When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase
Chapter 1197: Absolutely Refusing to AdmitIn the office of the grade director, the director slammed the note onto the desk heavily: "What do you have to say for yourself?"
The grade director was notoriously stern. Zhou Chengchen looked at the note; she knew there was no way to explain herself, but...
"I don’t know. I didn’t put it there."
"If it’s not you, then who? Are you saying someone else put it in your pencil case? Zhou Chengchen, have you been watching too many TV dramas?"
"It’s not me. I don’t know."
Zhou Chengchen remained defiant; she truly didn’t know.
She hadn’t even noticed anything in the small pocket when she opened her pencil case to get a pen.
Her pencil case wasn’t a complex design; it just had a small pocket in the lining, which was a birthday gift from Xiao Rou. She had no idea what that pocket was for; she had almost never even touched it, yet someone had stuffed a note inside.
In such cases, getting caught clearly has consequences. Admitting fault and pleading with the teacher might lead to punishment, but it would prevent her from looking too bad.
But Zhou Chengchen obviously wouldn’t admit it since it wasn’t her doing.
For a moment, the grade director also became angry.
The two were at a standstill until the English exam ended, and Zhou Chengchen’s teacher heard the news and rushed over.
Zhou Chengchen was very good at English, but she was lazy; she never bothered participating in national English contests for students, so her reputation wasn’t as big as those who had won awards.
But her teacher knew her capabilities very well; her level of English wasn’t on the same level as most high school students, and she had no need to do such a thing.
Yet her cheating was caught on the spot, and there were many students in the exam hall. Even with her teacher vouching for her, and even if all the teachers believed her, this matter couldn’t be swept under the rug.
Even if in the end, it was said she accidentally left it inside and forgot, the cheating incident was undeniable.
Ultimately, the school’s decision was to nullify her scores for all previous exams, including the English exam.
"It wasn’t me. Why should my scores be nullified? I’m not accepting this."
Zhou Chengchen’s temper wasn’t good either. What was she working hard for? She just wanted to get into the advanced class in her senior year, but if her scores were nullified, she wouldn’t be able to get into the advanced class at all.
"You say it wasn’t you. Do you have any evidence? I want facts."
The grade director, swayed by the homeroom teacher, had already made concessions; not giving her a formal demerit was already showing much face, but Zhou Chengchen remained defiant.
Teachers naturally held a supreme position in students’ minds, but that didn’t mean every student feared their teachers.
Zhou Chengchen was clearly the one who wasn’t afraid, her defiant attitude striking back. The grade director was so furious he nearly spat blood: "You... you call your parents in!"
Zhou Chengchen’s background wasn’t typical, so calling her parents wasn’t a simple matter, and the issue eventually escalated to the principal’s office.
In the eyes of students unaware, it seemed like a cheating incident escalated to the principal’s office.
Only those in the know understood it was because Miss Zhou’s identity was unique.
The one who came was Qi Cheng, dressed simply and elegantly, exuding the poised and affluent aura of a lady from a prestigious family.
The leaders of the school knew Zhou Chengchen’s identity and naturally knew Qi Cheng’s identity too.
"Mrs. Zhou, please come in."
Qi Cheng stepped in and immediately saw Zhou Chengchen standing to the side, her eyes slightly reddened, her expression stubborn.
