Chapter 164: What Truth?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In truth, Teacher Shen did not understand what Lu Ning wanted to do, but when she saw the test papers on the desks she guessed that she wanted them to do them.
...Hence, she had them take their seats at the desks first.
Lu Ning mouthed a couple words to Teacher Shen, who immediately understood.
Lu Ning also raised her hand and started the timer.
Teacher Shen looked at them. “There are pens on the desks. Now, start doing the test in front of you.”
Lù Yue’an looked at the test paper in confusion and looked up. “Teacher… why do you want us to do a test?”
Huo Jinyan turned to look at her. “There’s no need to ask questions.”
Lù Yue’an lowered her eyes and glanced at Huo Jinyan, subconsciously chewing her lip. She picked up the pen on the desk and began to do the test.
Jiang Yi looked to her left, then her right. She was the most perplexed amongst them.
This matter wouldn’t involve me at all no matter what, so why was I called over?
Teacher Shen first went to Class 3 to call Jiang Yi before going to Class 2 to call the others. Lù Yue’an had originally handled this matter very cleanly; however, when she saw Jiang Yi she became dubious, and said that she was also one of the whistle-blowers, then tagged along with her.
At first, she thought that it was a pity she could not see Lu Ning’s downfall with her own eyes, but now it seemed that she could witness it for herself. No matter what tricks she played, facts were facts. She could not escape.
Jiang Yi watched as Lù Yue’an started to do the test, and silently started on hers as well.
The teachers standing in the middle looked at each other, and for the moment they were unable to understand what was happening.
Only Huo Jinyan was sitting by the window, leaning back in his chair and surveying everyone, looking relaxed and calm.
Teacher Lang had been holding himself back because of Huo Jinyan, but he could not stand Lu Ning’s current actions. In his opinion, she was stalling for time.
No matter how much she delays it, I have to teach her a lesson today. She even cheated, what else would she not dare to do? She’s really an embarrassment to No. 1 High School!
The timer rang fifteen minutes later.
Everyone was startled. Lu Ning calmly raised her hand and pressed the timer, and the beeping stopped abruptly.
Teacher Lang finally could not take it anymore. “Lu Ning, what are you trying to achieve with this?! We teachers don’t have the time to mess around with you! As long as you tell us the truth, the teachers will try to be lenient with you.”
Lu Ning ignored him. Standing up, she glanced at him before collecting the test papers.
When she collected Lù Yue’an’s test paper, she even winked at her, causing Lù Yue’an to be taken aback.
Jiang Yi was also startled.
Looking at her, Huo Jinyan felt that she was inexplicably cute. The corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Test papers in hand, Lu Ning turned around and returned to Huo Jinyan’s desk. Without sitting down, she leaned against the desk and looked at all the teachers in the office. “Now, the truth is clear.”
She raised the papers in her hand, and everyone was astonished.
Truth?
What truth?
The first thing Teacher Lang did was to snatch the papers from her hands.
After browsing through them one by one, he looked up at Lu Ning. “Lu Ning, are you admitting that you cheated? Your handwriting is exactly the same as the handwriting on that previous test paper. What else do you want to make excuses for?”
Lu Ning crossed her arms and looked at him calmly with a smile. “Teacher
Lang, why are you in such a hurry? What are you going to do if I cheat?”
“Of course I have to give you a demerit, and submit a letter of warning! Your behavior is extremely…
Before he could finish, Lu Ning interrupted him. “Then what would you do if I hadn’t cheated?”
Teacher Lang looked at her and did not take it seriously at all. “If you’re not in the wrong, I’ll apologize to you in public. If it comes down to that, I’ll even write up a letter to reflect on my actions and have it circulated in the school for a week.]’
