The True Thousand Gold Possessions of the Myriad Realms Trading System

Zhou Danhan's expression changed, but she calmed down in the next moment and asked Mrs. Zhou, "Mom, what's going on?"

She did not commit a crime; she had previously attempted to incite a crime but failed, so it was impossible for her to be taken away by the police.

Before Mrs. Zhou could speak, one of the police officers said, "Ms. Zhou Danhan, right? You are suspected of online defamation. Please come with us for investigation."

"I didn't!" Zhou Danhan denied vehemently. "I was just talking online. I have freedom of speech. You can't arrest me!"

The policeman who spoke first said, "We have preliminary evidence. Please come with us."

"No, I won't leave! I haven't done anything wrong, you can't arrest me!" When Zhou Danhan heard that there was evidence, her face turned pale and she panicked. She instinctively denied it in a high-pitched voice and backed away, afraid that she would be taken away at any moment.

The police took out handcuffs and said that if she refused to go to the police station for investigation, they would take coercive measures.

Zhou Danhan panicked completely when she saw the gleaming handcuffs. She looked at Mrs. Zhou crying and said, "Mom, I didn't, I really didn't! Please tell Dad to come and save me!"

Mrs. Zhou only knew that Zhou Danhan had committed a crime, but she did not know that she had been taken away for investigation on charges of online defamation. Upon hearing this, she hurriedly asked the police officer, "Officer, who did my daughter defame?"

"Ms. Zhou Danhan is suspected of defaming Ms. Ruan Mianmian. The defamatory information is extremely absurd and not only damages Ms. Ruan Mianmian's reputation but also harms the reputation of Peking University. The number of views and clicks on the defamatory information has reached hundreds of millions, and the number of reposts and likes has exceeded ten million. The circumstances are very serious."

Mrs. Zhou was stunned. She watched as Zhou Danhan, who was crying and begging her to find Zhou Yan'an for help, was taken away. She collapsed to the ground as if all her strength had left her. Then, she weakly took out her phone and checked the details of particularly serious online defamation cases.

Those who violate this rule shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention, public surveillance, or deprivation of political rights.

He'll serve three years in prison!

Mrs. Zhou was extremely flustered and immediately tried to call Zhou Yan'an, but she hung up as soon as she dialed the number.

The family's situation is not good now, and the company is about to be taken over by the old lady. People who used to be on good terms with the Zhou family have gradually distanced themselves from them.

At this critical juncture, where can Zhou Yan'an find connections to help Zhou Danhan avoid imprisonment?

It's simply impossible!

Just then, the phone rang; it was Zhou Yan'an calling back.

Mrs. Zhou answered the phone and, when asked what it was about, told him that Zhou Danhan had been taken away for online defamation.

Zhou Yan'an was furious: "That bastard caused trouble again! We introduced her to some useful boyfriends and she ruined them all. She can't help our family at all, she's a good-for-nothing! Now she's going to be arrested and put in jail, she's brought shame to the Zhou family!"

Mrs. Zhou had already guessed this would be the case, and upon hearing this, she didn't offer any advice, but simply asked, "Then what should we do?"

Zhou Danhan was arrested for spreading rumors about Ruan Mianmian. Since it involves Ruan Mianmian, it will be exposed by the media sooner or later, and then huge public pressure will follow. It is unknown whether the Zhou family can withstand this wave of public opinion.

"Immediately publish a statement in the newspaper to sever ties and clarify that her rumors have nothing to do with our Zhou family!" Zhou Yan'an made the decision almost without thinking. "I'll handle this; you don't need to worry about it. If any reporters interview you, just say you know nothing about it."

Mrs. Zhou nodded nervously, not caring whether Zhou Yan'an on the other end of the phone saw it or not. After a moment's hesitation, she asked, "If a reporter asks me what my opinion is on Ruan Mianmian and Dandan, what should I say?"

Zhou Yan'an remained silent.

After a long while, he slowly spoke: "If... if the reporter really asks this, you should say that because Yang En is here, we are more biased towards Zhou Danhan. In addition, after recognizing Ruan Mianmian, Dandan knows how to coax people and said bad things about Mianmian, so we are full of prejudice against her. We are sorry for her."

As he spoke, Zhou Yan'an's face burned, and each word was extremely difficult to utter, but he still managed to finish.

Without external help, in another half month, the person in charge of the company will change hands and become his biased mother.

He cares about his image, but he loves his company even more, as well as the sense of accomplishment and control he gets from running it. He doesn't want to lose these things, and he doesn't want to be looked down upon because of them.

These days, he has had enough of the cold treatment and exclusion he has received from his former friends and rivals.

Mrs. Zhou also fell silent.

Since she successfully became Mrs. Zhou, she has been a respectable person.

Because she was looked down upon before marriage and despised by Zhou Yan'an's mother, she valued her reputation even more after becoming a wealthy woman and acted with more decorum than other wives.

But now, asking her to throw away this "decency" and become an arrogant and obsequious person is something she finds hard to accept.

But she also knew that if she didn't do it, she would lose her status as a wealthy woman and could forget about maintaining a respectable life in the future.

After a long while, Mrs. Zhou finally spoke: "Tell me, why is she so lucky? Why can she get such high returns on her investments no matter what she does? Out of so many people in the world, why her?"

Even though more than a week has passed, she still feels a surge of jealousy and anger when she recalls what Ruan Mianmian said at the press conference.

The person they once discarded like trash is now someone they can no longer afford to associate with.

She couldn't accept it. In the middle of the night, she would think about it and then couldn't fall back asleep. She would toss and turn in bed, enduring the rest of the night.

After regretting it for more than a week, and seeing her family declining more and more, she couldn't help but wonder if, if they acknowledged Ruan Mianmian and apologized to her, would she, out of longing for fatherly and motherly love, shove a little something between her fingers and let them have it?

Zhou Yan'an said bitterly, "What's the point of bringing this up now?"

He had already regretted it.

That day, after watching Ruan Mianmian's interview, he regretted it!

If they had treated Ruan Mianmian well back then, they would have a daughter they could be proud of today, a daughter who would lead their family to great heights!

Unfortunately, there is no if in the world.

They really offended Ruan Mianmian.

Su Jingchen was listening to several doctors discuss how to graft skin onto him, but he was dissatisfied with every plan. Coupled with lack of sleep, he became agitated and began to attack:

"I strongly suspect that you treated my face improperly! I checked the amount of sulfuric acid used, and it's absolutely impossible for it to have ruined my face like this! It must have been because you mishandled the sulfuric acid when you rinsed it off that I suffered such extensive disfigurement!"

Upon hearing this, the doctors' faces turned grim. They immediately produced a photo of Su Jingchen when he was first admitted to the hospital: "Mr. Su, this is slander. This photo was taken when you were admitted. Before you entered our hospital, the area of ​​your facial burns was already very severe, and it has nothing to do with our hospital."
