Chapter 69 Cheating

The invigilator looked at Xie Chaochao. “Were you the one who passed the paper ball around?”

Xie Chaochao looked back at Wang Xiaomei and nodded.

Fatty didn’t want to implicate Xie Chaochao and explained anxiously, “Teacher, I was the one who passed the paper ball to her first. It has nothing to do with her!”

Wang Xiaomei obviously did not want Xie Chaochao to get away with it. She said to the teacher, “Teacher, he’s lying. I clearly saw Xie Chaochao writing something on the paper ball and even passing it to the back. They were in cahoots. Yesterday, I even heard them discussing how to pass the answers around!”

The teacher said to Wang Xiaomei, “Alright, I understand. Go back and focus on the examination. I’ll deal with this matter!”

Wang Xiaomei was unwilling. “Teacher, they cheated in the examination. It is unfair to us. They must be punished. Their examination results cannot be counted!”

As she spoke, she even said to the other students, “Classmates, we relied on our own abilities to achieve our grades. Are you willing to let a cheater surpass you?”

The other students looked at Xie Chaochao and Fatty with dissatisfaction.

The teacher did not want this incident to delay the examination. She said loudly, “Don’t worry, cheating is absolutely not allowed in the examination. This kind of behavior is extremely bad. We will deal with it seriously! I will definitely give everyone an explanation! You guys take the examination properly now, don’t think about things that have nothing to do with the examination!”

After that, the teacher looked at Xie Chaochao and Fatty and said sternly, “Come out with me to see your form teacher.”

Fatty’s eyes were filled with guilt and anxiety. If the form teacher were to know about this, she would definitely tell their parents. When he went back, he would definitely be beaten up by his father. There was also Xie Chaochao. If her results were to be invalidated because of this, he would have committed a huge offense!

He whispered, “Sister Chaochao, I’ve let you down!”

Xie Chaochao ignored him and said to the invigilator, “Teacher, we didn’t cheat!”

Wang Xiaomei shouted, “The evidence has been found, you still want to deny it?” “Teacher, Xie Chaochao is not remorseful. We can’t let her off like this!”

Xie Chaochao glared at Wang Xiaomei and asked coldly, “It’s just a paper ball. What makes you think we were passing the answers around?”

“We are having an examination right now. What else can you do besides passing the answers around?”

“What if you’re making a false accusation?”

“Impossible!”

Wang Xiaomei denied it without hesitation. “If I had falsely accused you, I will bark like a dog!”

Xie Chaochao continued, “You wasted the time we could have spent doing the questions. What about that?”

“If you cheat, your results will be invalidated. So what if you had completed the test? Wouldn’t there still be no results in the end?”

“It’s different! I could have ranked first in the cohort, but because of the delay you caused, I can no longer get first place in the cohort. How are you going to make up for this loss?” Wang Xiaomei sneered. “First place in the cohort? Are you daydreaming? Are you capable of that? If you can rank first in the cohort, I will eat this paper!”

Xie Chaochao smiled. “Don’t forget what you just said!”

She then looked at the teacher and said, “Teacher, this paper ball can prove that we didn’t cheat. I hope that you can check it as soon as possible so that we can continue doing the paper!”

The teacher was very confused, but seeing how certain Xie Chaochao was, she got curious about the contents of the paper ball.

Wang Xiaomei thought that Xie Chaochao was just trying her luck. Once the teacher has seen the answers on the paper, Xie Chaochao would not be able to defend herself anymore. This time, Xie Chaochao would be embarrassed!
