Chapter 752: Chapter 752: Returning to One’s Ancestral Roots (8)_1

Qi Lian, upon hearing the noise, came out of the study.

Seeing Qi Lian, Qi Weixin felt a wave of grievance, "Dad, our math teacher gave me a problem set for a test. What should I do!"

"Why would he let you take a test out of the blue?" Qi Lian asked, frowning.

Qi Weixin sobbed as she recounted what had just happened in the office in bits and pieces, finishing with an anxious question, "Dad, what should I do? I can’t solve any of those problems!"

"The Xiu Xi you mentioned, is he the same male student from last time?" Qi Lian’s face looked dreadful.

Qi Weixin nodded, feeling wronged, "This time, we tied for first place." She hadn’t considered that Xiu Xi might have had a hand in this; after all, she was young and couldn’t think of everything.

But Qi Lian thought differently; he certainly didn’t believe it was a coincidence.

Looking at his daughter, who was still sobbing, he asked, "Did you slip up? Or couldn’t keep your mouth shut and let your classmates find out?"

"I didn’t!" Qi Weixin stomped her foot, becoming even more aggrieved and shouting, "I didn’t tell anyone! I’m not that stupid to tell others that I had done those problems."

"Keep your voice down!" Huang Li immediately covered her mouth; the soundproofing in the Tube Building was not good, and the loud shouting could easily be heard by others.

Qi Weixin, realizing she had shouted too loudly, promptly closed her mouth. Seeing Qi Lian’s grim expression, she hid behind Huang Li, a bit frightened.

Meanwhile, Little Fatty was stunned outside.

From the sound of it, their family seemed to imply that there was cheating during the test last Friday? No wonder the tattletale suddenly scored first!

Inside the room, Qi Lian’s face was truly unsightly. He hadn’t expected Xiu Xi to be such a thorn in his side, repeatedly sabotaging him. Just thinking about the setback he had suffered because of Xiu Xi soured his expression further.

As he contemplated how to discreetly obtain that test paper from the teacher, he suddenly heard a noise outside.

His heart tightened, and he made his way to the door.

Despite Ruan Lei’s chubby build, he ran swiftly. When Qi Lian stepped out, he only caught a glimpse of Ruan Lei’s round bottom disappearing down the stairwell. His heart lurched, and he immediately gave chase.

But Ruan Lei had already run far ahead, and lacking Ruan Lei’s stamina, Qi Lian couldn’t keep up beyond the stairs and could only watch as Ruan Lei dashed off at full speed.

Little Fatty, having acquired this information, hardly dared to breathe too loudly, only knowing to run headlong without daring to glance back, fearful that in the time it took to look, Qi Lian might catch up.

When he reached the outside of the classroom, he paused for a brief rest against the wall. Seeing Qi Lian still far behind, he took two deep breaths, then raised his head and began to howl in the corridor, "Cheating, there’s cheating! Qi Weixin’s first place was obtained by cheating!"

With his robust body and full breath, his shouts were heard not only by the four classes on the first floor but by the two grades upstairs as well.

Qi Lian didn’t expect him to act so unpredictably and was furiously livid. His face darkened as he reached out to grab him.

Little Fatty deftly darted into Class 2, continuing to shout while running, "Qi Weixin cheated, Qi Weixin cheated!"

After circling in front of Class 2 a couple of times, as Qi Lian, in a rage, bellowed at the students to help catch him, Little Fatty ran out the back door and into Class 3, continuing his chant.

Amidst his commotion, the entire school quickly learned of the matter.
