Chapter 82 A Well-Planned Public Opinion War
The announcements from the school and the arrival of the police have thrown the campus into chaos.
News of this appalling incident spread quickly.
The online discussion escalated rapidly. Many netizens commented.
This is absolutely outrageous, absolutely outrageous!
Oh my god, what will happen to those children?
How can someone with such a cruel heart become a teacher?
What a terrible school! What are the school leaders even doing?
I heard this school is controlled by the Xia Group.
The Xia Group has a good reputation for doing charity work every year.
You can know a person's face but not their heart. If such heinous things happen right under their noses, who knows how much corruption and filth must be lurking elsewhere?
[Exactly, I support investigating the Xia family's background; it doesn't seem very clean.]
[Don't generalize. The Xia family has always been doing good deeds; it's someone abusing their power for personal gain.]
[Have you ever received favors from the Xia family? This is speaking up for the Xia family.]
[Most of the people above are employees of the Xia family; of course, the Xia family's lackeys will stand up for the Xia family.]
Driven by malicious individuals, a war of words erupted online in an instant.
The incident quickly escalated from a serious incident on campus to the conclusion that Xia was a corrupt official.
Another group of people started making a fuss, saying all sorts of bad things about the Xia family.
When you say too much, some people start to take it seriously.
Many people went to Xia's official account to denounce him.
Some people even reported it directly without hesitation.
The incident quickly went viral, trending on social media one after another.
It climbed three trending topics in a row, and there's a clear trend of it continuing.
Xia Chengping received a phone call immediately and learned about the news online.
They found Zhou Ran, who looked troubled.
"Brother Zhou, what should we do? There are so many idiots online cursing our family. I feel like climbing over the internet and beating them all to death."
Even if Xia Chengping was stupid, he knew that he couldn't let this happen now.
Once he starts watching the big thing happen, things start to get out of control.
Zhou Ran crossed her legs and swung them back and forth.
Seeing that Xia Chengping was indeed anxious, he slowly spoke.
"What's there to be afraid of? Even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. You have many tall people in your family, so don't worry, this is nothing."
Thinking of his brother's abilities, Xia Chengping's agitated heart calmed down a little.
“Brother Zhou, the school has issued a statement, why don’t these people read anything and just spread rumors? What they’re saying isn’t true, yet they’re just following the crowd everywhere.”
Do you know a saying?
"What did you say?"
The person who wronged you knows better than you how wronged you are.
They use all sorts of dirty tricks to trap you in a self-justification scheme, tormenting your mind and exhausting your energy.
It makes you break down through repeated denials and self-justifications.
In the end, all they could do was endure the disgust and have dirty water splashed all over them.
"Like what those people did today?"
Xia Chengping subconsciously thought about what had happened today.
Some dubious photos, coupled with some hype.
Rumors spread throughout the school, and they began targeting Zhou Ran without any evidence.
"So we should just let them slander us?"
"No, if you're not strong enough, you'll end up like me, the nail that sticks out gets hammered down."
Those who dare to provoke us will be dragged into this mess, and their grievances will be slapped hard across the face.
As long as your heart is stronger than theirs, you are more unreasonable than them.
They are more likely to break through the bottom line, and usually, these cowardly troublemakers who stick their necks out have no choice but to admit defeat.
There's also the possibility that later on, after a plot twist, they'll become the one who stands up for you.
If you are strong enough, you will find the troublemakers.
In front of everyone, throw out all the evidence you've collected and smash it in the face of the person spreading the rumors.
Of course, we shouldn't let those who spread rumors get away with it. We should make an example of them, catch a few ringleaders, and give them a good beating.
Zhou Ran took the opportunity to teach the silly boy, saying that this kid in the Xia family was the only one who lacked intelligence.
This inevitably causes people a bit more worry.
Xia Cheng'an, standing not far away, overheard everything Zhou Ran said.
He smiled slightly, worried that Xia Chengping might act impulsively and say something online.
It seems like all that worrying was for nothing.
"Hey, come on over here, don't hide in that corner pretending to be a mushroom."
Zhou Ran noticed Xia Cheng'an standing to one side and beckoned him over.
"My brother has already started, so I came to check on you."
Zhou Ran pouted.
"That jerk of yours deliberately tricked me. I'll settle the score with him after school!"
Zhou Ran gritted her teeth at the thought of Xia Chenggan's smile that morning.
That bastard definitely discovered something was up; he might have been watching those people secretly plotting against him and making things difficult for him.
He's incredibly unlucky to have a marriage partner like that.
"Don't take it out on me. I tried to stop him, but my brother wouldn't let me. He said he had a surprise for you."
Xia Cheng'an quickly distanced himself from the situation.
This is a little romantic gesture between the young couple.
He doesn't want to be the kind of fish that gets caught in the crossfire.
"Huh? You all knew? Then why didn't you tell me?"
Xia Chengping realized that the other person already knew about this but hadn't told him beforehand, causing him to worry.
Xia Cheng'an glanced at him.
"Your acting is bad!"
"That's too much! You just know how to bully me! I'll beat you to death!"
Xia Chengping was furious; they all ostracized him.
He raised his fist and chased after Xia Cheng'an, intending to punch him.
Xia Chengan dodged quickly, running around Zhou Ran to avoid Xia Chengping's fists landing on him.
His silly older brother hits really hard.
Zhou Ran remained calm and composed, letting the two of them run around him and cause a ruckus.
Long-forgotten memories surfaced in my mind.
He once had such brothers.
They weren't blood brothers, but they talked about everything.
They would share food, cause trouble, and do bad things together.
Those were truly such youthful days.
Unfortunately, people always grow up, and things always become more complicated.
The bald man, far away overseas, sneezed violently.
"Over there!"
"wipe!"
The bald man cursed and rushed out of his hiding place, running towards the cover behind him.
"That bastard must have offended someone again, otherwise why would I suddenly be being chased by so many people when I was perfectly fine!"
While complaining, the bald man also took the opportunity to shoot anyone who popped up.
He was running out of bullets.
If you can't win a direct confrontation, you definitely need to find a way to escape as quickly as possible.
The bald man quickly assessed his surroundings, pried open the door lock, and sneaked into a car.
Send out the car and rush out amidst the gunfire.
Immediately afterwards, several cars rushed out and began chasing the station.
Interspersed among the sounds were bursts of gunfire.
The bald man cursed as he charged forward.
Finally, we broke into the crowded city center.
He randomly picked a shopping mall and went into a multi-level underground parking garage.
Hearing the whistling of cars behind him, he seized the opportunity and jumped out of the car.
My shoulder hit the ground with a cracking sound, followed by a sharp pain.
Ignoring his injuries, the bald man struggled to his feet and quickly rolled into the shadows.
He only got up when the pursuers chased the car down.
They rushed quickly to the elevator inside the shopping mall.
The elevator was slow to come down, and the bald man heard the roar of a car crash.
Knowing that time was of the essence, they waited until they discovered that no one was in the car.
He can't escape now.
He covered his shoulder, glanced around, and finally chose an SUV.
He pried open the car door, quickly climbed in, and squeezed his muscular body into the gap between the back seat and the ground.
That's why he and Zhou Ran are good friends.
The methods they chose to escape were all exactly the same.
The bald man lowered his breathing, endured the pain, and hid in the cramped space, waiting.
He was cursing under his breath, and the person he was cursing was none other than Zhou Ran.
Running into him is never a good thing.
The worst thing that happened to him in his past life was meeting Zhou Ran.
The luckiest thing was meeting Zhou Ran.
What a contradiction!
The bald man felt he was just a jerk.
Even so, he cursed Zhou Ran mercilessly in his heart.
I still don't regret seeing him again.
Little did he know, he would discover that the person he was chasing was Zhou Ran.
His hand holding the gun was shaking.
If it weren't for the many people watching, he would have slapped himself.
Does it hurt? Am I dreaming?
After confirming it was that person, he was more surprised than angry.
Later, after calming down, I couldn't help but wonder how he came into this world.
He died and came here. Could it be that Zhou Ran also died and came here?
Thinking about it again, it seemed impossible. That old guy, he wouldn't die no matter who died.
He was planning to find an opportunity to talk to someone.
Who knew that the old rascal would run away after only two days?
He had no chance to bring the person back and have a chat.
He's being hunted down now, and I don't know if we'll ever have a chance to talk again.
They had so much to say and so many misunderstandings to clear up.
He didn't want to end his life with another misunderstanding.
The sound of hurried footsteps outside interrupted the bald man's thoughts.
It's insane that I would let my mind wander at a time like this.
Shaking off the jumbled thoughts in his mind, the bald man gripped the gun tightly.
He was prepared for one last desperate attempt.
The hurried footsteps outside grew closer, searching the surrounding cars.
The bald man lowered his breathing, tensed his nerves, and prepared to strike at any moment.
The footsteps grew closer and circled the car.
Let's hear what's going on outside.
"Be careful, this guy is slippery, don't let him get away."
"Know."
The bald man nervously held his breath.
The sound of footsteps circled around twice, and someone was peering through the window.
Thankfully, the car windows had tinted windows, so I looked around but didn't find anything.
The bald man's heart was in his throat.
Finally, the footsteps around me faded a bit as they went to check the car next to me.
The bald man licked his lips, and the sweat on his forehead slowly began to trickle down.
Just as the bald man breathed a sigh of relief.
The car door he had just pried open was suddenly flung open.
The bald man and the person who opened the door stared into each other's eyes!
Back in China, Zhou Ran and her group can't leave.
I am unaware of how things are developing outside.
The Xia family's public relations department had already taken notice of the news as soon as it started circulating online.
Among those accounts, some were quickly identified as opportunistic.
They remained still while frantically taking screenshots.
Secretly plotting.
Once the order comes from above, they will definitely eliminate these keyboard warriors immediately.
After securing the kill, then take those screenshots as evidence.
Let their legal department handle it and give them a second kill.
Hold another press conference, issue a public apology, and complete the triple kill.
Let these people know that the internet is not a lawless zone.
The Xia family doesn't support idlers! Oh, I should say they don't support idle dogs! Author's note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support, muah! To learn more about this book, please leave a message on Liancheng Reading.
