Chapter 161: Lu Ning, Cheating?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Seeing that she actually changed her mind on the spot, that teacher sneered at her.
“Teacher Shen, can the two of you even be more brazen than that? Changing your account after you’ve admitted it? Are you taking us for fools?”
With one hand in her pocket, Lu Ning looked at this teacher. He was the form teacher of Class 1, 2, and 3, and his surname was Lang.
Teacher Lang liked to compare his students with the students of other classes. In his opinion, he was leading the best students, while the students from other classes were all trash; hence, none of the other classes liked him except his own. Whenever he was substituting for another class, the students would yell into the class, ‘Wolf! Wolf!’.
He glared at Lu Ning and pointed at her. “Lu Ning, don’t play any tricks with me. All the teachers know your grades; can you even get such a score?!”
He waved the test paper in front of Lu Ning. The score of ’98’ in the middle of the test paper was exceptionally eye-catching.
Lu Ning did not get worked up at all. She was very calm and stared at him with her hands in her pockets. “Teacher Lang, you already said that I can’t get such a score. Doesn’t that prove this test paper isn’t mine?
Teacher Lang was startled. Then, pointing at her, he looked at everyone present. “Look at her, look! Students like her simply have so many excuses! If she had cheated, then she should just admit that she cheated, yet she keeps talking back! I don’t believe students like her should be allowed to step foot in No. 1 High School! If we permit them to study here, our school’s name will be dragged through the dirt. They’re the cancer of society!’ Lu Nings gaze gradually turned cold.
“Teacher Lang, how can you say that about a student?!”
Teacher Shen pointed at him angrily.
“That’s enough, Teacher Shen. You can’t escape responsibility for covering up for your student; the results of this monthly exam will be recorded into the system. I’ve turned a blind eye to your actions in the past, but you’ve crossed a line this time. Don’t cover up for her anymore. The truth is plain to see!”
Lu Ning tugged Teacher Shen’s arm.
She turned to look at Teacher Lang, and then at Qian Qian.
Qian Qian noticed her gaze and instinctively averted her eyes. This issue must have something to do with her!
“Teacher Lang, even if you say that I cheated, you should still clarify what happened, right? I don’t think you need to review the papers from my class, so how did you find out about this? Whose answers did I copy? Who did I cheat with?”
Teacher Lang looked at her and snorted. “Look, you’re admitting it, aren’t you? What did all your education amount to? Despite you having been in the Lù family for so many years, the Lù family failed to groom you into a prim and proper lady, and instead you grew up into a thief! Truly, once a crook, always a crook. Fortunately, you’re no longer a member of their household, so the Lù family won’t be embarrassed by you. Even I am embarrassed!”
Although he was a teacher, his remarks were filled with personal attacks against the students.
“Teacher Lang! That’s going overboard.”
A teacher at the side could not help but speak up.
“How is it overboard?! If we don’t reprimand people like her, there will be many in society who will despise her in the future! She’s…”
He stretched out his finger and was about to walk over when he was grabbed by a gaunt, sinewy hand.
“T-Teacher Huo…
Huo Jinyan clenched his fists and stared down at him. With his height, this was a form of suppression.
“I’ll be the one to say what the students in my class are like. Teacher Lang, aren’t you being a little too nosy?
His voice resounded in the office, deep-toned and intimidating.
“Teacher Huo, are you going to cover for your student as well? You’re spitting on the ethics of teaching!”
Huo Jinyan glared at him coldly.. “Ethics? And you have these?”
