Chapter 1319: Hitting Zhao Yujing's Achilles' Heel
Zhao Yujing couldn't figure it out, and at this time, there was no time for him to think too much.
Because the shouting outside was getting louder and louder; if he didn't respond, his prestige among the students would be gone.
But if he responded, what should he say? Zhou Andong's several questions hit his Achilles' heel completely.
Because Zhou Andong's article was based on history; they were all things that had happened, and he couldn't deny them.
Zhao Yujing's face became gloomier and gloomier; he wished he could peel Zhou Andong's skin, pull out his tendons, and boil his oil to light a lamp.
I haven't offended you, have I? Why are you going against me?
"Bang, bang, bang..."
The office door was knocked heavily, and Zhao Yujing shouted in a deep voice: "Come in!"
The office door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man walked in: "Professor Zhao, the students outside are gathering more and more; I'm afraid there will be problems. The school office called and asked you to solve it as soon as possible."
Zhao Yujing said with dissatisfaction: "Why didn't the school office call me directly?"
"It didn't get through." The middle-aged man turned and left: "I've already notified you; you handle it yourself."
Zhao Yujing's prestige was high, and he was also very overbearing; now that there was a problem, everyone around was avoiding him.
Especially since the International Republican Institute had been unmasked by Zhou Andong, regardless of whether that Poison Pill Plan was true or not,
now no one would be stupid enough to get close to Zhao Yujing; if they got stuck with a pile of shit, it would be too damn disgusting.
Watching the middle-aged man leave, a murderous aura flashed in Zhao Yujing's eyes, and then he picked up the phone on the desk; it turned out to be empty.
The middle-aged man had just left when the office door was knocked again, and before Zhao Yujing could speak,
the door opened, and seven people walked in one after another, their expressions very panicked and uneasy.
Of the two million US dollars donated by the International Republican Institute to the Economic Research Institute of the College of Agriculture, Zhao Yujing took one-fifth, and the rest was taken by these seven people.
"Professor Zhao, what should we do now?"
The one speaking was about fifty years old, his head shiny, with only a few hairs left on the back of his head.
"Right!" Another person said anxiously: "Zhou Andong exposed the International Republican Institute and the Poison Pill Plan. Once the school investigates, we'll all be finished."
"What are you afraid of?" Zhao Yujing said with great disdain: "Just based on Zhou Andong's few words without evidence, the school can investigate us?"
"But!" A middle-aged man said: "Zhou Andong's article was published in the People's Daily; the school can't not take it seriously."
"So what if they take it seriously?" Zhao Yujing sneered: "Where is the evidence? As long as we don't admit it, the school can't find a fart."
Several people heard this and felt it made a lot of sense; the clouds of worry on their faces cleared, and everyone's back straightened involuntarily.
"Zhou Andong is slandering us like this; it absolutely cannot be left like this."
"Right, framing us without evidence and ruining our reputation; he must be made to pay the price."
"And he must apologize in the People's Daily for a month to restore our reputation."
"..."
Several people talked at once, their faces full of righteous indignation, looking as aggrieved as could be.
Zhao Yujing's eyes moved; the idea of suing Zhou Andong was not bad; this way, the water could be muddied.
By the time public opinion rose, the public would soon forget Zhou Andong's article.
Thinking of this, a very confident aura rose on Zhao Yujing, and he turned and walked out.
"Professor Zhao, where are you going?" the bald man asked hurriedly.
Zhao Yujing sighed: "So many students, incited by Zhou Andong's article, ran here to gather. I have to go out and see; if something happens, I won't have peace of mind for the rest of my life."
"Right, right, right!" The bald man nodded vigorously, very moved: "It's still Professor Zhao who considers things thoroughly; it was us who were not thoughtful."
"We'll go out and see too." The middle-aged man said: "Although the students outside might not have taken my class, as teachers of the school, they are all my students; I can't let the students be harmed because of Zhou Andong's shamelessness."
The others echoed and followed him out.
At this time, there were two or three hundred students gathered outside, one by one raising their fists and shouting for Zhao Yujing to come out and answer.
Of course, a portion of them supported Zhao Yujing, but more were against Zhao Yujing.
Just under a tree not far away stood two old men, looking ruddy and full of life.
"Old Qu, this shameless villain Zhao Yujing, fishing for fame and compliments, has really fallen this time."
Old Qu said with a smile: "Old Liang, tonight we should drink a big cup."
Old Liang nodded: "This really should be celebrated."
Old Qu said with great emotion: "If Zhou Andong were here, I would definitely have a good drink with him, not stopping until we're drunk."
Old Liang was also full of regret: "I don't know if there will be a chance to drink with Zhou Andong in the future."
"Hey!" Old Qu said: "Zhao Yujing actually came out; isn't he afraid of being beaten to death by the students?"
Old Liang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked over: "It's not just Zhao Yujing; look, a nest of rats and snakes has all come out."
"What are they going to do?" Old Qu frowned: "Do they really dare to answer Zhou Andong's several questions?"
"Hmph!" Old Liang snorted coldly: "Let's go over and see."
The two stepped over; at this time, the students also quieted down, looking up at Zhao Yujing and the others standing on the steps.
"Students, you are all in university, receiving higher education, and are all elites of future society."
Zhao Yujing smiled, looking at the sea of heads in front of him, his tone very gentle.
"You are all high-IQ talents; how can you not have any ability to distinguish and be deceived by Zhou Andong's nonsensical article? What Poison Pill Plan, what I was bought and became a traitor.
This is slander, the greatest insult to my personality. I love our country, love our nation, and love all people in the world who love peace.
And Zhou Andong, he has always claimed to be patriotic, but in my view, that is not patriotism, but narrow nationalism. Perhaps he doesn't even know the difference between narrow nationalism and patriotism.
Below, I will tell you: narrow nationalism is the most extreme; to show loyalty and identification with one's own nation, one doesn't hesitate to damage the interests of other nations by various means, most easily developing into national chauvinism and revanchism.
Such people always like to demonstrate, boycott foreign products, and despise or hate foreigners. They are often short-sighted, narrow-minded, and either blindly arrogant or extremely inferior, or both."
