Chapter 277 - 277 Cheating

277 Cheating

Xiang Jun frowned. This was the first time he had seen someone cheating in the Rong City Cup.

The news of Shen Xi, a student from Zhuo Ying High School, cheating at the Rong City Cup spread like wildfire.

Xue Li looked at the message on his phone and rushed into the meeting room of Guan Lei and Li Zhe in a panic.

For the past few days, Li Zhe had been pulling the young master to all kinds of meetings. He hadn’t seen Shen Xi for a few days. If he knew that something had happened to Ms. Shen Xi, he would probably turn Rong City upside down.

!!

“Young master, there’s bad news! Something happened to Ms. Shen Xi!” Xue Li pushed the door open and shouted in Guan Lei’s direction anxiously.

Li Zhe’s brows furrowed in displeasure as he berated, “Can’t you see we’re in a meeting? What…”

Before Li Zhe could finish, Guan Lei suddenly stood up and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong with Shen Xi?”

Xue Li immediately showed the message to Guan Lei.

When Guan Lei saw the painting appraisal report, he felt terrible. He had bought the paintings from Teacher Shen and sent them to his grandfather.

Shen Xi and Teacher Shen’s paintings were drawn by the same person. Based on this logic, did Shen Xi also get Teacher Shen to be the ghost drawer?

Guan Lei was shocked by his deduction.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Guan Lei’s mind. Teacher Shen’s surname was Shen! Shen Xi’s surname was also Shen! Could Teacher Shen be Shen Xi?

Guan Lei immediately called Li Si. As soon as the other side picked up, Guan Lei immediately asked, “Li Si, is Shen Xi Teacher Shen?”

Li Si didn’t know why Guan Lei was asking him in such an anxious tone, but he still answered truthfully, “Yup! What’s wrong? Is there a problem with the drawing she gave you?”

‘F*ck!’ Guan Lei cursed under his breath and hung up the phone. Without looking back, he said to Xue Li, “Let’s go!”

Xue Li followed closely behind Guan Lei. The two of them left the meeting room, leaving Li Zhe, who was still in a daze.

Li Zhe touched his chin and said to himself, “Teacher Shen? Seeing how nervous Guan Lei was, could it be that this kid had fallen for the teacher? He’s quite bold to have taken a fancy to the teacher at such a young age!”

Li Zhe directly ran to the room next door and knocked on Meng Yu’s door. He asked with a gossipy look, “Is your young master in love? Did he fall in love with his teacher? How old is that Teacher Shen?”

Meng Yu felt that Li Zhe’s question was ridiculous. “What are you talking about? What Teacher Shen?”

Li Zhe said in surprise, “There’s actually something you don’t know! Come, I’ll tell you. Your young master took a fancy to his teacher. She’s probably quite old…”

As Li Zhe spoke, he pulled Meng Yu into the room in a grand manner, not forgetting to close the door with his foot.

At that moment, Shen Xi, who was still on stage, sighed and said to the panel of judges, “I can’t prove that the paintings in the photos were created by me, but I can prove that I created my work for this competition.”

Jiang Xue walked in front of Shen Xi and leaned close to her ear, whispering, “Shen Xi, you have to think clearly. If you prove that you created your work, that means you’re saying that the young master of Beijing stole your work. Aren’t you afraid of revenge?”

Shen Xi tilted her head and replied fearlessly, “So what? I’m just trying to prove myself. I believe that the descendants of the great family would not be unreasonable.”

Shen Xi refused to admit defeat. Jiang Xue looked at her and continued to threaten her, “You should think about your parents. If you embarrass that person, you can just wait to be taught a lesson! Don’t even think about having an easy time!”

Looking at the fearless Shen Xi, Jiang Xue felt extremely uncomfortable. She wanted to intimidate Shen Xi and make her admit that she cheated. That way, Shen Xi’s ranking would be lower than hers and she would win.

Jiang Xue knew that if she asked Shen Xi to prove that the young master had stolen her work, she would be retaliated against. But if that was the case, it would mean that Shen Xi had won the bet. As the loser, it would be too embarrassing for her to reflect on herself on the rostrum!

However, it was obvious that Shen Xi didn’t want to follow Jiang Xue’s plan.
