Miracle Pill Maker Bullies the Boss

“Based on Huo Yao’s problem-solving methods, these solutions are honestly too much of a hassle. Moreover, questions like these are probably child’s play to her.”

The physics teacher commented without batting an eyelid.

After all, she was a genius who could effortlessly solve the Physics Olympiad questions.

The Principal looked at Wei Mingzhe calmly. “Wei, are you still going to insist on getting Huo Yao investigated for cheating?”

Wei Mingzhe stood where he was and did not know what to say. He realised that all the respect he gathered as a teacher during the past many years, had dissipated completely now in front of his colleague and the Principal.

The room was absolutely quiet.

The physics teacher glanced at them. He coughed awkwardly and broke the silence.

“Sir, please consider my suggestion. It’s a waste of talent for Huo Yao to stay in the Experimental Class. I don’t mind even if she attends only my classes,” said the physics teacher.

The Principal had no intention of persecuting Wei Mingzhe. He certainly cared about the matter, but Wei Mingzhe would feel worse if the Principal stopped at the right time. This sense of shame would manifest into humiliation and follow him for life.

The Principal composed his thoughts and looked at the physics teacher. “You probably have to ask her yourself. I suggested to her that she transfer classes, but she rejected my offer.”

Wei Mingzhe’s hands trembled.

“Fine. Let me check with her. We can’t put such a great talent to waste,” said the physics teacher.

The Principal smiled without speaking further.

Huo Yao went back to the classroom shortly after she finished lunch in the afternoon. She lay lazily on the table with a book covering her head.

Right then, an anonymous post appeared on the school’s forum. The post claimed that Huo Yao cheated during the National Quiz Contest and had obtained the answers in advance. It also revealed Huo Yao’s previous results while she was studying in the small county.

The forum instantly exploded when everyone saw Huo Yao failing almost every subject as per that report.

[Are her grades… for real?]

[What’s going on? Rumors about Huo Yao keep spreading. Hasn’t she proved herself enough?]

[Then again, isn’t Huo Yao an arts student? I heard that most of the questions in the latest round of the National Quiz Contest were related to science. Just think about that.]

[I just became Huo Yao’s fan, but I can’t be sure now after looking at this post. Does anyone know anything more about this matter?]

…

Within a few minutes, the news had already received 100 comments.

Meng Ying hurried back to the classroom with her phone in hand. She walked over and removed the book kept on top of Huo Yao’s head. She couldn’t help grimace when she saw the party involved having an afternoon nap nonchalantly. “Sister Big Shot, we’re in trouble.”

Huo Yao turned her face towards Meng Ying but continued to lie on the table. She looked at Meng Ying groggily and seemed angry that Meng Ying had disturbed her.

Meng Ying swallowed her saliva and placed the phone in front of Huo Yao’s eyes. “Someone has claimed that you cheated during the National Quiz Contest. As per this post, you keep coming first because you have all the answers in advance.”

Huo Yao gave a quick glance at Meng Ying’s phone. She closed her eyes and replied in a bored tone. “This is so stupid.”

Then she felt around for another book and opened it to cover her head with it.

Meng Ying’s lips twitched. The suspect was completely calm while Meng Ying was fretting.

She did not dare remove the book again and only said, “Although I think this is dumb as well, they posted it on the school forum. If you allow them to tarnish your name, what will the other students think? The culprit is clearly trying to chase you out of No.1 Middle School!”

This was so irritating!

Huo Yao removed the book from her head and suddenly stood up angrily before walking out.
