197 197 Retake the exam
The principal was enraged. He was rendered speechless by Tan Song’s rudeness. He can’t imagine how such parents would educate their child. Could it be that Tan Rou’s matter was really related to the daughter of the Tan family?
Without any evidence, the principal did not dare to make any conjectures. He could only comfort himself that the ignorant and vulgar parents should not take their anger out on their children. Perhaps, after receiving adequate education, their child would still be well-educated and reasonable.
However, he didn’t expect that instead of venting his anger on Tan Jing, Tan Jing would come knocking on his door.
The principal looked coldly at Tan Jing’s smug expression. He could immediately tell that Tan Jing and Tan Song were the same kind of people. They think that they were superior to others just because their families were rich. They used this as a bargaining chip and thought that everyone would please and obey them.
Tan Jing was supposed to be at the age where she was innocent, but her smile at this time was full of worldly aura, as if she had already understood the unspoken rules between adults and took it as a form of entertainment. It even faintly revealed her gradually decaying soul.
The principal shook his head and sighed helplessly, “So? What do you want to do?”
Tan Jing still gave him her grand explanation. “I want you to be a witness to allow Tan Rou to prove herself.”
The principal smiled bitterly. “Instead of focusing on your studies every day, you have your mind filled with getting me to solve all these matters. Last time, I made the decision to give Tan Rou a chance to prove that she didn’t cheat and also punished the criminal. Now you’re telling me that Tan Rou’s grades are not true. Are you trying to say that Tan Rou cheated?”
Tan Jing pretended to shake her head. “That’s not what I meant. I just need you to find a way to verify her results. I’m not the only one who has doubts about this. Everyone knows that Tan Rou hasn’t been a good student and such results are really unconvincing.”
The principal fell into deep thought for a while. Then, he looked directly at Tan Rou with a deep gaze. “Tan Rou, what do you think?”
Tan Rou looked at the principal and suddenly felt the profound meaning and anticipation in his eyes. The principal believed in her, but he did not want to be the one to reject Tan Jing’s request. He was looking forward to Tan Rou facing her enemies head on and bringing her true strength to the stage to defeat Tan Jing.
Tan Rou’s lips curled up. She also had the same intention.
Tan Rou nodded at the principal and said, “I can prove it. It’s not the first time anyway, so one more time won’t make a difference. But, I do have something that I would like to remind Tan Jing.”
Tan Rou tilted her head and looked at Tan Jing with a slightly provocative look. “You can’t represent everyone. If you have the balls, just admit that it’s only you who has been suspicious. Don’t drag everyone into it. If you say directly that you, Tan Jing, don’t accept my results and doubt me, I will respect you and be honest with you. What’s the point of bringing other people into this?”
Tan Rou sneered. “Besides, I’ve never said that my results were bad. Whether my results are real or not, you shall see it later with your own eyes.”
Tan Jing bit her lip and stared at Tan Rou timidly, as if she had been bullied.
Tan Rou’s aura was a little scary. Every time Tan Rou acted like this, Tan Jing would be inexplicably speechless, as if she had been traumatized. She was afraid that Tan Rou would go berserk in the next second and beat her up.
However, this was the principal’s office. No matter how arrogant Tan Rou was, she wouldn’t dare to do anything. She even dared to say such harsh words. We’ll see how Tan Rou would be able to ‘prove’ herself later on.
Tan Jing sobbed. “It’s fine if you’re angry at me, but you have to keep your word in front of the principal. You can’t continue making the same mistake!. Find a way to prove it then! What’s the use of scaring me?!”
Tan Rou rolled her eyes. Tan Jing only knew how to cry every time something happened. Doesn’t her eyes hurt?
The principal glanced at Tan Jing coldly. “Don’t cry. Be quiet.”
He then asked Tan Rou in a tone that was much more gentle than before. “What do you want to do? ”
Tan Jing blinked. She felt that the principal’s attitude was a little strange. Why was it different from just now? Wasn’t he smiling at her earlier? She had been yelled at by Tan Rou, but instead of protecting Tan Jing immediately, he was asking Tan Rou what she wanted to do in such a gentle manner!
Tan Jing couldn’t figure out what was going on, but Tan Rou had been forced to agree to it. The evidence of Tan Rou cheating would be available soon and there was no need for the principal to do anything.
This time, her method was legitimate. Tan Jing didn’t need to use any connections, and she wasn’t afraid of any mistakes!
Tan Rou politely looked at the principal and smiled. “Since Tan Jing said that everyone is unconvinced, then let’s just call it that. I would like to request for each teacher to come up with another set of test papers and I’ll complete them in front of everyone here.”
