Chapter 19 — Reliving Before the University Exam, I Tear Up the Conspiracy to Steal Direct Admissions

That afternoon the university exam ended. Van Xuyen poured a heavy rain. Hua Niem Niem walked out of the test site. But Hua's mother was nowhere to be seen. She stood under the porch waiting ten minutes. The impatience on his face became more and more obvious. Trieu Khai sent me a video taken at the scene. Hua's mother was called by the police to give additional testimony. So I couldn't come pick up my daughter. Around... Everyone in class brought an umbrella. Only Hua Niem Niem stood alone in the corner. The sleeve of the uniform was already half wet. If it was before... I would have divided the box for her then. In the video... Hua Niem Niem turned to look at Khuong Tuyet. Khuong Tuyet pulled the umbrella closer to her.

"What are you looking at me for?"

"This umbrella does not cover white-eyed wolves."

Someone standing next to him burst out laughing. Hua Niem Niem's face turned red. Then rushed straight into the rain. Before announcing test scores... The results of the investigation were announced in advance. La Thanh admitted receiving money to post articles. Publicly apologize and compensate. Teacher Chu was suspended from work. Then he was transferred from his teaching position. The principal was disciplined. Van Xuyen School No. 1 was asked to rectify. Hua's mother was punished for harassing patients, sending people to spread students' private information, and disrupting school order. At the same time, he was asked to write a letter of apology to me and my grandmother. Because Hua Niem Niem is still a minor contestant, the investigation notice does not state her full name. Only processed within school boundaries. Record it in your personal profile. Cancellation of eligibility to vote for outstanding graduating student of the year. At the same time, all nomination documents will be revoked. When she came to the hospital to find me... The arrogance on her face had been partially eroded. But another gloomy look appeared. Grandma just fell asleep. I stopped her in the hallway. She gave me a piece of paper.

"It's an apology letter."

I don't accept. She raised her head to look at me.

"To Duong, don't be too much."

"Then bring it back."

She clenched her teeth, opened the paper, her voice seemed to be forced out of every word from the stone.

"I am Hua Niem Niem. Because of my jealousy and wrongdoing, I would like to apologize to To Duong. I provided To Duong's student ID photo, coordinated with my mother to post false information, caused misunderstandings among classmates and teachers, and caused harm to To Duong and her family. I confirm that To Duong never took my documents, never hid my exam admission notice, and never affected anyone. my participation in the university entrance exam."

In the hallway, a few of the patient's family members also stopped to listen. Hua Niem Niem's face was sometimes red and sometimes white. She glared at me.

"That's all that's in the letter."

"Grandmother."

She squeezed the apology letter until it wrinkled.

"Sorry... I shouldn't have sent someone to harass your grandmother."

I calmly corrected it.

"It's not the wrong person."

"You yourself used her to threaten me."

Hua Niem Niem suddenly raised her head.

"To Duong, do you have to push me to the end?"

I looked at her.

"I just want you to tell the whole truth."

She looked at me for a long time. In the end, he still bowed his head.

"I shouldn't have used your grandmother to threaten you."

Only then did I receive the letter. She immediately said:

"Is that okay now?"

"You tell Hai Thanh University."

"Don't let it This affected my future enrollment in school."

I looked at her. I almost burst out laughing.

"You think..."

"Is apologizing an exchange?"

Her face immediately became unsightly.

"So what do you want anyway?"

"I accept my apology..."

"It's because that's what you owe me."

"It's not like I used it to buy your future."

Hua Niem Niem's hand fumbled in her uniform pocket. Searched for a long time but couldn't find anything. Finally had to let it go. Suddenly she spoke up.

"You know what?"

"My mother wants to break off relations with me."

"She said I pushed her away as a shield."

"My dad also called and scolded me."

"He said the whole store was being pointed at."

"To Duong..."

"Are you satisfied now?"

"You asked the wrong person."

"I don't deserve this!"

She lowered her voice.

"Who has never been jealous of others?"

"Who has never blurted out a few words in anger?"

"Why just because of that..."

"But my whole life must be marked with another stain?"

I looked at her.

"Because you turned those words when you were angry..."

"Into a knife."

Finally her tears fell. It doesn't look like it's acting anymore. But like someone who really fell down. Only then will I know the pain.

"I failed the exam."

"In Math, I left two big questions blank."

"Even the English listening part I couldn't hear clearly."

"To Duong..."

"I'm done."
