Chapter 290 Doesn’t Your Conscience Hurt?

Yang Ligang sold his own water plant at an unexpected price.

On the way back to prepare the contract, Yang Ligang was so happy that he almost thanked Luo Xuning.

This was exactly the opposite of Yang Ligang's current state.

In an office building in Wanshan County, with the words "Xinli Handicraft Co., Ltd." hanging on the wall.

Chen Xinchao and his wife Gao Lixia were looking at the court summons on the desk and greeting Luo Xuning's eight generations of ancestors.

"The manager surnamed Luo in the scenic area is so damn abominable! I'm not done with him!"

Chen Xinchao was angry when he saw that the summons said he was suspected of "rumor-mongering" and "unfair competition" and several other crimes, but he was actually a little panicked.

"Husband, what should I do now..."

From the identity of a "victim" to a "defendant", Gao Lixia was a little panicked at this moment and had no idea.

"What else can I do? Just let it go. I want to see what Luo can do to me!"

Chen Xinchao looked like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water, and he was in a mess on the spot.

Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling--!

Chen Xinchao had just finished a sentence when the phone that was charging next to the TV rang.

He took a few steps forward to pick up the phone. After seeing the name on the caller ID was "sister", Chen Xinchao swiped his finger to answer the call.

"Hello, what's wrong, sister? Why are you calling me now?"

"Brother, the court sent a subpoena to my unit, saying that I was suspected of spreading rumors and malicious competition, and asked me to go to court next Monday. What should I do now!"

"Sister, don't be afraid, the people in the scenic spot are just bluffing, don't pay attention to them."

"Really? It's really okay, right?"

"It's okay, don't worry, you are my sister, how can I cheat you."

"Well... okay, let's do this first, I'll contact you if there is any situation."

"..."

After Chen Xinchao hung up the phone, he spat into the trash can with a sound of "Puh". He never expected that the scenic spot would turn the tables and sue him in court.

Ding-ling-ling, ding-ling--!

Less than three minutes after the phone call was hung up, another call came in, and this time the name displayed was "Second Uncle".

Chen Xinchao answered the phone, and sure enough, Second Uncle also received a court summons.

After hanging up the phone with Second Uncle, Chen Xinchao received calls from all his aunts and uncles one after another.

Everyone mentioned the same thing, and they all received court summonses.

Gao Lixia complained leisurely on the side: "How can the manager of such a big scenic spot be so serious!

We don't demand compensation, why did he sue us in court..."

Chen Xinchao's injuries were examined in several hospitals, and the results were all skin injuries, not even minor injuries.

This little thing can't be filed at all. After consulting several law firms in the city, the lawyers of the law firms did not demand compensation.

So Chen Xinchao and Gao Lixia could only swallow their anger and gave up the plan to make a big profit from the scenic spot.

Originally, they thought that the matter was over.

They never expected that this matter had just begun.

The identities of the two have changed from the initial "beneficiaries" to the current "defendants".

Chen Xinchao waved his hands in a somewhat upset manner and said: "Don't talk about this for now, you should deal with the batch of handicrafts in Luojiazhuang first, and go to make a failed inspection notice."

"Alas..." Gao Lixia sighed and went to work with a dejected look.

At the beginning, she only regretted a little bit about spreading rumors about the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area, but now she regrets it very much, and she regrets it!

At the same time, the Political and Educational Department of Wanshan County No. 1 Middle School.

Chen Xinchao's niece Fan Qi was also being scolded by the director of the Political and Educational Department.

"Do you know that you are still a student? Do you know that you are already a senior high school student?"

"It's an adult matter, why are you a child meddling in it!"

"Just get involved! If it's true, it's fine, but it turns out that you are involved in a rumor-mongering incident!"

"Now, the scenic spot has sent a subpoena to our school, you are in big trouble, you know!"

"If this crime is confirmed, let alone next year's college entrance examination, you won't even get a diploma from our school!"

"And, classmate Fan Qi, don't you feel guilty for spreading rumors about the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area like this?"

"When we went to the scenic spot for an autumn outing, who gave you bread, ham and mineral water? Who let you visit the scenic spot for free without charging a penny for tickets?"

"Let's not talk about faraway places, let's talk about nearby places. You also had a share of the apples that the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Spot sent to our school, right? You haven't finished eating them yet, right?"

"While eating the apples sent by others, you helped the evildoers and helped others to spread rumors and discredit the scenic spot. Don't you feel guilty?"

Director of the Teaching Department Liu Jinghong scolded Fan Qi for several minutes in one breath, and the little girl dared not raise her head, and her tears never stopped.

"I'm sorry, Director, I was wrong, I know I was wrong..."

"I'm sorry, Director..."

Faced with Director Liu Jinghong's well-reasoned scolding, Fan Qi had no way to defend herself and kept apologizing.

Liu Jinghong said with regret: "Classmate Fan Qi, you are not sorry for me, but for Mr. Luo who is always thinking about our school.

You are sorry for your parents who work hard to earn money to support your school.

You are sorry for yourself who works hard just to pass the college entrance examination next year."

After hearing what Liu Jinghong said, Fan Qi cried even more sadly and harder.

Knock knock knock--!

As soon as Liu Jinghong finished speaking, someone knocked on the door of the office from outside.

"Come in!"

The door of the office was pushed open, and a middle-aged man wearing black-framed glasses, a blue shirt, black trousers, and black leather shoes, who looked gentle and refined, pushed the door open.

"Zhijun, you are here." Liu Jinghong looked at the man with a look of regret.

This man was none other than Fan Qi's father Fan Zhijun, who was also a Chinese teacher at Wanshan County No. 1 Middle School.

Originally, Fan Zhijun was expected to be rated as an excellent teacher and an advanced teacher this year.

However, Liu Jinghong received news that Fan Zhijun's excellent teacher and advanced teacher were vetoed by Zhou Shumin, the current hot vice-president of No. 1 Middle School.

Moreover, Fan Zhijun will also be greeted with a very eye-catching warning.

The reason is that Fan Zhijun also participated in the rumor-mongering incident of the Black Dragon Mountain Scenic Area.

In the past two months, the reason why Zhou Shumin has become a popular leader in the leadership of No. 1 Middle School is closely related to his favorite student Luo Shuning.

Luo Shuning invited all the teachers and students of No. 1 Middle School to go on an autumn outing in the scenic area for free, and gave apples and love to all the teachers and students.

All these selfless behaviors won the praise of all the leaders of No. 1 Middle School.

When one prospers, all prosper. Luo Shuning, a former student, was praised by the leaders of the whole school, and Zhou Shumin, a former head teacher, was naturally very proud.

When one suffers, all suffer. Fan Zhijun discredited the scenic area, which was also discrediting Zhou Shumin. Zhou Shumin would naturally not let him off easily.

The reason why Fan Zhijun was denied the evaluation and advanced and given a warning was also based on the friendship between the two colleagues for many years.

Otherwise, with Zhou Shumin's current power, it is not impossible to kick him out of No. 1 Middle School.

"Director Liu, please find me." Fan Zhijun glanced at his daughter who was crying and looked at Liu Jinghong with a numb expression.

As one of the accomplices in the rumor-mongering, Fan Zhijun also received a summons from the local court.

Seeing that he was suspected of rumor-mongering and malicious competition in the summons, Fan Zhijun would be lying if he said he was not nervous.

He has been honest all his life, and he has even seriously abided by the traffic laws. He never thought that he would violate the law one day.

"Student Fan Qi, go back to the classroom to study first."

Liu Jinghong wanted to save some face for Fan Zhijun, and didn't want to scold him in front of his daughter, so he waved and sent Fan Qi back to the classroom to attend class first.

Fan Qi glanced at Liu Jinghong and Fan Zhijun, and opened the door and left crying.

"Zhijun! You are confused!" After hearing the crying in the corridor go away, Liu Jinghong's face immediately changed to an expression of disappointment.

Fan Zhijun let out a long sigh and said helplessly: "There is nothing to say about this matter. I accept any punishment given to me by the school.

I felt that this was a time bomb at the beginning, but for the sake of the family, I had to hold this time bomb in my hand."

"Alas! Zhijun, you are good in every way, but you are afraid of your wife. It is very bad to listen to your wife!"

Liu Jinghong said angrily: "Listen to the right and the wrong? Do whatever she tells you to do? After all, I am a big man and the head of the family. I have to be tough when I should be tough!"

"..." Fan Zhijun sighed again, and was speechless.

There is no love between him and his wife Chen Xinmei. The reason why they are still together is entirely for their daughter Fan Qi.

If they were not afraid that their divorce would affect Fan Qi's mood and cause her to fail the college entrance examination, Fan Zhijun and Chen Xinmei would have gone to the Civil Affairs Bureau to handle the divorce procedures.

As early as two years ago, the two had a legendary formal marriage.

This rumor-mongering incident once again confirmed Fan Zhijun's idea of ​​divorcing Chen Xinmei.

After Liu Jinghong scolded him for more than ten minutes, Fan Zhijun pushed the door and walked out of the political and educational department with his head down.

After Fan Zhijun accepted the criticism and returned to his office, his colleagues looked at him with different eyes.

Some felt sorry for him, some gloated, and some simply watched the fun.

Fan Zhijun sat in his seat for more than half an hour. Although he didn't say a word, he thought about a lot of things in his mind.

From the distribution of assets after divorce and the custody of his daughter to how to explain his divorce to his parents and how to face the rumors of his colleagues, etc., etc.

After thinking for more than an hour, Fan Zhijun felt that he had thought it through, so he stood up and walked out of the office door and came to the school playground alone.

Finding an unobtrusive corner on the playground, Fan Zhijun first took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it and took a few deep puffs, then took out his mobile phone, found the number of "Chen Xinmei" and dialed it.

Beep, beep--!

The phone rang a few times before it was connected, and Chen Xinmei's somewhat impatient voice came from the other side.

"Fan Zhijun, what are you doing! You are idle in the broad daylight! Why are you calling for nothing? The phone bill is high, right? Why don't you pay me some fees!"

Chen Xinmei received the court summons in the morning and was in a bad mood. After receiving Fan Zhijun's call, she naturally had no good temper and habitually regarded him as a trash can to vent negative emotions.

"Chen Xinmei, go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to divorce tomorrow." After saying this, Fan Zhijun suddenly felt like a big stone was moved away from his heart, and he felt a lot more relaxed.

This rumor incident has affected his daughter. According to Director Liu Jinghong, if the scenic spot pursues the responsibility to the end, Fan Qi is very likely to miss the college entrance examination.

So, Fan Zhijun thought again and again, since the rumor-mongering incident has had such a great impact on his daughter, the impact of divorce is not a big deal.

It is better to take the opportunity to cut off all ties and put an end to it.

"Fan Zhijun, what did you say? You want to divorce me?"

Chen Xinmei was very surprised when she heard Fan Zhijun's words, so much so that she even suspected that she had heard it wrong.

In the past, Chen Xinmei took the initiative to bring up the matter of "divorce", and Fan Zhijun always persuaded and coaxed her, and finally relied on handing over the monthly salary to make her change her mind and temporarily give up the idea of ​​divorce.

Today, Fan Zhijun took the initiative to say that he wanted to "divorce", which was too abnormal.

"Yes, divorce." Fan Zhijun's tone was very firm.

Chen Xinmei said angrily: "Mr. Fan, this is what you said! Don't regret it!"

If it was before, after hearing Chen Xinmei's words, Fan Zhijun would definitely give in on the spot and beg Chen Xinmei not to divorce him for the sake of his daughter.

But today, Fan Zhijun decided to be tough to the end. He really couldn't have such a wife who cheated his father anymore! Whoever wants it can go!

"Yes, I said it. I will ask for leave from the school tomorrow. Let's meet at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau. Remember to bring your mask and ID card."

Fan Zhijun said the last sentence, without giving Chen Xinmei a chance to refute, and hung up the phone.

After the call, Fan Zhijun finished the cigarette in his hand and turned to walk towards the school entrance.

Also affected by the rumor-mongering incident was Gao Ming, a student studying in the Law Department of Shijiazhuang Political and Legal University.

Gao Ming is Gao Lixia's younger brother and Chen Xinchao's brother-in-law. He also forwarded various videos posted by Gao Lixia on WeChat Moments and Kuaishou platforms.

After all, it was his own sister and brother-in-law who were in trouble, so he would definitely help his relatives instead of helping them.

Originally, Gao Ming thought that the fact that Gu Hongfei had taken away his internship at Zhuoye Group last night was the most unlucky thing for him recently.

Never expected that there would be a lawsuit waiting for him later.

"Student Gao Ming, we need you to explain the situation of this subpoena?"

A vice president in charge of discipline at Shizhou City University of Political Science and Law called Gao Ming to his office and questioned him with the subpoena that the court asked the school to hand over to Gao Ming.

"Principal Zhao, this is what happened..."

Gao Ming did not dare to hide anything and told the president surnamed Zhao everything that happened.

"Principal Zhao, I was confused at the time and did not expect the matter to become so serious. Please give me another chance."

Gao Ming's attitude was very humble, almost begging. He was at the graduation stage. If this matter was exaggerated, his graduation certificate would most likely not be issued.

"Gao Ming, you are a law student! What have you learned in four years of college? You are about to graduate, have you given back everything you have learned to your teacher?"

After listening to Gao Ming's narration, Zhao Liqiang first scolded him a few times to express his dissatisfaction, and then said tactfully: "You don't have to go to class these days, wait for the school's notice! And..."

Zhao Liqiang scolded Gao Ming for ten minutes in one breath, and then let him go.

After Gao Ming left, he looked up at the sky and felt that his life was a lot bleaker.

According to the original script, he should have entered the legal department of Zhuoye Group for internship.

After the internship, he officially became a regular employee, and then with the help of his cousin, he got a position in the company and earned three or five hundred thousand a year.

Now, because of forwarding a short video, his life trajectory has completely changed.
