Semua Bab School Beauty Accuses Our Class of Cheating: Bab 1 - Bab 10

The moment I answered the call, a hand reached over and snatched my phone away. Landon frowned as he looked at me. “I’m not giving you another chance to run to the teacher and complain.”Pearl walked over and hooked her arm around his, looking wronged. “Landon, it’s okay. I’m used to it anyway. Vivian always thought I was a burden because my grades weren’t good enough. It’s only natural that she looks down on me.”My classmates turned their eyes toward me. Their gazes were filled with anger.I looked up at Pearl and gave her a stern look.“If I really looked down on you, then why did I tutor you after school every single day? Why did I stay in the library with you until closing instead of going home on weekends? Why was I happier than you whenever you moved up even one spot on an exam?”Pearl’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes suddenly turned red.“Pearl, I’m a dance student. I only need my academic scores to be good enough. You forced me to grind through practice proble

The expressions of the inspection team’s members changed instantly. Signal transmitters? This was no childish prank. If it was true, it pointed to a large-scale, organized exam fraud. Once exposed, it would become the biggest scandal of this year’s college entrance exam.The exam supervisor immediately called the police and requested that the special police unit conduct a thorough search of the buildings surrounding the exam site.Ms. Zane suddenly grabbed my arm. She looked as though she had suffered a devastating blow, swaying as though she could collapse at any moment. Yet she stared at me desperately. I understood the plea in her eyes.I stepped in front of the inspection team’s supervisor. I did my best to keep my voice steady.“Sir, we really aren’t using exam substitutes. We’re willing to cooperate with the investigation. However, I do have one request.“No matter what happens, please let the bus continue to the exam site first. Once we arrive, the school can provide all

Everyone looked at me in shock. I simply smiled at them.Pearl pointed at me, unable to keep up her sweet act anymore. “What do you mean? What do you mean she doesn’t have to take the exam?”Ms. Zane slowly pushed herself up using the back of a seat. She looked at every single one of them. Her eyes were filled with nothing but disappointment. These were the students she had poured three years of effort into raising.“Vivian received a recommendation to a top science and technology institute three months ago.”Her trembling gaze swept across every face in front of her.“She could have stayed home and rested, but she wanted to walk this final stretch with everyone else. She wanted to ride this bus with all of you and arrive at the exam venue together!”Her eyes turned red, and her voice trembled. “She told me that you were all one class, that all of you should hand in your final answers together and see to the perfect end of your high school life. But what about you all?!” Ms. Za

The police car drove away with its lights flashing. Pearl sat in the backseat, curling herself into a ball.The parents still refused to give up. They surrounded the principal and teachers, unwilling to leave. Some offered cigarettes to curry favor. Others wiped away tears, trying to gain sympathy. They were all asking for the same thing.“Can they be given another chance?”On the other side of the school gate, the media crew who had originally set up their equipment to interview the first student to walk out of the exam hall caught wind of the incident and rushed over in a massive crowd.Their cameras were practically shoved into the students’ faces.“Is it true that your entire class pretended to be exam substitutes?”“Why did you frame your teacher and your class president? Did you have some kind of conflict with them before?”“Do you realize you’ve become the biggest scandal of this year’s college entrance exam? What was your purpose? Were you trying to stand out?”One girl

Landon saw the panic on my face and froze for a moment before finally telling me the whole story.After the results were announced, the entire class cornered Pearl, demanding an explanation. She called everyone to the school rooftop. Then, in front of the entire class, she dropped to her knees.She cried as she begged for forgiveness, then swore she would take responsibility for what she had done. She told everyone that she often worked part-time as a dancer at high-end clubs and had met plenty of successful people through those connections.That day, she brought a man in an expensive suit who claimed to be the CEO of a Fortune 500 company.The man claimed he did not care about a college degree. He told them that with the brains of a top-ranked class, they would be valuable wherever they went. For anyone unwilling to repeat their senior year, he offered them an immediate position at his company, promising executive roles and seven-figure annual salaries.Landon’s voice was dry and
