Ready

I just love to be serious!

How did this turn around so quickly? This Cheng Wei really caused me a lot of trouble.

At around 6:30 PM, Xiao Feng had just returned home after dealing with the compensation for her dismissal from the TV station.

Then, after resting for a while, she wanted to check the latest comments on her phone, but found that her account had been muted, and the video she posted this morning had been taken down due to violations!

So she quickly searched and discovered that the police station had already investigated the entire matter and released an announcement.

This made her feel very dissatisfied with Cheng Wei! She had good intentions, so why did Cheng Wei deceive her?

Especially since it cost her her job!

Bang bang bang! Several knocks sounded at the door.

Xiao Feng approached the door, puzzled, and asked, "Who is it?"

"Police. We received a report that you were spreading rumors and slandering others online, so we're here to understand the situation. Please open the door first," the person outside said.

Xiao Feng opened the door and saw Police Officers in uniform.

"Um, Police Officer, my video has already been taken down by the platform, and I didn't know the truth; I was used. So I shouldn't be in serious trouble, right?"

"That depends on the other party's demands. If they choose to forgive you, then there's no problem," the Police Officer said.

This made Xiao Feng breathe a sigh of relief.

She had learned Zhou Cheng's identity when she returned to the TV station yesterday. At first, she didn't dare to post, but then she thought that she was not afraid of power or influential families, and she would definitely get everyone's support.

So, under this self-righteous fantasy, she posted the video.

Now, hearing the Police Officer say this,

she thought again that an important figure like Zhou Cheng wouldn't bother with her.

However, her idea was clearly going to fall through.

"Then, will I be able to see Zhou Cheng later? I can apologize to him in person and ask for his forgiveness."

Xiao Feng said, with a hint of expectation in her words.

It's always like this in TV dramas: a Overbearing CEO CEO meets an ordinary Female Protagonist, they start off on the wrong foot, and then the CEO is attracted by the Female Protagonist's fearlessness of power and influential families.

After a series of misunderstandings, they eventually get together.

If it were the same for her and Second Young Master Zhou, wouldn't she be able to become the CEO's wife?

How romantic and wonderful that would be.

"No need. Let me introduce myself. I am Zhang Weida, Deputy Minister of the Legal Department of Chenyang Group, and also Zhou Cheng's full-time lawyer. So I will fully handle this matter on his behalf."

After Xiao Feng finished speaking, Zhang Weida, who had come with the Police Officers, immediately introduced himself.

He looked at Xiao Feng confidently, a faint smile on his lips. He loved such serious cases.

Previously, he was just an ordinary lawyer in the Chenyang Group's legal department. Unexpectedly, in these past few days, Zhou Cheng had promoted him directly to the position of Deputy Minister, specializing in handling lawsuits for Zhou Cheng.

This made him feel as if he had suddenly found a soulmate in life.

So he decided to do his best to fight every lawsuit for Zhou Cheng.

"You?" Xiao Feng sized up Zhang Weida.

Although not ugly, he was far inferior compared to Zhou Cheng.

"That's right." Zhang Weida nodded.

"Then will I be able to see Zhou Cheng later?"

"Second Young Master Zhou is very busy every day. Since he has fully entrusted me to handle this, of course you won't see him!"

Zhang Weida frowned slightly. What was this young lady thinking?

"This..." Xiao Feng frowned slightly. How was this different from the script she had just imagined?

The CEOs in TV dramas weren't like this.

"Let's go to the police station for mediation first," the Police Officer said.

A moment later, Zhang Weida and Xiao Feng sat in the police station's mediation room.

As for Zhou Cheng, he had already left work. The Third Public Security Team was responsible for this matter.

Mediation was a necessary procedure, and Zhang Weida knew that.

However, he also knew Zhou Cheng's intentions, so he immediately stated:

"On behalf of my client, I reject any mediation!"

Zhang Weida's words directly shattered Xiao Feng's dreams, making her frown deeply. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.

"I really didn't mean it. I was also deceived by Cheng Wei, thinking she was really scammed out of medical expenses." Xiao Feng seemed very anxious at this moment.

However, Zhang Weida showed no emotion, still maintaining a resolute and serious demeanor.

"You were indeed deceived by Cheng Wei, but it's also your fault for taking sides without understanding the truth, especially the video from this morning. That video couldn't have been filmed automatically, could it?"

"You were fired by the TV station because my client complained about you yesterday, so you held a grudge and recorded the video to spread rumors, didn't you?"

"In short, our side does not accept any mediation!" Zhang Weida said.

Although being serious, the police station would at most detain Xiao Feng for about a week, but as Zhou Cheng told him, he was someone who loved to be serious!

"Where is Zhou Cheng, Second Young Master Zhou? I want to see him. He definitely won't be so serious. Tell him that as long as he forgives me and lets me go back to work at the TV station, I'll do anything, whatever he wants..."

Xiao Feng said anxiously.

"Don't even think about it. Second Young Master Zhou specifically instructed me not to accept any mediation," Zhang Weida said.

"Um, Lawyer Zhang, according to the laws of Xia Country, even if mediation is not accepted, she would at most be detained for about five to ten days." The Police Officer moderating the mediation reminded Zhang Weida.

In his opinion, such a matter wasn't a big deal. As long as she deleted the video and apologized, it shouldn't be pursued so forcefully.

Moreover, Zhou Cheng had always been amiable and generous at the police station, treating people without any airs of a young master from an influential Family. He shouldn't be so insistent on such a small matter.

"My client specifically said that even a five-day detention is unacceptable for mediation. He just likes to be serious!" Zhang Weida stated firmly.

These words completely extinguished Xiao Feng's hope.

In her heart, she cursed Cheng Wei and those Overbearing CEO idol dramas a thousand times!

Who said that going against a Overbearing CEO would attract their attention and lead to them getting together?

Why was she directly detained, and with a firm refusal to mediate???

The mediation quickly ended, and Xiao Feng was immediately detained.

Seven days, neither painful nor itchy, just a lesson for her... Meanwhile.

Zhou Cheng had already left work and returned to the Manor, changing into the suit he had prepared, ready to go to the Liu Family Manor with Zhou Feiyu!

The Liu Family is the head of the Eight Great Families of Modu. Excluding those hidden influential families in Modu, they are the largest and have the most Family assets on the surface!

Zhou Wanyu also changed into a beautiful dress, determined to go with Zhou Cheng and the others!

Zhou Feiyu thought there might be important matters tonight, so he didn't agree.

But she directly pestered Zhou Cheng.

"Qin Ming can go, so why can't I?"

"Alright, go then, but don't cause trouble or act foolishly," Zhou Cheng nodded and said.
