Wei Guoqiang couldn't help himself and stood up from his seat. Then he said, "Everyone... be quiet... The teacher is right. Let's try our best!"

He paused for a moment, glanced at everyone, and then changed the subject, saying, "We're all here for tutoring. We're all adults, not fifteen or sixteen-year-olds bargaining with the teacher. I think everyone here knows why you're here, so I won't elaborate. If you don't want to take the test, or are worried about failing or being laughed at, you can hand your test paper to the teacher now and leave the classroom so as not to disrupt other students' exams."

As he said this, the entire classroom suddenly became unusually quiet. Everyone was silent, their eyes wandering around, as if searching for the person who had taken the lead in not taking the exam.

Everyone's face showed a complex expression, a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

After saying that, he looked around and found that no one had handed in their paper and no one was talking anymore.

"Since no one has handed in their papers, let's start working on the test!"

After saying that, Wei Guoqiang sat down and started to do the questions.

Li Mei held the test paper with a sad face. She pushed her deskmate Liu Tingting. Liu Tingting looked at her, and her face was not much better. She just shook her head.

She picked up the test paper, and Li Mei stretched her neck to see her test paper.

She lowered her head and asked in a low voice, "Why did you tick all the multiple-choice questions?"

Liu Tingting replied, "You don't understand. If it's either '×' or '√', you'll always get some points."

When Li Mei heard her say that, she thought it made sense and said, "Your idea is good, so I'll cross it all out."

The two of them, as if they had discovered some secret, covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

Just then, Teacher Qin came to their desks, bent down, looked at Liu Tingting's test paper, frowned, and walked away.

Teacher Qin came behind Wang Xiaolan, looked at the test questions she had done for a while, showed a satisfied smile on her face, and walked away.

Li Mei whispered, "Tingting, did you see that? Teacher Qin just walked past that barefoot doctor with a smile on her face."

Liu Tingting said, "It's not as exaggerated as you say, right?"

Li Mei said, "It's true. Could it be that the barefoot doctor got all the questions right?"

Liu Tingting didn't answer her question. While working on the test, she whispered, "Don't look at me anymore. Just do the test quickly! Don't lose to the barefoot doctor. If you do, we'll both lose face."

Teacher Qin at the podium said, "Some students have been talking non-stop since the beginning of the exam. If you don't want to take the exam, you can hand in your paper early so as not to disturb other students."

Only then did Liu Tingting and Li Mei calm down.

Wei Guoqiang handed the completed test paper to the teacher and walked out of the classroom with his schoolbag.

At this time, Li Mei touched Liu Tingting's elbow and winked. She followed Li Mei's gaze and saw Wang Xiaolan walking towards the podium with the test paper. She handed the test paper to the teacher. Teacher Qin glanced at the test paper and nodded to Wang Xiaolan with satisfaction. Wang Xiaolan bowed politely to the teacher and left the classroom.

Li Mei and Liu Tingting looked at each other, picked up the test papers on the table, hurried to the podium, and put the test papers on the podium. Teacher Qin quickly picked up the test papers of the two and took a look.

"You haven't finished your test yet, and you're already handing in your paper?"

Li Mei craned her neck to look at Wang Xiaolan, who had already walked out of the classroom door, and asked anxiously, "Teacher, didn't you say that we only get what we do?"

Teacher Qin said, "There's still half an hour until the end of get out of class. Why don't you think about it carefully? Maybe you can remember something."

Liu Tingting said, "Teacher, we really can't think of an answer. Anyway, you will explain the test questions tomorrow, and we will listen carefully then."

When Teacher Qin saw that the two of them had no intention of doing the questions anymore, he had no choice but to let them leave the examination room.

The two hurried to the school's bicycle shed, took out their keys to unlock the bicycles, put their schoolbags in the basket on the front wheel, got on their bicycles, and rushed to the school gate impatiently.

However, when they stepped out of the school gate, they didn't even see Wang Xiaolan. This made them very angry and disappointed, so they parked their bicycles under a big tree on the roadside and sat down on the ground.

Li Mei, puzzled, asked, "Tingting, do you think that barefoot doctor had wings? He disappeared in just a moment? We were only there for less than five minutes. It's really strange."

Liu Tingting, with a gloomy face, said: "Who knows?"

Li Mei said, "Tingting, you two are sisters-in-law. She hit you, why didn't you fight back?"

Liu Tingting said, "Don't I want to fight back? So many people are looking at me, and the acting squad leader is here, and you don't help me. I treat you as a friend..."

Li Mei's eyes began to flicker and she didn't dare to look the other person in the eye. She felt a little guilty and didn't know how to answer this question.

Her lips trembled slightly, and her voice became halting. "Um... I... actually..." She tried to find a reasonable explanation, but found her thoughts too confused to form coherent words. So, she began to speak incoherently, hoping to cover up her inner uneasiness and guilt.

"Tingting, you misunderstood me! We are good friends, and you never told me that you had such a relationship. If I had known earlier, I would never have let you get involved in this. Later, when I realized that this matter was not good for you and wanted to help you, my classmates and the class monitor were all looking at us... I really didn't know what to do... I am really sorry, but please believe that I didn't mean to not help you."

Liu Tingting's eyes widened, filled with disappointment, and she glared at Li Mei fiercely. She knew very well that Li Mei was a cowardly, selfish person, and she was still making excuses for herself.

Li Mei wanted to explain more, but Liu Tingting didn't give her a chance and interrupted her impatiently, "Enough! Stop talking! I've heard enough of your meaningless excuses. You're saying this because you're worried about your image in front of Wei Guoqiang!"

Li Mei was a little overwhelmed by Liu Tingting's words. She tried to speak again, but found that her throat seemed to be blocked and she could not make any sound.

Li Mei felt a little embarrassed when she heard Liu Tingting speak out her thoughts, but she still didn't want to break up with Liu Tingting. She mustered up her courage and said, "Okay, Tingting, don't be angry. It's my fault. Please forgive me!"

At this time, Liu Tingting took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and did not answer her.

She paused for a moment, and seeing that Liu Tingting had calmed down a bit, she gossiped, "You and she are sisters-in-law?"

"What the hell are you talking about sisters-in-law? I had originally persuaded my mother-in-law to persuade my stubborn father-in-law not to recognize his wandering son, but what happened? I didn't expect that someone would suddenly show up in the middle of the process! It's really infuriating..."

Li Mei asked in confusion, "Tingting, you're saying something else! Cheng Yaojin? Who is he?"
