Chapter 291 Liao Xuexue’s Mentor
Chapter 291: Chapter 291 Liao Xuexue’s Mentor
Ye Chen nodded.
Actually, he hadn’t kept in touch with his high school or even his college classmates.
Unless someone got married, he wouldn’t attend, just sending money via WeChat.
Nowadays society is too pragmatic, the old school camaraderie no longer exists.
When you meet, they either ask how many houses your family owns or what kind of car you drive.
If you’re not as well-off as they are, you might get mocked.
If they’re not as well-off as you are, they flatter you.
What’s the point?
As Ye Chen drove, he pondered and finally shook his head helplessly.
Society today is indeed somewhat sick; everybody attaches too much importance to money.
Although Ye Chen, who has lived two lives, understands that money is the ultimate truth,
he believes that, more than money, he needs to catch a fish, a real, living fish...
Just as Ye Chen was thinking wildly,
Liao Xuexue, sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly spoke up.
"By the way, Mr. Ye, I saw your response to Cui Ruogou and those little trolls yesterday."
Yesterday evening in the dorms,
Liao Xuexue waited in front of her phone until eight o’clock.
Because Ye Chen had said he would release a statement at exactly eight to explain everything to the netizens.
When Liao Xuexue heard that the notorious Zhang San was going to help Ye Chen with the lawsuit, she breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, with the help of Teacher Zhang San, Ye Chen was sure to win this defamation lawsuit.
As Ye Chen continued to drive, he smiled and replied, "Oh? What do you think of my approach?"
Liao Xuexue nodded vigorously, then gazed at Ye Chen behind the wheel, who was driving, with admiring eyes.
"The approach was indeed very good. Actually, you should have taught Cui Ruogou and those online trolls a lesson last time."
"I was too merciful back then," Ye Chen said wryly, feeling his past ideas were somewhat naive.
When Cui Ruogou first started questioning him, there were indeed many bandwagoners, trolls, and keyboard warriors questioning and denigrating him online.
In the end, Ye Chen only scared those trolls a bit and taught a lesson to Cui Ruogou, the head troll.
Who knew that these online keyboard warriors and trolls would be ungrateful for his mercy?
Instead, they’ve jumped out again to question, slander, and attack him online.
This time, Ye Chen had no intention of letting them off easily.
So, last night, Ye Chen also selected a few "lucky viewers" in the comments section of Douyin, making those trolls pay a price.
You enjoy keyboard warfare online, don’t you?
Fine, go ahead, and I’ll hit back with a lawyer’s notice!
Even if it’s just a few thousand yuan in compensation, it’s not a large sum, but it will surely hurt those trolls for a while.
After all, casually mouthing off online has cost them thousands of yuan.
This lesson is indeed profoundly societal.
At this moment, Liao Xuexue, sitting in the passenger seat, seemed to think of something.
So she said, "By the way, Mr. Ye, since you’re going to sue them, have you submitted the court appearance application to the relevant department?"
Ye Chen shook his head: "Not yet, I came out to relax with you. After I drop you off at school, I’ll run the errand myself."
Liao Xuexue sighed, "I really think the sooner this gets done, the better. After all, the longer it drags on, the more things can happen."
Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders with a smile, "I know, but I still have to go through the official procedures for a hearing, which will take at least a week at the fastest."
What a joke!
I wish I could speed it up, but some necessary procedures still have to be followed.
That’s just how it is everywhere.
Liao Xuexue also nodded thoughtfully.
She looked at the streetscape outside the window and, after being silent for a few minutes, turned to Ye Chen.
"Mr. Ye, maybe I could help you with this matter?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen laughed, "How can you help me? The official procedures are there, can you actually get us a backdoor entry?"
Liao Xuexue nodded, "Believe it or not, it seems like I really can. Have you met my mentor, Zhou Fanghua? Her husband works in the relevant department and I’ve heard he’s quite influential. If we ask her, I’m sure your lawsuit against Cui Ruogou and the others could be processed much faster."
Ye Chen’s interest was piqued.
Just last time, after he caught the Tang Dynasty blue and white porcelain, Liao Xuexue’s mentor Zhou Fanghua was one of the first to arrive at the scene.
She even spoke a few words to Ye Chen.
He hadn’t expected Zhou Fanghua to have such connections.
At that moment, Ye Chen became excited.
Being able to go to court sooner was a good thing for him.
He was well aware that the longer the matter drags on, the more disadvantageous it is for him.
Thinking this, Ye Chen, with an excited expression, looked at Liao Xuexue in the passenger seat and said.
"That’s great!"
"Call your mentor now and let her know about this and if needed, we’ll meet her husband."
Liao Xuexue nodded and took out her phone to call Zhou Fanghua.
"Hello, Xuexue, what’s up?"
The phone was on speaker, and Zhou Fanghua’s voice came through the receiver.
Her voice sounded tired, probably exhausted from recent archaeological work.
Liao Xuexue organized her thoughts and then recounted the online harassment and malicious defamation Ye Chen had been subjected to, to Zhou Fanghua.
From Cui Ruogou releasing defamation videos claiming he was hired by Ye Chen,
to the online trolls trying to sway public opinion and distort the facts, turning the netizens against him,
and finally, to the "fair" video released by Xue Tiezhu.
In five or six minutes, Liao Xuexue recounted Ye Chen’s recent encounters and informed Zhou Fanghua of Ye Chen’s course of action.
"Master Zhou, that’s the situation, so I..."
Before she could finish, Zhou Fanghua interrupted from the other end of the phone.
"Xuexue, I’ve heard about this."
"You know, although we’ve always had a teacher-student relationship, you are my proudest student, and I’ve always treated you like my own child."
"Your little boyfriend is exceptionally outstanding; wasn’t he selected as one of Jiang City’s Five-Good Youths?"
"Don’t worry, I’ll get my husband to help you. I’ll speak to him first, then send you his number, and you can contact him directly. Anyway, I’ll support you all the way."
