Chapter 361 - Fleeing in Panic

When the form teacher heard the class belle’s words, her face darkened. She did not want to bring up this matter, so why was there always ignorant people who had to bring it up? She answered with some hesitation,

“Su Jin’s test papers have been marked and scored. The teachers are looking at it. They will probably send them back in the afternoon.”

She was a little comfortable despite saying that. At the moment, only the teachers knew about Su Jin’s test papers but she couldn’t mention anything yet because there’s a high chance that the outcome was different.

When Zhang De heard this, he studied the form teacher’s expression. He didn’t believe what she said. It’s a good thing if someone got first place in the entire school, so why was the form teacher hesitating? He questioned immediately,

“Teacher, if that’s the case, there should be a ranking, right?”

As soon as he said this, everyone realized that even if they couldn’t see Su Jin’s papers now, there should still be a ranking, right? This wasn’t a small matter because it would determine if they would be eating dirt in future. The students started making noise.

“That’s right. Exactly what’s her ranking? This affects our future!”

The form teacher saw the noisy crowd and massaged her temples. She knew that this would happen but she couldn’t say anything yet because nothing had been decided and there might be a turning point. She said impatiently,

“Alright, stop the noise. I will let everyone know the outcome in two days. Not now.”

A crafty look appeared on Lin Lianlian’s face when she heard this. Did Su Jin perform poorly, and the teachers were trying to protect her? That shouldn’t be the case though. However, the situation was as such now and she wanted to embarrass Su Jin. So, Lin Lianlian said indignantly,

“Why not? Did that piece of trash Su Jin bribe you? She told you not to announce her total score and ranking? That way, she wouldn’t have lost the bet? How much money did that piece of trash give you?”

The form teacher’s expression turned uglier when she heard this. How could her students accuse her of accepting a bribe? Anger rose in her heart as she looked at Lin Lianlian and said coldly,

“Don’t talk nonsense. Why would I do that?”

Su Jin also looked at the form teacher in confusion. She hadn’t done anything, but why didn’t the form teacher announce her ranking? What’s happening now would only cause further misunderstanding. So, Su Jin said,

“Teacher, even if the papers were still with the other teachers, the ranking should be ready, right?”

When the form teacher heard Su Jin’s words, her head hurt even more. Why was this girl asking as well? She looked at the crowd and pretended she had other things to do, picked up her books and started walking out as she explained,

“I have other things to do. I’ll tell you tomorrow during homeroom. Class dismissed.”

After saying that, the form teacher sped out like she was being chased by a monster. It’s better for her to hurry home and claim her inheritance. Otherwise, she really couldn’t afford to pay the money when Su Jin lost.

This matter couldn’t be blamed on Su Jin. If she hadn’t said too much back then and asked Su Jin to teach everyone to study hard, Su Jin wouldn’t have been besieged and the bet wouldn’t have happened. In order to not let Su Jin face a huge debt alone, she could only bear the pain, leave the education industry and return home to inherit the family fortune.

Su Jin looked at the fleeing form teacher in surprise. She didn’t know what kind of urgent matter the form teacher had. Could it be a family emergency? She shouldn’t be so anxious, right? It was too suspicious.

Everyone was also very puzzled when they saw the form teacher’s behavior. The form teacher had taught them for years and she was usually calm. Why would she be different all of a sudden and ran away in panic?

The second period was Zhang Mingming’s class. Zhang Mingming walked in triumphantly and placed his books on the podium. He had no intention to teach at all. He looked at Su Jin smugly and asked doubtingly,

“Su Jin? Why are you still in class?”

Su Jin was stunned. What did he mean by still in class? Today was a normal school day. Where could she be if she wasn’t in class? Should she be at home sleeping? She looked at Zhang Mingming in confusion and asked,n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Then where should I be?”

Zhang Mingming looked at Su Jin mockingly when he heard this. Could it be that this piece of trash didn’t know?
