Chapter 218 Dirty Revelations
Zeng Yichen turned around, his dark circles under his eyes making him look very tired.
"dad."
He silently observed Zeng Nian's expression.
His expression was no different from usual.
Zeng Nian stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"Yichen, the hardest hurdle in a relationship is trust."
His words were earnest and heartfelt, each one conveying a loving father's comfort and guidance to his child.
Zeng Yichen was stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant and could naturally deduce his intention.
If he were to break up with Ji Ran at this point, Zeng Nian's weekend plans would be ruined.
However, that was precisely the purpose of his making an issue of this matter on the phone yesterday.
Zeng Yichen took a deep breath and shook his head.
"Dad, please stop trying to persuade me. I realize now that I misjudged him."
I've broken up with her, and I never want to see her again.
As expected, upon hearing Zeng Yichen's words, Zeng Yan's expression showed displeasure. Suppressing his impatience, he continued to persuade him:
“I believe that child is a positive person. Dad has a good eye for people, you know that.”
Zeng Yichen didn't want to listen anymore.
"Dad! I want to be alone."
With that, he turned and walked straight towards his room.
As Zeng Nian watched his retreating figure, suspicion and scheming crept into the corners of his eyes.
At this point, the network finally returned to normal.
Kyoto University's official account immediately released Ji Ran's entire resume upon entering the university.
Including her solving a problem related to the construction of artificial cells at the age of 9 with her unique ideas, which led to her being exceptionally admitted to Peking University to begin her master's and doctoral studies.
He graduated at the age of 14 and was offered a high-paying position at Kyoto University as a professor of biology.
This includes proof of all the achievements of professors of this age. Even renowned Chinese biologist Liu Yunkang and Peking University President Li Wenshu recorded videos to vouch for Professor Ji's academic abilities.
Moreover, Liu Yunkang specifically emphasized that Professor Ji was invited to Peking University by him after repeated requests. In the end, she only reluctantly agreed to come to Peking University because she needed money to bury her grandmother, who was her only family in the orphanage.
The clarification brought the internet to the brink of collapse once again.
'Holy crap... she was admitted to university at just 9 years old! That's incredible!'
'Oh no, I'm a fan now.'
'Liu Yunkang is a household name, a national-level scientist, yet it took him three or four invitations…'
"I'm a student at Peking University. I've taken Professor Ji's class. Professor Ji is the most brilliant thinker I've ever met; what's in his mind doesn't lie. And to be honest, Professor Ji's appearance is 100 times more striking to the naked eye than in a photograph—a top-tier model face."
"I'll fight you to the death upstairs! I've applied to Professor Shen Ji's classes from my freshman year to my junior year, and I've never gotten in even once."
"Some men used to say women lacked scientific intelligence, which was definitely just boasting and hype. Now what? Come out and bark like a dog again!"
Sorry, but women are just that awesome.
"Laughing Mouse, now you can't even begin to criticize someone's academic achievements."
'But being a mistress is always a real thing, isn't it?'
"Given her achievements, as long as she doesn't kill anyone, China should still fawn over her."
'She wasn't my mistress, so what does it have to do with me? But her achievements have genuinely benefited the Chinese scientific community.'
'Where are your values, upstairs? Being a mistress is shameful.'
"Exactly! Does that mean capable people can be immoral? Can they just cheat on their partners and become mistresses?"
'Tch~ Then go ahead and criticize Boss Qin! Why are you only criticizing that young girl?'
"And it's not even certain if it's true. Saying someone committed academic fraud is false, isn't it? But just because you call someone a mistress doesn't mean they are."
"Exactly! And didn't you hear what Professor Liu said? He's an orphan. He only agreed to go to Peking University to bury his grandmother. What a wonderful kid!"
"Exactly, poor pretty kid, I don't believe it unless there's solid evidence."
……
At this moment, a gossip account suddenly released a bunch of bombshell revelations: "Professor Ji and her men."
Below are all private photos of Ji Ran with different men.
The location includes bars, karaoke rooms, luxury villas, and luxury yachts...
The photos were also specifically labeled: all have been professionally authenticated and show no signs of being photoshopped.
As soon as the news broke, those netizens who were quick to condemn evil seemed to seize the opportunity and launched a fierce attack on Ji Ran.
'Professor Ji is really showing off his skills!'
'Ugh, what a dirty woman.'
Even Boss Qin has his day when he gets cuckolded.
'No wonder she became a mistress; I bet being a mistress isn't a big deal to her.'
'She's an orphan, no wonder she's so ill-mannered. No one taught her morality; what does she know about morality?'
'You're going too far upstairs, using something like this to attack someone?'
"Are you Ji Ran's alt account upstairs? You think what you did wasn't excessive? But when someone speaks the truth, it's considered excessive?"
'Exactly, so many orphans aren't as shameless as her.'
……
Chi Tao was furious when she saw these messages online as soon as she parked her car. She immediately ran out of the parking lot to find Professor Liu and the others to discuss how to resolve the matter.
Just as I ran out of the parking lot, I ran into Ji Ran, who was riding a motorcycle to work.
"Professor Ji!" Chi Tao called out, chasing after Ji Ran's car into the parking lot.
Ji Ran parked her car and was taking off her helmet when she heard Chi Tao holding up a trending topic and chattering incessantly beside her.
She glanced at it briefly, showed no reaction, hopped off the motorcycle, and headed to the office.
"No! Professor Ji! How can you not be worried at all!" The calmer she was, the more anxious Chi Tao became. "How could anyone spread such disgusting rumors! It's ruining a girl's reputation, it's absolutely disgusting!"
Ji Ran picked at his ear. "Why are you so angry when you know it's a rumor?"
"..." Chi Tao was speechless. "No! It's precisely because it's a rumor that I'm angry! Why spread rumors like that!"
Ji Ran couldn't understand this logic and was too lazy to bother with it.
Chi Tao was sulking, but she could only follow beside her.
Some students and teachers he encountered on the way greeted Ji Ran, but their eyes clearly showed some doubt or contempt.
Even Chi Tao could feel the hostility directed at her. Since the other person hadn't done or said anything, and she couldn't curse them, she could only grit her teeth and glare back.
Ji Ran, however, paid no attention to it and acted as if nothing had happened.
He went straight to the office.
Upon arriving at the entrance, I saw Dean Shen and Professor Liu standing there with worried expressions.
Both of them were extremely worried, fearing that the online bullying they had been experiencing these past few days might have caused psychological trauma to their child, and what if the child became depressed!
"Xiao Ran! Don't worry, the hackers are already dealing with those rumors online. We will definitely find those who spread rumors and prosecute them all!"
"Oh," Ji Ran replied casually, taking out his key and opening the office door.
The two old men breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Ji Ran seemed unaffected.
They then hurriedly followed him inside.
