154 154 Don’t You dare?
Tan Rou looked coldly at Director Wang’s half-serious expression and sneered. What was this? After failing to educate her, he turned it into a threat. He wanted her to back off?
She did not expect a school’s head of faculty to be so biased. She did not know if this was because of the influence of the Tan family or if Tan Jing had even bribed the Director to harm her.
Tan Rou’s expression turned cold. She wasn’t frightened by director Wang’s words. She wanted to see how Director Wang would force this crime on her!
“I have done nothing wrong,” she said firmly. “I won’t admit it. Don’t waste your time.”
Director Wang didn’t expect Tan Rou to be so stubborn and unmoved by force or persuasion.
He slammed the teacup in his hand on the table and said sternly, “You’re just a young woman. You don’t have many skills, but you have a big temper! The teachers are all concerned about you! They love you, and we don’t want you to bear the punishment for the rest of your life! If you obediently write a self-reflection and admit your mistakes, I will still be willing to give you another chance!
Madam Li had also noticed something and felt that Director Wang’s attitude was strange.
If Tan Rou wanted to look at the surveillance footage, let her do it. It was fine if she wanted to make a scene in front of the principal, but Director Wang was hiding something. He kept pushing it back and forth as if he wanted to quickly convict Tan Rou of her mistakes and end the matter.
Madam Li was just about to say something when Director Wang gave her a meaningful look. Madam Li felt that there might be something fishy about this matter, but it was obvious that what happened next was out of her control.
Director Wang naturally had his own reasons for doing so. After being in the workplace for many years, Madam Li knew that some matters could not be taken seriously. Thus, she shut her mouth and stood to the side without saying a word.
In any case, it has been confirmed that Tan Rou has cheated, and there was no need for any investigations.
Many students had gathered outside the office. They stuck their heads against the wall and listened to the conversation inside.
Tan Rou looked coldly at Director Wang and noticed the eye contact between him and Madam Li. She found it a joke.
At first, she thought that Tan Jing’s helper was only Wei Ling, but she did not expect that even the teachers and director of the school were included in Tan Jing’s plan. Madam Li was probably arrogant, but Director Wang was a hypocrite.
Tan Rou looked at Director Wang with a faint smile, which was hard to grasp.
“Director Wang, you have to be fair, ” she said sarcastically. “Otherwise, it’s inevitable that people will suspect that you’re trying to achieve some unspeakable purpose by sentencing me in such a hurry.”
For some reason, Director Wang felt a little guilty when Tan Rou looked at him with such an aggressive gaze.
This girl might be young, but she had a strong aura. Even a sly and experienced person like Director Wang was stunned for a moment.
However, after hearing Tan Rou’s words, he was hit where it hurt most. He immediately became angry from embarrassment and looked at Tan Rou with a tough attitude as he screamed, “Nonsense! What purpose could I have? You! If you don’t do as I’ve told you, your grades will be voided! Considering the severity of your cheating and bad attitude, you don’t have to sit for the other papers. Go back and call your parents to the school. They will be informed of the punishment. You can leave now!”
The students outside the office were in an uproar. Her results were directly made invalid?! How embarrassing would it be to have her parents come to school?!
Director Wang was infuriated by Tan Rou’s words. He didn’t look happy and shouted from the office, “Have you all finished your revision? What are you doing outside my office?!”
The students were shocked. They didn’t dare to challenge the Director’s authority at this time and scattered. However, some still wanted to have fun and refused to leave.
Tan Rou sneered.
Tan Jing framed her for no reason; how could she be afraid of Tan Jing? If she had alarmed her family over such a childish matter, she would have lived her life in vain.
Tan Rou’s eyes were sharp and full of indifference and contempt. She looked at Director Wang. “I don’t want to waste my breath on you anymore. Since you said you have no ulterior motives, I’m sure you don’t feel guilty. Then let’s go to the principal and talk about it.”
Director Wang frowned. “I’ve already said that the principal doesn’t have the time to deal with a small matter like yours. Besides, it’s not your place to argue with me!”
Tan Rou narrowed her eyes and smiled. “You’re afraid to do so?!”
As soon as she said this, the students outside the door all covered their mouths in excitement. Tan Rou was so brave! She’s challenging Baldy Wang in a 1v1!
Tan Rou stood alone in front of a teacher who was taller and stronger than her. The students outside were also waiting to watch the show.
However, even though Tan Rou looked isolated and should have been the weaker party, she still exuded a sense of pride as if she could hold the fort by herself. Strong self-confidence and aura flowed out of her.
