Chapter 127 The Most Outstanding
Chen Yang stood nearby and watched this scene, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
Before, when Chen Yang saw his wife being bullied by Wu Yuqing and the hypocritical Liao Meili, he really couldn't help but want to rush out and slap those two b\*tches away.
But now, seeing that Liu Ran had such good popularity, with so many old classmates rushing out to support her, Chen Yang was completely at ease.
Chen Yang's gaze swept over Wu Yuqing and Liao Meili, a cold smile forming in his heart.
This time, at the Qingzhou University ceremony, he wanted to seize the opportunity to thoroughly investigate all the injustices his wife had suffered back then.
Not only the matter of Liu Ran being expelled for plagiarism, but also how the scars on Liu Ran's face came to be.
Chen Yang turned and blended into the crowd, disappearing on the outskirts of Qingzhou University.
Seeing Gao Juan and the others enthusiastically embracing Liu Ran, one student couldn't help but scratch his head and say, "Sisters, what's going on? You've all confused me."
"Didn't Senior Sister Wu Yuqing and Senior Sister Liao Meili just say she was a plagiarist? Why are you hugging her like this now?"
Gao Juan let Liu Ran down. Although she was a girl, she was tall and strong, with a straightforward personality and a sense of justice.
Gao Juan immediately turned to the student union members and said, "Plagiarist? Are you saying Liu Ran is a plagiarist? Do you know who the most famous genius student in the Design School for the past 20 years is? Let me tell you, it's the woman next to me."
"This is Professor Wang. He's now the dean of the Design School, and Dean Wang himself said so. If you don't believe me, you can call Dean Wang and ask him."
The surrounding student union members were all surprised to hear this.
"Ah? She's actually called the most talented student in 20 years by Dean Wang?"
"If she's so talented, why didn't she get her diploma and degree certificate and was instead expelled?"
"What exactly happened with that plagiarism incident?"
Gao Juan immediately said with a cold laugh, "Bullshit plagiarism, it's just the school covering up for some people."
"Do you know who designed the paintings on the east wall of the Design School that represent the future of the Design School? Do you know who won second prize in a national design competition in their second year? Do you know who the youngest student union president of Qingzhou University is?"
The surrounding students' eyes widened as they heard this.
Gao Juan immediately patted Liu Ran's shoulder and said, "Let me tell you, it's Liu Ran. The design icons currently displayed on the outer walls of our Design School were all designed by Liu Ran for free during her sophomore and junior years."
"Liu Ran has won no less than 10 awards in national design competitions before. Furthermore, Liu Ran was specially promoted to student union president in the first semester of her sophomore year and served until her junior year."
"So, you little kids, you better show some respect to Senior Sister Liu Ran, because you are all just her juniors!"
The students from the student union around them suddenly erupted in loud discussion, their words beginning to carry admiration and pride for Liu Ran.
At this moment, one of the girls asked doubtfully, "But Senior Sister Wu Yuqing just said that she was the chairman of your student union in her junior year, and she also said that Senior Sister Liu Ran never received her diploma or degree certificate."
Gao Juan laughed heartily. She glanced dismissively at Wu Yuqing and Liao Meili and said, "That's because Liu Ran encountered the most unfortunate event of her life in her junior year, so she stepped down from the student union presidency. It was then that Wu Yuqing took over as student union president. Otherwise, with Wu Yuqing's grades and talent at the time, how could she have possibly competed with Liu Ran?"
"As for the graduation design plagiarism incident, let me ask you this: would such a talented and outstanding person like Liu Ran need to plagiarize her classmates' work for a diploma?"
"Any of her previous works, if taken out, could easily qualify someone as an outstanding graduate. She's not brain-damaged, so why would she plagiarize the graduation work of a student with very ordinary grades?"
"So, there was a reason for everything. It's just that the administrators at the school back then were too dark and chaotic. Without further investigation, they determined the outcome and made Liu Ran withdraw from school."
"Also, do you know who the most beautiful campus belle of Qingzhou University is?"
At this time, one of the girls excitedly raised her arm and said, "I know this! Qingzhou University holds a campus belle election every year, but the most beautiful campus belle is definitely Senior Sister Su Ya. I remember Senior Sister Su Ya was voted campus belle for two and a half consecutive years while she was at school!"
"She's beautiful, her family background is good, and her academic performance is even better. In her junior year, she was already scouted by Harvard abroad!"
Gao Juan said proudly, "Yes, yes, yes, you're mostly right. But do you know why Su Ya was the campus belle for two and a half years? Because for the latter half of the year, the campus belle was Liu Ran, who is next to me."
"When Liu Ran entered the school in her freshman year, she hadn't yet revealed her talent, so Su Ya was still the campus belle for the first half of the year. But by the second half of the year, the campus belle of Qingzhou University that year had become Senior Sister Liu Ran, who is next to me."
"So, for such a legendary woman, do you still dare to question her or stop her here?"
The students from the student union heard Gao Juan say this, and they were all filled with immense admiration. They immediately stepped forward and apologized to Liu Ran one after another.
One boy excitedly said to Liu Ran, "Senior Sister Liu Ran, please forgive us. We were easily misled by Senior Sister Wu Yuqing and truly believed you were a plagiarist. We apologize to you."
Liu Ran waved her hand. Her lips moved slightly, but she couldn't utter many words.
Seeing her classmates from back then defending her so fiercely, she was deeply touched. She had thought that after disappearing for these past few years, when she met her classmates again, they would surely despise her and think she had brought shame to the class. But she never expected that people like Gao Juan would be so loyal, and that they would see clearly in their hearts that she would never resort to plagiarism.
Wu Yuqing stood rooted to the spot, her legs trembling uncontrollably. She was furious and unwilling to accept this. She never imagined that on this centennial anniversary celebration, she would encounter Liu Ran again.
Back then, she had schemed and worked hard to completely ruin that b\*tch Liu Ran. But now, Liu Ran, a hideous monster, a good-for-nothing who didn't even have a diploma, had once again overshadowed her own brilliance the moment she appeared at the school gate, and had once again slapped her in the face.
Why Liu Ran? She had nothing now, just a hideous monster from the lowest rung of society. How dare she compete with her?
Thinking this, Wu Yuqing suddenly lunged forward. She shouted, "All of you shut up! What kind of person is this Liu Ran you're talking about? Today, I'll let everyone see with their own eyes how hypocritical and ugly this hideous monster truly is."
As Wu Yuqing spoke, she fiercely ripped at Liu Ran's sunglasses and mask.
