Di Xiaxia's test results were conclusive, and Belinda and her coach repeatedly confirmed them.
While it turned out she was pregnant, there truly were no written rules against it so no results could be changed.
Thus, it was simply an interlude.
Upon hearing Belinda's apology, Di Xiaxia generously responded, "I accept your sincere apology. As an athlete, I accept any skepticism, and now the facts have proven that I can withstand scrutiny. My country, too, adheres to the principles of openness and fairness and welcomes every athlete's participation in the competition."
Ultimately, Belinda took a deep bow, and that episode was put behind them.
Then came the formal award ceremony. Because of this interlude, the crowd was even more excited, feeling something special.
