Julian's words landed, and the noisy atmosphere suddenly froze. Those who were waiting to see Selena's joke suddenly had their smiles freeze on their faces. The hearts of the teachers and members of the experimental group at Capital University's laboratory, which had just dropped, suddenly rose again.
Penelope's expression also froze. A group of people's eyes subconsciously focused on the young man in white, all with a puzzled expression.
Julian? The Dean of the Medical Alliance Academy?
Julian smiled, and his whole body exuded a gentle and transparent temperament. The compassionate aura between his eyes was like a breath of fresh air.
He was indeed a young man with both appearance and temperament...
But...
Penelope was first alarmed, staring at Julian for a moment before bursting into laughter. She held Cameron's arm, laughing so hard that she was shaking, "Lady Selena, even if you don't want to fulfill the bet, you can't use such childish tricks to deceive us!"
In the end, Penelope's smile faded, and she stared at Selena with a look of disdain and anger. "As we all know, the Dean of the Medical Alliance Academy is highly skilled and has a mysterious identity. He became famous internationally ten years ago. How old were the people around you ten years ago?"
After Penelope's reminder, the group of people who were shocked began to come to their senses. Then, they looked at Selena and Julian with disgust in their eyes.
Winnie said with disgust on her face, "Selena, if you want to avoid punishment, can't you find a more credible method? Pulling out a person at random and saying he's the Dean of the Medical Alliance Academy, are you treating us all like fools?"
"That's right, Selena, as Mr. Turner's daughter, can't you have some backbone? Losing and then using such a shameful trick to avoid responsibility, you are simply insulting your father's reputation!"
"I didn't expect that Mr. Turner's daughter would turn out to be this kind of person. It's simply an insult to the surname Bao!"
For a while, the sound of accusations and ridicule against Selena echoed everywhere.
No one noticed that Lin, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly shook when he heard Julian's voice. He opened his eyes suddenly and was shocked when he saw the man standing beside Selena.
Selena's gaze turned cold, with a hint of impatience between her eyebrows. Even Julian, who was usually gentle, showed a trace of chill in his eyes.
After Penelope finished her mockery, she looked at Selena with disdain and turned to her mentor, saying, "Teacher, call the security room immediately and ask them to come and remove these-"
She sneered and pointed her slender finger one by one at Julian, Hei Ya, Joanna, Leia, and finally landed on Selena's face, "These swindlers who cheat and steal the world, get them out of here!"
Her mentor immediately took out his phone, with a cold smile on his face, and called the security room in public.
At this moment, a sudden and uncontrollable roar echoed throughout the venue.
"Shut up, all of you!"
This shout was so sudden and frightening that it startled everyone present. People looked toward the direction of the voice, even Mr. Mae Lane, who seemed to have been pricked by a needle, jumped out of his chair and crawled to Julian almost uncontrollably. With a face full of cold sweat, he respectfully said, "Dean... Dean!"
The whole scene suddenly fell into silence. Penelope's smile froze completely on her face, and she almost screamed unconsciously, "Mr. Mae Lane, what are you doing? How can you call a cheater Dean-"
"Shut up!" Mr. Mae Lane turned his head and glared at her furiously, "You ignorant fool, how dare you be so rude to our Dean!"
Penelope stared at Julian firmly, and her whole body visibly stiffened from head to toe, even her lips lost all color in an instant.
Not only her, including Principal Chow and Hamish, everyone present was stunned. It took a long time for intermittent voices to be heard.
