nChapter 70 The Bet

nThe teacher slowly unfolded the paper ball that she had confiscated from Fatty and saw the words on it clearly.

nThe invigilator suddenly blushed and scolded softly, “Nonsense!”

nWang Xiaomei immediately said, “That’s right, cheating in an examination is ridiculous. Teacher, you should bring them to see our form teacher!”

nHowever, the invigilator said to her, “Go back and answer the questions properly. This is a misunderstanding. No one has cheated. This matter ends here. The two of you, sit down and answer the questions properly! You can’t pass notes around during an examination!” Fatty beamed. He thanked the teacher and returned to his seat.

nXie Chaochao looked at Wang Xiaomei and said, “Remember what you said just now. I’ll wait for you to bark like a dog!”

nWang Xiaomei’s eyes were filled with disbelief. “Teacher, they were obviously cheating. How could you cover for them?”

nWhen the invigilator heard this, her expression became serious. “I won’t cover up for any student who has made a mistake. If they really cheated, I will definitely investigate thoroughly. However, the matter has been investigated. This is a misunderstanding. Why do you refuse to let the matter rest? What are you trying to do?”

nWang Xiaomei also realized that she had said the wrong thing in a hurry. When she spoke again, her tone was filled with grievance. “Teacher, I just don’t want to see anyone cheat. I think this is unfair!”

nThe invigilator couldn’t bear to question her again, so she handed the paper ball to her.

nWang Xiaomei was stunned when she saw the content.

nThe paper ball did not contain the answers like she had imagined. Instead, there were two sentences.

n“The invigilator is better-looking than our form teacher!”

n“Look at the blackboard!”

nThe words ‘Do the examination with integrity, answer the questions seriously’ were written on the blackboard.

nThe invigilator was a fresh university graduate. When she saw Fatty praising her, she was a little embarrassed, which was why she blushed.

nWang Xiaomei refused to accept this fact. “How could this be? I heard you discussing how to copy the answers. Why aren’t the answers on the paper?”

nFatty repeated what Xie Chaochao had told him the previous day. “Sister Chaochao said that one has to be honest and not cheat. Even if you do badly in the examination, it’s still more honorable than cheating!”

nThe invigilator nodded in agreement. “That’s right, this student is right! Even if our grades are not good, we can slowly improve it. However, cheating in the examination is a question of character. We can’t do it!”

n“Alright, go back and answer the questions. There’s not much time left!”

nAfter the farce, there was still half an hour left before the end of the examination.

nXie Chaochao focused all her energy on the paper and finally completed all the questions a second before the paper was collected.

nAfter two days of examinations, all the subjects were finally completed.

nThe students heaved a sigh of relief.

nThe teachers were so busy that they were nowhere to be seen. They rushed to mark the examination papers for the students and tabulate their scores. They strived to announce the results before they went home this time.

nOn Friday, the form teacher informed the students that they were to do self-study for the entire day. All the teachers had to mark the examination papers. After the teacher left, the students were no longer in the mood to study. Some chatted, while some played around.

nXie Chaochao was no exception. After she had completed the homework given by the teachers, she leaned on the table and played with Xiao Hua.

nAt this moment, Fatty suddenly tapped the table, attracting the attention of the entire class.

nHe said loudly, “Classmates, do you still remember the bet that someone mentioned during the examination?”

nWang Xiaomei’s expression froze.

nShe had been worrying about this matter for the past two days, praying that everyone would forget about it. Now that Fatty had mentioned it in front of the entire class, he was obviously going to settle scores with her.
