199 199 Bad habit
The grading teachers were a little surprised and turned their heads to look at Tan Jing. “No, we’ve checked the results and were busy the whole night. There shouldn’t be any problems with it.”
Tan Jing put on an act and smiled. “Of course, no one will doubt the teachers. In fact, I don’t want to doubt Tan Rou, but you should know that Tan Rou went abroad to study when she was four years old. There wouldn’t have been a chance for her to learn anything in our school. She just transferred to our school and got a full score on the preliminary test. Don’t you think it’s strange?”
Tan Jing pretended to be distressed and pouted. “It’s normal to get full marks for English, but full marks for Chinese too? Those of us who have been learning Chinese since young aren’t convinced. As for the rest of the subjects, they weren’t taught overseas as well. Tan Rou’s results are indeed great but we can’t just look at the final results, we have to think about the problems too!”
Tan Jing’s words made the teachers suspicious too. Yes, the answers on the test paper were definitely correct, but where did the answers come from? Could it even be possible for Tan Rou to answer everything perfectly?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe teachers couldn’t make up their minds. They looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Tan Rou’s mouth twitched. “I’ve already agreed to retake the exam. Stop pretending to stand up for me.” Then, she looked at Tan Jing sarcastically.
Tan Jing smiled faintly and turned to look at the principal. “Principal, it’s a good thing that Tan Rou is willing to cooperate. I believe that she doesn’t have any bad intentions. You have to be more understanding of her. As long as she knows her mistakes and change in the future, this would be for a good cause.”
Tan Rou snorted coldly and turned her head away, not wanting to speak anymore.
She really hated Tan Jing’s self-righteous look. Tan Rou hadn’t even retaken the exam yet, but Tan Jing was already pleading for her. People who are shameless like her really has lots of tricks up their sleeves.
The principal glanced at Tan Rou with an unfathomable look, then answered Tan Jing with a chuckle, “I don’t think so. Tan Rou isn’t someone who makes mistakes easily.”
After he finished speaking, he ignored Tan Jing’s disbelieving expression and indifferently ordered, “Alright, I’ll be the invigilator. We will grade the papers on the spot. Which paper will you be taking first?”
Tan Jing did not expect the principal to be so arrogant and criticize her in public. What did he mean by Tan Rou was not someone who made mistakes easily? So, the principal was willing to believe Tan Rou?
‘What was going on? He was just smiling at me. Was it my illusion? Didn’t father already arrange everything?’
Hearing the principal’s question, Tan Jing snorted. “It’s the same no matter which subject you take.” In other words, all of Tan Rou’s results are fake and it wouldn’t matter which paper she sat for.
Tan Rou pretended not to hear her and randomly picked a test paper. “I won’t be sitting for English, in case you say that I have an advantage growing up abroad. Mathematics should be fine, right? They don’t teach us mathematics of this difficulty level overseas.”
Tan Jing pouted, unconvinced, but still added, “Mathematics alone isn’t convincing enough. You have to retake the liberal arts exam, right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTan Rou rolled her eyes and took out another liberal arts test paper. “Tan Jing, stop it with your bad habits. The only reason why I’m cooperating with you isn’t because I’m afraid of you, I only want to shut you up. Open your eyes wide and watch. Don’t say that you’re not convinced later on.”
The principal directly brought Tan Rou to the desk and patted her shoulder with his broad palm. His voice was low but full of warmth. “You’ll be taking the exams here. I’ll be the invigilator and no one will dare to say a word.”
Tan Rou smiled gratefully and did not decline. She sat on the principal’s desk, picked up a pen, and nodded slightly at the principal.
For some reason, seeing Tan Rou’s indifferent look, the principal also felt confident and stood to the side in anticipation.
Tan Jing still couldn’t bear to see Tan Rou receiving so much attention and couldn’t help but add fuel to the fire. “Tan Rou, you have to be more careful. There are so many people waiting here for your results. You’re just wasting everyone’s time.”
“Don’t worry, it won’t take long,” Tan Rou sneered.
After that, Tan Rou turned the tip of her pen and wrote down the answers on the paper at a very fast speed.
The teachers were stunned for two seconds before she pressed the timer. She was inexplicably nervous. Several teachers also unconsciously surrounded the desk, and several pairs of eyes were focused on Tan Rou’s answers.
Tan Jing’s heart was beating fast. She quickly walked forward and stood at the corner of the table, looking at Tan Rou. How could she write so fast? What was she doing?
