201 201 Learn from Tan Rou
The teacher had given her full marks, but Tan Jing still refused to believe it. She grabbed Tan Rou’s test paper and looked at it over and over again, repeating, “I don’t believe it. I don’t believe it. She’s an ignorant and incompetent person! How could she get full marks?”
The corners of Tan Rou’s mouth rose. She shook her head and said, “Tan Jing, don’t be crazy here. You’ve said that I cheated and now you’re saying that I’m ignorant and incompetent but, everyone was here watching. The principal and teachers were watching the entire time. Did I cheat? I didn’t.”
“I don’t believe…” Tan Jing only knew how to repeat this same phrase over and over again. Hatred and anger filled her heart. Why! How did Tan Rou answer the test paper with full marks?
The principal couldn’t bear to watch this farce anymore. He believed that Tan Rou didn’t cheat. Was there a need for a genius who could easily find the lost surveillance video to cheat?
Moreover, he didn’t like Tan Jing. Like Father, like daughter. Tan Song did have a good heart and his daughter also learned from him. Not only was she not a kind-hearted person, she had an evil personality. She was already filled with jealousy now at such a young age.
“Enough!” The principal had been in the military before, so his voice was righteous and loud. “The exam is already over. Record the score as it is. The first place shall be given to whoever deserves it!” His Hawk-like eyes swept across the surroundings, scaring the inexperienced students into taking two steps back.
“Go back to your class.”
After the students heard the principal’s words, they pushed each other back to the classroom.
“Oh my God, Tan Rou is amazing!” One of the students exclaimed.
“Scoring full in twenty-eight minutes? I wouldn’t even dare to dream of this.”
“If I can finish a test paper with full marks in an hour, I would be worshipping the test paper for the rest of my life….”
The students walked further and further away, leaving only Li Li and Xu Yan.
Li Li looked at Tan Rou happily, then raised her head and said to Tan Jing, “Some people can’t pass the exam themselves, so they accuse others of cheating. What a joke! What was this called? This is called going for wool and coming home shorn!”
Xu Yan didn’t say anything, but he let out a sigh of relief after seeing Tan Rou’s full score. He believed in tan Rou. She wasn’t the kind of student who would cheat. There might have been some misunderstandings in the past, but now everyone’s misunderstandings should have been cleared up.
“Go back to your classroom, all of you,” The principal asked them to go back to class.
Li Li said to Tan Rou,”Tan Rou, we’ll be leaving first.”
Tan Rou smiled and nodded at them. “Okay, see you in class.”
After Li Li and Xu Yan left, only Tan Rou, Tan Jing, the principal, and the invigilating teacher were left in the office.
Seeing how she could no longer beat Tan Rou academically, Tan Jing put on a pitiful look on her face.
Tan Rou was right when she said that Tan Jing should go to the dream-chasing entertainment industry; even a Sichuan Opera master would be impressed with Tan Jing’s ability of changing the look on her face effortlessly.
“Actually, I believed in Tan Rou. When she was abroad, she didn’t even get a graduation certificate. Now that she suddenly got first place in the grade, I was thinking that the students in school would be unhappy. That’s why I suggested that she take the exam again to clear her of any suspicion of cheating.” Tan Jing was very sincere, and her eyes were filled with tears.
“Now that her grades are authentic, I’m happy for her.”
“Don’t be happy for me.” Tan Rou didn’t want to accept her so-called ‘good intentions’. “You were the one who said it was impossible and was the loudest when you said that you didn’t believe me. Those who don’t know would think that you thought that I had cheated.”
Tan Jing clenched her teeth so hard that they were about to break, but she still had to put on a facade in front of the principal. “I’ve always believed that you didn’t cheat. It’s just that what you’ve done in the past really makes it hard for people to believe that the results are real.”
“Some people would say that the grapes are sour when they can’t have them. They work so hard, reading books and asking questions all day and night, but they still can’t get first place. What a pity!” Tan Rou hit the nail on the head. She had already heard from her mother about how Tan Jing got her good grades. How could she not take advantage of such favorable conditions here?
“Speaking of which,” The invigilator next to her spoke. “It seems that Tan Jing didn’t do well this time?”
There were only so many students here who came from wealthy families and the teachers would pay extra attention to these students. Lu Qing and Tan Jing were amongst them, and their results would be something that the teachers would always pay attention to.
Speaking of this, the fire in Tan Jing’s heart was about to burst out. She could only learn one or two things every day, and she memorized them until she turned nauseous. What did she get in the end?
In the end, she never came first place. She could accept that Lu Qing was first before, but now this little b*tch, Tan Rou, was first. How could she tolerate this?
