Xiao Chen heard the classmates behind him whispering, but he was not panicked at all.
Listening to the students' discussion, Song Ziyan was a little dazed. She suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Impossible, he wouldn't cheat."
The classroom suddenly became quiet, and all the students looked at her in confusion.
Song Ziyan is also a transfer student and usually doesn't communicate with others much.
No one understood why she was so excited.
Song Ziyan ignored the gazes of his classmates and walked out quickly.
"Xiao Chen, I came to this high school because of you. I believe in you."
The principal's office, Xiao's father and mother, and Xiao Ming were all there.
"I am Xiao Chen's father. His physics score was obtained by cheating. His score must be invalidated and he must be disqualified from the competition."
"Mr. Xiao, what you reported is very serious. I will investigate it thoroughly."
Principal Li Zhen said sternly, "But you are Xiao Chen's biological father? He was admitted to our school as a poor student. What's going on?"
"And he's been receiving school meal subsidies as a poor student. If you were his parents, then his status as a poor student would no longer apply."
Li Zhen saw that this family was wearing expensive clothes, but Xiao Chen was on the list of poor students. What was going on?
"He didn't live with us since he was a child. He is a disaster." Xiao's mother became emotional when she mentioned it.
"If it weren't for him, my Mingming wouldn't be so weak and sickly, and our company almost went bankrupt because of the bad luck he brought."
"Parent, please don't get excited. Let me figure out what's going on first." Li Zhen was a little confused.
He learned that Xiao Chen and Xiao Ming, who was next to the couple, were twins, but the parents seemed to dislike Xiao Chen.
And when he talks about it, he looks like he is filled with resentment and bitterness. How can there be such parents?
Just then, there was a knock on the door and Xiao Chen arrived.
Seeing his parents, Xiao Chen immediately understood what was going on. He walked to the desk and said, "Principal Li, I'm Xiao Chen."
"Xiao Chen, I need to consult you about something." Li Zhen asked him to sit down and personally poured him a glass of water.
"Are these your parents and younger brother?" he asked, pointing at Xiao's family.
"No." Xiao Chen shook his head in denial.
"No?" Li Zhen looked serious. If someone pretended to be a student's parent, he could just call the police.
"You rebellious son." Father Xiao was furious: "How dare you deny us?"
"I really gave birth to you in vain. Why don't you just die?" Xiao's mother looked resentful.
"Just this afternoon, Mr. Xiao signed the document severing our parent-child relationship."
Xiao Chen said indifferently: "So I said you are not my parents, is there a problem with that?"
"Do you want me to show you the signature?"
"Are you serious?" Father Xiao pointed at Xiao Chen and cursed, "Alright, if you dare to set foot in the Xiao family again, I'll break your legs."
"He's an ungrateful person, what an ungrateful person." Mother Xiao's hands were shaking with anger.
"Parent, don't get excited. I understand the situation. Let's talk about the issue you reported first." Li Zhen advised.
"Xiao Chen, your... former parents reported you for cheating in the three-school league. Is there such a thing?"
"Principal Li, I didn't cheat." Xiao Chen shook his head: "They are falsely accusing me."
"Who the hell do you think you are? Why would I frame you?" Father Xiao's blood pressure rose.
If it wasn't for school, he would have beaten someone up that morning.
"They are indeed making false accusations because their son, Xiao Ming, did not make it into the top five in the three-school joint entrance exam."
Xiao Chen said calmly, "The top five students in the three-school joint entrance exam will be able to enter the city physics competition. If you place in the top three, you will be admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University."
"They falsely accused me of cheating just to get a spot in the league."
Xiao Chen's words were well-reasoned and calm, which made Xiao's father and mother very angry, but they couldn't find a word to refute.
"Okay, Mr. Xiao, you reported Xiao Chen for cheating. Do you have any evidence?" asked the principal.
"Do I need evidence? He grew up in the countryside and didn't receive a good education."
Father Xiao's face darkened: "If he hadn't cheated, how could he have done so well in the exam? On the contrary, my Xiao Ming has been very outstanding since he was young."
"He ranked sixth this time. If Xiao Chen hadn't cheated, the qualification for the competition should have gone to Xiao Ming."
"Principal grandpa, my brother didn't mean it. Can you give him another chance?" Xiao Ming acted pitiful and weak again.
Xiao Chen glanced at Green Tea and laughed angrily: "Who do you think you are? Do I need you to beg for mercy?"
"Look at him, Principal, look at what kind of person he is." Xiao's mother pointed at Xiao Chen and said, "His brother pleaded for him, but he scolded his brother instead."
"This is the result of his grandmother's bad influence. It's totally unreasonable."
"Xiao Chen, do you have evidence to prove that you didn't cheat?" Li Zhen looked at him.
"I don't need to prove myself. Those who are innocent will be innocent." Xiao Chen smiled. "President Li, you used to be a famous physics professor."
"I've even taught at the top-tier South China University of Technology. How about you give me a few questions that you think are difficult?"
"Okay." Li Zhen's eyes showed a hint of appreciation: "Let me test you."
He believed Xiao Chen because Xiao Chen's eyes were clear.
In contrast, his younger brother Xiao Ming is pretentious, acts pitiful everywhere, and is not likable.
"Xiao Ming, your parents said you are very good. How about we take the exam together?" Xiao Chen glanced at Xiao Ming.
"I, I..." A trace of panic flashed across Xiao Ming's eyes.
In fact, Xiao Chen knew exactly what kind of person this kid was.
