Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Panda Novel

Gao Yang had Qin Ran’s number, but he had never called her before.

The first thing he did was to understand the situation from Lin Siran, Qiao Sheng, and the other students.

After hearing Lin Qi’s words, he nodded.

Without saying much, he directly took out his phone and called Qin Ran.

Qin Ran, who was already back at the school doctor’s office, answered the phone. At this time, Cheng Mu walked in carrying two lunch boxes and a plastic bag.

“Mr. Gao.” Qin Ran put own her headphones. She did not go out but talked to him as she slowly practiced her writing.

“Did you have a dispute with someone at noon?” Gao Yang’s voice was soothing and he did not sound angry at all.

Qin Ran acknowledged and continued writing. Initially, the writing from her left hand was slow and divided into strokes, but now it seemed to have a vigorous style of writing.

Lu Zhaoying silently admired it at the side.

Gao Yang paused for a moment and his voice became a little impatient. “You changed your position back?”

Qin Ran acknowledged him again without speaking much.

“How about you come over for a while. Let me clarify this first.” Gao Yang sighed. “Mr. Lin and your mom already came by.”

“Sure.” Qin Ran slowly responded. She tossed her pen aside, and it was obvious that she was not in a good mood.

Instead of leaving immediately, she sat in her original position and seemed to evaluate the words she had just written.

Without saying a word, her eyebrows drooped. Even someone standing far away could feel that she wanted them to stay away.

Cheng Mu paused for a moment before handing the plastic bag to Cheng Juan.

He went around Lu Zhaoying, not daring to place a lunch box on Qin Ran’s table, and discreetly asked him what had happened.

Lu Zhaoying shook his phone in front of him.

After some time, Qin Ran finally placed her hands on the table and stood up. She said vaguely, “I have something on. I have to see my form teacher for a while.”

Cheng Mu felt that the tense atmosphere was finally broken and finally handed her the lunch box. “But Miss Qin, it’s almost time to eat.”

“I might be back a little late. You don’t have to wait for me.” Qin Ran waved at them. Without looking back, she walked out of the school doctor’s office.

After Qin Ran left, Lu Zhaoying let Cheng Mu and Cheng Juan look at his phone.

Cheng Juan had already placed a portion of the books Qin Ran damaged in front of him.

He was holding a penknife and glue in his hand.

3There was a dark look on his handsome face.

“Should we look for Principal Xu?” Lu Zhaoying almost wanted to go to the teaching block to smash all the books. “I gave those tickets to Qin Ran. What does it have to do with her?”

Cheng Juan lowered his head again. “No.”

Lu Zhaoying was a little disappointed. He really wanted to stir something big.

1After some thought, his eyes lit up again. “I’ll ask my dad to do something to the Meng family.”

Otherwise, he would not be able to let this go.

“Go ahead.” Cheng Juan picked up the penknife again and said a little nasally as if he just woke up.

Lu Zhaoying looked down and realized that the cracks on the book nearby were almost invisible.

“When did you learn this?” Lu Zhaoying raised his head. No wonder Cheng Mu was asked to bring back glue and a professional penknife with him.

Cheng Juan bit his lip and coughed twice. “Novice.”

Lu Zhaoying looked at Cheng Juan rather speechlessly.

However, once Cheng Juan was focused on something, he would never give up halfway. No matter what other people said in the Cheng family, no one would say that he was idling around.

He waited for him to leave.

Only then did Cheng Juan put down the penknife and took out a phone from the drawer. It was a very thick and black phone.

If Qin Ran was there, she would definitely notice that this phone was almost exactly the same as hers.

1Cheng Juan lowered his head, calmly typed out a message, and sent it out.

After a while, he replied to a few messages.

When he was done, he put the phone back in the drawer and locked it again.

He raised his eyes slightly. It was not as graceful as the past, but his eyes, which were covered by long and curled eyelashes, sparkled slightly before turning cold again.

Soon, Qin Ran arrived at where Gao Yang was.

Once she entered, anxious eyes looked at her. “Ran Ran!”

Lin Qi looked at Qin Ran indifferently. In the past, not only did he think that Qin Ran was better than Qin Yu, but he also admired Qin Ran’s personality.

1However, what Meng Xinran said today infuriated him.

He had always been kind to his ex-wife’s relatives.

When he reached the school, he went to look at the scene below the teaching block. He immediately saw the mess of books and the desk that was thrown down.

How much hatred did someone need to have to solve problems in such an insulting way?

1That was why Lin Qi looked really cold when he looked for Ning Qing.

He was expressionless when he saw Qin Ran.

However, Qin Ran was not nervous at all. She calmly walked over and stopped in front of Gao Yang.

She did not act like a perpetrator or a victim.

She even spoke politely. “Mr. Gao.”

After a pause, she looked at Lin Qi. “Uncle Lin.”

After being in Yun Cheng for so long, Lin Qi did not treat her exceptionally well, but he did not mistreat her as well. In fact, he even wanted to contribute in some areas before.

Although she solved her problems by herself in the end, she remembered his good intentions.

However, when Lin Qi looked at her today, he did not say anything or respond.

His expression was cold.

Ning Qing also knew that Lin Qi treated Qin Ran very well. Although Qin Ran did not agree to join the Feng Corporation, it was obvious that Lin Qi thought highly of Qin Ran.

However, after seeing Lin Qi’s cold expression, a chill ran down Ning Qing’s spine.

“Ran Ran!” Ning Qing anxiously called out. “Why did you take Ms. Meng’s tickets? Is this all a misunderstanding? There’s still time for you to tell us…”

1Qin Ran looked at her blankly.

Meng Xinran glanced at her and smiled coldly. Qin Ran had her hands in her pockets, looking as if she was not worried at all. “I invited you to watch the exhibition match but you acted disdainfully. Even you didn’t think that someone in the Ninth Class would dare to overturn your table, right?”

1All three of them spoke aggressively.

Gao Yang watched them for two minutes before speaking. “Student Meng, can I ask what those tickets are and why it was impossible for Qin Ran to have them?”

“What’s there to clarify? Even Qiao Sheng can’t get those tickets. Do you think she is able to get them?” Qiao Sheng smiled lightly as she glanced at Gao Yang. “Outsiders aren’t even able to buy those tickets. They are tickets belonging to Yunguang Consortium.”

1Gao Yang looked at her again. “Why can’t it be that someone is trying to sabotage her?”

Meng Xinran’s eyes turned cold. “If you don’t admit it, we will meet again at the police station.”

Ning Qing became nervous. She whispered in a low voice, “Ran Ran, how about you give those tickets to Ms. Meng, apologize to her, and put an end to this matter.”

Although Lin Qi was silent, he felt that Qin Ran should apologize for throwing Meng Xinran’s table down from the fifth floor.

After hearing this, Gao Yang also did not say anything but turn towards the cold Lin Qi.

“Mr. Lin, you aren’t familiar with what happened, right?”

Lin Qi was an experienced businessman and stood in an imposing manner. His eyes were very astute. “I don’t need you to tell me anything. I know. My niece participated in a year of matches before she came back to study in Grade 3. Her results are very good, but because of today, she wasted an entire afternoon instead of improving on her studies.

1After hearing him, Gao Yang smiled. In a stern voice, he said, “From what I know, your niece knocked down Qin Ran’s desk before finding out the entire truth. The entire Ninth Class knows that Qin Ran has a stack of books that she loves and there are even some hard copies that are temporarily unavailable in the market now. Many of her books were damaged.

3“Qin Ran should not have thrown Student Meng’s books out, but the first person who was in the wrong and rude should be the one to apologize first. And isn’t that person Ms. Meng?”

1Lin Qi was startled. Meng Xinran did not tell him about these details.

He always thought that Qin Ran was embarrassed and angry after Meng Xinran said that she stole her tickets and threw Meng Xinran’s desk out directly.

1Gao Yang did not speak in a sarcastic tone.

1However, every word seemed to cut like a knife. Lin Qi was so angry that he almost exploded.

In reality, as long as he probed a little, he would have found out about these things.

Unfortunately, he did not ask any questions and felt indignant for Meng Xinran.

Lin Qi’s face stiffened. Now, he was afraid to look into Qin Ran’s eyes.

Ning Qing, who had been relentlessly urging Qin Ran to apologize, was also stunned.

“Saying all these things are useless,” Meng Xinran calmly said. In this situation, she continued to behave gracefully. “The fact is that Qin Ran stole my tickets.”

Gao Yang nodded. “Qiao Sheng has already gone to get a copy of the surveillance camera tape. He’ll be here soon.”

**

Knock!

Within twenty minutes, Qiao Sheng knocked on the door.

“Teacher.” He walked in, looked straight, and gave a USB flash drive to Gao Yang.

When she saw the USB flash drive in Qiao Sheng’s hand, Ning Qing tensed up.

“Ran Ran, did you take them?” After seeing Meng Xinran cross her arms with a cold expression, she became nervous. “Meng Xinran is Lin Jinxuan’s daughter and I heard that he’s part of the Yunguang Consortium… How about you think of yourself and your sister. She’s still there with Lin Wan…”

1Qin Ran did not look at her. She also crossed her arms as she watched Gao Yang insert the USB flash drive in the computer.

Qiao Sheng only obtained a video clip.

There were no surveillance cameras in Heng Chuan First Middle School. There were only cameras in the corridor, so Qiao Sheng only had the video clip of the corridor.

Gao Yang fast-forwarded the clip at 32 times the normal speed.

It showed Meng Xinran staying in class for around thirty minutes.

In the video, it was very clear that Qin Ran was the last to leave the classroom.

After some time, two boys were the first to return to the class. After around half an hour, two girls entered the class.

In short, after watching the clip, it was proof that everyone else was not involved whereas Qin Ran’s actions became more suspicious.

Meng Xinran sneered and looked at Qin Ran. “Qin Ran, the evidence is here. You were the last one to leave. Who else could have stolen my tickets and framed you? Still denying it?”

Qin Ran nodded and looked indifferently at Meng Xinran. “So only you are able to get the tickets and no one else can get them?”

Not only did she have tickets, but she also had a stack of tickets.

“Ran Ran, that’s enough.” Ning Qing raised her voice and looked at Ms. Meng timidly. “Ms. Meng, I’m sorry, Ran Ran didn’t…”

“Do you actually think that you can get these tickets just by paying money?” Meng Xinran taunted. “These are tickets from Yunguang Consortium. Are you dreaming?”

Only then did Lin Qi finally speak.

Due to the misunderstandings he had about Qin Ran, he felt a little guilty.

“No matter what, as long as the tickets are still here. It’s not that bad.” Lin Qi turned to look at Qin Ran. “Perhaps I have misunderstood you. How about you give the tickets to Xinran and I will take it as if this matter never happened.”

Meng Xinran did not agree with this idea at all. However, since Lin Qi spoke, she could only stand at the side and sneer at Qin Ran.

Qin Ran leaned against the table and said, “So do you think that not letting me apologize and not reporting this matter to the police is the best you can do to pity me?”

Lin Qi did not expect this reaction from Qin Ran. “I…”

Meng Xinran was amused by Qin Ran’s reaction and laughed mockingly.

Ning Qing always knew that Qin Ran was strong-willed, but at this point in time, she still spoke recklessly and she really wished she could shut her mouth.

“Qin Ran, how about you return me my four tickets. They are four consecutive numbers.” Meng Xinran did not want to deal with Qin Ran any longer and said impatiently.

However, Qin Ran was startled and squinted. “Well then, Ms. Meng, you still remember the seat numbers of the tickets from Yunguang Consortium, right?”

“Qin Ran, you look so disgusting when you’re desperate.” Meng Xinran sneered. “They are No. 12, 13, 14, and 15 of Row 9 in Zone B. I don’t want a ticket less.”

“Are you sure?”

“Of course.”

“Ok.” Qin Ran nodded. She took out the tickets Lu Zhaoying gave her from her pocket. “These are my tickets. Everyone, please take a look.”

She almost wanted to laugh in anger. Initially, she thought that Meng Xinran thought her tickets were stolen because she did not remember her own ticket numbers.

1

Unexpectedly, this girl was so proud and aloof.

Gao Yang took them.

Lin Qi was by his side. When he saw them, the color was drained from his face.

Meng Xinran looked at the two of them and frowned. She directly took the tickets from Gao Yang. They were stepped on before and looked uneven, but the seat numbers above were very clear.

No. 8 in Row 5 of Zone A.
