Tan Jing was not happy with that. Its easy for you to say. Where will we be able to find the papers now? Also, you need at least one and a half hours to answer one single paper? You want all of us to be waiting for you here?
The us that Tan Jing was referring to was not just her, Tan Rou, and the princ.i.p.al. It also included the students who had rushed over and were looking into the princ.i.p.als office.
The princ.i.p.als eyes swept outside the door, but he did not say anything. Tan Jing had repeatedly said that these students were the ones who werent convinced by Tan Rous results. The princ.i.p.al had also planned for the students outside to be the witness of this conflict, just in case Tan Jing went back on her words.
The princ.i.p.al turned his head and said to Tan Jing, Its not difficult to find an exam paper. In order to make sure that our exams are fair, there are always two sets of exam papers before the exam and one set will be taken during the exam. Theres still a spare set available now.
The princ.i.p.al looked out the window and said, Is that Xu Yan? I remember youre the cla.s.s monitor, right? Go to the office and find the other teachers now so that they can bring the extra set of papers.
Xu Yan hurriedly replied, Sure! Ill go right now! Then, he glanced at Tan Rou before jogging away.
Tan Jing didnt expect the princ.i.p.al to agree to Tan Rous method of self-verification so easily. Although she was a little reluctant at first, she suddenly thought of how Tan Rou would not be able to answer the questions or get all of them wrong in front of all these students. Having the marking teacher mark Tan Rous paper on the spot would be quite satisfying. It wouldnt matter if they had to wait for a while more.
However, she couldnt let Tan Rou stall for time. She had to quickly make Rou expose her true self. Tan Jing hinted, You cant do all the subjects at once, right? How long would you need for that? Tan Rou, which subjects do you plan to retake?
Tan Rou smiled and looked at Tan Jing coldly. Why are you so problematic? Ill take whatever exam I want. Are you going to interfere with that too?
Tan Jing was furious. She glared at Tan Rou and complained to the princ.i.p.al, Princ.i.p.al, look at her! She wont hate me because of this, right? I was just asking out of goodwill, but look at how shes trying to fight me!
Li Li was so angry that she couldnt care less about the princ.i.p.al who was present. She couldnt help but interrupt from outside the door, Can you stop acting pitiful? Youre the one whos been saying everything, the good and the bad. All of us acknowledged Tan Rous results! Youre the one whos being troublesome! Tan Rou has already agreed to your challenge. What else do you want?!
After Li Li finished speaking, the students around them also started to make a commotion.
Indeed, as Li Li had said, although everyone was surprised and couldnt believe it, they didnt doubt Tan Rou. After all, the teachers from their school were the ones who graded the papers. Tan Jings actions were a little strange. She maintained an aggressive posture, as if she had to prove something.
Tan Jing secretly hated Tan Rou. In the past, she could have easily incite others with a few words and isolate Tan Rou.
But now, Tan Rou has her own supporters. More and more people were standing on Tan Rous side. Her unyielding att.i.tude this time must be very suspicious in their eyes.
However, Tan Jing couldnt care less. If she didnt do this, she would lose a lot of people who supported her. Everyone would be attracted by the t.i.tle of the prodigy that Tan Rou had and no one would remember her.
Since that was the case, Tan Jing might as well go all out and risk it.
After a while, Xu Yan rushed over with a few of the teachers in charge of the exams.
A few teachers looked at the students inside and outside the room in a daze. Xu Yan ran in a hurry and only urged them to find the test papers and bring them to the princ.i.p.als office. He didnt have the time to tell them what happened.
Then, a few teachers saw Tan Rou and walked up to her eagerly. They looked at Tan Rou with a gratified expression. Some of the teachers had a loving look on their faces. Tan Rou, what are you doing here so early in the morning? youre such an outstanding child. Come to my office later! We shall have a talk soon!
There were some teachers who were more reserved. Why are you tormenting the child? Tan Rou, you mustnt be too proud of yourself! I have to keep up the good work!
They said these with eyes that were full of love and admiration for Tan Rou.
Tan Jing watched from the side and almost gritted her teeth. This was the last thing she wanted to see!
Why was Tan Rou getting pampered and loved as if she was the moon amongst the stars? Why are all the teachers staring at Tan Rou as if she was a priceless treasure!
If I dont get her to prove her mistake, shell get to enjoy this kind of treatment in school in the future. What face will I have then!
No! Tan Rou must have cheated! Hurry up and let her answer the questions! Quickly expose her!
Tan Jing said in a hurry, Teachers, you may not be aware yet but Tan Rous results are questionable. The princ.i.p.al have asked you to be here so that Tan Rou can retake the exams to prove herself!
Tan Jing felt that she had been too anxious after she finished speaking. She smiled awkwardly. Itll only be convincing if she can score full marks again in all of her papers..
