48 Fanning the Flames

“You guys don’t know yet, right? I was in the same examination hall as her.” The boy sitting in the back row of Shi Man during the exam said mysteriously, “At that time, Teacher Hu Jing said that Shi Man cheated during the exam!”

“Ah? Really? No wonder her results are so good!” The person who had praised Shi Jing just now had already treated her as the top student in her class. When he heard this heavy news, he immediately asked maliciously, “Won’t Shi Man be detained by the teacher?”

“I see.” The students of Class S looked at one another and mocked Shi Man before secretly retreating from the crowd to verify this matter with their teacher.

In the office, Hu Jing was arguing with Director Zou.

“Dean, I told you about the application for surveillance footage previously. Have you forgotten? Now that Shi Man actually surpassed my students, she must have cheated! We can’t tolerate such behavior of breaking the examination discipline!”

“Calm down first, Teacher Hu. I can understand your feelings.” Director Zou patiently advised, “I’ve already investigated the surveillance cameras. The person who cheated was not Shi Man.”

“Who else could it be? Director Zou, you can’t protect her! And that Shi Jing is actually ranked at the top of the cohort. The two of them must have cheated together!”

The more Hu Jing thought about it, the angrier she became. At this moment, the two children in the family were really worrisome. One by one, they braced themselves and insisted on squeezing into Class S. They didn’t even buy a mirror to look at themselves. Were they worthy?

“Teacher Hu, you have to have evidence in everything.” Director Zou sighed and stood up to look at the students gathered in front of the rankings outside the window. He said calmly, “Call Shi Man and Shi Jing over.”

Hu Jing gritted her teeth and nodded. She snorted and left the office.

At the entrance of the teaching building, the crowd was still discussing how Shi Man had been caught cheating by the teacher. Many students in the examination hall had heard Hu Jing’s words that day and felt indignant that the school was protecting Shi Man.

Shi Jing looked coldly at the crowd gathered to deal with Shi Man. From the corner of her eye, she saw a figure. The cold smile on her face quickly turned into pity. “Please forgive my sister. She must have taken things too hard for a moment. Why don’t we give her a chance and not let the school expel her?”

“Impossible! We have to ask the school to expel Shi Man today. Cassel Academy can’t tolerate such an embarrassing student!”

The crowd was furious. Seeing that the atmosphere was about right, Shi Jing exclaimed and pointed in the direction of the teaching staircase. “Look, isn’t that Teacher Hu Jing? Could she be here to take Shi Man away?”

When the students heard that Hu Jing was here, they immediately swarmed up and surrounded her, asking how the school would deal with Shi Man.

The students’ emotions had already been completely stoked. They wished they could pull Shi Man out and whip her a few times to vent their hatred.

They did not like people like Shi Man entering Cassel Academy, not to mention that she had now done such a thing.

Hu Jing only felt that there were countless flies buzzing in her ears. She scolded angrily, “Shut up! Do you still have any regard for discipline? Isn’t it time for self-study? Hurry up and go back to studying!”

“Teacher.” Shi Jing couldn’t wait for her classmates to witness Shi Man embarrassing herself in public. Naturally, she didn’t want her classmates to disperse because of her teacher’s scolding. “Are you here to look for Shi Man? Don’t blame the students for delaying their studies. They’re so excited because they value academic results. Shi Man’s cheating concerns everyone. Teacher, please deal with this matter publicly.”

Although Shi Jing did not have direct evidence to prove that Shi Man had cheated, she felt that it must be abnormal for Shi Man to have such results. Moreover, didn’t Hu Jing say that Shi Man had cheated in the examination hall?

Shi Jing thought that this matter was almost certain. She only wanted Shi Man to embarrass herself in public and have a bad reputation. In the end, she would have no choice but to drop out of Cassel Academy.

This way, she would be the only daughter of the Shi family who could study here!

Hu Jing took a step closer and sized Shi Jing up with a critical expression. In her eyes, Shi Jing was no different from Shi Man. However, from her words just now, she seemed to want to punish Shi Man immediately.

This was really interesting.

“That’s right, Teacher. Let us follow you and take a look. We can’t let Shi Man off easily.” Song Zhi had always hated Shi Man for humiliating her in front of Fang Han in the mall last time. This time, Shi Man gave her something to use against her. How could she not grasp it well?

In her eyes, she could put aside the fact that Shi Jing had clinched third place for the time being. After all, what she had just said was completely considered from the perspective of her classmates.

However, Shi Man was different. She was still unwilling to show her face even now. Even the entire Class F was not present. If that wasn’t guilt, what else could it be?
