Su Xiaocai sat quietly watching how they would try to defend themselves.
Her gaze swept over Mijiali, and she knew that some people were petty. If you donāt eliminate the hidden dangers, things like today will happen.
Just as well, for her, rumors are best resolved quickly.
"I didnāt slander you. Iām from the student council, and the points are distributed through us every day. You just started school and already have almost a hundred more points than others. Isnāt the evidence obvious?"
Wu Qingqing couldnāt hold back and burst out laughing, "Hahaha, your jealous face is really ugly."
The other person turned red again. He was relatively older, at twenty-five, but his thinking was still at an elementary level.
"Did I say anything wrong? I brought this up for the fair and just treatment of all students." The student council has explicit rules prohibiting internal members from revealing point details casually.
Just like how much wealth your family has, outsiders can only guess and estimate. If an internal person talks about it, it violates privacy.
He took such a big risk to expose this, so the principal should give him an explanation, right?
He didnāt believe that a sixteen-year-old freshman could make a contribution worthy of so many points.
The principal, troubled, tugged at his chin stubble, his cheekbones looking as if they had sagged more, revealing a sense of indescribable weariness.
Every year there are bizarre students, brilliant in logic during studies but utterly clueless about lifeās details.
He didnāt feel like explaining at all.
Wu Qingqing acknowledged, "Points are sent to personal accounts. Even if someone were greedy for points, they wouldnāt be this stupid."
Xing Miao also spoke up, "Caicaiās points were earned through her abilities, witnessed by the principal, teachers, and us. Stop flaunting your so-called evidence tainted with malicious speculation. Iām beginning to doubt whether youāre even in the same school."
The person quickly bowed his head, "Well... well, I actually didnāt mean to." He was from the Agricultural Research Institute, shared a dormitory with Shou Xin, and had heard Shou Xin badmouth Su Xiaocai so much that, over time, he also grew to dislike her.
He found her annoying everywhere, especially seeing her so at ease in front of the professors, which increased his aversion.
But being weak-minded, when Wu Qingqing and Xing Miao criticized him with reasoning and evidence, he felt maybe it was his fault.
Su Xiaocai found it hard to describe this personās character. As soon as anyone mentioned anything bad about her, he might relapse into his old ways.
She didnāt accept insincere apologies and turned to ask Lawyer Zhang, "If I call the police, what kind of punishment will they face?"
Zhang Rui Kai: "Our technicians just helped check, and the rumors have been forwarded over five hundred times, with viewership exceeding twenty thousand. Moreover, the instigator actively forwarded them. The evidence for defamation is complete, and if you report it, the main offender faces up to six years in prison. I will also file a lawsuit here, demanding compensation for the victimās reputational damage."
If the schoolās matters alarm the police, the nature of the situation changes.
Regardless of the studentsā right or wrong, the school must take some responsibility.
If unnecessary, Su Xiaocai didnāt want the principal to be blamed. After all, it was a few studentsā spontaneous verbal violence, and she, as the main character, hadnāt even noticed. Even if the principal had three heads and six arms, he couldnāt manage everything.
The five students were scared upon hearing this.
They all understood that the rumors originated from their fabrications, and seeing Su Xiaocai get along well with the professors made them uncomfortable.
Everyone was a freshman, so why did she have good relations with the professors and receive benefits?
They tried to ingratiate themselves with the professors, but the professors ignored them.
The flame of jealousy burned in their hearts, prompting them to come up with ways to defame, as an outlet for their dissatisfaction.
They didnāt want to go to jail, nor did they want to be expelled.
They only hoped for Su Xiaocaiās misconduct to be confirmed.
Mijiali shook off Miās motherās hand and produced what she called hard evidence.
"Before school started, you had complete farming machinery and custom-made robots. How could someone from Garbage Star have so much money?"
"Look at this." Mijiali pulled a photo from her pocket and placed it in front of the live broadcaster, "Before school started, you often went outside, and at night you were returned in luxury cars. Do you dare say you didnāt sell yourself to make money?"
Su Xiaocai moved swiftly, and before anyone could react, she slapped her.
"How dare you hit me? You, a person who sells herself..."
Before the words were finished, she was slapped again.
"You hit me, you hit me, I will sue you. Everyone in the live stream saw it."
Mijaliās mother rushed over to block Mijiali, "What are you doing? What are you doing? Is there no law? How can you just hit people?"
