Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat! Chapter 61 - 13: The Cannon Fodder Sister of the Female Lead

In the small independent office of the dean, there was a small stove with a kettle of tea brewing on it. As the tea boiled, its fragrance filled the room, and Jiang Lai not only slled it but also saw it.

Besides her, there were two boys and two girls in the office. One of the girls she recognized, her own elder sister, Jiang Qu.

"Alright, everyone’s here, let’s wait for your horoom teacher to arrive before we talk."

After a while, two horoom teachers also hurried in. As soon as the math teacher saw Jiang Lai, his face darkened, and he walked straight to her side, scolding her in a low voice.

"What rubbish books are you reading again?!"

"Again?"

The dean took a sip of tea and smiled.

"Looks like you’re a repeat offender."

Jiang Lai looked puzzled, glancing at Jiang Qu.

"Sis, what exactly is going on? What mistake did I make?"

Jiang Qu stayed silent with her head down while the girl next to her spoke angrily.

"Isn’t it all your fault! If you hadn’t wanted to read those ssy things, would Jiang Qu have borrowed such a book for you? It’s bad enough that you drag yourself down with bad grades, now you’re pulling Jiang Qu down too. I really don’t know why you go to school wasting money!"

Jiang Lai pondered and after glancing around, her eyes fell on the novel placed in front of the dean.

The cover was a red classic, but inside was a handwritten copy of a novel.

Jiang Lai’s face changed, full of innocence and grievance.

"What are you talking about? When did I want to read such a book, I’ve been studying hard recently, where’s the ti for these leisure books!"

The girl shook Jiang Qu’s arm.

"Jiang Qu, tell them, isn’t it because she asked you to borrow it!"

Jiang Qu lifted her head, glanced at Jiang Lai with difficulty, then reluctantly lowered her head, speaking softly.

"I can’t bla her entirely, after all, I borrowed it. The main fault is with ."

"Did you hear that, Dean! It was because she wanted to read it that Jiang Qu borrowed it from them, if you don’t believe , you can ask around, Jiang Lai dropped out before because she kept reading these books, got discovered by teachers, and didn’t repent. Eventually, due to poor grades, she was kicked out of school."

Upon hearing this, tears welled up in Jiang Lai’s eyes instantly.

"I admit I made a mistake before, and I paid the price for it. So I cherish the chance to learn again now! You can’t just completely bury for one mistake I made, why should I admit to sothing I didn’t do? And sis, did you tell them you borrowed the book for ?"

Jiang Qu knew that Jiang Lai was slick-tongued, leaving her face would only let her get an inch and want a mile. In this situation concerning the future, she must stand firm.

"Jiang Lai, wasn’t each borrowing for you? I’ve advised you many tis, now it’s co to this, I can’t help it, be honest, maybe the dean will give you another chance."

The tea aroma in the room grew even stronger.

The dean put down the teacup and looked at Jiang Lai, his tone serious.

"A young girl always thinking about reading those hodgepodge things, do you know how hard it is for girls your age to get an education? Instead of wasting ti at school every day, it’s better to leave educational resources to those more diligent kids."

Jiang Lai wiped her tears.

"Why! Everything should be based on evidence! Why is it just what she says? Besides, the book wasn’t found on , why assu it was borrowed for to read?"

At this ti, the girl spoke with firm arrogance.

"Because Jiang Qu has good grades and you’re poor! Ever think about how much effort her grades co from, and how your grades degrade step by step? Poor grades and still so arrogant, Dean, she should be expelled!"

Jiang Lai looked directly at the horoom teacher, a stubborn look in her eyes.

"Teacher, are the monthly exam results out?"

The horoom teacher, who didn’t know how to interject from start to finish, hesitated for a few seconds and then nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, they should be out. They said yesterday that they’d be delivered this morning, they should be in teachers’ offices now."

"Great, then could you please check how I did in the last exam?"

The horoom teacher nodded, and looking at Jiang Lai’s eyes, couldn’t help but feel a sense of pity.

Jiang Lai was a hardworking and conscientious child, her effort was evident in regular tests and training, so he didn’t fully believe that Jiang Lai would secretly read those leisure books.

At this mont, the dean nodded.

"Go get Jiang Lai’s exam papers for each subject, whether she read those things or not, her grades are the best proof. No matter how much you say, nothing speaks louder than grades."

"Go, quickly go, don’t make a fool of anyone!"

The horoom teacher hurriedly headed towards the office.

Jiang Lai stared unflinchingly at Jiang Qu.

"With you trapping your own sister like this, don’t your conscience hurt?"

Jiang Qu raised her head, a hint of helplessness in her gaze.

"Jiang Lai, I hope this ti you can grow up."

"Ha! Even stepping back ten thousand steps assuming I asked you to borrow the book, as an elder sister, knowing that stuff once had in despair, seeing that your sister has a chance to correct her ways, yet you give her these leisure books again, Jiang Qu, don’t say it’s out of soft-heartedness, I think you just want to continue falling, so that all resources at ho belong to you, isn’t it?"

"Jiang Lai, you are my sister, if your grades improve, I’ll be happier than anyone, so will mom and dad. Besides, I’m in my senior year, and I just want to study hard and get into college to repay our parents."

"Well, then I’ll go back and tell mom and dad and brother about this, let them see how you, as a sister, take care of your younger sibling. Also, I just want to study hard now, yesterday when you voluntarily handed the ’Legend of the Condor Heroes’, I clearly said I didn’t want to read it, next ti, don’t put these hodgepodge leisure books in front of , if you want to read, do it by yourself, don’t drag others down with you."

"I... when did I..."

"Otherwise, how would I know what that book is? Didn’t you yourself actively tell about it?"

Jiang Qu gritted her teeth, calming herself and said.

"Wasn’t it you who asked to borrow this book?"

Jiang Lai raised an eyebrow and asked the two boys nearby.

"When she ca to you for books, did she directly give the na and ask you to find it? What’s your relationship with her? You’re willing to help with this kind of favor?"

Jiang Qu’s face alternated between pale and green, her heart pounding, that feeling like her secret was being uncovered made her palms sweaty. She hadn’t expected Jiang Lai to say such ruthless things in front of so many people, at this point, whatever she responded might trip herself up, so Jiang Qu simply lowered her head, still carrying a faint sadness on her face.

But at this mont, everyone in the office looked at Jiang Qu in unison.

There was a sudden sense of realization.
