Chapter 9 — On Le

Teacher Co said: "I just forced him to write his own letter." Finally, Luc Hoai Can spoke up: "Nhuoc Duong, please write." Lam Nhuoc Duong looked at him: "Hoai Can, don't you even believe me?" He avoided her eyes. I looked at this scene and suddenly no longer had the energy to watch the drama. There was a knock on the door, and Mr. Khau walked in, holding a transparent bag in his hand. "The dormitory manager found this in the trash." In the bag was a crumpled piece of paper, put together half a page of text could be seen. On it was written: Tomorrow's practice test, On Le hid it. Hua Kieu stopped by: "Isn't this a denunciation letter?" Teacher Khau said: "I compared the writing, it's very similar to the writing in today's class exercise by Lam Nhuoc Duong." Lam Nhuoc Duong suddenly stood up: "You all help her! What benefits does her family give you?" As soon as this sentence was uttered, the meeting room was completely silent. Teacher Co's face darkened: "I'll say it again." Teacher Chu was also panicked: "Nhuoc Duong, don't talk nonsense." Lam Nhuoc Duong cried and pointed at me: "Before, it was obvious that she didn't know anything. Suddenly, there were so many people coming to protect her. If it weren't for spending money, what would it be? Her father only opened a small noodle shop, so how could he invite teachers?" I said nothing. Hua Kieu scolded her: "You stole things and then slandered her, but you still blame others for investigating?" Luc Hoai Can said in a low voice: "Lin Nhuoc Duong, that's enough." She turned her head to look at him: "You also helped her? Have you forgotten how she used money to humiliate you?" Luc Hoai Can's hand pressed on the table, his knuckles turned white, then released again. Teacher Co picked up the torn piece of paper: "You don't need to participate in the mock exam tomorrow. Wait for the school to handle it." Lam Nhuoc Duong did not dare to believe: "Based on what?" "Based on the fact that I was suspected of slandering a classmate." Teacher Co looked at Teacher Chu. “Teacher Chu, you also withdraw from the handling.” Teacher Chu's face was unsightly: “I'm the teacher leading the team.” “So we have to avoid it even more.” Master Co said. "If a teacher can't see the victim clearly, then don't sit in the exam room." Mr. Chu's lips moved a few times, and in the end he only squeezed out one sentence: "I will explain to the school." When Lam Nhuoc Duong was taken away, passing me, her voice was very soft. "On Le, don't be complacent." I looked at her: "You're late for saying this." She stopped. I said: "I didn't want to be proud, I just wanted you to return my things." She asked: "What stuff?" "My notes, my notes, my purity was trampled on by you all." Luc Hoai Can stood behind, the blood on his face gradually draining away. The comments appeared again but were more sparse than before. 【The female lead didn't really overturn the car, right?】 【No way, she's the female lead.】 【The male lead, wake up quickly, don't be fooled by the supporting female.】 I looked at those words, and for the first time felt that they were also very noisy. Teacher Co handed my bag back to me: "On Le, tomorrow you will take the test normally." I took it: "What about Lam Nhuoc Duong?" "Pause." I nodded. As he walked out of the meeting room, Luc Hoai Can chased after him. "On Le." I stopped. He was silent for a few seconds: "I didn't know she would do that." I said: "There's a lot you don't know." "I admit, she was wrong about today." "Today?" He choked up. I looked at him: "Notes are not today, scratch papers are not today, exam performance is not today." As if something was blocking his throat, he said in a low voice: "I'll tell her to apologize." "How can you force her to apologize?" I asked. “You're not her victim.” He stood under the hallway light, still holding the clean error notebook in his hand. Before, I felt like everything he did was clean, but now I just see that every page is filled with calculations. I turned back to the dormitory. Hua Kieu chased

followed, lowering his voice: "It's really nice to be happy, but I keep feeling that Lam Nhuoc Duong won't stop." “She will,” I said. Hua Kieu was stunned: "How did you know?" I pushed open the dormitory door and saw a new piece of paper on the table. There is only one sentence on the paper. On Le, if you dare to continue taking the exam, your father's small noodle shop will not be able to open tomorrow. The next morning, dad carried a thermos and appeared in front of the Children's Palace gate. Over the apron, he wore an old shirt, his hair was blown by the wind, and in his hand was a stack of menus. As soon as I looked at him, I knew something was going on. "Dad, what happened in the shop?" He stuffed the thermos for me: "Nothing, I'll cook you some soup. Beef bones, some salt." Hua Kieu poked her head out from behind me: "Uncle, your face doesn't look good." Dad smiled: "Children, don't look around. Have you had breakfast yet? I also brought you dumplings." I stared at his sleeve, there was a torn thread there. "Who came to the shop to cause trouble?" Dad pretended to be stupid: "No way." I said: “Dad.” He sighed: "Some parents said my daughter cheated outside and also spoiled her classmates. Someone posted a paper in front of the shop door, the neighbors stood watching. Dad tore it up." Hua Kieu was so angry that he scolded someone: "It must be Lam Nhuoc Duong's uncle!" Dad quickly waved his hand: "Don't affect the exam. Le Le, just take the exam, I can handle it here." I asked: "Have you reported to the police yet?"
