Lu Dongyou flew into a rage and slapped Lu Ning across the face.

"Lu Ning, do you dare say that again?"

A burning pain shot through Lu Ning's cheek.

She licked her lips, radiating a gloomy aura; she'd really had enough.

She thought that by distancing herself from the Lu family, she could start her life anew, since she wasn't that important to them anyway.

But Lu Ning never expected that the Lu family would keep haunting her like a ghost!

Her disgust reached its peak!

Qin Xiang feigned concern and pulled Lu Dongyou aside: "Big brother, don't be angry. After all, Sister Ningning is quite outstanding. It's not like she didn't contribute at all. It's all my fault, it's all because..."

Lu Ning slapped Qin Xiang across the face with all her might.

Qin Xiang was so badly hit that she almost lost her balance. Her eyes were filled with shock; she never expected Lu Ning to actually make a move!

Bai Lianhua, clutching her burning face, screamed at Lu Ning, "Are you crazy? How dare you hit me!"

Lu Ning said coldly, "Didn't you say that all of this was your fault, all because of you? In that case, slapping you isn't too much to ask, is it?"

Stop pretending to be innocent! I'll teach you to pretend!

Qin Xiang was so angry that she was speechless.

Although she said it, she was just saying it; she didn't really admit her mistake.

Qin Xiang's eyes immediately reddened, and she looked up at Lu Dongyou: "Big brother, if Sister Ningning slapping me can vent my anger, then I have no complaints."

Lu Dongyou immediately shielded Qin Xiang behind him: "Lu Ning, you're becoming more and more lawless. Just because you've made some contributions to the Lu family, does that give you the right to ride roughshod over all of us?"

Lu Nanfeng spoke up: "Big brother, what Ningning said is true."

"Ridiculous. If it weren't for the Lu family, would you, Lu Ning, have become so outstanding?"

Lu Dongyou thought Lu Ning was just making excuses, and even dared to hit her.

At this moment, several people walked to the ward door: "We are here to investigate the cheating incident during the exam."

Lu Dongyou glanced at the bodyguards and released the people who were being investigated.

Lu Dongyou turned and stared at Lu Ning: "The investigators are all here now. Let's see how long you can keep up this stubbornness. Didn't you think about how people would suspect you if you cheated and became the top scorer? Foolish!"

Qin Xiang pretended to be sensible and said, "Big brother, Sister Ningning probably wanted the family's approval so badly that she took such a risk."

Lu Dongyou: "Hmph, Lu Ning, if you apologize and repent now, I will let you stay in the Lu family."

After all, she's my younger sister; no matter how useless she is, she's still a member of the Lu family.

Just give them something to eat so they don't starve!

Lu Ning coldly replied, "I don't care to stay in the Lu family."

"Do you think that after you've been punished, the school doctor will still be with you just because you have a high school diploma? I'll kick you out of the Lu family. Once the school doctor knows you're not the eldest daughter of the Lu family, will he still treat you so well?"

Wake up! No one in this world will be kind to you for no reason!

Lu Dongyou was furious, feeling as if his only sister had been kidnapped by some blond-haired bastard.

They even cheated.

He never demanded that his younger siblings get good grades; he just wanted them to stay out of the house and not cause trouble or commit crimes.

Lu Ning smiled enigmatically: "The matter hasn't even been investigated properly, and you're already so certain I cheated? Don't you have any good wishes for me?"

"Don't I know your personality too well?"

Lu Dongyou's eyes showed impatience.

Lu Liu stepped forward to explain: "Brother, some people suspected her of cheating during her monthly exam. I personally witnessed her doing the test independently and getting a very high score."

This is a fact.

When Lu Liu saw his elder brother being so rude to Lu Ning and suppressing her, he suddenly remembered that he had done the same thing before.

Lu Liu felt a tightness in his chest.

No wonder my second brother kept saying that Lu Ning was heartbroken; he never understood it before.

Lu Liu now understands.

Lu Dongyou frowned: "Sixth brother, don't speak up for Lu Ning. We'll find out the truth once we investigate."

Lu Ning crossed her arms in front of her: "That's what I think too."

"They really won't shed tears until they see the coffin."

Lu Dongyou looked at the investigators with a disappointed expression and said, "You've all seen it. She's always been unruly, so I'm not surprised she would do something like this. Don't worry about her feelings, just start the investigation."

If Lu Ning learns from this lesson, she will be able to do well in the future.

Qin Xiang was very excited.

They've finally brought Lu Ning down from her pedestal.

Why is Lu Ning the top scorer in the college entrance examination, while her own grades are barely enough to get into a third-tier university?

If she doesn't do well on the exam, Lu Ning won't have an easy time either.

The leader looked directly at Lu Ning and said seriously, "I hope you can answer honestly whether you cheated or not?"

Lu Ning said coldly, "No, you've already asked these questions once. What's the point of asking again?"

The leader was somewhat surprised: "This is our first time coming to see you, what do you mean 'second time'?"

Now it was Lu Ning's turn to be surprised: "No way, I just went to the school to investigate this matter a few days ago."

She said, "How could we possibly investigate a second time?"

Qin Xiang couldn't help but ask, "Did you find out something during the investigation, so you're conducting a second investigation?"

We must absolutely ruin Lu Ning's reputation!

Lu Dongyou looked at the leader and said, "It's okay if we investigate further."

The leader looked at Qin Xiang and Lu Ning with suspicion: "Which of you is Qin Xiang?"

Yes, that's me.

Looking at the person in charge, Qin Xiang suddenly had a bad feeling.

Should we make her testify?

Qin Xiang felt a surge of joy: "I'm in the same class as Ningning, and I know that her grades are usually quite poor. Although she worked hard to improve her grades in the last few months, I think that maybe Lu Ning will have an extraordinary performance this time and become a dark horse."

"We didn't come to you to ask these questions."

Lu Dongyou frowned and said, "Then you can investigate Lu Ning, why ask Xiangxiang?"

"That's right, the person we're here to investigate for cheating is named Qin Xiang, not Lu Ning."

After those words were spoken, the ward fell into an eerie silence.

Lu Ning raised an eyebrow. No wonder, they were quite quick.

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiang exclaimed in surprise, "Why are you investigating me? I didn't cheat."

But Qin Xiang was extremely flustered inside.

Weren't they here to investigate Lu Ning's cheating? How did the investigation turn to themselves?

Could it be that my little trick that day was discovered?

Qin Xiang felt uneasy.

Lu Dongyou also said in surprise, "That's right, the person reported for cheating is Lu Ning. Are you sure you haven't mistaken the person?"

"There's no mistake, the person we're here to investigate is Qin Xiang. We need to ask her some questions."

Qin Xiang took a few steps back guiltily, then looked at Lu Dongyou pleadingly: "Brother, I really didn't cheat. What do they mean by this? Are they accusing me of cheating?"

We absolutely must not find out that she cheated!

Otherwise, she's finished!
