165 165 Retake the exam
After dealing with the two, the principal looked at Tan Rou and his attitude became much gentler. He asked with a smile, “I will definitely punish the student who framed you according to the school’s rules. During next week’s regular meeting, I will also clarify your innocence in front of the whole school. Other than that, do you have any other requests?”
Director Wang would definitely be expelled, but in the end, it was the school’s fault for not using the right people. It had caused Tan Rou injustice and trouble. The principal was willing to compensate her appropriately. Moreover, the principal was very interested in a very special student like Tan Rou. This child was full of ideas and always brought people surprises.
Sure enough, Tan Rou’s eyes lit up, and she replied cheekily and obediently, “Sir, I would like to retake the exam just now. I didn’t get to check it earlier and I don’t want to hand it in.”
Tan Rou’s paper had actually followed her calculations and scored an average score. It didn’t matter if it was handed in.
But after this incident, Tan Rou changed her mind.
Tan Jing didn’t know how good she was in her studies. In her mind, Tan Rou should have been a bad student.
Tan Rou originally thought that Tan Jing would make a big deal out of her grades, belittle her, and establish her own image of a top student.
Therefore, Tan Rou only wanted her scores to be slightly above Tan Jing’s so that Tan Jing would never be able to score higher than her.
However, after this happened, Tan Rou found that Tan Jing’s heart was much more ruthless than she had imagined. Perhaps Tan Jing was really scared of her. The difference in their grades, the comparison between a top student and a bad student, could no longer satisfy Tan Jing. Tan Jing even wanted to kill two birds with one stone. She wanted to tarnish Tan Rou’s character through cheating and drive her out of school.
Since that was the case, she couldn’t be blamed for being ostentatious. Didn’t Tan Jing think that she was a slacker and wanted to accuse her of cheating?
Then, she would have to be the top student in the school and crush Tan Jing’s stupid schemes with absolute strength. This would definitely make Tan Jing doubt her life, right? It was interesting just thinking about it.
The principal was a little surprised to hear Tan Rou’s request. He didn’t expect Tan Rou to ask for a retake. After all, it was almost time to hand in the paper when the incident happened. In the surveillance video, the principal also vaguely saw that there were still many blank pages on Tan Rou’s paper. If she didn’t know how to do it, why would she ask for a retake of the exam?
However, since Tan Rou had requested it, it wasn’t a difficult thing to do. The principal nodded and agreed.
In terms of grades, even one answer was worth a lot. Tan Rou’s request showed that she took the exam seriously and didn’t want to be affected by others. Even if she didn’t know how to take the exam, she would retake it.
The principal had always asked the students to take every exam seriously which was why he naturally appreciated Tan Rou’s request and readily agreed. “You can take the next exam as usual but you can have a retake of this paper. We’ll find a teacher to supervise you and we’ll enter your second exam results on the computer!”
Tan Rou smiled sweetly, “Thank you, Sir!”
The principal nodded his head in satisfaction. “You’re good at coding which means that you’re very smart. Of course, even if you’re good at something else, you still have to put this energy into your studies!” Thinking of the blank papers in the surveillance camera, the principal felt that it was a pity. If only Tan Rou could do better in her studies.
Tan Rou’s smile grew wider. “Don’t worry, I will definitely get a good grade. Thank you for giving me the chance to speak for myself. You’re a good man!”
The principal heard Tan Rou praise him with a serious face. She was a smart girl but her tone was as mature as an old leader. He couldn’t help but laugh. “Thank you for your recognition. I look forward to your good results as well!”
Tan Rou politely bowed and walked out of the principal’s office.
As soon as Tan Rou came out, she was surrounded by the students at the door. Most of the students had already left in advance to report today’s breaking news to others; while the rest were waiting at the gate, looking at Tan Rou with admiration and passion.
Tan Rou’s series of actions today had won their impressions and even their hearts.
Everyone regarded Tan Rou as a hero who had driven away Wang Li and a pioneer who dared to resist against things that were injustice. They felt that she was simply too handsome!
