The Rich Second-Generation Villain With No Morals

Chapter 027: Ah! Caught Cheating, That’s Pretty Embarrassing:

The more someone hates another person, the more they tend to focus on their every move.

As soon as the exam started, Wang Cheng kept glancing at Qi Lin from the corner of his eye.

At first, Qi Lin’s behavior seemed normal—he simply lay on his test paper and went to sleep, just like he had done in the morning.

During the two morning exams, Qi Lin had turned in blank papers both times, making homeroom teacher Mei Sanyuan shake his head and sigh repeatedly.

He had wanted to reprimand Qi Lin, but in the end, he decided there was no point.

After all, Qi Lin’s father had donated one million yuan to the school.

In 2002, a million yuan was equivalent to ten million twenty years later.

Qi Lin had always been a poor student. It wouldn’t be fair to judge him by the same standards as the prodigies at Huashi No.1 High School.

Mei Sanyuan could only take his time and try to guide Qi Lin, hoping he might turn over a new leaf. That was the extent of his responsibility as a teacher.

Back to the present.

Halfway through the exam, Wang Cheng took another glance at Qi Lin and was suddenly stunned.

From his angle, he saw Qi Lin take out a small piece of paper and place it on his lap.

Qi Lin, who hadn’t written a single word earlier, was now holding a pen and scribbling away on his test paper.

“Damn, this guy is cheating!”

Wang Cheng’s heart instantly leaped with excitement.

He had suffered loss after loss at Qi Lin’s hands.

Just moments ago, the girl he adored had even bought Qi Lin a bottle of water.

The seed of revenge had already started growing inside Wang Cheng.

He didn’t immediately raise the alarm. Instead, he leaned closer to Lan Yuxi and whispered, “Lan Yuxi, Lan Yuxi!”

Lan Yuxi was concentrating on her test paper.

After Qi Lin’s lesson at noon, she didn’t dare to cheat anymore. The answers Qi Lin had given back to her had already been torn up and thrown into the trash bin outside the school.

She had scored nearly perfect marks in the two morning exams. With those grades, she was practically guaranteed a top-three spot in the school, so she had given up the idea of cheating in the afternoon.

Lan Yuxi glanced at Wang Cheng with confusion, not understanding what he wanted.

“Lan Yuxi, I discovered something huge—Qi Lin is cheating!”

Wang Cheng sounded extremely excited.

But the moment he said that, Lan Yuxi’s heart nearly jumped out of her chest.

Of course, she knew Qi Lin was cheating—after all, the answers he was copying were the ones she had written down for him!

“Lan Yuxi, what do you think would happen if I reported him for cheating? Would he be expelled?”

Wang Cheng chuckled maliciously.

Lan Yuxi sitting in Qi Lin’s car and even buying him water had already made Wang Cheng feel a strong sense of crisis.

Although he still wanted to take Qi Lin down slowly, stabbing him in the back a few more times, he could tell that Qi Lin had grown smarter. He wasn’t as easy to deal with as before.

Rather than letting a threat linger, it was better to seize this opportunity and completely get rid of him.

But Wang Cheng’s dangerous thoughts instantly made Lan Yuxi’s face go pale.

“No! You absolutely can’t report him!”

She spoke anxiously, trying to stop him.

The answer sheet Qi Lin was copying was written in her handwriting.

If Qi Lin got caught cheating, what would happen to her?

Besides, she had come to understand what kind of person Qi Lin was.

If he was caught, the first thing he would do was expose her.

“Why not? Lan Yuxi, are you trying to protect him?”

The smile on Wang Cheng’s face disappeared.

Jealousy makes people lose their reasoning.

If Lan Yuxi hadn’t tried to stop him, he might have hesitated.

But now, seeing her so anxious about his plan to report Qi Lin, Wang Cheng’s jealousy boiled over.

Before Lan Yuxi could say another word, he suddenly stood up.

Clatter!

His chair scraped across the floor with a sharp noise, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

“Teacher! I’m reporting Qi Lin for cheating on the exam!”

Wang Cheng declared, pointing straight at Qi Lin.

Then, he turned to look at Qi Lin with an air of righteousness.

“Qi Lin, I consider you my brother, my friend. That’s exactly why I can’t stand by and watch you go down the wrong path. You might hate me today for exposing you, but one day, you’ll thank me for pulling you back from the abyss.”

As expected from a top student at Huashi No.1 High School—even his accusations sounded grand and righteous.

Even Qi Lin almost wanted to give him a round of applause.

But the moment Lan Yuxi heard Wang Cheng actually report Qi Lin, her delicate hands covered her face, and her heart turned ice cold.

For the first time, she realized that Wang Cheng was smart but too clever for his own good.

Cheating was a serious offense at Huashi No.1 High School. It was something that had rarely happened in years.

Mei Sanyuan’s expression immediately turned stern.

He strode over to Qi Lin.

“Wang Cheng reported you for cheating. Is that true?”

Mei Sanyuan locked eyes with Qi Lin, his gaze filled with authority.

Though he was shorter and leaner than Qi Lin, he had been a teacher for many years—a gold-star educator, no less.

When he unleashed his presence, most students wouldn’t even dare to look him in the eye, let alone talk back.

But Qi Lin, with a carefree smirk, stood up and met Mei Sanyuan’s gaze head-on.

Seeing this, Mei Sanyuan hesitated for a moment.

This kid really is different from other students…

“Oh no, I got caught cheating. That’s pretty embarrassing.”

After more than ten seconds of staring, Qi Lin suddenly grinned, scratched the back of his head, and put on an apologetic expression.

Mei Sanyuan: “…”

He was speechless.

Getting caught cheating wasn’t making this kid afraid at all—he actually looked kind of proud?

Just how strange was his way of thinking?

And where, exactly, did he look embarrassed?
