Chapter 810: Reverse! Gu Mang Isn’t Better Than Leng Xuan At Making Someone Else Take The Rap

Old Master Leng stood up with an anxious look. “Head Elder, Leng Xuan cannot go out there and apologize! If she does, her reputation will be thoroughly ruined!”

Now, Leng Xuan was anxious as well. Nothing was scarier than knowing that someone was about to push her off a cliff and that everyone else around her was eager to see her fall.

At that moment, discussions on the web and in the medical field were already spiraling out of control.

If she were to go out and apologize, she could imagine how badly she would be criticized.

This outcome was what she had planned for Gu Mang but Leng Xuan had set herself up instead!

Elder Bi said, “Leng Xuan cannot apologize publicly. We cannot afford to humiliate someone so important in the Elders’ Association.”

The other elders agreed. “Yeah, are there no other solutions to this matter?”

Elder Bi thought about it and looked at the Head Elder. “Did the recording only contain Leng Lin’s voice?”

In other words, she wanted to make Leng Lin the scapegoat so that they could protect Leng Xuan’s reputation. The Head Elder looked up and narrowed his sharp eyes.

…

At 2pm, Jijing Island’s Ministry of Information, along with the staff involved in the incident, gave all the participating teams and universities a satisfactory answer in response to the negative impact caused by the change in results.

This incident was in the media spotlight.

Everyone was waiting for their local official media outlets to share the video that was published by Jijing Island’s Ministry of Information.

Qin Fang tuned into the live-stream and waited for them to reveal everything.

But when the correspondent from the Ministry of Information brought Leng Lin up instead of Leng Xuan, he couldn’t help but frown.

In the video, the correspondent from the Ministry of Information gave an official speech.

Leng Lin bowed deeply towards the camera. “I would like to express my sincere apology for changing the results of such an important international competition. I would like to directly apologize to the team from Capital University as well as personally apologize to Gu Mang.”

Camera flashes illuminated the room as photographers went crazy, trying to get shots of Leng Lin apologizing.

Leng Lin stood still and continued, “I had some grievances toward Elder Leng. I tried to frame her by making it seem that she had told me to change the results.”

Qin Fang was not in the mood to listen any further. Leng Lin was just trying to clear Leng Xuan’s name and put all the blame on himself.

Qin Fang had always felt that Jijing Island was rather mysterious. They were way ahead of the other countries in terms of technology, academics, and weaponry.

He didn’t expect that they would also be a leader in shamelessness.

Who were they trying to fool?!

Qin Fang turned to Gu Mang, who was sitting at the bar and typing on the computer. Then, he shouted, “Sister, the Elders’ Association made Leng Lin take the fall. Leng Xuan didn’t show up.”

Click! Gu Mang tapped on the ‘Enter’ key and her hands paused. Gu Mang’s eyes narrowed slightly. They were dark like a chilly lake in winter.

Lu Chengzhou glanced at Gu Mang and logged into his Weibo to look at the comments.

Jijing Island made some promises at the news conference in order to prevent any future scandals.

Number 1: In the future, the results of the written test will be released on the spot to prevent any slip-ups.

With Jijing Island’s technology, they were fully able to achieve such a feat.

Number 2: Leng Lin will be fired from the Academic Center. All the losses incurred by Capital University and Gu Mang will be dealt with in private. We assure that both Capital University and Gu Mang will be satisfied.

The nature of the comments online changed. Initially, all of the comments were scolding Leng Xuan and wanting her to apologize publicly. Now, they were all scolding Leng Lin instead.

Although some people still did not believe the news and thought that Leng Lin was just a fall guy, such comments were quickly buried by newer ones very quickly.

Meanwhile, in Jijing Island’s netspace…

“I knew that Elder Leng wasn’t that kind of person! She got into the Elders’ Association when she was just 18 years old. Not only is she the youngest Elder, she is also the youngest Elder in the medical association. Why would she go against Gu Mang, someone who is inferior to her in every way?”

“Right? I knew it. She was clearly framed!”

“Ha. Even if she broke a record by scoring 100 points, she is still far behind Elder Leng.”

“From what I know, Gu Mang doesn’t seem to have many achievements. She has never published any papers and she does not have many accomplishments in the medical field.”

“Yeah, she’s almost unknown in the medical world and yet she’s trying to step on Elder Leng in an attempt to make a name for herself.”

“I wonder what they were thinking? How could they say that Elder Leng was against Gu Mang? Do they not have any brains to think with?”

“Shouldn’t those who criticized Elder Leng apologize to her?”

Tide was turning in favor of Leng Xuan.
