Chapter 60 Ending, Never Forgive
The two awakeners quickly helped Zhou Botong up.
After a long while, Zhou Botong finally regained consciousness. He looked at the two Awakened people beside him, sighed and said, "Brother Zhu, Brother Zhao, tell me, how do I usually treat you?"
The two Awakened looked at each other. This sentence...a little familiar.
In ancient costume dramas, when an emperor usually asks someone "How do I treat you", it is the rhythm of letting the other party die. The translation is: I usually eat my food and drink mine, but now the situation is critical, please send me to death/work your life/take the blame for me!
Lao Zhao sighed and said, "Brother Zhou, we usually take care of you, but we really can't help with this."
Old Zhu said with concern: "Yes, murdering the Awakened is a serious crime. The key is to have evidence, and we are not easy to talk about."
Seeing that the two did not follow the routine, Zhou Botong let out a sigh of relief: "I didn't ask you to save me, but to save my son! The matter of instructing Lao Jiao to assassinate Bai Xiaowen was done by me, not my son. I beg you two. This younger brother helps my elder brother, don't let the Zhou family be the last!"
Saying that, Zhou Botong was about to kneel.
The two hurriedly supported Zhou Botong.
Lao Zhu said: "This matter can be handled. You are responsible for all the charges of assassinating Bai Xiaowen. Zhou Yi is at best a non-reporter, and the circumstances are minor. In addition, he is under the age of 18. Lao Zhao and I applied for a pardon and handed in a Just money."
After thinking for a while, Lao Zhu continued: "The previous slander crime was a bit troublesome. The object of slander was the Awakened and it caused a lot of waves. If Bai Xiaowen sticks to it, even if Zhou Yi is a minor, he may be sentenced. About three years."
Originally, with Zhou Botong's contacts and financial resources, Zhou Yi's defamation crime was nothing, and he could get away with a mental disorder certificate. But now that Zhou Botong is unable to protect himself, which hospital would be willing to carry this thunder?
Zhou Botong loosened his tie, took a breath and said, "I've already figured out a way out for the crime of libel. It's Wu Xiaoyan's idea to post on the Internet to smear black and white Xiaowen. My son was at most abetted!"
Lao Zhu nodded and said, "That's right, this trick works, but it needs to be done."
Zhou Botong took another look at the photo at the beginning of the post. Zhou Yi, who was hanging on the flagpole, sighed and said, "Two brothers, please go and bring Zhou Yi back first... I want to see him one last time."
The two left, and Zhou Botong started flipping through the address book to make calls.
Made a few calls, either no one answered or just hung up.
Zhou Botong's face was a little ugly. Finally, he turned to a number, took a deep breath, and clicked to dial.
The phone was connected, and a slightly lazy voice came: "Hello, Lao Zhou?"
Zhou Botong said respectfully: "President Liu, I am Zhou Botong. I have decided to transfer all the shares of Botong Pharmaceutical under my name to Guanghui Pharmaceutical under your name for free."
"That is to say, if I sign a letter, I can acquire Broadcom Pharmaceuticals?" President Liu smiled in a lazy voice, "Old Zhou, this pie is a bit hot. To tell you the truth, this time you are at least a lifetime employee. , no one can save you, neither can I. If you want to blame it, blame your stupid son."
Zhou Botong hurriedly said: "President Liu, you have misunderstood. I know that the evidence is solid and there is no possibility of exoneration."
"Oh? Then what are your conditions?"
"I hope that my son Zhou Yi can be added to the list of 'Families of Martyrs' of the Glorious Guild!" Zhou Botong gritted his teeth and said, "Botong Pharmaceutical has one billion assets and only buys one quota. President Liu nodded, and I will sign the contract immediately! "
On the other end of the phone, President Liu chuckled and said, "Old Zhou, you have a good plan. Unfortunately, no."
Zhou Botong's breath was stagnant for a while, only to hear President Liu say slowly: "How much water is in Botong Pharmaceutical's one billion assets, do you think I don't know? The newspaper also boasted that your annual profit is several hundred million, so you are confused. Ordinary people who don't know the inside story... take a step back and say,
Even if Broadcom is worth so much money, it is impossible for me to put your son on the list of family members of martyrs! Don't say I'm just a vice president, even the president wouldn't dare to do this. "
Speaking of this, President Liu's words changed: "Don't you just want your son to have shelter? Why don't you..."
...
Zhou Botong's downfall was faster than Bai Xiaowen expected.
On the night the video evidence of the virtual community was released, Zhou Botong turned himself in and took the charge. Because of the lenient sentencing for surrendering himself and the mediation of big figures, Zhou Botong was finally sentenced to life imprisonment without commutation or parole.
Bai Xiaowen was quite satisfied with this result.
The only thing that made Bai Xiaowen unhappy was that Zhou Yi escaped.
However, after the flagpole was hoisted, Zhou Yi and Wu Xiaoyan were ungrateful, instructing the little sister to oppress the sister of Bai Xiaowen, the savior, and smearing black and white Xiaowen. The incident has spread all over the campus, and even spread to surrounding schools. Zhou Yi was dismissed by the school and left Chihuo No.1 Middle School.
To Bai Xiaowen's surprise, the Zhou family put all the charges of defamation on Wu Xiaoyan.
Wu Xiaoyan tried to defend herself, but she used Wu Xiaoyan's mobile phone to take photos and record videos, which she couldn't deny. Coupled with the fact that last week's family's money was in place, Wu Xiaoyan had to carry the blame.
Wu Xiaoyan's family contacted Bai Xiaowen through various channels. Wu Xiaoyan cried and asked Bai Xiaowen to write a letter of understanding for her, so that she could be exempted from criminal responsibility.
However, despite her crying pear blossoms and rain, Bai Xiaowen never agreed.
"Bai Xiaowen, you are so heartless, my daughter has ruined her life!" Wu Xiaoyan's family was very angry.
Bai Xiaowen was unmoved, got up and left. What awaits Wu Xiaoyan will be two years in prison.
Xiaojun couldn't bear it: "Brother, Wu Xiaoyan is also very pitiful. After two years in prison, there will be a lifetime of stains on the file."
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said, "Have you ever thought that if I were an ordinary person, if I was framed like this by her, would I also go to prison and be unable to turn over in my life?"
Xiaojun nodded.
"So, I will never forgive," Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "Forgiveness is the virtue of a saint, but unfortunately I am not a saint. In fact, I am very selfish, as long as the people who care about me and the people I care about live well. Whoever disturbs this simple happiness is my enemy."
"Play, beat, beat..." The phone rang.
Bai Xiaowen answered the phone, and it was Li Chengbin, the head of the personnel department, who called.
"Zhou Yi's whereabouts have been found out and he went to Jinghai District. However, he joined the youth training camp of the Guanghui Guild."
"When did the Guanghui Guild have a relationship with the Zhou family?" Bai Xiaowen frowned. This guild is very famous, and it is one of the most promising guilds in China in recent years to break into the first division.
Li Chengbin said: "Broadcom Pharmaceutical was acquired by Guanghui Pharmaceutical. I guess, this should be a quid pro quo. Don't deal with Zhou Yi for the time being, you can't stay in the youth training camp for a lifetime, and if you fail the spiritual world test three times, you will directly disuse."
"I understand. I'm not impulsive."
Bai Xiaowen didn't let Zhou Yi's plan go before, but since Zhou Botong found a backer for his son, Bai Xiaowen didn't need to take the risk of offending the Glory Guild to kill Zhou Yi. Besides, with Zhou Yi's IQ, it is difficult to make a name for himself.
Li Chengbin finally said: "The president is looking for you, it seems that there is something important. If you have time, come to the guild as soon as possible."
