Chapter 15: Cheating? Full Marks!

In the office.
Qin Yiyi’s expression was indifferent. “May I know why Teacher Yang called me over?”
“If there’s nothing, I’ll be going back first.”
A good student shouldn’t waste time!
“Look at her, look at her attitude.”
Teacher Yang slammed the table angrily. “Teacher Zhou, we can’t do as you say. I don’t care who it is, as long as they dare to cheat in my class, they must be severely punished. Otherwise, the morals of the second year’s classes will be ruined by her!”
“In the future, every student will copy her and think of ways to cheat. Then what’s the point of us giving these tests?”
“I suggest that we take them seriously.”
Teacher Zhou, the homeroom teacher, frowned. “Teacher Yang, this matter hasn’t been settled yet. It’s not good for you to say that, right?”
“What’s not settled yet? Don’t I know how Qin Yiyi usually does?”
Teacher Yang’s voice was filled with contempt, as if he didn’t see Qin Yiyi standing at the side of the office. “Yang Liu in our class is the first in physics in the entire second year of high school. She has never fallen behind in third place. This time, Qin Yiyi actually got third place. In the past, she was always at the bottom of the rankings. If she didn’t copy the answers this time, could she have solved them herself?”
Teacher Zhou rubbed the space between his eyebrows, but when he raised his eyes, he was slightly stunned.
The girl standing in front of him had cold eyebrows and stood straight. Her almond-shaped eyes were slightly raised, revealing a bit of unruliness and carelessness.
Even the expression on her face was calm and indifferent.
It was as if the plagiarist they were talking about was not her!
This made Teacher Zhou have a strange feeling welling up in his heart. Was this person really Qin Yiyi, whom he had taught for more than half a year?
After pondering for a moment, he was thinking of how to tactfully bring up this matter with Qin Yiyi.
Just as he was about to let her give a proper explanation...
The girl’s soft and cold voice, which was like the collision of pearls and jade, rang out calmly. “This matter is very simple. Since Teacher Yang suspects that there is a problem with my score, why don’t we call that student named Liu over to take the test again? Won’t it be clear then?”
She paused for a moment, and her sharp and knife-like gaze swept across Teacher Yang. It was as if she was looking at something, but at the same time, it was as if she was looking at nothing. “However, as a teacher, Teacher Yang should know how to speak with facts and convince people with reason. Now that you have no evidence and no witnesses to prove that my results are fake, if my results are better than hers again, will Teacher Yang still accuse me of cheating right under your nose?”
“What nonsense are you talking about? As long as you dare to take the test again, I will naturally admit your results.”
“If your results are true, what are you afraid of?”
Teacher Yang seemed to be afraid that Qin Yiyi would not agree. He deliberately provoked her. “If you can do well in the retake, I will naturally admit your results. If you don’t dare, then it will definitely be considered plagiarism and cheating.”
Qin Yiyi shrugged when she heard these words. Her almond-shaped eyes turned slightly as she laughed softly.
“Actually, I really don’t care about whether you recognize me or not. It’s just that I hate it when people suspect me the most...”
After a short pause, she nodded. “The exam is fine, but why don’t we play a big game? Didn’t you say that Yang Liu’s grades have always been better than mine? How about this, let her come and take the exam with me. If she does better than me, I’ll admit that I cheated and accept any punishment from the school.”
“Okay, I’ll agree on behalf of Yang Liu!”
Yang Liu was his biological niece.
As Yang Liu’s form teacher and a physics teacher, he had his eyes on her physics education.
How could she be bad?!
Not to mention one Qin Yiyi, even two Qin Yiyis wouldn’t be able to surpass Yang Liu under normal circumstances!
Qin Yiyi smiled playfully. “Teacher Yang, don’t agree so quickly. At least listen to my requirements after I win, right?”
“No matter what you say, I’ll agree.”
‘In any case, you can’t win at all!’
“If I win, then I’ll have to trouble Teacher Yang to write a deep reflection, and then the entire school’s teacher-student meeting will hear the reflection. How about it?”
Teacher Yang’s face turned green when he heard that, but in the next moment, he nodded angrily.
“I agree!”
He didn’t believe that this Qin Yiyi could win against his niece, who had both good grades and good character!
Before Teacher Zhou could chime in from the side, the two of them had already decided on this matter.
Teacher Zhou, “...” He was the form teacher!
Qin Yiyi smiled nonchalantly. “Teacher Zhou, could I trouble you to bring two sets of fresh physics test papers? Also, call that Yang-something classmate over now. If we start early, it’ll be over soon.” She didn’t have time to waste with this so-called Teacher Yang!
“Ah, that’s fine then. I’ll call someone to send them over.”
At the same time, he specially made a call to get someone to call Yang Liu over. He even stopped Teacher Yang.
“This matter was brought up by you. Yang Liu is in your class. I have to protect my own student, so the two of us should stay here and not move.”
‘Just wait.’
Teacher Yang was angry, but he didn’t say anything. He just sneered.
“Let’s wait and see!”
In less than ten minutes, the test paper and Yang Liu appeared in the office almost at the same time.
Teacher Yang looked at his niece and directly opened his mouth. “I suspect that Qin Yiyi’s physics results are from cheating. It’s impossible for her to exceed your exam results. Now, I’ll give the two of you a chance to retake the exam. Yang Liu, as the representative of the physics class, you can’t easily lose to anyone. This time, be more careful in the exam. If the results are different, I’ll recommend the principal to give you the correct ranking.”
What was the correct ranking?
Wasn’t it just that Qin Yiyi suppressed her in rankings and some said that Qin Yiyi’s results were obtained through improper methods?
Teacher Zhou frowned and wanted to say something, but he was interrupted by Qin Yiyi.
“Teacher Zhou, can we begin?”
“Alright, then let’s talk about the exam questions first. Student Yang Liu, are you sure you really agree to retake the exam?”
Teacher Zhou asked in a casual manner. Yang Liu bit her lower lip and looked at Teacher Yang before nodding her head hesitantly.
“I’ll listen to Teacher Yang...”
“This is the retake exam paper. It was for last year’s second year of high school. I’ve seen the type of questions and the content. It’s just right. Teacher Yang and I will look at the two of you to answer the questions. The time is one hour. Let’s start now.”
Teacher Zhou distributed the exam paper to the two of them. Then, he and Teacher Yang each pulled a chair and sat not far away to keep an eye on them.
Qin Yiyi rested her chin on one hand and looked at the questions for a while before starting to write.
At this time, on the other side, Yang Liu had already solved a few questions.
Teacher Yang looked at Qin Yiyi proudly. ‘This time, let’s see how you can play tricks again!’
Forty minutes later.
Qin Yiyi put down the pen and handed the paper to Teacher Zhou.
At this moment, Yang Liu was still writing with her head lowered. She had only written about two-thirds of the test paper.
Teacher Yang was afraid that Qin Yiyi would go back on her words. “I’ll leave after Yang Liu hands in the test paper. I’ll grade it together with Teacher Zhou later.”
“Teacher Zhou, why don’t you call Teacher Cheng over?”
Teacher Cheng also taught physics.
However, he taught third-year classes.
Teacher Zhou really nodded when he heard that. “Alright, I’ll call him over right now.”
Yang Liu handed in her test paper at the 59-minute mark.
She looked nervous. “I- I finished writing it...”
“Bring it over for me to take a look.”
After reading ten lines at a glance, Teacher Yang’s face was full of smiles. “Teacher Zhou, Yang Liu’s score has reached 95 points. It’s already very good that she managed to achieve such a score in such a hurry. Sigh, Teacher Cheng, what’s Qin Yiyi’s score? Did she pass?” He looked as if he was gloating over someone’s misfortune; he knew that girl would definitely reveal her true form!
Teacher Cheng looked at the test paper in his hand once again. He raised his head and looked at him with a meaningful expression.
“Qin Yiyi has a perfect score.”
