Chapter 18 — Reliving Before the University Exam, I Tear Up the Conspiracy to Steal Direct Admissions

I looked at the phone screen. There was no feeling of gloating in my heart. Next to her, grandmother was peeling a tea egg. Peel it off and give it to me. I take it.

"The eggs Ms. Luong brought have already been eaten."

Grandma said:

"When you're done, eat your peeled eggs."

"You're so skinny."

"Later we argue and lose to others."

I laughed.

"You scolded Hua Niem Niem very badly just now."

Grandma snorted.

"She's old."

"But it's not stupid."

In the afternoon, after finishing Math, something happened in front of the school gate. As soon as Hua Niem Niem stepped out of the exam room, Hua's mother rushed to hug her.

"Nem Niem."

"How was the exam?"

"Mom, this can't happen anymore."

"You must definitely try."

Hua Niem Niem's face turned pale. She pushed her mother's hand away.

"Mom, don't touch me."

Hua's mother was stunned.

"Mom stood waiting for me all day."

"What's the use of waiting for you?"

Hua Niem Niem tried to keep her voice low, but the surrounding students still heard clearly.

"Mom made things turn out like this..."

"What kind of exam do you have?"

"You read the first sentence wrong."

"I haven't finished writing my essay yet."

Hua's mother's lips trembled.

"Do you... blame me?"

Hua Niem Niem's eyes turned red.

"If you don't blame your mother, then who will you blame?"

"I told you to only scare To Duong a little, but you made a fuss all the way to the hospital."

"I asked mom to get the file bag, she still let someone film it."

"Mom can't do anything."

The parents standing around all turned to look. Some people even took out their phones to record. Mother Hua raised her hand to slap her but was stopped by a teacher standing next to the security fence.

"This is the area outside the test site, please do not affect other candidates."

Only then did Hua Niem Niem realize that there were still many people around. She immediately burst into tears.

"Mom, I'm sorry."

"It's just that the pressure is too great."

But the last few sentences... They've all been filmed. When Khuong Tuyet forwarded the video to me, she also texted one more sentence.

"Dog bites dog, tonight I have to reward myself with a chicken thigh."

I opened the video. Watch it once then turn it off. Grandma asked:

"What's going on?"

"The mother and daughter argued among themselves."

Grandma nodded.

"People who do things against their conscience..."

"No matter what, you will bite your own family first."

The next morning, before the English test. The principal personally came to the hospital to find me. He wasn't wearing a suit. In his hand he also carried a basket of fruit. As soon as she saw him, her grandmother's face immediately turned cold.

"Our family does not accept gifts."

The principal stood there, unable to put it down, unable to pick it up either.

"Sir."

"Today I came to apologize to To Duong."

"The school did not handle it properly, causing her to suffer a lot of resentment."

I stood next to the hospital bed.

"Principal."

"You didn't come to apologize."

"You came because you were afraid of the inspection team."

The smile on the principal's face immediately stiffened.

"To Duong."

"The school also has its own difficulties."

"Exam scores are coming soon."

"Enrollment season is coming."

"If this becomes a big deal now..."

"It will have a very bad impact on Van Xuyen No. 1 school."

Grandma put the teacup firmly on the table.

"What affects reputation is what you do."

"It's not because my niece dares to say it."

The principal took a deep breath.

"I admit..."

"Teacher Chu and Hua Niem Niem's parents already improper exchange."

"The school will handle it."

"But I can help you talk to Mr. Co..."

"Is it okay that the school has no malicious intent?"

"Who told you to write that report?"

The principal's eyes immediately avoided.

"Teacher Chu is the one who drafted the draft."

"What about your comments?"

"I... just took a look."

"So who is the school's seal preparing to affix?"

The principal was silent. I calmly said:

"You just go back and wait for the results of the investigation."

Finally, the principal got impatient.

"To Duong."

"I can't destroy my own old school."

"Later I came out of Van Xuyen School No. 1."

"If someone else asks..."

"I myself am not glorious."

I looked at him.

"The old school is not a shield."

"That place taught me to learn."

"But that doesn't mean they have the right to harm me."

The principal's face completely darkened.

"I'm still young."

"Don't cut off all your escape routes."

At that moment... The hospital room door was pushed open. Teacher Co stood at the door. In his hand he holds a file of documents.

"To Duong's path..."

"It's not up to the people who threatened her to decide."

The principal was startled.

"Teacher Co..."

Teacher Co didn't even look at the fruit basket.

"Hai Thanh University has received notice from the inspection team."

"To Duong's admission confirmation has been completed."

"Will not be affected by any additional documents from Van Xuyen No. 1 school."

"Also..."

"The school is suspected of violating regulations by creating false documents about the moral qualities of students."

"We will coordinate the investigation."

The principal's shoulders immediately slumped. Grandma looked at Mr. Co and smiled so much that the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were clearly visible.

"Teacher."

"Would you like a glass of water?"

Master Co smiled gently.

"Thank you."

"Don't bother."

When the principal carried the fruit basket and left... His back looked much lower than when he first arrived. Khuong Tuyet poked her head in from outside the door.

"Did I miss any good scenes?"

"There's still a lot left."
