Tong Yue stepped back slightly before she regained her balance.
Everyone pulled out their phones to understand what was happening. As it was a trending topic, it wasn't hard to see, and most of them started giving Tong Yang suspicious gazes.
Tong Yang could also not bother about her 'cultured student' facade and pulled out her phone.
Her eyes darkened as she saw the first screenshot.
Even if others didn't know, she understood what it meant if Rong Yue's name was the first on the list!
Wasn't her uncle swapping the both of them results? If Rong Yue had full marks, then that meant it was unsuccessful.
But she had seen the results with her own eyes the previous day, she didn't want to believe that things could change just like that!
Her mind was in chaos as she quickly followed the various tags on her phone.
She had been tagged to a particular post by many people.
[Miss Tong, you must have been too lazy to search for your name, this is your result here!]
Tong Yang - 510
Tong Yang staggered as she saw that result.
What was happening? She had clearly seen that she had full marks on her dashboard the day before.
"Something is wrong! There must be a glitch!"
She was already losing her composure and couldn't help but shout.
The people around her weren't as tolerant. The reporter that her mother had spent so much to hire was also the same.
"Miss Tong, did you create a doctored image of your dashboard to fool us?"
"No! No! That's my result! She took my results."
Madam Tong also rushed towards her quickly as she heard the whispers around.
"Tong Yang is just eighteen. How can you give her a sole interview?" She shouted as she pushed through the crowd to get to Tong Yang.
Upon seeing her mother, Tong Yang felt like she had seen her salvation and ran to her side.
"Mother, someone must be playing tricks! I clearly had full marks the other day," as she wailed, she passed the phone to her mother, who saw the grading.
She also regretted not following her instincts and staying away from Tong Yang from the beginning!
Upon hearing people asking them to log in, Madam Tong agreed quickly.
Tong Yang pulled out her phone and the crowd surrounded the two of them. Tong Haun stepped back but didn't leave the circle also.
Some of Tong Yang's classmates had pulled out their phones to record.
Most of them were only there for the fun of it. They would hurriedly post it and attract traffic if she could prove that she had that score.
But If she could not provide evidence, they would still do the same thing!
Tong Yang logged into her dashboard in front of everyone, the website didn't have as much traffic as yesterday, and she got in immediately.
The score sections were written in large fonts and were bold. As long as one logged into the profile and clicked on results, they would see it immediately.
Aggregate score - 510
Tong Yang's eyes widened with disbelief, and she felt like she was holding a hot potato.
"M...mother.."
Her mother was also stunned at the new score.
Where did things go wrong?
She had seen 750 yesterday. Why was she seeing 510 now??
Just as she was thinking about it, she remembered the first screenshot she had seen.
Wasn't the first name there Rong Yue?
In front of everyone, there was no way she could reveal her thoughts. Instead, she used her eyes to signal to Tong Haun.
Tong Haun slipped out from the crowd to get their manor's security.
Since they couldn't prove that Tong Yang hadn't lied, the first thing they could do was chase people away.
Just like that, the party that had started with great fanfare was reduced to people being chased out.
Madam Tong pulled Tong Yang into one of the rooms.
"How did the matter become like this?"
