Chapter 946 An Yiqing’s Counterattack (2)
Pei Wen’s face turned crimson red, as An Yiqing’s words, subtle yet laden with implications, suggested that he was solely motivated by fame and personal gain, caring more about his reputation than conducting any profound research in the academic field.
Everyone was not a fool. Although An Yiqing spoke subtly, everyone understood clearly. Both the journalists in attendance and the viewers in front of their TV sets couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Gritting his teeth, Pei Wen glared at the journalists who were holding back their laughter, and in a fury, he loudly questioned An Yiqing, "Fine! Since you say that this flower is indeed the Heaven Mountain Snow Lotus, where is the evidence? I consider myself well-read, but I have never come across such a plant in any ancient book. Miss An, aren’t you trying to fabricate an old book to deceive us?"
Pei Wen’s words were somewhat excessive, making everyone feel a bit uncomfortable. Regardless of whether it was his or An Yiqing’s credentials, merely considering his age, Pei Wen was as old as An Yiqing’s father. It was somewhat disgraceful for an elder to use such sharp and harsh words to mock a young girl who could be his daughter, in front of so many people.
"Damn, I used to think Pei Wen was quite nice, but why is he speaking so harshly today?" a netizen named "Full Belly Sleep" commented.
"No matter what, An Yiqing is still the junior, how can he speak so aggressively? From passerby to hater!"
