Xiao Yunyun blinked and replied with an “Oh”.

She did not take Luo Xiaoxi’s words seriously.

She thought that such a clever girl as Lin Zhixia wouldn’t fall twice in the same place, right?

The most important thing was that she had been disgusted. In the following days, she didn’t even want to think of Lin Zhixia, let alone be cautious of her.

In contrast, she would rather pay attention to the development of this incident.

It developed faster than Xiao Yunyun had imagined.

Lu Enterprises invited several witnesses who had happened to pass by the gate of the hospital that day. Some people said that they clearly saw Xiao Yunyun and Lin Zhixia together, and some people said that they saw Xiao Yunyun hand a document folder to Lin Zhixia.

Why did these passers-by remember it so clearly after so many days?

The reason given by the passers-by was very straightforward—both of them were rare beauties, and they couldn’t help looking at them a few more times, so they were very impressed.

Then via a livestream on the Internet, Lu Enterprises hired an engineer to analyze how the surveillance video taken away by Xiao Yunyun from the bank was falsified. Finally, the real video was restored—

The person who deposited the money was obviously Lin Zhixia’s cousin—Lin Zhiqiu.

Of course, it was not Xiao Yunyun’s bank card that was inserted by Lin Zhiqiu.

As soon as the real video was released, the Internet was in an uproar, and the topic’s popularity reached a new high. Gossip sections of the major forums were flooded with posts about this incident.

Finally, under the arrangement of Lu Enterprises, Ms. Lin was interviewed by a reporter of Tang Enterprise Media.

In the interview, Ms. Lin admitted that she and Lin Zhixia were friends and that before Mr. Lin’s operation, she had asked the latter if she had to give a red packet to the surgeon and got a clear reply that the surgeon generally wouldn’t accept it because of the hospital rules.

“And then?” The reporter asked, “There are so many surgeons involved in the operation. How could you think of giving the red packet to Miss Xiao?”

“This is also what Lin Zhixia told me.” Ms. Lin said regretfully, “She said that interns were less experienced, so it was easier for them to trust patients. Among the surgeons and nurses who participated in the operation, only Dr. Xiao was an intern, so I gave her the red packet. Later, my father’s operation failed, and Lin Zhixia told me to make a fuss about the red packet, so that the hospital and the surgeons would pay more attention to my father’s condition and give him better treatment.”

Seeing this, Xiao Yunyun couldn’t help cursing, “Shameless!”

Lin Zhixia was also working in the hospital, and Xiao Yunyun couldn’t imagine that she actually said such a thing.

Mr. Lin was in a coma, and Dr. Xu and Dr. Liang would try their best to save him. They would not let go of anything that could wake Mr. Lin up. It had nothing to do with whether Ms. Lin was making trouble or not.

On the contrary, if Ms. Lin made a fuss, it would distract Dr. Xu’s attention.

Not only did Lin Zhixia smear the doctor’s profession, but she also smeared Dr. Xu’s professional ethics by twisting the facts.

What was more shameless was that Lin Zhixia did that just to let Ms. Lin make a fuss for her own personal purpose.

Lin Zhixia’s plan didn’t succeed, but she successfully refreshed Xiao Yunyun’s sense of shamelessness.

Luo Xiaoxi was not surprised.

She had long reminded Xiao Yunyun that Lin Zhixia was not as kind and simple as she seemed.

In the interview video, the reporter continued to ask Ms. Lin, “The staff inside the hospital revealed that Dr. Xiao had said that she had given the money to Lin Zhixia. Why didn’t you ask Lin Zhixia about it but insisted that Dr. Xiao had taken the money?”

“Well…” Ms. Lin looked very regretful. “I trusted Lin Zhixia too much. Most importantly, I didn’t know Doctor Xiao’s identity at that time. I… I’m here to apologize to Doctor Xiao. I hope she can forgive me.”

So far, the truth of the incident had been revealed. Lin Zhixia secretly pushed everything forward with an innocent look and made Xiao Yunyun take all the blame.

The netizens mocked that the word “scheming” could no longer be used to describe Lin Zhixia. She was simply the ace of the scheming women. Xiao Yunyun was also very unlucky to meet her and even have a car accident.

The netizens started to talk about asking the Eighth Hospital and the Department of Medicine of University A to clear Xiao Yunyun’s name.

Under the pressure of the netizens and the two major groups of Lu Enterprises and the Cheng An Group, the Eighth Hospital and the Department of Medicine of University A reacted quickly and both announced that they would cancel the punishment on Xiao Yunyun and restore her job and identity as a student.

After bringing fairness back to Xiao Yunyun, the netizens swarmed to Lin Zhixia and rummaged through all her social accounts.

Then, the netizens found that in daily life, Lin Zhixia was simply the best spokesperson for “goddesses”.

She recorded her life and uploaded beautiful photos of the scenery and delicacies. She occasionally posted some brief reflections on life that were full of positive energy.

She would repost nothing but important news or something related to charity.

She would also occasionally post some photos of people. Whether it was her or her friend who took photos with her, every one of them had delicate skin and exquisite facial features and looked particularly pleasing to the eye.

They checked the comments, and found that a group of people below had shouted:

“Goddess!”

“The real goddess. I like to see your posts the most. I think you are the best girl in the world. Come on.”

“It’s so nice of you to beautify others in the group photos. My goddess is really a good person!”

Lin Zhixia was like a miracle. She had a lot of fans on all her social accounts, but had never received any bad comments.

The netizens couldn’t help sighing that Lin Zhixia was really good at covering herself up. It would be a waste of resources if she didn’t become an actor.

If it weren’t for this incident, no one would have known Lin Zhixia’s true colors. She would be the eternal and unreachable goddess in everyone’s heart.

In order not to let others be deceived by her, the netizens tried their best to launch an all-out verbal attack on Lin Zhixia and reveal her true colors on all her social accounts.

In addition, the Public Relations Department of Lu Enterprises secretly added fuel to the fire. For a time, the name “Lin Zhixia” replaced the word “scheming”. The netizens no longer directly scolded a person for being scheming, but said in a roundabout way, “Well, it’s very Lin Zhixia,” or “Did Lin Zhixia send you here?”

Lin Zhixia’s image, which she had painstakingly created for so many years, was completely destroyed. She even became the one everyone disdained.

Luo Xiaoxi was too satisfied with the result and said, “Lin Zhixia is famous.”

In this world, there were two kinds of famous people.

One was the positive repute as an idol, along with a change in the trajectory of one’s life.

The other had the notoriety as a clown, along with the twists and turns in the trajectory of one’s life.

Lin Zhixia’s popularity belonged to the latter. No matter where she went in the future, there would always be someone pointing fingers at her and gossiping about her endlessly. Her image as a goddess could not be maintained.

For Lin Zhixia, this was undoubtedly a fatal blow.

Luo Xiaoxi was looking forward to seeing what kind of person Lin Zhixia would become after she experienced this incident.

While she was thinking, Luo Xiaoxi’s cell phone rang, and Shen Yuechuan’s name was displayed on the screen.

She answered the phone in confusion. “Yuechuan?”

“It’s me.” Shen Yuechuan got straight to the point and asked, “Are you still in the hospital? Help me ask Yunyun a question.”

“I’m still in the hospital, but why don’t you ask Yunyun directly?” With that, Luo Xiaoxi pointed at Xiao Yunyun’s hand. “Shen Yuechuan said he has something to ask you.”

Xiao Yunyun stretched out her left hand and said leisurely, “Let him ask me directly.”

“What a tsundere he is! You can ask me directly. Why do you have to ask me in a roundabout way?”

Luo Xiaoxi didn’t ask for Shen Yuechuan’s opinion and directly handed the phone to Xiao Yunyun.

Xiao Yunyun smiled. “Shen Yuechuan, what’s the matter?”

Only then did Shen Yuechuan realize that it was indeed unnecessary for him to find Xiao Yunyun through Luo Xiaoxi—how could Xiao Yunyun let go of this opportunity?

He said in a deep voice, “Some reporters want to interview you and listen to your feelings about this incident. You…”

“I don’t want to be interviewed.” She refused without hesitation. “But can you help me send a message to the reporters?”

“What message?”

Shen Yuechuan estimated that it wouldn’t be sweet words.

Sure enough, Xiao Yunyun opened her mouth and shouted, “Tell the reporters that Lin Zhixia’s words are bullshit! Aside from the family members, doctors are the ones who want the patients to recover the most. Even if the family members don’t speak, we will do our best to try and save the patients. Lin Zhixia’s words not only misled Ms. Lin, but they are also misleading the patients and disrupting the medical order all over the world! The most serious thing is that she shamelessly smeared Dr. Xu’s professional ethics and image!”

“…” Shen Yuechuan was silent for a long time, and then asked in an unclear mood, “So, your point is the latter half of the sentence?”

Xiao Yunyun admitted it frankly. “That’s right! The most serious problem is smearing the moral character and medical ethics of Dr. Xu!”

She was also a doctor, or she was about to be a doctor. She knew what medical ethics and image meant to a doctor, especially a well-known doctor like Dr. Xu. Naturally, this question came first in her mind.

Then, Shen Yuechuan was silent for a long time, and finally, he just said coldly, “I see.”

“…”

Before Xiao Yunyun could say anything further, the phone had been hung up.

She put down her phone and fell into silence.

Luo Xiaoxi poked Xiao Yunyun and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“I suddenly feel something wrong.” Xiao Yunyun pursed her lips and thought for a moment. She really had no clue, so she simply gave up. “Forget it. Just stop thinking!”

Luo Xiaoxi couldn’t help laughing and squinted at Xiao Yunyun with interest. “Yunyun, sometimes you are really fun.”

Xiao Yunyun shrank her shoulders and said with a frightened look, “Cousin-in-law, don’t be like this…”

Luo Xiaoxi burst into laughter. “Will Yuechuan come to accompany you tonight?”

Xiao Yunyun was also confused. She had expected Shen Yuechuan to come, but just now, he had made it clear that he would not come at night.

Luo Xiaoxi saw Xiao Yunyun’s disappointment and reminded her, “You can pester him. Your cousin is afraid of my pestering.”

Xiao Yunyun thought that it was a good idea. At least Luo Xiaoxi had succeeded in winning her cousin’s heart, hadn’t she?

What she didn’t expect was that she didn’t need to pester Shen Yuechuan. He came at night and only then did she finally know why she had felt strange just now…
