Chapter 189 Xia Xiaoluo was Caught Cheating
At Christmas Eve, Xia Xiaoluo got up early in the morning, she finished knitting the sweater last night. Ling Tianyi said that he would come back on Christmas Eve, but now she couldn’t help feeling sad when she saw the empty room.
However, today she had something more important than Ling Tianyi’s birthday and Christmas Eve to do. They would have the CET-4 exam twice every year, so she must go to school earlier because her Admission Ticket was still in Luo Xixi’s hands. Otherwise she could not get her Admission Ticket before Luo Xixi entered the examination room. Ling Tianyi would probably scold her if she missed the examination.
Xia Xiaoluo did not need to worry about the traffic because Ling Tianyi arranged a driver for her before he left.
Xia Xiaoluo arrived on the third floor of the No. 1 Teaching Building earlier than Luo Xixi, so she stayed in the restroom to have some milk and bread. She didn’t have breakfast because she was in a hurry this morning.
“Xixi, you are finally here!” Xia Xiaoluo saw Luo Xixi and rushed to her. They went backhand in hand in the restroom.
“Here you are! Your Admission Ticket.” Luo Xixi gave the Admission Ticket to Xiao Xiaoluo. “Xiaoluo, we are roommates, just listen to me carefully!”
“All right! I will listen to you carefully!” Xia Xiaoluo laughed, making a face to Luo Xixi.
“Only one thing, don’t cheat in the exam. I know your English is not good, but you can take the CET-4 exam when you are in university. You have many chances. But you must not cheat in this exam, otherwise you will be expelled from school.” Luo Xixi said.
“All right, I know. You see, I come without anything except this small bag. I can’t put anything in it even I wanted to!” Xia Xiaoluo said, and she mentally prepared for failing the exam. In fact, she thought about it these days. Ling Tianyi would kill her if she cheated in the exam.
“Right! If you are expelled from school, Lv Errou would share the room with me, and then I will be in trouble.” Luo Xixi signed.
“Don’t worry, I won’t give her any chance!” Xia Xiaoluo patted Luo Xixi’s shoulders to comfort her!
Lv Errou was watching Xia Xiaoluo and Luo Xixi not far away. When she saw the two girls sit together, she got irritated, clutching her fists. “Xia Xiaoluo, you will be caught cheating in the exam even though you don’t want to cheat in the exam”.
“It was time to enter the examination room”, Xia Xiaoluo said to Luo Xixi, “Xixi, I don’t expect to pass the exam, but it is important for me to take the exam. You studied hard, so come on. I wish you good luck!”
“Xiaoluo, good luck! Maybe you can pass the exam!” Luo Xixi said the words to Xia Xiaoluo’s preference.
“Come on!” They clapped hands and then entered their classrooms respectively.
“Wow! What a coincidence!” Xia Xiaoluo saw Lv Errou sit in front of her. As the old saying, one could not avoid his enemies, but Lv Errou almost killed her.
“Xiaoluo, come on!” Lv Errou smiled evilly, pretending nothing happened.
The invigilator came in. Xia Xiaoluo did not want to talk to Lv Errou, and she just wanted to finish the exam quickly.
Xia Xiaoluo was poor at English. She did not know the answer, and she couldn’t hand in the examination paper ahead of time. Lv Errou threw a spitball to her unexpectedly when she was writing randomly. When Xia Xiaoluo was wondering what happened, the invigilator came to her.
Xia Xiaoluo wanted to hide the spitball instinctively. After all, with a spitball on the table during examination, she could not get rid of the suspicion of cheating.
“Take it out!” The invigilator was a middle-aged woman at her forties, with a pair of black-framed glasses. she looked strict.
Xiao Xiaoluo stopped, and the invigilator grabbed the spitball directly in her hands. After seeing it, she said, “Cheat in the exam, and come with me!”
“Teacher, I didn’t do that! She threw it to me, I…” Xia Xiaoluo became nervous. She thought that she could not explain it.
“Stop talking nonsense, don’t affect the others in exam. Go!” The invigilator pulled Xia Xiaoluo out of the examination room, and passed her to the inspector. Meanwhile, she took Lv Errou out there either. Both of the students who passed answers to each other were involved in.
“Teacher, I’m innocent! I was writing my answer sheet myself, but she threw a spitball to me unexpectedly. I don’t know what it is!” Xia Xiaoluo complained to the inspector.
“Teacher, I’m the victim. She threatened me before the exam. I studied in international schools from primary school to high school. I was taught in English there. But Xia Xiaoluo didn’t do well in study. She asked me to pass her the answers. I didn’t agree with her at the beginning, but I was beaten by her. She was violent. She said I was a lesbian, threatening me that she would tell everyone and my parents if I didn’t pass the answer to her. I had no choice. I don’t want to be the hot issue among my classmates and make my family worry about me.” Lv Errou cried suddenly.
“Lv Errou, you are lying! When did I beat you, and when did I force you to pass me the answer? You are talking nonsense.” Xia Xiaoluo said angrily. She knew she was framed by Lv Errou, and she could not tell the truth.
“You have to admit it, the CET-4 exam is the national examination. If you didn’t threaten me, I dared not to cheat in the examination even I am bold! What’s more, my English is not bad, I can pass the exam by myself, and I don’t need to cheat in the exam.” Lv Errou finished her words, pretending to cry again.
Xia Xiaoluo still wanted to argue with her, but the headmaster and the dean came. After all, this was the national examination, they could not deal with it just like in the final exams if any student was caught.
Ling Tianyi was the biggest shareholder of the school, and the headmaster knew that Ling Tianyi always protected Xia Xiaoluo. When he saw that one of the students was Xia Xiaoluo, he felt headache. If Xiao Xiaoluo was only protected by Ling Tianyi, he could suppress it easily. However, Ling Desheng disliked her, now he was in a dilemma. He would offend Ling Tianyi if he punished Xia Xiaoluo strictly. But he would offend Ling Tianyi’s father if he did not punish Xia Xiaoluo. If the students spoke it out everywhere, it would be more difficult for him to deal with it.
Even Xia Xiaoluo and Lv Errou were arguing in front of him, the headmaster didn’t want to know who was wrong. He was thinking about how to deal with it.
The CET-4 exam was over, and the invigilator also came to explain the situation. Ling Tianyi arrived at Dwichen’s College at 10 a.m. He was waiting for Xia Xiaoluo outside the school gate. He became impatient when he saw many students come out, but Xia Xiaoluo did not show up. Today was not only the Christmas Eve, but also his birthday. How could she be so careless, not coming out earlier after examination. Her mobile phone was powered off.
Ling Tianyi knew it when he was on his business trip. He knew that Xia Xiaoluo has skipped class these days, but she stayed at home. He was happy at first, but after seeing all the students come out and leave. The examination was over for nearly half an hour, then he became angrier and angrier.
Ling Tianyi was calling Xia Xiaoluo all the time. At the same time, the headmaster was trying to call Ling Tianyi, but the line was busy all the time.
Finally, the headmaster managed to call Ling Tianyi.
“Headmaster, you called me at this time, is there anything wrong with Xia Xiaoluo?” Ling Tianyi asked directly.
“Yes, Manager Ling, please take it easy, we are trying to deal with it!” The headmaster called Ling Tianyi in a corner secretly, a place which could not be heard. Otherwise, it would affect his reputation as a headmaster.
“What’s wrong with Xiaoluo?” Ling Tianyi became uneasy at once. He knew that something happened to Xia Xiaoluo because she hasn’t come out yet.
“Manger Ling, Xia Xiaoluo cheated in the CET-4 national exam, and she was caught by the invigilator on the spot. She was still in the Examination Affairs Management Office now. It is not an ordinary thing, because national examination is not the ordinary final exam. It is the National Unified Examination.” The headmaster said.
Hearing the headmaster’s words, Ling Tianyi became extremely irritated. It was really shameful, how could Xia Xiaoluo do this. He was going mad. Was it the present she prepared for him —cheating in the examination and letting himself feel shameful.
Ling Tianyi made herself calm down, but he was still angry。 He had to deal with it. “Headmaster, I’m sorry for troubling you. Where are you now? I will come to meet you personally. I am waiting for Xiaoluo outside the school gate!”
“I will wait for you in my office!” The headmaster said.
“OK, I will be there soon!” Ling Tianyi drove directly to the Administration Building. He was the biggest shareholder, so the guards didn’t dare to stop him.
“Manager Ling! Have a seat please!” The headmaster greeted Ling Tianyi. The secretary brought the supreme Tieguanyin Tea to them, and then she left and closed the door.
“Headmaster, Xiaoluo troubled you again. She was young and ignorant, I will teach her a lesson later. Please do me a favor to suppress it this time.” Ling Tianyi said. Although he was very angry, he had to protect Xia Xiaoluo. He knew it was going worse and worse. It would be recorded in her profile. More seriously, she would be expelled from school.
“Manager Ling, it’s not an ordinary incident! There are so many students, it is really difficult!” The headmaster said awkwardly. In fact, he could deal with it easily. If he could not deal with it, he would be not qualified for the position of the headmaster. But he would not help Ling Tianyi so easily. He must find a reasonable standpoint between Ling Tianyi and Ling Desheng. If Ling Tianyi just ordered him and then he obeyed, he would not have the excuse to explain to Ling Desheng when he was scolded by Ling Desheng.
“As the biggest shareholder of the school, I think I have the right to decide something, right? Ling Tianyi said coldly. He just asked the headmaster for help, but now he wanted to force the headmaster to deal with it. In a word, he could do everything to protect Xia Xiaoluo, making the headmaster help him to deal with it.
“The election of the next headmaster will begin soon, if you can’t deal with it, I think I have to hire another capable person with both ability and political integrity.” Ling Tianyi knew that the headmaster cared about his position very much.
“All right! I will deal with it. However, Manager Ling should also do something to help.” The headmaster said. Ling Tianyi nodded with satisfactory. He knew what he should do.
