From Fat and Ugly to Cambridge Queen: Watch Me Crush Them All

I found myself sitting in an exam hall, only to realize I had unexpectedly gained the ability to read minds?

With the knowledge from my past life, where I was effortlessly admitted to Cambridge, I breezed through the test without breaking a sweat.

Only when I stepped outside did I realize the original owner of this body was a total academic failure??

The unattainable male god, whom I had been chasing for years, was now crying and begging me to let him go?

...

"30 minutes remaining until the end of the exam. Please finish your answers as soon as possible."

I jolted, looking around the room in confusion.

Wait, did I just... time travel?

Did I go back three months, to the time of the college entrance exam?

A flood of memories hit me.

It turned out that the original owner of this body had fallen head over heels for the campus heartthrob, Dorian Cross. To win his affection, she showered him with food and gifts, following him everywhere. But Dorian saw her as a trophy to flaunt, publicly humiliating her and making her feel small. The original was soft-hearted, enduring three years of ridicule. To avoid standing out from her peers, she never disclosed her background. Her expensive belongings were often misunderstood, and just before the exam, she discovered that Dorian had publicly announced his relationship with the school beauty, Lilith Ashford. The bracelet the original had gifted him was now adorning Lilith’s wrist. Heartbroken, she succumbed to depression and ended her life during the exam.

And now, I had taken her place... with the added bonus of being able to read minds.

"He slept through the entire exam and finally woke up."

"Looking around... is he planning to cheat?"

I caught a glimpse of the invigilator’s suspicious gaze. Was this her inner voice?

I, Elena Vance, had just received my acceptance letter to Cambridge University when, out of nowhere, disaster struck. In a moment of excitement, I drowned on water!

What a shame, so embarrassing. But now the heavens had granted me a second chance. Watch me live this life to the fullest!

I quickly glanced at the exam paper, and instantly knew what to do. With half an hour remaining, I finished the entire test. A deep sigh of relief escaped me.

The original owner had only written her name on the paper—how ironic, her name was also Elena. She had spent the final half-hour of the exam without even answering a single question. Was she some kind of genius who could slack off and still pass?

The bell rang.

I hummed a tune as I followed the flow of students out of the hall. A massive banner hung above the entrance:

"Good luck, Princess Elena, for your exam!"

Huh?

A lavishly dressed woman ran up from under the banner and embraced me.

"Elena, finishing the exam is a victory in itself! Don't worry about your grades. We have more than enough money to support you."

I was stunned. Rich, yes. But her words made it sound like I had done terribly on the test.

A stretched-out Maybach pulled up in front of me. My mother ushered me into the car. I could hear her thoughts:

"Elena can't possibly be that devastated, right? She always comes last in her exams, but she's such an optimistic child. Why is she so silent now? No, no, no... I’ll buy her an LV bag to cheer her up."

I was dumbfounded. The original owner was a total academic failure??

"Elena, let’s buy you a purse as a reward. You’re my precious girl!"

The woman in front of me beamed with affection, and for a moment, I felt a pang of sadness. In my past life, I was an orphan. I never experienced this kind of familial love.

"Uh-oh, you don’t like the purse anymore? Are you about to cry? Oh, my dear daughter..."

A thought floated through my mind.

"It’s okay, Elena. I’ll buy you a whole school if you want. You can study there as long as you like, and I’ll make sure it’s one that feels familiar!"

Oh my god!

I quickly stopped her, putting on a sweet act and asking for seafood for dinner, which made her happy again.

Later that night, as I stared at the enormous king crab and Australian lobster on the table—bigger than my face—I fell into deep thought.

The next morning, my father, dressed in a flashy suit with gold chains hanging from every part of his body, took the wheel himself, driving me to the exam hall.
