Chapter 196: Making the Surveillance Video Available to Everyone (2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
"Oh my god, what did I owe you in my past life?"
Huo Yu's wailing voice came over from the phone.
An excruciating seven to eight minutes went by.
"Okay, okay. I got it done for you. It's as you've previously requested. Go online and check it out. If there's nothing else, I'm going back to sleep. Please don't wake me before noon."
Huo Yu let out a big yawn.
Then, he muttered in a quiet voice, "I have to work hard for your company during the day already. Now, even at night, you have to wake me up to deal with your personal affairs... One of these days, I'm going to die from overworking."
Then, Huo Yu hung up the phone.
Upon hearing Huo Yu's words, Jian Yuncheng opened the Shenghua High School campus forum. He saw the post that Huo Yu had just made with his own account.
The title of the post was: [Jian Yiling was Unjustly Accused. The Truth Behind Jian Yunnao's Injury. Surveillance Video of the Incident made Public.]
The contents of the post was the complete video of the incident. It showed the scene where Jian Yunnao had fallen down the stairs.

Huo Yu had tweaked the algorithm of the post before posting it on the campus forum. Even if no one was following the post, it would be displayed at the top of the list. This was to ensure that everyone who logged on could immediately see the post.
Furthermore, Huo Yu had created another thread that he hadn't yet posted. The post revealed information about the person who had slandered Jian Yiling.
The post contained a detailed description stating that they'd already found the person who had been spreading inaccurate and slanderous information.
The security level of the Shenghua High School campus forum wasn't that high. As a result, it didn't take Huo Yu long to hack an account.
However, the strange thing was that the original owner of this account had already passed away in an accident last year. The original owner was a graduate of Shenghua High School a couple of years ago.
Thus, when everyone eventually saw the post, they would find it strange that the person who posted the thread was a supposedly 'deceased person'.
Huo Yu hadn't yet posted the second thread. Instead, he set up a timer on his computer. He wanted to post the second thread once the first one had reached certain popularity.
Very soon, the first post that Huo Yu had posted was seen by many students in Shenghua High School.
Although the previous posts had been deleted, the contents of those posts were fresh in everyone's memories.
However now, the surveillance video of the incident had been released. It proved that Jian Yiling wasn't the one who had pushed her brother down the stairs.
Everyone who had been spreading information about Jian Yiling pushing her brother down the stairs had been spreading lies.

Upon seeing the video, many of the students who had made comments before felt as though they had gotten slapped in the face. This time, they didn't dare to leave a comment.
However, there were a couple of students that left a comment. Previously, those students hadn't expressed their opinions.
[The truth is finally here. I want to know who started spreading such a thing. They had recounted the event so clearly. It seemed as though they were at the scene of the incident. However, now that I can see the truth in front of my eyes. It's terrifying to think about the power of a couple of words.]
[Where are all the students that cursed at Jian Yiling now? What happened to all those voices? Why don't you speak up now? Tell me about how malicious she is?]
[I also want to know who started spreading such a thing. They had recounted the situation so confidently as well.]
[Doesn't this prove that Jian Yiling is innocent? Someone was intentionally trying to put dirt onto her name.]
[Tsk, tsk. How black can one's heart be? To create such lies, that person must be incredibly evil.]

[What's going on these days? Yesterday, news came out that Jian Yiling came first in the chemistry competition. Today, it turns out that Jian Yiling hadn't pushed her brother down the stairs. That incident was merely a rumor.]
[Oh my god, it feels like my world is turning upside down.]
Previously, Jian Yiling had been cursed. Now, those who cursed her had nothing to say anymore. The silence was deafening.

The post that contained the truth was like a bomb that exploded on the campus forum of Shenghua High School. It made everyone feel confused and dazzled.
As soon as Hu Jiaojiao saw the post, she rushed over to speak to Jian Yiling.
"Yiling, look! Someone posted the actual surveillance video online! This is great! No one ever will slander you about that incident anymore!"
"Mhmm," Jian Yiling replied. She reacted calmly.
Jian Yiling's reaction made Hu Jiaojiao quite confused. She asked, "Why aren't you excited?"
Hu Jiaojiao couldn't help but exclaim inwardly, 'Wow, Yiling is so strong. Her emotions aren't swayed easily'.
"I've seen the video before," Jian Yiling replied. She wasn't surprised that the video had been uploaded onto the campus forum.
It was only a matter of time.
Even if someone else didn't upload the video, she would have uploaded it after Jian Yunnao's surgery.
"Huh? You've seen the video before?" Hu Jiaojiao asked. "Hmm... I guess that makes sense. You must have known the truth already. It's everyone else who didn't know the truth."

However, Hu Jiaojiao continued to mumble, "Wait, I have to go and leave a comment as well."
Upon saying that, Hu Jiaojiao opened the thread and started typing out a message.
[I think that everyone who cursed at Jian Yiling should give her an apology. You guys didn't even know what was going on. Your words were very hurtful. Just because you're not using your real name on the forum doesn't mean that you can just forget about the comments that you guys have made.]
After Hu Jiaojiao posted her comment, she immediately closed the campus forum.
Although she typed that comment, she was still scared that someone would tell her off.

She didn't have the guts to get into a fight with someone. Even if the fight was online. And even if the other party didn't even know her real name.

Final Year of Senior High, Qiu Yizhen's Classroom.
Soon afterward, Qiu Yizhen also saw the contents of the forum post. After seeing the post, her expression was a little rigid.
The truth was out?
Jian Yiling didn't push Jian Yunnao off the stairs?

Then didn't that mean that she had been messing around with Jian Yiling for no reason at all?
"Umm... Sister Qiu, it appears as though Jian Yiling didn't push Jian Yunnao? Then... Weren't we troubling the wrong person?"
One of Qiu Yizhen's lackeys asked cautiously.
"What?! Even if Jian Yiling didn't push her brother, the video showed that she was arguing with him at the top of the stairs! They were also pushing and pulling! If she didn't argue with Jian Yunnao, none of this would have ever happened! So Jian Yiling is still at fault! She's still responsible for Jian Yunnao's injuries."
Although Qiu Yizhen knew that she had made a mistake, she still didn't want to acknowledge it.
"Yes, yes. Of course. Sister Qiu is correct! It's Jian Yiling's fault!" The two lackeys echoed.
Although her lackeys agreed with her words, Qiu Yizhen still felt quite awkward.
If Jian Yiling cleared her name like that, wouldn't she end up being the joke?
What a pain.

Class for High Achievers, Final Year of Senior High. Mo Shiyun and Zhu Sha also saw the post.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
Yesterday, the Yao Li Chemistry and Advanced Materials Research Institution had declared that Jian Yiling hadn't cheated. This meant that she had officially come first in the chemistry competition.
Back then, everyone was saying how Jian Yiling's academics were undergoing redemption.
The only thing that they were still questioning was her character.
And now, it was revealed that she hadn't pushed Jian Yunnao down the stairs.
In fact, she had even tried to save Jian Yunnao.
It seemed as though her character wasn't an issue either.
Although there were a few people who still stuck to their guns and kept slandering Jian Yiling, most of the students were now defending her.
All of a sudden, Jian Yiling's name was no longer associated with malicious and evil.
In fact, there were some people who started to praise her. They said that it was calm and intelligent of her to not refute the previous claims.

The good and the bad were all being said by these people.
Zhu Sha couldn't help but say: "What's with these people? They're swayed so easily. A few days ago, they were still talking slack about Jian Yiling? And now, look at what they're doing!"
Zhu Sha never liked Jian Yiling. As a result, she enjoyed watching Jian Yiling being the target of ridicule.
However, now, everyone was clearing Jian Yiling's name. They even started to defend and praise her. Upon seeing this, Zhu Sha was incredibly dissatisfied.
However, Mo Shiyun wasn't paying attention to Zhu Sha's words. Instead, she stared at her phone.
Mo Shiyun was more shocked than the others when she saw the surveillance video.
This was because she had heard her mother tell her that she saw Jian Yiling push Jian Yunnao down the stairs.
She hadn't doubted her mother's words. Why would she?
1
However, right now, the surveillance video was right in front of her eyes.
How could this be?
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
Which one was telling the truth? Her mother? Or the surveillance video?
This was impossible. There was no way that her mother would lie about something like this. It wouldn't do her any good. Her mother definitely wouldn't do something like this.
"Shiyun? What's wrong?" Zhu Sha asked. She saw that Mo Shiyun wasn't speaking.
"Nothing," Mo Shiyun replied. Zhu Sha's voice brought Mo Shiyun back to her senses. She restrained herself from revealing her innermost thoughts to Zhu Sha.
She couldn't let Zhu Sha know about her doubts.
As soon as school ended, Mo Shiyun quickly packed her things and went home.
She needed to ask her mother about this incident.
Upon meeting her mother, Mo Shiyun finally expressed her thoughts.
When Aunt Mo saw the surveillance video on Mo Shiyun's phone, her eyes widened in shock and fear.
"What... How could this be?"
"Mother... What the hell is going on?"

Could it be... Could it be that her mother really lied?
"I..."
Aunt Mo remained stunned for a moment. After seeing her daughter's face, she gradually came back to her senses.
She couldn't let her daughter know these things. She had to make sure that her daughter stayed pure and innocent.
1
"How can this be? I don't understand this surveillance video. I saw with my own eyes that Miss Yiling pushed Young Master Yunnao down the stairs."
2
Aunt Mo stood by her previous statements.
However, it wasn't because she didn't want to change her statement. Rather, she couldn't change her previous statement.
Upon hearing this, Mo Shiyun asked, "Then... Then is this video fake? Did someone make a fake video?"
Mo Shiyun didn't know much about video forgery. However, she knew that photos could be photoshopped and videos could be edited. As a result, it was possible to do alterations to the video.
However, she didn't know the extent to which videos could be faked.
"I guess...." Aunt Mo said. She started to trail off as she had a guilty conscience.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
After a second thought, Aunt Mo said to Mo Shiyun, "Shiyun, please don't think about this matter anymore. Just let this video spread. It doesn't matter. The Jian family is very kind to us. Let's not expose them. Just pretend that you don't know about this matter. If someone else asks you about it, just say what you saw in the video."
1
"Okay, I understand," Mo Shiyun replied.
In all honesty, this matter had no effect on her.
Compared to the video, she was more concerned about the results of the chemistry competition.
After she finished talking to her daughter, Aunt Mo went to call He Yan. She told her about the incident that happened on the campus forum.
"Madam, what's happening? Didn't you say that you already got rid of the surveillance video?"
However, He Yan knew that the surveillance video had already gotten out.
Jian Yiling had only promised to not expose her. However, she hadn't agreed to not publicize the video.
1
"And? So what? Why are you so worried?"
Chapter 199: Figure Out a Solution By Yourself
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
"But, Madam! If the surveillance video is out, then the rest of them will know that I've lied!"
"Well, you haven't said anything in front of Jian Yuncheng nor the others. You've only told Jian Yunnao that Jian Yiling pushed him down the stairs."
When it came down to the wire, He Yan only cared about herself. It didn't matter to her whether or not Aunt Mo was sacrificed. Furthermore, there was nothing much that she could do about it anyway.
"But, if Young Master Yunnao hears about the truth, he will tell the others!"
"Well, it's up to him. He can choose to believe you or not. Furthermore, if he asks you, you can find an excuse. Go and figure out a solution by yourself. I didn't give you money for nothing. Also, can't you get your beautiful daughter to go and charm Yunnao? Didn't you say that he was heads over heels for her? If you can't figure out a way to save yourself, get your daughter to help you."
"No way. I'm definitely not going to get my daughter involved in this. I can do whatever you ask me to. However, I'm not going to drag my daughter into this!"
"Whatever. Do whatever you want to do. However, make sure to not get me involved. Otherwise, I'll ruin your daughter's future."
He Yan wasn't worried about Aunt Mo revealing the truth. She held Mo Shiyun's future as blackmail. Even if someone broke Aunt Mo's teeth, she would swallow the blood and refrain from telling the truth.
"Madam, could you please at least delete the video on the campus forum?" Aunt Mo pleaded.
She didn't know much about forums.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
However, the thing that Aunt Mo knew was, the longer the video was on the campus forum, the more likely she would be exposed.
He Yan hesitated for a moment.
Typically, He Yan was very cautious about doing anything online. She knew that anything that she did could be tracked down by hackers.
Furthermore, He Yan knew that Jian Yuncheng had a friend that was a computer genius.
As a result, when she had initially spread the rumor, she had specifically asked someone to hack the account of a deceased graduate of Shenghua High School. This was done so that even if she was tracked down, she wouldn't be exposed.
"Hmm... I will see."
He Yan responded half-heartedly.
She really didn't want to deal with this matter. She didn't dare to ask anyone to remove the video for her.
After He Yan hung up the phone call with Aunt Mo, she decided to not do anything related to Jian Yiling for the time being. For now, she decided to focus her attention on something else.
She had just heard the news that Qin Shixuan had come to Hengyuan City.
Qin Shixuan's identity was the head of Yao Li Chemistry and Advanced Materials Research Institution.

However, he was also related to the Qin family in the capital.
Although his social standing wasn't as prominent as Zhai Yunsheng, he was still a member of the Qin family. Due to this reason, it was definitely beneficial to be on good terms with him.
He Yan had already given up on befriending Zhai Yunsheng.
So instead, she went ahead and prepared a gift to give Qin Shixuan. However, she still needed to convince her husband to visit him with her.
As her husband wasn't associated with the Qin family, in theory, there was no need for her to go visit them.
However, He Yan was still frantically thinking of ways to get in touch with the Qin family. She didn't want this opportunity to slip away.
She heard that Qin Shixuan's wife had also come to Hengyuan City. Apparently, there was a plan to host a charity dinner on the weekends.
He Yan felt that this would be a good opportunity to become associated with the Qin family. However, she didn't know how to get an invitation to the charity dinner.

After meeting Jian Yiling, Qin Shixuan had asked his assistant to investigate some information for him.
However, the information that he received was nothing special.
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
Jian Yiling was the youngest daughter of the Jian family. She had been pampered and spoiled since childhood.
She had good grades when she was young. However, there was a period of time where her academic results had plummeted. And now, she had suddenly achieved a good result in the chemistry competition.

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
"Mr. Qin, aren't you here to find Chief Qin's first love and her child? Jian Yiling doesn't look like Chief Qin's child," the assistant said in a low voice.
Qin Shixuan was a close descendant of the Qin family in the capital. He was cousins with the current head of the Qin family.
Although he wasn't a direct descendant of the Qin family, his identity was still well respected by the people in Hengyuan City.
Even though Qin Shixuan had come to Hengyuan City to hold a chemistry competition, that wasn't his primary goal. His main goal was to find his cousin's first love and illegitimate son.
However, this wasn't a glorious matter. As a result, he had been secretly trying to find the mother and the son.

Qin Shixuan spoke again, "Yeah, that's true. However, Jian Yiling is quite talented. Furthermore, we don't have any news of those two yet. If we are planning to stay in Hengyuan City for a while, it would be good to find some talented individuals to join our organization."
"Oh, Mr.Qin you're correct."
"Has the person that Chief Qin sent to that address returned yet?"
"Yes, they've returned. However, there is someone else living there already. No one remembers the name of the woman who was living there. There was only an old lady who said that she vaguely remembers a woman that appeared to be pregnant. I think that it was true that she was pregnant."
Qin Shixuan nodded his head before he continued to speak, "Ah right. Also, I heard that the Young Master of the Zhai family is also staying in Hengyuan City?"
How to Restore Vision Without SurgeryiFocus
"Yeah. Hengyuan City has been quite busy lately. Both the Qin and Zhai family have people here."
"Oh, furthermore, I heard that Master Sheng came to Hengyuan City to look for something."
"To look for something?"
"Apparently, it's related to his father's death."
"Oh, let's not interfere with that. Outsiders should not interfere with such a matter."
Upon hearing what his assistant told him, Qin Shixuan instructed his men to not get involved with the matter.
Everyone knew how serious this matter was to the Zhai family.

When school was over, Jian Yiling arrived at the school gates. However, she did not see Grandma Jian.
Instead, she saw a bright yellow sports car. The color and the model of the car had attracted the attention of many of the students at Shenghua High School.
Even the attention of the teachers had been drawn to the car.

Jian Yiling immediately recognized the driver.
He was seated in the driver's seat and wearing sunglasses.
When Jian Yiling walked to the side of the car, Zhai Yunsheng spoke up, "Get in."
Jian Yiling stared at him. Her eyes were filled with confusion.
"Your grandma is fine. Yu Xi owes you a meal," Zhai Yunsheng explained. It seemed as though Zhai Yunsheng knew that Jian Yiling had doubts.
The reason why Grandma Jian hadn't picked Jian Yiling up today was that Yu Xi owed Jian Yiling a 'sumptuous banquet'. Back when Jian Yiling was sick, he had agreed to this.
Like a good neighborhood brother, he would keep to his promise.
However, whenever Yu Xi asked about her schedule, Jian Yiling had told him that she was busy. She couldn't even make time on the weekends.
As a result, Yu Xi could only arrange the meal on a weekday evening.
After Yu Xi explained the situation to Grandma Jian, Grandma Jian had readily agreed.
This was due to Yu Xi's good display in front of Grandma Jian and the other elders.

However, for some reason, the task of picking Jian Yiling up had been given to Zhai Yunsheng.
After hearing the reason, Jian Yiling got into Zhai Yunsheng's car.
As soon as Jian Yiling got in, Zhai Yunsheng stepped on the accelerator and made a U-turn.
After a burst of engine noises, the car left the school.
All that was left for the students and teachers was their endless imagination.
Who was this man? Was he Jian Yiling's brother?
How was he so handsome?
All the girls were incredibly envious.
