I was so desperate that I won the first place in the class in physics again. I lost again by one point in physics class. I don’t need to say that he was full of anger.

It is not a good sign to post physics scores first! I even got the additional questions correctly, and finally settled them, and I got the full mark! There is no second one in the whole school year!

Before the results of the Chinese class were released later, the class monitor walked over with a serious look on his face and asked me to go to the principal's office.

"Principal's Office? What are you going to the Principal's Office?"

I'm a frightened bird.

"I don't know either, but looking at your expression, you probably didn't do good deeds, right?"

"If you didn't do good deeds, it should be that the director of the teaching staff came to me, right? Why are you involved in the principal's level? "

"Don't ask me, just ask yourself!" The squad leader's gaze swept across my face quickly, making me even more uneasy.

To be honest, if the director or vice principal came to me, I wouldn't be so trembling. They were both psychopathic and the ones were the ones I despise the most. If they dared to scold me, I would definitely talk back to them. Even if they were punished, they would use various fallacies to choke them out of Taiwan.

But this time the old principal looked for me, the old principal who was not a few hairs left on his head, was usually crazy and talked to students with no big or small things... This person I have always respected, what is the reason for now?

Seeing that I was hesitant and unable to move, the class monitor urged: "Why aren't you going quickly? Are you afraid to go to the principal's office?"

Then his tone calmed down slightly: "Have you never been there? Then I'll accompany you, follow me."

I followed the class monitor in my heart and came outside the mahogany door of the principal's office.

Shusha knocked politely on the door and asked, "Principal, are you here? We are students from the second grade of junior high school (3)..."

"Come in, the door is not locked." The old principal laughed twice every time he said a few words. The "roaring" laughter was like Santa Claus in American movies.

After Shusha pushed me in, she introduced me to the old principal: "He is the classmate Ye Lin you are looking for."

The old principal behind the desk stared at me with all his attention, and I was so hot that I felt my face was filled with fever when I was staring at him.

"If nothing happens, I'll leave first." Shusha, who completed her mission, said goodbye to the old principal, but before closing the door tightly, she showed a slight pleading look, "That... Principal, he won't be fired, right?"

It is obviously referring to me, why isn’t this solemn atmosphere my illusion? Am I almost on the verge of being expelled from school?

"It's okay, it's okay," the old principal waved his hand to relieve Shusha. He always smiled on his face, "I just want to talk to Ye Lin about his ideals, the future, and life. Go back and say hello to you Teacher Yu for me!"

Shusha nodded slightly, closed the door and left.

Before leaving, I shook my eyes at me, probably because I wanted me to honestly admit my mistakes, make less troubles, and strive for leniency.

The old principal asked me to pull a chair over and sit down, and then we both met face to face through the office desk. So close, I could even see the age spots on the principal's face clearly.

"Well, Ye Lin, I heard that you did a good job in this midterm exam..."

Here, it is indeed a midterm exam problem! My cheating must have been discovered! At least all the scores must be cancelled, and then the criticism will be recorded?

Seeing that I was getting more and more nervous, the old principal was still talking and laughing.

"Haha, I am actually willing to believe in the motivation of male students. You have achieved good results through hard work, so you should really praise me!"

Is this a mocking me? I am definitely a mocking me! I couldn't even raise my head in shame.

The old principal changed the topic: "It's a pity that the examination style and discipline of the fourth examination room are poor, and there are some people..."

Without thinking, the old principal must have wanted to say "someone copied"!

Unexpectedly, the old principal said: "Someone sleeps in the exam room, and the drooling makes the test papers dirty, so they have no results."

Huh? Who is this talking about? Are you talking about Li Erlang who snored in the exam room?

The old principal then showed a very regretful expression, "Student Ye Lin, have you been sleeping too?"

"Eh?" I didn't react for a moment.

"You have also gone to bed in the three exams of Chinese, English and politics, right?"

Seeing that I was still stunned, the old principal grabbed the small wooden fish with the word "Fu" next to him and slapped hard as a gavel.

"Acknowledge you're going to bed!"

I shrank my neck and quickly repeated, "I'm going to bed."

"Well, that's right..." The old principal took a sip of the green tea in the porcelain tea cup. Perhaps because the tea had already cooled down, he frowned after drinking it.

"Because you sleep and drool, your three subjects have been exhausted. No matter how good you answer, you can only be remembered as zero points - do you have any objection?"

I suddenly understood in my heart that the school had already confirmed that my grades in these three subjects were plagiarized, but I was struggling to fail to catch the current situation. When I plagiarized, I was a little clever and did not reach the same level as Xiaoqin, so the old principal wanted to force me to cancel my grades myself!

"That... did I drool so much?"

Although the score was cancelled was not unfair, I still had some of my own efforts in these three papers, such as Chinese composition, and my dad got three zero-point test papers in a row at the parent-teacher meeting. Isn’t it a bit cruel?

"Hey, you still dare to bargain?" The old principal and I widened his eyes.

Because the school did not have any real evidence of my plagiarism, my courage began to grow.

"Well, Principal, I admit I fell asleep, but saliva... I only spent half of the paper?"

"Nonsense! It took at least 3/4!"

"Principal, let's take a step back, even if it's 2/3!"

"2/3? Are you referring to the part that has been made or the part that has not been made?"

"Of course it's the flower part..."

"Then your paper will only have 1/3 of the score, and you will not be able to match the score no matter what!"

"Well... it's nothing if I can't get the qualifiers, I just hope I won't give zero points." I scratched the back of my head, looking very embarrassed, "Although my grades are poor, I haven't scored zero points yet."

The old principal grinned and sneered, "You are cruel! Go back to the class! Don't do this next time!"

I nodded and stood up from the chair.

My hand just fell on the door handle of the office, and the old principal asked behind me:

"Do you know why, you only slept in these three subjects?"

I don’t know! You insisted that I sleep! Some people in China were killed by suicide and hid and hiding, and those who were sleeping like me! Didn’t you just find out that I cheated and there was no evidence, so I hope I will admit it on my own initiative?

"Well, because I, the old principal, I think you are not stupid."

"ah?"

"In this math, physics and chemistry exam, the teachers deliberately made the questions difficult, but you actually got a very good score and haven't been sleeping..."

Don’t sleep all the time! Just say that the word plagiarism is not inconsistent!

"So, this time we're going to make a big deal, and don't check thoroughly whether you're suspicious of stealing questions as some people said... Can you take your own strength to get better next time?"

I felt a little warm in my heart, but I said, "Why should I do that kind of boring thing?"

The old principal held ten fingers together, with a kind look, "Even for my face... I bet with the vice principal that during the final exam, the three subjects of mathematics, physics and chemistry will still exceed the average score of the same year group. If I win, he will lose to me a can of West Lake Longjing."

I didn't ask what the old principal would lose to the vice principal if he lost a bet.

It’s just that mathematics, physics and chemistry exceed the average score, and the old principal will not lose. Just relying on the physics lesson, it’s almost certain to achieve this goal.

After leaving the principal's office, I calculated the gains and losses this time.

In fact, even if Chinese, English, and politics are given points at 1/3, it still exceeds the best score I can get.

Fortunately, at least I did much better than last semester. Dad shouldn't be particularly picky, right?

It turns out that I was wrong, and my grades were not the focus at all.
Chapter completed!
