Ye Xiao glanced at the invigilator's hand that had grabbed his own, then looked around at the other students present. At this moment, all the examinees in the room were looking at Ye Xiao and the invigilator, while the invigilator sitting at the back also walked towards the front!
"If you still want to continue being a carefree teacher at Minghai Academy," Ye Xiao's voice was unexpectedly calm, "then you'd better apologize to me right now!"
The invigilator burst into loud laughter upon hearing Ye Xiao's words. He had never seen such an arrogant student before. At least, he had not until this point!
Just then, the other invigilator came over, looked at his colleague who was flushed with rage, and said, "Don't stoop to the level of a student."
"You don't understand a damn thing, he actually dared to curse at me!" the invigilator retorted angrily, while trying to pull Ye Xiao outside. However, after pulling a couple of times, he discovered that Ye Xiao was as immovable as if he had been fixed to the ground, not budging an inch!
"Wow, you've got quite a bit of strength!" At this moment, the invigilator was really impulsive and not thinking straight, shouting loudly when he couldn't move Ye Xiao!
"Teacher, although Brother Xiao arrived late, you shouldn't deprive him of his right to take the exam," Tang Xuewen stood up from where he was sitting to the side and said to the invigilator who was pulling on Ye Xiao.
The invigilator, already pissed that he could not move Ye Xiao, became even more infuriated when he heard a student speaking up for Ye Xiao.
"Do you still want to take the exam? If you don't want to, then get out. Do I have to report everything I do to you? Don't I know whether he's eligible to take the exam or not? Such a student is not welcome at Minghai Academy!" the invigilator shouted at Tang Xuewen.
Tang Xuewen responded with a wry smile upon hearing the invigilator's words, then sat back down.
Who was Ye Xiao? Everyone in the class taking the exam knew. Apart from Tang Xuewen, nobody else had spoken up yet. At this moment, nobody was laughing at Ye Xiao, almost everyone was waiting to see the so-called invigilator make a fool of himself.
Ye Xiao looked at the invigilator and suddenly chuckled.
His laughter startled the invigilator, who immediately looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at how stupid you are. You're here pulling and tugging on me, and students might take the opportunity to cheat. Plus, if you truly believe that I am a student who should not be at Minghai Academy, there's actually a very simple solution," Ye Xiao said. "Just notify the principal to come over. Otherwise, I'm not leaving, and you have no choice but to let me go!"
After hearing Ye Xiao's words, the invigilator suddenly thought he might have a point. Reflecting inwardly, he figured that with Yao Zhengming's strict reputation, the principal would surely expel such a disrespectful student, which would save his own face, wouldn't it?
Thinking this through, the invigilator laughed out loud, looked at Ye Xiao, and deliberately said, "Yes, I am indeed stupid. I hadn't planned on pursuing the matter, but you've just reminded me. Alright, I'll go find Principal Yao right now. Today, I will see you expelled from Minghai Academy for good. If you won't leave, I will, and we'll see whether the school wants a bad student like you or a good teacher like me!"
A good teacher??
When the invigilator finished his statement, almost all the students showed a smile on their faces. Clearly, everyone found the invigilator at that moment quite adorable.
Without waiting for anyone to stop him, the angry invigilator with whom Ye Xiao had clashed walked straight out of the classroom.
Ye Xiao then looked at the other invigilator, who seemed somewhat overly nice, and smilingly said, "Now, may I take the exam? After all, I am still a student at Minghai Academy until Principal Yao comes to expel me."
The invigilator remaining in the classroom stared at Ye Xiao for a full ten seconds, thinking that many students at Minghai Academy come from influential backgrounds. Although he did not recognize this young man, his demeanor suggested he was no ordinary person. With the other invigilator going to fetch the principal, who knew who would stay and who would leave? Thus, the invigilator wisely said to Ye Xiao with feigned seriousness, "Go ahead and start your exam. We will deal with it when the principal arrives."
Ye Xiao immediately replied, smiling, "Thank you very much!"
Afterward, Ye Xiao swiftly made his way to his desk. There was a test paper on top, and he noticed that at least ten pairs of eyes were looking at him at that moment.
Ye Xiao raised his head and immediately locked eyes with Ling Shuya. When she saw Ye Xiao looking at her, Ling Shuya playfully stuck out her tongue at him and then turned her head back to continue working on her test paper.
Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile slightly. That girl really had many adorable traits!
After sitting down, Ye Xiao quickly calmed his mind, picked up the pen on the table, and swiftly wrote his name on the test paper. The subject was foreign language, something Ye Xiao was quite familiar with, so he began to answer the questions at a rapid pace.
Ye Xiao was naturally quick with his hands, and with the test being in letters of the alphabet, he wrote very quickly.
Meanwhile!
In the principal's office at the top of Minghai Academy's administration building!
"Nothing else is going on today, right?" Yao Zhengming sat in his chair, holding a cigarette with one hand while smiling and speaking cheerfully to the school leaders in the office!
At that moment, the school leaders immediately served up timely sycophantic compliments, barely stopping short of proclaiming Yao Zhengming's brilliant and heroic leadership.
However, as the school leaders chatted and laughed, smoking and sipping tea, reveling in this rare tranquility, the door to the principal's office was suddenly knocked on!
The previously jovial school leaders were struck with surprise upon hearing the knock at the door. Yao Zhengming promptly said in a stern voice, "Come in!"
The office door was pushed open, and the invigilator from before walked in!
"Ma Wei, weren't you proctoring exams? What brings you here?" As the invigilator entered, one of the school leaders addressed him immediately!
Ma Wei had thought it would just be the principal in the office. But now, seeing a room full of leaders, he was initially intimidated. However, upon further thought, he realized that with so many leaders there, the student would surely be doomed!
Ma Wei promptly said, "A student came in late to the exam, and I reprimanded him. He actually cursed at me, truly lacking any manners, and he said even if Principal Yao himself came over, he wouldn't dare to expel him. I couldn't stand it, so I came here to ask what should be done?"
"What did he say? Even Principal Yao wouldn't dare to expel him?" A chubby leader immediately slammed his hand on the table and angrily said, "What kind of student is this? Does he really think he's someone important? This student must be dealt with!"
Ma Wei's dramatic account immediately infuriated the other teachers, and of course, it was all a show; after all, Yao Zhengming was seated in the place of honor. All the school leaders wanted to ingratiate themselves with Yao Zhengming, so when there was talk disparaging Principal Yao, they immediately united in criticizing the student!
"Enough!" Yao Zhengming suddenly spoke in a deep voice!
Hearing Principal Yao speak, all the teachers immediately fell silent, turning their gazes toward him!
Yao Zhengming, a smart man, stared intently at Ma Wei and asked, "Did the student really say that?"
"Yes!" Ma Wei, observing the serious look in Yao Zhengming's eyes, felt a chill in his heart. But since the words had been spoken, he didn't dare to backtrack!
Yao Zhengming remarked, "These days, students are becoming bolder with age and have no respect for teachers. It seems this student must be disciplined; it's necessary to make an example to warn others."
"Principal Yao, why don't we go take a look? I would like to see for myself just how arrogant this student is, to dare to be so disrespectful!" one leader proposed to Yao Zhengming!
Hearing this leader's suggestion, Yao Zhengming thought it seemed reasonable and said, "Fine, let's follow Teacher Ma Wei there. Which class is the student from?"
Ma Wei immediately responded, "I'm not sure exactly which class the student is from, but the exam is taking place in Class One!"
"Class One?" Upon hearing Ma Wei's words, Yao Zhengming's brow slightly furrowed; he suddenly had an ominous feeling, though he couldn't explain why!
Eventually, persuaded by Ma Wei and several school leaders, Yao Zhengming joined them on their way to Class One!
By the time Ma Wei arrived at the principal's office, briefed about the situation with Ye Xiao, and discussed it with the other leaders, Yao Zhengming and his group didn't rush, so it took about twenty minutes to reach Class One's classroom!
Ma Wei was the first to enter the classroom, and as Yao Zhengming entered, the students, recognizing the principal of Minghai Academy, turned their attention to him!
By now, all the students understood that Ma Wei had genuinely gone to fetch the principal and had indeed brought him and several school leaders!
Though many of the students came from influential backgrounds, knowing Minghai Academy was no ordinary school, they all fell silent at the sight of the principal!
"Stand up for me now!" Once inside the classroom, an arrogant Ma Wei walked straight up to Ye Xiao's desk. Ye Xiao, of course, noticed Ma Wei approaching with Principal Yao and several school leaders, but he continued to look down, quickly writing his answers.
At that moment, Ma Wei shouted right next to Ye Xiao!
Ye Xiao frowned slightly and replied, "Let me finish this problem."
"Now you must stand up for me!" Ma Wei, believing the principal had personally been called over, acted with bravado, snatched the pen from Ye Xiao's hand and demanded coldly, "Are you deaf?"
With his pen taken away, a rich smile slowly crept onto Ye Xiao's face.
