Chapter 124 Unusual Partiality
The air in the office became stagnant again.
At this moment, Xu Yueqing suddenly raised her hand and pointed her slender index finger at the display screen.
"These photos," she said calmly, "I can tell you every single one of them: the day it was taken, the reason for it, and the circumstances under which it was taken."
Her eyes swept over the deliberately cropped and color-adjusted photos, her eyes full of mockery.
"As for the words accompanying it, every single one of them is nonsense."
"That's right!" Chen Gang's pent-up anger boiled over again. Upon hearing Xu Yueqing's words, he immediately agreed, "Old Wang! I, Chen Gang, have been a distinguished professor at the research institute for many years! This is the first time I've encountered such a scandal! I've completely lost face!"
"Yueqing and I are innocent. We have a teacher-student relationship! We must find out who is behind this! I want to see who is so restless as to dare to throw such dirty water on us researchers!"
Chen Gang was so angry that he was about to spit out saliva.
"Professor Chen, Professor Chen, I know you." Wang Qin saw this and quickly said to comfort him, "I have known you for so many years, how could I not know who you are?"
Chen Gang exhaled heavily and sat back on the sofa, but his face still looked as ugly as if he had swallowed a fly.
Throughout the whole process, Ji Bingqian felt like an outsider.
He neither flew into a rage like Chen Gang nor tried to control the situation like Wang Qin.
He just looked at Xu Yueqing.
Watching her go from being calm at the beginning, to being ridiculed later, and now, taking the initiative to stand up and prove her innocence.
She was so thin and her shoulders were so frail, but now her back was straight.
Like a wild grass growing on a cliff against the strong wind, it is weak but can never be broken.
Wang Qin's gaze returned to Xu Yueqing again, and he spoke formally, "Ms. Xu, our people have just questioned you, and we will carefully review your transcript later. That's all for today. You can all go back and wait for our notice."
He paused and added a promise.
"We will investigate thoroughly and give everyone an explanation as to who is right and who is wrong."
This sounds innocent, but Xu Yueqing knows in her heart that the damage has been done from the moment the post was published.
Even if the truth is finally revealed, how many of those who have read the post will really care about the final, light-hearted clarification announcement?
They will only remember those rumors that are erotic and exciting enough.
But now, Director Wang said to wait, so she could only wait.
Xu Yueqing was about to stand up when her wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone.
It was Ji Bingqian.
Xu Yueqing turned around and met his bottomless black eyes.
He said nothing, but just pulled her and stood in front of Chen Gang and Wang Qin. He reached into his pocket with his other hand, took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"Qin Hai."
Ji Bingqian's voice was very soft, but it made the temperature in the entire office seem to drop a few degrees.
"Notify the Legal Department and hold the administrator of the Jingzhou Research Institute's internal forum accountable."
Every word he spoke was crystal clear.
"Yue Qing's reputation cannot be damaged."
The official look on Wang Qin's face was cracked.
Why does Mr. Ji protect Miss Xu so much?
Ji's legal team was a renowned "Pizza Hut" in Jingzhou, specializing in tough battles and never losing. Having them involved was no simple case of internal defamation.
