Are these two students crazy? How dare they bet with me, the principal!
"Teacher Wang, you are becoming more and more capable. The children you taught are so promising!" The principal said to the English teacher angrily.
Before the English teacher could even begin to explain, Su Nan asked, "Principal, there's no need to be angry. There's no definitive answer to who's right or wrong in this matter, and we're not unreasonable people. Just tell us if you're willing to hear how we can prove our innocence!"
"Well, just say it, I'll see if you can make a hole in the sky with your mouth." The principal said with a gloomy face.
"Before that, I have a condition. If you don't agree to what I say, I will go to the police station and sue the school!" Su Nan was really angry this time, and even his tone was full of ruthlessness.
Seeing this, the English teacher was shocked: Does Su Nan really not want to study at Huaqing University?
It was already great that the principal was willing to listen to Su Nan's explanation. How could she dare to make so many demands?
The principal saw that Su Nan was not joking, so he asked, "What are the conditions?"
"If we can prove our innocence, you will find out the mastermind behind this incident and ask us to apologize." Su Nan put forward his conditions with a dark face.
Why does this girl speak so confidently? Could it be that I have wronged them in this matter?
The principal continued in a slightly gentler tone, "No problem. As long as you can prove your and Chen Jie's innocence, I will tell you the name of the person behind this and make him apologize to you."
The principal then spoke again, stating his own conditions: "Don't be too happy yet. If you can't prove your innocence, both of you, including Teacher Wang, will be kicked out of Huaqing University."
This old guy is really becoming more and more sinister. He made a bet with two kids, so why did he even put his own life on the line?
Su Nan gave the English teacher a reassuring look and then promised, "No problem. We'll put forward a condition, and the principal has also put forward a condition. This is fair and reasonable."
The English teacher had a bitter face and used my former love as a bet. He said that this was fair and reasonable. Shouldn't you ask me, an innocent person who was caught in the crossfire, whether I felt it was fair and reasonable?
"Okay, stop talking about those useless things. If you have something to say, just say it quickly. I don't have time to play house with you." The principal urged with an unhappy look on his face.
"Principal, you can give us two a new set of questions, and we will answer them in your office without leaving your and other teachers' eyes. What do you think?" Su Nan felt that she and Chen Jie had achieved their high grades based on their own strength. No matter how tricky the questions the principal gave them, they would be able to pass them.
The principal frowned, thinking, "Is this guy trying to be funny? How can I have the time to give them questions? These people are simply being unreasonable."
Seeing that the principal was unwilling to agree to the simplest method he had come up with, Su Nan urged him, "Principal, you don't want to agree, right? If that's the case, then please find the evidence and show it to us. Otherwise, I will..."
The principal interrupted Su Nan and said, "You are just being unreasonable."
"Principal, you have to understand this. If you don't agree to my request, Huaqing University and you will lose face. Are the three of us, Teacher Wang, Chen Jie, and I, combined, less important than your precious time?"
The principal was finally persuaded by Su Nan. He glared at her angrily and waved his hand, saying, "Just do what you need to do. Come to my office on time at 9:30 tomorrow morning, or you will be late."
The three of them left the principal's office contentedly, and the English teacher quickly followed Su Nan and Chen Jie to their dormitory.
"I say, you two are really too bold to threaten the principal. Even though I know you have good grades, he is still capable of gathering the brainpower of all the teachers and giving you a set of unique and difficult problems." Teacher Wang reminded the two not to take it lightly.
Su Nan and Chen Jie didn't care about the difficult questions posed by the principal. After all, no matter what, he would not posed some worldly problems that were beyond their ability.
"Teacher Wang, don't worry. With our strength, no matter what questions he asks, we won't be stumped. This time, I want to see who is maliciously framing us behind the scenes!" Su Nan said excitedly.
The next morning at 9:30, the two arrived at the principal's office as scheduled. It was then that a teacher spoke up, "Principal, I think we should get rid of these two troublemakers, lest they come up with any unique cheating methods."
The principal thought the teacher's words made sense, so he kept Su Nan in his office, while Chen Jie was taken away by the dean of studies.
An hour and a half later, the two walked out of their respective examination rooms with a look of ease, then smiled at each other and walked hand in hand to their dormitories.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the test results of Su Nan and Chen Jie came out. They both scored several points higher than in the actual exam. Although the principal lost the bet, he was relieved that there were two more geniuses in the school.
The principal then used a loudspeaker to help Su Nan and Chen Jie clarify the misunderstanding, and then posted their test papers on the school bulletin board.
Su Nan's action directly slapped everyone in the face, and those who falsely accused Su Nan were like jumping clowns at this moment.
"Su Nan, Chen Jie, congratulations on finally getting rid of the nightmare of rumors. Now I understand why you, Su Nan, made a bet with the principal. With the principal and the dean of studies guaranteeing you, I don't think anyone would dare to question your test results." Teacher Wang was now very proud and had earned a lot of face in front of the principal.
Su Nan took Chen Jie's hand and said goodbye to Teacher Wang with a smile. Then he said to Chen Jie, "Now, let's go to the principal's office and see if he has fulfilled his promise to us!"
Chen Jie was at a loss for words and said, "Look at you, you look like a shrewd little man. What's the difference between you and them?"
Su Nan pouted and thought a little aggrievedly: Why is this person like this?
If she hadn't found a way to clear their names and keep Chen Jie's scholarship, she wouldn't know how she would have lived for the next three and a half years. This guy wanted to kill the donkey after the mill had been unloaded, and he didn't even dare to compare her with those despicable villains.
Chen Jie knew that Su Nan was teasing her on purpose, so she quickly pulled her arm and shook it, saying, "I was just joking with you, why are you so angry?"
