the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart-Chapter 996: Don’t Get Cocky, But Add a Drumstick for Dinner Tonight—Awoo

"Hahaha, Sophia Winton, you’re fifteenth from the bottom, you better study hard." Nova Howard laughed loudly, happier than when Crystal Landon got 90th place, even though Nova herself got first place.

"Nova, you ranked 65." A classmate who was close to Nova quickly said.

Nova Howard cheerfully pulled Crystal Landon’s arm, not caring at all about her own rank.

"This is cheating, it must be cheating, I’m going to report it." Sophia Winton shouted angrily, her face was livid.

Crystal Landon snorted coldly, too lazy to pay her any attention. The more you pay attention to people like that, the more they get energized.

"Let’s go, let’s go home." Crystal Landon pulled Nova Howard to go home.

"Crystal, how did you suddenly manage to score so high?" Nova Howard couldn’t believe it; Crystal’s college entrance exam results were so bad.

Crystal Landon herself didn’t expect to score so well. Although her foundation was poor, her scores had always been among the top before the third year of junior high school. Coupled with a good memory, learning wasn’t too difficult. The main thing was, before this exam, Hawk Howard and Richard Shaw both highlighted key points for her, so she ended up merging the two study methods together, using a little trick.

"Crystal, I’m so happy, no one will dare to say you have big breasts but no brains anymore. We’ll just aim for the best university and make them furious." Nova Howard laughed so much her eyes turned into slits.

Crystal Landon curled her lips slightly, not to be arrogant, but tonight when she got home, she’d definitely add a chicken drumstick to her meal, woohoo.

Upon returning to the Shaw Mansion, Crystal Landon was ready to rush into the living room to be coy with Grandma Shaw, when she saw Aunt Zhao coming out from the living room, signaling to her with her eyes, and whispered, "Miss Landon, your parents are here to take you home."

Crystal Landon froze for a moment, and her smile quickly disappeared from her face.

She carried her backpack into the living room, and sure enough, saw her father, mother, and Pearl Landon all there. Since Pearl Landon went abroad to study, Crystal’s heart had gradually cooled, and she seldom called her parents. Her parents basically didn’t care about her either; under the same roof, they lived in peace, you could say.

If not for Grandma Shaw often inviting her to stay over, Crystal Landon even suspected her parents would’ve completely treated her as invisible.

"Crystal, back from school?" Pearl Landon, wearing a red dress with a hem covered in pearls, giving her a more elegant and lovely appearance, walked forward with a smile. Pearl Landon always took the path of the literary family’s noble lady, so it was rare to see her in such a bright color, probably trying to catch some eyes.

Crystal Landon nodded lightly, placed her backpack in her room, and heard her not-very-close mother calling with a smile, "Crystal, come over quickly, Grandma Shaw was just talking about you. You’re really too thoughtless, staying at Grandma Shaw’s place for half a month."

Crystal Landon put down her backpack, thought for a moment, went out of the room; she really wanted to see what purpose Pearl Landon had in bringing their parents here.

In the living room, Grandma Shaw laughed and said, "I like this child, and since the Shaw Mansion is big with few people, having Crystal here makes it lively."

Her mother wasn’t particularly bad, just a bit petty, giving all her love to Pearl Landon. She wasn’t very clear-headed, and never really stood out in the noble circles. To put it simply, she wasn’t too clever, and the ladies she socialized with were of similar caliber, not really impressive.

Her father was entirely focused on business, never really caring about the children’s affairs, but business had been getting worse year after year, losing in everything he did, until her brother Clark Landon returned to take over, and things started to improve.
