"Even if you feel like that. Surely, Mu Qiqi would be outraged!"
"The public is furious too. They asked the Ministry of Education to give Mu Tangxue severe punishment. Now, we're waiting for Mama Mu's testimony!"
"Mu Tangxue appeared and claimed that she was innocent. That means that she would be fine now."
Fine?
Mu Tangxue thought that she had done the right thing by attending the press conference. She could claim that she was innocent. But, she didn't know that her reckless action would annoy the police and the Ministry of Education. She showed no regret for what she did. She thought that all the others were naive and foolish people. She was playing with the law and treating the education system like it was nothing.
The Ministry of Education had already decided on the kind of punishment for Mu Tangxue after receiving Mama Mu's final testimony. But, they needed to reconsider it after that press conference.
