Chapter 192: Chapter 192 Disagree? Let’s Argue
“You…” Zhou Ci’s expression changed instantly.
What this passage meant was conversations heard from others should not be accepted without critical scrutiny. After being passed through several iterations, white could be turned to black, and black to white. Thus, dogs resembled great macaques, macaques resembled humans, and there was a vast difference between humans and dogs, yet some would claim dogs resembled humans. This was why foolish people made grave errors.
By carefully examining what one heard, it could become a blessing; without scrutiny, one would be better off not having heard it at all.
The other party was mocking him for accepting hearsay without verification, hastily drawing conclusions.
Such a sharp-tongued and mean little witch.
No wonder Ye Wei’an said she couldn’t argue with her and was bullied by her.
“Sharp-tongued.” Zhou Ci resentfully dropped a few words, with an expression that showed disdain for arguing with her.
Shen Zhaozhao’s stubbornness flared up, and she immediately wanted to clarify things with him: “You are so unreasonable. I kindly asked for guidance, and if you don’t know the answer or don’t wish to respond, just say so. What gives you the right to insult people? Is this the quality of a top student? Just because you have good grades, you think you can look down on everyone and label people as you please? Now I’ve really ‘opened my eyes to the back of the knife!'”
Shen Zhaozhao’s voice was loud, and coupled with the fact that many people recognized Zhou Ci, she instantly attracted the attention of many onlookers.
Zhou Ci was usually the kind who buried himself in books, unlike the naturally talented top student Sheng Chuyi. He belonged more to the hardworking type of top students, who could barely maintain the second spot by studying desperately.
Of course, this wasn’t to say that Sheng Chuyi didn’t work hard; he could be the first whether he tried or not.
It wasn’t that Zhou Ci lacked intelligence either—in a place teeming with top students, relying solely on hard work certainly wouldn’t cut it.
But compared to Sheng Chuyi, Zhou Ci was still a step behind—a completely crushed second-place student.

Probably he had read himself silly, a little slow on the uptake, especially with things unrelated to his studies.
In dealing with Shen Zhaozhao’s case, he could have chosen a more tactful way to express himself, yet he chose to spout nonsense without thinking.
To put it nicely, he was frank and clear about what he liked and disliked. To put it unpleasantly, he couldn’t discern right from wrong, or black from white.
Add to that, Shen Zhaozhao began speaking from a high moral ground, and immediately, people started pointing fingers at Zhou Ci.
Zhou Ci was usually surrounded by flattery, but because he had been second for years, there was an ingrained sense of dissatisfaction and inferiority within him. At that moment, with people whispering behind his back, that strange sense of inferiority began to haunt him again.
The more inferior he felt, the more he feared being looked down upon by others.
At the moment, his gaze toward Shen Zhaozhao was like that towards a particularly loathsome creature.
And yet, Shen Zhaozhao had the stance of someone who was ready to argue—”not convinced, let’s debate.”
“Am I not right? I sincerely asked you for guidance, and you called me sharp-tongued right from the start, how is that justified? I don’t recall offending you, yet you are full of malice towards me. Can’t I at least ask why?”
“You know full well what you’ve done,” Zhou Ci huffed.
Shen Zhaozhao: “I’m not aware, perhaps you could enlighten me?”
Provoked by her, Zhou Ci blurted out in a rush to prove himself, “Why did you bully Ye Wei’an?”
“I bullied Ye Wei’an? When did this happen? How come I don’t know about it?” Shen Zhaozhao widened her eyes, her expression one of surprise.
