At this thought of this, Zhang Mingming panicked. His good life couldn’t be ruined like this, and definitely not by a piece of trash like Su Jin! He had to put a stop to this, so he looked at the principal and said,
“Principal, I don’t think there’s a need to go through so much trouble. There’s a simpler way. After all, we all have classes to teach. If we wait for Su Jin here, wouldn’t we also be wasting other students’ precious time?”
Su Jin was stunned when she heard this. She looked at Zhang Mingming warily. What was this guy trying to do now? However, she was curious about whatever sneaky idea this guy came up with so she kept quiet.
The principal was also stunned when he heard this. Then he was a little confused. If they wanted to prove if Su Jin cheated, what better method did they have other than what they are doing now, which was to get Su Jin to answer new questions on the spot? The principal asked in confusion,
“Oh? What other method do you have?”
Zhang Mingming put down his pen and paper and straightened his clothes. He stole a glance at Yu Haiyang before looking at the crowd. There were so many people here, Yu Haiyang shouldn’t be bold enough to do anything… With some comfort, Zhang Mingming said,
“In order not to waste everyone’s precious time, why don’t we take a vote? If half of the people raise their hands because they believe that Su Jin is a straight-A student, then she is indeed capable!”
Su Jin’s face darkened when she heard this. How was this a solution? It was obvious that he just wanted her expelled from school. None of the teachers here would believe that she was capable. She said coldly to Zhang Mingming,
“You call this a solution? It’s not appropriate at all.”
Zhang Mingming looked at Su Jin solemnly. This good-for-nothing was fighting back? He would never let her be number one. Otherwise, how could he continue living his good life? He said with a serious face,
“What? Can’t we teachers tell whether you are capable based on your usual performance?”
When the principal heard this, he also felt that Zhang Mingming’s words made some sense. He thought seriously for a moment. Usually, when teachers taught, they would also notice how well their students were doing. He nodded and said,
“I think Zhang Mingming’s method is workable. After all, time is precious. We can’t lengthen the investigation for a good-for-nothing like Su Jin.”
The principal had already concluded that Su Jin must have cheated. If she didn’t, how could she suddenly perform and score full marks? Unless God really came and took the exams for her… He continued lightly,
“Cut the crap. Let’s raise our hands and vote!”
Su Jin’s form teacher was very unhappy when she heard the principal’s words. Such a decision was too hasty. If they raised their hands to vote, Su Jin would definitely lose. So, she said unhappily,
“Principal, isn’t this a bit cursory? It’s more appropriate to set new questions.”
For some reason, the form teacher believed that Su Jin was capable of getting first place. It was impossible that she cheated. If she did, she wouldn’t be stupid enough to score full marks.
Zhang Mingming was very unhappy when he heard this. Now was the crucial moment. He absolutely couldn’t let anyone ruin his plan. Su Jin must lose. He didn’t want to carry a huge debt in future so he immediately said,
“You can’t be so protective because you are Su Jin’s form teacher. Let’s ask everyone’s opinion. Majority wins. Does everyone agree to vote on this matter?”
The other teachers nodded in agreement. After all, a student like Su Jin wasn’t worth their time. Besides, almost all the teachers here had placed bets on the forum and obviously they couldn’t let Su Jin win.
Although Zhang Mingming’s suggestion was a little unreasonable, in order to win money, they all played along and acted as if they understood their students very well. When the principal saw that everyone agreed, he nodded in satisfaction and said,
“Alright, since everyone feels that there’s no problem, let’s vote! Those who believe Su Jin, raise your hands now!”
After several minutes, only Su Jin’s form teacher had her hand up. The other teachers wouldn’t raise their hands because they didn’t believe Su Jin to begin with. Moreover, if Su Jin lost, they would make a lot of money so naturally no one raised their hands.
