Chu Yu's influence at Tsinghua University is so great that even the department head blindly defends her.
This is the department head! Chu Yu is just an ordinary student, what makes her so influential?
If so many people blindly defend a single student, is there any hope for this school?
Xu Yiyi finally stopped pretending to be innocent and said angrily:
"Director, why are you protecting her like this? Zhou Chuyu cheated, you should at least handle this matter fairly and impartially, following the proper procedures. But you didn't ask her anything and just concluded that she didn't cheat. Is this what Tsinghua University considers fair?"
The department head was stunned. Since he took office, no one had ever dared to speak to him like that.
However, Tsinghua University has always been an inclusive school, and in the end, Xu Yiyi was just expressing her own opinion.
The department head smiled and explained helplessly:
"Teacher Xu, you've misunderstood. It's not that I'm biased towards Zhou, but you don't know this... Our school always selects exam questions from various professional books and past exam papers. In the past, everyone would take the materials and write the questions by hand, but handwriting is time-consuming and prone to errors. Some time ago, Zhou wrote a simple program that scanned all the questions for each subject into the computer, creating a question bank. The examiners can then select questions from the question bank to create the exam paper... In other words, she already saw the exam questions, and the source code of the question bank is in her hands... Teacher Xu, you're not a computer science major, so you probably don't understand what I mean. To put it bluntly, Chu Yu has the source code; she can easily figure out the content of this exam by doing some minor tweaking. Tell me, would someone who knows what will be on the exam use such a low-level method to cheat?"
The department head's words caused an uproar among the students in the class.
They trusted Chu Yu only because of her character and talent, unaware that Chu Yu had helped create the exam questions.
If I had known, I should have bribed Chu Yu and asked her to reveal the test questions.
Xu Yiyi's face was deathly pale, as if she had suffered a great shock. "A question?"
“That’s right, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say she set the questions. But Tsinghua University has always valued fairness and impartiality. Zhou said that she would participate in the scholarship selection but would not take a single penny, wanting to give the opportunity to other students. Professor Xu, tell me, what reason would such an excellent student have to cheat?”
The slap in the face was so direct that Xu Yiyi's face turned pale and then red.
She never dreamed that the exam question bank was actually created by Chu Yu, and the exam papers were drawn from the question bank. In other words, Chu Yu was the master of setting exam questions at Tsinghua University, and every year thereafter, Chu Yu's mark would be on every exam paper.
Seeing that she didn't speak, the department head picked up the small note and looked around.
"As you all know, I'm known as the Tsinghua Scanner, possessing exclusive skills in handwriting analysis. If I can identify whose handwriting this is, I won't let it go easily. So, are you going to stand up voluntarily, or do you want me to investigate?"
After the department head finished speaking, the room fell silent. A short while later, a tall, thin boy wearing black-rimmed glasses stood up.
"Luo Yongwen?" Chu Yu was slightly surprised.
The department head didn't expect it to be him either. This kid is very talented in computers, which is why he developed an arrogant and unruly personality. He often skips classes and hides in the library to read books like crazy. Nobody knows what he's up to.
I failed this course because I missed too many classes.
The department head was exasperated. "Why is it you? Why didn't you stand up sooner?"
Luo Yongwen scoffed, "You think I didn't want to stand up? I've always wanted to say that the note was mine and had nothing to do with Zhou Chuyu, but Teacher Xu and Teacher Cao convicted Chuyu without saying a word. I couldn't even find a chance to speak. What could I do?"
Luo Yongwen is not afraid of failing his courses, nor is he afraid of being punished by the school.
He was unruly and never paid attention to such worldly matters.
After Luo Yongwen finished speaking, Xu Yiyi felt like she wanted to dig a hole and crawl into it. She was embarrassed and indignant, never expecting Luo Yongwen to speak to her in such a mocking and disdainful tone.
"Luo, you cheated and you still think you're right? If it weren't for you, how could Teacher Cao and I have possibly framed Zhou?"
"Really? Didn't you say you saw Zhou Chuyu cheating with your own eyes? You even wanted Chen Qiufen to testify for you, but now you're saying you're innocent."
"You..." Xu Yiyi was furious, "That's all because you cheated and littered!"
"Who said I cheated?" Luo Yongwen was utterly exasperated. He picked up the slip of paper. "Look for yourself. Isn't what I wrote the content of this exam?"
The department head was dumbfounded; the exam for this course wasn't until tomorrow afternoon!
Writing notes for other subjects during this exam doesn't seem like... cheating?
Luo Yongwen's expression was ambiguous, as if he were about to smile.
"Professor Xu, you can't even see this? Even though you're not from the computer science department, you're a bit too hasty in slandering others."
What a blunder! A huge blunder!
At this moment, it would be a lie for the department head to say he wasn't angry. After all that, there was no cheating at all, yet Xu Yiyi made such a big fool of herself, not only delaying everyone's exams but also damaging Tsinghua University's good reputation for academic excellence. It's really embarrassing!
The department head gave Xu Yiyi a warning look.
Xu Yiyi's face turned pale instantly. She was both angry and innocent, feeling that she had been tricked. She wanted to explain to the department head, but the department head found her annoying and waved her away.
The scrutinizing gazes of her classmates made Xu Yiyi feel utterly ashamed.
After the exam, Xu Yiyi apologized to Cao Gao: "I'm sorry, Teacher Cao, I've made you feel bad..."
Seeing her dejected look, Cao Gao felt a pang of heartache. "How can I blame you? You did it for the sake of justice in your heart, Teacher Xu. Promise me you won't be sad, otherwise, it will break my heart."
Xu Yiyi's eyelids trembled slightly, and her face flushed with embarrassment. "Teacher Cao, you're so kind..."
Cao Gao's heart was melting.
A dumpling shop called Deng Da Niang opened near Tsinghua University, so Chu Yu took Zhang Ying and the others there for a meal. Zhang Ying was surprised that a dumpling shop could be run like this. And indeed, the food was served very quickly, making it a great option for busy employees or students.
Zhang Ying was surprised that Chu Yu had opened such a chain store for her aunt, and she repeatedly said it was great.
"To be honest, if I had your brains, I would have been rich long ago."
Many of the dumpling shops near Tsinghua University are frequented by students. Although college students don't have much money, they are fortunate to receive subsidies these days. Some students from better-off families also want to take their girlfriends out for a nice meal after they start dating.
The only well-renovated restaurant nearby is Deng Da Niang Dumplings, which is convenient for dining. Although the prices aren't cheap, they're still quite reasonable compared to places like Yorkham or Chu Jia Li.
The shop was packed with people, but Chu Yu saw that business was good and the service was good, so she didn't say anything.
The next day, after finishing the exam, Chu Yu's studies for the year were completely over. She packed up her quilts and clothes in the dormitory and put them on the back of her bicycle, preparing to take them home so she could wash and dry them.
I said goodbye to my roommate and just got home when I received a call from Mandarin Cosmetics. They said that the cosmetic formula had been leaked and that Ya Ning Cosmetics had produced an identical sunscreen, launched it earlier than Mandarin, and even claimed that the formula came from Mandarin.
