After handing it over to the system, the three brothers knelt down and begged for forgiveness

"It's not like we haven't encountered this before. Jing Cheng will be out soon. When the time comes, his company will issue a clarification statement, and the matter will be over. You don't have to worry too much about him."

Lan Xuxue breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt that she was thinking too much. The Lan family had a considerable influence in Kyoto, and this little thing should not ruin Lan Jingcheng's reputation.

As long as Lan Jingcheng is safe, he won't give her away.

She smiled and said, "Then I'm relieved and will wait for good news from Big Brother."

At this moment, students gathered in groups of three or four in the classroom, whispering.

"Oh, I didn't expect Lan Xuxue's third brother to be arrested by the police. I thought I could get her autograph and take a photo with her, but now it seems all is lost."

"That's right. If someone gets arrested, their career might be over. Those autographed photos and stuff will instantly become worthless."

"I was hoping for a chance to watch the game, but now that's completely gone."

"Life is so unpredictable. A big star who was once so glorious has ended up like this in the blink of an eye."

"Don't blindly chase after celebrities anymore. Who knows when something might go wrong?"

"I used to envy Lan Xuxue for having a big star brother, but now she's become like this."

"I heard that being taken away by the police must have been a serious crime. I guess Lan Xuxue won't be able to show off in school anymore."

"She was so proud before, but now let's see what she's going to do. Autographed photos and stuff are like waste paper now."

"Once a star has a stain, it's very difficult to recover. Lan Jingcheng is probably in great danger this time, and it's time for Lan Xuxue to wake up."

"We used to revolve around her, but now we think it was foolish. Her third brother is already like this, so she has nothing to be proud of."

……

Lan Xuxue sat there, hearing the whispers of her classmates.

Those words pierced her heart like sharp thorns, making her face even uglier.

Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and stood up suddenly.

"Stop talking! My third brother has done nothing wrong. This is all a misunderstanding!" Lan Xuxue's voice was a little sharp, and her eyes were full of impatience and anger.

The classmates were startled by her sudden rebuttal and fell silent for a moment.

Lan Xuxue continued, "My third brother's company will soon issue an announcement explaining this matter, and you'll all know then. My third brother is a rising star in the esports world, and he'll definitely be fine."

Then she raised her head and said proudly, "And do you think that if something happens to him, our Lan family will not help him?"

"If you continue to slander my third brother and affect the reputation of the Lan family, we, the Lan family, will definitely sue you!"

Hearing Lan Xuxue say this, the students looked at each other in confusion.

After a while, a classmate spoke cautiously, "Maybe it really is a misunderstanding. After all, when you are famous, you are prone to gossip and it's easy to be framed."

This sentence seemed to open a door, and other students also echoed it.

"Yeah, maybe it really is a misunderstanding. Jingshen is so powerful, humorous and witty, and he looks like a kind-hearted boy. He will definitely be fine."

"We were too impulsive before. Xiaoxue, don't be angry. We believe your third brother will be fine soon."

Everyone changed the subject and began to flatter Lan Xuxue again.

After hearing these words, Lan Xuxue seemed to regain some of her confidence. She raised her chin slightly, with a hint of pride on her face.

"Of course, my third brother will be fine. Just wait and see when the company's announcement comes out." Lan Xuxue's tone was full of confidence, as if she had already seen the moment when her third brother was proven innocent.

At the police station, Zhao Gang received a notice that all the people involved in the incident had been taken to the police station, so he hurried over.

Before he could take any action, the Lan family took a series of actions.

Lan Zhiming and Jiang Peishan hurried to the police station with money and tried to take Lan Jingcheng away.

Lan Zhiming said to Officer Wang, who was in charge of the case, with a broad smile on his face, "Officer, this must be a misunderstanding. Our son Jingcheng would never have done anything illegal, but we are willing to pay the fine, even if it's several times the amount. Please let us take our son home and educate him properly."

Officer Wang looked at them and snorted coldly, "What do you think of the police station? Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have money?"

"Well, we can provide a guarantor or pay a bond and issue a letter of guarantee, guaranteeing that he won't evade or obstruct the investigation and will appear when summoned. That should be fine, right?"

Jiang Peishan's eyes were red and her voice was choked. "Let me see my son."

Officer Wang frowned and looked at Lan Zhiming and Jiang Peishan seriously.

"No! Lan Jingcheng's case is serious and can't be solved by just paying a fine or finding a guarantor."

"The police station has its own procedures and principles. We must act in accordance with the law. We cannot give you a break just because he is a public figure or you have money." Officer Wang's voice was firm and unquestionable.

Lan Zhiming and Jiang Peishan looked at each other with anxious expressions on their faces.

Jiang Peishan tried to plead again: "Officer, can't we just see him? He must have been wrongly accused. We know our son well."

Officer Wang shook his head. "Until the case is fully investigated, no one can see him. You should go back and wait for news. Don't try to interfere with our law enforcement."

Lan Zhiming wanted to say something, but was stopped by Officer Wang's stern look.

On the other hand, Lan Yuchen contacted the Minister of Propaganda for help.

The Minister of Propaganda, who was unaware of the situation, happened to call at this time and pleaded for Lan Jingcheng: "Officer Wang, Lan Jingcheng is a public figure. Can you give him a lighter sentence? He has also made contributions to our publicity work."

Zhao Gang heard his voice and took the phone from Officer Wang. "Minister, this matter cannot be handled leniently. Lan Jingcheng's case is taken very seriously by the higher-ups. We must act according to the law and cannot give him special treatment just because of his status."

"If we set a precedent this time, where will the dignity of the law be in the future?"

Zhao Gang's words were firm and decisive, leaving no room for maneuver.

The Minister of Propaganda was silent for a moment. When he heard Zhao Gang's voice, he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter: "Okay, I understand. You can handle it according to the law."

Lan Zhiming and Jiang Peishan saw Zhao Gang and couldn't help but ask Officer Wang, "Officer Wang, who is this?"

"This is our leader, oh, our boss's boss. This time, Lan Jingcheng's matter has been handed over to Director Zhao."

Lan Zhiming and Jiang Peishan's eyes lit up when they heard this. Director Zhao? It seems he has the final say on this matter!

The two were about to plead with Zhao Gang, but Zhao Gang sneered and looked at them and said, "I am also one of the protagonists of Lan Jingcheng's rumor."
