Hit-and-Run Incidents
"What?"
"Ling Yuanzhen, do you want to apologize again by holding up your ID card? Don't forget that the last time the school punished you was probation. Do you want to be punished again if you spread rumors again?"
"Do you still want to get familiar with each other the second time? Hahaha"
This sentence caused a burst of laughter from the few people who had not yet left the classroom.
Ling Yuanzhen was laughed at so hard that his head got hot and he became even more mad. He slammed the table fiercely and looked at his classmates who were laughing at him with a flushed face.
"What do you mean by spreading rumors? Chen Xiu disguised himself very well in front of you. Do you know what he is like in private? Besides, aren't there enough people like Chen Xiu in the entertainment industry who say one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes? Why do you think what I said is a rumor?"
"Why do you think Shen Xiu suddenly changed his car last night?"
When Chen Xiu participated in the roadshow, the fact that he changed his car became a hot topic, but it was just a small matter after all, and fans usually paid more attention to it.
Most people were still paying attention to Shen Xiu's Q&A yesterday about "Storm" and the release of "Storm".
Seeing that no one came to this classroom, the classmates estimated that no one would attend this classroom in the next class. They were not far from the next classroom and it would take less than a minute to walk there, so they simply did not rush to leave and asked Ling Yuanzhen while watching the show.
"Tsk, Ling Yuanzhen, why are you more concerned about Shen Xiu than us cultivators?"
"That's right. If you don't know, you might think you're a fan of Shen Xiu. Are you paying too much attention to Shen Xiu?"
“Or…you feel upset because Shen Xiu just gave our whole class tickets but not you?”
When Ling Yuanzhen heard his classmates say that he paid too much attention to Shen Xiu, his face suddenly changed, as if he had just realized something belatedly. His mind was buzzing for a moment, and he looked dazed and forgot to retort.
The people who were watching the show saw that Ling Yuanzhen was so horrified that he didn't say a word, and they suddenly felt bored and left together.
"Chen Xiu did a great job. I wouldn't send him off if it were me."
"But don't you think Ling Yuanzhen is a little weird? He pays too much attention to Shen Xiu. We used to live in the same dormitory. I heard from the two people in our class that Ling Yuanzhen often formed a group behind Shen Xiu's back. Fortunately, Shen Xiu moved away. Otherwise, living with such a person every day, tsk tsk... if he had bad intentions, it would be creepy..."
"I even wonder how Ling Yuanzhen got into Elite University. From his freshman year to now, he has never failed a single course."
Everyone had long disliked Ling Yuanzhen, but they did not live in the same dormitory with him. Now they were in their third and fourth years of college, so they were not afraid of retaliation and spoke in a low voice, so Ling Yuanzhen heard everything.
There was no class scheduled for the next period in this classroom, so no one came in. Ling Yuanzhen was the only one left in the classroom. In the corridor were students who were taking advantage of the break to rush to the next classroom with their books or backpacks.
Ling Yuanzhen gradually came back to his senses.
Ling Yuanzhen came back to his senses and thought about what his classmates had just said, and was speechless for a moment.
Ling Yuanzhen: “…”
Seeing that the next class was about to start, Ling Yuanzhen lowered his head, picked up the textbook on the table, took a step, and walked out stiffly.
As Ling Yuanzhen walked, he couldn't help but think of what those classmates had just said.
After being pointed out by his classmates, Ling Yuanzhen had to admit that in their original dormitory, before he knew Shen Xiu's family background, he always thought that the family backgrounds of the other two roommates were inferior to his, so he subconsciously turned his attention to Shen Xiu, the only one in the dormitory whose family background was worse than his and who often worked part-time jobs everywhere.
Unconsciously, he felt that Shen Xiu was the threshold for him to catch up with the other two roommates. He wanted to surpass Shen Xiu, so that he would not be at the bottom of the dormitory.
However, the more they compared, the more Ling Yuanzhen realized that even though Shen Xiu was poorer than him, except for money, Shen Xiu was better than him in everything else.
Even her height, appearance and temperament were far superior to those in the entire dormitory... no, in the entire school.
Later, he thought that the other two people in the dormitory were not as good as Chen Xiu, and tried countless times to win over the other two in an attempt to isolate Chen Xiu together.
But those two not only did not do what he wanted, they also acted as Shen Xiu's bootlickers, just because Shen Xiu took them with him when he did group work.
Unconsciously, Ling Yuanzhen didn't realize when he was going further and further astray and becoming more and more extreme.
He didn't even want to listen to what the teacher said in class. His attention was all on Shen Xiu. His grades plummeted. He was no longer the man who had been able to get into Jinghe after the college entrance examination. He kept failing...
if......
If Chen Xiu hadn't lived in the same dormitory with him, hadn't been in the same class with him, and even... hadn't pretended to be poor in front of him from the beginning, would he have become like this?
Perhaps, he can get along well with everyone in the dormitory.
Shen Xiu's family is obviously so rich, why did he have to lie to him?
Moreover, with a family background like Shen Xiu and a rich second generation like him, wouldn't they all study finance or go abroad to study directly?
Chen Xiu's college entrance examination score is obviously enough to get into the top-ranked major at Jinghe University, so why did he come to the Chinese Department's Film and Television Culture Class, which is not popular and has a low score requirement?
Furthermore, if Chen Xiu wanted to be a director, he could just go to the directing major at the Film Academy next door. Why did he have to come to Jinghe University?
If Chen Xiu hadn't come to Jinghe University and joined their class, he would still be the Ling Yuanzhen in high school whose mind was only focused on studying.
The more Ling Yuanzhen thought about it, the uglier his expression became, and the more he felt that Shen Xiu had been against him from the beginning to the end.
Ling Yuanzhen walked to the classroom for the next class, with less than a minute left before class started.
Before sitting down, Ling Yuanzhen couldn't help but glance at the back seat where Shen Xiu usually sat.
Shen Xiu: “…”
Don’t you just not want to give Ling Yuanzhen the movie ticket? Almost ten minutes have passed. Is it necessary for him to stare at me from the last classroom until now?
He has a bad temper and is as scary as ever.
Fortunately, he ran away early, otherwise he would have gone home every night to see Ling Yuanzhen's face like before...
Shen Xiu felt his brain was lacking oxygen just by thinking back to the past.
Ling Yuanzhen looked at Shen Xiu's expressionless face and felt that Shen Xiu was deliberately provoking him. He snorted coldly so that only he could hear it.
Feeling the mocking looks from other students in the class, his expression became uglier and he turned around and sat down.
This course is an elective course and is taught in a spacious lecture hall with students from different departments and classes attending the class together.
The film and television class that arrived before Ling Yuanzhen had already given Chen Xiu movie tickets to all of them, but they didn't tell the other classes that they didn't give Ling Yuanzhen any.
Everyone wanted to laugh more and more when they saw Ling Yuanzhen's "interaction" with Shen Xiu after he entered the classroom.
"Ling Yuanzhen really looks like a clown."
"Honestly, Shen Xiu's ruthless behavior is so cool, I love it!"
The person who was whispering was two rows behind Ling Yuanzhen, so it was hard for Ling Yuanzhen not to hear it.
The more he listened, the angrier Ling Yuanzhen became. He clenched his hands on his knees into fists, his face gloomy, and he couldn't hear what the teacher was saying.
At twelve o'clock, the morning class ends.
As soon as the bell rang, Ling Yuanzhen picked up the book on the table that had not been opened throughout the class, and left through the back door with a grim expression.
Ling Yuanzhen didn't go to the cafeteria. He walked straight back to the dormitory, turned on his mobile phone, and saved the screenshots received on his secondary account to his mobile phone.
Thinking of the lesson from last time, Ling Yuanzhen didn't dare to send using his own account and IP address. He found a baseball cap and a mask in his closet and put them on. After being fully armed, he picked up his mobile phone, stood up and opened the dormitory door.
The two roommates came back from the cafeteria after getting their meals. Before they could take out their keys to open the door, the dormitory door was opened from the inside, and they came face to face with Ling Yuanzhen who was about to go out.
The three of them looked at each other in silence.
Ling Yuanzhen has a twisted mentality. Everyone lives in the same dormitory and is afraid of accidents. The two roommates do not want to cause trouble, so they adhere to the principle of less trouble is more important and silently step aside.
Ling Yuanzhen also walked past the two of them without saying a word and strode away.
Ling Yuanzhen's back disappeared, and the two of them closed the dormitory door before talking out loud.
"What is he doing in such a hurry?"
"Is he going to pick a fight with Chen Xiu? I really don't understand. How can Chen Xiu's excellence hinder him? He has been targeting Chen Xiu since they lived in the same dormitory. When he saw Chen Xiu working outside, he got so excited that he was like taking drugs. He kept talking to Chen Xiu when he was not around. He has been talking to him for two whole months. Didn't he see that Chen Xiu ignored his shady tricks from the beginning?"
"To put it bluntly, it's just jealousy. He's jealous that Chen Xiu is taller, more handsome, more capable, and has a better background than him..."
Wearing a baseball cap and a mask, Ling Yuanzhen arrived at a black Internet cafe where one could access the Internet without an ID card.
Ling Yuanzhen didn't dare to use the account he had registered before, so he found a relative on his own number page, put on headphones, and patiently taught the relative how to operate the account in his native language while creating a new account using his relative's mobile phone number.
After the small account was created, Ling Yuanzhen transferred the screenshots he received to his computer and posted them using the computer in the black Internet cafe, deliberately adding various tags related to Chen Xiu.
@0925527629: #Chen Xiu's car accident# #Chen Xiu is lawless and doesn't care about the accident# #Chen Xiu drove a car into someone and then drove away in a luxury car# #Chen Xiu's car accident scene# #The Galaxy captain Chen Xiu hit someone and fled the scene to let others deal with it# #Chen Xiu is irresponsible#
Image X2
Just two simple photos, with countless hashtags.
Jian Jiayu was at the scene, knew the truth, and was hostile to Shen Xiu, so the photos he took would naturally reflect his own subjective wishes.
The first picture shows a traffic policeman talking to a taxi driver who looks nervous. The second picture shows Manager Wu, who is wearing a suit and leather shoes and talking to a traffic policeman.
Both photos only showed a small part of the car, and did not capture the specific circumstances of the rear-end collision of the car that Shen Xiu had hit.
The focus of the picture is on the traffic police, the taxi driver, and Manager Wu who rushed to help Shen Xiu deal with the rear-end collision.
In the picture, it is unclear what the traffic police said to the taxi driver. The taxi driver's eyes were obviously red under the street light, and he looked like he was about to cry.
Manager Wu's face was full of smiles.
Looking at the words "sent successfully", Ling Yuanzhen couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth behind the mask.
The depression that had been suppressed for the whole morning was finally relieved at this moment. As for what the truth was, Ling Yuanzhen didn't care at all.
Anyway, no one knows who sent this message, and netizens will only know that Chen Xiu did not care about the accident and was only interested in participating in the "Storm" roadshow to make money.
The relative whose number he borrowed couldn't speak Mandarin fluently, lived in a remote mountain village, and used an old-fashioned phone. Most importantly, his brain wasn't very good and his memory was poor.
Even if Chen Xiu had great powers and could find out about his relative, that stupid relative wouldn't be able to say anything.
Ling Yuanzhen cleared his browsing history, went to the front desk to pay the Internet fee, and left the black Internet cafe with peace of mind.
Online.
The words "Chen Xiu car accident" were enough to arouse the gossip curiosity of netizens. Driven by curiosity, everyone clicked on this blog post and the accompanying picture below.
It’s inevitable to comment after clicking.
Some people just wanted to watch the fun and @Chen Xiu's account. Fans naturally didn't want to believe that Chen Xiu would hit someone and flee after a car accident, so they also @Chen Xiu.
Chen Xiu's haters were even more excited. They were afraid of being sued by the lawyers behind Chen Xiu, so they dared not speak out. They could only forward the string of digital accounts that had obviously not been changed, in a sarcastic tone.
——So, this is why Shen Xiu changed the car he drove during the road show?
——It’s fake, right? Who is hiding behind the Internet and spreading rumors? I don't believe Xiubao would do such a thing, wait for the truth @沉修
——Wow, the taxi driver whose car was hit was so pitiful. Looking at the photo, he was almost crying. A man of such an old age was in such a miserable state. It reminded me of my simple old father. People in the countryside can’t bear to see this. Can you do whatever you want just because you have money? Doesn't your conscience hurt? @Chen Xiu
——It is obviously a new account that has just been registered. It is too cheap to spread rumors. There are only two pictures, and the condition of the car is not released. The attempt to lead the discussion is too obvious. Who is behind this? @Lawyer@XiuXiu Studio is working
——I don't understand, just sit there and wait for the truth. When you find the truth, remember to kick me. My butt is sticking out.
——Does your conscience really not hurt? @Chen Xiu
There were so many people commenting, reposting and liking the post that less than five minutes after Ling Yuanzhen posted the post, the incident of Shen Xiu’s hit-and-run became a hot topic on several search engines.
Shen Xiu had finished his meal and was taking a nap.
The system that manages Chen Xiu's two accounts received countless @s from netizens. After hesitating for less than three seconds, it immediately chose to wake up Chen Xiu.
System: [Wake up, someone said you were involved in a hit-and-run accident...]
With his eyes closed, Shen Xiu suddenly heard the words he was most afraid of hearing since he started driving in his mind. He was so scared that he opened his eyes in a second, sat up and refuted in fear: "I didn't!"
system:【......】
Is this still the Chen Xiu who used to drive for his life, almost to the outer space? !
After he finished speaking, Shen Xiu finally sobered up.
After waking up, Shen Xiu looked at everything familiar in front of him, then looked down and saw himself sitting obediently on the bed without driving. He breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but raise his hand to gently pat his pounding heart soothingly, muttering to himself.
"I woke up so hard. I dreamed that someone slandered me and drove away. I was scared to death..."
System: [I said that. 】
Shen Xiu: “?”
"I didn't!" Shen Xiu stressed it out again as if in response to pressure.
System: [...I know, but someone said that online and it became a hot topic on several search engines. 】
Shen Xiu was even more confused: “?”
After being confused, Shen Xiu became angry. He opened the quilt and stepped on his slippers. At the same time, he picked up his phone and said angrily, "Let me see who is slandering me!"
You can say that he has poor driving skills, after all, he rarely drives on the road, but how can you slander him for hit-and-run?
Chen Xiu, who had eaten melons on Weibo many times, was already very familiar with the melon-eating base camp.
It’s just that he used to secretly eat gossip about other artists in the circle, but now he eats his own gossip.
Shen Xiu logged into his social account and skillfully clicked on the hot search topic.
Seeing that many people in the topic @ed him under an account with a string of numbers, Shen Xiu asked himself if his conscience would hurt. He was puzzled, and angrily forwarded one of the messages and typed a response.
@沉修: No//@Follow me and I’ll show you the stock market: Doesn’t your conscience hurt?
——...Familiar taste, familiar response, you are worthy of being my boss Xiu, as strong as ever!
——Boss Xiu said no, which means there was no hit-and-run. Get rid of all the rumors!
After sending it unhappily, Shen Xiu realized that he had not yet explained the whole story, so he forwarded it again to explain.
@Chen Xiu: The car was rear-ended, that's all. //@Chen Xiu: No//
——It turned out that Xiubao’s car was rear-ended. I touched Xiubao and luckily nothing happened. Wait, if someone hadn’t suddenly spread the rumor, did Xiubao intend to tell us about the car accident and rear-end collision?
——Xiu Bao didn’t even repost the most popular rumor on Weibo. Is it because there are other people’s photos on it? Let’s report that rumor-mongering Weibo. It’s not good to spread other people’s uncensored frontal photos like this.
——Let’s go and report the other party for spreading rumors!
——If that car was rear-ended, the other party would be in great trouble...
Jian Jiayu had only seen the negative trending search about Chen Xiu for less than a minute when he saw Chen Xiu’s response.
When Jian Jiayu went to look for the negative hot searches about Chen Xiu hitting someone again, he found that the hot search topics and rumor blog posts had disappeared.
Jian Jiayu: “…”
What a piece of shit! It's a pity that he took such great pains to take the photo before!
In the hospital.
Master Wang hurried to his child's ward carrying an insulated box.
When he entered the room, he saw two families in the ward. He walked quietly to Wang Qin's side. Although he was angry, he lowered his voice: "Isn't this nonsense! When did Shen Xiu bump into me?"
Wang Qin: “Ah?”
Wang Qin was confused: "Dad, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
Master Wang then remembered that he had not shown his cell phone to Wang Qin, so he quickly put the thermal box on the small table, took out his cell phone, opened the photo album, and showed Wang Qin the photos taken on other people's cell phones of what he overheard others say while he was getting food.
“Look, they said Shen Xiu hit me, isn’t that nonsense!”
Wang Qin frowned when he saw his father, who did not have a social media account like Weibo, using his mobile phone to take pictures of the interface that others showed him.
Take the phone that you left on the table for a few hours without charging and it ran out of power and shut down.
After reading Shen Xiu's response, Wang Qin breathed a sigh of relief.
Said to his father: “Dad, Shen Xiu has clarified it.”
Upon hearing this, Master Wang's frown relaxed: "That's good, that's good. Chen Xiu is a good person, and we can't let people misunderstand him."
Wang Qin added, “Dad, I want to repost Shen Xiu’s Weibo post, saying that Shen Xiu waived the repair fee for our family. Is that okay?”
Master Wang nodded hurriedly: "Of course."
Only after getting his father's permission did Wang Qin open his own account, clicked to forward Shen Xiu's blog post, deleted and reduced some content in the edit box, hesitated several times, and finally decided to send it.
@向日葵: My father rear-ended Shen Xiu's car because he did not check his brakes in time. Shen Xiu was the victim of the rear-end collision. Shen Xiu did not flee the scene of the accident. Afterwards, after Manager Wu informed him of the true situation of my family, he took the initiative to waive the repair costs that my father should have borne. Our family is very grateful to Shen Xiu, thank you! @Chen Xiu: The car was rear-ended, that's all.
——After reading the blogger’s homepage, I found out that he is Xiubao’s schoolmate. I wish him to recover from his illness and return to school soon.
——Wow, Xiubao, really, I’m crying my ass off!
——As a qualified Xiu scholar, I can guarantee that if the blogger had not taken the initiative to speak out about this matter, Xiu Bao would definitely not tell us about this!
——So...are we just going to let the rumormongers go? I am fed up with these people who spread rumors based on a few pictures. They should all be arrested.
With Chen Xiu's tough stance and the clarification from the family of the other person involved in the rear-end collision, the entire network knew that Chen Xiu's hit-and-run incident was a rumor.
Fans repeatedly questioned the account that spread the rumors, but the other party was not even online.
After Chen Xiu posted his clarification, he did not check Weibo again, but asked the system to find the person who spread the rumor.
Chen Xiu didn't like the feeling of being stared at from behind in the first place. Now that he was being stared at in a dark corner unknown to him, he felt even more uncomfortable.
However, the system rejected Shen Xiu's request.
System: [I'm tired. The computer is in the study. You can figure it out by yourself. 】
Shen Xiu: “…”
Without waiting for Chen Xiu's response, the system disappeared without a trace.
Without finding out who was watching him from behind, Shen Xiu couldn't continue his nap. He walked into the study and turned on his own laptop.
Next to Shen Xiu's laptop was a stack of books on computers that had obviously been read through.
Ever since he had looked at the system program last time, Chen Xiu was afraid that the system would let him look at its program again. He was even more afraid that he would mess up the system program while browsing, so he bought a lot of books on computers and artificial intelligence.
Although he had watched it several times, this was the first time he had actually practiced it. Shen Xiu's palms were sweating unconsciously as he kept typing on the laptop keyboard.
In less than a minute, Shen Xiu looked at the address that appeared and murmured in confusion: "So...it's so simple?"
Shen Xiu was afraid that he had made a mistake, so he tried it again and found that the result was exactly the same as what he had found last time.
Knowing the address, Shen Xiu picked up his phone and left home...
good evening!
