"Family Head Ji has always been friendly towards people, but today he's out of character, so angry, he must have been provoked by Gongsun Cheng."
"Indeed, who would have thought the noble Gongsun Family would resort to such despicable tricks."
Ji Tao's fury shifted the "public opinion" back onto his side, painting Gongsun Cheng as a fraud. The crowd, unaware of the situation, naturally believed Ji Tao. It must be said, the Ji Family enjoys a solid reputation in Huaxia, partly because Ji Tao consistently presents a kind and upright image, and also due to the Ji Family extending help to many families. Once public opinion marks someone as a "publicly acknowledged good person," anyone suddenly speaking ill of them is bound to face backlash—Gongsun Cheng now fills this role.
