Chapter 1664: The Truth Revealed
The actions of the five people named by the anonymous email were all true. None of them were slanderous. s.h.i.+ Maowen told the president that the five people from the s.h.i.+ family had severely affected the s.h.i.+ family’s reputation and had been expelled from the s.h.i.+ family. He also advised the president to
punish them severely.
In addition, after reviewing the actions of these five people, the s.h.i.+ family also conducted a thorough investigation of the other members of the family, making them reflect on their own actions thoroughly.
In the process of investigation, they discovered an injustice committed half a year ago.
At that time, Nangong Ze had just been transferred from the Medical Administrative Department to the Medic a.s.sociation Hospital to be in charge of the development of a special antihypertensive drug alongside s.h.i.+ Zhonglei.
In the end, in order to please s.h.i.+ Zhonglei, the drug researchers in their group increased the dosage of the drugs in an attempt to get the drug developed faster.
It was Nangong Ze who discovered that the measurements for the drug were wrong and informed the project team’s leader of the matter. Unexpectedly, the leader was a relative of the same researcher.
Later on, after Nangong Ze finished researching the drug, the person in charge of the project team blatantly stole the results of Nangong Ze’s medicine in order to get revenge on Nangong Ze and also to suck up to the s.h.i.+ family. He claimed that s.h.i.+ Zhonglei was the one who developed the drug, and that
the bad drug his relative had previously produced through overdosing was actually Nangong Ze’s.
This had directly led to Nangong Ze’s failed promotion. His future potential was severely impeded by this event.
This time, after they investigated thoroughly, they discovered other things about this person. Hence, they followed the clues and found out the truth about what happened previously. s.h.i.+ Maowen righteously asked the president to clear Nangong Ze’s name.
Since this involved the Nangong family, the president naturally placed great importance on it and immediately got his secretary to follow up on it.
Nangong Ze had initially been very angry at the damage caused by the previous incident. Not only was there no hope of promotion, but he was also constantly criticized behind his back.
At long last, someone from the justice department suddenly came by with the president’s secretary. While everyone thought that Young Master Nangong had committed another crime, the comrades from the justice department made a public inquiry on the research of the antihypertensive drug from half
ayear ago.
Nangong Ze wanted to talk about how s.h.i.+ Zhonglei had shamelessly stolen his achievements at first, but when he heard that the people from the justice department had intentionally or unintentionally targeted the person in charge of the project, Nangong Ze pieced together what was happening.
Initially, there had been no room for negotiation even if the Nangong family investigated and threatened him. There had been no chance for him to clear his name. Now that the opportunity had come, even if s.h.i.+ Zhonglei was still given preferential treatment by the project team’s person-in-charge, he
would at least be able to clear his name.
Thus, Nangong Ze explained the situation to the justice department. The next day, all the major newspapers and magazines exposed this incident.
It turned out that the antihypertensive drug had been developed by Nangong Ze, and the previous drug measurements had also been discovered by him. In the end, both were claimed by someone with ulterior motives.
Nangong Ze’s reputation was instantly cleared, and the person in charge of the project team and the person who had stolen the drug measurements were arrested. Although s.h.i.+ Zhonglei was the beneficiary of the whole incident, he had not partic.i.p.ated directly. Since this matter had been exposed by the
s.h.i.+ family themselves, s.h.i.+ Zhonglei got the benefit of the doubt.
The onlookers believed that the s.h.i.+ family had not known about this, and even if s.h.i.+ Zhonglei knew, he probably thought that the antihypertensive drug had been developed by the team and they wanted to give him the credit.
After all, if it was really s.h.i.+ Zhonglei who had done it and the s.h.i.+ family knew, then the s.h.i.+ family would definitely not be so foolish as to expose this matter…
