From Sidekick to Bigshot Novel - Chapter 355
Chapter 355: Not Allowed to Cry
There were two things that made Luo Xiuen happy:
First of all, her idol had called her on his own initiative! Her life was completed!
Secondly, there was someone who wanted Jian Yiling to clarify that she hadn’t plagiarized herself.
And thus, Luo Xiuen called Jian Yiling to share her happiness.
“Then?” Jian Yiling asked Luo Xiuen.
Upon hearing Jian Yiling’s soft questioning voice, Luo Xiuen’s laughter stopped abruptly: “Ummm… I didn’t say anything… I was going to reassure him that our Dr. F.S would help him clarify the situation to the public. However, I heard his voice and I got nervous… So I just hung up the call without saying anything…”
She had just… Just hung up the call?!
Jian Yiling hung up the call with Luo Xiuen after she told her “I’ll call him.” Then, she immediately called Jian Yumin.
Jian Yiling was afraid of Jian Yumin misunderstanding Luo Xiuen’s actions. She didn’t want him to worry.
As soon as the call went through, she didn’t even get the chance to say a word before Jian Yumin started speaking. He spoke in a very sad and anxious voice:
“Crybaby, please don’t be worried! Please don’t cry! Don’t let the tears out! Although I failed to get Luo Xiuen to help us, the situation is still fine! She just hung up on me… But don’t worry! I’ll drag Luo Xun and the other two to convince her with me. It’ll definitely work!” Jian Yumin did not want to hear Jian Yiling crying. He was afraid of her crying.
As long as she didn’t cry, everything else was going to be fine.
However, if one tear fell, he would be completely helpless.
“No need.”
“What? Why is there no need? Crybaby, don’t worry about it. We’ll go to the Huiling Medical Research Institution in a few minutes!” Jian Yumin said. He was ready to leave already.
“It’s settled,” Jian Yiling said in a hurry.
“Crybaby, don’t you dare lie to me! If you lie to me… You’ll… You’ll… You’ll become ugly!”
“I’m not lying.”
“But the situation still has not been cleared up on the Internet.”
“It’ll be cleared up soon.”
“Oh… Does that mean that you’re really not crying?”
“No.” This time, Jian Yiling’s answer was more firm than her previous replies.
“Oh… That’s good then.”
Jian Yumin was awfully relieved to hear this.
###
On the side of the Huiling Medical Research Institution, everyone was also quite concerned about the matter.
The incident hadn’t made much of a splash in their academic circles. However, although the incident wasn’t that serious, it was still a big deal for a high school student.
Jian Yiling was a high school student who was trying to get into university.
If this wasn’t handled properly, a student’s future could be ruined.
Then the darling of their institution was getting bullied!
How could that happen? Did the people who orchestrated this think that the Huiling Medical Research Institution did not exist or something?
And thus, the institution immediately decided to contact journalists and inform them that they would respond to the Dr. F.S. plagiarism case.
“Why don’t we just hold a press conference?” Luo Xiuen was getting impatient.
Cheng Yi took a look at her and explained: “Sister En, please don’t be hasty. This has to be done step by step. This is not a big deal in our circle. However, if you hold a press conference all of a sudden, people will think that this matter is strange.”
“Well, we can have a press conference for something else no? Don’t we have things to publish from the Institution these days? Just publish something and then we can talk about this matter at the press conference as well. Won’t that be okay?”
Cheng Yi and several other professors looked at Luo Xiuen in surprise. That was true!
“Wow! Sister En, you’re great!” Cheng Yi was willing to concede defeat.
“Then why are you still standing here? Why don’t you hurry up and go handle the matter? Do you need me to teach you what you need to do or something?”
“Yes, yes. I’ll get to it straight away!”
