Chapter 2144: You Don't Understand My Good Intentions At All
Because he had arrived in such a rush, the old professor had no idea what had just happened.
But the old professor knew that before him lay an excellent opportunity to completely ruin these few young people!
Since the opportunity was so rare, the old professor naturally had to grasp it firmly.
He took a deep breath, then began to perform with a sobbing tone: "Everyone, please calm down. Do not go head-to-head with power and influence just because of our affairs!"
After his words fell, no one at the scene gave a response.
And the old professor, intoxicated by his own performance, did not notice anything amiss.
His performance continued.
This time, he faced Qingkong and Su Kexuan, lecturing them with a look of righteous indignation: "Let these young people who harbor justice go! If you have any grievances, come at me! In any case, this is not the first day I have witnessed your sordid tactics!"
Qingkong and Su Kexuan did not speak either.
The way they looked at the old professor was as if they were looking at a clown.
This made the old professor very frustrated.
He still wanted to turn his head to incite the emotions of the others.
Yet, the moment he turned, he discovered that the gazes of the crowd behind him were the same as those of Qingkong and Su Kexuan...
At this very moment, a chill crept up the old professor's spine.
He finally discovered... the situation was not right!
Xiao Qian also discovered that something was wrong.
She tugged on the old professor's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "What is going on here?"
"I don't know. Could it be... that I spoke with such confidence just after being discharged from the hospital, and it aroused everyone's suspicion?"
The old professor felt his reasoning was perfectly correct.
He rolled his eyes and prepared to feign physical exhaustion and collapse onto the ground.
However, just a second before the professor was about to act, Qingkong broadcast that piece of evidence again.
The slap in the face came too suddenly and too directly.
The grandfather and granddaughter were both shocked!
Especially Xiao Qian; she felt her face being rubbed into the ground by Qingkong in front of everyone!
The old man muttered, "This thing... must be fake!"
"My recording has already been posted online; anyone with doubts can verify it."
Xiao Qian looked foolish due to being overly shocked.
Hearing Qingkong's words, she finally came to her senses, but her voice was very sharp: "You still have a recording!?"
"Yes, quite a surprise, isn't it?"
It was more than just a surprise...
Xiao Qian simply wanted to kill to silence the witness!
But at this very moment, it was too late to silence anyone!
Xiao Qian clenched her hands tightly and condemned Qingkong from another angle: "Do you have any professional ethics? Why record at a photo shoot site!"
"Which rule prohibits recording?"
"Then, you—you must have obtained permission!"
"Your talent agency gave permission."
"Impossible!"
"Is that so? Then you are free to go and ask."
Xiao Qian could go and ask.
But the result...
Might not be what she wanted to see.
Before today, Xiao Qian's talent agency had always adopted a policy of smoothing things over to handle disputes.
But once the key evidence was exposed, Xiao Qian's reputation was finished.
Her career had also reached its end.
To avoid being implicated by Xiao Qian, the agency would certainly tell the truth and no longer shield her...
Thinking of this, Xiao Qian's breathing became rapid.
The look she gave Qingkong was full of hatred.
And her behavior was a complete confession of guilt.
The voices of criticism from the crowd surged toward her like a tide, wave after wave.
How could Xiao Qian withstand such a scene?
She no longer had the energy to be angry and hid directly in the old professor's arms, trembling with fear.
This made the old professor's heart ache terribly.
He shouted wildly: "Do not be deceived by them; this is all the operation of capital!"
"Don't blame everything on capital!"
A calm and firm voice came from behind the crowd.
The crowd turned to look.
They saw Jiang Mobai walking slowly through the crowd.
He did not look at the others, but stared straight at the old professor.
Then he said with a half-smile: "If I really used the power of capital, do you think you could have jumped around for this long? But there is one thing you said correctly."
"What?"
"My family's legal team is truly formidable!"
Jiang Mobai's meaning was very clear.
He was going to play for real!
This made the professor's pupils constrict.
Jiang Mobai spoke again: "You have sought out many students to make peace with you. But there is one you will never be able to invite."
The old professor was about to open his mouth to speak.
But he suddenly thought of something, swallowed the words that had reached his lips, and became terrified and uneasy.
Someone among the onlookers felt curious and asked, "Why are you being so absolute?"
"Because that student has already passed away, and the cause of death was..."
Before Jiang Mobai could finish his explanation, the old professor roared first: "The deceased is gone; is it necessary for you to disturb her peace for your own selfish interests!"
The old professor's expression was ferocious, and his silver-white hair was disheveled.
Jiang Mobai raised an eyebrow and looked over, a smile playing on his lips: "What are you afraid of?"
"I am not afraid!"
"So open and honest... My legal team has already accepted the commission from the student's family to initiate a lawsuit against you; I hope you can remain this open and honest."
This light, airy sentence from Jiang Mobai caused the breath in the old professor's chest to dissipate.
He knew that the Li Family was not playing games with him.
He also knew what he was about to face.
That was not something he could just fool his way through by acting or playing the victim...
Everything was over!
Having lost his conviction, the old professor collapsed onto the ground, looking utterly devastated.
The criticisms from the onlookers immediately swept in.
And Xiao Qian, who should have been standing by the old professor's side to face the storm together, actually snuck away while no one was paying attention to her!
Qingkong saw the entire process of Xiao Qian sneaking away.
He did not stop her.
A trace of mockery even flashed across the depths of his eyes.
Shifting his gaze, Qingkong met Jiang Mobai's eyes.
There was no expression on Jiang Mobai's face.
He gave Qingkong a deep look, then turned and walked away.
Jiang Mobai had walked as fast as he could.
But in the end, he could not compare to Qingkong.
He blocked Jiang Mobai and said excitedly, "We finally took them down, let's celebrate!"
Compared to Qingkong's relaxed and cheerful demeanor, Jiang Mobai's expression was somewhat cold.
He pushed away Qingkong's arm and said through gritted teeth, "Celebrate what? Celebrate the fact that you've been playing me for a fool the whole time!"
"Oh, I did this for your own good!"
"Bullshit!"
"Don't be so vulgar!"
After saying this, Qingkong turned his head to look behind him.
Seeing that Su Kexuan was still presiding over the situation and was far away from them, he turned his head back to explain to Jiang Mobai: "Let me ask you, didn't this incident give you many more opportunities to interact with Su Kexuan?"
"So what if it did?"
"If it weren't for these opportunities, would you be able to meet often, eat together, and discuss things with each other?"
"... That would indeed be unlikely."
"Exactly, so I am using my own reputation to pave the way for the relationship between the two of you! Not only do you not understand my good intentions, but you even question me..."
