now, I'm pretty sure you and Classmate Xu would have already dragged me away and beaten me up for good." 

Those who were listening to their conversation agreed with Shen Minyao's words. Knowing Xu Shenshen's history as a school bully, despite being a campus belle like Shen Qing, she would certainly not waste her time and get even with Shen Minyao immediately. 

Xu Shenshen wouldn't waste her time and would get even with Shen Minyao if the latter had truly lost the bet between them. After all, she had suffered humiliation recently because of Shen Minyao's beating.

"You!" Xu Shenshen glared daggers at Shen Minyao. Ever since this woman's return, Shen Minyao had made her life a living hell just from her mere presence. 

Xu Shenshen didn't know how Shen Minyao grew aware of her affairs? She thought that she'd been doing well, keeping everything under the wraps. 

Was Shen Minyao a demon, then? If she wasn't, how did she know about the details? 

"What about me, Classmate Xu? I wasn't the one who forced you to make this bet, right? Why do you act like I was the one who's at fault here?" The fox woman looked at Xu Shenshen with amusement in her eyes. 

It was as if she couldn't wait to slap these two and enjoy her reward. Some students never thought that Shen Minyao had this side to her, but they didn't worry about Shen Qing and Xu Shenshen. 

"Ah, there are really some people who are shameless enough to pretend to be the victim," someone commented, making Shen Qing inwardly sneer at it. 

"Right. They were the ones who forced this bet on Shen Minyao, so how come they would shamelessly act like this?" 

"Dear, what are you expecting? Our precious campus belle Shen Qing surely couldn't afford to have her face ruined by her cousin." 

"But do you think Shen Minyao would dare to slap them?" Someone asked.

Xu Shenshen may be known as a campus belle at Spring Hill High, but it also couldn't be denied that there were female students who hated her guts. That woman purposely seduced some of their boyfriends and made those boys cheat on them. 

So, in those young women's eyes, Shen Qing was nothing but a two-faced slut who knew how to use her beautiful face to her advantage. They were also not surprised when they heard that Shen Qing wanted her cousin to dissolve her engagement to Su Yin, so Shen Qing could flaunt their relationship in public. 

"Well, don't think that I would easily let you off, Qing Jie, but since you remind me that classes are still being held, let's do this some other time." Shen Minyao grinned as she checked her well-manicured hands, making Shen Qing hate her more for her arrogance. 

Since Shen Minyao's return, Shen Qing had to endure hearing praises to her cousin and how beautiful Shen Minyao had become. So how could she not hate her cousin when she once caught Su Yin looking at Shen Minyao from afar? 

"Shen Minyao…" Shen Qing clenched her fists below her desk and glared at her cousin. 

Shen Minyao chuckled and swayed her hand in goodbye. Her eyes were mocking the two women, knowing that Shen Qing wouldn't stay still and do nothing now that they were aware 

"I'll see you some other time then~" she sang out, "but don't think you and Classmate Xu can avoid giving me my sweet reward for too long." 

When she and her friends left Shen Qing and Xu Shenshen, the other students started another round of rumors about them. They were about Shen Qing and Xu Shenshen not willing to honor their words as soon as the results of the exams were out. 

The more Shen Qing listened, the more she cursed Shen Minyao in her heart. If this persisted, her reputation at school would grow worse. Perhaps, she should seek Su Yin's help this time to avoid being beaten by Shen Minyao in the future. 

"Schoolmate Shen, are you sure you are just going to let them go unscathed like that?" Lu Anqi asked while Shen Minyao was ignoring the curious gazes the other students threw their way as they walked in the hallways. 

"There's no need to rush, Lu Anqi.. I know Shen Qing would easily yield and admit things."
