“Qian Gumeng and Zhou Jie, you’ve already seen the surveillance video.” Zheng Anyang stopped smiling. “Since it’s already proven that Ye Leng’an didn’t cheat, then you are slandering your classmates. Your punishment will be announced at the school meeting next Monday.”

“No, Principal, I…” Zhou Jie was very anxious and looked like she was about to cry. “I’m not…”

She did not expect such an outcome. However, she knew that once this punishment was recorded in her file, it would be a stain and would have a great impact on her future.

“Principal, Ye Leng’an must have cheated. She knew the answers in advance.” Even after seeing the surveillance video, Qian Gumeng still refused to believe that Ye Leng’an didn’t cheat. She looked at Zheng Anyang with steady eyes. “Principal, Ye Leng’an only stayed in the examination hall for half an hour, but she got first place. Moreover, when she was doing the questions, she wrote down the answers without thinking. She must have known the answers in advance.”

This was a reasonable doubt. While the others were racking their brains, Ye Leng’an only took a glance at the question and started writing the answer. Even the math teachers in the school probably couldn’t do this! Also, getting first place in half an hour, wasn’t this nonsense?

Although she didn’t know how Ye Leng’an managed to get the answers, she was even more certain that Ye Leng’an had cheated.

Zhou Jie’s eyes lit up when she heard Qian Gumeng’s suspicion.

Zheng Anyang took a glance at Qian Tong as if he wasn’t surprised that Qian Gumeng had such doubts.

Qian Tong immediately understood what Zheng Anyang meant. He turned around and walked over to the desk, picking up the paper they had just been looking at. In addition, he took another piece of paper from a corner of the table.

Zheng Anyang took the papers and placed them on the small coffee table in front of Qian Gumeng and Zhou Jie. “Take a look. This is Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet. The other one is the standard answers for this qualifier. Originally, I planned to use Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet as a model for everyone. Since you guys are suspicious now, you can watch it first! After you’re done, you’ll know if Ye Leng’an cheated or not.”

Zheng Anyang was calm, but it made Qian Gumeng and Zhou Jie’s hearts sink again. They looked at the papers placed not far away from them. They were clearly only two pieces of paper, but at this moment, they seemed to weigh a thousand pounds in their eyes.

After a long time, Qian Gumeng was the first to pick up Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet and the standard answers and began to read them. Then, she realized that many of the answers on Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet were different from the standard ones. Although the result was the same, the process was very different. Did this mean that the teacher had made a mistake when marking the papers?

At this moment, she completely forgot that Zheng Anyang and Qian Tong had been discussing this paper just now, and she was completely immersed in her own discovery, “Principal, Ye Lengan’s solving steps were wrong. Although the answer was the same, some steps were different. This meant that she had cheated. She only remembered the answers but not the steps.”

Zhou Jie was also very excited to hear that. She immediately took the answer sheet from Qian Gumeng’s hand and began to read it. In the end, she had the same discovery as Qian Gumeng.

Qian Gumeng looked at Zheng Anyang and said sternly, “Principal, I don’t know where Ye Leng’an got the test questions and answers. I think we should investigate this properly. Now, it is not just a matter of cheating. It might also involve the leaks of examination papers.”

Zhou Jie nodded vigorously. “Principal, I found myself in agreement with Qian Gumeng. I think the school should give merciless punishment to such behavior.”

Qian Tong looked at the two students in front of him as if they were fools. Only now did he know that there were people who were so senseless. Didn’t they see that he and the principal were discussing Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet? If there really was a problem, why would they be willing to publicize it to all the students and use it as a model?

Zheng Anyang took back Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet and said, “That’s right. Ye Leng’an’s answer sheet has many steps that are different from the standard answers. However, you have to know that these are math questions. There are many ways to answer a question, and the steps can also be different. I know that you don’t understand these steps. However, it doesn’t mean that it is wrong just because you don’t understand it..”
