Chapter 807: Not Even Someone Who Suffered From Ten Years of Cerebral Thrombosis Would Pull Such a Foolish Stunt
The smile on the Head Elder’s face slipped away. “What do you mean by that?”
Old Master Leng, Leng Xuan, and the others all turned their gazes to Gu Mang.
Gu Mang leaned back against the chair while shaking her phone. “I just sent the video footage and recording to all the media outlets worldwide. Oh, that includes Jijing Island’s media outlets too.”
The next second, the cell phones of the Head Elder, Old Master Leng, Leng Xuan, and Leng Yun started ringing at the same time.
For a moment, the entire meeting room was filled with the sound of ringtones.
They were all anxious and terrified. Nobody had expected Gu Mang to make a move without any warning. They did not even have time to react.
…
Meanwhile, at Red Flame.
Gu Si was squatting on a chair. He suddenly burst out cackling while sucking on a lollipop. The computer screen in front of him showed images of the various jumbotrons on Jijing Island and the thick cell phone next to him kept vibrating with all the new messages coming in. He picked it up and entered the ‘10,000 ways to make a killing’ WeChat group.
[Lin Shuang: @Gu Si, you made Leng Xuan hit the headlines again. I believe all the schools and academic media must be in disarray now. Even the capital’s media outlets are in a chaotic state! You’re impressive!]
Gu Si’s small fingers tapped on the phone’s screen. [It’s no big deal. [Shy]]
On Shadow League’s end, Lin Shuang’s mouth twitched when she saw the emoticon Gu Si sent.
Jijing Island had always kept their internal affairs strictly confidential. Even if any news was leaked, it was screened by Jijing Island’s news headquarters. However, everyone had come to know of Jijing Island’s leading medical expert through the incident in Country Z and now she was exposed as having tarnished the reputation of a major international competition. This matter made the world question the integrity of all of Jijing Island’s academic competitions.
Second Master Lu, Yu Shu, and several small families had also received the news. They were all waiting to see the news of Gu Mang coming in last place at the competition and the Capital University team being blacklisted by Jijing Island, but contrary to their expectations, news of Leng Xuan manipulating the competition results was reported everywhere instead.
All the major news outlets were sharing the news, so it did not take more than a few minutes before Leng Xuan topped the trending list again. Nasty comments about her were everywhere.
[For those who don’t know, this sort of competition is an avenue for schools to make a name for themselves on an international platform. It plays a part in the school ranking, so can you imagine how important the competition results are to the individual schools?]
[Holy cow, how bold of her to pull such a stunt in a major international competition?!]
[Exactly! It’s such a despicable act!]
[Our academic god got a perfect score again! I’m jealous!]
[Get Leng Xuan to make a public apology!]
…
At the Academic Center.
The site where the results were announced completely erupted into chaos when the big screen showed the footage of Gu Mang turning in her exam and the side-by-side image of the backs of the exam paper. This was solid proof of Leng Xuan manipulating Gu Mang’s score.
Be it the winning team or the losing team, nobody wanted to acknowledge the competition results for there was no guarantee that the results would not be manipulated again.
“I thought that this was the most prestigious competition in the medical world, but it turned out to be trash.”
“If the medical competition’s results can be changed so easily, what about the other competitions?”
“Is the winner up to Jijing Island to decide?”
“To think we spent so much time and effort preparing for the competition. They can easily wipe out our effort and change our perfect score to a 59 instead.”
“There’s no point in competing anymore…”
The Academic Center was completely out of control. The helpless Academic Center staff could only tell everyone to go back to their rooms and promise to give them a satisfactory explanation regarding this matter as soon as possible.
…
Gu Mang left the meeting room and parted ways with Old Master Bai at the Academic Center’s entrance. While she was on her way back to the hotel, she received a call from Gu Si.
“Tsk, not even someone who suffered from ten years of cerebral thrombosis would pull such a foolish stunt.”
Gu Mang had put her phone on speaker mode so what Gu Si said was heard loud and clear by everyone.
The corners of He Yidu’s and Qin Fang’s lips twitched. He sure doesn’t mince his words.
“Someone as brainless as her dreamt of doing you in?” Gu Si rolled his eyes. “Dream on!”
