Previously, there were only pictures. The details regarding the situation could only be guessed. However, now, the video had gotten uploaded.

It was clear from the video that the man in question was indeed Mo Shiyun’s father.

When He Jianjun had been arguing with the Head of Teaching, he had taken out his household registration booklet to prove his identity. Alongside that, he even had an old photograph of the entire family.

This part of the argument had also been recorded and uploaded onto the forum.

In the video, there was also a section where Mo Shiyun had admitted that her father’s name was He Jianjun.

When Mo Shiyun’s classmates looked at her again, their eyes had completely changed.

Initially, there only had been suspicions. However, now, there was irrefutable evidence in front of them.

More importantly, Mo Shiyun had just lied to them. Previously, her classmates believed her. However, once they watched the video, they felt as though they had all been slapped in the face!

The moment Mo Shiyun saw the video, all the color on her face drained away.

Zhu Sha was even more shocked. Her eyes widened as she remembered that she had just apologized to Mo Shiyun as well.

Zhu Sha couldn’t help but become incredibly angry. She got up and started yelling at Mo Shiyun, “What’s going on here? Is this man your father or not? If he is your father, what was with your attitude just now?”

“I…” Mo Shiyun stammered. Her body trembled slightly. It was the first time that she had ever been in such an awkward situation. She was shaking from head to toe. “I… I didn’t… I just said that I wasn’t upset at you…”

“You said that you weren’t upset at me? You were basically suggesting that I had misunderstood you! You were just using me to deny the relationship that you have with the man in the photo!”

Zhu Sha wasn’t stupid. Mo Shiyun hadn’t said much to her a while ago. However, now that she looked back on the situation, she realized that Mo Shiyun had been suggesting that her earlier speculations were false.

“I really didn’t mean that. You’re thinking too much.” Mo Shiyun explained.

“Yes, yes, yes. I’m the one who is thinking too much about the situation! I mean I guess I’m not wrong to think that your father is a bastard! You’re not much better than him either! Like father, like daughter!”

Zhu Sha was furious. She was angry because of Mo Shiyun’s ambiguous attitude a while ago. For the longest time, she had assumed that Mo Shiyun was a long time friend of the Jian family.

However now, she realized that she had gotten deceived.

As it was still during their self-study period, the rest of the class had heard the entirety of Zhu Sha and Mo Shiyun’s argument.

All of a sudden, Mo Shiyun felt that everyone was looking at her differently. Her entire body went cold as she became overwhelmed by a sense of humiliation that she had never felt before.

Her self-esteem had gotten shattered.

To a certain extent, she even wanted to turn around and run out of the classroom.

In the meantime, Jian Yuncheng frowned. He was currently sitting opposite Zhai Yunsheng.

Today, he had asked Yu Xi to come out. However, the person who turned up was Master Sheng.

Although the purpose of his meeting today was indeed related to Master Sheng, he hadn’t expected that Master Sheng would come to meet him alone.

Unlike Jian Yuncheng’s serious expression, Master Sheng had a smile on his lips. There was also a playful look that danced in his eyes.

“Mr. Zhai, what’s the matter?” Jian Yuncheng asked in an imposing matter.

In terms of age, he was nine years older than Zhai Yunsheng.

When he was being called a handsome young boy, Zhai Yunsheng wasn’t even born yet.

“I heard that the Jian family is one of the most powerful and prominent families in Hengyuan City. I assumed that they would be efficient and clean with the way they handled things. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case. It seems like outsiders are treating you as a joke.”

“Mr. Zhai, if you have something to say, please be straightforward about it.”

“Slam—” Zhai Yunsheng threw a bag of files in front of Jian Yuncheng.

Jian Yuncheng picked up the bag and opened it up. When he saw the contents, his face immediately darkened.
