Chapter 42 Compromise (Part 2)

  "Do you know why you're here tonight?" Zhu Qihua asked.

  Liu Xuan smiled slightly: "I know why I'm here tonight, but I don't know why you're here. Logically speaking, the secretary-general of a municipal government shouldn't appear in a place like an interrogation room."

  Zhu Qihua sighed: "About what happened tonight, you really don't know anything?"

  "I've been here all night, how would I know what happened outside?"

  Zhu Qihua stared at Liu Xuan's good-looking eyes and saw that the other party was not pretending, so he said: "Zhu Feng has been framed by someone and is now in the hospital."

  Liu Xuan smiled, and his smile was filled with joy: "Well done."

  Ignoring Liu Xuan's attitude, Zhu Qihua frowned and asked, "Tell me, who did it?"

  "Secretary Zhu, if I said I don't know who did it, would you believe me?"

  "I don't believe it."

  "Hmph." Liu Xuan coldly snorted: "Although I don't know who did it, but I can help you speculate a bit. Your precious son has gotten so many women pregnant and then abandoned them, just the ones he's gotten pregnant and dumped are in the dozens. The families and friends of these women, which one doesn't hate your son to the bone? Even hiring someone to take care of your son with a black hand isn't an unreasonable thing to do."

  In fact, Liu Xuan really had no bottom line in her heart about whether the phone call she made today would be effective or not.

  Not to mention that she and Wang Zhong only met once, although Wang Zhong saved her last time, helped her fight a battle, and then also helped to torture Zhu Feng into half death. However, this time she is facing the Secretary General of the Municipal Government, Zhu Qiuhua, who is not just an ordinary person. With his official position, he can mobilize very powerful forces to serve him. Therefore, she really has no confidence in whether Wang Zhong will lend a hand.

  But thinking of the man handing her a bottle of wine and saying "go beat him up" with a domineering tone, a smile couldn't help but appear in Liu Xuan's eyes. A kind-hearted man like this, how could he bow down to evil forces?

  But everything is going in a good direction.

  Looking at Zhu Qihua's face, it was clear that his own son had been made a mess of by someone, otherwise he wouldn't have taken the risk to come to the Public Security Bureau himself to ask for clarification.

  It must be Wang Zheng who did it, it must be him.

  Thinking of the scene where the two first met, Liu Xuan couldn't help but reveal a smile.

  "Do you know who did it, right?" Looking at Liu Xuan's slightly distracted expression, Zhu Qihua lit a cigarette and said: "I want to have a talk with him, you help me arrange it, and I'll let you out."

  Liu Xuan also knew that the longer he stayed here, the more harm he would cause to Secretary Zhu. With that man's temperament, he would absolutely not be content with just beating Zhu Feng severely.

  "I really don't know." But in an instant, Liu Xuan had already made up her mind, and her choice was to believe Wang Zhong.

  Zhu Qihua seemed somewhat unexpected, because in his view, Liu Xuan really had no reason and no trump card to support her doing so.

  It seems that this son of mine has gotten himself into a romantic entanglement.

  Zhu Qihua hesitated.

  Is it worth taking a huge risk to send the girl to prison for two or three years, and then have myself and my family be on tenterhooks all the time, guarding against endless retaliation, or should I just compromise, take a step back, and let things settle?

  To be honest, after witnessing the shocking scene tonight and seeing his own son covered in blood, Zhu Qihua really felt a chill run down his spine. This was an unprecedented fear. Think about it, if someone can just barge into your home, torture your family, and then leave without a care, what kind of sense of security would you have left?

  Zhu Qihua couldn't swallow this breath, and it was precisely because of this that he felt very conflicted, very conflicted.

  "Director Ge, sorry to trouble you." Zhu Qihua handed a cigarette to Pingjiang Branch Bureau Director Ge Caihua.

  Ge Caihua took it with a somewhat surprised and pleased expression, saying: "Secretary Zhu, this is what I should do. What's your opinion next?"

  Ge Caihua's intention was to probe Zhu Qihua's attitude, see how he should interrogate the girl. He had also reviewed the interrogation records himself. If the records were consistent with the facts, then this female student named Liu Xuan was indeed acting in self-defense. As for later using wolf-repellent spray on Zhu Qihua's wife, that didn't constitute a crime either. At most, she would be detained for a few days and then fined.

  Zhu Qihua remained silent for a long time before saying, "Let's wait and see, lock him up for two days first."

  Zhu Qihua's intention was to wait and see what the other side would do next, if they retreated like this, he really couldn't swallow his pride, how could someone who had been in a superior position for so long easily accept this?

  If he retreated like this, then from now on, he would not be able to hold his head up in front of his son and loved one.

  But what Zhu Qihua did not expect was that on the second day, a petition parade incident occurred at Capital Normal University.

  In China, parades and demonstrations on the streets need to be registered with the public security bureau several days in advance. However, parades and signature collection activities within the campus do not require these procedures.

  When the young counselor informed the class leader of the intention to march, the two immediately set out to prepare. It has to be said that Liu Xuan, a campus belle at Capital Normal University, had an enormous mobilizing power. When the men learned that Liu Xuan was framed by Zhu Feng and suffered injustice, each one expressed strong indignation.

  Especially when the person involved is the notorious Zhu Feng, this point has even more enraged the boys. A dark and fat boy who looks so ugly can actually hook up with so many beauties, isn't it just because he has a good father? Zhu Feng's numerous scandals have long made the boys extremely resentful. Why do those goddesses not notice themselves when they look better than him and their grades are better than his? Isn't it just because Zhu Feng is rich and powerful?!

  In today's era where stories of high-rich-handsome men and goddesses are popular on the internet, ordinary university students' jealousy and anger towards so-called official second-generation and rich second-generation are always present. Zhu Feng's example is a typical one, now, the male students of Shida must start a resistance movement against high-rich-handsome men.

  After Liuxuan's class publicized it, the story of Liuxuan bravely fighting against Zhu Feng despite his powerful background was embellished even more. Flyers had been distributed all over the campus, and some male students even voluntarily formed teams to hand out flyers at several subway entrances in the capital with the largest passenger flow, speaking out for Liuxuan.

  At the entrance of the Capital Normal University office building, a 20-meter-long banner was stretched out with the words "Oppose official second-generation Zhu Feng, restore Liu Xuan's innocence!"

  Those boys didn't need any encouragement and one after another picked up their pens and signed their names on the banner.

  The counselor did not expect that Liu Xuan would have such a strong mass base among the boys, and the 20-meter banner prepared in advance was not enough to use. In just one hour, it was filled with the names of Long Fei Feng Wu. After signing their names, these boys were reluctant to leave, standing beside the banner, constantly expressing their indignation.

  Suddenly someone shouted loudly: "Down with official second-generation Zhu Feng, return Liu Xuan's innocence!"

  The crowd came to their senses, and after a while, several people followed suit, shouting slogans in a scattered manner.

  Overthrow official second generation Zhu Feng, return Liu Xuan's innocence!

  Slogans are being shouted, and more and more people are joining in. University students are a group of extremely passionate and enthusiastic individuals, who can't help but get excited about such thrilling events - who wouldn't want to shout along?

  Then, the Capital Normal University presented a rare spectacle, with thousands of male students in front of the office building waving their arms and shouting loudly to oppose the rich handsome guys and overthrow the second generation of officials, which was the most desired goal for these university boys.

  Slogans shook the sky, and the scene was magnificent beyond compare.

  For some reason, the Capital Normal University has become like this, and no teachers or staff have come out to stop it. It seems that these teachers had already received some kind of instruction beforehand not to intervene in this matter.

  It's unknown who was behind the scenes, but on the day of the demonstration and march, dozens of reporters from major and minor newspapers suddenly appeared, all carrying cameras, gathering at the Capital Normal University as if China was holding some kind of representative conference.

  When the camera was aimed at the loudly shouting students, these young men who were already filled with righteous indignation became even more so. Many of them were pulled out by reporters for interviews and they spoke passionately, spitting everywhere as they told the reporters about Zhu Feng's misdeeds without reservation. Of course, in their statements denouncing him, Zhu Feng's great achievements grew exponentially, such as Zhu Feng getting over a dozen girls pregnant, and in these students' mouths, he had already become the father of dozens of aborted fetuses.

  On that day, Baidu Tieba, Sina Weibo and various portal websites were all filled with information about the students of Capital Normal University denouncing the rich second generation.

  Of course, the development of the situation is in line with the young instructor's expectations. Now, the Internet is filled with news about Capital Normal University, and things have already reached an uncontrollable state.

  As Zhu Feng's name became more and more popular on the Chinese internet, people also began to dig up information about his parents, Zhu Qiuhua and Ye Hui, whose names started to surface.

  His father was the secretary-general of the metropolitan government office, and his mother used her husband's connections to open a cultural company that became a designated procurement unit for the metropolitan government. This background alone is enough to provoke people's anger towards Zhu Feng, and of course, combined with Zhu Feng's romantic scandals, he is like a mainland version of Li Zongrui.
