Fan Wenyuan sneered. “Arrogant! How can someone like you who doesn’t respect your elders be able to possess such high translation skills?”
He glanced down at the paper. It was full of very neatly written words.
Fan Wenyuan’s heart was still full of ridicule, but when he picked up the paper, his eyes instantly widened.
“Impossible!” Fan Wenyuan’s voice trembled.
The questions were all difficult and uncommon. How could Qiao Xi translate them so accurately?
Even if they were English students, it was impossible for them to know such vocabulary.
Impossible!
Qiao Xi must have studied it before, which was why she could translate these so well.
Fan Wenyuan forced himself to calm down and stared at the test paper.
His eyes were filled with shock. In the end, his fingers almost couldn’t hold the papers anymore.
Professor Wu stood next to Fan Wenyuan and looked at the paper seriously. His eyes widened in surprise.
He couldn’t help but praise, “Qiao Xi is truly a genius translator. She even understands such obscure words. Not only is she fluent, but her way with words is simply beautiful! Mr. Fan, her standard is indeed higher than yours!”
Fan Wenyuan nearly vomited blood!
How could Qiao Xi’s standard be higher than his?
But looking at her test paper, he had to admit it.
Fan Wenyuan was utterly humiliated. He slammed the table and roared, “This is absolutely impossible! Even if she had learned English, with her age, she wouldn’t have surpassed me. She must have seen the questions in advance and cheated again!”
Professor Wu was furious. “Mr. Fan, it’s not embarrassing to be inferior to others, but if you don’t admit it, then you’ll be letting down your title as a professional translator! You were the one who set the questions, and I’m afraid you don’t even know the answers yourself. How would Qiao Xi know? She has proven her ability and that she did not cheat! Are you so shameless that you won’t admit it?”
Fan Wenyuan’s face turned red. He was a famous translator, how could he let a junior surpass him?
“The Qiao family said that she grew up in the countryside and never learned English. Then tell me, how did she translate such professional articles?”
Professor Wu rolled his eyes at him and retorted, “Because Qiao Xi is a genius. Mr. Fan, you can deny it, but it’s the truth!”
Fan Wenyuan’s face was pale. His lips were trembling, but he could not say a word.
At this moment, a few students from the English department rushed in.
A top student picked up Qiao Xi’s paper, and after taking a look at it, his face was instantly filled with admiration. “Qiao Xi is absolutely a genius in the translation world! Even if I study English every day and night, it’s impossible for me to have such standards. Moreover, her vocabulary is very beautiful. This is a level of work we can never dream of attaining!”
Everyone agreed and passed on Qiao Xi’s paper to the next person.
“Mr. Fan, are you afraid that Qiao Xi will surpass you, so you accused her of cheating?”
“That must be it! Qiao Xi used retook the test to prove that she didn’t cheat, yet he still intends to wrongly accuse Qiao Xi. He just can’t afford to play the game!”
“What kind of sh*tty professional translator is he? As a senior, you can’t even tolerate a junior. How shameful!”
Fan Wenyuan gnashed his teeth in anger. If it weren’t because this was Li City University, he would have kicked all the students out.
The chancellor cleared his throat. “Mr. Fan, as you can see, Qiao Xi is indeed a genius translator. She did not cheat. If this matter gets out of hand, it’ll not be good for your reputation. Why don’t we forget about it?”
Without a word, Fan Wenyuan left.
He had an urge to burn that classroom.
These people were all witnesses. If they couldn’t speak and the paper disappeared, then they wouldn’t be able to prove Qiao Xi’s innocence.
He could not tolerate such a genius in the translation world!
Would this prove that Qiao Xi was wrongly accused?
He wasn’t going to let this go so easily. He still had a big trick up his sleeve!
The chancellor watched as Fan Wenyuan left. He handed the paper to Professor Wu with a smile and told him to keep it for future reference.
Li City University had produced a genius translator!
…
After Qiao Xi left the university, she saw Gu Zheng’s car as soon as she walked out of the gates.
The car window rolled down, revealing Gu Zheng’s devilish face. His eyes were deep as he said slowly, “Mrs. Gu, have you been bullied?”
Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Gu Zheng in surprise.
Since he asked sincerely, she had to seize the opportunity.
Qiao Xi originally didn’t care about this matter at all, but when Gu Zheng asked this question, she instantly clutched her chest and sobbed with a sorrowful expression. “Gu Zheng! They bullied me!”
It would have been fine if Gu Zheng had not asked, but now that he had asked, she felt that she should properly complain and vent her anger.
