Chapter 69: A Pitiful Person Is Usually One With Faults
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Wen Nuan looked at Yue Ling’s departing figure and said, “She just won’t give up, huh?”
Jiang Ling’er said nonchalantly, “She doesn’t even know that Bai Xue is just using her. How pitiful.”
Wen Nuan said, “A pitiful person is usually one with faults. I would never sympathize with her.”
Jiang Ling’er nodded. “Agreed.”
Yue Ling ran into the dean’s office.
The dean was shocked by Yue Ling’s arrival. He frowned and said, “What’s the matter?”
Yue Ling calmed herself down and said, “Dean, I’m Yue Ling. I want to know if Jiang Ling’er cheated.”
The dean glanced at Yue Ling. ‘You look like a smart girl, but you don’t even know you’re being manipulated by Bai Xue.’
The dean said, “We’ve already investigated this matter. Jiang Ling’er didn’t cheat.”
The dean sighed as he recalled that Bai Xue had also tricked him. Because of this, he would have to publicly apologize to Jiang Ling’er tomorrow.
Yue Ling felt extremely anxious. “How is that possible? Everyone knows that Jiang Ling’er’s grades are bad. Didn’t you guys call on her just now? She must have cheated!”
The dean knew why Yue Ling was so agitated, but he didn’t sympathize with her. If Yue Ling didn’t provoke Jiang Ling’er first, there would be no bet between them. If the bet never happened, he wouldn’t have to publicly apologize tomorrow.
The dean said sincerely, “Yue Ling, this is the truth. Many students joined the competition, but only 20 or so people passed. Among them, Jiang Ling’er was the only one who got full marks.”
Yue Ling was flustered. “Dean, I also joined the competition, so I understand how difficult it is. Based on Jiang Ling’er’s poor grades, it’s impossible for her to get full marks. She must have cheated! I heard that Miss Wen gave Jiang Ling’er some documents. The answers for the exam should be there!”
The dean’s face darkened. “Who told you that there was a problem with the documents? Who told you that the answers for the exam were there?”
Yue Ling said, “Bai Xue, the future Young Mistress of the Li family! Besides, didn’t you also call Jiang Ling’er in for an investigation? If it wasn’t for the cheating incident, why else would Jiang Ling’er be called over to the vice-principal’s office?”
The dean said, “Yue Ling, Bai Xue’s report was proven to be false. Just because you didn’t do well doesn’t mean you can accuse others of cheating. If you let others lead you astray, you won’t benefit at all.”
Yue Ling’s expression instantly turned ugly. “But that’s impossible! Jiang Ling’er’s grades are so bad. How can she get full marks?”
The dean was silent for a moment before saying, “Jiang Ling’er has been hiding her true abilities. Because of this incident, rumors against her has spread. The school has decided to publicly apologize to her tomorrow. Do you still think that she cheated?”
Yue Ling’s eyes were filled with tears as she said aggrievedly, “But Bai Xue said…”
The dean said impatiently, “You keep talking about Bai Xue, but didn’t she tell you that she will also publicly apologize to Ling’er tomorrow? Did you know that Ling’er will proceed to join the next stage of the National Competition?”
Yue Ling was speechless. Bai Xue hadn’t said anything to her at all!
The dean said, “Yue Ling, you need to be more careful. Don’t let other people deceive you.”
Yue Ling still refused to give up. “Dean, have you really investigated it? Or are you just afraid of the Jiang family and don’t dare to investigate?”
The dean almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Previously, because he was afraid of the Li family, he did not investigate thoroughly and was punished instead.
The dean said, “Yue Ling, you can eat whatever you want, but you can’t say whatever you want. Cheating to get full marks? How about you try it yourself? Many people didn’t do well in the exam, but Jiang Ling’er got full marks. The only explanation for that is she hid her abilities.”
Just then, the associate dean suddenly pushed the door open and entered. He smiled and said, “Dean, the results are here.. Among all the participating schools, only our school has a student who got full marks!”
