After Mr. Zhong called the deputy director, he and Mrs. Zhong waited anxiously for news at home.
In such a short period of time, Zhong's father had no idea what his son was thinking about and what he meant by slandering others, so he could only let his subordinates investigate.
"I don't know if Yujie has been wronged there. I think we should rush over now. What if Yujie is bullied by them or forced to confess?"
Mother Zhong was walking back and forth in the living room, her face full of worry.
Father Zhong held a cigarette in his hand and said impatiently, "What do you think the police station is? A den of hooligans? They tortured him into confessing. Now we live in a society ruled by law. The police must have evidence when arresting people. Your precious son will at most be taken into the house for questioning. He will be fine."
"You weren't the one who was taken away, so of course you're not worried." Zhong's mother looked dissatisfied. "Did you just call the deputy director to explain everything? Why hasn't he replied yet? Hurry up and hurry up."
"Why are you urging him? He's the deputy director. Do you think he's the employees under the company?" Zhong's father put out the cigarette in his hand and said, "Wait a little longer."
As a result, the next moment, the deputy director called them back.
Mr. Zhong immediately pressed the answer button with joy, thinking that the matter was settled.
"Brother Zhong, it's not that I won't help you. The person your son has provoked this time is not simple. The other party actually invited Cao Jingnian."
"What, Cao Jingnian?" Mr. Zhong's face suddenly changed when he heard it.
In Kyoto, anyone who does business knows Cao Jingnian!
Last year, it was because of Cao Jingnian that a business tycoon worth tens of billions was sent to prison.
However, Cao Jingnian suffered no losses at all.
Because not only do they have strong business capabilities, they also have a strong background.
"I just asked my men. Your son's crime this time is serious, but not serious either. As long as the other party agrees to reconcile, then this matter will be simple."
"Director Zhang, what is going on here? Could you please explain it in detail?" Mr. Zhong still doesn't know what is going on.
"Your son was the first to start this. He fabricated the story of someone being kept by someone else on the Internet. He even paid someone to make this the number one trending topic. There are now hundreds of thousands of reposts and comments. The evidence is irrefutable and there is no denying it."
"This matter cannot be suppressed now. Once it goes to court, your son may be sentenced. Brother Zhong, I think it would be best for you to go to the other party in person and seek reconciliation. As long as this matter does not go to court, your son will be fine."
That's all I have to say. Deputy Director Zhang has done his best. His status is special and it is not appropriate for him to get involved in such matters.
"What happened? When will my son be able to come out?" Mother Zhong asked quickly when she saw Father Zhong hung up the phone.
Mr. Zhong threw his phone on the sofa and said, "Come out? You should think about how to visit him in prison when the time comes."
"Prison? Why are we going to prison?" Mother Zhong covered her chest with her hands, looking frightened.
"It's all because of your good son who caused all this trouble."
Mr. Zhong picked up his phone, and just then his secretary had found out what happened and sent the information to his phone.
Mr. Zhong opened the item his secretary sent him, took a look at it, and then handed the phone to Mrs. Zhong with a sullen face, "Take a good look at it."
After reading those things, Zhong's mother was puzzled and said, "This, this student named Qiu Shui was kept by someone else and was expelled from school. He doesn't respect himself, what does this have to do with Yujie?"
"If he was really being kept by someone, would he still be taken away for investigation? This was completely fabricated by your precious son. Now they are suing him for fabricating facts and malicious defamation. Look at the reposts and comments, there are hundreds of thousands of them. It's enough to send him to jail."
What Mr. Zhong didn't expect was that this matter was pushed to the hot search list by Zhong Yujie himself at his own expense.
Isn't this equivalent to handing the evidence to someone else and sending yourself to jail?
But Zhong's mother disagreed.
"But how can we be sure that my son fabricated the facts? I think Yujie is right. Look, there are photos. How could a poor student who can't even pay tuition get 10 million to buy gold if he is not kept by someone? I think Qiu Shui is kept by someone. Because my son exposed his affairs, he was so angry that he called the police to arrest my son and wanted to bite back."
Mr. Zhong himself felt that his son was not that stupid. If he was not sure that the student was being kept by someone, he would not have made such a big fuss about it.
Besides, how could a poor student possibly hire Cao Jingnian?
It is obvious that the poor student must be kept by someone. It’s just that the person who supports him is very powerful.
Mr. Zhong lit the same cigarette again and tried to calm himself down.
"Even if that student is really being kept by someone, the fact that he was able to hire Cao Jingnian proves that the person who kept him is not someone we can afford to offend. Yujie has no evidence. Just a few photos are useless. Once that poor student really sues Yujie, he will definitely go to jail."
Cao Jingnian and Cao Shunying are not joking.
"Then what should we do now?" Mother Zhong was so anxious that she jumped up and down at the thought of her son going to jail.
Mr. Zhong took a deep drag on his cigarette and then exhaled the white mist. "Let's go check on that student named Qiu Shui and see where he lives. Then we can go to his house and see if we can settle this matter privately."
Just as he finished speaking, Zhong's father denied it again, "No, we can't come to his house. His affairs are all over the streets now, and the person who supports him behind the scenes definitely doesn't want people to know about it. Let's talk to him through a lawyer."
On the other side, Qiu Shui soon received a call from Cao Jingnian.
"Mr. Qiu, there is solid evidence that you have been defamed. You can sue at any time."
"Because the short video uploaded by Zhong Yujie has a lot of comments and reposts, it has had a bad impact on you and has also had a serious impact on society. So once it goes to court, we can try to get Zhong Yujie sentenced to three years in prison."
"At the same time, we can also help Mr. Qiu claim compensation from the other party, at least 3 million in mental damages. But now, Zhong Yujie's parents want to meet Mr. Qiu and reconcile privately. I don't know what you think, Mr. Qiu..."
"Okay, I understand. Let's meet then."
Qiu Shui asked Cao Jingnian to help him make an appointment with Zhong Yujie's parents to meet at a cafe at two o'clock in the afternoon.
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Shui gave the system a thumbs up.
"Sure enough, the system is still reliable. You actually invited Cao Jingnian, who is a big shot in the legal field. I heard that he has a strong background."
Last year, the news that Cao Jingnian sent a business tycoon worth tens of billions of dollars to prison was a hot topic on the Internet for several days.
So Qiu Shui still knew about Cao Jingnian.
Unexpectedly, the system actually brought Cao Jingnian here to be his lawyer this time.
Sure enough, the system's ability to do things is amazing.
The system said arrogantly: "Of course, since we are going to hire a lawyer, we must hire the best one. As long as the host is willing to spend money, this system can also let Cao Jingnian become your personal lawyer."
"Private lawyer?" Qiu Shui shook his head. "Forget it. I heard that Cao Jingnian's appearance fee is quite high. I can't afford him as a private lawyer. Besides, I'm just an ordinary person. Why do I need a private lawyer?"
Anyway, it's impossible to take money out of Qiu Shui's pocket.
"The host has arranged to meet Zhong Yujie's parents. Do you want to let him go just like that? This system disagrees."
In the system's view, Zhong Yujie is now its enemy, so how can it let him go easily?
"No, Xiao Tongtong, sometimes, sending someone to prison may not be the best punishment. Let's wait and see."
Although Zhong Yujie went too far this time and caused Qiu Shui to be expelled from school and scolded by people all over the country.
But this matter was also caused by Qiu Shui himself.
He really wanted Zhong Yujie to be punished, but if a person really went to jail, his life would be ruined.
Qiu Shui is not a saint, and there is no huge hatred between him and Zhong Yujie.
He just wanted Zhong Yujie to be punished, but he didn't want to implicate innocent people.
I heard that Zhong Yujie's parents only have him as their son. If Zhong Yujie really goes to prison, how desperate his parents would be.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Qiu Shui arrived at the agreed coffee shop on time.
Thinking that the person he was going to meet was not important, Qiu Shui just put on some casual clothes and drove out on his electric car.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhong arrived half an hour ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were sitting in the coffee shop, in the corner by the window. Qiu Shui saw them as soon as he entered the room.
Although he had never met Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, many people were at work at this time. So there were only a few people in the cafe.
There were only the middle-aged couple, Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, looking around, obviously waiting for someone.
Qiu Shui sat down on the sofa opposite the two of them. The waiter came over to ask, and Qiu Shui casually ordered a cup of coffee.
As soon as the waiter left, Qiu Shui had no time to speak, and Zhong's mother, who was sitting opposite, frowned and asked with a look of disgust: "Are you Qiu Shui?"
When Qiu Shui saw Mother Zhong's attitude, he pursed his lips and said, "I am."
"I'm glad it's you." Mother Zhong looked at Qiu Shui up and down without any hesitation.
Seeing Qiu Shui wearing cheap clothes, his eyes stayed on the unknown brand mobile phone on the table for two seconds.
Then, he sneered, "I thought you were some kind of scumbag who could seduce the old lady and the old man to invite Cao Jingnian for you. Now it seems that Cao Jingnian was not invited for you at all. The two old ladies and the old man were afraid of damaging their reputation, so they invited him for themselves."
Qiu Shui's eyes turned cold instantly.
"Nian Xin..." Father Zhong stopped Mother Zhong with his eyes.
But in his heart, he agreed with what Zhong's mother said.
Before he met Qiu Shui, he thought that Cao Jingnian was invited by the two old ladies and the old man for Qiu Shui.
But after meeting Qiu Shui, I no longer think so.
Because Qiu Shui's appearance can only be considered pretty. He is only about 1.75 meters tall and very thin.
The temperament just looks good, but the cheap mobile phone on the desk suppresses the so-called temperament.
People with the same external conditions as Qiu Shui can be found everywhere on the streets.
Mr. Zhong didn't think that the two old men would really invite Cao Jingnian for the sake of this ordinary young man in front of them.
I think the two old people must have been involved because their son had implicated them when he exposed Qiu Shui.
Only then would he take action and invite Cao Jingnian.
If Qiu Shui was really favored by those two old people, he wouldn't be looking so poor now.
It is possible that the two old men had asked him to help buy the 10 million gold.
Therefore, if reconciliation is really necessary, it should not be with the young man in front of him, but with the two elderly people.
Mr. Zhong thought he understood the truth, and his attitude immediately changed.
"Young man, I called you here today because I wanted to talk to you about reconciliation. But now it seems that you are not the one who makes the decision. So, could you please give us the contact information of the two elders? Don't worry, we won't let you pay for nothing. We will help you deal with the matter of expelling you from the school, and we will also give you 300,000 Chinese yuan as compensation. What do you think?"
Although he was asking for help, Mr. Zhong's attitude when he spoke was condescending.
When he looked at Qiu Shui, his eyes were filled with unabashed disdain.
It was as if he didn't take Qiu Shui seriously at all, and the implication of his words seemed to have confirmed the fact that Qiu Shui was being kept by the two old people.
After hearing this, Qiu Shui sneered, "I originally thought that Zhong Yujie should bear the consequences of his own actions. He should not let others suffer, so I agreed to meet with you. Now it seems that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."
That's it, Qiu Shui felt, there was no need to talk any further. So he picked up the phone on the table and stood up.
"How can you talk like that? Didn't your parents teach you to respect your elders?" Mother Zhong slammed the table and said to Qiu Shui with disgust, "It seems that your parents are also uneducated, so they raised such an uneducated child."
Qiu Shui didn't expect that she would actually involve her parents in the matter.
Thinking of his parents who had taken such good care of him, Qiu Shui clenched his fists and said to Zhong's mother with gritted teeth: "Apologize, apologize to my parents right now."
"Apologize? Your poor, uneducated parents deserve an apology from me?" Mother Zhong seemed to have heard a huge joke. "I'm telling you, you'd better give us the contact information of those two elderly people. Otherwise, you can forget about the 300,000 Chinese Yuan compensation and your diploma."
"Are you threatening me?" Qiu Shui had a blank expression on his face, but his eyes were icy. Mother Zhong's words that insulted his parents without manners and upbringing made Qiu Shui furious.
Seeing Qiu Shui like this, Mr. Zhong said, "Okay, young man, stop pretending. We can add another 100,000 yuan to the compensation, but this is the last time. I hope you won't be greedy."
But Zhong's mother disagreed. "What do you mean by adding another 100,000? With his condition, he is only worth 100,000 at most. 300,000 is already too much. Just 300,000 in total, take it or leave it."
Qiu Shui was so angry that he laughed at the couple's words.
"Okay, very good." Qiu Shui sneered, "I don't want the 300,000 Chinese Yuan. I'd better keep it to buy you an urn."
After saying that, Qiu Shui snorted coldly and turned away.
"How dare you, you uneducated bastard, talk to us like that?" Mother Zhong shouted in anger, "Come back here."
How could Mother Zhong and Father Zhong let Qiu Shui chase after them so easily without getting the contact information of the two elderly people?
However, in just a blink of an eye, Qiu Shui disappeared.
