Chapter 155 - 155 155 Don’t admit your wrongdoings
Direction Wang lowered his eyes and hid the expression in his eyes.
After receiving the text message from the Tan family, Director Wang did not dare to delay and immediately sent someone to tamper with the surveillance video in Tan Rou’s exam hall. Now that a long time has passed, it must have been deleted.
The Tan family didn’t make it very clear and Director Wang didn’t know what was recorded in the surveillance camera. Since there was no video, Tan Rou wouldn’t be able to defend herself. Without evidence, the principal could only choose to believe him instead of a little girl!
Director Wang was confident. He calmly sipped a few mouthfuls of tea and put on a helpless expression after being rebutted by a student. “Young people are full of vigour. What’s there for me to be afraid of? There’s no benefit for me in accusing you.”
Tan Rou sneered in her heart. Director Wang was so calm which meant that he must have already prepared a backup plan. She wanted to see how they could continue this show. When they had enough of acting and revealed their flaws, it would be time to catch them all in one fell swoop!
Tan Rou’s aura was full of vigour. Her eyes were like the stars in the night sky, firmly locking onto Director Wang. She turned slightly and said, “Well, if you may, Director Wang.”
Then, she turned to look at Madam Li, who had been silent for a long time, and smiled. “Madam Li, do you want to repeat what you just said to the principal? Shall we go together?”
Director Wang narrowed his eyes and looked at Tan Rou with a dark expression. He snorted coldly, got up, straightened his bow tie, and walked out with his head held high.
Madam Li felt an inexplicable uneasiness in her heart. Her woman’s sixth sense told her that she might have been impulsive.
There had never been a student as bold as Tan Rou. No matter how bad a child was, they would feel a little guilty once they were caught. If Tan Rou was pretending to be calm and confident, it was too realistic. She even had some doubts.
However, Madam Li was a prideful person. She had already brought Tan Rou here. If she backed out and said that there might be a misunderstanding, wouldn’t she be slapping herself in the face in front of the students? How could she convince the public in the future?
Moreover, it was true that the note was found under Tan Rou’s feet. She knew it with one look at the surveillance camera. She had nothing to be afraid of. Perhaps it was just that students nowadays were too good at acting. They may look bold on the outside but were in fact trembling in fear on the inside. They would know fear once they arrived at the principal’s office.
Until now, Tan Rou has only been asked to write a self-reflection and for her parents to be called to school but Tan Rou didn’t know what was good for her and insisted on reporting it to the principal. Tan Rou was really courting death.
Madam Li rolled her eyes at Tan Rou. “Of course I’m going. I advise you to quickly take the initiative to admit your mistake. The principal hates this kind of thing the most. Be careful that you won’t be able to attend school in the end. You would end up disappointing your parents!”
Tan Rou’s lips curled up. “Don’t worry. I won’t let them down no matter what. I’ll make them proud.”
Madam Li looked at Tan Rou with a strange expression. In her opinion, it was already unbelievable that Tan Rou still dared to be stubborn. She didn’t expect that she would shamelessly boast about being the pride of her parents and make such a fool of herself in school. Her parents would probably die of shame if they knew about this. What a sin!
Madam Li shook her head, still stubbornly believing that what she had seen was true. She walked toward the principal’s office with an arrogant expression.
Tan Rou followed him out of the office. Due to how Director Wang had gone out first, the students outside the door were afraid of being scolded. They pushed each other out of the way, consciously making way for him.
At this moment, seeing that Madam Li and Tan Rou had also come out, many students began to whisper among themselves again. They looked at Tan Rou with eyes full of curiosity.
This was how it was like in their school. Even when no one knew the truth of the matter and none of them thought of the consequences, they would still be excited about dramas that challenged authority.
Whether Tan Rou cheated or not, or whether she would be expelled, it didn’t really matter to the others. It was just a topic after class.
However, Tan Rou had bravely confronted the Director in the office and even asked him if he dared to go to the principal’s office with her. This was undoubtedly a big rock thrown into the calm lake, breaking the suppressed emotions of the students.
They looked at Tan Rou as if she was a heroine who had risen up.
A boy couldn’t help but mumble, “F* ck! She’s so arrogant even when she cheated! Awesome!”
The girl next to him turned unhappy. “We don’t know if Tan Rou actually cheated. Baldy Wang likes to accuse others and Tan Rou is just brave enough to stand up against him!”
