"Do you understand?" The teacher's voice gradually lowered, speaking only in the voices of the two of them.

Qi Jiu nodded. "I understand."

"What do you want to say?"

If this gets out, it won't be a small matter. If I get involved, there will be no good. Not only will my reputation be ruined, but what will I do when I go back to school?

"The innocent are innocent, it's not my fault, so I naturally won't take the blame. The teacher should just quietly wait for things to get better."

The teacher took the answer key and test paper from her, adjusted her glasses, looked at Yu You again, and raised her voice.

"Yu You, I'll ask you one last time, did Qi Jiu really teach you how to solve this problem?"

This question had been asked several times in just ten minutes, which made Yu You very flustered.

But the more this is the case, the less she can bear it all by herself; even for a moment of comfort, she needs someone to help her.

His guilt grew stronger, but looking down at Qi Jiu standing next to the teacher, he still forced a nod.

"Yes, Qi Jiu spent the whole lunch break teaching me. It was in that empty classroom next door. You can ask the other students; they should have seen it too."

"Alright, since that's the case, then we'll have to invite the base's owner here. Qi Jiu should be fine, right? Leaking exam answers concerns the reputation of various universities and even Chinese students studying abroad! We can't just pretend we didn't see it."

"Exam questions leaked?"

"What's wrong? Aren't these all answers? Why would the teacher think this is a leaked exam question?"

Everyone seemed a little confused, but Qi Jiu's expression remained unchanged, as if she didn't care about the matter at all. Yu You, on the other hand, was quite different.

From an angle unseen by others, his pupils trembled, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back without him even realizing it.

The answers were leaked—how did you figure that out? Just from the last question?

"Teacher, there isn't just one way to solve this problem, so why do you think the answer has been leaked?"

Yu You really couldn't understand it. That person clearly said there wouldn't be any problems. She had also looked at it before writing, and there wasn't anything too outrageous or incomprehensible in the process.

"You don't need to worry about that."

As he spoke, he turned to Qi Jiu and said, "You should go back first. We will investigate."

This class was originally supposed to be the last day for releasing grades and holding a class meeting, but this incident has happened, so it seems it will be delayed a bit.

Half of the students have started packing to leave because their grades are not up to standard, while others are stuck here because the truth is unknown.

Yu You is one of them, and now just thinking about these things makes her feel restless.

An Ran looked at the person who had come back and immediately lay down to sleep, and sighed helplessly.

"You're really thick-skinned. Although I don't believe you would do such a thing, you should at least be a little worried about the exam questions being leaked. If this gets reported, what will you do to save face?"

She is now a respectable public figure, and many of her roles cannot be compromised.

"Yeah, you can actually sleep?" Chang Xiaoyuan was impressed.

Qi Jiu was annoyed by their constant chatter, so she finally got up. "Why can't I sleep? I shouldn't be the one who can't sleep right now."

As soon as she finished speaking, the little girl's gaze fell on Yu You in the front row.

Perhaps she felt guilty, so she changed her seat in time, but can she escape forever?

What's meant to happen will happen eventually; what's happening now is just cowardly behavior.

Upon hearing this, the people around her seemed to realize something and followed her gaze.

Almost everyone in the classroom had left by some time ago. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yu Qi darted to Qi Jiu's side.

"Idol, what do you mean by that? What did Yu You do? What did you see in class just now?"

The people who had been observing her movements soon noticed something was wrong.

The girl pursed her lips, then suddenly smiled. "Of course, I saw something incredible."

"What's the big deal?"

It was rare for Qi Jiu to see An Ran hiding her curiosity, and looking at the others around her, they all had the same expression.

"Yu You's problem-solving process is 90 percent similar to the answer."

Yu Qi was taken aback, somewhat puzzled. "But that doesn't prove anything, does it? Although the solution to that question wasn't exactly the same, it could also be the same as the answer key. Even if it were the same for multiple-choice or fill-in-the-blank questions, wouldn't that be expected?"

But if we invite the owner of this base to investigate just for this reason, isn't that making a mountain out of a molehill?

The girl smiled brightly, "What if we didn't learn the solution process in this answer at all? What if the teacher didn't intend to use this answer?"

"What?" Chang Xiaoyuan's eyes widened. "Didn't you learn it? Then that means..."

If that's the case, wouldn't Yu You be essentially admitting to cheating?

The air suddenly fell silent, and the expressions of the people around them changed.

Qi Jiu nodded. "Yes, even though I'm a college student now, there's still so much I haven't learned. And coincidentally, this time the answer was given using a theory I hadn't learned before."

The people around fell silent, and the surroundings remained quiet for an unknown period of time.

"So, Yu You is trying to drag you down with her?"

After thinking about it for a long time, although I really didn't want to admit it, it was the truth for now. The tutoring session at noon today was probably something she had planned long ago.
