You're dumping me, huh? Fine, then I'll just pick up the school beauty and make her my wif

Faced with Su Qinghe's cold yet oppressive questioning, and the mocking gazes of the surrounding classmates as if they were watching a clown, Zhao Wenyu's facial muscles twitched uncontrollably a few times.

He now truly understands what it means to be caught in a dilemma...

"I...I..."

Cold sweat streamed down Zhao Wenyu's face as he stammered for a long time, unable to give a coherent explanation.

Just a second before he was about to lose all hope, a thought suddenly flashed out from the depths of his mind.

Immediately, Zhao Wenyu, as if grasping at a last straw, hysterically shouted at the top of his lungs, "He cheated! Jiang Che definitely cheated!"

Just a second ago, Zhao Wenyu was looking guilty and embarrassed and wanted to slip away, but after thinking of this, he straightened his back immediately.

He looked at the group of students in front of him and said loudly, "Hasn't everyone thought about this carefully? Jiang Che used to struggle to even get 500 points! How could he possibly improve by more than 100 points in just one month!"

"And they just barely beat me by 0.5 points! Isn't that just because they got the answers beforehand and deliberately manipulated the score to humiliate me?!"

When Zhao Wenyu yelled, the students around him who had been watching the spectacle immediately fell silent.

Then whispers arose from all directions—

"Hiss... Actually, what Zhao Wenyu said isn't entirely unreasonable. Jiang Che's rate of progress is indeed a bit outrageous..."

"Yeah, improving by more than a hundred points in a month, especially for a high-difficulty exam like the mock exam, just doesn't seem realistic."

"Come on, you guys! You all know how strict the invigilation was for this mock exam. There were four invigilators in each exam room, plus 360-degree surveillance with no blind spots. Even if Jiang Che had incredible abilities, he couldn't cheat!"

"I also think it's impossible for Jiang Che to have cheated. I was in the same exam room as him, and there was a proctor standing next to his seat. If he really cheated, how could the proctor not have seen him?"

"Exactly, especially since the exam rooms were randomly assigned this time. Who was he going to copy from? Was he going to copy from thin air? Can't he use his brain for once...?"

"Zhao Wenyu is clearly facing certain death. He's attacking people like a mad dog. He's such a sore loser. Ugh, what a disgrace..."

Just as the crowd was chattering and arguing, a stern rebuke suddenly came from the outside.

"What are you doing? What are you doing! Gathering around here means you don't have to attend morning reading, right?!"

Everyone turned around at the sound and saw Old Li leading several teachers holding report cards, frowning as he squeezed into the crowd.

Upon seeing Old Li arrive, Zhao Wenyu reacted as if he had seen his own father, practically tumbling and crawling over to grab Old Li's arm.

"Teacher Li! Teacher Li, you must help me! Jiang Che cheated blatantly in this mock exam!"

"He copied the answers! His grade must be canceled immediately, and he should be given a major demerit!"

At this moment, Zhao Wenyu's eyes were bloodshot, and he pointed in Jiang Che's direction with gritted teeth, his face contorted with rage.

Those who know Lao Li know that he is arguably the most tolerant and considerate teacher among all the teachers in the school.

Even so, Old Li simply couldn't tolerate Zhao Wenyu's erratic behavior and brushed away Zhao Wenyu's hand that was gripping his arm with some disgust.

Then he turned his gaze to Jiang Che, who remained calm and composed to the side.

The students around them held their breath, wanting to see how the teachers would handle the situation.

Most people assumed that after being accused by Zhao Wenyu, the teachers, even if they didn't believe him, would at least check the surveillance footage.

But the truth surprised everyone.

"As soon as the grades were tallied last night, teachers from several grade levels had already noticed Jiang Che's score."

"Although Jiang Che has made great progress in the recent weekly and monthly tests, it is still a mock exam. To be on the safe side, we immediately pulled up all the surveillance footage from Jiang Che's exam room and carefully reviewed it frame by frame."

Old Li's gaze swept over every student present, and he said calmly and slowly, "During the exam, Jiang Che did not look around or do anything against the rules."

"Not only did he not violate any rules," Old Li pushed up his reading glasses, looking at Jiang Che with admiration in his eyes, "we teachers even took out all of Jiang Che's papers from various subjects recently and compared them."

"This child's problem-solving approach is very clear, and he uses extremely ingenious competition-level solutions for many of the most challenging problems."

"To be honest, without putting in a lot of hard work, most students simply couldn't write out this kind of process."

After a pause, Old Li turned his head and glared sternly at Zhao Wenyu, whose face had already turned ashen. Then, his tone became more forceful: "So, I can tell everyone here with absolute certainty that Jiang Che's grades are entirely the result of his own tireless efforts over the past month! There is absolutely no element of cheating involved!"

"You should all learn from Jiang Che and see how hard he works to improve!"

These words were spoken with great conviction, and the surrounding crowd was stunned for a few seconds before erupting into a clamor.

"Even the teacher said so, so it seems that Jiang Che's grades are really fine now."

"Yes, yes, we've even watched the surveillance footage frame by frame, what else is there to doubt?"

"A score increase of over 100 points in a month? That's fucking cheating! This learning talent is terrifying..."

While marveling at Jiang Che's meteoric rise, everyone turned their attention to Zhao Wenyu, who had just been loudly accusing others of cheating.

Those gazes no longer held the spectator's mentality of watching a spectacle; instead, they were filled with undisguised contempt and mockery.

"Hey, who was shouting so loudly just now? Weren't they the ones who kept accusing someone of cheating?"

"Exactly! He throws dirty water when he can't beat others, and he's supposed to be in the top 100 of the grade? I think the one who should be investigated more thoroughly isn't Jiang Che, but Zhao Wenyu. How could someone like that get into the top 100?"

"If you can't accept defeat, just say so. You're biting like a mad dog. Tsk tsk tsk, it's disgusting."

Hearing the tidal wave of laughter surrounding him, Zhao Wenyu felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Alright, alright, stop crowding around here!"

Old Li, seeing that it was about time, waved his hand and loudly dispersed the crowd, "Morning reading is about to start, everyone hurry back to the classroom to recite your lessons!"

"Those who didn't do well this time, go back and learn from your mistakes. Those who did well, don't be arrogant. There's not much time left until the college entrance exam, so everyone needs to focus on their studies!"
