Chapter 128 The Trap of Self-Proof
“No need,” Xie Yanning said. “Don’t fall into the trap of self-proof. How can you prove that you don’t have that sister? What if she’s an illegitimate child? Even if you prove that you’re unmarried, what if I’m actually dating that sister? They can always find a logical loophole to attack you. The harder you try to prove it, the more excited they become, and the more they enjoy it, and you’ll be dragged into the mire.”
"There's no need to get entangled with them; we can just suppress the matter."
Suppressing such worthless sex scandals is simply a matter of money.
Nobody turns down money.
"But I'm still so unconvinced!" Su Wanwan agreed with Xie Yanning, but she still felt aggrieved.
Why should we always be the ones to react passively when we're the ones being slandered?
Xie Yanning pecked Su Wanwan's lips a few times. "Don't be angry. It's bad for your health. It will break my heart."
"But I feel sorry for you too. Why should someone like you be scolded like this when you're so good?"
Xie Yanning smiled gently, "If you feel sorry for me, why don't you kiss me?"
"I'm being serious with you, why are you still like this!"
"This is a very serious matter. Why should our time alone be ruined by irrelevant people?"
She understood the logic, but asked, "But are you really not angry at all?"
“I’m not a saint, of course I get angry,” Xie Yanning gently brushed her still slightly damp hair aside. “But getting angry won’t help; we need to solve the problem first.”
Su Wanwan was almost convinced by Xie Yanning.
She nestled into his arms again, saying, "You have such a good temper; I don't think I've ever seen you angry."
“Yes,” Xie Yanning said, “you were quite angry when you started a fire but didn’t put it out.”
Su Wanwan punched him and cursed, "You scoundrel."
"Let me carry you back to your room to rest. You haven't slept for so long." He touched her face; she was so tired that there were dark circles under her eyes.
Xie Yanning watched, her heart filled with other emotions.
Rather than saying he wasn't angry, it would be more accurate to say that Xie Yanning rarely showed his anger.
Su Wanwan should have gotten a good night's sleep as soon as she got off work, instead of getting angry over this mess.
After Xie Yanning reasoned with her and calmed her down, Su Wanwan felt sleepy, yawned, and wrapped her arms around his neck: "Let's get going."
Xie Yanning carried the person steadily into the room.
He held her close, gently patted her shoulder, and coaxed her to sleep.
After Su Wanwan fell asleep, Xie Yanning got up.
The lawsuit was filed by his lawyer friend.
They acted quickly and have already filed a lawsuit against the relevant platforms.
The rest is about obtaining user information and initiating legal proceedings.
Lin Hui was initially quite pleased with herself, and she felt incredibly happy to see so many people criticizing them.
You were so arrogant and rejected me, now you know you were wrong, right?
But her joy was short-lived; the video was quickly deleted from the entire internet, and when she tried to upload it again, she was told that the video was not compliant and could not be uploaded.
She couldn't help but yell, "So what if you're rich?!"
At this point, the counselor asked her to go to the office.
Lin Hui frowned. Why would the counselor come to her without a reason?
She asked on WeChat, "Teacher, what's up?"
The counselor's tone was curt: "Come here now."
Lin Hui didn't dare to delay, so she packed up and went to find someone.
In the office, the counselor's eyes could trap a mosquito.
"Please sit down."
Lin Hui sat down somewhat nervously and quickly thought about whether she had done anything to offend her counselor recently.
She's about to graduate, so it's best not to offend her advisor.
"I'm asking you, did you write the anonymous letter reporting Associate Professor Xie Yanning? And did you also post that exaggerated video online?"
There are no secrets in universities.
Their school principal is from that school, so getting information shouldn't be difficult.
Lin Hui was startled and, trying to stay calm, said, "Teacher, what are you talking about? I don't quite understand. Who is Professor Xie?"
"You're still pretending?!" The counselor's eyes were practically slashing at her. Why did she have to cause trouble at this crucial moment!
Why can't we wait until graduation to do something big!
Why can't we just let her have some peace and quiet!
The counselor is extremely irritable now.
Lin Hui was startled.
"Don't cause me any more trouble, unless you want to fail to graduate." The counselor calmed down: "Find an opportunity to visit Professor Xie and apologize to him properly."
As Lin Hui left the counselor's office, she felt very resentful.
How dare she sue her!
She was used to being the center of attention since childhood and couldn't understand why there could be such a person in the world.
Hmph, so what if she's allowed to go?
At worst, she could tell her counselor that the wind on the rooftop was cool and she wanted to go there to cool off.
At that moment, the counselor had no idea that his student could harbor such wicked intentions as to threaten people.
She was frantically trying to find a way to sneak into the school to find someone.
I'm so irritable!
She's just a junior counselor, why can't she be a little less troublesome?
Lin Hui didn't take it seriously at all.
Let her sue. She's a student, and the other party is a teacher. No matter how you look at it, the other party is at a disadvantage.
He dared to sue her, and the very next day she dared to climb up to their school's administration building, to see who was afraid of whom.
After receiving the news that the other party was a senior college student, Xie Yanning told her lawyer friend to postpone the matter, collect evidence, and wait until she graduated.
After hearing this, the lawyer friend took a deep drag on his cigarette and finally said, "You're ruthless."
If you sue after graduation, you lose your student status and naturally lose the moral judgment.
Xie Yanning neither agreed nor disagreed with this statement.
These kinds of things are inherently slow processes, so there's no rush within the next six months.
Su Wanwan is right, a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years.
The impact wasn't too significant; at most, her colleagues at the hospital made a couple of jokes, and Su Wanwan was so busy that she almost forgot about it.
However, just because she forgot about it doesn't mean it's over.
In a cramped rented room in a suburban area of southwest China, a bearded man stared at a video of two people kissing on his phone, his eyes flashing with a terrifying glint, his lips trembling.
He wanted to throw away his phone, but he couldn't bear to.
He could only vent his anger by kicking the chair hard.
The poor, already fragile plastic stool has finally reached the end of its life.
That wasn't all; he then slammed the table down, making a loud noise.
This area is a mixed-use residential area.
At noon, when everyone was thinking about taking a break, they heard the noise and started cursing, "What the hell is making all that noise about!"
The man, panting heavily, looked back at the two people kissing on his phone.
"I clearly told you that I'm the best for you, why didn't you listen!"
Why don't you listen to me!
Why are you with this man?!
"Why!"
"You should be mine, why are you with this man?" He touched Su Wanwan's face in the video. "You're so good, you should be mine. Don't worry, I'll take you away."
