Mr. Lu's body trembled. He subconsciously clenched his fists and smiled apologetically. "You misunderstood me. That's not what I meant."
The Principal's eyes were cold. He picked up a stack of test papers and a report from the desk and handed them to Mr. Lu. "Mr. Lu, please take a look. Are these results bad?"
Mr. Lu's eyes landed on the Principal's test papers. He hesitated for a second before reaching out to take them.
The test papers were the monthly test papers and the full marks that Huo Yao had done online before she entered No.1 Middle School. They were all printed out.
The report cards were the total marks for each test. Huo Yao's name was clearly at the top of the list.
Mr. Lu looked at the full marks and ranking on the test papers in disbelief. He flipped through the papers a few times as though he was afraid that he was seeing things.
"Do you think I need to cheat with this kind of results?" The Principal's lips twitched in a sarcastic manner.
"That's... impossible. Her results are not like this," muttered Mr. Lu as he shook his head.
No matter how much his foster daughter had improved, there was no way she could have topped the grade.
The Principal seemed to know that Mr. Lu would not believe him, so he picked up another copy of the test papers. "Sure. Mr. Lu, take a look at this one."
It was a copy of the National Quiz Contest paper.
"Mr. Lu, you might not be able to understand it, but it's fine. You can compare it with your friend from the Education Association. Let's see if Huo Yao's answers are the same as the answers in your textbook."
The Principal's voice was calm. He had an imposing aura to begin with. Even though he spoke in a calm tone, he still sounded sharp.
Papa Lu's original plan was to push all the blame onto his foster daughter. After all, the Lu family had raised her for seventeen years. Putting her through this time was purely a way to repay their kindness. At most, he would make it up to her with money in the future.
After all, he did not want his biological daughter's future to be tainted.
Mr. Lu looked at the test papers in his hands and felt upset. He did not expect his foster daughter to suddenly do so well in her studies. It even seemed like the Principal was fond of her...
"Mr. Lu, are you going to push all the blame onto Huo Yao?" sneered the Principal. He had no intention of letting the matter rest.
He was the one who recruited Huo Yao, so he would never allow anyone to slander her.
Papa Lu was in a difficult position. Since he had already made the accusation, he would be slapping himself in the face if he were to take it back.
Mr. Lu pressed his forehead and looked at the Principal. Just as he was about to speak, the Principal's phone rang in his pocket. He instantly shut his mouth.
The Principal took out his phone and looked at the caller ID. His brows subconsciously furrowed. After a moment of hesitation, he walked to the window and picked up the phone.
It was a call from the Education Association.
Two minutes later. "… Alright, I understand."
After the Principal hung up the phone, his eyes darkened. He turned around and walked up to Lu Xia's father. "That's all for the National Quiz Contest."
Papa Lu heaved a sigh of relief. Before he came, he had called his old friend, the chairman of the Education Association.
It seemed that the phone call just now was from his friend.
