Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Heng Chuan First Middle School had always been better at science. Xu Yaoguang was good in science, but his Chinese and English were average.

Yun Cheng First Middle School was better at languages. The first and second best scorers of the Chinese and English entrance exams almost always came from Yun Cheng First Middle School.

When did Xu Yaoguang become the best at English in the city?

How many marks did he score, then?

Li Airong glanced at it.

The first column… 150 marks!

“Full marks?” Li Airong eyes flickered. She almost lost it when she glanced at the name in the first column.

 3Qin Ran?

The other teachers who heard the words “full marks” started to gather around her.

The exam paper this time was surprisingly difficult. When the papers were finished being marked, teachers from all subjects came together to discuss how difficult it would be to score full marks for this paper.

“Full marks? Someone actually scored full marks for such a hard paper?” Mr. Li was quite surprised. “I don’t even recognize the words in two of the middle choices and had to check the dictionary to understand those obscure words.”

1“Xu Yaoguang, right?”

 2“How amazing.”

 1“Well, he transferred here from the capital and he has always been good…”

After hearing Li Airong say that someone scored full marks, the other teachers gathered around her, especially Mr. Li, who squeezed to the front.

“Qin Ran?” After seeing the results, someone from the back read out the name in the first column.

After seeing the results, teachers standing behind Ms. Chen were speechless.

Everyone looked at each other, and their expressions were rather subtle.

1Qin Ran’s famous name was known to everyone, including Mr. Gao, who only read the classics, and unsurprisingly, the teachers in the third grade.

Her reputation was also widely known for never having high results.

 2There were even rumors about her since the day she started school. She seemed to be a bad student, had a messed up profile, and it would be laudable if she scored double digits in the monthly and weekly exams.

This time she scored full marks? Where did Xu Yaoguang and Pan Mingyue, the two treasures of the school, belong then?

Li Airong looked at the second column. Xu Yaoguang, 145 marks. Ranked second in the whole school and fifth in the whole city.

It was very in line with her prediction.

Just that…

Li Airong placed her cup on the table, placed her hands on her chest, and looked at Mr. Li with a sneer. Mockingly, she said, “Ms. Chen, I only refused to teach her. No matter how angry she was, she did not have to cheat by getting the city entrance exam answers. Does she think we are blind?!”

 2**

At this time, Qin Ran was lying on the table. She was not sleeping but resting her head.

The answers were not distributed yet. Lin Siran was currently discussing her answers with the person sitting in front of her. She glanced at Qin Ran’s hand movements and could not help but poke her arm. After that, she leaned over and whispered, “Did you choose C for all the choices in your English exam?”

She took Xu Yaoguang’s English script and compared her answers.

For this English exam, C was the answer for 42 marks worth of questions.

Qin Ran slowly lifted her head from the table. After hearing Lin Siran’s question, she was in a daze for a moment before reacting. “It can’t be.”

“Can’t be?” Lin Siran raised her voice.

At that moment, she really wanted to wake Qin Ran up. “What did you choose, then? A, B, or D?”

She thought about it for a while before turning to Qin Ran. “If you chose A, you can probably score about 30 marks.”

In reality, Qin Ran could not fall asleep. She took off the school jacket that was covering her and slowly wore it.

When she heard Lin Siran’s words, she only raised her eyebrows slightly and did not answer immediately.

Looking at her expression, Lin Siran suddenly thought of one possibility. She raised her head stiffly. “Don’t tell me that you did it by gut feeling?”

In her impression, Qin Ran was a very strange person.

She could avoid the correct answer accurately and perfectly each time.

 1Qin Ran coughed twice. After lying down for so long, her throat was a bit numb.

She massaged her throat and casually replied, “I guess so.”

It was over.

 1Lin Siran turned around numbly.

The boy in front of Lin Siran also looked at Qin Ran expressionlessly.

A few seconds later, he clutched his chest and turned around in pain.

Qiao Sheng noticed the situation and raised his eyebrows subconsciously. “What?”

“Sister Ran did the English test solely by gut feeling!”

The class fell silent.

The English class representative gave Qin Ran a grieving look.

Lin Siran refused to give up and tried to salvage the situation. “Sister Ran, say that you were just joking.”

“Ah.” Qin Ran glanced at the people around her. “I object.”

Lin Siran started to ponder deeply.

Qiao Sheng opened his mouth and wanted to say, “Sister Ran is just a different firework.”

At this time, Gao Yang walked in.

The clamoring in the class suddenly stopped.

They watched as Gao Yang quietly stood beside Lin Siran’s row of tables. He looked at Qin Ran and his mouth twitched as if he wanted to say something.

Finally, he gave up and said directly, “Qin Ran, you… come out with me for a while.”

Qin Ran followed Gao Yang out without any surprise. She was relaxed and did not seem to be in a hurry.

Her expression was calm and stable.

**

Qin Ran followed behind Gao Yang and went to the director’s office.

In the office, a few teachers watched the scene unfold.

This was the fourth time Director Ding was seeing Qin Ran in public. This was because she was closely linked to Feng Loucheng and the school’s doctor.

Director Ding spoke kindly, “Student Qin, do you know what your score is?”

Qin Ran nodded. She was very confident and arrogantly replied, “Of course. Besides the science portion, I probably scored full marks for the rest.”

Li Airong gave her a mocking look. With a slight smile, she said, “I was right to say that your IQ is not high. If you scored a pass, we probably wouldn’t take notice, but you were really careless this time. You gained the highest marks in the entire city for all five subjects after copying the answers so brilliantly. Do you think nobody would know?”

 1After the other teachers heard this, they looked at Qin Ran speechlessly.

“Did you do this yourself?” Director Ding paused and asked Qin Ran. “Or did you somehow get the answers from somewhere? Tell me honestly. You will be fine.”

Director Ding knew that Qin Ran had a bad background and was trying to give her a way out.

As the senior high school teaching director, he naturally heard of the stories related to this school beauty.

Director Ding had already settled three matters for Qin Ran before, including the speech incident, the photo, and the following violin incident with Qin Yu which was honestly not related to Qin Ran.

This time, Director Ding also believed that Qin Ran was being framed.

“Director!” It was obvious that he was being biased towards her. Li Airong was shocked and narrowed her eyes slightly. “What do you mean?”

Director Ding glanced at her. “She’s still a young child. It’s natural for her to mess up once in a while.”

With that in mind, Director Ding motioned Qin Ran to admit that she was wrong so he could erase the score and take it as if this situation never happened.

He would just try to make the mistake less serious.

Otherwise, no matter who was pulling the strings behind Qin Ran, Qin Ran would be labeled as a cheater forever and there would be a heavy penalty recorded in her report book.

Director Ding initially thought that Qin Ran would definitely understand what he meant.

However…

A smile appeared on Qin Ran’s face. She said lightly, “No. No one gave me any answers. I did it myself.”

Director Ding was taken aback.

This was not what he expected. He quickly gave a Qin Ran a suggestive look. She should not be saying such things at this time.

He opened his mouth. “Student Qin Ran…”

Before Director Ding could finish, Li Airong interrupted him. Her lips curved into a sinister grin as she said, “Qin Ran, are you admitting that you did the paper yourself?”

Li Airong wanted to laugh.

If Director Ding really wanted to cover for Qin Ran, there was nothing Li Airong could do to stir up something big.

Unfortunately, Qin Ran was brainless. Even though Director Ding gave her a way out, she was not afraid of making it worse.

Let’s see how she actually got the score!

Director Ding frowned. He looked at Qin Ran a little worriedly. He opened his mouth and wanted to let Qin Ran understand his intentions.

Qin Ran looked at him but did not seem to understand his deep intentions. She only nodded casually. “If it’s fake, then replace it.”

As she was afraid that Qin Ran would repent, Li Airong promptly took out next month’s exam questions that she just came up with.

 1Not all the questions were done, but the multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blanks questions were finished and the difficulty and weightage were similar.

Furthermore, she even asked for a few observing teachers to come up with questions on the spot.

She put the English paper on the empty table in the staff room for Qin Ran to do and told the other teachers to come up with questions at the same time.

Of course, as she was afraid that Gao Yang would cover for Qin Ran, Li Airong did not ask him to come up with questions and only asked another Math teacher.

Director Ding looked at Qin Ran nervously and his eyebrows were tense with worry.

Qin Ran did not say anything. When she decided to take the exam seriously, she expected this situation to happen.

She sat down instantly and started to answer Li Airong’s English questions.

There were fifteen multiple-choice questions and 20 blanks to be filled in.

It was simpler than the mid-term exams, and she seemed to be able to come up with the answers at the glance. Qin Ran completed all of them in less than fifteen minutes.

Li Airong looked at her with ridicule. When she was done, she quickly took Qin Ran’s paper and scanned it from the first question.

Her face stiffened when she looked at it and her sneer turned into shock.

Director Ding had been observing the situation closely. When he saw Li Airong’s expression change, he vaguely guessed the conclusion.

It was unlike what he expected and he looked at Qin Ran in surprise.

At the same time, a Math teacher came up with a Math question.

This Math teacher also taught the third grade and all his questions were lengthy and comprehensive questions. They were very difficult and the calculation was very complicated.

Qin Ran finished all three questions in less than twenty minutes.

It was mostly because her left hand was particularly slow at writing.

The Math teacher took her paper in disbelief and went to a corner started to calculate the answers from the script that he took from the director’s office.

After he calculated the answers, he sat at his desk with a perplexed look.

Immediately afterward, the biology teacher took Qin Ran’s answers and started to think about life. His questions included four pairs of chromosomal genes, photosynthesis, respiration, and a cell diagram.

Every question required in-depth knowledge and extracurricular understanding, especially the hereditary process. Even under normal circumstances, he would need ten minutes to draw the genetic chart.

However, Qin Ran finished the three questions in ten minutes and even got them all correct.

These teachers did not announce the results, but everyone could tell the results from their expressions.

At this point in time, Director Ding was astounded. He looked at Qin Ran for a long time without speaking.

At the side, Gao Yang also did not expect this result. He was currently in front of the Math teacher who set the question looking at the questions and answers. While examining them, he kept turning his head from time to time to look at Qin Ran as if he met her for the first time.

In the entire staff room, Qin Ran was the calmest.

She massaged her wrists, looked up, and smiled. “There’s still Chemistry left. Which Chemistry teacher would you like to continue this with?”
