At eight o'clock sharp the next morning.
The venue in the middle of the village was packed with people.
"What do you think the old village chief has summoned us all here for?"
"I don't know, but seeing that everybody from the village, young and old, has come, this thing is likely not small."
"Yeah, probably it's going to be an announcement about changing the village chief. After all, Chen Yu has done such disgusting things, being the village chief won't last for her."
The villagers had all kinds of opinions, each adopting a spectators' attitude.
And at this moment, the village chief slowly ascended the podium.
"Everyone, I want to announce something very important to all of you..."
With a voice aged and worn, the village chief recounted the summary of the situation to everyone, then called out Zhao Tienan to explain clearly to the crowd.
All of a sudden, all eyes were on Zhao Tienan.
Including the failed alliance of Song Nan and the others.
"You may not know yet that videos are not foolproof evidence because someone can maliciously edit them."
"Yesterday, I went to the township to crack the video provided by Hou Rui. Professionals clearly stated that the video was fake and had been altered by someone."
"So, Chen Yu was wronged; she never did those dirty deeds, someone was manipulating things behind the scenes."
As soon as he spoke, Zhao Tienan's finger pointed at Hou Rui.
"What?"
Hou Rui was astonished.
He never expected Zhao Tienan to detect the video was fake, even more so that he could find someone to crack it.
Once the video is restored or taken to relevant departments for examination, everything will be exposed.
And as the provider of false evidence, Hou Rui wouldn't escape the consequences, he might even end up going to jail because of it.
"Zhao Tienan, what nonsense are you talking?"
"You say the video is fake and it's fake?"
"Look at your own character, do you really think we're easy to fool? Get lost!"
Hou Rui immediately retorted, stirring up the emotions of the villagers, initially trying to kick Zhao Tienan out.
"I see you're the type who won't cry unless you see the coffin."
"Since you dare to act so rudely, I won't be polite!"
Zhao Tienan said mildly, then invited a man in his sixties onto the stage.
"Hiss..."
Suddenly, everyone gasped.
This old man was rumored to have had relations with Chen Yu, the retired official? Why was he here today!
"Dear villagers, I must state that the person in that video is not me, but someone maliciously spliced my portrait into it. The township head can testify for me, as I have been in Hebei recuperating with him for the last few days..."
The elderly man declared loudly, resolving the misunderstanding on the spot.
Moreover, he had already reported to the relevant departments, and Hou Rui, speechless, was taken away on site.
"Villagers, Chen Yu has never done anything against discipline; she is still our village's legitimate village chief, and we hope you continue to support her as always..."
Leaving this final message, the elderly man directly descended the podium accompanied by a group of township leaders.
Up until now, the truth had completely surfaced.
And the mastermind will pay a terribly painful price.
"I said, I would clear your name."
"Go on stage and say a few words, Village Chief Chen, give the villagers a solid stance."
Zhao Tienan slightly raised the corners of his mouth, speaking to the beside him moved-to-tears Chen Yu.
