Chapter 288: The Principal Has Arrived
Wu Jiangsheng looked up and saw Jiang Huaiyu at the classroom door, sudden thought struck him: âIs it you? Jiang Huaiyu, did you steal my paper because you were afraid Iâd pass and youâd lose the bet?â
The classmates all looked towards Jiang Huaiyu; it seemed there was some sense in what Wu Jiangsheng said.
Jiang Huaiyu scoffed disdainfully: âHa, Wu Jiangsheng, are you blaming the ground when you canât shit? You couldnât answer your exam paper, afraid to hand it in and fail, so you deliberately didnât submit it, and then blame the teacher for not giving you marks, blame others for stealing your paper? Wu Jiangsheng, are you even a man?â
Hearing this, the classmates felt that there was some reasonableness in what Jiang Huaiyu said as well.
Wu Jiangsheng glared venomously at Jiang Huaiyu: âNonsense, Iâm no idiot, I just didnât have the right study method before. Recently, after being tutored by Jiang Mengyu, Iâve identified my weaknesses and studying has become effortless for me.
The moment I got the math paper, I knew for sure I could pass, and after the exam, I estimated I scored at least eighty.
Jiang Huaiyu, Iâm certain you played a foul here. Afraid that I would pass, you stole my paper.â
Jiang Huaiyu snorted: âYou say I stole your paper, do you have any evidence? You donât have any, do you? Without evidence, thatâs slander! Mr. Chai, I want to accuse Wu Jiangsheng of slandering me!
He didnât perform well and had no grades, first he blames the teacher for losing his paper, then he blames me for stealing his paper. In fact, his only aim is to avoid the bet with me.
But, Wu Jiangsheng, our bet was that you pass every subject, and now you have zero for math, so you lost. You canât take the college entrance exam next year.
Of course, with your dumb brain and your grades, even if you were allowed to take the entrance exam, you wouldnât pass. You should thank me, letting you avoid the exam and saving the Wu Familyâs face.â
Wu Jiangshengâs face turned red with anger; it took a lot of effort for him to control himself and not hit someone.
Because, his Master once said, having learned his skills, you shouldnât easily hit people. Only if youâre absolutely sure that after hitting, the person would thank you or at the least, couldnât bother you.
Just as he was about to lose control of his anger, a voice suddenly rang out: âMr. Chai, Jiang Huaiyu, the evidence you want is right here.â
The classmates all turned to look back, and saw Principal Nian approaching, with a young boy beside him, who always had a camera hanging on his chest, and at this moment, he was also holding a pack of cigarettes.
Seeing the principal, Mr. Chai got flustered and quickly greeted: âPrincipal Nian, youâre here.â
Principal Nian surveyed Mr. Chai and Class 36 with an authoritative gaze, and asked Mr. Chai, âWhatâs going on?â
Mr. Chai rushed to explain, âItâs like this. Wu Jiangsheng didnât submit his math paper, so I gave him zero. He wasnât satisfied, first saying that I lost his paper, then blaming it on Class 37âs Jiang Huaiyu for stealing it.
Just as we were discussing this, you arrived.â
Principal Nian asked, âHow did Wu Jiangsheng perform in the other subjects?â
Mr. Chai quickly replied, âWu Jiangsheng did well in other subjects, scoring 82 in Chinese, 80 in Political Science, 81 in Physics, and 81 in Chemistry, itâs only in math he has zero, because of the missing paper.â
