Those students did not believe in Qin Sheng’s results to begin with. The moment He Manyun’s words came out, they immediately started discussing among themselves.
“So this Qin Sheng was the one who came out of the examination hall very early this morning?”
“She was able to achieve full marks in half an hour, and it was even a mathematics competition. How is that possible?”
“How can there be such a genius in this world? Who would believe it if there were no tricks?”
“This test paper is stored in the Ministry of Education. It seems that she has a backer in the Ministry of Education.”
“I really thought that she was a genius. I didn’t expect that she would cheat. It’s too embarrassing.”
Li Bao did not stop He Manyun. He did not believe in Qin Sheng’s results either.
However, he was a teacher. He could not casually guess a student’s results.
At this moment, He Manyun said it. It was in line with his thoughts.
After discussing for a while, they turned to the teacher from Imperial Capital University who had just posted the report card.
“Someone cheated. How are you going to handle it?”
“This matter must be investigated. We can’t let her go. This is not fair to the other students.”
“We also need to know what kind of background Qin Sheng has in the Ministry of Education. She can even get an answer?”
That teacher did not know how to handle it either. He opened his mouth and said, “I’ll go ask for instructions. If she really cheated, someone will handle it.”
Li Bao saw that the matter was on his side, so he interjected.
Even if that teacher from Imperial Capital University said so much, he was still unwilling to let Qin Sheng go.
“Don’t let it be that someone really cheated, but they got away with it. After all, she has a big backing.”
Li Bao even deliberately looked at Luo Xuewen. “A certain school is no longer as glorious as before. It’s not impossible for them to take the opportunity to show off and attract a wave of top students.”
Luo Xuewen did not know that Li Bao, as a teacher, would be so thick-skinned. Wasn’t he afraid of being exposed?
Luo Xuewen stood out. “I believe that my student won’t cheat. Qin Sheng has the ability.”
Li Bao sneered. “You’re naturally protecting the students of your school.”
Just as he finished speaking, a dignified male voice sounded from behind him. “Our Ministry of Education is Qin Sheng’s backer?”
Behind him was the Principal of Imperial Capital University.
Li Bao frowned. “You are?”
The Principal of Imperial Capital University introduced, “Minister Chen of Imperial Capital’s Ministry of Education.”
Li Bao’s legs went weak and he nearly fell to the ground.
He called out embarrassedly, “Minister Chen.”
The other students and teachers did not dare to make a sound. Even He Manyun did not dare to appear and hid to the side.
Minister Chen narrowed his eyes. “You said that our Ministry of Education leaked the answer to Qin Sheng?”
Li Bao braced himself and said, “Sir, isn’t Qin Sheng’s results too hard to believe? If we don’t investigate clearly, everyone will not be convinced.”
“Nonsense!” Minister Chen said in a deep voice, “What you said just now is clear. No matter what the result is, Qin Sheng is cheating. Finding out that Qin Sheng cheated is what you believe in your heart. If she doesn’t cheat, then we are protecting her.”
“We… We didn’t mean that,” Li Bao said hesitantly.
Li Bao was unreasonable, but he didn’t dare to be unreasonable in front of the principal.
“I think that’s what you meant.” Minister Chen didn’t think about Li Bao’s words. He had been standing by the side just now and had heard the whole story.
Minister Chen said very seriously, “Our exam papers have always been kept strictly confidential. They are kept in the safe and no one can open them. There has never been a case of a lost exam paper leaking exam questions. This math competition is absolutely fair and just.”
Li Bao’s face turned green and white after hearing what Minister Chen said.
He did not dare to refute. He was not convinced in his heart, but he still nodded repeatedly on the surface. “Yes, yes. I’m sorry, Minister. You taught me the right lesson. I was wrong.”
