The Substitute Bride: Indulged by the Obsessive CEO

Chapter 320: This Might Have Been A Misunderstanding

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ji Man came to the teachers’ office and saw that there were many people in the meeting room, including Professor Chen.

She didn’t dare to be presumptuous when Professor Chen was around. She smiled and asked Ms. Wan, “Teacher Wan, whatever Tang Beibei did, she probably didn’t mean it. Please forgive her.”

She pretended to plead for Tang Beibei when she was sure that Tang Beibei had done something wrong.

Fu Jin was so annoyed that he tsk-ed. What a hypocrite!

Professor Chen was an old man who didn’t appreciate Ji Man’s phony behavior. He asked, “What did Tang Beibei do? Are you sure she did it?”

Ji Man got nervous when Professor Chen spoke to her. “I don’t know for sure, but Teacher Wan asked me to come over. Teacher Wan, right?”

Teacher Wan looked at Professor Chen’s cold face and said to Ji Man in a serious voice, “Ji Man, you reported that Tang Beibei cheated in her exams. Please show everyone irrefutable evidence, or you’re falsely accusing her and the school will punish you severely!”

Fu Jin chuckled in his heart. Ji Man’s hypocrisy was way too inexperienced. Teacher Wan was the well-practiced real deal.

Her statement had completely removed herself from this farce and placed all the blame on Ji Man.

Fu Jin looked at Ji Man’s shocked expression and said, “Ji Man, Teacher Wan said that you reported Tang Beibei for cheating. The recording you provided can’t be used as evidence. It’s just conjecture”

Ms. Wan secretly glared at Fu Jin. He should just shut up when no one asked him to speak.

He only said that to drive a wedge between her and Ji Man…

Ji Man was stunned.

No conclusion had been made about Tang Beibei’s cheating yet and she had been accused of slander.

She glared at Tang Beibei. Did Tang Beibei think she could do whatever she liked just because she married a rich second-generation heir?

“She didn’t attend classes before the exams and said that she couldn’t come because she was hospitalized. She also said that it’s good to have some exam techniques and she relied on luck. How else could she have gotten first place?” Tang Beibei found it ridiculous. “I was hospitalized, but it doesn’t mean that I wasn’t studying. I said ‘the rest was luck’ to remain humble.”

“I did my best in my final exams. It’s not my fault that I got first place. Is it my fault that you guys scored too low?”

She was injured, but the other students didn’t do better than her. How could they blame her for their own inadequacies?

II If

“Ms. Wan, I’m reporting you for stealing my things. Investigate, go ahead, and start investigating!”

Teacher Wan’s legs shook in fear when she heard Professor Chen’s angry words and saw his furious face like he was about to tear her apart.

“No. I’ll stop investigating now. It was Ji Man who maliciously slandered Tang Beibei without evidence!”

“Please don’t stop. You won’t be satisfied until you find some evidence.”

Professor Chen found it fresh. He had been in this school for many years and had seen many things. This was the first time he had seen a teacher being fooled by a student with such a ridiculous accusation.

“If you can’t find any evidence, Ji Man can consider going to another school where the top student didn’t get first place without cheating. And you, Ms. Wan, you’ve done a thorough job as a guidance counselor. I’ll tell the provost to pay special attention to you!”

Ji Man panicked and shook her head in fear when Professor Chen said that she could transfer to another school.

“Prof-professor Chen, this might have been a misunderstanding.”

Ms. Wan was also shocked. “Yes, there must be a misunderstanding here. Professor Chen, don’t be angry.”

“The one who should be angry is not me, but Tang Beibei, my mentee who cheated. She cheated in her exams and got caught. How stupid is that? If she wanted to cheat, she should have done it more discreetly. Isn’t she an idiot for being caught?”

Tang Beibei looked at Professor Chen in surprise. She was surprised that he believed and defended her.

“Professor Chen, I didn’t cheat. They have no convincing evidence at all.”

Professor Chen snorted coldly and glared at her with disdain. “If you didn’t cheat, would others criticize you for no reason? There’s no smoke without fire. You must have done something so outstanding that people who aren’t as outstanding didn’t think that you deserve to be so outstanding. That’s why they feel that you didn’t deserve your first place!”

Professor Chen glanced lazily at Fu Jin and ordered, “You, go and call the provost over. I would like to see who dares to bully my students today. Such arrogance! Getting first place means cheating. How refreshing!”

Fu Jin wanted to laugh when he heard Professor Chen yelling at Tang Beibei while pointing his fingers at other people in the room.

He used to think that Professor Chen was a strict and terrifying teacher. But now, he just seemed like an adorable old man.

“Alright, I’ll call him now.”

“Call who?”

The provost walked into the meeting room with a smile. When he saw Professor Chen, the guidance counselor, and Tang Beibei, his smile widened. “Professor Chen, I have something to tell you.”

The provost’s tone was respectful. The way he addressed Professor Chen was like he was addressing an elder.

There are many professors in this university but Professor Chen was the only one in their medical faculty who was a heavyweight that was recognized throughout the country.

When Professor Chen saw the provost, he snorted coldly. “What a coincidence. I have something to tell you too..”
