Chapter 263: My Scores Depend on My Mood
A person from the Ministry of Education looked at Gu Mang. “You’re the first person to say that these questions were not difficult.”
Gu Mang hummed a low “mm.”
The person was speechless.
Leader Liu narrowed his eyes and flipped open the folder on the meeting desk. He turned it around and picked it up for her to see. “You used to score zeroes for all subjects so why did you score full marks now?”
The folder contained Gu Mang’s profile and details. She scored zeroes for all the examinations on record.
Gu Mang gave a wicked smile. “Can I have a seat? Standing is tiring.”
Everyone was surprised. They had never seen such a snotty student! This could be considered as an interrogation and yet she raised such a request.
Leader Liu stared at her with his sharp eyes as he nodded. “Sure.”
Gu Mang dragged a chair over and sat down. Leaning backwards with her legs crossed, she was both brash and arrogant with a powerful aura.
Lifting her eyes, she looked at Leader Liu and slowly replied to his question. “My scores depend on my mood.”
Everyone’s eyes were fixated on Gu Mang as though they were looking at a monster. Did she really think that she knew everything and could decide whether she would answer the questions correctly or not? What student would purposely score zeroes when they could get good results?
Seeing how uncooperative she was, Leader Liu’s face darkened. “Gu Mang, we’re suspecting that you cheated during the exam. Please cooperate.”
“Cheated.” Gu Mang repeated the word and placed her hand randomly on the table. Her finger tapped the table as she said, “Evidence.”
Leader Liu placed the folder on the table. “Isn’t this evidence?”
“Past results can’t really be counted,” Gu Mang raised her brows as she said nonchalantly.
The patience of the person from the Ministry of Education was wearing thin as Gu Mang refused to confess.
He slammed the questions which he prepared earlier on the table. “I’ll give you a chance to prove your innocence. This is this year’s back-up exam. If you didn’t cheat you should be able to achieve a perfect score once more and reclaim your title as top in the nation.”
This was the best resolution that they discussed earlier.
Gu Mang cocked her head and glanced at the back-up exam on the table
She softly chuckled and responded in a low voice, “I don’t have time for this.”
Looking at her defiant expression, the faces of the officers from the Ministry of Education turned ugly. They had never encountered such a difficult student. On the way to Ming City High School, Leader Liu had looked through Gu Mang’s profile.
Putting aside the incident when she was sent to the juvenile correctional institution, she played truant, fought, and was expelled by a school once every year on average. Indeed, he should not be nice to students with a bad record.
He replied coldly, “We’re giving you a chance. Gu Mang, if you’re unable to prove your innocence, you’re deemed to have cheated. Do you know what the consequences of cheating on an exam of this scale are?”
“Consequences of cheating?” Gu Mang raised her brow. “Does it have anything to do with me?”
She was asking for a beating.
Leader Liu burst out in fury. He shot a glance at the police officers. “Since she won’t cooperate, detain her in the police station first and wait for everything to be investigated.”
A defiant student would naturally come clean after giving her a lesson.
Xi Yan’s expression changed. “Wait a minute. You don’t have sufficient evidence so what right do you have to detain her.”
Principal Fu probed Lu Shangjin and realized that Gu Mang’s academic results were not as simple as they seemed. When the investigation team arrived at the school, he gave Lu Shangjin a call.
Quite some time has passed but why isn’t Director-General Lu appeared yet?
He walked to the entrance to have a look as he gripped his hands nervously.
