Chapter 153 - 153 153 Tan Rou cheated
153 153 Tan Rou cheated
When Wei Ling heard them talking about the surveillance cameras, she subconsciously tensed up and was a little worried.
Tan Rou smiled. “Then let’s wait and see.”
She did not say anything else and walked out of the classroom with Madam Li.
There wasn’t much time left for the exam and so no one was in the mood to check out what was happening to Tan Rou. They just raised their heads for a short while and went back to answering their papers.
In their perspectives, the words of a teacher were always more authoritative. What Madam Li said must have been true.
They didn’t expect for Tan Rou to make such a low-level mistake. She would be receiving the biggest punishment! It’s fine if you didn’t do well in your exams but why did you take it so hard and actually cheat? She was really going against the tides.
As soon as the bell rang, the exam papers were handed in. The students in the exam hall swarmed out of the classroom and ran to tell their friends about it.
There were no secrets in this school; not to mention that this was such a big news. Soon, the whole school knew that Tan Rou had cheated and was taken away by Madam Li.
When Tan Jing heard about this incident, it was already spreading in an exaggerated manner. The version of how Tan Rou refused to admit her mistakes and rebutted Madam Li had spread amongst the students.
Everyone couldn’t hide their excitement and watched the show.
The school was very strict about their rules. They didn’t expect that Tan Rou, who looked cold, would act so boldly in her first exam!
Tan Jing laughed in a good mood. She didn’t expect Wei Ling to be so efficient and hardworking. She had destroyed Tan Rou in the first paper itself.
Tan Rou, let’s see how you’re going to explain this!
Tan Jing took advantage of the break time to take back her phone. With a light tap of her finger, she sent a text message to the head of faculties in Chen Yi’s name, hinting that the Tan family had some personal grievances that needed to be dealt with. She hoped that they would take responsibility for this matter, deal with the surveillance cameras, and teach Tan Rou a lesson.
The Tan family had donated two teaching buildings to the school. The Dean had been very polite to Tan Song and Chen Yi and so, he would not refuse to help them.
Tan Jing had planned all of this for a long time. She had secretly recorded the Dean’s number from Chen Yi’s mobile phone. She had been waiting for this moment!
By the time Madam Li brought Tan Rou to the head of the faculty, Director Wang had already received the text message. He was currently stroking his bald head and pretending to be enjoying his tea in the office.
Madam Li went straight to the point. “Director Wang, this is a student in my exam hall. She brought in her notes and was caught cheating. Take a look.” As she spoke, she passed the note to Director Wang.
Director Wang took the note and glanced at it before putting it aside. He said to Tan Rou in a serious tone, “I remember you just got transferred into our school, right? The purpose of this test was to understand the students and determine their learning direction. It’s understandable that you want to get good grades but your attitude towards this isn’t correct. You’ve used the wrong method!”
Tan Rou stood up straight and sneered. “Why do all of you convict students directly? The matter hasn’t even been investigated clearly and you’re already accusing me of making a mistake, lecturing me for my actions. What’s wrong with you?”
Director Wang’s expression froze. “You…”
“Tan Rou, don’t you have any respect for your elders?” Madam Li scolded in a sharp voice. “You’re always quibbling when you’ve made a mistake and you even dare to treat the director with such an attitude!”
Director Wang shook his head helplessly. “Dear, it’s not scary to make a mistake. What’s important is your attitude. You shouldn’t have such crooked ideas in your head. Why are you so disobedient? Do you need me to invite your parents over to see what you’ve done? Won’t you feel embarrassed for what you’ve done?
Tan Rou looked at the two of them with disdain. Such people were not worthy of being teachers.
She didn’t want to be entangled with them anymore. She turned her face and said directly, “I did not cheat. So, what’s there to be embarrassed about? I want to check the surveillance cameras and see the principal!”
Madam Li gritted her teeth. “Alright, I’ll satisfy you with what you want! Let’s go to the principal’s office and look at the surveillance footage together. I’ll see what else you can say then. It’s hard to say how the principal will punish you then!”
A hint of awkwardness flashed in Director Wang’s eyes. The Tan family had just signalled him and he could not offend the school’s God of Fortune.
He shook his head and pretended to be deep in thought. “The principal has a lot of things to deal with today. Don’t alarm him about such a simple case. I’ll handle it. If you really make a scene in front of the principal, I’m afraid the punishment will be even more severe. You may even be expelled.”
