“So, I am very grateful to my younger sister, and I hope I can become even better to serve as a role model for her.”
As he said this, Xia Chen and Xia Wan locked eyes, and Xia Wan’s eyes became slightly teary.
Even though Xia Chen had put in more effort, every word he spoke praised her.
The class teacher, being a sentimental person, also felt her eyes welling up as she stood up and applauded, saying, “Both of you, siblings, are exemplary. I am proud of your parents.”
The classroom atmosphere became harmonious, with everyone congratulating Xia Wan and Xia Chen.
Just then, a female classmate named Wang Yuan raised a question, “Teacher, I suspect Xia Wan of cheating.
“Everyone knows that she sits next to Liu Hua, and they are from the same village. They eat together every day, and sometimes Liu Hua even helps out at the clothing store. They have a close relationship.
“If, during the monthly exam, Liu Hua deliberately moved her test paper closer to Xia Wan’s side, Xia Wan could easily see it with a sidelong glance.”
The class teacher hesitated for a moment and didn’t immediately suspect Xia
Wan. Instead, she asked Xia Wan and Liu Hua, “Did both of you cheat?”
Xia Wan answered with a calm gaze, “During the exam, Liu Hua and I didn’t communicate in any way. There was no cheating.”
Liu Hua, feeling displeased, added, “Teacher, it’s precisely because we were seated together that I know how hard Xia Wan works in her studies. Her current score is all due to her diligent note-taking during class and thorough revision after school.”
Liu Hua then turned to Wang Yuan and said, “I think some classmates are rather narrow-minded. Just because Xia Wan improved quickly, they suspect her of using unfair means.
“Clearly, Xia Wan has worked so hard, yet she faces suspicion from others. If hardworking individuals are always doubted, who would want to put in the
effort?”
Xia Wan noticed that Liu Hua had a talent for eloquence. In just a few words, she managed to explain the situation and make the class teacher take the matter seriously.
Indeed, at this moment, the class teacher had significantly reduced her doubts about Xia Wan and instead turned to Wang Yuan, asking, “Do you have any evidence that they cheated? Did you see them passing notes or anything?” Wang Yuan stuttered and couldn’t provide any concrete evidence.
She struggled to say, “I just find it hard to believe. Xia Wan used to perform so poorly.”
Suddenly, Wang Yuan seemed to remember something, her eyes brightened, and she said, “Teacher, compare Xia Wan and Liu Hua’s papers to see if they made the same mistakes. That can prove whether Xia Wan cheated or not.”
The class teacher furrowed her brow, saying, “Difficult questions are prone to mistakes for many students. I’m not convinced by this method you’ve proposed to check for cheating.”
“However, I can compare their papers to see if they are identical. But if the result of the check shows that Xia Wan did not cheat, I hope you will publicly apologize to Xia Wan in front of the class. ”
Wang Yuan’s face showed a mixture of embarrassment and frustration.
She had expected the class teacher to immediately agree with her.
At this point, she had no choice but to agree.
Wang Yuan gritted her teeth and said, “Fine, if their wrong answers are different, I’m willing to apologize!”
The class teacher compared Xia Wan and Liu Hua’s papers, and they had different mistakes and different problem-solving approaches.
With a stern look, she turned to Wang Yuan and said, “What else is there to say? Both of their papers have different mistakes. Xia Wan answered correctly where Liu Hua made mistakes. How could Xia Wan have copied Liu Hua’s paper?”
Wang Yuan stared blankly at the comparison of the two papers and mumbled,
“This can’t be. How could Xia Wan make such significant progress? Why does she deserve it?”
The class teacher gave her a stern look and said, “Xia Wan knows that her previous performance was poor, so she took the initiative to seek tutoring..
Why can’t she make progress?”
