Chapter 223 Cover-up
As soon as these words were spoken, many people turned around and stared at Cen Yan, their gazes seeming as if they wanted to tear her flesh out and eat her raw. The proctoring teacher also immediately came over, staring at Cen Yan with an unfriendly expression.
"Please raise your hands, stand up and cooperate with the body search. Do not make any unnecessary movements."
Cen Yan laughed. If she still didn't understand that this person was deliberately trying to harm her, then she would truly be a fool.
But she has been on Dongming Island the whole time. In the two days since she came to Lancheng, she has not had any conflicts with anyone. Who wants to harm her? Could it be Ji Moliang, who said yesterday that she relied on luck?
Cen Yan did not get up, nor did she raise her hands like the criminal and let him interrogate her. Instead, she stopped what she was doing, glanced at her watch, and made sure it was the minute.
Seeing that Cen Yan did not make any move, the proctor who came over became angry and slammed his hand heavily on the table.
"Comrade, please cooperate with our work. Cheating will result in disqualification from the exam. Stand up immediately and get out! The examination room for the Traditional Chinese Medicine qualification exam cannot tolerate someone like you who tarnishes the reputation of Traditional Chinese Medicine!"
"The proctor keeps saying I cheated, but do they have any evidence? If someone says I cheated, am I supposed to stand up, raise my hands, and let them search me? What kind of person would that make me?" Cen Yan looked over calmly.
"This is the evidence. Do you think you can get away with it by just being stubborn and denying it?" The proctor picked up the crumpled paper on the table, his face becoming even more gloomy. He hated women like Cen Yan the most.
Why does she have to come out and show her face as a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner, and take qualification exams like a man? Doesn't she know that from birth, as a woman, she has never had this "qualification"?
Cen Yan laughed and said, "This crumpled paper is not my property. It was thrown to me by this examinee who keeps accusing me of cheating. He immediately reported me for cheating as soon as he threw it to me. I don't even know what happened myself."
"That's hilarious, absolutely hilarious! Would someone who cheats really admit to cheating?"
The man who pointed at Cen Yan and accused her of cheating curled his lips.
"This is irrefutable evidence, examiner. Disqualify her from the exam and expel her from the examination room! If such a wicked woman obtains a junior TCM practitioner's certificate, who knows what kind of ruthless killing she will commit in the future!"
"What's going on?" As the situation remained deadlocked, a female examiner immediately came over from the next examination room to inquire about the situation.
The male examiner noticed her displeasure but still explained the situation in detail before pointing at Cen Yan and reprimanding her.
"If she wasn't guilty, why would she react so strongly? Wouldn't it have been better to just cooperate with the investigation? Her current attitude is like someone stepped on her tail; there's definitely something wrong with her!"
Looking at the female examiner in front of her, Cen Yan felt that she seemed like a reasonable person, so she stood up and spoke slowly and deliberately:
"This crumpled piece of paper wasn't mine; the whistleblower threw it at me. I'm not sure if he threw it by mistake or if he was deliberately framing me. Then, before I could explain, the proctor came over and demanded that I cooperate with a body search. No one would agree to such an rude request."
Upon hearing Cen Yan's words, the female examiner immediately unfolded the crumpled paper and glanced briefly at Cen Yan's exam paper and the handwriting on it.
"They are different. It's obvious that one was written by a man and the other by a woman. The handwriting on the exam paper is very graceful."
The male examiner sneered, "Ms. Meng Qianyao, the crumpled paper was passed on by someone else. Of course, the handwriting is different from the exam paper. You wouldn't be deliberately protecting the cheater just because she's a woman, would you? Don't use the women's rights that you always talk about to cover up cheaters!"
