What did Shi Mu do that night? Why did he not go home? No matter how Shi Man asked him, he refused to tell her in detail.

Shi Man had no choice but to wait until he was willing to speak before asking in detail.

The next day, the school would announce the results, grade rankings, and homework. Hence, all the students had to be present.

Shi Man and Su Tang walked into the classroom at the right time. As soon as they entered, Chen Wei hurriedly ran over and said happily, “Sister Man, you’re the top student again this time. You’re really amazing! Our Class F’s results will depend on you!”

Su Tang was very happy when she heard this. She congratulated her with a smile. “Manman, the highest scholarship in the cohort this time will definitely be yours!”

Shi Man did not feel anything about the bonus. She sat back in her seat indifferently and deliberately teased her. “If it weren’t for me, this money would probably be yours!”

Su Tang blushed and smiled shyly. “I’m not that good to get first place in the cohort.”

Before Shi Man came, she was only the top student in Class F. Although she had also been at the top of the cohort, her scholarship was still very meager. Now that someone was ranked ahead of her, she probably did not even have the money from before. However, she was also happy that Shi Man could successfully obtain the highest reward.

The classroom was discussing their results excitedly, but Geng Hui stood at the door with a serious expression and shouted, “Su Tang, Shi Man, come out for a while.”

Su Tang looked at Shi Man in confusion. Then, she put down her things and followed Geng Hui to the principal’s office.

At this moment, the office was filled with school leaders.

Su Tang suddenly felt uneasy and hid behind Shi Man in fear.

Shi Man immediately patted her hand comfortingly and smiled politely at the principal, who was sitting at the head of the table with a terrible expression. “Principal, why did you call us here?”

The principal looked at her deeply and placed the two test papers in front of her. “Take a look for yourself.”

These two papers belonged to the two of them. However, what was shocking was that not only were the options on the entire page identical, but even the problem-solving process behind them was exactly the same.

Even if both of them answered correctly, every step of solving the question seemed to be copied and pasted. That meant that there was a very serious problem.

Someone was secretly transmitting the answer under the invigilator’s nose.

Shi Man frowned and clearly realized the seriousness of the problem. She said in a deep voice, “Teacher, we didn’t violate the rules.”

The principal also wanted to believe the two of them, but ever since Class S’s form teacher, Hu Jing, graded these two papers, she had been pestering him to find out the truth.

He knew how much Hu Jing cared about the results. Now that the top two students in the cohort had been taken by these two students from Class F, he was naturally unwilling. Therefore, he could only call the two of them over before the results were released to see if he could explain the problem clearly.

Su Tang also looked at the paper in confusion. When she noticed the last big question, she suddenly snatched the paper in shock. After carefully identifying it, she said in shock, “I didn’t write this. I didn’t solve the last question. The rest of it was empty!”

Hu Jing had an “as expected” expression on her face. She turned around and looked at the principal angrily. “Look, this little girl has finally admitted it! Just now, Mr. Geng also admitted that Shi Man violated the rules and handed in her paper early. Perhaps she wanted to clear her name. In fact, she had already told Su Tang the correct answer!”

Shi Man’s cold gaze suddenly turned to her. She narrowed her eyes dangerously and said, “There are surveillance cameras in the examination hall. Won’t you know if we secretly passed the answers if you check the footage?”

Hu Jing sneered and crossed her arms, her face full of disdain. “The surveillance cameras have already been automatically replaced and deleted. Isn’t this was the reason why you dared to cheat openly? Oh, right! On the day of the invigilation, Yi Zheng even came to the office to cause trouble. Did you guys collude to violate the exam rules?”

Her words became bolder and bolder. The principal couldn’t take it anymore and slammed the table angrily. “Shut up! The matter hasn’t been investigated clearly. Don’t spout nonsense!”

Yi Zheng was a shareholder of Cassel Academy. If Hu Jing’s words reached his ears, the principal would probably have to leave with her!

However, things had already come to this point. It was obviously impossible to not come to a conclusion.

Shi Man was Yi Zheng’s fiancee. The principal could not afford to offend her, but Su Tang…

He suppressed the guilt in his heart and stared at Su Tang seriously. “Do you have any way to prove that you didn’t write this? Several teachers in the school, including Mr. Geng Hui, who knows you best, have seen it just now. They all said that this is your handwriting!”

“I really didn’t write this!”

Su Tang could not defend herself. She looked at Shi Man as if asking for help. However, just as she moved her gaze away from the principal’s face, she saw Geng Hui, who looked troubled, and Hu Jing, who was gloating. She suddenly understood her current situation..
