I forgot to bring a black pen, so I used a red one to fill out my college entrance exam.
The proctor warned me that I’d be marked as a cheater. I shrugged. “Then go ahead and mark me down as one.”
But the school beauty, who ranked third from the bottom, panicked.
In my previous life, on the day we went to school to collect our admission notices, I had already been guaranteed a place at one of the top universities, yet I was the only one who didn’t receive an admission letter.
It was all because Shen Mingyue, the school beauty, had used the System to swap our college entrance exam scores.
With a score of zero, my guaranteed admission was revoked.
I demanded an investigation into the grading, but Shen Mingyue, who had become the exam’s dark horse, said,
“Chen Nian, you got caught because you couldn’t cheat on the college entrance exam!”
“Everyone knows you only got a guaranteed place by cheating. How dare you claim you’re innocent?”
I went to my homeroom teacher to prove my innocence.
But I never expected him to turn to the camera and sob, “I tried to warn Chen Nian in private, too. Cheating is unfair to the other students.”
“But Chen Nian used his family’s influence to threaten me and told me to mind my own business.”
Overnight, I was thrust into the eye of the storm.
Before I could explain, some extremists dragged me to the roof and pushed me off.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day before the college entrance exam.
