Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Request for Public Examination PapersThe principal stood straight as a reflex of his body. It was a feeling like when students see a stern homeroom teacher, when in the army facing a rigid instructor, or at work confronting a nitpicky and stingy boss... The principal instinctively grasped this feeling and made a mental evaluation. Shi Yaoguang gave him a feeling of oppression that was comparable to that of a significant figure. Such an aura was not something ordinary people could possess. The fact that Shi Yaoguang could exert such an imposing manner precisely showed her extraordinariness. Thinking of this, the principal couldn’t help but reflect, wondering if there was anything he had done poorly. He hoped he hadn’t made this imposing Buddha bear a grudge against him. Little did Shi Yaoguang know, the principal was also an emperor of imagination. She hadn’t said anything yet, and he had already assumed a whole bunch of things by himself. "Principal, I need you to be a witness for the bet between Mr. Qin and me," she said. The principal nodded, "Of course, of course." Qin Hongbo couldn’t help but curl his lips at the principal’s repeated assurances. Wasn’t the principal taking him too lightly? When he said the same thing, the principal acted as if he found him annoying. But when spoken by Shi Yaoguang, the principal became serious. Really... He was halfway through his thoughts when he suddenly paused. It dawned on him. The world of adults has no such thing as ’easy.’ As the homeroom teacher of Class Seven, he had people below him who followed his lead, but likewise had more than one mountain pressing down on him from above. The principal was one of those mountains. Shi Yaoguang was just a less favored daughter of the Shi Family, so why would the principal give her special treatment? Before Qin Hongbo could think this through, he heard Shi Yaoguang speak again. "I have objections regarding the results of this pop quiz," she said. The principal’s eyes hardened, "What do you mean by that?" Searᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Qin Hongbo’s expression turned ugly, as if afraid she would make some excessive demands. Shi Yaoguang gave him a glance, her tone indifferent, "Originally, the bet between Mr. Qin and me was not clearly defined in terms of how exactly the wager was to be made. Therefore, if I wanted, I could fully exploit this loophole and make Mr. Qin concede, but I didn’t." "Seeing this point, I think Mr. Qin wouldn’t be stingy in allowing me to seek justice for myself, right?" Qin Hongbo scowled, "Stop being sarcastic. Who’s stopping you from seeking justice?" "Since Mr. Qin has no objection, then..." Her gaze shifted to the principal, "I’d like to trouble the principal to make an exception and publicize the test papers of this exam." The principal was somewhat surprised, "Publicize the test papers?" According to the rules, some exam papers are directly archived and sealed. And even when reviewing papers, they are not distributed to students. Shi Yaoguang’s request to publicize the test papers, could there be some hidden issue? The principal thought this when he heard Shi Yaoguang say, "I suspect that my test paper has been switched." As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar. "Hahahaha, Shi Yaoguang, you can’t possibly be unwilling to admit that you finished last, so you’re making up excuses, right?" "Exactly, exactly. Just because you say your test paper was switched, does it mean it was? What if it wasn’t?" "I think she lacks self-awareness? Maybe when she bet with Mr. Qin, she was confident and thought she would undoubtedly be number one, and then she was dumbfounded when the exam results came out, right?" Yu Zhenzhen laughed exaggeratedly, bending forwards and backwards, "Hahaha... Shi Yaoguang, you wouldn’t be trying to die of laughter, right?" Shi Yaoguang crossed her arms over her chest, maintaining her composure. She was not at all affected by their ridicule. Cheng Lingdang couldn’t take it anymore, her cheeks puffed out in anger, "What’s so funny? If my brother Shi says her exam was switched, then it must have been indeed switched. What gives you the right to dismiss it so lightly?" "Hahaha... listen to that, isn’t it hilarious?" "If everyone was like her, dissatisfied with their exam results, they could just claim their papers were swapped out, wouldn’t that throw everything into chaos?" "Exactly..." After everyone had their say, Shi Yaoguang finally spoke leisurely, "Are you done talking?" Everyone fell silent. She continued, "I made my statement to seek the principal’s opinion, not to seek your approval. Is there a need to be so self-righteous?" Her words left everyone breathless. Damn, what a sharp tongue. The principal cleared his throat, sharing his stance, "According to the rules, the papers for preliminary exams are not to be made public." Shi Yaoguang’s brows lifted slightly, "Does that mean, if we don’t follow the rules, it’s possible?" "In theory, yes," he replied, touching his nose, "However... whether to make the exams public still requires some negotiation." Shi Yaoguang expressed her understanding, "I’m willing to wait." Seeing this, the principal felt greatly relieved, "It’s good that Student Shi is understanding." But Yu Zhenzhen could hardly contain her frustration, "You make it sound so nice. You can wait, but are you planning to wait forever? Isn’t it just that you don’t want to admit defeat? Why sugarcoat it." Qin Hongbo felt the same way, he snorted decisively and said to the principal, "Principal, since Shi Yaoguang wants the papers to be made public, let’s try our best to accommodate her. That way, she won’t use this as an excuse to drag things out deliberately." Shi Yaoguang glanced at him, revealing a genuine smile, "Teacher Qin really understands how things work." The clueless Yu Zhenzhen: "..." The complimented yet unhappy Qin Hongbo: "..." Truth be told, at this point, he wasn’t very confident about taking Shi Yaoguang down. He just hoped that once the papers were made public, it would completely drive Shi Yaoguang away. ... Shi Yaoguang’s request to make her exam public in the principal’s office quickly spread throughout the school. Many shared the same thought as Yu Zhenzhen. She was only doing this to deliberately buy time. Only a few believed that Shi Yaoguang made such a request because she truly had a strong case. "She must be aware that the school wouldn’t let her do as she pleases, so she deliberately made this request to trouble the principal," Yu Zhenzhen confidently told Shi Yiqing in her ear. Hearing this, Shi Yiqing was not comforted. Others may not know, but she was very clear. The dark horse of the new semester, who got nearly perfect scores and was at the top of the grade, was Shi Yaoguang! And she was the one who had been deluded and had taken advantage of the situation. Actually, the fastest way to prove the scores was not by making the exam public, but rather... ...by having a retake on the spot. But, Shi Yaoguang making such a demand clearly wanted to catch her in one fell swoop. The more Shi Yiqing thought about it, the more guilt she felt. As soon as the school day ended, she couldn’t wait to leave. Stepping out of the school gates, she saw an advertisement for a beauty service on the roadside, and an idea suddenly struck her. Got it! The best way to utterly hide this matter was to destroy all the evidence. As long as the exam papers were gone, she wanted to see how Shi Yaoguang would investigate. She already had the perfect person in mind to execute the plan.
