Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s

Chapter 403: Chapter 403 Cheating

Principal Chu lifted his head and saw Chiang Xiao, feeling as if his eyes were suddenly brightened.

What a pretty little girl!

Especially her eyes, dark and lustrous, were particularly expressive.

Looking at these eyes, one could feel that this girl was very smart and quick-witted.

”Hello, Principal Chu, I’m Chiang Xiao from Siyang Village, here to take the accelerated exam.”

Well, she is poised, not stage-frightened at all.

The students in the school would cower at his presence as if mice that had seen a cat, but this girl wasn’t scared at all.

Principal Chu knew he looked stern.

”Chiang Xiao, do you have confidence? I must make it clear upfront, cheating is strictly forbidden. Our school despises cheating the most, and if you cheat, you won’t even be able to attend the first year of middle school.”

Song Tianyang had a dark expression.

Uncle, with your stern appearance and severe speech, aren’t you trying to scare Chiang Xiao on purpose?

Chiang Xiao nodded, her tone steady, ”Yes, Principal Chu, I promise to take the test with honesty and by my true abilities, without any deceit or fraud.”

”Good!”

Some people can be understood through just a sentence or two about their nature and character.

Regardless, Chiang Xiao withstood the pressure he applied and managed to respond with a powerful statement; Principal Chu’s opinion of her had risen to a quite high regard.

”Alright then, Tianyang, you sit here for a while. I will have someone lead her to the examination room.”

Principal Chu walked out with Chiang Xiao, and looking back, she saw Song Tianyang making a cheering gesture with his mouth. She smiled and nodded, giving him an OK sign.

OK?

Song Tianyang couldn’t help but smile too.

Chiang Xiao stepped out and bumped into Yu Chunyu carrying a stack of test papers.

”Chiang Xiao? You really dared to come?” Yu Chunyu exclaimed in surprise.

What a thing to say...

Listening to that, Principal Chu felt displeased.

”Do you know Chiang Xiao, Xiao Yu?”

”Not really,” Yu Chunyu reined in her reaction and glanced at Chiang Xiao.

”Go on, the exam time is about to start. The discipline of the class you teach this semester was not very good. You need to maintain strict discipline in the examination hall during the test.”

”...Alright, Principal, I understand.”

Yu Chunyu clenched her teeth secretly.

What does Principal Chu mean?

Couldn’t he say such a thing when no one else was around?

To Yu Chunyu, what was a quite ordinary remark felt like a scorching slap on her face, as Principal Chu’s words in front of Chiang Xiao seemed to rob her of her dignity.

Chiang Xiao’s gaze seemed almost mocking.

First-year students were inherently impulsive! Having just moved up from primary school, they were not yet accustomed to the pace of junior high - wasn’t that normal? Yet, he had to single her out!

She walked to her classroom with heavy steps, stepped up to the platform, placed the test papers down with emphasis, and looking at the faces below, said in a grave tone, ”Students! Let me tell you, Chiang Xiao has come to take the exam! Today, she is going to take the exam with second-year students, but don’t think you are off the hook. Tomorrow, she will take the test you are having today, and her scores will be compared alongside yours. So, do well on your tests! Don’t let her outperform all of you. If you do, don’t go around saying you are my students! I can’t afford to lose that face!”

Chiang Xiao followed Principal Chu to the classroom of Second-year Class One.

In the town’s middle school, each grade was comprised of three classes.

”Chiang Xiao, the teacher of this class is the strictest and keeps a very close eye on cheating. You will take the exam in this class.”

Chiang Xiao was speechless; how worried was Principal Chu that she would cheat?
