In the past, he had always felt that it was an honor for Wen Xin to be specially recruited. However, after hearing Mu Chengxi’s words, he now understood that it was normal for Wen Xin to decline the offer to join Beijing University.
“Then… Can I pull some strings and hire Wen Xin to be a professor at our Beijing University School of Medicine? As long as she passes the assessment, she will immediately be given the title of professor and enjoy the highest treatment.”
“She probably won’t be interested now. When she’s interested in the future, I will help you ask.”
Mu Chengxi hung up the phone abruptly after he finished speaking. He was waiting for Beijing University’s official Weibo account to clarify things before
he gets Wen Xin out of the police station.
Geng Qiu sat smugly in the police station. Su Li had urged Geng Qiu more than once to go back and wait for news, but she was unwilling to leave. She wanted to verify Wen Xin’s charges. Then she would use the piano in exchange for her withdrawing the lawsuit. This way, Wen Xin’s scandal would be exposed, and she would get the piano. It would be a win-win situation.
At that moment, there was a sudden commotion in the police station. Everyone was whispering to each other. A police officer walked up to Geng Qiu and spoke in a serious voice.
“Miss Geng, Miss Su, let’s check again. Are you sure that Du Luqing and Wen Xin conspired to impersonate a professor from Beijing University to commit fraud?”
“Of course, I’m sure. That day, when we were having dinner with Du Luqing and Zhuge Jingming at the hotel, Du Luqing took the initiative to expose his identity. He even told my mother to persuade Wen Xin to join Beijing University’s medical school. Although he didn’t mention the issue of money, it was obviously a scam.” Geng Qiu said righteously.
She was very confident that Du Luqing could not possibly be a Beijing University professor. Moreover, Zhuge Jingming had been stopping Du Luqing from speaking that day. He must have known the inside story and did not want Du Luqing to cooperate with Wen Xin to lie.
The policeman looked at Geng Qiu with eyes full of sympathy. This gaze made Geng Qiu even more certain that Wen Xin had been convicted.
“Miss Geng, I advise you to look at what is happening online before considering whether to withdraw the charges. Otherwise, the consequences may have a huge impact on you.”
“What influence can I have? I’m just reporting the swindler truthfully. I can’t possibly allow the swindler to deceive others, right?” Geng Qiu spoke indignantly. She did not notice the change in the looks of everyone around her.
Su Li, sitting at the side, clearly felt that the gazes of the surrounding police officers were not quite right. She took out her phone and logged into Weibo. The Weibo was filled with official news from Beijing University.
Not only did the news prove Du Luqing’s identity, but it also included all the formal procedures for Wen Xin’s special enrollment two years ago, as well as Wen Xin’s academic papers and Tan Xingyue’s surgical records.
[This is simply like a god in the world, okay? To be able to cure a person who had been paralyzed for many years. I’m afraid even the people in the research institute can’t do this, right?]
[My God, what kind of fairy sister is this? So what if she dropped out of junior high? She’s a genius. I’m a medical student. I’ve read the academic paper from two years ago. I know how much the medical data she provided has affected medical research.]
[I’m also from Beijing University’s Medical School. I’ve heard about this matter too. At that time, our student council president even went to Ancient Town Square with Professor Du. He said that not only was that student’s medical skills good, but she was also very good-looking. Unfortunately, there was no [We accept the fact that your medical skills are high, but your looks are too good to be true. Please post a photo!]
[Let me tell you something that none of you will believe. I heard that half a year ago, when Old Madam Mu fell ill, a young lady with the surname Wen cured her. I just don’t know if it was the same person. I heard she had a set of golden needles that are priceless!]
[D*mn, golden needles…What kind of person is worthy of a golden needle? It’s impossible, right?]
[What’s impossible about it? She’s already able to create a medical miracle at the age of eighteen. It’s not too much to have a set of golden needles!]
[Aren’t those people who scolded us coming out to apologize? How could you internet trolls slander our fairy sister? Come out and apologize!]
[Thanks to the official Beijing University Weibo for clearing our divine sister’s innocence!!]
The netizens’ discussions were like knives stabbing into Su Li’s chest. She did not want to believe it, but the truth was right in front of her.
Su Li’s hands involuntarily trembled. She…What did she do, and what did she miss?
If Geng Shikui had treated Wen Xin well, would his illness not have progressed to a point where it could not be cured even after spending a hundred million?
With Wen Xin around, why would she need to spend a hundred million to hire someone to treat Geng Shikui?
“Geng Qiu, shut up! Don’t say anymore!” Su Li now knew the truth. She sternly berated Geng Qiu, telling her to stop talking.
Geng Qiu was startled by Su Li’s sudden scolding. She turned to look at Su Li in panic and frowned. “Mom, do you know what you’re talking about? Why are you protecting Wen Xin? I’m telling the truth. We can’t condone liars…”
“Liar? Her identity as a professor at Beijing University is real. How is she a liar?”
Mu Chengxi walked into the police station with light steps. His tone was cold and deep, giving off a chilling feeling.
At this moment, the bureau chief rushed in from outside, followed by Zhao Honghan.
When Zhao Honghan saw Mu Chengxi, he was very puzzled. He had not seen him for many years; why was he so free now?
“What’s going on? What’s going on? The Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau called me, saying that someone in my jurisdiction had arrested the vice dean of Beijing University Medical College, and they even called the person a fraudster? What’s happening? Don’t you verify identities when you arrest people?”
The director was wearing a set of pajamas. It was obvious that he was sleeping when he was woken up by the phone call and rushed over to deal with this matter.
“Chief, we…we also received a call from Miss Geng and Mrs. Geng. They said that they were sure that Du Luging was a liar. They also said that if they didn’t act, the suspect would escape. So, we arrested him. We didn’t expect… things to turn around.”
The police station was in chaos. Mu Chengxi was pulled to the side by Zhao Honghan. Zhao Honghan looked at Mu Chengxi cautiously. “Does this matter have anything to do with that young lady?”
Noticing how Zhao Honghan addressed Wen Xin, Mu Chengxi raised his eyebrows slightly. “It’s fine if Zhao Yuyao calls her Little Aunt, but why do you call her that too?”
“Is this the main point? More importantly, how did she get involved again? She hasn’t been in Ice City for long, so she has really caused a lot of trouble…”
“It’s not that she’s causing trouble. It’s just that someone keeps bothering her.” Mu Chengxi calmly looked in the direction of the interrogation room. His tone was indignant—there was nothing wrong with his little descendant.
After about five minutes, Du Luqing came out of the interrogation room, but Wen Xin was nowhere to be seen..
