Chapter 1 — Reliving Before the University Exam, I Tear Up the Conspiracy to Steal Direct Admissions
Reliving exactly one week before the university entrance exam, the first thing I did was check out of the dormitory and immediately buy a ticket to a small town more than three thousand kilometers away. Because in my previous life, I was admitted directly to Hai Thanh University, so I should have stayed home to take my grandmother to treatment. However, my roommate, Hua Niem Niem, called again, sobbing, saying that she had left her exam notice in the dormitory, begging me to help her bring it to the exam site. Because I was soft-hearted, I went back to school to get it for her. Unexpectedly, there was a traffic accident in the middle of the road, causing serious traffic congestion. I was forty minutes late, causing her to miss the Literature exam. Hua Niem Niem completely collapsed, then blamed all the blame on me. Before I could explain, her mother grabbed my backpack strap, pointed it straight at me, and scolded me.
"To Duong, it's obvious that you were directly recruited, why did you coincidentally return to school at such a good time?"
"Surely you were afraid that my daughter would do better in the exam so you deliberately hid her exam notice!"
"If it weren't for you hiding it, why would you bring it in for help?"
"Today I will show everyone your cruel face!"
After that, I was ridiculed all over social networks and cursed to the point that I didn't dare step out the door. Even my grandmother who was in the hospital had red paint splashed right in front of her hospital bed. In the end, a man calling himself "a man of heaven" drove his car straight into me in front of the hospital gate. When I opened my eyes again... I returned exactly one week before the university entrance exam. I pushed open the dorm room door and started packing all my luggage. The dormitory manager followed behind, holding an application to leave the school in her hand.
"To Duong, don't you really want to stay a few more days? You're about to take the university entrance exam."
I shook my head.
"No, no. I've been directly recruited, there's no point in staying."
I opened the wardrobe and put each outfit in the suitcase one by one. In the room, Hua Niem Niem and her mother were both present. Hua's mother leaned against her daughter's bed. As soon as she saw me, she smirked.
"Oh my, isn't this the talented woman To Duong? She just got hired and hastily left?"
I didn't answer and continued to clean the desk. She was sarcastic again.
"That's right. Someone like you who relies on luck to get a straight admission position is not like my family's Niem Niem. She has to rely on her strength to get into a prestigious university. The last few days are as precious as gold, you can't waste even a second."
Hua Niem Niem still bowed her head to write, the tip of the pen scratching the paper with a screeching sound.
"Mom, stop talking. You make me not concentrate on solving the problem."
Hua's mother's voice immediately softened.
"Okay, okay, I won't say any more. Just keep your cool. Our whole family's future depends on you."
I put the last error notebook in my suitcase and zipped it up. The sound of the suitcase lock "clicking" rang out. Hua Niem Niem immediately raised her head.
"To Duong, can't you be more gentle? Can't you see I'm revising? The atmosphere in the room is usually very good, but you making a fuss like this has messed up my state."
I just looked at her, not saying a word. Mother Hua immediately jumped up, her finger almost pointing straight at my face.
"Did you hear that? My daughter is about to take the university entrance exam, this is the decision of her whole life. You already have a school to study, don't stand here getting entangled in it, affecting your future." my daughter's development."
I put my suitcase up and turned to the dormitory manager.
"Miss, I've finished cleaning up. Please help me check, I'll go through the procedures to leave school."
The manager nodded.
"Okay, let me take a look."
Hua's mother snorted coldly.
"Display everything cleanly. Once you've finished cleaning up, go away quickly, don't take my daughter's good place."
Having finished speaking, she stepped forward to block the door.
"Wait."
I stopped and calmly looked at her.
"Your suitcase, I have to check."
The dormitory manager frowned.
"Hua's parents, this is not appropriate. All items in the suitcase are To Duong's personal property."
But Hua's mother didn't even bother to look at the manager. Her eyes were fixed on my suitcase.
"Who knows if his hands and feet are clean or not? My family's Niem Niem is about to take the university entrance exam. From the pen on the desk, the documents by the bedside to the bag containing exam notices, which thing is not important? If he accidentally took something away and made my daughter lose her spirit, would she be able to compensate?"
I didn't get angry at all, on the contrary, I took out my phone. First, I told the dormitory manager:
"You heard me clearly. Hua Niem Niem's parents are suspecting her of stealing."
After that, I called the homeroom teacher.
"Master Chu, my name is To Duong. I am currently completing procedures to leave school in room 406. Hua Niem Niem's parents suspect that I took their belongings and asked to check my luggage. To prove my innocence, please come and testify for me."
Hanging up, I immediately turned on the camera. Hua's mother's face changed.
"What are you filming? Are you guilty? Just a little check, okay?"
I pointed the lens towards the suitcase and her hand.
"Miss Hua, from now on I will record everything. It's not aimed at you, but to make things clear and at the same time protect yourself."
Only then did Hua Niem Niem put down her pen.
"Mom, can you stop making trouble? I still have to study."
"Mom, where are you causing trouble? I did this for you." Hua's mother raised her voice. "Room is essential. There are people who are kind on the outside, but on the inside they are very dark."
Outside the door, a few female students quickly gathered to watch. Khuong Tuyet, her roommate, stuck her head in and said loudly:
"Miss Hua, you dare to speak the truth. For the past three years, To Duong has been lecturing her daughter and staying up all night to edit each essay. Now you say his hands and feet are not clean?"
Hua Niem Niem frowned.
"Khuong Tuyet, don't talk nonsense. Teaching is about friends helping each other, no one is forcing him."
Khuong Tuyet rolled her eyes.
"Yes, no one is forcing you. Every time you failed in your exam, cried until midnight and then held To Duong's sleeve tightly to prevent him from sleeping, who did it?"
