Chapter 14 — Two People Get 748 Points
Tham Duc Thang shouted at her. “Don't you feel embarrassed enough yet?” The phone lights up. The lock screen wallpaper is a selfie of Tham Nhuoc Duong. On the notification bar there is an unread message. “Email confirmation code has been sent.” The employee took a look and his face became even darker. “This phone needs to be sealed.” Tham Nhuoc Duong suddenly rushed forward. "Impossible!" The homeroom teacher stood in front of her. “Why not?” Tham Nhuoc Duong's lips trembled violently. “Inside are my personal belongings.” I looked at her. “For example, is the mailbox used for denunciation?” She cried looking at me. “Sister, I'm just scared.” “I'm afraid your score will be recorded wrongly.” "I'm afraid you'll be praised for a moment, but then you'll fall more painfully." As soon as this sentence appeared, even she burst out laughing out of anger. "You're afraid he'll fall and get hurt so you should report him first?" Tham Nhuoc Duong shook his head. “It's not me complaining.” “I just sent the photo to someone else.” The meeting room immediately became chaotic. Luu My Quyen quickly covered her mouth. But it was too late. The staff immediately asked: "Send it to whom?" Tham Nhuoc Duong's tears continuously fell. “A classmate.” “He said he could help me ask.” “I didn't know he would report it.” I calmly looked at her. “Was the threatening call last night also from that friend?” She bit her lip and said nothing. The employee connects the phone to the device. During the few minutes everyone waited, the air seemed to be tightly compressed. Very quickly, the messages were restored. Each conversation appears on the screen. Tham Nhuoc Duong sent a photo of a copy of the exam notice. Then sent a sentence. “She can't go to Tsinghua University.” “If she leaves, I will have nothing left.” Luu My Quyen fell down on the chair. Tham Duc Thang's face turned from blue to white. She was so angry that her hands were shaking. The homeroom teacher looked at the screen, his eyes red. “Shen Nhuoc Duong.” “Do you know how serious this is for a contestant?” Tham Nhuoc Duong knelt to the ground. “I didn't mean it.” “I'm just so scared.” “From childhood to adulthood, everyone said I was excellent.” “But she suddenly became the valedictorian of the entire province.” “I cannot accept it.” She raised her head to look at me. “Thanh Hoa, you are wrong.” “Can you forgive me just once?” “We are siblings.” Looking at her kneeling on the ground, I suddenly remembered when I was ten years old. The City Math Competition only has one entry. I ranked first in the school selection round. She cried and said she wanted to prove herself. Luu My Quyen told me to give it to her. Then she won third prize. The whole family celebrated for three days. And I was told I didn't know sisterhood. Now she kneels in front of me again, saying we are sisters. I softly asked: "When you denounced me, did you ever think I was your sister?" Her cries were choked. “I'm really just temporarily confused.” The staff was not moved by tears. “In the chat history there is also content after that.” “The enemy sent a threatening call script last night.” “At the same time, received a remittance of two thousand yuan.” Tham Duc Thang suddenly slammed the table. “Where did two thousand yuan come from?” Tham Nhuoc Duong bowed his head. Luu My Quyen closed her eyes. I looked at her. “Mom gave it right?” Luu My Quyen suddenly raised her head. “I don't know what it's used for.” The staff continued to flip through the messages. Immediately after that, the transfer note content appears on the screen. “Don't let Thanh Hoa register for Tsinghua University.” The entire meeting room was completely engulfed in deathly silence. Luu My Quyen's lips opened and closed. But this time, she couldn't make up any more excuses. 15 The content of the transfer note is projected on the screen. Every word is extremely clear. Don't let Thanh Hoa register for Tsinghua University. Luu My Quyen's face was as white as paper. She suddenly stood up, her voice shrill. “I just wanted to scare it.” “I don't want to ruin it.” “I don't feel safe when my daughter goes so far alone.” She angrily rushed forward, raising her hand to hit her. “You can still say things like that!” The homeroom teacher quickly stopped him. “Don't move your hand.” “Everything now
all need to be saved.” Tham Duc Thang seemed to have been drained of all his strength and fell back into his chair. He looked at Liu My Quyen, then at Tham Nhuoc Duong. “Two people.” “You two kept doing such a thing from me.” Luu My Quyen immediately cried and screamed. “Are you still pretending not to know?” “Didn't you say yesterday that it would be more convenient for Thanh Hoa to study in the province?” “Aren't you also afraid that both of you going to the capital will waste money?” Tham Duc Thang's face changed. “I didn't tell you two to report it!” “I wouldn't even tell you two to find someone to threaten it!” The two argued right in front of everyone. I sat right where I was, not saying a word. Before, whenever they argued, I would instinctively dissuade them. Because if I don't advise, Liu My Quyen will say I'm cold-blooded. But today I don't want to advise anymore. It's not that they don't know right from wrong. They just always felt like I could be sacrificed.
