Chapter 536: Chapter 536: Making a Big Deal Out of It
Zhao Guangran took back the exam papers, how is this possible?
Everyone looked at Teacher Zhao in disbelief, they really couldn’t believe it.
"I really didn’t take them, you can check my desk." Teacher Zhao straightforwardly got up and signaled them to search.
Teacher Zhao’s straightforward action left everyone present unsure of what to do. Searching someone’s desk is not very civilized and is an affront to literacy.
If something is found, it’s fine, but if nothing is found, won’t Teacher Zhao end up constantly bringing it up in the future? Everyone here is a teacher and considers themselves intellectuals; such shameless actions are unacceptable.
Seeing her colleagues reluctant to act, Teacher Wu couldn’t hold back. She believed Teacher Wu wouldn’t lie, especially since she had seen the exam papers created by Zhao Guangran; they were really well done, with particularly skilled use of formulas. If he hadn’t frequently practiced, he couldn’t use them so well.
Now, with the chance to see these papers, should they really pass it up just because of someone’s words? Hmph, that’s not her style.
After all, the situation was already impolite, so there was no need to hide anything. Teacher Wu abruptly pulled on Teacher Zhao. "I don’t believe it."
"Such good materials, you wouldn’t keep them? You said yesterday you were going to the printing room to get them printed." That’s right, almost got tricked by Zhao, she had already prepared at the printing office, how could they not print it? It must be with her.
With Teacher Wu’s words, some teachers who were hesitant to act started to gather around. Yeah, they had already prepared at the printing office; how could they not print it? Are they treating us like fools?
As for the teachers who were still hesitant to act, although they cared a bit about face, they all blocked Teacher Zhao’s way to prevent her from grabbing the papers excitedly once they were found.
Is it really necessary to guard against her like this? Are her words really so untrustworthy?
Fine, since there’s no trust, she’ll just sit a little further away. Teacher Zhao quietly moved to a spot far from her seat, and this action was noted by those searching. If there really were something, could she really sit still?
Could she have moved the papers already? But that wouldn’t make sense either, they had watched the office and only rushed in after seeing Zhao Guangran leave; it shouldn’t have been possible to hide them.
Yet, despite Teacher Zhao’s calmness and the desk being only so big, with so many people searching, even if there were more items, they would have been found by now. So everyone saw that there were no exam papers.
Could it be Zhao Guangran really took the papers away? Geez, where did that kid come from? He doesn’t have any sense! Teacher Zhao is his teacher, why is he being so disrespectful by taking the papers away like that?
Teacher Wu was stunned. "How could there be none, how could there be none."
As she spoke, she looked at Teacher Zhao, wondering if the papers were hidden on her person.
No way, why is she staring at me? Is she planning to search my body? How could she think like that, Teacher Zhao was furious. "Is it not enough to search my desk, do you plan to search my body? Are you treating me like a criminal?"
"What exactly did I do wrong? I guess I need to talk to the principal. Is it okay to just rush in and search whenever you think there’s a problem with a teacher?"
Previously, she wasn’t angry because she knew there was nothing to find, so let them search if they wanted. She didn’t expect that by giving an inch, they would take a mile. It’s really over the top.
Teacher Zhao marched angrily to the office door, "I’m going to talk to the principal, the event is already over, why does it still remind me of the old days."
Those present were already feeling awkward, especially upon hearing that she was going to the principal. They panicked. Don’t be fooled by the principal’s usual good-natured image; he also has a temper.
He can’t tolerate things that remind him of the past, especially if similar things happen again. He won’t take it lightly, not even Teacher Wu could calm the situation then.
If not even Teacher Wu could handle it, how could they? They have no backing. One by one, they looked to Teacher Wu, wondering if she shouldn’t find a way out of the situation she caused?
Teacher Wu was indeed anxious, but she knew she couldn’t panic. If she panicked, she would lose all her standing in the school, especially if she ended up being suppressed by Teacher Zhao’s class. Even if she left the school, it would feel like leaving in disgrace.
At this moment, Teacher Wu truly regretted not listening to her husband who suggested she transfer sooner. Now it’s bad; she won’t even leave with a brilliant achievement but rather praying not to leave in disgrace.
No, the exam papers must be with her, otherwise, she wouldn’t behave like this. "Why are you getting so nervous then? If you aren’t nervous, why would you run to the principal? Are you trying to take this opportunity to secure the papers?"
"Then let’s go together, right in front of the principal, and clear things up. Also, Wu, you need to explain your actions. Just because you have some backing doesn’t mean anything." Teacher Zhao decided, even if it meant losing face, she wanted to strike down Teacher Wu, rendering her unable to recover.
Teacher Wu knew it would not end well for her if she went over. But if she didn’t go, she would be seen as incompetent. She had just gathered so many people to intimidate Teacher Zhao, only to be soon suppressed by her. What to do, what to do?
The scene had suddenly become so tense, some didn’t even know what to say. But they couldn’t let Zhao and Wu blow the matter up, so they began to try to persuade them, urging Wu to back down a little.
They realized that the matter was between Wu and Zhao all along, what were they involving themselves for? Instead of jumping in, better to stand aside and watch.
Teacher Wu considered retreating, since people were already speaking up to mediate and she had a way to back down gracefully. But seeing Teacher Zhao standing quietly at the door, her anger surged.
She couldn’t let it go like this. If she gave up, she would have to make way for Zhao in disgrace. "Fine, let’s go together to the principal."
She didn’t believe she would lose. Even if there were some exercise papers, who knows if they were of any good? Even if they were good, could Zhao’s students really be guaranteed to be smart?
"Okay." Teacher Zhao certainly wouldn’t back down. Zhao Guangran was already working his hardest to improve everyone’s grades, as a homeroom teacher, she couldn’t just back down.
Ah, really? No way. Teachers present, whether neutral or siding with either party, were dumbfounded. Originally, it was just internal squabbling, which might have been fine, but why take it to Principal Zhuge? When it escalates like that, none will have good outcomes.
However, whatever their reluctance, they couldn’t prevent Wu and Zhao from going. A few teachers had no choice but to follow, intending to do some explaining.
